The Warframe On Remnant

Clarified

"So are... things good between the two?" Ruby asked Aya.

The beefy Operator looked to the red hooded girl and nodded, "Yep, they seem okay for now."

"Hmm... I wonder where they are now."

Glynda pinches the bridge of her nose, releasing a frustrated sigh, "Gentlemen, if you two have a disagreement with each other, please settle it in a peaceful manner. You are in a school that's training young adults to become the protectors of the four Kingdoms, not a street fight."

"I cannot allow this behavior to slide either gentlemen." Ozpin says, carrying a rather disappointed aura with him, "Whatever you two may be in disagreement with, I hope that you two can have it settled."

"Yes sir, it won't happen again." Sybarin replies, humbly. However, looking at Professor Ozpin in the eye proved him difficult with his neck brace on along with the effects of a few painkillers making him light-headed, "We've settled our differences."

Glynda straightened her posture and took a deep breath, "Alright, the school day is just about to end. When you two recover, I want both of you to help Team RWBY  in the preparation of the Ballroom."

'Well, I'm actually uninjured. It's Sybarin that needs to recover.' Praeton thought to himself.

As the two left the room, silence befell between the two Tenno.

"So...." Praeton started, "How... how is she? Felin's daughter."

"I don't know." Sybarin replied, leaning back against the pillow on the bed. "I tried to reduce my contact with her to keep my distance, but she gets along well with the other kids in the settlement the last time I went to Cetus."

"That's good. At least she's happy."

Hearing burdening dismay in his tone, Sybarin reassures his friend again, "Look, I'll find us a way to get back. I'll make sure of it."

"Huh?" Blake looked at Ruby with a puzzled look.

"We want you to go to the dance." Ruby repeated.

"Blake, you told us that you wouldn't beat yourself up over this, but we're worried that you're starting to get to that point." Yang says, looking over to her, "You haven't eaten, slept, did anything much as you usually do."

"I know it's just, there's a lot of unanswered questions left." Blake replied, "Who was that guy at the Warehouse that night? How did he get Atlas technology of that size without being noticed?"

"Still wouldn't help if you killed yourself asking these questions." Tayla butted in.

The four turn to her as she made herself comfortable among them, "I had the same issue back in the day during my training under Sybarin, and also when our friend Felin went missing. As a result of both cases, I nearly got us killed and dragged the problem longer than it needed to be."

"So you want me to go to the dance as well?" Blake asked.

Tayla looked around the area and let the place fall silent for a short while before replying, "Yes... maybe? The point is, take a break and breathe. Praeton and Sybarin are the top dogs of us four. They'll keep sharp of their surroundings, Tayla and I will watch over the strangers around us while enjoying ourselves."

"Why do you look like you're making sure no one's listening?" Weiss asked suspiciously.

"Paranoia tends to get to us at times like this." she replied, rubbing her forehead in a tiring manner. "I'm putting more effort in meditation than anything else until it's been mitigated."
