No need to worry them unduly.

-[X] Leave out the eventual ramifications of Cell. When it comes to what is essentially world conquest, infosec is the name of the game. Semblances are bullshit.

The other stuff...I might change my mind about, but the Semblance stuff is what's important.

Would it be better or worse to tell them we didn't create the new AI so much as play midwife to our Semblance?
Define 'better.'

And 'worse.'

Shit, define 'midwife' while you're at it, because I'm fairly sure your brain looked like you just gave birth to Athena by the time you were finished making the Process.

I appreciate the value of information control, but there's a time an a place for everything and this is our family. Jaune isn't from a messed up home where people throw him under the bus. He's got seven siblings and two parents who love him and support him, and he needs their support, especially if his life keeps getting weirder. Keep secrets from everyone else? Yes. Ask them to not talk about Ada's baggage in public? Definitely. But our family? They don't get put in danger for knowing this stuff, and we don't gain anything from hiding it. Even if they try to forbid us from going after Lee, we're leaving for Beacon soon and they can't house-arrest us there.
For what it's worth to people, I know I've not had a chance to do anything with your sisters yet, a phrase I'd appreciate not being taken out of context, but I'll say that Jaana and Jools are probably the most level-headed people in the house, bar yourself.

You can definitely talk to them about stuff and expect a calm, well-thought out response. Even if it is about figuring out how to beat Boriah Lee to death with his own skull.

Actually, @Prok, was Jaune aware that his Semblance is Calculation, precisely, prior to manifesting the Process? Because him thinking the Transistor was part of his Semblance rather than a separate creation of it is an entirely logical deduction to my thinking.
I mean, he pretty much figured it out the moment he realised math class gave him a headache for entirely different reasons. Once he actively started writing down code and equations that, eventually, became the Transistor, it became pretty obvious what his Semblance was. Unconventional, but undeniably what it was.

The Process was a revelation, just... a different one.

As far as talking about Semblances go, Pyrrha volunteered hers because, let's be honest, she probably discovered it while training. It was just, a thing for her.

Ren discovered his during a heavily, heavily traumatic moment of his life, and if it wasn't what it was, he'd probably never use it, never talk about it, never acknowledge it, never become a Huntsman in the first place.

As far as everybody else, I'm taking a certain view on what Beacon would do with the topic, which you will find out about next year when we actually get there.

I'm kidding, I'm kidding.

June at worst.

I'm not sure Jaune is prepared to deal with the ramifications of the Process yet, let alone his family, and it's going to sound crazy if he vomits it out at the same time as the AI stuff as well. Give everyone some time to adjust, hmmm?

In truth, I want to come clean cause Jaune is reaching his limit of shenanigans he can deal with.

Cept Ada's story is hers and not ours to share.

Cept Weiss's situation is private and not ours to share.

We already started the path of having morals and a conscience (I'm so proud. Sniff) Why divert now?

Actually having a conscience only gets in our way, but I rather if Jaune keeps mum about stuff that's not his to talk about.

Well, the thing with Weiss went well. That's gonna pay dividends sooner or later. That said, while it's a cute anecdote, it'd be mainly a distraction during the upcoming conversation.

As for the questioning... tell them all about the Transistor being an AI, but stay away from the broader implications of Cell right now - it sounds crazy, and is mostly irrelevant to their actual concerns for us at the moment.

Boriah Lee is the topic I'm having trouble deciding on - it's very relevant to at least one of our sisters jobs, and we'll feel awful if people die because we didn't share info about him. On the other hand, that stuff was told to us in confidence.

I feel like the best approach would be to talk to Ada first, let her know that maybe one of our sisters can help, and try to coax her into agreeing to share - and only then going to spill the beans.
