(
Ω. I've done the the math enough to know the dangers of a second guessing. )
At the very least, he's more or less in uniform-- as "in uniform" as Reno ever got, with the fate of his tie unknown and the top buttons of his dress shirt undone. Everything about him read casual disarray, a stark contrast to his impeccably dressed partner, just steps behind him. He did, however, at least have the decency to look a little sheepish, even if fashionably late was his style.
"See," that tone of voice meant he was about to tell a likely outrageous story-- outrageous enough that it was probably true. "I was gettin' dressed, yeah? And I'm headin' out of the bathroom, kinda in a rush, and I shut the door-- and bam, it's like fuckin' hell, totally just locked my ponytail in the fuckin' door."
He had an animated way of speaking, gesturing thoughtlessly with his hands as he helped himself to a seat, his posture easy and liquid-- his foot tapped a little though, like he was wondering if he was in trouble. "So I had to wait for Rude to take the fuckin' door offa its hinges, 'cause I sure as fuck wasn't gonna like scalp myself to show up on time."
A pause, allowing a quick breather after his epic story.
"So, what's up, guys?"
