A/N: SPOILERS FOR CHAPTER 7 OMG. THIS FUCKING EPISODE. I NEEDED TO WRITE THIS NOW. THERE IS NO STOPPING ME. THIS CHAPTER WAS JUST PERFECTION.

'This dance is alright, I give it a 7 out of 10 for now. Someone needs to spike the punch though, this would be a lot more interesting.'

The dance had arrived without a hitch in the world. Hopefully Ren and Jaune's talk bro-to-bro moment had done the blond some good.

Even now while the faithful ship of Renora tried to formal ball dance correctly. Surprisingly, Nora was very good at it...now that they had gotten past her stepping on his toes 47 times.

'Oh you should have seen earlier, she was swinging me around like I was her prize in King Kong.'

The more collected one of Team JNPR scanned the premises for his blond leader, but in his search, found a one Pyrrha just mildly shuffling through the other dancers on the floor.

'Jaune, you better get out here and fix this mess. Her being sad makes me more devious, and you thought me spiking the punch bowl was going to be bad.'

'Oops, I just let it slip that I already spiked the drinks, fuck.'

Nora only had slightly worried looks to pass me, she too was worried for her teammates well being.

'And the fact that she wants our leader like a faunus in mating season.'

It was a minute before Ren decided to answer himself.

'Wait, how do I know that?'

His own thoughts were interrupted by loud laughing from the main entrance hall.

'Oh dear lord, did he actually do what he told me he was going to do about that Pyrrha thing?'

Lo and behold, as other patrons were pushed aside, a tall, slightly more muscled Jaune...in a dress stood now before the amazon warrior. In a dress.

Now, Ren's mind was just having a wee tiny bit of trouble processing what he was seeing.

'Jaune. In a dress.'

Pink eyes roamed the boy over, still trying to scan for any imposter mistakes.

'He's in. A dress.'

Few things in this world made Lie Ren laugh, and this was close to making his crack his stone-faced demeanor. Trying so desperately to not let a tiny sound slip from his mouth.

'Keep calm, don't look any further.'

The brow of Rens' right eye twitched and tried not go out of function from trying to keep himself under control.

'Facial facade failing. Ren. exe is in danger of crashing.'

Their partners before them were now shooting questions back and forth.

"Jaune?"

Cat calls were made trying to mock his leader in a dress.

'I'd like to see you losers be able to strut in a dress. He ain't even mad bro.'

The goofy blond only shrugged to himself with a smile. "Eh, a promise is a promise."

Then the most angelic voice of laughter was gracing his hears. Pyrrha Nikos was laughing, full on laughing. 'I don't think I've ever seen her happier. Well, except that one time she stumbled in on Jaune coming from a recent shower in the bathroom. I could have sworn I saw I saw her curse under her breath at not being able to see him fully in the nude whilst she still profusely apologized.'

"Jaune! You didn't have to!" Still being overwhelmed with laughter.

"Hey, an Arc never goes back on his word."

'If that's true I don't ever want to see you make one on whenever we're gonna play 'Never Have I Ever'

Now confident in his own abilities to impress, he held his hand out to the blushing red head. "Now do you want to stand there and laugh at me, or do you want to dance?" His confidence breaking Pyrrha's train of thought.

'Well damn, Arc's got some swagger in his voice now. I think he might have made Pyrrha malfunction there for 2 seconds. I now rate this dance 10 out of 10'

"I would love to dance." Taking her leaders offered hand. When she held onto his, she let out a sound of surprise from being pulled forward into his dancing embrace.

'Theeeeere ya go, now just relax and break out the smolder.'

Jaune began to twirl his dance partner off to the side while a delighted squeal being swooped away by her idiot knight in shining gown.

'Pyrrha. exe stopped working. Please contact the help desk.'

"Ren! This. Is. HAPPENNING!"

'Wait, I know this catchy tune that just now decided to play.'

'Oh dear god, she remembers. Just play it cool Ren and maybe she won't press it further.'

"Wait, what is happening?"

He was only not entirely prepared for his energetic partner to pull him off to the dance floor with Jaune and Pyrrha.

'Aw shitberries. I'm not buzzed enough to do this yet Nora wait-'

Cue awesome dance music.

'Yeah, we're totally showing up all the other teams right now. And our leader is in a dress.'

'LIKE A BOSS!'

'This would be a bad time to say We Got The Moves Like Jaeger.'

'We're going to be ourselves and no one's gonna stop us now!'

'Goddamn Jaune, you're really working that dress right now, might make Yang jealous.'

'I'm still curious as to how we all know how to do this in sync!'

'Jaune: Me, you, we're going clubbing later at some point. We'll be an awesome dance duo and we'll call outselves: Lie and Cheat. Heh heh, get it?'

'Alright buzzed feeling starting to affect my way of thinking, gotta slow down.'

Now that the fiasco of Team JNPR kicking off the exciting dancing portion of the dance, Ren and Nora went back to their own goofy dancing.

"So I've been thinking."

"That's dangerous for you Nora."

"But but but hear me out!"

"Does this have anything to do with why we're boogying like it's some alternate universe 1970's disco dance?"

"No no shhhhhhHHHHHHHH!"

"Nora, the 'shhh' didn't have to get louder at the end."

"What if we.."

"If we?" Trying to get her to spill what she was trying to say. Contrary to belief, Ren was now having more fun than before, what if killer dance routines being optimal for team-bonding.

"Came out finally and said we're 'together-together'. I mean they're gonna find out sometime even if it's an over observing Jaune or you forgetting how to talk for 2 seconds to tell him now...Ren..Ren?!"

'Ren. exe has stopped working. Please replace entire hard drive.'

A/N: Chapter 7 is out for sponsors but the rest of you have like almost an hour left to get the goodness that I'm talking about.

I NEED TO TALK ABOUT ARKOS THINGS NOW.

I should have mentioned this one was gonna be short. Plus, I just NEEDED to do this immediately after the episode. R&R I now take prompts for Ren's mind!
