Big guitar intro
Ruby reached into the closet door and picked up a familiar object—the relic of knowledge. It resized to a larger form in her hand.
“I’m Ruby Rose, and this is my pawn shop. I work here with my old man…”
Taiyang walked through the parking lot outside with a smile, wearing an uncharacteristic hat.
“And my big sis!” Ruby cheered.
Yang kicked her bike stand out and swung off of the large yellow and orange motorcycle. She swung her hair out of the way while flicking off her orange-tinted aviators.
Ruby brought the relic up to the front counter, past huntsman memorabilia and artifacts of kingdoms.
“Everything in here has a story…” Ruby said as Taiyang swung through the front door while removing his hat.
“...And a price.” Ruby said while using her speed to set the relic down and grab a nearby guitar-cannon contraption.
“If there’s anything I’ve learned after 19 years,” Ruby held up a framed bill, one of the older patterns of Vale’s long unused paper currency, “you never know what is gonna come through that door.” Blake held up an old clock.
Weiss walked through the front door holding a, comparatively to her size, excessively large broadsword. Weiss set it on the counter in front of Ruby.
“Alright, whatcha got for us today?” Ruby cheerfully greeted Weiss.
“Authentic sword used by Ozma himself and signed.” Weiss declared.
“How much are you looking to get for it?” Ruby asked.
“7 million lien.” Weiss responded.

Ruby is standing in front of a plain white wall.
“No,” Ruby started laughing, “No…no."
/-/
“Let me call my guy down, he’ll take a look at it, and we’ll see about that price.” Ruby waved at the sword.

Weiss saw the white-haired man dressed in a suit walk through the front door.
Weiss shook his hand, “Hello, Weiss Schnee.”
The man took her hand,
“Hello, Oscar Ozpin.”

Ruby is in front of the white wall again, she's been trying to stifle a laugh. She’s failing.

“I’m a bit of an expert in items like this,” he said.
/-/
Ruby doubled over laughing.
“That feels wrong,” Yang pointed out.
