    Summary

    "Ha!" quoth Will Scarlet. "This must be looked into. There is someone in distress nigh to us here."

    "I know not," quoth Will Stutely, shaking his head doubtfully. "Our master is ever rash about thrusting his finger into a boiling pot; but, for my part, I see no use in getting ourselves into mischievous coils."
     

    Or: First impressions matter. It takes time to warm up to the Vale kids...and time is a resource that Mantle is rapidly running out of.

    Summary

    “I don’t want you do something stupid on international television when you could’ve just downloaded Tinder,” Weiss says. Blake smiles—there’s the Weiss she knows—and goes back to folding her shirt.

    “I’m not going to do anything stupid,” she says. “I’m not looking to meet anyone, and if I was, I wouldn’t go after wannabe reality TV stars. But they’re going to fly me all over the world, Weiss, and pay me more than I made in four years of royalties off my last book.”

    “When you put it like that, it sounds almost reasonable.”

    “That’s because it is,” Blake says. “Now help me pack or get out of my apartment.”

    “Just promise me you won’t actually marry someone you meet on reality television."

    (Blake agrees to become Remnant's next bachelorette for a lot of reasons, but getting married is absolutely nowhere on that list. Then, of course, she meets Yang.)

    Written because I needed something a little less depressing.

    Summary

    Summer, Taiyang, Raven, and Qrow would normally never stay at a place as disgustingly Atlesian as this. Unfortunately, it's nearly midnight and they don't have time to find another hotel to—hey wait a second, is that a fucking kid?
