UN: HisBurlyness (VIDEO)

[talkstoposters]

[Despite the feed being broadcast, there's nothing actually on screen. Just pitch black darkness.

For about all of two seconds before a big dragon skull with blue fireballs for eyes lets out a loud roar. The lights come back on and the full skeleton can be seen.]

GWAHAHAHAHA! Got you chumps good, didn't I? I still got it! Lost all my skin in that fight with Xelvak, so I figured I'd have some fun at your expense before I get it all back.

I admit, it was rather shocking to see the flesh decay off your bones, only for your bones to get right back up.

[Weiss doesn't look Bowser in the eyes as she mutters the next part.]

Something that shouldn't have happened.

[talkstoposters]

[Aw, that's almost sweet.]

But it did. It could have also been a lot worse. You kids still need some practice, but you're all tougher than I gave you credit for.

[His jaw twitches a bit, shifting into a bit of a smirk. Or as close to one he can get.]

Not as tough as me, though.

[notbornguilty]

Considering that being reduced to a skeleton isn't enough to put you down, I'd say that's a fairly high bar you're setting.

[That does cheer Weiss up a bit, a small smile forming.]

[talkstoposters]

No point if the bars aren't high. Nobody gets gold medals for doing "okay".

[notbornguilty]

That's... very true.

[The smile that Bowser managed to get out of her fades at that. Jacques Schnee's high expectations aren't exactly a secret.]

[talkstoposters]

What's that look for?

[notbornguilty]

My father had very... exacting expectations of me. Either I did it well, or I did it again.

[talkstoposters]

That doesn't sound too bad. Beats failing and not getting another chance to prove yourself.

[notbornguilty]

I suppose...

[She's just... not going to mention her father's temper.]
