🧙 WHO: Emerald & Weiss
⚔️️ WHAT: Power Imbalance Trial
🕒 WHEN: Day 1
🗺️ WHERE: Just outside the club
⚠️ WARNINGS: Probably none, will update if need be.

[ Things were still.. ridiculously awkward between Emerald and just about everyone she knew at this point. Even people she knew from here who had no idea what Emerald had been through back home, or the fact that she was trying to do better. It wasn't like she talked to many people about it, and that made it all the weirder to only be able to really process it around the people formerly-known-as-brats to her. At least it gave Emerald incentive to try to stick around them a little more, instead of fucking off because there was no Salem to try to take down or Oscar to convince her to stay. Instead, it was just a sense of wanting to belong somewhere, and that had somehow ended up with her taking Weiss to a strange club.

The show itself had been weird. Funny, in a way, and Emerald didn't really mind volunteering. That is until she's standing outside while the audience piles out and dumbfoundedly looking at the bracelet while she waits for Weiss to get out. (It's not her fault that taller people have it easier in masses of people because they can see where they're going.) At least she's waiting for her, she could just take off! But she's not! And so, when Weiss gets out of the crowd, she's going to see Emerald with her teeth up against her wrist, the end of the bracelet in her mouth as she tries to pull it off. Her eyebrows raise when she spots Weiss. ]

Hey, help me get these off.

[ It's one thing for Weiss to communicate positively with Emerald, but it is another that they get along. They're on the same side now, so they're allies, but it doesn't automatically mean they're... (gulp) family.

So please excuse Weiss' arched brow and turned off expression when she sees Emerald and her, for lack of better word, "current predicament". ]

Ew. I'm not touching something with your drool on it.

[unhappy]

[ They're most definitely not family. Friends is still a stretch, actually. Trying to get along is about the level they're at. She narrows her eyes at Weiss. ]

I didn't drool on it. [ She wipes it on her pants and then holds it out again. ] Better?

[schmisse]

I guess.

[ Still kinda gross. May as well, though. With both pinkies out, she reaches for the bracelet and attempts to yank it off. ]

Try pulling away from me, too.

[unhappy]

Yes ma'am.

[ And she does just that, pulling away from Weiss before she even gets the bracelet?? She's following orders here. ]

Uh.

[schmisse]

... what are you doing?

[ This is not the time to play games?!?!?! ]

[unhappy]

Pulling.. away?

[ Emerald looks disgruntled about it too. It's not like she wanted to? ]
