Ruby and Weiss sat in Ruby's room on the edge of the bed just looking at the floor near the door, neither saying a word. They had both completed their goals of calming down the enraged Blake on Weiss' end and the depressed Yang on Ruby's and were now just waiting, neither sure what to do next, especially now that the startling revelation of earlier was sinking in.

"Soooo Blake is a Faunus" Ruby said slowly to try and break the silence.

"But how could she be?" Weiss wondered aloud, more to herself than Ruby. "How could we not know this entire time?"

"Well she does like tuna a lot" Ruby said with a smile "plus think about it have you ever seen her without her bow on?"

"Well what about…..no…..how about...no she had it on" Weiss started, floundering as she kept trying to think of anytime she had seen Blake without her bow on, Ruby merely waiting patiently for Weiss to come to the conclusion she knew the white-haired girl was trying to avoid.

"You know I'm right Weiss" Ruby said softly, putting her hand on her girlfriends shoulder in a reassuring manner.

Weiss sat staring at the door trying to wrap her mind around this fact "How could I never know she was a Faunus? The entire year I knew her" she was thinking about this when the door opened slowly to reveal Blake and Yang entering.

The two new girls stopped a few feet in front of Ruby and Weiss, Blake stood in front with Yang behind her holding her hand to comfort the nervous Faunus.

"So…" Blake began unsure how to broach the subject they all knew they must talk about.

"Can we see them?" Ruby asked her child-like curiosity and innocence coloring her voice making Blake and Yang both smile.

"Yes, Yes you can Ruby" Blake said as she reached her hands up to her bow and started undoing it.

"Oh cool!" Ruby exclaimed as she jumped up To get a better look when Blake had removed her bow to reveal the pair of furry black cat ears that sat upon her head. Weiss was somewhat apprehensive as she laid her eyes upon the animal appendages.

"Well I'm glad you think so Ruby" Blake said with a small laugh "to be honest I thought you might hate me because of them" the Faunus girl confessed as Ruby examined the ears

"Are you kidding Blake!" Ruby said shock filling her voice "Why would I hate them or you they're really cute!" This comment made Yang look over at her girlfriend with a smug look on her face

"I told you Ruby would think they were cute! I know my little sister very well." this made Blake give Yang a sideways glance

"Yang, darling please shut up. I love you but I don't need you telling me you were right" Yang just leaned forward and gave Blake a kiss on the cheek.

"I love you too kitten"

During this entire exchange Weiss had remained silent trying to sort her feelings about this new information. It was around this time that Blake turned to the quiet girl

"And how do you feel about this Weiss?" the raven-haired girl said softly, causing Weiss to look slowly up to meet the other girls gaze.

"How do I feel about this? I'm upset at the fact that you felt the need to hide yourself around me." she finished a certain air of Weiss Schnee brand anger coming to her voice, which brought happiness to Blake and the sisters.

"You're not nervous about the ears?" Ruby asked, Weiss just shook her head.

"Faunus do make me nervous I admit, but Blake is my closest friend so I can look past it." Weiss said with an upturn of her lips. Blake felt her eyes water and her vision blurred as she pulled Ruby and Weiss into a hug

"I'm so lucky to have you two as friends." she said with a happy cry.

"Blake we'll always be there for you" Weiss said hugging back.

"Yeah it doesn't matter if you have super cute cat ears" Ruby said, earning a small sigh from Weiss.

"Hey what about me!" Yang said puffing her cheeks out as she felt left out

"Oh get in here honey" Blake said, and needing no further cajoling Yang jumped into the group hug with her usual rib breaking, lung crushing, and breath taking bear hug. After a few moments of this and much gasping by the other 3 girls, Ruby looked around.

"We need to celebrate with Cookies!" she exclaimed running out of the room with Yang following close on her heels.

Weiss and Blake took a moment alone to share a meaningful look and a hug where Weiss took the moment to whisper in Blake's ear.

"Blake you'll always be my friend"

"Thank you Weiss" Blake said with a big smile, feeling so happy at the acceptance shown to her by her friends.

"Now let's go catch up to our girlfriends" Weiss said as she held Blake at arm's length

"Yes, let's" Blake said as the two girls headed to the kitchen with the knowledge that the friendship between them, and all four of the girls had been strengthened.
