Hello.
Thanks, you for your attention.
But first, notes on the story "Relationship."
The notes to the second chapter of the story:
Jaune expected the girls's answers after the bout.
It wasn't Blake who was waiting for Weiss's answer for Jaune.
\e\
And Blake didn't hear all of Weiss and Jaune's dialogue. In library.
But even without that, she could guess what happened by looking at Jaune and Weiss after that.
\e\
Later I noticed this inaccuracy in one word in the text. Correct in the phrase:
"…their dialogue she saw a little and did not hear it"
Well, only a day later I supplemented the data for the existing information about this change in the annotation to the fic for the fic stand on the site.
Sorry, I noticed it late, and then the end of the story was more dramatic.
But, maybe someone liked it?
\e\
And did you notice that the story of "Relationships" is connected with my other stories? I wrote about it, but not so much.
Could it be a spoiler..? Well, these are "Motivation", "Duel" (+ additional chapter "collide") and "The Kiss".
"Yeeah" if you guessed right.
\e\
"…without them not-a-pair" it is Nora and Ren, of course.

Notes about story "The Sight" (in the meaning of "spectacle", not "views").
The events of this story take place before the events of the story "The Kiss".
But this story did not affect Jaune for the story "The Kiss".
The word "bout", which does not have the meaning of "fight".
NEW: I would add the teg "Psychology" or "Reflections" or something similar.
New: Clarification: If you are reading an Optional Addition to the story, then the events of this story occur after the events of the story "The Dance" (after the second chapter). There Yang suggested (in a joking way) Jaune has a date or to ask her (it is Yang) to dance on the evening of dancing in Bacon.
THE BEGINNING OF THE STORY
A bout takes place in the Beacon arena.
Jaune defends himself from his opponent's shots with his shield, and in response approaches his opponent with his sword. The swing of his blade meets the slender blade of Neptune's three-pointed weapon...
-e-
If you look at it from the outside, if you add a net to the owner of the trident...
"Come on, Neptune! Defeat him," Yang shouts.
At the same time, taking advantage of the distance after retreating from his opponent, Jaune looks at Weiss - she is silent. (She was looking away, at the floor of the arena).
... then it turns out there is no telling who will win.
-e-
Yang can cheer for whoever she wants to cheer for, but Weiss... who will she support?
-e-
After the victory is announced, Jaune, leaving the arena, looks at the stands:
Pyrrha's face expressionless, Weiss still pale [as at the beginning of the bout], Ruby... Yang's push drowned her out... and emotion - only one girl has the corners of her lips slightly raised.
-E-
At the end of the bouts, he walked up to Yang and asked:
"Is this one your doing?"
"Why?" Yang looks at him.
"You performed, and I realized that... it was you who arranged the fight."
"And if I didn't support Neptune, then what would you think…" she asks him.
"Then I don't know...
Optional addition to the story:
"Exactly," Yang smiles.
"I didn't expect... maybe you did after all..." she continues and pauses.
They were standing in one of the academy hallways.
"No."
"Ohh," Yang rolls her eyes (and looks at him), "look, I won't always offer."
The End
Who was that girl who smiled at Jaune...
