Ask Weiss what she means.
"What do you mean by dirty blood?" Ruby questions.
"To be honest? I don't know. That just seems like the best wording. I see something. It's not literally blood…Still, that blood is unclean, and should be avoided."
"Can- Can you look at us, and see if anybody else has dirty blood?" Ruby asks.
"No problem. I'll give it a shot." Weiss slowly looks around the room and examines everyone present. "Ruby is clean. Professor Goodwitch is clean. Blake!" She says with some delight. "Blake is clean. Velvet is clean. Ren has dirty blood." She finishes.
Ask Weiss if she remembers anything of when BRK captured her.
"Hmm…I remember, vaguely." She says with a hand on her chin. "I was frightened, but I couldn't move at all. It took me here." She gestured around the classroom. "I was paralyzed. My emotions seemed distant, like a fading echo. I felt fear, but it was only a faint whisper. My body was numb, and soon, my emotions, too, were gone. The creature slathered its hand in blood and touched it to me…It burned. I don't remember anything after that. It's almost like I've been in a dreamless sleep. I know time has passed, but I remember none of it. My last memory might as well have happened mere seconds ago. I was just…gone. Erased."
Why aren't you hugging Weiss yet?
As the thought emerged, Ruby began to approach Weiss eagerly. Sensing her, Weiss raised an arm in front of her to keep some distance between them.
"Don't touch me without warning, thanks." She said.
Ruby raised her hands up in apology. "Sorry! I didn't mean to…"
"…Just ask first, or let me know so I can prepare." Weiss said softly, lowering her arm.
"Oh ok…Can we hug?" Ruby asked, spreading her arms with anticipation.
"…Yeah sure."
Weiss seems tense at the idea of being touched, but given some time to prepare she reaches out and hugs Ruby.
The embrace is warm and welcoming, and Ruby makes the most of it. She holds Weiss close to her, trying not to grip the other girl too tightly, but still fearful that she would be told to let go. Ruby burrows her face into Weiss' neck, breathing in her scent and feeling her pulse beat against her skin. She missed this. The thought made Ruby smile, and she could feel Weiss smiling against her collar.
Remember that stuff about smooching Weiss?
It's time to smooch Weiss.
As much as she wanted to stay in this embrace, Ruby gently pulled herself away from Weiss.
"Do you mind if I touch your face?" She quietly asked.
"That's fine." Weiss smiles as Ruby brings her hand up against her cheek. She caresses Weiss' cheek with her thumb, who hums silently in content at the motion.
Ruby leans in closer, their foreheads touching. She feels nervous. "Is it okay if I kiss you?" Ruby whispers.
Weiss giggles lightly and tilts her towards Ruby. "Yes."
Ruby moves down to meet Weiss' lips. They're so soft. Ruby blushes as she realizes that she's actually kissing Weiss. She believed that she would never get to feel this sensation, with all that has been happening.
The kiss was gentle and Ruby was careful not to become too needy for more. She closed her eyes to enjoy the final moment before they parted. Ruby's face matched the color of her namesake as she tried to catch her breath. Weiss' tinging pink as she looked away with a shy smile.
Introduce King and 3D to Weiss.
Once Ruby recovered her wits, she decided to properly introduce Weiss to 3D and King.
"My name is King." He gave her a friendly wave. Ruby noticed he had attained more thorns upon his head. They were forming in a circle, like a crown.
"Hey new buddy! I'm 3D." She waved enthusiastically, holding her severed hand up as well.
"Um, hi." Weiss waved back.
Ask your girlfriend if she can see other things.
Can she see more than just people?
Weiss looks to one side of the room. "I can't see a thing." She lifts an arm out and gazes down at it. "If I try, I can see blood. It's bright. Mine is clean too. I can't see anything beyond this room right now."
Check Weiss' inventory.
Weiss shows that the only things she carrying are her weapon, Mrytenaster, and some scraps of paper.
Alright we found Weiss!
Are we gonna leave Beacon or what?
King looks at Ruby with disbelief when she says these thoughts aloud.
"H-Hey, not so fast. You can't just leave. Turning off the dome while things are still like this inside is…It would be the end of the world." He reminded them. "Before that dome falls, every dirty thing must be eliminated. I mean, it's obvious, we can't let this infection out! So, eliminate us all. Of course, that includes us as well." King looked down gravely as he said this. "When the time comes, erase us."
"I suppose it really is better that way." 3D said with a forced smile.
Weiss must be tired.
Ask if she wants to take a nap.
"…I would appreciate that." Weiss says when Ruby voices her thoughts.
"Okay! Let's head back to the office one more time so Weiss can get some sleep." Ruby rallied the others.
"Good idea." King stated.
"I agree." Glynda voiced.
"Yes, definitely." Blake said.
As everyone began filing out of the classroom Velvet trailed behind them slowly. She stopped in the doorway to look back in the classroom, gazing at the mutilated body that Weiss couldn't see, and that everyone had ultimately ignored. She then turns back to follow the others.
On their way Weiss' voice catches everyone's attention.
"G-Guys? What…" Weiss stood above Back Rank Knight's body, looking down at its bloody form. "What happened here?" She sounded utterly confused. "Did you seriously kill Jaune right here?"
