[This is awkward for Ren, but someone needs to actually get the ball rolling, and while Ruby was the one to suggest a meeting originally he wasn't sure if she was the one who wanted to spearhead it or not.

So he'll get it started, and if she wants to take over he'll gladly give her the reigns.

For now, though...]

Hello.

[Should he say something more than just "where my Remnant people at"?]

Uhm. For those that don't recognize me - I'm Lie Ren. I'm actually reaching out to people from my world, Remnant. I've already met up with most of my friends that are here, but Ruby suggested that we should have an actual meeting, and I'm aware that there are some from Remnant that I haven't run in to yet.

Unfortunately, I don't really have much of a message for anyone else, so I apologize if this clutters up the feed of other people.

[He even gives a little bow in his apology.]

Thank you all for your time.

Hello, Emerald. I hope you're doing well.

I wanted to reach out to you and let you know that we're attempting to get a meeting together with other people from Remnant, but I assumed you wouldn't be interested in going to something like that given... everything.

That said, I didn't want to leave you out entirely.

Do you like pancakes?

Yeah...

[Her expression falls. Jaune and Nora would have sought the rest of them out immediately if they were here but she's a little less sure about Oscar and Maria. Oscar because there's always the chance Ozpin could just steal his body back and Maria because...well, honestly, Maria's kind of a wildcard so far as Yang's concerned.

Either way, it's just not the same without the whole group.

...Maybe just...change the subject.]

Well, let me know if you need help with the food prep for this thing, okay? [She laughs.] I swear I'm way better in the kitchen than Ruby is.

[Sorry sis!]

[sleepinglotus]

[They would have.

It's been harder on Ren than he's openly admitting.

Changing the subject is just fine for him!]

Don't worry, she's only offered to bring candy.

[nailed_it]

[She snickers.]

I guess that's a relief.

[Not that candy is a particularly healthy choice but whatcha gonna do?]

You want me to bring anything a little less...sugary?

[sleepinglotus]

[Any good party has sweets.

Just not only sweets.]

Yes, please. That would be wonderful.

[nailed_it]

You got it! I'll see if I can find a good sandwich place around here. And if not I'll just make my own.

[In fact, she may just do that anyway, if only to ensure that her partner will be well-supplied with tuna fish sandwiches.]

[sleepinglotus]

[Please keep Blake placated. There's going to be a dog involved in this gathering and Ren has no idea how upset she's going to be about that.]

Either works, really, though I'm always for good home meals. Even at a...

[A blink]

... is this a party? Did I accidentally make a party?

[nailed_it]

[Her partner's tough, Yang has faith in her. But it never hurts to stack the deck in your favor.

She laughs.]

Yeah, I think you did. [Another chuckle.] It's cool. Most parties are accidental.

[Or well, maybe that was just the parties she'd tended to go to but DETAILS. Parties are kinda bound to happen with any gathering of young adults, especially a group like theirs.]

I'll drop by early and give you a hand with set-up if you want.

[She's not gonna impose if Ren's got a handle on it, but she does miss flexing her party planning muscles.]

[sleepinglotus]

[Hooboy. That's gonna be something new to navigate.]

I'd like that.

[They haven't gotten to hang out recently. He misses her company.]

[nailed_it]

[She can't help but grin widely at that, pumping a fist.]

You got it! Master party planner Yang Xiao Long is at your service.

[So maybe that's a bit of an exaggeration but she and Weiss did do a fair job with the Vytal Dance and she's definitely got experience with parties under her belt!]

[sleepinglotus]

[The excitement is pretty infectious, even over the network, and he can't help the smile that shows up.

They did do a very good job with the dance. Shame that CVFY got stuck out on their mission for so long and missed it, but Yang and Weiss made it memorable.]

Thanks. I'll see you soon then?
