The trio sat down and soon the Bullhead to Patch lifted off the ground.

Ruby: "Ehm... if you do not mind... could I... maybeseeyourweapons?" Ruby asked nervously, the last part of the sentence rushed out in one go, almost sounding like one word.

Y/n: "Sure thing, although they are not as impressive as your scythe." Y/n summoned his sword. "This is the Blade of Si-" He stopped for a moment trying to come up with a less... evil sounding name. "-lver. The Blade of Silver. It belonged to my Grandpa Silver Deamon. It does not have any other form but it is quite effective in dealing with Grimm and it helps me channel my Semblance. Narberal also has a sword that allows her to use her Semblance a bit better. She named it Raijin no Ken, which means Sword of the Thunder God. Like mine it also has no other form." Ruby listened with great interest while examining Y/ns sword. Her eyes lingered on the skull.

Ruby: "Why did you never make Mechashift Weapons?"

Y/n: "My family are strong believers that Mechashift, while having its advantages, can be too much of a risk. Just think about it, one bad hit on the weapon and the whole mechanism could stop working, either leaving you with no melee weapon or no ranged weapon, maybe even no weapon at all other than a block of metal."

Ruby: "Yeah... good point, I really did not make this any less likely while designing Cresent Rose." Ruby said scratching the back of her head. "I mean you can put your Aura into your weapon to make it more durable, but that would also mean you would use a bit of Aura in every attack."

Y/n: "Say. Have you informed your parents yet?" Ruby paled before quickly pulling out her scroll, seeing that she had 50 missed calls and more that double that amount of unread messages.

Ruby: "Yang is going to kill me..." Ruby whined making Y/n chuckle.

Y/n: "I am certain that your mother will be less angry with you once you explained the reason behind your lack of reaction to her trying to contact you." Y/n quickly spotted his mistake as Ruby looked away both in sadness and awkwardness. "Oh... I am sorry, I did not know."

Ruby: "N-no. No it's fine you could not have known. Back at home it's just me, my dad and my half-sister Yang, ocassionally our uncle would visit, but he rarely stays longer than a day." Y/n gave the girl a pat on her head, trying to cheer her up.

Y/n: "Sounds lovely, back at my home I am constantly surrounded by servants. They all kinda are like my family but at the same time they are getting payed to be around me." Y/n faked sadness. "I still feel sorry for having brought up bad memories, so how about as an apology I will show you a weapon from my familys collection?" Ruby went from sad to extremely excited.

Ruby: "Do you have a scythe?!" She asked.

Y/n: "It was the weapon of a close friend of my Grandpa
