Chapter 8 – Ruby Rose Snorts Coke
Content Warning: Ruby Rose snorts some coke in this one. It is shocking and may be too graphic for some of the more squeamish members of the Rat's Nest…
Ruby and Yang were chilling at home on a Friday night. Taiyang, their super cool father, was busy at Patch grading some last-minute term papers, and Qrow, their super uncool Uncle, was out on a mission (a.k.a. getting drunk).
That left their cabin in Patch empty save for the two girls themselves and their pooch, Zwei. On nights like these, the sisters tended to blow off some steam through a variety of means. Ruby liked baking snacks and chowing down, whereas Yang was typically more of a videogame gal herself.
Tonight was a mutually agreed upon activity: movie night. Yang had loaded up an old VHS tape from ten or twenty years back with some really low budget slasher flick playing in grainy black-and-white on their TV. Yang was barely watching the thing, more focused on the pizza that she and Ruby had split between the two of them.
In contrast, Ruby was quaking in her corset and clutching her hood close to her. These kinds of scary movies had always given her the heebie-jeebies. It was completely bizarre – she could and frequently did face down a horde of Beowolves with no backup except her baby, Crescent Rose, but turn on a movie about a spooky masked man with a machete, and her knees became jelly.
Ruby noticed out of the corner of her eyes that Yang was staring at her, prompting the younger girl to break out of her terrified stupor and pause the movie using the remote.
"What?"
"Oh, nothing. Just thinking of how we can make this party really fun…"
'Really fun' normally sounded like something right up Ruby's alley, but when that came from Yang, she wasn't so sure. "That doesn't sound like nothing, sis. What are you getting at?"
The blonde huntress winked. "How about I show you instead of telling you~"
Yang reached under the couch and pulled out a small bag. Ruby peered over to see what it was her sister was reaching for.
"What's in the bag?"
Yang's tongue stuck out the side of her mouth. "Just a little something I bought when I was in town. From what I've heard, this is the strong stuff – we're gonna have loads of fun, sis."
Opening the bag, Yang pulled out a pair of soda pop cans.
"Drink up, sis. This stuff is so much better than Pepsi."
Ruby eagerly snatched up her own can of cola and cracked it open, bringing it to her lips. Yang knew her so well – anything with sugar was bound to make their movie night that much more enjoyable.
"Hey, Rubes – what happened when the hunter drank too much lemon lime soda and had trouble aiming her sniper scythe at the Grimm from the sugar rush?"
Ruby couldn't speak as she sipped her drink, so she just raised her eyebrows instead.
"She Sierra Missed!"
Cola spewed out of Ruby Rose's mouth and nose as she snorted coke. "Ugh, Yang, that pun was so baaaaad! You made me snort coke everywhere! I just snorted so much coke!"
"Oops, sorry 'bout that," Yang said, handing Ruby a paper towel. "Didn't mean to make you lose all your soda." Her shoulders slumped. "Guess the party's ruined."
"S'cool," said Ruby, reaching under her side of the couch for another bag, this one brown and made of paper. "I bought some blow a few days back. We can just do that instead."
