Ruby and my teamwork was not great then. She jumped in front of me after I had already released the Dust, I had to redirect it. The forest suffered. To be fair, it probably helped us get out of being surrounded by at least 10 Beowolves which.. back then was a bit of an issue, particularly given our inability to work together back then.
With.. waffles, I suppose. [ He's so weird. She parks her car and gets out. She saw him on her way by, but there wasn't a spot to park. She crosses her arms and watches him for a brief moment, taking in the situation. ]
On the side, not part of the waffles, you dope. Lean back as far as you can without falling over. They sell waffles and fried chicken, why not waffles and fried tofu?
[ She's going tog et as close to his legs as possible so she doesn't bust it open and knock him on his ass, but if he doesn't lean back she's going to have her sword like at his dick and she doesn't think he'd appreciate that. ]
[ Sharp and hot. Weiss raises Myrtenaster up and uses her full body weight to slam the tip down and through the ice, probably a couple of inches before either of his legs in the middle, then slowly lets some of the red dust trickle out so it heats up her sword rather than causes a fire. Very rapidly, it starts to melt and Weiss slowly starts to move Myrtenaster through the ice and around his legs. She doesn't go all the way down to his legs, just enough that it looks like the ice has weakened significantly, then she turns back and goes around the other side before pulling it out and backing up. ]
Okay, stand up straight and kick your feet a few times, it should break up.
It's grey and looks nothing like food. You don't think it does?
[Most of his effort is made toward staying calm and keeping his balance and not screwing it up for Weiss. He flinches when he first hears the slam and stands back up to follow her directions.
He kicks the ice way too hard, a few chunks flying.]
Thanks.
[He's annoyed with himself but he's trying not to show it. He withdraws the rest of the Dust he...borrowed, offering it to her.]
I'm going to have to take you out for some real food one of these days. Fried tofu isn't gray, it's golden on the outside and a pure white on the inside. If your tofu is gray, it's probably spoiled.
[ She takes the ice, then takes about ten steps backward, then looks at Jaune. ]
Take two steps to the left and stand still.
[ She's turning the revolver on Myrtenaster to green. ]
I'm braci--[That's definitely the wind in his face and a stronger attack than what he was thinking. Caught off guard, he's nearly blown back, but he saves himself and keeps his feet grounded, blocking as much of the attack as he can with both arms.]
[ So the 'gray' form that Jaune saw it in isn't even close to ready to eat. Whatever. After a brief second she very quickly drops some red dust with the wind, just barely enough to make the wind warm. It goes on for a little while until she pauses and puts her sword down. ]
[He has his face covered, so he can't see, but he does feel the shift in temperature. So this wasn't sparring, but something else. He lowers his arms and just stands there. His hair is probably a mess by the time Weiss is finished, but he's dry.
[ She puts Myrtenaster at her hip and moves back over to him. ]
Of course not, but I don't have a portable blow-dryer and towel with me at work. This was just easier particularly since you need to understand more about Dust and I'm not going to let you run off after a stunt like this.
Does it taste better than the plain stuff? I heard you can flavor it different ways.
I'll admit I should have waited to use it somewhere less crowded than here. Like a park or something. But I actually did think about this before I tried it. I guess at least I learned Dust makes a good substitute for a blow-dryer.
Completely better. You're supposed to cook it in things and it absorbs the flavor. Then you can fry it and it gets crispy on the outside and has all the flavor of whatever you cooked it next to without all the fat and calories.
[ She shakes her head. ] That's not what I meant. If you want to start learning, it's about time I started teaching you. It's been far too long since I've had someone actually interested in Dust. Sun and Yang don't use it and Blake... Blake hasn't been doing what we have and that's my fault, so she's been even more isolated than I have, which means I haven't had anyone to enjoy Dust with so if you're so interested you're going to freeze yourself to a street corner, you're going to learn. Come on. [ They're going to her car. ]
But if you cook it in meat won't it absorb some of the meat calories?
[He stalls there for a moment, trying to wrap his head around the fact that freezing himself on the sidewalk turned out to be a good thing. Weiss doesn't seem upset though, more motivated than anything.
...She did grow up the heiress to the most prevalent Dust company. He really shouldn't be as surprised as he is, and he wants to learn. Following her.]
[ Actually having something she's good at, the best at here? It's something she can find a small amount of satisfaction and pride in still. She's taking it where she can get it. ]
I don't follow. I think I'm okay with just eating it.
Aww. [He slumps, his disappointment more for show than anything. He actually feels like he's found some direction thanks to Weiss. He doesn't know how much it's helping her, and he isn't sure if he really thinks he has a chance to be good at anything, but he knows Weiss is incredibly skilled with Dust and he doesn't want to disappoint her.]

Re: [Voice]
[He hasn't been keeping track Weiss.]
Hmm. That might work if I put chocolate bacon on them.
[Voice]
[ That's why she asked about his aura. She knows enough about ice to figure it out. ]
That's so disgusting.
[Voice]
It's delicious and nutritionally assorted.
[Voice]
[ Very, very carefully administered, of course. By Weiss. Who actually knows how to use it. ]
There's no added nutrition in those ingredients. Just put fruit on it.
[Voice]
Fruit's okay. Fruit with sausage is better.
[Voice]
[ He can probably see her car pulling up to the approximate area.. ]
How about... fried tofu? [ She'll get him to eat healthier, even if she has to promise frying it to get him halfway there. ]
[Voice]
[He waves, even though she might not see him.]
Fried tofu with waffles or by itself?
[Voice] > action

[Voice] > action
Tofu waffles sound terrible. What's wrong with you?
[Most of his lower half is encased in ice. Which makes nervous fidgeting challenging. But he can shrug.]
I think I aimed wrong.

action
[He leans back as far as he can, arms outstretched, until he reaches the point where he'll end up halfway at a handstand if he leans back any more.
He'd rather not have anything sharp at his dick.]

What are we doing? [He still does as she says. Because he trusts Weiss and it's not red Dust. ]
Do you think a wet skirt is more comfortable than wet pants?
Re: action
[ she's not going to explain beyond... ]
Brace yourself as best as you can.
[ and then he's getting blasted with wind from myrtenaster. ]
action

Dry yet?

[He has his face covered, so he can't see, but he does feel the shift in temperature. So this wasn't sparring, but something else. He lowers his arms and just stands there. His hair is probably a mess by the time Weiss is finished, but he's dry.
He looks pleased.]
Yeah. Is this how you dry off everyday?

Can I drive?

Absolutely not.
