[Ruby gets a delivery that includes a box of chocolate covered strawberries, a bouquet of roses, a small jar of what is clearly gun polish, and a card that reads:
Miss Rose,
Making a rose-shaped chocolate is a lot more difficult than I thought, but giving up and dipping strawberries in the remains of my twelfth attempt is super easy!
...I know roses are your thing, too, but I can't make any other flowers, so I hope they'll make do?
Anyway, I needed to get something for my fellow sister-in-style. Guns and roses forever!
~ E. Valentine ♥
PS The jar is for Crescent Rose. Please don't eat it.]

[Ruby will find an extra large box of chocolate chip cookies with her name on it. There's also a cute little planter with a single red, white, and black rose growing in it. Yang's Dunamis still leaves a lot to be desired but there's nothing she won't do for Ruby and that includes growing a rose with emotion magic so it'll have all her favorite colors on it.
There is also a punny valentine to go with it signed with lots of love from Yang.]

[ This is going to be the last thread I start until June, probably... Here we go.
Pyrrha knocks on the bedroom door of every single member of Team RWBY, or she happens upon Ruby in the kitchen/great room/basement/treehouse. Either way, no matter what happens, she will be perpetually accompanied by a certain someone. An obedient sort, the second best loved blond boy in her life, he has a one bark maximum for curious things - such as Ruby herself. (Woof!) ]
Ruby?
[ Why is she doing this if she can just telepath the other girl... eh, whatever. ]

[ The scene will be familiar to Ruby. It starts with the faint sound of a familiar voice coming from outside, undoubtedly Pyrrha's. It's late at night, way past midnight, and she can probably already guess that Jaune has fallen back into his old habits.
Indeed, if she chooses to go outside, Jaune will be there training on his own, while listening to the same old recording of Pyrrha on his Scroll. One key difference this time is that his swings are stronger and faster, likely due to his time spent training with Lightning and Ozpin... not to mention the person encouraging him in the video. No longer just his partner, but also his wife, short as their time was.
At some point, Jaune forgets to pace himself, ignores the video loop and starts slashing his sword relentlessly at nothing in particular. Less focus and little more rage this time. Is he imagining a certain someone in front of him?
In any case, this goes on for a while, until Ruby decides to make her presence known. If she doesn't again, then he will notice her of his own accord this time. ]

[ It's Milkshake Day, the day you give a milkshake to a female friend you care about!
Ruby will find hers in her weapon workshop, with her name and a note attached to it. It's cookies and cream! ]
Dear Ruby,
A circle is round,
it has no ends,
that is how long
I want to be your friend.
Enjoy!

[ Merry Christmas, Ruby!
On the 25th, if Ruby checks the Christmas tree in the Beacon house, she'll find a box with her name on it and a snowflake at the bottom of the card! Inside is a BEAUTIFUL SWEATER so that she can be warm and cozy for the Christmas season. ]

[ Months later, Minato is still deeply concerned that Ruby hasn't eaten takoyaki, so that's exactly what she's getting this holiday season. That's not all, though! She'll find a octopus plush toy in her box as well along with a note.
Happy holidays. I suggest eating takoyaki asap. The toy is inedible, though. M. ]

[A day late for Christmas, but Sonia nevertheless prepared a gift for her dear friend. Ruby loves chocolate chips cookies, right? In which case she would like the tray of chocolate chip gingerbread man she baked for her. Even though all of them looks like some misshapen-shaped monstrosities that are all begging for death.
Sonia thinks they look fine, but so long as they taste good then everything's fine! She's visiting the Beacon house to personally hand the gift over to her, so when she reaches the front door she give it one solid knock. Or she'll send her a telepathic message if the door's unanswered.]
Ruby. It's Sonia, and I have something for you. I'm outside the house.

[ Because Oscar's never wrapped many presents before, and because Ruby's is the one he wrapped first, and because he tried hard to fix it when he started messing up, hers came out looking a good deal messier than his gifts to the others. But it'd kind of be a waste of paper to redo it from scratch, and although he's a little embarrassed, at least what's inside is nice: a pair of red earmuffs with a rose design to help her stay warm this winter. ]
Thank you for letting me be part of your team. - Oscar
[ Beneath that, he's written down an address for a place in Theasthai. ]
P.S. Before she left, Penny and I helped paint a mural here. You were supposed to draw what inspires you, and she drew pictures of her friends up on the wall. I wanted to tell you in case you want to go see it sometime.

[Yang's gift for Ruby is a little unusual in that it's actually two gifts, since she wasn't present for her birthday in Verens. T.T
The first gift is a space-saving wall mountable weapons holder to help contain Ruby's existing and no doubt still growing collection of weapons she has here in Verens. The other gift is an over-sized book Yang found at one of the local bookstores filled with pictures and descriptions of all kinds of Verens weaponry through the known ages. So many weapons to swoon over!]

[ Ruby isn't at the Beacon house at the moment, and so is Yang. Weiss is actually alone in their room, and with nothing important to do, she decides to clean up the room. Yang cleans up fine, but Ruby can be very messy. Not to mention, she eats in the room all the time, and it's not something Weiss appreciates. With no one to stop her, she decides to put a little more organisation to their room.
As she cleans, she remembers one of the musicals she had watched recently, so she sings one of the songs and even plays the scene in her head. It was a really fun scene, so she can remember the dance moves fairly well. ]
Look at my butt, look at my thighs. I'm catnip to the guys!
[ The moment she sings, a mental transmission is created between her and Ruby without either of them knowing. Well, Ruby will know when she suddenly hears Weiss' voice in her head, anyway. An image of Weiss dancing with a bunch of people may also be seen, if Ruby concentrates on what she's hearing enough, anyway. ]
