One of Ruby's favorite hobbies was playing video games. While she wasn't the most hardcore gamer out there, she did enjoy quite a few games. Fighting games, RPG's, adventure games, the redhead enjoyed all sorts of genres.

However, one of her favorite ways of playing games was with someone else. Ruby really liked working together with someone to reach the goal or even competing in a match, as she often enjoyed the company. Unfortunately, this was something she often didn't get the chance to experience. Thanks to her shy nature, she didn't really have any friends before Signal or even in there. And even now in Beacon, not that many of her friends could provide her with the company she needed. Weiss found video games too childish and refused to play them, and while Blake wouldn't mind trying them, she often wasn't interested in games. Jaune and Nora did like video games, but were often too busy with other stuff to play with the young team leader. The other two members of JNPR were like Blake and had no interest in them either.

Luckily for Ruby, she had Yang. Back when the two were growing up together, their uncle, Qrow Branwen, had gotten them a video game console for Yang's birthday. It immediately became popular with the two girls and they often spent their time together with it. If Ruby ever needed a gaming buddy, she didn't need to look further than Yang.

However, Yang wasn't exactly the best to play games with, due to her very competitive personality. Even when the two were cooperating to beat a game, the blonde's need to prove her skills came to mess things up. This came in the form of Yang trying her best to hog all of the points, last hits on bosses and attempting to cross the finish line first, which led to Ruby suffering in the process. Whether her character got pushed of the screen, not getting the necessary power-ups or something else, the redhead often faced misfortune from Yang's way of playing.

But while it was difficult to play cooperatively with the brawler, it was even more difficult to play against her. Like it was today. Yang had suggested that she and Ruby would play a couple of rounds in a fighting game, before the younger girl had to join Weiss at the library for a study session. Unfortunately for Ruby, their little session was becoming unbearable for her.

''Oh man, I won again, Rubes!'' Yang said happily with a grin as she won another round. ''This is almost too easy for me! Maybe I should teach you a few tricks, so that you might be more of a challenge to me?''

Ruby let out a frustrated sigh. This was one of the reasons she didn't like to play games against Yang. The blonde had a bad habit of gloating and rubbing her victory in your face. This happened not only when she was playing games, but also when she was fighting as well. The sniper was sure that if Yang were to get better test scores, she would rub it in your face as well. Luckily, that would most likely never happen.

''How about we go one more round before you have to join ice queen?'' the older girl suggested. ''Just one more match and we can end it. Okay?''

Ruby perked up at Yang's suggestion, as she had been waiting for this moment. So far, she had been holding back and letting the blonde win, since she knew what would happen if she were to win. However, now she wouldn't need to do that.

The two girls selected their characters and the match started. Yang was expecting another easy victory, but was shocked when none of her attacks landed. Despite her best efforts, the blonde was unable to land a single hit and was easily defeated by the redhead.

While Yang stared at the screen with wide eyes, Ruby stood up from the floor and stretched a bit.

''Well, I guess that's done,'' the redhead said with a smirk. ''I'm off to my study session with Weiss.''

Just as Ruby turned around and was about to leave, she felt something hold her back. She looked behind her to see Yang holding onto her cloak with a small pout on her face.

''One more game,'' the blonde said.

''What?'' the redhead asked.

''One more match. I can't let this end this way.''

''Yang, come on, be reasonable,'' Ruby said with a groan. ''If I don't arrive at my study session on time, Weiss is going to have my head.''

''It's just one more match! You have time for that!'' Yang argued. ''If I let it end like this, it will leave a bad taste in my mouth!''

The young team leader was about to deny the older girl's request, but she did one fatal mistake. She looked into Yang's eyes. The blonde was using the dreaded ''puppy eyes'' technique that she had mastered a long time ago. Once Ruby saw those eyes, her fate was sealed. She had to accept whatever Yang was asking.

''Alright. One more game,'' the redhead said with a sigh.

''Yay! You're the best, Rubes!'' the brawler cheered. ''I promise that you won't get away that easily this time!''

The two girls selected their characters and began their match. However, like it ended last time, Ruby won again without much trouble. This led to Yang making the excuse of the younger girl's character being ''too powerful,'' which was the reason she lost and demanded another rematch.

Ruby could only sigh as this was going just as she had feared. If Yang won, she would gloat and rub her victory in your face. But if she lost, she would make the lamest of excuses and keep demanding rematches until she won. The scythe-wielder could only hope that this wouldn't go on for too long.

Unfortunately, Ruby's hopes were for nothing, as their game session became longer and longer. Every time the redhead won, Yang would make an excuse for her loss, like her controller wasn't working, the game was glitching and so on. Ruby could see that the only way for her to get out of this was to let the blonde win and nothing else.

As their next match started, Ruby intentionally let Yang's attacks land and missed her own on purpose. As one would guess, the match ended with the blonde winning without a problem, and with the match done, the young team leader could finally go to her study session.

''Well, that was a good match, Yang, but I have to go now,'' Ruby said as she stood up. ''I'll see you-''

''Hold on,'' Yang suddenly said, cutting off the redhead. ''You just let me win, didn't you?''

''Uhhh... No?'' Ruby answered, hoping that the blonde would believe her.

''I knew it! You threw that match on purpose!'' Yang yelled as she turned to point an accusing finger at the younger girl. ''Don't you dare look down on me like that, Ruby Rose! You may have beaten me a couple of times here, but I will defeat you! I demand another match! And no false victories this time!''

''Yang... I really need to,'' Ruby said with a groan.

''But I know I can win! I have to do it or I won't be able to live with myself! Now get back here so we can settle this!''

The young team leader let out a deep sigh as she went to start another match.

Some time later, Blake was walking down the hallways of Beacon, heading towards her team's dorm. On her way there, she came across Weiss, who seemed to be in a rather bad mood. The heiress' hands were balled up into fists, she had a frown on her face and she was stomping towards her team's dorm.

''I take it your study session with Ruby didn't go well?'' Blake asked her teammate, who didn't even turn to look at her.

''Oh, it didn't go badly at all!'' Weiss said with sarcasm in her voice. ''I mean, how could it go badly, when one of the people needed doesn't even bother showing up!?''

''Excuse me?'' the cat faunus asked, wondering what the white-haired girl meant.

''Ruby never came to the study session,'' Weiss answered. ''I waited two hours for her to show up! I'm willing to bet that she was too busy having fun with her girlfriend to bother arriving.''

''Come on, Weiss. Let's be reasonable,'' Blake said in an attempt at calming down her teammate. ''You know that Ruby looks up to you and would never want to disappoint you. I'm sure she has her reason for not showing up.''

''Well, she could have at least sent me a text! That way I wouldn't have stayed there, wasting my time!''

After their little conversation, the two girls were going to their dorm in silence. Weiss was too angry to speak and Blake was afraid of angering the heiress more, so she decided not to speak. They eventually saw the door to their dorm up ahead, but just as they were about to walk up to it, the door was thrown open by a very angry Ruby.

''For the last time, Yang, I AM NOT HAVING ANOTHER REMATCH WITH YOU!'' the redhead screamed in fury as she stepped out of the dorm while visibly struggling. Once she came out of the dorm, Weiss and Blake saw that the reason for her struggles was Yang, who was holding onto the redhead's cloak.

''Come on, Rubes! Just one more match!'' the blonde pleaded as she was dragged along the floor. ''I know that I can do it! Just let me have another chance!''

Weiss and Blake watched as Ruby walked away with Yang dragging behind her, eventually disappearing behind a corner. The monochrome duo could only stare after them with wide eyes for a moment, not really sure of what they had just seen.

''So... are you still angry at Ruby?'' Blake asked, breaking the silence.

''No. I don't think I am anymore,'' Weiss answered. ''I can see what caused her to miss our study session, so I think I feel bad for her instead.''
