Yang and Blake are actually fairly similar in the Beacon Arc but they go about things differently. They both have a wall up they donât want people to look behind.
Blakeâs is her being closed off and short with people, if she pushes them away eventually theyâll stay away. Sheâs the âbookish quietâ person who clearly has walls up and doesnât want people to get close, walls her team push past. And they prove to her over time she can be open with them.
Yang is also closed off, but her mask is to be loud and happy, not quiet and reserved. If sheâs smiling and laughing in the middle of the group, nobody will notice theres more going on underneath (she even fooled some of the audience). Just like Blake, her team pushes past and sees underneath and proves she can be vulnerable with them.
Blake is scared of people close to her being hurt, Yang is scared of people close to her leaving, but theyâre both scared to let people close. They both hide parts of themselves to keep their hearts safe. They just have completely opposite ways of doing it.

A/N: Freezerburn hurt/comfort, set in a loose AU where they finished their full time at Beacon. Chapter 4/5, link to next part at the bottom. In this one, Yang misunderstands, and Weiss just wants more.
Chapter Three is right here.
Breakfast had always been a loud, energetic time at Beacon⌠or maybe that was just a side-effect of Yangâs table. Between Yangâs jokes, Ruby and Yangâs little arguments and debates, Jaune - and, thus, his friends - joining them fairly often, and even the occasional autograph-seeker for Pyrrha or Weiss, their table had always been full of laughs, fights, or, if nothing else, noise.
That was, until the spring of their last year. Suddenly, their eyes were on the clock more often, the conversations a little more distracted, things left unsaid under every sentence. They begin trying to hold on to every second, reticent to let it slip between their fingers.
But then again...
Weiss watches as Yang gives the others a significant look and they all begin heading out, talking about classes to get to and future roommates to talk to.
Maybe she was just projecting.
âBabe,â Yang starts, her voice quiet and soft, and it stings at the corners of Weissâ eyes. âCan we-â
âI canât right now,â Weiss says, using a glyph to boost herself to her feet without thinking about it. âNeed to speak to Professor Goodwitch.â
âYeah, okay,â Yang says, her gaze hot on Weissâ back. âAfter?â
Weiss disappears around a door before she can ask again, taking a shaky breath.
/
Yangâs voice reaches her, and she smiles⌠at first.
â-and you know, Rubyâs planning on moving back to Patch, so I might-â Yang turns, still mid-conversation with Nora, and Weissâ heart isnât sure whether to jump or sink when their eyes meet. âHey, Weiss, one sec-â
She walks past Yang, forcing the dread and sadness in her chest deep down. âSorry, restroom!â she says, not giving Yang a chance to leave her conversation and come with.
She already knew the conversation that was coming.
The one theyâd have to have, sooner rather than later.
The one sheâd been dreading all year.
The one she couldnât escape.
/
Calloused hands find hers, just when the afternoon light starts fading into twilight, and she turns from her book to see Yang looking down at her.
âBabe?â Yang says, too gentle, and Weiss feels the tears coming already. Even in public, just sitting on their usual bench, she feels the tears start.
Itâs embarrassing, still, how easily Yang can slip through her defenses and make her show emotion she thinks she keeps hidden.
âI⌠need to shower,â Weiss says, pulling her hand free but disguising it by slipping a bookmark into her book.Â
âWeiss.â Yang tries, a bit more insistent, but she pretends not to hear, walking away.
âDo you think weâll need more shampoo bef-â She swallows. âNevermind, I just need to grab a towel and-â
âPartner,â Yang says, almost too quiet to hear, and Weiss stops in her tracks. âWe gotta talk soon, you know?â
âCanâŚâ Weiss swallows, turning to her, eyes not quite meeting Yangâs as her lip quivers. âCan I have a little longer, please? Just a few more days?â
âWhat?â Yang asks, stepping a bit closer. âWeiss, what do you- ohh, come on, hey...â Yang reaches for her hand again, and Weiss canât make herself pull away. âItâs gonna be alright, okay?â
A gentle tug, and sheâs in Yangâs arms, held close as she shakes. âYou donât know that.â
âI donât,â Yang admits, stroking her back. âBut hey, we can do it. Weâll be together, right?â
Everything stops. Sheâs silent, the tears coming to a slow halt, and Yang gives an awkward cough.
âWe. Will be together, right?â Yang asks, soft. âI kinda assumed we would, but then you never talked about it and youâve kinda beenâŚâ
âAvoiding you.â Weiss realizes, her heart not sure whether to soar or sink.
âYeah,â Yang says, laughing without much joy, and Weiss tucks her head against her chest. âI got a small apartment set up in the city. Not a âwalk there tonightâ kind of close, butâŚâ She looks at Weiss, smiling beatifically. âItâs too small, rentâs way more than I wanted to pay by myself, and they said the dishwasher doesnât work yet, butâŚâ
âItâs ours?â Weiss offers, barely above a whisper, and Yang smiles.
âItâs ours.â She agrees, and Weiss buries her face in Yangâs sweater, smiling far too wide to let it be seen in publicâŚÂ
