All I can say is that there will be some people getting together later in the story. I won't put any pairings because it ruins the mystery of who gets with who, plus as of right know everyone is too young for any kind of real relationship. I'd also like to address the whole touching someone's face thing with a simple (it's anime logic).
Qrow waited patiently at the docks with yang and by patiently that meant he was pacing back and forth like a worried mother. Yang ignored her uncle and focused on the incoming boat that held the four students she would be going to class with. Once the boat docked, three individuals quickly disembarked and made their way over to them with their luggage trailing just behind them. Qrow cocked his head to the side "I thought pharos academy was sending four kids, not two and a half".
Neo glared at Qrow for his jab at her height while Coco looked back to the boat "oh are fourth is here but he's a little sick from the boat ride". Yang just couldn't help but laugh "if he's that weak he might as well not even bother trying to become a huntsmen". Neo aimed her parasol at yang "I'd be careful of how you talk about neo's boy toy, that's unless your trying to pick a fight with pharoses tiny demon" Coco chuckle as neo aimed her parasol at Coco's face.
Velvet ignored the four of them and decided jaune might actually need some help, placing her bags down, she ran back onboard the boat. Several minutes passed before velvet returned with jaune draped over her shoulder like he was hungover. Yangs eye's widened at the site of the blonde headed boy, she pulled on Qrow's sleeve to get his attention "uncle Qrow doesn't he look just like Saphron's dad from that picture you have".
Qrow's eye's trailed from his niece to the young man who was blushing profusely as the rabbit faunus fussed over him. There was no mistaking that face, Qrow's eye's drifted to his scroll as the screen came to life revealing a file given to him by Ironwood. The file contained the DNA test between jaune and Saphron, blood that was easily taken when Ironwood knocked the kid unconscious.
Neo noticed jaunes reaction once more but unlike last time she moved quickly, putting herself between jaune and velvet. Velvet was a little taken aback by neo's animosity, jaune on the other hand just let out a sigh before gently patting neo's head. "I didn't mean to cause any problems" jaune smiled softly at velvet "don't worry, neo's not good at interacting with people". Placing both hands on neo's shoulders, jaune pushed her towards velvet "try to at least be friendly with the people we'll be staying with".
After a great deal of reluctance and much prodding from jaune, neo gave in and shook hands with velvet. "Are you guys done yet or do you wanna hug next" yang asked "come on we'll show you where your gonna be stayin". Yang and Qrow led them away down through the town and out into the dirt road, the trail wasn't very long and two houses came into view. Qrow turned to his guests "I'll tell you right now that there are two rules to follow so listen up".
"One, you will be polite to my wife and daughter unless you want to sleep outside and no that's not a joke". "Finally, whatever you do don't piss of my sister, trust me when I say she will have no problems with cutting you down" said Qrow. The rules were simple for the kids to remember, the only problem now was making sure neo didn't try anything but knowing her, well they'd keep an eye on her.
Qrow opened the front door and was hit by a red blur but after years as a huntsmen and even more years as a father, he knew how to adjust. Spinning on the spot allowed Qrow to bleed off the force and momentum the tiny girl in his arms generated. "Woah there ruby what's the rush" ruby pulled her head out of her father's chest "auntie Raven said she was going to bring Saphron here" she said happily. Yang felt pumped after hearing big sis Saph was coming back "man, mom should have told me" yang smashed her fists together "can't wait to show Saph how strong I've gotten.
Jaune, neo, velvet and Coco looked amongst each other, completely confused about what was happening. Qrow placed ruby on the floor before motioning to them "ruby these are the kids who are gonna be staying with us for a little bit". Once ruby noticed them she quickly hid behind Qrow's leg "ruby, this is jaune, neo, velvet and Coco, their kids sent from pharos academy, who are training to be huntsmen and huntresses like yang and Saphron".
Ruby peeked out from behind Qrow's leg to get a look at the four of them "hi" she squeaked out. Neo didn't seem to care about the situation as per norm while velvet seemed even more nervous than ruby. Coco was paying more attention to velvet and was trying to encourage her to speak up which left him as the only person to greet the young girl. "Sorry about the others, they tend to get caught up in their own problems" jaune held out his hand to the young girl "it's nice to meet you too ruby".
The small girl stared at jaunes hand like it was a poisonous snake which made jaune think of retracting it but before he did the small girl reached out and grabbed his hand. Qrow rubbed ruby's head "where's mom at" the little girl looked up to him "mom said she was baking some snacks for the guests arrival". "Alright let's go find her then" ruby nodded to Qrow before zipping off in a burst of rose petals. Yang nudged jaune with her elbow "thanks for that" jaune raised a brow "for what" yang motioned to the direction ruby left "she's pretty shy so it must have taken a lot of courage to even say hi to a stranger".
A few minutes later, ruby returned with a woman who looked exactly like her only older. "Alright kids, this is my wife Summer rose" summer smiled and waved to each of them. Introductions went as normal before they were shown to the guest room "this isn't going to work" jaune said. The remaining three also agreed with jaunes assessment of the situation. The room had two beds which meant someone was going to be sleeping in the same bed as him, Coco placed a hand on his shoulder "I'll take neo" she said. Neo's reaction was about what he expected, a whole lot of hissing and promises of death with dramatic hand motions.
"How about we try not to cause a scene that could get us kicked out of the house" Coco shrugged her shoulders at jaune "Neo will take this bed while you and velvet take the other one". Coco pulled her glasses down slightly "what about you"? "I'm taking the couch cause I'd rather avoid having to deal with any this" jaune said as he motioned to his surroundings. Neo tugged on his arm to get his attention "I'm not changing my mind" neo's eye's turned watery "I will not be swayed" neo's eye's turned serious as a very evil grin spread over her face.
Later that night at eleven, jaune became the very thing he tried to avoid, a body pillow. Jaune gritted his teeth as neo made herself more comfortable by pushing her knees into the center of his back. This was why he always refused to gamble with neo, because unfortunately she always knew how to win. Once jaune was sure that neo was asleep he made his way out of the room and to the kitchen to get a glass of water. Looking up at the window, jaune noticed the tree's moving because of the wind.
Once he put the glass of empty water into the sink he turned to see the forest again only to see a white face staring back at him. Jaune rubbed his eyes before looking once more but the white face had vanished like it was never there. After a few minutes of silence, jaune was convicted it was his imagination running wild because he was tired "time for some shut eye" he whisper to himself.

Blake rejoined Adam and the rest of the white fang group "seems that Intel you got was pretty good" Blake said. Adam couldn't hold back his smile "Finally we found him" he said happily "we'll take him down when he's alone but until then we'll try not to draw any attention to us". Blake agreed with his decision even if she didn't think any of this would help the cause they fought for. After reporting in, Blake took her leave and left for her tent to rest.
Adam remained in front of the camp, starring out into the distance "just a little bit longer" he whispered into the night.
It's Friday! Have a good weekend to everyone reading this.
