Description
In this AU, we get to see Weiss's life in the months past between coming home to Atlas from Volume 3's end, till Volume 4.

In that time, her father has only spoken of her ordeal at Beacon when attempting to butter up an executive or milk empathy out of potential investors.

With Klein often too busy with tending to her mother, and brother and father to boot...Weiss finds herself left to her own devices, and her native "friends" of Atlas are revealed to be fair-weather when compared to her Team, or down right ignorant to the struggles of the swindled or Faunus.

The only one Weiss ironically could talk to about the event, with a semblance of understanding, was Flynt Coal of Team FNKI.

Though bitter opponents in the Vytal Tournament, they left the fight with differing and...redemptive views of each other, and their sides of the tracks.

Weiss was no longer the prissy, daddy's girl of a Schnee, and Flynt not the angry, working class envying of her success.

With this new mutual understanding that she was more than a Schnee, and him more than a sassy Musician, they found each other to be much needed confidants.

Knowing her father would never approve, of her associating with a "licentious miscreant" who defied their university's policy's on freedom of expression, they defiantly meet in secret...practicing, sparring, talking....teasing....and one night while walking her to her car....kissing.

Two sides of the same city, one from it's underbelly, the other it's echelon of ivory towers, laying prejudice aside...under the noses of the ones who would see them apart.
