Beacon night of the Dance

For the first time in his life after meeting Jango, Jaune is wearing a silk Tuxedo

Jaune felt naked out if his armor but how do you expect to dance with 2 people you love wearing high density durasteel/plastoid composite armor

So for security measures Jaune left his armor at Clone Force 99's ship, hoping it won't smell when they return it to him

Since Atlas Guards are present and general Ironwood is attending the dance Jaune can't risk exposing his troops until Ozpin smooth things out with the Atlasian blow hard

Since they area team Jaune orders his squad to do the same, awkwardly shifting in their own tuxedos Fives Jessie and Kicks feel so out of please without their armors as well

They have to keep a low profile

Clone Force 99 and Delta Squad is still in the CCT upgrading it

Tech: hand me that data slate

Fixer: here

Wrecker: what's taking so long it's been 1 week!

Crosshair: it's been 2 days Wrecker

Wrecker: same thing!

Tech: to be precise it has been 1 day and 8 hrs since we started.

Scorch: ugh screw the details I'm missing hanging out with the Malachite twins.

Boss: you do know we were there to work right scorch.

Scorch: ugh I'm so BORED!

It's like sitting on broken glass while waiting for Sev to take his damn shot!

Sev: I heard that! Before you start shit talking someone make sure your not broadcasting on our squad link.

Scorch: shit!

Hunter and Omega enters the room with food on hand

Hunter: scorch watch your mouth there's a kid here!

Omega: hey! I'm not a toddler.

Back to the Dance

Jaune: so who you guys asked out?

Fives: well we met team IDGO

Jessie: So we asked them out and surprisingly they sad yes and we just winged it.

Jaune: really now?

Kicks: hey don't judge you were terrible at hitting on girls when we were on leave.

Jaune: ugh don't remind me.

Jaune actually tried flirting with Bo-Katan when he and Jango visited Mandalore, it ended with a black eye

Fives: so who you going out with.

Jaune: I'm actually going with Velvet and Blake.

Jessie: wow you bagged TWO!?

Kicks: you sly dog!

Jaune: all right let's get this party started!

At the Dance Hall

Jaune: all right spread out and stay low...

Team Torrent: SIR!

They split up

Jaune saw Weiss by herself and that got him curious where was Neptune?

Jaune saw Blake and asked her what's up

Blake: Neptune rejected Weiss's invitation

That infuriated Jaune, Weiss the girl so hard to get any form of aknowledgement swallowed her pride to ask someone out and this play boy rejected her? That's it!
