The Quickest Way to a Man’s Heart
Pyrrha: *calling home from Beacon* Mom, do you have any recipes you can send from Mistral? My teammates always do the cooking and I want to make something for them!
Mama Nikos: Of course, dear! I’ll send you some Mistrali favorites!
Later that day…
Pyrrha: *wearing a spear-patterned apron, sets down a platter of food in front of her teammates* Here you go! A Mistrali special, with a couple Nikos adjustments for fun! 😉
Nora: *whispers* I don’t want to hurt Pyrrha’s feelings, but does this even look edible to you?
Ren: *shudders* Not even a little!
Pyrrha: *watching her team not touching their food* 😥
Jaune: *notices his partner’s distress and takes a deep breath, then digs into the questionable Nikos food* 🍴😫
Jaune: *glurk!* 🤢
Jaune: *struggling to avoid throwing up or visibly wincing* T-this is d-delicious, Pyrrha! Ren, Nora, can…can I have yours if you’re not hungry?
Ren/Nora: *staring in horror* Oh gods, he actually swallowed it!!! 😱
Pyrrha: You really liked it, Jaune? 😃 🥰
Jaune: 😰*through gritted teeth, trying to hold back vomit* 🥲 Of course! *hurp!* Thanks, Pyrrha! Can we *ourp* have this again later?
Pyrrha: Of course! Since you like it so much, every Tuesday from here on will be Mistrali dinner night, special for Jaune! 😊
Jaune: *inside* 😨 I’m going to die! I’ve seen the face of death and it has a cute red ponytail and an apron!
Jaune: *out loud* That sounds awesome! I can’t wait!
———————————————————————
About a year later…
Jaune: *eating Mistrali food again because it’s Tuesday* Thanks again for cooking Pyrrha!
Pyrrha: 😊 *practically glowing* He likes my cooking!
Pyrrha: Of course! Now eat up! I made it with extra protein since we’re doing strength training this week!
Pyrrha: *practically skips back to the kitchen to clean up* 🥰
Jaune: *eating happily* Isn’t it weird how much Pyrrha’s improved her cooking since last year?
Nora: *not touching her plate* Jaune-Jaune, you know I love you, but are you on drugs right now?
Ren: If anything, Pyrrha’s cooking skills have actually gotten WORSE, if that’s even possible…
Jaune: What? Come on, there’s nothing wrong with this food! It just needs a little salt, at most! I think Pyrrha’s cooking is great!
Nora: That’s because you got together-together with Pyrrha last year and love has made you stupid! 😑
Ren: I knew love was blind, but apparently it has no sense of taste either…😒
Jaune: *taking both their plates and adding it to his own* You guys have no appreciation for fine Mistrali cuisine!
———————————————————————
Another year down the road…
Nora: We finally made it to Mistral!
Pyrrha: *excitedly pulling Jaune by the hand* I can’t wait to show you around! I missed being back home so much! Let’s go eat lunch at a local restaurant I know! Oh, I hope the menu hasn’t changed too much…!
JNPR: *all line up and place their orders*
Pyrrha: Oh, I’m so excited for my team to try the food I grew up with! I’ve done my best to make it for you every Tuesday!
Nora: *immediately chowing down* Mmmh! This is GREAT!
Ren: I must say, Mistrali food is delicious!
Pyrrha: *happily enjoying the food she missed from her childhood* Mmmm…! So much better than I can make it…! ☺️
Jaune: *carefully chewing*
Pyrrha: What do you think of it, Jaune?
Jaune: …
Jaune: …Pyrrha, I’m sorry, but I don’t think I like this…
Pyrrha: What…?
Nora: Seriously? This stuff is AWESOME!!!
Ren: I agree! This might be the best meal I’ve had in weeks.
Jaune: I’m sorry! It’s just…well…
Pyrrha: *deflating* Just what, Jaune?
Jaune: It’s just that Pyrrha makes it so much better!
_NPR: …
Ren/Nora: W H A T…?
Jaune: I mean, I don’t want to be a rude tourist, but I guess I just assumed Mistrali food was all as good as Pyrrha’s cooking, you know?
Jaune: I guess this stuff is okay, but…Pyrrha, would you mind making dinner later? I think I like it better the way you do it.
Ren: Jaune, you do realize that this restaurant is literally world-renowned for making incredible Mistrali food?
Jaune: Well…yeah, I guess, but I still think Pyrrha’s version is better!
Pyrrha: *at a loss for words* …I… 😳
Pyrrha: *sniffles* 🥹 …of course, Jaune. I’ll make as much as you want!
Nora: I’ve drank syrup straight from the bottle that was less sweet than this! Kiss him already!

'Myosotis' Ch. 7 'Pursued by memories'
---
Pitter patter
Rain?
Pitter patter
Rain.
She could feel the rain dousing her...but how could that be she was in her home warm and safe with her family and Jaune...right?
Opening her silver eyes only proved her wrong.
She was no longer in patch at her home.
She was now sitting on the grassy field of a familiar mountain cliff.
One that over looked Beacon.
Her and Jaune's favorite spot.
But...why was she here? And if so where was Jau-
A violent cough disrupted that train of thought as she looked down and her silver eyes met murky blue ones.
Darkness.
Pitter Patter
Screaming.
Pitter Patter
More Screaming.
Pitter patter
It was all that she could hear.
Stop.
Pitter patter
Just stop!
Why was she feeling so sad?
Make it stop!
Stop what?
Pitter patter
It hurts... come back please.
What hurts? Who must come back?
The damn rain just keeps going, uncaring even if she couldn't feel the rain now.
Why you...please come back to me...
Why who? Who are you talking about!?
Pitter Patter
Come back to me...I love you!
Who damn it!?
I love you Jau-
Eye's snapped open again and Ruby realized she was no longer on the cliffside but she was now on the 'J.Ironwood Bridge'. It was night and the full moon was out. Mist was beginning to rise from the ravine below covering the bridge and obstructingher view. Worst of all. It was still raining.
Why was she here?
What the hell was going on?
"Ruby come on we are at the other side of the bridge waiting on you!" That was Yang!
"Ruby!" Yes yang I hear you! Moving towards the direction of the sound she walked carefully.
"Ruby?" I'm almost their Yang hold your Beowulf!
"Ruby!?" I can hear you just fine Yang no need to shout! Ruby stopped a bit as her outstretched hand managed to grab on to something metal.
"RUBY!!" That was Blake and Weiss now, what were they doing here?
"STOP DON'T DO THIS!" Nora? Wait if she was here that means the rest of Team JNPR was here right? Which means Jaun-wait Stop what? Why was Nora crying?
"Please Ruby, he wouldn't want this!" spoke the distressed voice of Ren as he too trying to hold in tears.
Who wouldn't want this? What are you talking about Ren?
"Just come back Ruby, your gonna be okay" Spoke Pyrrha she was crying as well.
Did they have mission together?
Funny she can't seem to recall this.
Why did they sound frightened?
And what did Pyrrha mean by 'Your gonna be okay' she was fine. nothing was wrong.
The mist started to lift.
And her silver eyes widened in confusion as she looked to see the rest of WBY and NPR running to her before turning her head forward. Only to see the horizon.
Here eye's widened in horror as she looked down to the ravine below. Hearing the raging river hundreds of feet down.
She was on the edge of the bridge.
W-wh-whats going on.
Fear gripped at her body and she found she had lost all control of her own body.
Why was she here?
Pitter Patter
Why was this happening?
"Ruby"
What's going on?
Her body started moving on it's own. Over the edge.
Stop!
"Ruby"
But her body just kept going.
STOP!
"RUBY!"
Closer and closer she got. Each step she took just made her more desperate.
Pitter patter
Her arms reached out as if she was trying to grab something.
PLEASE STOP!
View of the horizon changed to the ravine below. And she realized in that moment.
She was falling.
Falling and falling.
Eye's closed she waited for the end.
This was it. She was going to die.
Where was her knight? Where was her Jaune to save her?
"RUBY WAKE UP!"
Silver eye's opened up just in time for her to smack into a white glyph.
Darkness.
*Real World*
Ruby awoke startled, to ocean eyes with blond hair staring at her.
Jaune was looking at her in concern.
"You okay Ruby? You were having a nightmare again?" Ruby was breathing heavily and looking around the room. It was her room. She was home.
She looked at Jaune and nodded. Jaune just moved into her bed and hugged her.
"It will be okay rubes, your gonna be fine" he told her running his hand through her hair as she sighed in contentment all the fear and dread escaping her.
After a few minutes Jaune let go of his hug, much to the dismay of the rose.
"Come on! Its breakfast time. I'll make you a mean pancake and eggs with some strawberries on the side!" That earned him what he called a 'pleased rose noise' from ruby as he laughed before going from the bed and opening the door and walking out.
Ruby just sighed happily as she lifted her left hand an gazed at the engagement ring on her finger.
"Gonna get out bed anytime soon sis" spoke a voice Ruby looked over to see Yang leaning against the doorway smiling at her.
"Yeah Jaunes making breakfast so I'll be down in just a few minutes" she said as she got out of bed and started stretching.
"Oh and what is Jaune cooking today?" Asked Yang curiously to which Ruby smiled
"Pancakes, Eggs and Strawberries" Yang chuckled at her sister's enthusiasm.
"Hey Yang"
"Yeah Ruby?"
"Have I ever tried killing myself?" Yang choked on the air she breathed for a second.
"No? Why would you say that Ruby?" Asked the older sister.
"Its just...I had that nightmare again the one where I am on the bridge" She asked as she was stretching to which Yang chewed on her lip.
"No Ruby...you've never tried"She said as Ruby heard from down stairs Jaune calling out "Breakfast Crater Face!"
"Coming Vomit boy!" Putting on her regular attire she walked past Yang before turning around.
"Are we all on for the family dinner trip into Vale still?" Ruby asked her older sister to which she nodded.
"Yep all of us, You, me, mom and dad" "and Jaune" Ruby said to which Yang agreed "yeah and Jaune too" She smiled at Ruby before walking past her "Come on let's see how good Loverboys pancakes really are!"
They both made their way down to the kitchen to be treated to a sight of the dinner table with 5 plates full of pancakes, bacon, eggs and strawberries.
Both Yang and Ruby were drooling at the sight.
"Well ladies? Bon appetit!" Said Jaune in a french accent as Ruby ran straight to her chair and started scarfing down her plate. Yang soon followed suite. Jaune laughed at seeing the sisters enjoy the food.
"Mhenk beb" said Ruby chewing her food too which Yang nodded her head.
"Do I hear my little Rose and Sunny Dragon in here?" Came the voice of Taiyang as he walked in to the kitchen to which both Ruby and Yang groaned.
"Hey dad! Where's mom?" Ruby questioned
"Right here!" Which startled the red reaper she felt her mother's hand on her shoulder.
" sorry sweetie couldn't resist!" Summer teased as she sat next to her daughter while Tai sat next to Yang.
"Dig in guys Jaune made breakfast today" Ruby said pointing to Jaune in the seat next to her.
Jaune just blushed and smiled "ah it was nothing happy to cook for my little roooose" he teased her and Ruby just blushed.
Summer and Tai looked at the seat next to her for a split second
"Why thanks Jaune we really appreciate you! " Tai said and Summer nodded taking a bite out of the strawberry.
"Our daughter is lucky to have you" she said and Ruby smiled but looked at Jaune now in confusion.
"Hey you aren't going to eat?" She asked " Naw I ate a few hours before you woke up from your nightmare so I'm all good" he told her with a smile, finding the answer acceptable she went back to her pancakes and strawberries.
Everyone was enjoying their breakfast.
She looked at Yang who was telling mom and dad about what good restaurants in Vale they could hit up.
Tai was recommending a backyard cookout so he could finally show off his skills in grilling, while Summer listened and laughed.
Ruby looked at Jaune, who looked back at her with a smile.
Today was going to be a great day she could just feel it!
It's going to be a great day guys! Can't you feel the joy?
