Of all the times to get sick...!

[ Oh, she accidentally hit record. It's a good thing she realized it pretty quickly, before her little rant got recorded besides that. She didn't want to leave everyone out to hang during all of the drama with the witch and possessions, but unfortunately, aura protected against injuries a lot better than it did against the flu.

But now she was better. Jaune had gone and joined a crew by now and Weiss? She had been planning to do the same since their original plans to have their own crew had gone slightly awry. Having sold the ship, she still owed Jaune half of the money for that. Well, that'll come up when it comes up. For now, if this thing is recording she might as well make a useful post out of it. ]

I suppose I shouldn't be surprised that someone from another world is much more susceptible to the flu here. I'm glad that's over. Do people get sick here often or do I just have very bad luck?

[ Moving right along, she has a declaration to make: ]

Oh, and I'm joining The Shepherds.

[ Weiss you do not declare, you have to ask. ]

I don't mean to only sign up after the trouble's over, but I couldn't really avoid it.

[ Just because she likes a few people on the Shepherd's crew so far doesn't mean she'll be any good at taking orders from the captain, but she's trying! ]

Does it really count if it's not spoken? It's just a poem right now.

[ She'll never stop trying to get him to talk to her. It's weird having to speak out loud to writing and she's too stubborn to just switch over! ]

haha well you know you gotta write it down first
part of it is getting your thoughts through
then measuring it up against a beat
if it all syncs up then youve got gold

[Meanwhile, she would rue the day she got Dave excited enough to talk about how awesome rap was.]

voice;

[whiteas]

I know how to make music. I can sing. I thought that genre of music was famous for having sorts of.. impromptu word battles.

voice;

[dersite_dj]

rap battles are super awkward and pointless unless you can see the other persons face
then its more like rap battle at a book
also the book doesnt blink or look startled because of all the disses its missing

voice;

[whiteas]

How do you practice then?

voice;

[dersite_dj]

text based rap battles work pretty decently
see people get used to it
anyway
right now i use time clones

voice;

[whiteas]

What are time clones?

voice;

[dersite_dj]

versions of me that go to the past and overlap with the present me
so that there's more than one of me around at any given time

voice;

[whiteas]

So there are a bunch of duplicates of you running around and having rap battles with you?

[ Actually, she might like to see that.. as disbelieving as she sounds right now. ]

doesnt that sound dope as shit
just saying it and not just doing it makes it sound even more awesome
i mean if youre alone might as well be alone with yourself
and being alone with myself is understandably fun as hell
even if half the time im the future dave and i can predict what im gonna say

voice;

[whiteas]

"Future Dave?"

[ Wait- ] I thought you said your name was Draco?

voice;

[dersite_dj]

man
well there goes the joke
provided anyone believes you
which they fucking wont

voice;

[whiteas]

I don't really get it, but if you want to be called Draco or Dave, I don't care.

[ Basically, she's saying she'll go along with it even if she doesn't get it. ]

Just don't change it too many more times. [ She'll have to start calling him D or something if he does that. ]

written;

[dersite_dj]

[Calling him D would be D...isastrous.]

im only really doin it to give the poor guy a good reputation
figures the little rich magic dude could use some boostin

voice;

[whiteas]

[ All the more reason she should do it. Wait. There's something amiss here. ]

Why would someone who's small, rich, and can do magic need reputation boosting?

voice;

[dersite_dj]

hahaha have you met that guy
if he werent rich in cash hed be rich in being a gigantic douche
literally everything that comes out of his mouth is some movie cliche from a rich kid
he needs help bein likeable i guess

voice;

[whiteas]

Obviously I haven't or I wouldn't be asking. Won't people be able to tell the difference between you and he if he's here anyway?

voice;

[dersite_dj]

i make up a lot of bullshit about justifying it
but in reality its just a fun build up to his inevitable reaction
wondering why the fuck im doing it himself

voice;

[whiteas]

You're kind of odd aren't you?

voice;

[dersite_dj]

please
i stepped off the train and rolled into crazyville years ago
any hope of turnin out normal was long abandoned
tossed to the curb like a matted stuffed animal
you grow up and go bananas
its just how the world turns babe

voice;

[whiteas]

I don't think I've heard anyone openly admit to being nuts that easily before.

voice;

[dersite_dj]

thats because people are douches who act like hot shit and pretend to be amicable to get boning sessions under way
while everybodys worried about keepin up appearances
im up on the foul linin up for the quarter shot
gotta keep my head cool
cant be burdened with all the goddamn lies and fake shit goin on
real talk i cant be the chumpenheimer who just pretends to be cool

voice;

[whiteas]

[ It takes her a minute to figure out just what he was trying to say with that spiel, but basically what she gets out of it is that he's not trying to find someone to date so he's fine with being weird.

Which Weiss actually finds pretty cool, since it sounds like it's a lot more fun than constantly trying to keep up appearances for others. Even if she isn't specifically looking to get a date, she's had to do that her whole life. Nothing less than perfection and it's not a habit that's easy to break. ]

Well, there are plenty of other reasons to try to keep up appearances besides getting a date, but I don't think that reasoning is bad.

voice;

[dersite_dj]

yeah but acting one way and just being one way are two different things
we dont expect swamp monsters to put on suits and jump into an office ready to be CEO of the fucknugget co.
not everybodys gotta be all that great
i mean i used to act like a goddamn chump because i thought i had to step it up and be as cool as my bro
but it kind of became obvious that it would never happen
so i figured what if i just sort of
reached over and grabbed at goals i actually gave a shit about

voice;

[whiteas]

So you don't think it's bad to worry about that sort of thing if you are in a situation like that?

[ That's a relief at least. ]

It's probably cooler if you don't have to try to be cool, anyway.
