[As soon as she moves he's tilting his head enough to rest on hers and effectively trap her there. It's easier than having to look at her anyway.]
I know. [And he does know that. He knows the masks were making people crazy but Ruby's right. That hardly fixes anything.] But the masks didn't totally warp people's personalities, did they? [There's...something he's missing.]

Normal Weiss iciness. She said we had a lot to talk about and immediately drew her sword on me and started freaking out about how I stole you from her and that I thought I was better than her and some other stuff and she told me to prove it.
So. I tried. [He'd tried stopping her and when that didn't work, he stooped to her level.] She's a lot stronger than she lets on, and her glyphs aren't a joke. I never thought they were but it was hard to keep dodging her and eventually fighting back just pissed her off even more so she caught me off-guard and just...[He uses his free hand to gesture to the space below the left side of his ribs.]
She ran out of energy when I pulled off the mask. If I hadn't? Who knows if I'd even be here right now.

I'm not sure I want to see her again for a really long time.
