The three of them, Nora, Yang, and Drake stayed where they were. Behind that supply shed, just talking. Mainly about how big Drake's family was, and where they were. Yang was still curled up on Drake's lap, having him run his fingers through her hair. Though the dragon Faunus was taking great care to not pull on her locks, as he knew how protective she was of her hair.
"So, you said you're from Mistral?" Nora had recovered enough, and had managed to crawl over to the two, head now resting on Drake's right shoulder.
"Born there." He answered, giving the bubbly ginger girl a pat on her head. Making her giggle slightly drunkenly. She obviously hadn't made the recovery that Yang had. Though Yang's semblance had to have played a role in that. "Mom, dad, and my seventeen other siblings moved to Vale, with a few uncles and aunts."
"Seventeen?" Nora whistled in an impressed fashion. "I'm guessing you're number eighteen?"
"Yup, and it's about to be twenty. Mom's pregnant with twins." Nora blinked in surprise, then began to giggle uncontrollably.
"Oh Oum, now I know why Pyrrha wanted to start this harem!" The ginger girl was positively howling with laughter, and it was a long time before she was able to calm down. Though when she did, Nora was still hiccuping with giggles, similar to how Drake and Yang were after going back and forth between their little war of innuendos. "You're gonna have such a large family."
"But that brings up something I forgot to ask." Both Nora and Drake turned their attention back to Yang, who had fixed Drake with a curious look. "Why did your family move from Mistral?"
Drake's response was prefaced with a dry laugh. "You think Atlas is bad with their treatment of Faunus? Well, you're right. It's bad. But that's because of Weiss' fuckstick of a father, and the super elite of the kingdom. And before this goes any further, I don't have anything against Weiss. Because, aside from that one thing you told me about…" Drake gestured to Yang with his free hand. "Weiss hasn't treated any of us Faunus the way we expected. Getting back on topic, in Mistral, it doesn't matter if you're rich or dirt broke. Most humans hate Faunus with a passion. So, mom and dad had enough of it, and moved."
"So why date Pyrrha?" Nora asked, brow furrowed. "She's from Mistral…"
"She's from Argus." Drake corrected. "That's right on the border between Mistral and Atlas. Also, Pyrrha has never treated me like anything other than an equal. Plus, I've never seen her as "The Invincible Girl," or a Mistrali. Pyrrha's just an absolute sweetheart, and really pleasant to be around."
Both Nora and Yang had bright smiles on their faces. They both realized that what Pyrrha had said about the dragon Faunus was right. Even though he had a bit of an intimidating/bad boy look to him, he really was a total sweetheart.
"Also, can I ask you two for a favor?"
"Threesome?" Both Drake and Yang were sputtering with laughter, much to Nora's confusion. "...what?"
Drake held up a finger. Indicating he needed a moment, as Nora had sounded just so excited about that concept. "...maybe later Nora. But…" He paused for another round of laughter, which only made Yang laugh harder in response, which in turn made Nora begin to giggle. "Okay… okay… I think I'm good. What I'd like your help with, is convincing Pyrrha to join our campaign of Hunters and Halfwits."
Yang was still laughing, and only laugh harder in response. But her tone when speaking next, sounded good natured. "Oum, you're such a total goof! But I'll help, only if I can get in too!"
"Same here!" Nora sounded rather excited, as she loved tabletop games.
Drake's smile matched Yang's. "You two have a deal, now come on. We can't stay here all day."
The three walked about campus, with Drake taking them to a restaurant hidden in the campus hardly anyone knew about. The only reason the dragon Faunus knew about it was thanks to his friendship with Coco. Which earned him some playful looks from Yang and Nora. "...what?"
"You think she thinks of you as more of a friend?" Yang winked at him flirtatiously, though Drake shook his head in response.
"Adel isn't interested in me like that." He responded as a fairly attractive kitsune Faunus served them. "And let's just leave it at that. Not my place to discuss that." He took a bite out of his tuna nigiri, when he became aware of someone hovering over him. Not even looking up, or over his shoulder, he simply looked to Yang. "Blake's right behind me isn't she?"
"Yep." Yang answered simply, and gave him a wink before returning to her food.
With a playful roll of his eyes, Drake surrendered the piece of nigiri by holding it over his shoulder. Only for Blake to give his cheek a kiss, before practically inhaling her boyfriend's offering. "Either you felt a disturbance in the Force, or you smelled the tuna."
"It can't be both?" Blake asked while taking a seat next to Drake.
"Firstly, if you're Force sensitive, and you have a lightsaber, that means you've been holding out on all of us." He fixed Blake with a playful accusatory glare. "And that's gonna put a serious dent in our relationship."
"And her stealing your food isn't?" Yang laughed, while Blake eyed his plate hungrily.
"Hey, I knew what I signed up for." Came Drake's response, as he fed Blake another piece of his nigiri. "And it's kinda my fault, for ordering this while knowing one of my girlfriends is a Jedi-slash-ninja." He chuckled a bit, before his attention back to the cat Faunus in question. "Seriously though, do you have a lightsaber?"
In response, Blake nudged him with her elbow in a playful manner. "If I did, you would have known about it by now."
"...fair point." He said, before making to take a piece of his lunch for himself … but was soon fixed with Blake's kitty eyes, and with a reluctant sigh, he fed it to her. "And that's what I get for ordering this. With her around I'm never gonna get a bite in edge-wise."
"Oh shut up, you love me." Blake kissed his cheek, pouting softly when she saw Drake get a piece of the lunch he had ordered.
"Ehhh. Not so sure about-bwaa!" Both Nora and Yang laughed when Drake got tackled by Blake into the booth the now four of them were sitting at. She began to run her hands along his sides, making the dragon Faunus laugh yet again. He had laughed so much today, that he didn't know if he could be able to laugh again after this. But unfortunately for him, Blake had just found out that he was very ticklish.
"Okay, okay! Hahaha! No, stop! I surrender!" Drake laughed, and pleaded with the cat Faunus, and a smug smile appeared on Blake's face, who relented moments later. Right before stealing another piece of his tuna nigiri.
Drake was shaking when he sat back up, still recovering from the tickle attack from one of his other girlfriends, and was greeted with another platter of tuna nigiri. The same kitsune Faunus smiled, giving him a knowing look and one of her nine long fluffy tails pointing to Blake. "On the house."
"Thanks Willow." Drake managed to get out. He was holding his stomach thanks to Blake … and Yang and Nora making him laugh earlier. "Ever laugh so hard, you get a headache?" The question was met with nods, and a few giggles. Obviously Drake's suffering was highly amusing to the three girls.
After taking the half eaten plate for himself, Drake slid the full plate that the patron of the hidden restaurant had given to him, over to Blake. Much to her surprise, and enjoyment if her feline ears perking up was any indication.
Lunch was paid for by Drake, who assured the three girls that he could afford it. Nora skipped off, no doubt making good on her help to attempt to convince Pyrrha to join in the Hunters and Halfwits campaign. Something that was also brought to Blake's attention, who was also expressing interest in joining.
"Maybe we should also convince Weiss and Ruby to join?" Blake asked, which made Drake and Yang immediately focus on the cat Faunus.
"Please tell me…" Drake began.
"You're talking about the campaign?" Yang finished.
"Yeah…" Blake looked in between the two, clearly confused. "What did you think I was talking a-" She stopped in mid-sentence. Cat ears slicking back so they were practically plastered to her head, upon the realization of what the two thought she meant. "...oh. Oh Oum!" She was then bright red in the face, and thought about just melting into the nearby wall.
"Okay, come on." Drake guided the cat Faunus back towards the dorms. "I've got player books, and character sheets. We're gonna figure out what we're gonna play as for the campaign, and forget this moment ever happened." A smile crossed his face, as Blake relaxed at the thought of completely forgetting what had just come out of her mouth.
"So, let me get this straight…" Yang's brow creased. The three, Drake, Yang, and Blake were in an unused classroom that had been made into an unofficial game room by many of the students that had come before. Drake had made a quick stop by his dorm, grabbing all the books that he had on in regards to the tabletop game. Yang was looking at the player's handbook that Drake was flipping between, going from Berserker to Dragonbirthed. "You fight more like a Monk, yet you're going with Berserker?"
Drake nodded, now looking between the pages, dice, and jotting information down on his character sheet. "Yeah, don't wanna hit too close to home. Besides, Berserker's are fun. And weren't you planning on multi-classing between Monk and Berserker?"
"He's got a point there." Blake's face was buried in a second player's handbook, Drake having multiple copies. Her golden eyes darted to peek at his character sheet, and she ended up chuckling. She had just seen what Drake's character intelligence roll was, and a roll of 6 was both amusing and fitting given the character he was playing.
"What's going on here?" All three then turned to see Orchard standing in the doorway, Cloud and Lumina standing behind her. "Told them about the campaign huh?"
"They were gonna find out anyways." Drake simply shrugged in response, earning a noncommittal shrug by the snow leopard Faunus, who took a seat at the table the three were occupying.
"An intelligence of six?" Lumina tilted her head, looking over Drake's character sheet.
"Who has an intelligence of six?" Pyrrha's melodious voice reached Drake's ears. The Mistrali, as well as the rest of Team JNPR, including Weiss and Ruby had turned up. Either Nora had informed them all, or Weiss and Ruby had overheard. Either way, this was going to be an interesting campaign.
