Teams RWBY and GHZT were seen in the ballroom hanging around, team RWBY got the responsibility to prepare the dance, they had some spare time since professor Port had gone out on a mission. They decided to use their spare time and do the preparations for the big dance tomorrow. Yang and Weiss were working on the preparations with Titus helping them, blake was nowhere to be found, and Ruby is seen resting her head on her hand next to Ajax and Hana at a table and staring into the distance before she is startled by someone slamming their palms on the table.
"I need you to pick a tablecloth," Weiss asked as she slides two squares over to Ruby, both seeming to be similar shades of white.
"Aren't they both the same?" Ruby responded in confusion.
"This one, Weiss. More classy," Ajax chimed in.
"Thank you, Jax." Weiss smiled satisfied, as she left, Ajax turned over to Ruby.
"They are the same," Ajax said whispering to Ruby, earning a depressed chuckle.
"Why does she get to call you 'Jax'"? Zack said, perking up one eyebrow.
"I don't mind if she calls me that," I said.
"So can I call you that?" Zack said excitedly, earning a cold 'no' from Ajax. "So then how come I, your teammate, can't call you by your name?"
"I don't know, it's weird," Ajax said, clearly knowing the answer. After giving it some thought, Zack perked up with an idea.
"What if...? Hear me out," Zack said leaning over at Ajax. "'G'?"
"Hm, That's not bad... Simple, yet efficient. Not my name... I like it," Ajax said holding his chin with his hand in thought.
"Congrats Zack, you used your brain for once," Hana said sarcastically.
"I know, right!" Zack said with genuine excitement, earning a chuckle from Ajax and Hana.
A silence fell but was shortly broken by the sound of Yang slamming an enormous speaker onto the ground next to them, making their table bounce with ease.
"So, have you guys picked out an outfit for the dance?" Yang asked the students at the table.
"Of course, I have," Hana responded.
"Sure have!" Zack said with pride.
"Now that you mention it, I have no suits or stuff like that..." Ajax said in thought. Hana and Zack look at him.
"And how do you plan on going to the dance?" Titus came over and pointed at Ajax.
"That is a good question," Ajax responded.
"What's the point? Who cares about the dance if Blake isn't going?" Ruby said depressed leaning on the table.
"Oh, don't worry; she's going." Yang looks over at Weiss doing some other stuff. "Weiss! I thought we agreed: No doilies!"
"If I don't get doilies, you don't get fog machines!" Weiss says as she walks up to Yang, pointing at her face.
The conversation is interrupted by the sound of the ballroom doors opening. They all turn around and see Neptune and Sun walking over to the others.
"Your dance is gonna have fog machines?" Neptune says, walking next to Sun.
"We were thinking about it..." Weiss said stepping up to him, becoming sweet. Ajax's stomach then twists and turns in discomfort after seeing her act like this around him.
"That's pretty cool," Neptune adds.
"Wow there, It's not good to chase dreams you can't achieve!" Zack stood up quickly and pushed Weiss and Neptune away from each other. Followed by looking over at Ajax and winking. Ajax softly smiles in return.
