"What time is it?" Yang asked in a singsong voice, her enthusiasm overflowing.

"Yang, please..." Weiss moaned, already bracing for the inevitable outcome.

"FRIDAY FAMILY FUN NIGHT!" Ruby exclaimed, jumping up enthusiastically. Blake rolled her eyes, slipping a bookmark into the latest volume of the Ninjas of Love series, knowing that trying to resist Yang and Ruby's idea of a fun evening was futile.

"What game did you get for us tonight?" Weiss asked resignedly, also setting aside her schoolwork and turning her attention to the sisters.

"Since it is getting close to the holiday season..." Yang began, a mischievous smirk on her face. "I thought we'd have a little more 'fun' than usual!" She pulled two bottles out from under her bedsheets. One was an empty beer bottle, the other was a rather large and elegant-looking crystal bottle of vodka.

"Yang..." Blake said, looking askance at the supplies. "I openly admit that I'm a pervert, but isn't this taking it a little too far?"

"Don't misunderstand me!" Yang hurriedly backpedaled, seeing murder in both Blake's and Weiss' eyes. "I was planning on playing Truth or Dare! The bottle determines who you ask, so no one can pick on anyone else!"

"And the vodka?" Weiss asked dangerously.

"It's the forfeit system" Yang explained, trying to make it sound reasonable. "If you don't want to answer a truth, do a dare, or if the bottle lands on you when it's your turn, you take a shot."

"Setting aside the fact that underage drinking is illegal..." Weiss began, her anger beginning to boil. "You would rope even your little sister into this?!"

"I made her a tray of super sugary cookies!" Yang added, tugging at her sheets to reveal a plate of cookies covered in cellophane. "They have the same effect on her!"

"You've put a surprising amount of thought into this..." Blake muttered, rubbing her chin.

"Indeed" Weiss agreed, her anger only slightly mollified. "Though I'm not surprised that you used whatever resides within your skull that has the effrontery to call itself a brain to set up such a pointless game!"

"Think of it as a trust building exercise" Ruby unexpectedly joined in. "If you don't want to be put into a compromising situation yourself, don't do it to the rest of us. Truth or Dare can be a tame game, you know." The last sentence was more directed at her sister, and everyone in the room knew that Ruby had just saved Yang's bacon.

"Yeah" Yang quickly agreed, mentally scratching off half her dare list. "That's exactly what I was going for..."

"Good save, Xiao Long" Weiss grumbled, knowing that since Ruby now supported the game, there was no possible way she could wiggle out of it.

"We might as well get on with it..." Blake sighed, kneeling on the floor and snatching the beer bottle from Yang.

"Hey!" Yang exclaimed, trying to snatch it back as she sat on Blake's left.

"I personally believe that the first person to go should not be the one with the lewdest mind" Blake stated calmly, the bottle already spinning as Weiss and Ruby sat down. "The first few rounds typically define the tone of the game, and I want this to be as painless as possible..."

Blake trailed off, realizing that the bottle had landed on herself. Sighing again, she reached out and took the bottle of vodka (the cap of which conveniently served as a small shot glass) and measured out the first forfeit of the game. She knocked it back in one go, surprising everyone when she barely reacted to the strong drink.

"What?" she asked innocently. "We drank in the White Fang, it was a rather unhealthy coping mechanism for some of us." Everyone nodded, and Blake passed the bottle to Ruby, who was on her right. The crimsonette eagerly gave it a whirl, and it took a good minute and a half before it finally stopped on Blake.

"Truth or Dare?" Ruby asked excitedly.

"Truth" Blake responded, still wanting to keep the game tame and hoping her leader did as well.

"What is your ribbon made out of?" Ruby asked, her eyes twinkling.

"A dust-infused silk/spandex mix" Blake explained, for once glad that Ruby was a weapons fanatic. Ruby passed the bottle off to Weiss, who spun it with a grimace.

"Dare" Yang said confidently, seeing the bottle stop on her and not bothering to wait for Weiss to ask the question.

"For the rest of the game, whatever you dare someone else to do, you must also do yourself" Weiss stated after a moment's thought. Blake nodded, hoping that it would keep Yang from being too inappropriate.

"Forfeit" Yang said cheerily, pouring herself a shot of vodka and downing it with a slight cough. Weiss and Blake both internally cursed, having forgotten the forfeit system. Yang snatched the bottle and set it spinning, and it landed on Weiss.

"Truth or Dare?" Yang asked, thinking of options that would make the heiress squirm.

"Truth" Weiss predictably replied.

"Who was your first kiss, or, if you haven't had it yet, who do you want it to be with?" Yang asked.

"My sister" Weiss replied flatly, causing everyone's jaw to drop.

"Wha...?" Ruby and Yang began, and Blake looked at her with a new measure of respect.

"Don't jump to conclusions" Weiss huffed. "Winter was always a sickly child, and after my father became what he is today, we were all we had. I humored her every request, and one was that she wanted her first kiss to be with someone she loved, not some rich boy who wanted a share in our father's company. We both knew that finding a boy who truly loved her was next to impossible, so I volunteered."

Ruby nodded, knowing the importance that love held to young girls. Yang was impressed that Weiss had been so willing to answer, given her usual icy demeanor. Blake, who had assumed that the story had been something along those lines, took it as an excuse to view Weiss in a different light than the one the White Fang had forced on her. Not forgetting that they were in the middle of a game, however, Blake took the bottle and gave it a spin, idly watching the tip as it gently slowed to a stop, pointing to Yang.

"Truth or...?"

"Dare"

"Hmm..." Blake muttered, trying to think of something good. "I dare you to ask Ren on a date. It doesn't matter if he says yes or no." Yang winked and stood up, casually walking over to Team JNPR's dorm and knocking.

"Yes?" Ren replied, opening the door.

"Hey~" Yang said seductively, looping her arms around Ren's neck. "Want to have dinner sometime? Just you and me?" Ren looked at her with his trademark deadpan expression. Jaune sputtered in the background, evidently choking on something as Pyrrha took the opportunity to pound him on the back. Nora was busy studying a stack of papers, oblivious to the world.

"No" He said, slipping out from under Yang's embrace and moving to shut the door. "Anything else?"

"Nope" Yang replied, waltzing back to Team RWBY's dorm and shutting the door. As soon as she resumed her seat, Ruby had the bottle spinning. It landed on herself, and she cheered as Yang was forced to pass her a cookie, which she promptly devoured in a shower of crumbs. Weiss took the bottle and spun, landing it on Ruby.

"Truth or Dare?" Weiss asked, already growing bored with the game.

"Dare" Ruby replied happily.

"Defy physics" Weiss said, unable to think of anything else and curious to see how Ruby would respond. Without a second thought, Ruby sprinted onto the ceiling, where she stood upside-down for a good three seconds before falling back to the ground.

"Semblance?" Weiss asked, seeing a few rose petals falling gently.

"Semblance" Ruby replied, neither of them noticing Yang spinning the bottle until it landed on Weiss.

"Truth or Dare?" Yang asked. Weiss was about to reply with her stock answer of 'truth' when she noticed Ruby looking at her with her large puppy eyes.

"Dare..." Weiss muttered, equally afraid of Yang's imagination, the bottle of vodka, and Ruby's expression.

"Take a shot" Yang grinned, proffering the bottle. Weiss glared, but took the bottle and downed her first shot of alcohol.

[Several Rounds Later]

By now, everyone had paid multiple forfeits, and it showed. Yang was grinning and far less coordinated than usual. Ruby was jittering in her seat, eager to move but just as eager to get more of the cookies that counted as her forfeit. Weiss was struggling to focus her vision, unwilling to appear weak while intoxicated. Blake had long since abandoned her reserved shell, a blush permeating her cheeks as she eagerly spun the bottle, which stopped on Ruby."

"Truth or Dare?" Blake asked enthusiastically, a mischievous grin on her face.

"Dare" Ruby replied, hoping it was horrible so she could get another cookie.

"Have you had your first kiss?" Blake asked, wanting to make sure her dare was good enough.

"No...but that's not a dare!" Ruby belatedly realized.

"It was conversation" Blake dismissed. "As for your dare, kiss someone in this room, in any way you want. No one can say no." Yang and Weiss glared at Blake, but she shrugged it off. "She has to grow up sometime."

"Umm..." Ruby muttered, uncertain of who to kiss. Choosing Yang would just be awkward, since they were both sisters, so that left Weiss and Blake. Weiss would probably explode with if she kissed her, but intoxicated Blake had a mildly pervy look in her eyes that Ruby wanted nothing to do with.

"Can I take a forfeit?" she asked. Yang reached behind her for the cookies, only to discover that the plate was empty.

"Nope" Yang replied. "The cookie plate is empty."

"Just pick someone" Blake asserted, her blush growing a little more. Ruby jittered a little to buy time, before making up her mind. Deciding that she would rather face Weiss' wrath than Blake's drunken libido, she lunged forward and planted a kiss solidly on Weiss' lips.

"Can I pick the lock?" Jaune asked, curious as to what lay inside the next room.

"You can try~" Nora beamed from behind a small wall of books that protected her hidden documents from view. Jaune glanced at Ren, who nodded slightly. Nora was crazy, but even she went easy on new players. Jaune rolled the d20, smiling as the result came out as nineteen.

"You successfully pick the lock" Nora began, shuffling a few papers. "And the door before slowly creaks open. As you and the party look in, a small gust of wind blows out, accompanied by..."

"YEEEEEEAAAAAARRRRRRRGGGHHH!" A wild beserker scream came from Team RWBY's dorm, and Nora looked up happily as everyone else started in surprise.

"By a scream that sounded very much like that!" she exclaimed, continuing on with her narrative. "The source of the yells are..."

"I'M GOING TO MURDER YOU, XIAO LONG!" Weiss shrieked.

"I DELETED IT, I SWEAR!" Yang shouted back, a note of terror in her voice.

"...a charging barbarian, who has been exploring these mines ever since he lost his way..."

"BLAKE! HELP ME HOLD THEM DOWN!" Ruby shouted, sounding like she was trying to restore order.

"Do you think we should help them?" Jaune asked Pyrrha, who shook her head slightly.

"Yang snuck in alcohol" she explained. "So whatever is happening over there, we don't want to know."

"I use Stunning Fist" Ren calmly stated, one eyebrow raised at his roll. "With a natural twenty, apparently."

"The barbarian is stunned and close to death" Nora replied, running damage calculations for Ren's attack and his critical bonus.

"OH DUST, BLAKE?! WHAT ARE YOU DOING?!" Weiss exclaimed, accompanied by drunken giggling.

"WILL YOU SHUT UP?!" Nora exclaimed into the hallway, furious as she tallied the damage from Pyrrha and Jaune's combined basic attacks. Team RWBY went deadly silent, and Nora smiled.

"The barbarian dies" she continued cheerily. "How do you proceed?"
