[RL with Reno]

Jul 12, 2009 18:33

The honky tonk had been set up in a ramshackle building in a part of Edge that was still being built back up. Half the building had collapsed, but the rest of it was still completely intact, and had a fresh coat of paint and new windows, which vibrated with the music going on inside ( Read more... )

Reno was there, actually he was early, probably one of the few times he was actually early in getting somewhere. Normally he was either just on time or late, of course when work was involved he was almost always late. He showed his abilities through sheer talent as opposed to promptness and whatever came along with being a typical man of business. He wasn’t a typical business man and didn’t see the point in acting like one so long as he did his job well and he did. Reno was one of the best at what he did as well and of course you had to have the stomach for it--his stomach was lined with steel ( ... )

Tseng didn't think the bras hanging from the chandeliers were charming - he thought they were Reno's style, though.

He glanced without much interest at the impromptu strip show going on on top of the bar and moved to a clear spot to order a draught beer. That in hand, he made his way over to Reno's table and slid into the seat opposite him.

"Nice place," he said ironically.

"I thought so," Reno said with a smirk, though he was pretty sure Tseng didn't think it was a nice place...or rather, he was trying to humor Reno. This little honky tonk didn't suit the leader of the Turks at all if Reno was being honest--of course that made it all the more amusing.

"So," Reno began before, leaning forward in his seat so that Tseng could hear him and taking another swig of beer, "how was your day dear? The prez got you workin' on the Kalm thing too?"

Another man might have rolled his eyes at Reno's use of the word 'dear', but Tseng didn't show much visible reaction, except perhaps a tightening around his lips that wasn't quite a smile, but wasn't quite a frown, either.

"President ShinRa wants us to go to Kalm with the rookie and explain things to the mayor of Kalm, yes," he said. "We're leaving tomorrow morning by helicopter."

He took a sip of his own beer. "Speaking of the rookie, what do you think of him?"

Reno slumped back into his seat, the hand that’d been fondling Tseng’s pecks not a moment before was now wrapped around his beer mug as he once again took another draught of the bitter liquid. He thought about what the other was saying and took a moment to process it in to something that made sense at the moment. Of course men were a fine option sometimes, he didn’t mind men at all, especially beautiful ones or ones with a strong personality. Sometimes men could be more fun too, they didn’t just lay there expecting Reno to take care of everything--though to be fair he’d met some pretty aggressive women in his day. Still, an assertive man with initiative was nice from time to time, that’s not what he had the problem with. The problem was anyone capable of keeping him in line was a man, not that Reno was considering marriage seriously at all, but still. At Tseng’s last words Reno glanced upwards, his brow knitted, “why’s the fact that you don’t wanna marry me a problem?”

Tseng raised an eyebrow. "If you were considering me as marriagable material," he pointed out. "Then the fact that I don't want to marry you could be a stumbling block."

Of course, this whole conversation was ludicrous, but that was sort of the fun of it, too. Tseng could have fun, it just usually took at least a beer or two to get him to do it in any obvious way.

“Well…we’re only supposin’ anyway, I’m not bein’ serious,” Reno said with a dismissive air about him once again, really it was one of those interesting hypothetical topics. The red-haired Turk was still a bit confused and he wasn’t exactly sure what Tseng was implying still thinking it over his finger tapping his lip idly, “so are you saying you’re not marriage material or are you saying I’m not marriage material? Or are you saying neither one of us is?”

Tseng drained his glass and leaned back against his chair. "I think I'm saying that neither of us really is," he said wryly. "For a multitude of reasons. And you're right, we're not being serious."

He gestured to the waitress, then hesitated and got to his feet.

"Excuse me for a moment," he said, still polite though he wobbled a bit as he got up. "I hope the bathrooms are more tasteful than the rest of the decor," he added, before turning to head away.
