Kane sat leaning against the edge of the bed with a frown on his face as Irilieth sat on the bed above him, playing with his black hair. While he frowned grumpily, she smiled contently while she messed around with his hair. Connor and Ruby sat across from them, leaning on the other bed in the room with with awkward smiles on their faces. Jim had been taken by Yang to fix his mechanical arm, and that was expected to take a while, so Connor and Ruby had to sit out the awkwardness alone.
In an attempt to break the silence, Connor asked Irileth, "So...you're an old friend of Kane's huh? I didn't think he had any friends before me."
Irileth's hands came to a standstill, still holding onto Kane's hair, as she looked at Connor confusedly and replied, "Why not?" Then grinned at Kane and returned to messing with his hair. "He's grown up to be so handsome!"
Hearing that, Kane sharply leaned to head back to look up at Irileth and snapped, "No! I'm not handsome! I'm scary, terrifyingly! I strike fear into the hearts of my-"
Irileth then interrupted his monologue by tapping him on the head and muttering, "Idiot." Then ,continuing to mess with his hair, said, "I knew you'd grow up like that, trying to impress your brother when you were young..."
On the opposite side of the room, Ruby and Connor still smiled awkwardly, looking for a way out of the situation. They knew that Irileth wouldn't mind whether they were here or not, she only really wanted to talk to Kane. Looking away from Kane's head for a minute, Irileth noticed Connor and Ruby holding hands and questioned, "So are you two together then?"
Surprised by the sudden question, Ruby and Connor both blushed looked down at the floor, then Ruby answered, "Well...yeah...we are...together..."
"Kinda yeah..." Connor followed up shyly, wondering if he should tell Irileth about he and Ruby's engagement.
That thought was blown out of his mind however, when Irileth snapped down at Kane, "Why don't you have a cute girlfriend like that huh, Mr. Scary Pants?!"
Kane bent his head back to look at Irileth again and yelled back, "What makes you think I want a girlfriend!? Also cut it out with the nicknames, I don't like it!"
"Idiot..."
Elsewhere, in the workshop, Yang was busy fixing Jim's arm. Jim sat there with a putrid look on his face, still fuming about his run in with Stephane, while Yang fixed a screw into place. So far she'd managed to reattach the upper portion of the arm, up to just before the elbow, but there were pieces of the interior scattered across the floor and table. At that moment she had decided to concentrate on his shoulder joint into place to ensure the arm didn't fall off.
"So I take it you know that Stephane guy?" Yang asked, before pushing a screw tightly into place and locking it in. She wiped her forehead with a dirty cloth, starting to get very hot.
"I went to school with him before coming here." Jim reluctantly admitted, putting his elbow on the table and resting his chin on his hand. "He's a discriminative little asshole though."
"Yeah, I gathered that too." Yang replied, pushing a steel plate into place and starting work on another screw. "He give you a lot of trouble?"
"Nothing I couldn't handle." Jim stubbornly answered.
"That didn't seem like the case when you tried to punch him." Yang teased, knowing full well it would probably warrant a reaction from Jim, but she was surprised when he didn't react at all. "Hey, are you ok?" She checked. "I was only joking around."
"Sorry I ruined your night." Jim apologised, taking Yang off guard. Looking down, she saw that her yellow dress was splattered oil, dirt, and other types of grime.
"No problem. I...like taking care of you." Yang responded sincerely, letting out a small but sweet smile. Jim looked over his shoulder and smiled back, then seemed a little happier. "So why does he hate the Faunas so much?"
Jim sighed and turned his head back around so that Yang could get back to work on his arm while she worked, then answered, "Well first of all, there was an attack in Mythril, where we lived a long time ago. Stephane's family was a military one and so took part in the fighting. One day they asked the Faunus military to assist, but they ran away instead. Ever since then he called them cowards, but that's not the end of it. A couple of years after that, there was a Faunus uprising in our hometown and in the fighting, a lot of his family died."
"Oh...that's...terrible." Yang replied, secretly finding it hard to feel sorry for someone who had been so discriminative towards Jim. "But still...you didn't have anything to do with it did you? So...why does he hate you."
"He's blinded by the deaths of his family members." Jim replied. "He can't see the difference between me and the killers."
After that there was a short silence, as Yang pondered what had been said while she worked on the arm. After only a short time of thinking, she stopped working for a moment and addressed Jim again. "Jim..." She quietly told him. "If he bothers you again...tell me."
"Why?" Jim responded curiously, turning around and looking at Yang again as he spoke. "I told you I can deal with it, why do care so much what-" Jim's words then froze in his mouth. When he turned his head, Yang's was extremely close to his and she had a look in her eyes he had never seen before, a look of sincerity. "Uh...Yang?" Jim nervously stuttered as Yang continued to stare at him whilst being close to his face. "What...?" His words then then left him again as Yang began to lean forward and move her face towards his. Before he knew what was happening Yang's face was coming closer to his and he had no idea what to do. Despite being a constant flirt, he had never actually gotten to this point before and was terrified.
Then the door suddenly slid open, and in walked Connor, Ruby, Kane and Irileth. Kane's hair was an absolute mess, more so than usual, after having been toyed with by Irileth, who was humming happily in the back. Connor and Ruby were the first to enter and Connor the scene before them, and their jaws dropped open in a classical display of shock. Noticing their presence, Yang stopped herself from blushing by some miracle and immediately punched Connor straight in the face, sending him flying out of the doorway.
"I just wanted to see if Jim was alright..." Connor muttered, as her lay on the floor rubbing his nose and wondering what the two of them had been up to before he had entered.
