[Let's be real. They just walk around smiling like big dopes at one another all the time.]

Yeah... I think it's entirely driven out of spite honestly. Maybe a little fear. I'm not really entirely sure.

[Her shoulders sink softly as she thinks it over.]

I honestly didn't know it was like that for the longest time. I didn't really know anyone who had them. Except for my mom. No one really told me what they could do until after everything at the Vytal Festival but even my Uncle was vague about it then.

I only found out I had I may have a target on my head after being attacked by someone who worked for Salem. ...And then even then I didn't know people with them had been hunted down until I met Maria.

I don't know if it was being kept from me to keep me safe or whether they just didn't know themselves. There aren't a lot of people with eyes like mine around, but with how long Ozpin has been around he must have known.

[She's just going to shrug off that line of thought for now. Talking about Ozpin generally brought down the mood.]

Exactly. What she has told me was amazing. It's exactly what I grew up wanting to do. Learning more about myself and what I can do is always great too.

[And those eyes just look at him with all the brightness and warmth she can muster.]
