 * Day 1: "Of all the things listed in Velvet’s mental list of 'cons' about Vacuo, number one was the lack of anything to include under 'pros.'"
 * Day 2: "More of the dark, deadly creatures poured into Beacon with every passing hour, faster than they could be destroyed. The monsters were the stuff of nightmares, all shadow and bone, fire and fury."
 * Day 3: "The First-years had been at Beacon for barely a day, and they were all about to die."
 * Day 4: "Fox wondered what Ozpin had been thinking when he decided to throw a blind boy off a cliff."
 * Day 5: “Fortunately, I had this broken wagon,” Slate went on. “I stayed with it and hoped for the best.” “That’s us,” Coco said. “The best have arrived.”
 * Day 6: The "big kid," Yatsuhashi Daichi, knew more about being bullied than anyone could have guessed. He’d always been the big kid growing up, and because of his size most people had assumed he was stupid, or they were scared of him.
 * Day 7: The most popular items in the tourist gift shops were T-shirts that read, "Vacuo: the Wrong Place at the Wrong Time" and "A Terrible Place to Visit, But You Wouldn’t Want to Live There."
 * Day 8: “We will not turn the dance into a fight club,” Velvet said.
 * Day 9: Every time Coco turned around, one or more of the girls from Team RWBY was there, right in the middle of the action.
 * Day 10: Team CFVY, all of the students who had defended Beacon this day, were a testament to what Beacon stood for. They were every bit the shining inspirations, the sources of light in a world filled with darkness, that Professor Ozpin had hoped they would be.
 * Day 11: The world was testing all of them, and she wasn’t sure she would be ready to step up when the time came. All she could do was try to keep it together from one day to the next.
 * Day 12: A huge mound of sand was moving toward them, like Pumpkin Pete tunneling under the ground in the old cartoons. Something told her it wasn’t going to be an animated bunny.
