Actually, it occurs to me to note that none of Nora, Ren, or Ruby seem to actually care whether Yang and Blake are friends or something more, except to the extent that it reflects on Nora and Ren. Nora tacks almost instantly, Ren brushes her off, and Ruby nopes off. Of course, since we've been told that there's no homophobia in this setting, no one cares whether they're bi (if they even have that word - although Blake's comment when Neptune hits on Ilia suggests they might), but surely they should care if there's something between them? I guess it's just the timbre of the conversation, but apparently Nora thinks Ruby's sister is "something else" with one of all four's closest friends, and Ruby doesn't blink.
