Her father taught her how to wield a rapier, while her first mother fostered her singing ability. But Father grew distant when her mother died and the step mother cared not for Weiss. Ah, I remember that one (this thread has its own form of nostalgia, I've noticed). But maybe her father didn't grow too distant, just fatalistic. And they grew apart because watching him age was painful for Weiss.

But then, I guess Weiss just doesn't have a tragic enough personality to still have a loved family member. I realized from her lightning monologue in EP4 that (although it was funny), a lot of my earlier predictions about her character were pretty off base. Now that we know Weiss actually wants to be the #1 at Beacon, and she isn't just trying to hold up the weight of her name.

Or maybe Weiss is just one of those girls that has a very flawed idea of friendship, and equates it to fame and popularity. We just don't know.
