[OOC: I figured why not? Open to a myriad of FF7 peoples - Tseng, Veld, Reeve, Reno and Zack, specifically. Just have at and don't worry too much about turn order, I guess

Veld was already at the bar and had already knocked back a drink (or two) since he had arrived but still far from being drunk. It wasn't hard to spot Tseng and the others when they stepped in but he didn't move at first, taking the time to light up another cigarette and sat back in his chair, watching them.
Tseng spotted Veld after a quick glance around, slightly amazed that he recognized the man even though he looked so much younger than his mental image of him. Were they the same age now, or close to?
He moved towards the bar and slid into a seat next to his old boss, giving him a nod and then gesturing to the bartender. "How are you?"
"I'll be better soon," Tseng said wryly. "It's been a rough few days."
He asked for another of what Veld was having, sure the strong amber liquid would be exactly what he was looking for. He didn't have any intention of getting drunk - despite what might be in the minds of his friends - but he did hope to relax a little with the help of a glass or two.
Veld nodded in understanding, flicking the ash from the cigarette onto the floor. "Yeah I know how that goes. That's why there is strong booze. And don't worry, I won't toss you in a ditch or something when you get drunk so drink up," he chuckled as the drinks were served, passing one to Tseng.
Tseng grinned, taking his glass and taking a healthy sip. "I'm not worried. Even if you were going to toss me in a ditch, I have Zack here. He can't get drunk no matter how much he consumes, and he can carry all of us if he has to."
"With any luck, it will come to that so good to know," Veld laughed as he picked up his own drink, eying the others who had come with Tseng then, curious but merely downed his own drink in one shot, cigarette hanging out one corner of his mouth.
Tseng caught the look. "I don't know if you know my companions," he said. "Reno's still a baby at this time, but he'll be one of the Turks one day. And Reeve will work for the company for a long time, as an engineer." And a member of the President's inner circle, but Veld didn't need to know that, either. "Zack will be a soldier in the company's security forces."

"Can't complain, especially after a few more drinks. You?" he grinned then, gesturing for the bartender to bring him another drink as well.
