Ah, ok.



Anyway, at first I thought Velvet´s teammates were total jerks for not standing up to Cardin when he bullied her, but when I saw her totally wreck this Atlesian Paladin 290, and damage that other one, I knew Velvet was just a badass in her own right. I mean, she could´ve beaten Cardin across the school ground before he even drew his weapon, but she didn´t, simply because she knew she could.

She gave Cardin these small moments where he could compensate for his lack of, well, everything (brain, combat skill, brain), because she could. Sure, it hurt when he pulled her ears, but Cardin felt better because he thought she was weaker than him, which, in turn, made him a better student. Velvet knew he´d grow out of it eventually, and if not, she could still smack him around a bit later.



Man, really getting off-topic here, am I?

Btw, I can´t help but ship Cardin and Velvet. I mean, I don´t know why the first ship I actually want to see in its respective source material is this, but I guess it´s because it´d be nice.

Like, what if Cardin was just mean to Velvet because he was jealous? After all, she does have 4 ears, making for twice the hearing and, due to the two sets of ears being in different locations relative to one another, she can pinpoint the source of a sound far easier. Also, most faunus have incredible night vision, which clearly comes in handy during combat at night.

If Velvet knew about this, I´m sure she´d give him a chance. You know, a kind of pity date thing.

Or the two teams get sent on a mission, and Velvet and Cardin get seperated form the others. Or, you know, they just split up into groups of 2 and Coco thinks it´s a good idea to have Cardin and Velvet stick together, because she wants cardin to see what Velvet is capable of so he stops bullying her.
