[Yang'll give her sister a flat look for agreeing with her, but there's no actual irritation in it. In fact, it looks like she's trying hard not to smirk, letting Ruby's nudge to her shoulder jostle her a little. Bluntness seems to be the Xiao Long-Rose way after all.
With a small sigh, a warm smile spreads across her face.]
Thanks. Yeah...it is kinda important.
[Which, by the sound of her tone, is both confusing and honestly surprising to her. She's dated before but those were whirlwind flings that didn't really have feelings involved. And if she's starting to like Weiss as more than just a teammate, well...she kinda wants to be sure about it. She owes Weiss that much. And kissing her with weird crystal shenanigans going on definitely doesn't make her sure.
And that's ignoring the fact that the idea of liking a teammate and friend as more than just a friend makes her a little...anxious, to say the least.
As if to cover up for the long pause, she grins and then suddenly sits up again.]
Speaking of babies growing up, when do I finally get to meet that Kor guy you danced with? You're still friends, right?
[She hasn't been snooping! Totally changing the subject so her little sister can get some teasing of her own, but not snooping.]
[ Yang's tactic works, because the moment she mentions Kor, Ruby's face lights up. It's not that she's embarrassed, or anything - it's just the way Yang phrased it!! Why would she be asking about Kor at a time like this? Right after they were talking about mushy feelings and kissing like that??
You're a menace, Yang! ]
Um - why would you bring that up? [ Don't look at her like that!!! ] Of course we're still friends! What, can't friends, um, dance with each other and talk about weapons together and get milk mustaches together?
[ Uhuh, uhuh, sure. Yang says she just wants to know if he's gone home, but Ruby's not that gullible! Aaand her suspicions are confirmed as her sister goes on, Ruby's face going as deep red as her name. ]
What?! What - no! We're just friends! It's not like that at all!
[ Clearly, from the way she's stammering and flustering. Sure, Kor was pretty cool and he had a neat weapon, and maybe she liked it when he said nice things about her...but that's true for everyone! Who doesn't blush a little when they're being complimented? Yeesh... ]

[ DON'T LOOK AT HER!!! ]

Sure they can. [An innocent grin.] I just wanted to know if you were still friends because he could've gone home.
[It is a genuine concern! That innocent grin is looking way less innocent now though, her voice kinda sing-songy.]
Oooorrr because you could've upgraded to "more than friends"?

Okay, okay. You're definitely just friends. I got it.
[She's got it alright.]
