Hey everyone, it’s Kern here, coming at you with a Weiss Schnee related fan song, and a letter she might have written to Winter early in volume 1. This is just head canon, but the song resonates well, I’d say. When I wrote this song, I wanted to paint Winter as the trusted role model that Weiss knows her to be, while equally banking on busted ego Weiss seems to have in the very early segments of RWBY Volume 1.

I wanted to do a Weiss fan song that’s more “fan fiction” than realty, although these themes are present in the show for sure. We set the stage with Weiss sending a letter to sister because we get no Winter Schnee in V1… so, yeah… this would take place in the ensuing days after the initiation, before she fully acclimates to Peter’s advice.

Hope you like the song!

Lyrics:
[Verse 1] Dearest Winter, I write from this madhouse they call a school, Where chaos reigns and no one minds the rules. You told me to be strong, to lead, to stand with pride… But by Dust, I swear this place is testing every ounce of me inside.

[Verse 2] Ruby, my own team leader — younger by two years, Still acts like a child with no sense of her peers. She doodles in class while we study the Grimm, And skips through the halls on a juvenile whim. Yang, her sister, slams through halls with fists and flair, She calls it ‘training’ when she throws me through the air. Horseplay, roughhousing, shouting without shame… And somehow I’m the one always taking the blame.

[Chorus] Oh Winter, what happened to order and grace? It’s just hall brawls and pillow wars taking place. I try to speak sense, try to bring a little class… But I may as well talk to broken glass. You told me I’d grow, you’d help me rise, But this is madness — not training — in disguise.

[Verse 3] And Blake, mysterious, quiet, and bold, She stares like I’ve done something wicked and cold. She speaks my name with bitter disdain, As if I forged the contracts, as if I caused the pain. I barely know her, but she acts so severe… Judging our family, as if I brought us here.

[Bridge] But Pyrrha… she’s different, a light, sincere, A champion’s heart, and the only one near Who listens, who cares, who gets this facade, The struggle to lead when they treat rules as fraud. With her, I’m not lost in this swirling parade, She sees the girl, not the name or the blade.

[Chorus] Oh Winter, I miss your quiet tone, The echo of your boots on marble stone. I miss your voice, your steadiness, your stare, Here, I’m adrift — and most don’t seem to care. They laugh, they shout, they dance in fire… While I sit here, drained, barely inspired.

[Outro] So, I write you this letter, while I’m away, And you’re serving Atlas in your own way. But if you can spare a moment to write, Please remind me that I’m not right. That the world still holds reason, logic and purpose dear, Because without that thought, I may not last here. Your sister, striving to stay composed… Weiss Schnee… …… An official student of Beacon Academy….
