What if... Jaune took his grandpa's gun instead?
Ruby: *stars in her eyes, almost salivating* T-that's a Lahti L-39! W-where did— *gulp* Where the heck did you find THAT?
Jaune: *shrug* My grandpa gave it to me after i told him i got accepted into Beacon. Said it wouldn't matter if i got skills or not if i can just destroy whatever is in front of me in a couple rounds—
Ruby: CAN I HOLD IT!? PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE—
Jaune: *eye her up* You... You sure? That gun is a 109 pounds of steel; i had to train for months just to—
Ruby: GIMME!
Jaune: ... Al— *get it snatched from his back by a cloud of rose petals* -RIGHT!?
Ruby: *Now officially drooling* Oooh Yeaaaah~, you're a real BEAST aren't you? *Tests the mechanism* Smooth as butter, not a spec of rust— *SNIIIIIIIFFFFF* no smell of dust, it still uses the original ammo type!
Jaune: *blushing* I-i feel like i shouldn't be watching—
Ruby: *sigh in bliss* Aaaah~ *Turn her sight back to Jaune* It's decided; you'll be my partner!
Jaune: You really like guns, huh?
Ruby: *nods very quickly* I LOVE guns! Or any kind of weapon really— *wince* I probably overdid—
Jaune: *scratches his head* Well, my grandpa gave me a few others—
Ruby: *Heavy breathing* FOR REAL!? CAN I—
Jaune: —but they haven't arrived yet. *Smiles apologetically* Sorry.
Ruby: Aw...
_ during initiation _
Ruby: *hits the ground in despair* NOOOOO!!! WHY GODS!? WHYYYYYY!!!
Weiss: ... *Frown* I mean, i'm not thrilled to be your partner either, but i feel like this is kind of an over-reaction!

*BANG* *K-CHUNK* *BANG* *K-CHUNK* *BANG*
Pyrrha: *slightly nervous* J-Jaune?
Jaune: *smiles* What is it Pyr?
Pyrrha: *point at the dissolving deathstalker* I-i think it's dead now.
Jaune: ... *Tilt his head innocently* You sure?
Pyrrha: *wince at what's left of what should have been the deathstalker's face* P-pretty sure, yes! (GOD I HOPE THEY'RE NOT GOING TO ALLOW THAT THING DURING TRAINING!!!)
