[ No context necessary - they hang out 90% of the time. ]
I'm always in charge, I'm never in debt. I'm known as the first amongst all my kind. I'm found within cars, but never in buses. I'm not used in Shion, I'm used in Mistral. Go!
[ It's a brain teaser! Apparently they do these things now. ]
[ Obviously, Pyrrha will give him a high five! She does it without even looking, because partners are just that physically synchronized. Also, he said “I love you” in a very casual way, and that makes her quite happy.
Okay. Riddle. Something they have... Mistral, a car, Yang, Blake—
A man is trapped in a room. The room has only two possible exits: two doors. Through the first door there is a room constructed from magnifying glass. The blazing hot sun instantly fries anything or anyone that enters. Through the second door there is a fire-breathing dragon. How does the man escape?
[ That certainly is an unexpected turn of events! Let’s be real, though—she’s delighted. Pyrrha does her best to look coy. (It’s pretty much a spectacular failure.) ]
I find your terms acceptable.
[ date with jaune date with jaune date with jaune !!!! ]
[ It's not his actual answer, but now he's testing Pyrrha's integrity! Does she give him the point and prize? Or is he wrong and nobody wins? It's now a social experiment! ]
[ Goodbye, date. — Well, how necessary is one? Their relationship is already quite solid, she tells herself, as a way of talking herself out of disappointment. ]
[ They were - they are - but she still wants to be taken out on a proper date. (Sorry, Jaune. You went and landed yourself a high maintenance girlfriend.)
At any rate, she is now going to punish him for his lie...
[ The tackle is successful, as one would expect. Jaune falls to the ground in a way that would definitely hurt if he hadn't become so conditioned over getting his ass kicked. Really, this is nothing compared to getting a Nuckelavee hoof to the face!
So, when he hits the ground, he simply laughs it off. How can he not laugh, when she's being so endearing? ]
[ It's a familiar position for them: Jaune with his back on the floor, Pyrrha seated comfortably on his legs, or further up. And, as usual, he takes her physical retribution with good humour. He knows as well as she does that hurting him isn't the intention. This is just how Beacon students flirt, maybe. ]
[ Smiling, he looks up, not at all minding this position. ]
I'd love to, Pyrrha.
[ In hindsight, he probably shouldn't have teased her with his faux answer, but a date was always going to be on the cards. There's a girly side of him that's kind of excited about it, too. ]
... Besides, I'm not in much of a position to say no, am I?
[ He's kidding, of course. This is in no way an obligation for him - it's a prize he wanted to win! ]

I'm always in charge, I'm never in debt.
I'm known as the first amongst all my kind.
I'm found within cars, but never in buses.
I'm not used in Shion, I'm used in Mistral.
Go!
[ It's a brain teaser! Apparently they do these things now. ]

Within cars... [ Said largely to herself. Pyrrha's taking this puzzle a bit too literally. ]
An electric-powered engine?
[ btw, she's sitting on his bed, flossing her teeth. They're in That Stage now. ]

Close! ... N-No, sorry, I... I dunno why I said that, that's not even remotely close. Let's try that again...
[ He clears his throat. ]
Yang has it, but Ruby does not. Blake has it, but Weiss does not!

Oh! Their ... non-virginities!

Pyrrha!!!!
[ Where does one even BEGIN? ]
... Is that true?
[ ...Probably not there. ]
no subject
I don’t honestly know.
[ Well, in Yang’s case, she absolutely does know. ]
It’s your riddle, Jaune.
no subject
[ And yet he's pretty sure he knows Yang's as well. ]
Do you wanna have any more guesses? I'll give you another clue: you and I have it.
...
N-Not the non-virginity thing!! But it's true. [ Highfive?? ]
no subject
Okay. Riddle. Something they have... Mistral, a car, Yang, Blake—
Oh!! ]
The letter A!

[ HIS MIND IS STILL IN THE GUTTER ]
Wanna try one on me, or should I give you another one?
no subject
[ She thinks for a moment. ]
A man is trapped in a room. The room has only two possible exits: two doors. Through the first door there is a room constructed from magnifying glass. The blazing hot sun instantly fries anything or anyone that enters. Through the second door there is a fire-breathing dragon. How does the man escape?
[ It’s thematically relevant! :D ]
no subject
I guess there's no choice but to fight the dragon.
[ ...the question wasn't what Jaune or anyone else from Remnant would do, though. He's playing this game wrong. ]
no subject
[ She might have made it a little too on the nose. Oh, well! ]
Would you like to try again?
[ Pyrrha finishes flossing and focuses on undoing her ponytail. Did I mention she's in very stupid pajamas? ]
no subject
[ And those PJs are hot, ok. ]
If you can't fight the dragon, then you fight the... sssun?
[ He's getting there!! ]
Wait, do I have to leave the room?
[ He's still imagining himself as the main character in this riddle... ]
no subject
[ FIGHTING THE SUN IS IMPOSSIBLE
you stupid, beautiful boy :') ]
Try it another way. No fighting.
no subject
[ You can see his weird strategic mind already turning. He knows he's missing a detail, one that's likely right under his nose.
... ]
--oh, got it!! I got it!
[ And now to make it more interesting... ]
If I'm right, though... you have to go on a date with me!
no subject
I find your terms acceptable.
[ date with jaune date with jaune date with jaune !!!! ]
no subject
You dig a hole.
[ It's not his actual answer, but now he's testing Pyrrha's integrity! Does she give him the point and prize? Or is he wrong and nobody wins? It's now a social experiment! ]

[ Dammit. :( ]
No, that’s not the answer, either.
[ Goodbye, date. — Well, how necessary is one? Their relationship is already quite solid, she tells herself, as a way of talking herself out of disappointment. ]
no subject
I worked it out... you wait for night time!
[ He wants this date, too! (aren't they already dating?) ]
no subject
At any rate, she is now going to punish him for his lie...
By tackling him to the floor.
In her pajamas. ]
no subject
So, when he hits the ground, he simply laughs it off. How can he not laugh, when she's being so endearing? ]
P-Pyrrha, I'm sorry! I was just messing around!

Jaune-- [ A bit shy, suddenly.
Weird, that. ]
... Will you go on a date with me?
no subject
I'd love to, Pyrrha.

You can wear a dress, if you prefer.
no subject
Y'know, if you keep hinting that, I'll think you really wanna do roleplay.
