Oopsie, I forgot to ask something. I know this may be off-topic (well, we're technically off-topic already) but at the end of episode 15, Weiss says "ever since I was a child, I've watched family friends disappear" (once again, I'm not 100% confident in my understand of talked English). Does she mean she has lost members of family and her friends, or does she mean some people close to her family (so, considered as friends of the family) died? It is subtle but it would make a great different to our interpretation of her social awkwardness, since one would imply she, indeed, has had friends (and many people within the fandom believe she never had friends before, or any social interaction besides family and possibly tutors).
