《The Mysterious Hunter (Bleach x RWBY)》VIII. Dancey Pants

Ichigo (thoughts): 'Hopefully that helped her. Hopefully.' he thinks as he looks at Weiss talking to Neptune.
Ichigo, hoping he had helped a friend, decides to just go back to the punch bowl and stand there until the event was over. He really had nothing else to do. As he approaches the punch bowl, he notices Ozpin standing there. He just looks at Ozpin and decides to walk away. Why? Well, Ichigo really didn't want Ozpin asking questions about his 'life'.
He then starts thinking about Urahara, or rather, Mr. Hat-n-Clogs. He sees similarities between the two. Even though Urahara acts like a complete dumbass, he's actually incredibly smart and decisive. Not that Ichigo would ever admit that. He sees some of Urahara in the man. Even though he barely knows him, he can already tell that he's incredibly smart. Or rather, clever.
He also didn't want to run into Glynda again. For some reason, he feels like she's watching him at all times. That kinda freaked him out, especially given the anger she had during their first meeting. So, he opted to just avoid her for the time being, deciding to hang out on the second floor. Ichigo ascends the stairs to the upper floor and looks around. He notices Ruby and Yang on the right of him, looking downward. Surprised to find them, he decides to visit.
Ichigo: "Ruby! Yang!" he calls out to them.
Ruby/Yang: "Ichigo!" they both answer at the same time, also surprised to see him up there.
Ichigo: "So... What are you guys doing?"
Yang: "Not much. We were talking about the dance, but then lady-killer over there started dancing in a woman's dress."
She smiles and points to Jaune, who's... wow, he's really dancing in a dress. Guess he's into that sort of thing.
Ichigo: "Alright. You guys know why he did that?"
Ruby: "Nope! But I'm sure he had his reasons. I think."
Yang: "Maybe... Or maybe he's just into wearing dresses? Like a crossdresser?" she suggests.
Ichigo: "That is a crossdresser, not 'like' a cross-dresser." he states matter of factly. "Even if he is, I won't judge."
He didn't really have a problem with it. He made friends with more ridiculous people, like Yumichika, that weirdo. Sure, the first time they met, Jaune was a nervous wreck for some reason. Ichigo wasn't sure why, but he just chalked it up to being nervous meeting new people. After they talked more and got to know each other better, they became friends. Now, Jaune isn't even nervous around him. He eventually figured that he was nervous because of the video of initiation. Ichigo guessed that when he saw Jaune fight. He – how to put it lightly... well, really freaking sucked. Hell, Ichigo could probably take Team RWBY and JNPR, but Ichigo wouldn't get too confident. It reminded him of Aizen, always confident, until he killed him.

But what made Ichigo really wary is Aura, Semblances, and Dust. He had to be wary of those things. For instance, what would happen if Ichigo cut one of the students with his Zanpakuto? Could Aura protect them? Zanpakuto are the manifestation of the Soul Reaper's soul, so could it cut through Aura like butter and become useless for defense since it too is the manifestation of the soul?
Semblance. A Semblance is unique to every person. Someone could have the most useless Semblance or have the most ridiculously overpowered Semblance (looking at you Y/N Rose and Ryu Shin). That was also something to be wary of.
And Dust. A "naturally occurring energy propellant". That shit can power ships, create thunder, add the elements to your weapons, or add it to your body or clothes! It's really fucking versatile! And they don't even know where it came from! It's starting to sound more and more like Kido.
Ichigo (thoughts): 'Semblances are like Shikai: unique to every person with their own powers. Aura... Unless you count how you can use spirit energy to defend yourself and sharpen your blade, we don't have that. But we are able to stand in mid-air. Pretty good trade.'
Ichigo: "Anyways, you guys enjoying the dance?" he asks the girls.
Ruby: "I guess? I mean, I like hanging out with you guys, but I freaking hate this dress!" she exclaims as she tries to stand straight, but keeps wobbling.
Yang: "What do you mean? You look adorable! You keep trying to walk straight, but you fail and stumble, making it more cute!" she says as she headlocks her sister and rubs her hair.
Ruby: "Yang!" she yells, trying to pry off her sister's arm.
Ichigo smiles at this. It's nice to see them having fun.
Yang: "I'm enjoying my time. I wouldn't have enjoyed it if Blake hadn't come. She's been pushing herself and I wouldn't have been able to have fun." she says as she releases Ruby. "I had to tell her my story and show her that she had to slow down and relax."
Ichigo: "Your story?" he asks.
Yang: "Yeah. I just told her a little about my childhood and a life-changing event."
Ichigo: "Life-changing event?" he questions.
Yang: "Yeah. Some stuff happened when I was younger and it changed me." she explains.
Ichigo, already guessing what it was, decides to drop the subject.
Ichigo: "I see. Well, at least she isn't exhausting herself anymore."

Yang: "Yeah. She just needed to take a break and slow down. What about you? Are you enjoying yourself?"
Ichigo: "Yeah. I'm not used to these sort of events and I wasn't even planning on coming until the headmaster gave me a suit. Even then, I still wasn't sure until you asked me-"
Yang: "Wait, wait, wait. The headmaster gave you that suit!?" she questions, wondering if Ichigo was just screwing with her.
Ichigo: "Um, yeah? So what?"
Yang: "The HEADMASTER gave you that suit. The HEADMASTER!?"
Ichigo: "And like I already said, yes. Seriously what's the big deal?" he asks, not realizing Ozpin's fame.
Ruby, already knowing this, is taking the news rather well.
...

Yang: "I don't believe you." she simply stated.
Ichigo: "Why would I lie?"
Ruby: "He's got a point, sis. Why would he lie?"
Ichigo: "If you don't believe me, then just ask him later or something."
Her face looks like she's making a mental note to check later.
Yang: "Okay, I will. Anyway, since I invited you, wanna dance?" she asks with a smile.
Ichigo: "Um... I don't actually know how to dance." he admits.
...
...
...
...
...
Ruby/Yang: "WHAT!? ARE YOU SERIOUS!?" they exclaim at the same time, extremely surprised.
Ichigo: "Yeah. Never really had time for dancing." he says, sort of telling the truth.
Yang: "Alright, that's it!" she says as she grabs his hand and drags him away.
Ichigo: "Hey! What are you doing!?" he protests.
Yang: "I'm taking you to the dance floor to teach you how to dance, obviously!"
Ozpin's POV
Professor Ozpin always kept a cool head and calmly analyzed any situation. He didn't get angry, he was always calm. He only resorts to violence when absolutely needed. He was, almost, able to tell when anyone was lying. He was smart and tactical.
But... Ichigo was an anomaly. He didn't realize it back when he was talking with Ichigo at the police station, but after thinking about it, it was brilliant. Ichigo was able to surprise him, Ozpin, the headmaster of Beacon. Because of this information, he didn't pay attention to Ichigo to see if he was lying or not. He was only thinking about how Qrow was going to react to this information and how Glynda was going to kill and/or castrate him.
Not only that, but he displayed an extreme mastery over Dust during the Initiation. He was able to create a mushroom cloud just from his one strike. That was just from the impact of his attack. He has easily displayed mastery over Dust. He already surpassed Glynda in that department. He can say, with absolute certainty, that Ichigo is the most skilled person on Remnant with Dust. That is no easy feat to accomplish. He dare say he surpasses the Maidens in pure ability.
Not only that, but with his Semblance being Teleporting, he would be a foe to be feared. He also suspects that Ichigo was holding back and he has more techiques at his disposal.
Ozpin (thoughts): 'How strong are you, Ichigo? And how strong will you become?'
Truly, an anomaly.
Glynda's POV
Glynda studied her entire life to become a Huntress. She trained, studied, to become the best in her craft. That is why she was here, a teacher, to teach the next generation. She teaches students because she is the best in her craft.
But when Ichigo Kurosaki, or should she say, Ichigo Branwen, displayed skills far beyond her skills, it was both invigorating and infuriating.
How could a 15 year old surpass her skills!? She trained her entire life for the people of Remnant, protecting them from threats they don't even know about. But here Ichigo was, a 15 year old, already surpassing her. He didn't have silver eyes nor did he have the Maiden's power, so how!?
She releases a sigh as she gazes at her students on the dance floor.
Glynda (thoughts): 'I shouldn't get angry. In fact, I should be happy. The next generation is already starting to surpass us. But he didn't have a teacher to study under. He figured out all of his skills by himself. Just wandering and battling Grimm. Maybe he's a genius among geniuses. Maybe I could ask him for some of his skills on how to use Dust, for the good of the world. Cause right now, the world isn't as safe as people believe it to be...'
