[ Try to avoid them. God, he was so honest. Weiss almost looked surprised when he said that just because he was actually open about hating these sorts of things and it didn't seem to be followed up by a comment about just going to one for the company or anything gross. ]
Your parents sound a little more lenient than mine. [ He gets the opportunity to avoid them. Weiss doesn't have a choice if her father says she's going. ] But...
[ On a scale of one to ten how much trouble is this going to get her in? He could just turn around and call her rude and that'd be it. ]
If I have to go to one, it's nice to hear someone else is sane enough not to find this particularly enjoyable.
[a little more lenient indeed, and he was thankful for that. ren thought for sure he had found a kindred spirit however, especially when she let on to how much she didn't actually enjoy these kinds of events. his smile lasted a little bit longer.]
I would prefer a quieter event. Healthy food served, light drinks, and music much better than this.
[now that sounds a million times better.] The expectation to converse is something I could do without, as well.
[ She rolls her eyes a little. She's not going to mention anything else about his attentiveness or the way he treats her, but the way he's been watching her is something anyone with eyes can see. There's no point in hiding it. ]
We've both made our feelings quite clear on the matter and I'm going regardless.
[ren shook his head. as much as he hated the small talk, this kind of conversation was fine. besides, it looked as though weiss needed the distraction, so he planned on continuing to talk to her.]
Oh. I had planned on going to Beacon as well. It is admirable that you will follow through, despite what your father has been saying.
[ However, Weiss.. wants fresh air. Despite that she said they could remain silent, she looks around. She.. has an idea, but it would definitely involve breaking the rules, which she's not keen on yet. So she mostly just looks over uncertainly at the wine glasses.
A quick spill and Ren could be a gentleman and help her go clean up. But would that really be okay? He might call a servant or chide her for spilling, or... ]

We could just stand here in silence and pretend to speak when someone who cares walks by. Father will be, at least twice in the next 28 minutes.
[ She's been timing it. He's keeping a hawk's eye on her since she's started talking about leaving home. ]

He... truly does that? [watches her like she's some sort of child?? wow.]
