You've reached Weiss Schnee. Please leave a message and I'll get back to you at the earliest convenience.
[And Weiss is gonna wake up to find a letter waiting for her, reading:
Happy birthday, Weiss!
Come downstairs!
-R]
Happy birthday, Weiss!
Come downstairs!
-R]
[Weiss wakes up as she usually does, late and reluctantly. It takes her a bit to even notice Ruby's letter, let alone read it. When she does, however, she forces herself to wake up enough to head downstairs, still in her nightgown and fighting down a yawn.]
Ruby, you left me a letter?
Ruby, you left me a letter?
Uh-huh! Happy birthday! I got you something!
[And she dashed away and returns with a box all wrapped up with a bow on top.]

[Weiss slowly blinks at the box.]
I'm sure I'll be very excited about this when I'm in a proper state to appreciate it. For now, coffee.

Oh! Right! Sorry!
[And she zips away and returns with a fresh pot, a few cups and sugar and cream.]

[Weiss completely ignores the sugar and cream at first, only turning to them once she remembers the side effect of her Bottomless Mug. Even then, she only adds enough to offset the extra bitterness. She drinks long and deep and lowers her mug with a satisfied sigh.]
Okay, I'm feeling more like an actual person now. Can I see that box again?

Okay! Here you go!
[And she hands over the box to Weiss.]
I hope you like it…
[And she hands over the box to Weiss.]
I hope you like it…
[Weiss sets her drink down on a table as she takes the gift. Perfectionist that she is, she takes the time to actually unwrap it rather than just tear it open.]
[And once the package is opened, Weiss will find two outfits inside. The first is a variation of her Huntress outfit with Ruby’s signature red coloring on the belts and gloves and the sigil on the jacket’s back is the combination of hers and Ruby’s.
The second is a white and blue variant of Ruby’s outfit, the boots shorter and designed for her more elegant stances and a shorter cape.]
I hope it ain’t too much…

I love them.
[Weiss leans in to plant a kiss on Ruby's cheek.]
I always did like to give my outfits a splash of red to go with all the white.

[Ruby giggled as she received the kiss.]
I’m glad. I wanted to do something special and well, I figured something with a bit of me in it would be best…

Hold on for just a bit!
[Weiss grabs both outfits and heads back upstairs. A few minutes later, she comes down in the recolor of her own outfit, but wearing the hood from the recolor of Ruby's.]
How do I look?

[Ruby gasps at the sight, her silver eyes shining.]
It looks perfect! You look amazing!
It looks perfect! You look amazing!
Naturally! This is me we're talking about, after all. Still, they do say clothes make the woman. Thank you, really.
[And Ruby’s quick to reach Weiss and hug her.]
You’re so welcome. I’m glad they work and they fit.
You’re so welcome. I’m glad they work and they fit.
They do, on both counts. I would ask how and when you got my measurements, but the answer to that seems fairly obvious.
Ahahah, yes, well… that is obvious, yes. But, having to adjust my outfit to your size was worrisome since my style of combat and yours are much different. Especially since I have a cape.
You did a good job of it. It looks like it won't impede my movement, though I will have to get used to the weight of the cloak.
I’m glad to hear that. Take your time with the cape, though.
Oh! Almost forgot!
[And she pulls out a smaller box.]
Not a ring, but hopefully something special.

You spoil me.
[Weiss takes the box, opening it up to see what's inside.]

I have to. You deserve it.
[And inside is a badge, a sigil design of Weiss’ snowflake mingled with Ruby’s flaming rose.]
I wanted to see how it would look and I figured you should have it.

It's gorgeous. ...Hmm. It wouldn't be too hard to get this made into a necklace, would it?
No, it wouldn’t! I knew it wouldn’t work as a badge like mine, so it’s small enough to work as something else! I think there’s a hole you can slide string in…
[It’s morning and there’s something wonderful cooking in the kitchen. Once Weiss wakes up, she’ll find Ruby standing at the foot of her bed, holding a tray of breakfast - pancakes, eggs, bacon, all arraigned right.]
Happy birthday, Weiss…!
Happy birthday, Weiss…!
[Weiss, bleary as she always is in the morning, takes a moment to register what Ruby says.]
Huh? Oh, right. Thank you, Ruby.
[She takes the tray into her own hands, setting it down in front of her.]
