- Schneider's Potrayal Description

Verneider is the femslash ship between Vertin and Schneider from the Reverse: 1999 fandom.

Background
Schneider comes from a big family, consisting of her, 2 uncles, 12 older sisters and their mother and father. Her parents originates from Sicily, who emigrated aftter WWl. They had a family orchard, were they grew oranges before moving to the bid city. Her parents are very religious too.

As revealed in "El Oro de los Tigres", Schneider tried to join the St. Pavlov Fundation but was rejected, with a henious letter. The reasons for this rejections are unknown, but it's possible because: she apparents an arcanist or she's an immigrant.

Vertin was found as a baby by the St. Pavlov Foundation and was always intriged about the outside world. She posses a special gene that allows her to not suffer the effects from "The Storm", a fenomena that distorts reality and turns humanity back in time.

In Our Time
In canon, Schneider and Vertin first meet of the 14 of February of 1929. Schneider would appear as an enemy, killing three humans that intented to kill arcanist at an underground party. Schneider does not seem to care of human life at that point, saying that arcanist's life is more important than a human's.

Schneider is a contracted killer of the "Manus Vindictae", an organitation opossed to that of St. Pavlov Fundation, the organitation that oposses the Manus.

Schneider and Vertin meet again in Forget Me Not's speak-easy were Schneider and Vertin are made to fight to the death with the former's gun. Even aftter getting shottedmultiple times, Vertin denys the possibility of using a "floppy disk", an enchanted object containing a spell, that would blast at Schneider, possibly killing or major injuring her.

Sonetto and Sotheby come in through a crack in the wall, stoping them both from continuing to fight.

As the story continues, we discover that Schneider is working with the Manus to find one of her 12 elder sisters, called Marian. It is later revealed that the manus had actually kidnapped her to force Schneider to work for them. Aftter discovering this, Schneider would later betray the organitation.

Sotheby, Sonetto and an unconcious Marian scape with a car, while Schneider and Vertin are left to handle themselves against Manus subordinates. They eventually loose against Druvis lll. Before being taken away, Schneider says that one of them will die aftter this and she implores Vertin to kill her when it comes the moment, shooting her in the heart.

Tender is the Night
Aftter being taken away Arcana, leader of the Manus Vindictae, Vertin is interrogated but whenever she gives an unsatisfactory awnser Schneider gets shot.

Aftter 3 questions, Arcana takes Scheneider one of her guns and tells Vertin to shot her to death. She refuses, so Arcana uses mental manipulating to show her an ilusion of picking oranges with Schneider when she was a child.

As Schneider is being shoted, Vertin re-awakens and stop shooting her but Schneider, knowing that this is the only way they both scape, runs towards Vertin and gets shoted in the heart. Her body is taken away somewhere in the same area where her sister was being held, and is left there.

A few hours later, Vertin, finds Schneider's body and is revealed that she survived being fatally wounded. Vertin tells her the current plan before going away, to continue with the same plan.

Schneider and her will now spend a few hours away from each other, Schneider being healed by Sotheby and spending some time with her sister Marian.

Aftter a very long fight with the Manus Vindictae, Schneider and Vertin reunite under the rainfall, were Schneider knees down to her and gives Vertin "a reward". It's heavily implied they kissed, but because of Schneider's umbrella we don't know get to see it for sure.

The Storm is aproaching, so Vertin starts gathering wishes from all the poeple that has helped her troughout the day. Schneider'swish is "Do not forget me". While having dinner with everyone, The Storm starts taking the humans away. At this moment, Schneider runs towards Vertin and reveals that she is not an arcanist meaning that she will be "reversed" alongside all other humans.

Her last words were: "Do not forget my heartbeat on the right".
