[ Good advice! Weiss will definitely take these things to heart, and go back to the basics when it comes to practicing the use of her Semblance.
When they stop, though, she looks up at Ozpin. She does not want to divulge the Schnee Dust Company's secrets, but at the same time, this is a project her father and his men have been working on. Weiss has always wanted the SDC to run clean, and that was what she wanted to do if she took over.
If, not when.
She looks away. ]
It was a Grimm produced by the Schnee Dust Company. My father had me fight it as a test. If I couldn't win against it, then I would stay in Atlas and I wouldn't attend Beacon.
[ it's . . . difficult, to read his expression, because the notion of purposefully creating grimm is an atrocious one. and that, certainly, is not weiss' fault or doing, and it would be inappropriate to really . . . give a reaction.
still. to not only create a grimm, but force your relatively inexperienced teenage daughter to go against it as some sort of sick combat ritual so she can go to the school of her choosing . . . there's something to be said for the sheer lack of humanity from jacques schnee, but it shouldn't be said to his youngest daughter.
after a long moment of silence, ozpin squeezes weiss' arm gently, before speaking: ]
I am extraordinarily glad that you won.
[ because only the gods know what would have happened to weiss if she had been forced to stay. ]
[ Whatever the SDC even did with those Grimm they experimented on, Weiss has no idea, but she knows it's not for good. She's not even sure what other dirt there is in the SDC, when she's exposed to so little of it. She likely won't know more about the company for a while, considering the turn of events she's gone through, and will go through if and when she goes back home.
Ozpin squeezing her arm makes her look at him, though. It's comforting, especially with what he tells her afterwards. ]
Yes. [ She's the most glad amongst them all, tbh. Winter is the second one. (Probably.) ] I'd been training with my sister before I was given the test, so she's shaped me to become the fighter I am now.
[ Even if that battle gave her the scar on her eye, defeating the Armoured Grimm was the best things to ever happen to her! ]
