Summary
Spoilers for Volume 3 onwards.
"In the upper layer of his house — Oscar saw through the window, with his own hazel-coloured eyes: An explosion, far into the distance. It was gigantic, a massive ball of flames that engulfed a far away city, followed by smoke a few minutes later. Terrifyingly, he came to understand at that moment — that it wasn’t the only explosion, as it took a single look towards the reddish smoke-filled sky to understand, and see, other trails of fire far into the distance, behind the hills, over the sea that separated Mistral from Vale.
That explosion… It came from Beacon Academy… Hadn’t it?
What was going on?"

Summary
Weiss gently squeezes Ruby's hand, and she can feel her throat tightening. "I'm your partner. I want to be here for you. I never want you to go through what you felt in the Ever After again."
Ruby's voice is so quiet it may as well have been the building settling: "That's the first time you've talked about it."

Summary
“Can’t sleep?” It’s posed as a question, but Weiss knows it isn’t, knows that Ruby knows her better than that and it shows when Ruby doesn’t wait for an answer, her voice soft and tired. Ruby’s cheek comes to rest gently against the top of her head and Weiss swears she can feel the pain inside of her, can hear the nightmares that plague her as she speaks, her words more weighted than they should be. “I can’t either.”
/////
Alternatively, Weiss wakes up and Ruby's gone, so she goes outside to breathe. From there, feelings happen.

Summary
In the courtyard of the Schnee Estate, Ruby and Nora help Penny realize she has a soul within her, that she’s always been more than a machine. Ruby calls Jaune over to empower Penny’s Aura with his Semblance, but he says: “I can’t just boost her Aura forever”
The eventual conclusion of this is to take Penny to the Vault where the Relic is stored, and then wish upon Ambrosius to “make a new version of her, using her exact same robot parts.”
But what if things went a different way?
Willpower is quite possibly the strongest thing at Humanity and Faunus-kind’s (peoples/persons) disposal—the tool that allowed them to survive and in some ways thrive in the presence of relentless Grimm attacks and total domination of the world by the creatures of Darkness.
Penny has Aura. Penny has a soul. Penny is a person. Penny has willpower.
It’s thanks to Jaune she realizes this, and thanks to Ruby and Nora that she realizes she’s been a person since she was first created. Penny doesn’t need to be ‘human’ to be “real”, nor be ‘real’ to be “human”. She just is, as she always has been. The miracle of Pietro’s work.

Weiss’s long, dexterous fingers play her just like one of her instruments, melodies flowing out of her as she commands it, controls the tempo and dominates her tune. Weiss always composes the most beautiful songs and this one is no different.
