[ Another 2-6 AM shift down, Jaune can be seen disembarking the bus that came from the Pleasure District. He's wearing a suit, although he looks fairly unkept and tired from working all night, complete with a half untucked shirt and a loose tie. When you do what you do several times on a night, let alone a week, you kind of stop caring about how you're presenting yourself. All everyone seems to care about is what's underneath the clothes, don't they? And sure enough, they'll be coming off again soon.

The sun has already come up on his hour-long ride home, which means the residents, including Pyrrha, should be waking up to start their day soon. All he had to do was walk a few more blocks to reach his apartment, sneak inside and catch some sleep until noon. It's as much a routine as it is with what he does at work by now.

With his remaining (yet slowly fading) determination, he starts pressing his feet against the pavement, slowly one at a time. ]

[ it's exactly the sort of morning you wouldn't want to come across your former crush. especially when said former crush has a tendency to make snap judgments, though jaune can be comforted with the fact that this morning isn't one of weiss' best, either.

it's been a little less than a full week since their arrival in this strange place, but already weiss has been making herself busy. two part-time jobs while still being a full-time student is probably not the wisest choice she's ever made ("full on crazy" were her team's words, if she remembers correctly), but it's certainly one of the more plausible ones she can imagine at this time. begrudging as she is to admit it, she doesn't know for sure how long any of them are stuck here, and she's not about to be caught with too many disadvantages. if that means breaking her back to ensure her team is going to be well cared for and supported? well. so be it.

...she does wish she hadn't indulged in those few sips of coffee from the cafe the other evening, though. she'd been up most of the night as a result, and she's definitely paying for it now.

it's actually in the midst of stifling a yawn that she realizes she is not alone in this sidewalk, that the person slowly dragging their feet across the pavement down the other end is someone she definitely recognizes, even if the outfit isn't quite so. ]

...Jaune?

[ she peers curiously at his attire, the suit a far match from the uniform she's currently sporting — proof that, like the others, he'd opted not to continue his schooling here.

so then what is he doing up so early? ]
