—Weiss, explaining to Ruby the purpose of the "Dust for Dummies" pamphlet
“
You really want to start making things up to me? Read this and don't ever speak to me again!
”
—Weiss, suggesting to Ruby that she read a "Dust for Dummies" pamphlet
“
She's a hazard to my health!
”
—Weiss, telling Yang Xiao Long why she has a problem with Ruby
“
Yeah! And we can paint our nails and try out clothes and talk about cute boys like tall, blond and... scraggly over there.
This will be perfect! The smartest girl in class combined with the strongest girl in class! Together we will be unstoppable! I can see it now - we'll be popular, we'll be celebrities, we'll get perfect grades! Nothing could come between us now!
”
—Weiss' internal monologue, on her plans after partnering with Pyrrha Nikos
“
She's on the cover of every Pumpkin Pete's Marshmallow Flakes box!
”
—Weiss, yelling at Jaune Arc after getting annoyed by his lack of knowledge about Pyrrha
Remember your training Weiss. Head up, shoulders back, right foot forward - not that forward! - slow your breathing, wait for the right time to strike, and... Now!
You are so childish. And dim-witted, and hyperactive, and don't even get me started on your fighting style. And I suppose, I can be a bit... difficult... but if we're going to do this, we're going to have to do this together. So if you quit trying to show off, I'll be... nicer.
—Weiss, responding to Blake's snark about wearing a dress
“
I'm a victim! You want to know why I despise the White Fang? Why I don't particularly trust the Faunus? It's because they've been in war with my family for years. War as in actual bloodshed. My grandfather's company has had a target painted across its back for as long as I can remember. And ever since I was a child, I've watched family, friends disappear. Board members... executed. An entire train car full of Dust stolen. And every day, my father would come home furious. And that made for a very difficult childhood.
Stop! Do you have any idea of how long we've been searching for you? Twelve hours. That means I've had twelve hours to think about this. And in that twelve hours, I've decided...I don't care.
”
—Weiss, telling Blake she doesn't care about her past
“
I don't want to hear it. I only want to know the next time that something this big comes up, you come to your teammates. And not some... someone else.
”
—Weiss, showing her support to Blake
“
I'm still not quite sure about how I feel about you!
It's exactly as you said: I'm a Schnee. I have a legacy of honor to uphold. Once I realized I was capable of fighting, there was no longer a question of what I would do with my life. It was my duty.
”
—Weiss, to Bartholomew on why she wants to become a Huntress
I'm fully aware of what my father has done with the Schnee Dust Company. Since he took control, the business has been operated in a... moral gray area.
”
—Weiss, regarding the Schnee Dust Company
“
My father was not the start of our name, and I refuse to let him be the end of it.
”
—Weiss, regarding her future
“
It's a job. We all had this romanticized vision of being a Huntress in our heads! But at the end of the day, it's a job to protect the people! And whatever we want, will have to come second.
Well, seeing as their Kingdom, academy and armed forces are all merged as one, I think we can expect strict, militant fighters with advanced technology and carefully rehearsed strategies.
You don't have a clue! None of you do! You're all just standing around, talking about nothing: worrying about your hair, your money, your stupid problems that don't mean anything!
”
—Weiss, scolding the Altesian elite for their arrogance
I said I want to leave. I don't want to stay here anymore. I don't want to stay in Atlas anymore!
”
—Weiss, about leaving Atlas, to Jacques
“
I have done nothing but fight to uphold the honor of my family name, a name that you married into!
”
—Weiss, to Jacques
“
I'm not siding with anyone. I'm doing what I feel is right, and that does not include wasting my time up here with these clueless people in Atlas. The Schnee family legacy isn't yours to leave. It's mine, and I'll do it as a Huntress.
Don't worry. I put in blasphemous amounts of cream and sugar just for you.
”
—Weiss, to Ruby, while handing her coffee
“
She will. Yang... You, Ruby, and even Blake are more like family to me than my brother or even my own father. I would do anything for you three, and I'm willing to bet Blake feels the same way. So, when she's ready, I'll be there for her. And I know we're not as close, but... I'm here for you too.
I'm not so sure. I've never seen our forces deployed so aggressively before. If we land in a stolen ship, there's no way the security team will let us anywhere near Ironwood. They might even take me back to my father.
Since Beacon, I haven't really had a choice. Father's view of the world no longer matches with mine.
”
—Weiss, to Winter about their father
“
It's just… Our kingdom isn't supposed to be like this. Fearful, and withdrawn. We should be opening our borders to help the world, not closing them down.
”
—Weiss, to Winter
“
But your destiny was chosen for you, without your input.
”
—Weiss, to Winter about her decision wasn't her own
Snow Shoe Shipping is an SDC subsidiary, meaning all the drones here report to the company, not the general. The pneumatic tubes allow for Dust refined in the crater to be sent straight up to Atlas. We just need to find the one for the military base.
SDC executives have their own auxiliary power supplies in case of a city-wide blackout. It's extremely unfair, but perhaps now isn't such a bad time for company perks.
So we've got people trapped in Atlas and Mantle that we can't evacuate unless we use the Staff which is located inside the Vault. If we open the Vault, Penny terminates. If Ironwood gets wind of any of this, he blows up Mantle.
”
“
People enter from Atlas and Mantle on one side... and leave on the other side, with a one-way ticket to Vacuo.
I don’t know who you think you are, but let me tell you who I am: I am the granddaughter of a hero and a child of a villain. I am a citizen of a fallen Kingdom and an heir to nothing. I will not be defined by my name because I will be the one to define it!
