Author's Note:
Alright this drabble is Ladybug! I was originally gonna have it be another Future White Rose family drabble but this ended up happening instead so I won't argue. I'll try and get that one family drabble out soon but I'm currently working on some Monochrome right now so you all may have to wait a bit longer for family fluffiness.
Anyway, enjoy!
{And despite everything I'm still human}
"Hey, Blake?"
The loud cracks of trees boomed around her as they uprooted and fell to the forest floor, one-by-one, crashing into the soft soil with thundering grace. Leaves rustled as the wind blew through them on their way down, crunching once they landed, dried up and dead in a single instant. Animals scurried off into the distance, away from the commotion, running into non-existence. The red-hued sky melted, the clouds fell in pieces and the sun dropped below the fading horizon, ducking for cover. In the center of it all, the lost faunus boy, scraggly and dirty from hours of wandering, noticed none of the destruction around him as he continued to walk, hoping to come across some sort of path.
"Blake?"
However, as it were, he began to fade with the rest of the setting, completely disappearing when Blake shut her book with a sigh. She set it off to the side to address her leader who was swathed in her red cloak, gazing peculiarly at the faunus sitting on the foot of her bed from her spot on the floor. Her head was ducked down, eyes cast off to the side – her stance was apologetic, aware of the fact that she was interrupting Blake's reading. Typically, Blake would be slightly agitated over being ripped from her story so suddenly, but after months of housing in the same dorm with an energetic fifteen-year-old and her equally boisterous elder sister, it was something she had to learn to come to terms with.
Something else that she'd come to terms with was how adorable her team leader could be. Blake had grown comfortable with all of the girls over the school year, but surprisingly enough the closest she grew to was their youngest member. They had spent a lot of time bonding over their love of books and soon came to find that they had other common interests as well.
"B-Blake?"
Said girl blinked and shook her head of her previous thoughts, directing her attention back to the fidgeting red girl on the floor in front of her. She had lifted her hand now, showing Blake her bashful face, colored a pretty pink. Silver eyes silently questioned her and Blake patted the bed in front of her crossed legs, motioning for Ruby to come sit with her. She obeyed and scrambled up from the floor to the bed, crawling into Blake's lap. Blake's eyes widened, not expecting that move, but not rejecting it either. She wrapped one arm around Ruby's waist and raised the other to pet Ruby's head.
"Yes, Ruby?"
Ruby perked at her name and lifted her head, teeth worrying her bottom lip as her eyes became downcast again. "Um, I was just wondering…what kind of faunus would I be?" Silver eyes looked up into bright gold, shining with hope and curiosity.
Blake frowned. "What kind of faunus you are isn't based on your personality. It's just something you're born into."
Shoulders clothed in red slumped and Blake felt the young girl deflate in her arms. "Right. Sorry. I was just curious. I didn't mean to offend you. Sorry for the dumb question." She shifted to move off Blake's lap when the cat faunus girl tightened her grip, pulling her closer. She chuckled at the squeak that escaped the huntress' mouth, resuming her petting.
"But, if anything, I'd definitely peg you for a puppy."
"A puppy?"
Blake nodded. "Yes, a puppy. They're always full of energy and curiosity, they're undeniably adorable, and they love to cuddle and play."
Ruby giggled and nuzzled her head into Blake's chest. "You know what else puppies love?"
"What's that?"
The mass of brunette hair lifted off her chest and in a rush soft lips were upon hers for a chaste kiss. Blake hardly had time to respond before the little red girl pulled away with a bright smile.
"They love giving kisses too!"
