Hi Oliver,
I recommend starting with a simple loop drill, where the 10 loops round the back of the 12 to receive the ball again on the outside shoulder. A scissor's move between the 12 and 13 is also a simple but effective starting point. The backs move category and community section has some ideas that you could use.

LOOP MOVE (SIMPLE)
DESCRIPTION
See the diagram for suggested starting positions. 10 passes to 12. 10 loops around 12, 12 passes to 10, this pass should be as close to the opposition defensive line as possible. 10 should hit in tight off 12's shoulder. 13 should run a decoy line, allowing 10 some space to attack. Optional, 10 passes to 13, possibly in contact via an off-load. Think about how other players can support the ball carrier.
