When Rude informed her that he could teach her a lot of things, she found a lascivious smirk creeping onto her lips as her eyebrow arched. "Oh, can you now?" she was in the middle of chuckling at him, noticing his sudden color, as Reno came back into the room.

"I know, aren't they?" she gushed, taking another bite of hers and closing her eyes. "Hell, I don't even really like mint, and these are awesome--I think Rude should teach me to make them. Maybe I can teach Sandy later, when she's not being a big important lawyer." Carefully balancing her muffin on one thigh, Tifa set her can of Dr. Pepper on her other thigh and endeavored to open it with one hand.

She succeeded in bending back her fingernail, and after a short but very colorful lamentation as such, managed to drop her muffin onto the bedspread, getting crumbs everywhere. "Son of a bitch!" Well, at least her soda was open; taking the rim of the can in her teeth, she inspected the injury, a white stress-line across the upper third of her nail bed. "Damn, that hurt," she grumbled, though through the soda can it sounded more like, "Dmm, thuh hrrn."

Reno gave her a reproachful look and reached for her hand, frowning. "You ninny," he chided; "why don't you just ask for help? I have two hands...and whoever heard of a boy breaking a nail, eh?"

A grin snaked across his face and he pulled her hand to his lips, kissing the backs of her fingers. "There. All better," he said, and handed her back the dropped muffin, brushing the crumbs off the bedspread and onto the floor. Eh, he could vacuum tomorrow.

Just as Rude was about to do the finishing bite on his muffin he happened to glance over as Reno kissed Tifa on the back of her hand. Kissed...Tifa...hand... The only thought that came to his mind was '...What?' as his mouth laid wide open like a cargo door as his grip slacked releasing the remains of his snack, falling to the floor.

He didn't know what to say, or ask. Hell he was afraid to ask even if the answer was fairly obvious he didn't really want to know.

Tifa just burst out laughing. "Yeah, but who wants a weakling girl around anyhow? If I can't open a can of soda on my own, you might as well just shoot me now," she joked, slipping the soda can into her lap and balancing it against her thigh so she could use her free hand to lift the muffin to her lips.

"Besides, if you did break a nail, then where would we be? I'd have deferred my feminine duties to you, and then Rude would have to be twice the man to make up for it." She grinned at him, noticing he looked a little uneasy, and she assumed he was alarmed at the prospect. Casting a wink his way, she assured him, "Not that you'd have any trouble, mm?"

Reno frowned at his hands, holding them out in front of him palm-down, looking at his long fingers. Then he flipped his hands over and folded his fingers to his palm, scrutinizing the nails. Then he looked at Tifa. He didn't figure he had enough nail to really break them off, but...whatever. His mouth twitched into a frown.

"Well next time let me open your damn soda," he complained, irrationally irritated for some reason. He somehow felt like there was something going on here that he wasn't aware of, and it had him peeved.

There were indeed shenanigans afoot and he really wanted to be let into the loop.

This situation was awkward at best. Was she...flirting with Rude? Right in front of her boyfriend? Even though he wasn't entirely sure of the situation, he had a feeling nothing good would come of this at this rate.

All rude could do was tug at his collar, clearing his throat while his bald head beaded with sweat.

Tifa just laughed and nudged Reno with her shoulder playfully. "Oh come on, I'm teasing you," she chuckled. "You're about as manly as they come--how many girls can say her guy has saved her life? I got fucking shot and you saved me, remember? Don't frown so much..." She knew what was wrong.

She knew exactly what was wrong.

Tifa had never really...had a boyfriend before. She'd started to, back in Reno (the city), back when she was a freshman, but then her dad died and everything turned to hell and she joined the mob and spent the next couple years honing her ability to flirt and entice, and now it seemed she couldn't stop. And it was upsetting Reno; he was...jealous?

The thought warmed her, though it shouldn't have. She felt bad. "But fine, if you want to be a pillar of chivalry, Reno, then I'll have you open my sodas from now on." And she examined her nail, frowning--it wasn't too long (she needed to cut them, but that was hard with only one hand), but it'd bent back deep.

Nngh, she'd live. She had a gunshot wound, for fuck's sake.
