Behind the Dorms, Tuesday Afternoon

[raspberryturk]

"Today, we're going to be speaking a bit more on the various invasions we've handled these past few years," Arthur began, "And for that purpose, I've invited Reno over to cover the ones he suffered through that most of you didn't." You know. FYI. He crossed his arms. "Many of us remember the vampires," he continued, "Slightly less of us remember

Talk to the Guys!

When they ping in.

Reno was there, with a stun baton resting on his shoulder, smirking out at the people gathered.

Don't take any 'rookie' comments personally, please. It's a term of endearment, actually.

"So, were you still planning to go for that run?"

Hello, Reno!

Re: Talk to the Guys!

[raspberryturk]

"Damn right," Reno replied, grinning at Arthur lopsidedly. "You think you can keep up?"

There was the red sheet, being waved in front of the bull again.

"I'm certainly capable of giving it a good go," said the bull, who had some real issues with the colour of Reno's hair.

Re: Talk to the Guys!

[raspberryturk]

It's completely natural, damn it!

... Because, seriously, Reno would have to be very stupid to spend money on hair dye if he couldn't even keep himself properly fed.

"Sounds kickass to me," said Reno, and that was another tap of his baton against his shoulder, thoughtfully. "You do a lotta just gettin' out to run, man?"

Just figuring out what pace he was going to be setting, here.

"I take a run every morning," Arthur replied, curtly. "I have to keep my stamina up, after all."

If Reno had anything like Zack's enhancements, it was a battle lost by default, but it wasn't like Arthur was willing not to try.

Reno's weren't anywhere near as thorough as Zack's, no, but there was a reason he was known around Gaia as the fastest Turk. He gave Arthur one of his patented 'too lazy to actually smile' smirks, and a shrug of his shoulders.

"Makes sense," he replied. "So, how long you figure you can keep goin', man?"

Re: Talk to the Guys!

[bitch_prince]

"Couple of hours, give or take," Arthur allowed, "Depending on my speed. How's your endurance these days?"

Hey, that question had the useful quality of being both a logical answer and a way to inquire after Reno's health without having to get all emotional about it.

Re: Talk to the Guys!

[raspberryturk]

Which Reno more or less figured, but he wasn't going to tell Arthur how thankful he was about that fact.

Even if he was.

"Man, I got a good breakfast in me an' everything, today. I could keep goin' for just about forever."

... Really, he could and did keep going about that long on days when he didn't get good breakfasts into him. Which wasn't exactly doing him any great favors, was it? Oopsie.

Re: Talk to the Guys!

[bitch_prince]

Yes, Arthur had noticed the general emanciated look he had about him, but was too tactful to point it out.

... ahahah. Arthur. Tactful.

"We'll see about that," he said, like the good sport he was, and cast another look over the reserves. "Give it a start as soon as everyone disperses."

Zack was here, too, looking a little less out of sorts than he did last week.

A little. The denial was setting in nicely, and he was even kinda smiling now, see? Totally fine.

Re: Talk to the Guys!

[bitch_prince]

Arthur was present, and looking a fair bit chuffed about the meeting so far.

... Not that invasions were anything to be chuffed about, but talking about them would be useful, and, well. He was aching for some action.

Leto was here too, unlike last week. Of course, he might have been here then too, but being a desert mouse he had been tiny enough to go unnoticed.
