"Okay, Princess…" Yang began with a gleam in her lilac eyes. "Which will it be? Choose carefully, as it may be your last one this evening…"

"Oh, please, as if you scare me," the heiress scoffed. "I choose… Truth."

The combined teams of RWBY and JNPR, at both Yang and Nora's urging, were grouped together in RWBY's dorm room on a Saturday afternoon for a friendly game of Truth or Dare. All had been roped into the activity, whether through bribery of sweets or threats of proclamations of cowardice.

The boisterous blonde had, of course, taken the first go.

"Alright then," Yang grinned mischievously. "Without naming any names, both because I promised and also because you're my friend…"

"Thank you," Weiss murmured, though her ice-blue eyes were somewhat wary.

"Tell us when you are going to ask your crush out on a date!"

"Yang…" Blake sighed.

"No, it's a good question!" Yang defended herself. "I just wanna know when she's gonna woman up already!"

Ruby opened her mouth to object as well, but she was beaten to it by Weiss' soft voice.

"I already did."

"You… Wait, what?" Yang looked at her incredulously.

The heiress was sitting on the edge of her bed, gazing down at the floor. "Last night, we went out."

"You do not sound very enthusiastic about this, Weiss," Pyrrha murmured from her perch alongside Ruby and Blake on the latter's bed. "Are you alright?"

"I… Yes, I am fine. We went out, it was incredibly awkward for the both of us, and there was zero chemistry. End of story. May we move on, please?"

Ruby wordlessly moved over to sit next to her partner and wrapped a comforting arm around her. The slightly smaller white-haired girl leaned marginally against the brunette.

"Yeah, we can move on Weissy. Sorry." Yang sighed somewhat despondently. "We'll talk later, okay?"

Weiss nodded and then looked up. "Very well. Blake?"

"Hmm." The Cat Faunus returned her teammate's gaze, considering which would be safer. "I shall go with Truth as well."

Weiss gave her a little smirk. "Have you had sex yet with Ruby or Pyrrha?"

Ruby gasped and jumped off of her partner's bed. "Just for that, you lose snuggle privileges!" the brunette exclaimed before stalking back over to sit next to Blake.

Both Nora and Yang were laughing merrily, though, and gave each other a high-five. "Oh, nice one, Weiss!" the orange-haired girl cheered.

Blushing brightly, Blake twisted her hands in her lap. "No," she murmured tersely.

The turns went around the room, as a person could not direct a question back on the one who had just asked them. Finally, after having to run up and down the hall in only her bra, Nora breathlessly plopped back down on the floor. "Okay, my turn!"

"Nora, please put your shirt back on," Ren sighed.

"Spoilsport. Fine." Her voice was slightly muffled as she pulled her clothing on. "Okay, so I call triple play!"

"A what now?" Jaune asked curiously.

"Triple play! I get to ask a question, and three people must all answer the same one!"

"Oh, my, I wonder to whom this is directed towards," Blake murmured sarcastically.

"And just what do we get in return?" Pyrrha asked intently.

"Hmm…" Nora stroked her chin thoughtfully. "You may all come up with a Dare that I have to do, no matter what!"

"No matter what?" Ruby smirked.

"Yep! Do you accept the terms?"

The three girlfriends glanced at each other and quickly came to a consensus.

"Alright, Nora, but be forewarned our Dare will depend on your question," Pyrrha declared.

Nora rubbed her hands together maniacally, giggling to herself.

"Yeah, this is gonna end well," Yang chuckled.

The orange-haired girl leapt back to her feet and extended a finger, pointing to each girl in turn. "Pyrrha Nikos, Blake Belladonna, and Ruby Rose! The question you must individually answer is this!" She planted her hands on her hips and smirked widely. "Would you go all the way with your girlfriends, or would you just fool around up to that point?"

There was a shocked silence, broken only by a small "eep" from Pyrrha.

Blushing just as furiously as the others, Blake cleared her throat. "I'll go first," she said firmly. "Yes, I would have sex with them."

"Damn, Blakey," her blonde partner chuckled. "Way to take the forefront there!"

Nora, still smirking widely, raised a challenging eyebrow. "Ruby?"

The brunette had raised the hood of her cloak up over her face to conceal her matching red face. "Yes," she squeaked out.

"Was that a 'yes I'd fool around', or…" Nora prompted humorously.

"YES I WANNA HAVE SEX WITH THEM!"

The others snickered at Ruby's defiant response, though she still kept her hood up. Yang, however, had a blush to match, though she still wore a rueful grin as she shook her head resignedly.

"Very well." Nora shifted over to nail Pyrrha with her intense turquoise gaze. "Pyrrha?"

"I…" The tall redhead tugged nervously at the hem of her skirt. "I don't know."

"You don't?" Blake murmured curiously.

"I- I- I-" Pyrrha stammered helplessly, throwing her hands up in the air only to let them drop back into her lap once more. "I would not be opposed to… er… fooling around. I am not sure about… anything else. Yet. Perhaps in the future yes, but… not yet."

Nora looked as if she might press the matter further, but by now Ruby had slipped her hood back off, her face filled with determination.

"She answered your question, Nora. Now it's our turn."

"Oh, very well. Do your worst."

The three girls, brunette, raven-haired, and redhead, put their heads together, whispering furiously. After only a short amount of time, they separated, all three wearing identical smirks.

"Alright Nora," Pyrrha began. "We have a Dare for you."

"We want you," Blake continued, "to kiss Ren."

"And not just a quickie, either," Ruby finished with a mischievous twinkle in her silver eyes. "At least a full minute, and we wanna see some tongue."

The others in the room gaped at the trio incredulously.

"Wait, what?" Ren asked, perplexed.

In fact, the only one who seemed to take it all in stride was Nora.

"Whelp, sorry Ren, them's the rules," the pinkette smirked before tackling her partner to the ground.

"Mmm, good form," Blake murmured appreciatively.

"Definitely seein' some tongue there," Ruby noted with a grin.

Pyrrha giggled quietly. "Is anyone keeping track of the time?"

"Nah," the brunette answered. "It's about time this finally happened, just let 'em go."

"So is that the game, then?" Yang chuckled.

"I suppose. Unless you wanna sit by while I make out with Blake and Pyrrha?"

"Nope, nope, nope. I'm good." Yang sprang to her feet and headed towards the door, grabbing her workout bag on the way out. "See ya."

"I must say, that was the shortest game of Truth or Dare we've ever played," Weiss commented, grabbing her books. "I'll be in the library."

"Yeah…" Jaune murmured, getting to his feet as well. "I'm gonna go get some studying in too. Can I join you, Weiss?"

"Certainly."

Left alone with the new couple, still engaged in their rather intense makeout session, Blake let out a soft sigh. "So, what do you guys feel like doing?"

"Well," Ruby smirked. "Pyrrha's room is empty now."

The three of them shared eager grins as they leapt from the bed and hurried out the door, careful to close it behind them.

A/N: Yeah that was the shortest ship ever. Sank right outta port, sorry White Rabbit fans. (Special apologies to Gorsouul.) I got other plans for Weiss, have no fear. (Wait, what was that? Did I hear cries of joy from Freezerburn shippers? Hmm…) And hey, at least we have Renora, which is the first time I've actually written that into a story. Go, me.

I do want to take a moment and address the use of 'kitten' by Yang, per prompting by TacoKing23. I write the blonde as a deeply caring person who shows her love by teasing, and she does indeed care for her partner deeply, like another sister if you will. So the 'kitten' is just her way of ribbing Blake in a non-mean-spirited way, showing her acceptance of her Faunus heritage and her as a person. Blake knows this, and her protests are rudimentary and part of the banter, else she would truly get irritated, or at the very least both Ruby and Pyrrha would speak up. Initially I brought it in as a running gag, but it's grown on me as symbolic of Blake and Yang's sisterly relationship. See, even for fluff there can be deeper meaning. So long as it's fluffy.

NEWS UPDATE: So, tomorrow is Friday of Easter weekend. I'm actually, as of right now, out of my buffer, as I decided to go back and finish up my MCU story (the guilt was eating away at was left of my soul). Therefore, Thorns will go on a brief hiatus to resume on Monday, while I do some mad writing. Words shall fly, and the fluff shall build to inconceivable heights. (Yes I do have the outlines all set for Thorns for the next ten chapters or so, no worries, just need to set the words down to keyboard.)

In any case - much love for keeping up with my fluffy little crack ship, and I hope it continues to entertain. Hugs for the favorites, follows, and reviews (and holy carp were there a lot of reviews from the last chapter)!

chaosglory626: But… the fluff! It is fluffy! I think we can safely assume that of the three of them, Ruby would be the one with a massive hangover. And we can sit back and imagine her being coddled and snuggled by Blake and Pyrrha until she feels better. (Also, no removing of clothes, that's what A Thorny Bind is for.)

growlscout: Thanks! I do try to keep both stories relevant to each other, and I'm glad you picked up on that particular juxtaposition with the different attitudes towards their bathroom habits.

DarkbladerX666: Eh, I went more the fluffy route than the antics. This one better for you?

Gorsouul: Friskiness abounded. And it was good.

THB4: I think perhaps Yang just realized it would be awkward for Blake and Pyrrha to help Ruby to go to the bathroom. She stepped up like the good big sister she is.

Boarador: Heh. No worries, glad you enjoy it!

Kalomin: That's an interesting point, but I could have sworn that a higher metabolism actually equates to a higher alcohol tolerance. Though I did a little more research and, from what I can now tell… they're completely unrelated. A higher metabolism does not affect how alcohol affects the brain. Go figure.

ILikeHotDogs: It's all those cookies, soakin' up the booze.

Jazzatron: Fear not, I'll still have updates for A Thorny Bind…

FelipeCH98: That… would actually be adorable. I think, though, if Ruby were to bring up the subject of children at this stage it would freak the Dust outta them.

TacoKing23: Drunk Pyrrha gettin' back to her roots… And yeah Blake may think she's a sneaky little kitty but Ruby's got her number already.

Stay shiny!
