I can't find the prompt thing for Nevermore, but can we has drabble from this line "Have you ever thought about.." (￣∇￣*)ゞ
something short, from STRK’s academy years
“Truth or dare?” Raven lifted an eyebrow in mild scorn. “What are we, five?”
“What, not up for a little teambuilding exercise?” Qrow asked, nudging his sister before taking a seat on the floor beside Tai.
“No.”
Tai grinned at her, his smile too happy and too bright. “Someone woke up on the wrong side of the bed this morning.”
“No, this is just dumb. We’ve been a team for six months.”
“Geez, Raven, it’s just a homework assignment. And this is the easy way out.”
She shut her mouth tight, refusing to make eye contact with anyone, and taking care to especially avoid eye contact with Summer.
“…alright,” the redhead said, a quiver of uncertainty in her voice. Raven sat on the bed, and the other three sat cross-legged around a bottle on the floor.
“I’ll spin,” Tai said, already reaching to flick the bottle. It was the fairest way they’d devised to start who would get the first question in a game none of them particularly wanted to play.
The bottle came to rest at Qrow, and he turned around to waggle his eyebrows at his sister.
“Oh, come on, you can’t ask me anything, we grew up together.”
“I feel like we’ve kinda grown apart since coming to school, sis. So, my question is, have you ever thought about dating any of your teammates?”
He smirked, and Raven could’ve killed him right then. She knew he was asking on behalf of Tai, too, was the awful thing, but Raven’s interest was more focused on Summer. The competitive, cruel part of her wouldn’t allow her to break her stare with Qrow, as much as she wanted to look Summer’s direction, and her red eyes flared with brief anger.
“Tai shouldn’t have you ask questions he doesn’t wanna know the answer to,” she replied, taking some satisfaction from the eyebrow lift she got out of her brother. Raven leaned back in the bed, letting her eyes drift over to Summer as the game moved on.
Summer, she knew at least, was smart enough and not self-absorbed enough to notice that Raven hadn’t really answered the question.
