"Helloooo! You've reached Jaune Arc! If I'm not answering, it means I'm probably off somewhere fighting monsters or... doing something really awesome like saving a cat, or the president's son! You know how it is, a leader's schedule can be really hectic nowadays, ha ha! Just kidding, I'm probably in school, but I'd totally do those things if I ha-- [BEEP]"

Rapunzel, for once the peacekeeper, tries to wiggle between Jaune and the counter, pressing a hand against his chest firmly but tenderly.
Also: still trying to decide whether his behaviour is cute or just really worrisome. ]
It's [ giggle ] it's all right. We don't need to stay here.
"Very well. Before you leave, however, I am obligated to ask whether sir would like to pay for the room himself. As a citizen of our happy, functioning colony, Cerealia, you would also be authorised to use credits at this hotel."
Uh, yeah. He knows. Probably But it's all right! Really...
no subject
Hey, what's-- [ whoops, let him pull his pants back up real quick... ] --what's the alternative? Maybe I should give him some of your pictures if they're worth so much.
no subject
[ AAAH DEFINITELY CUTE DEFINITELY CUTE ]
Jaune, maybe you should just pay.
[ And you know what - while she's resigning? she's going to help hold up his jeans for him because that's the sort of thing good, nice, apologetic people do. So what if it puts her hand on his hips. That's fine! Rapunzel is all of these things!! Fine, good, nice, and apologetic, yup. ]
Heh. Do you have your card...?
no subject
[ He seems weirdly okay with the assistance as he pulls out his cracked and battered CereVice. It's a miracle it's still working after all those times he threw it. It even survived hitting Rapunzel's beautiful rock head! ]
... O-Okay, according to my banky-thingy, I should still have roughlyyy........... money. Just. Money. Yeah, I-I got it. I'll pay!
-- Wait, are you really broke?! What have you been buying?!
no subject
[ The robot whirrs a little. ]
"Pardon me, sir. Your room is waiting."
--Oh. [ Rapunzel bends backwards, hair like a waterfall as she stares at the robot from upside down.
Still holding up Jaune's pants, hell yeah! ]
Right. Go ahead. [ Pascal will take the keycard for these two idiots, thanks... ]
no subject
[ Ugh, watch Jaune go broke as well now that the transaction is complete. Oh well, at least his pants are still up!
Speaking of... ]
I-I can... I mean, thanks, Rapunzel... again I-I can handle it from here-- haha...
[ To the clerk: ] She-- this is fine, we're a team, w-we do this kinda thing. Not all the time I mean. Why am I explaining myself to a robot?
1/3
[ Also to the clerk. ]
It is. Better than fine now, even.
no subject
Fitting that he, the person who makes her smile without even trying, should be the one to receive it. ]
We were always a team, but... now we're better.
no subject
Waugh!!
[ Now, watch Miss Smooth Talk fall backwards into the pile of blonde hair at their feet. Pascal titters but races to her side anyway, inspecting her head the way Jaune had earlier. ]
no subject
[ He probably should have grabbed her instead -- oops. ]
A-Are you okay? Maybe I should carry you this time... also what did she mean by better...?
no subject
I'm... I'm wonderful, actually. Do you think you can make it up to the room?
no subject
[ He smiles weakly, not saying anything else for a moment as he catches himself staring in her eyes. ]
...
Yes. I mean, y-yeah, I can... sorry-- I just... it probably sounded like I was gonna say no. No. That's, heh... yeah. I think I'm ready to conk out. Orrr was the plan to keep me awake from dying? G-Geez, it never ends...
no subject
She's also missed electricity and indoor plumbing something fierce and wonders if she isn't becoming a little spoiled. ]
IIIIII don't need to keep you awake for that long. Just. [ Don't reach out. Don't touch him.
Too late.
Fingers to forehead in T minus 1. ]
Just long enough for me to heal you. See?
no subject
Heh... y-you're right. We... we are better now.
[ The Tank and the Healer. They can seriously survive anything together at this rate. ]
(1/2) and that would've been a great ending line but NAH
[ Why use words when you can hum your appreciation instead? Not unlike Jaune, she loses her train of thought in the ambiguous blue (still looks violet-y to her) of his eyes and says nothing for way longer than would be considered awkward. ]
no subject
Ow! Pascal! Ouch! What was that for?!
[ In response to Rapunzel's glare, the chameleon sticks out a tongue and stomps away to hide behind her recently warmed neck.
Still frowning and touching a finger tenderly to her ear lobe, she throws a glance at the elevator bank and sighs. ]
Um. Okay, well. Anyway, I've... never been to a hotel before. How does it work from here?
thanks a fucking lot asshole
[ In response to her other question, he holds up the keycard with their room number on it. ] See this? This, uh, number? We gotta find our room-- our room that's, uh... h-heh... wow... we're staying in the same room, isn't that crazy... [ why did he just realize that now??? ]
sweet fuck all mate
gonna bust a plugga here
[ that can also be interpreted as thirsts ]
[ just kidding ]
[ but it's true ]
...wait, doesn't Weiss live with Ruby...?
no subject
...It's a possibility that makes Rapunzel groans internally, hitting all of the buttons on, you know, the off-chance one of them is correct. ] She must hate me now for sure...
