Sugar Rush

Sugar Rush is the femslash ship between Ruby Rose and Nora Valkyrie from the RWBY fandom.

Canon
Nora and Ruby first met at Beacon and quickly became friends. As Team RWBY and Team JNPR settled into their new school life they all often sat together at lunch. At one point Nora and Yang started a food fight, which the other members of their teams including Ruby joined in at some point. During the vytal festival Ruby and Nora cheer each others teams on when they participate in the tournament.

After the fall of Beacon, Ruby takes off with Nora and the rest of team jnpr to head off to Mistral. In "The Next Step", she and Ruby get along very well and they were able to perform a combo attack on a Geist. Despite all of this, she appears to be in disagreement with Ruby in how their "Team" should be called. She argues that since Jaune, Ren and herself were a team already and outnumber her, it overrules the fact that Ruby is the de facto leader of the group.

During their battle against Tyrian Callows, Nora is very protective of Ruby, as she tells Tyrian that she refuses to let Tyrian take Ruby by force. This protectiveness shows itself again in volume 5 when Oscar Pine shows up and asks for Ruby. In "Vault of the Spring Maiden", After Ruby is knocked out by Emerald Sustrai Nora and Oscar then come rushing toward her to see if she's ok. She then promises Ruby that she will cover for Jaune as he heals Weiss. In volume 7 Ruby joins Nora and Ren as they go to Robyn's election party. In "Worst Case Scenario", Ruby tries to calm Nora and Ironwood down as they had gotten into an argument. She puts a reassuring hand on Nora's shoulder and tries to act as the voice of reason.
