[ Tseng just really isn't comfortable with all of this. He would say that world-hopping makes him cranky, but he hasn't really done it enough to set a trend. Yet. Gaea, he hopes this won't be a recurring thing
( Read more... )
[ Man, Reno's up to his eyeballs in papers and shit, and he's got about ten of them in his arms trying to figure out what's due when and-- Fucking end of quarter what is this bullshi--
...oh.
Oh shit.
That's.
That's a very familiar silhouette, yes it is.
Fuck. Uh. He should like, maybe. Put some of this crap away and at least pretend like he hasn't been acting like a complete tool this entire time. Most probably.
...maybe if he just slowly backs up the way he came, Tseng won't see him. ]
[ kaldjhaskjda GOD FUCKING DAMMIT, TSENG. That's creepy. One of these days, he's going to shoot you with a tranq. gun and lop off that ponytail to see if you really are hiding a set of eyes back there. ]
Uh-- [ Dammit. brb shoving papers into bag. Okay, uh. Where were we. He strolls up as nonchalantly as he can, as though he doesn't know that Tseng knows he was trying to sneak off not a few seconds back. ]
Not long. Just this morning. [ He pauses to turn around, so that they can converse just like normal people. ] You look like you've already settled in. How long have you been here?
And Reno sees that look Tseng's giving him. He sniffs a little, swiping the back of his hand over his nose before puffing out his chest a bit. ]
Damn right they're keeping me busy. I got the hottest tutor on this side of the universe. She's got legs that just keep on going forever. Made a believer out of me'n everything.
Uh, 'kay. [ Reno falls into step next to Tseng readily, like getting back on a bike. It's all more or less second nature to him by now. In the Turks, you march to your orders first and ask questions later.
...of course, that doesn't mean Reno doesn't start poking his nose where it may or may not belong at his own earliest convenience. ]
[ Setting Tseng up to be crushed by a flying van, Reno? ]
You've been here for a few months? [ That's a lot to think about. He doesn't remember Reno disappearing, and thinking about it just gives him a headache. ]
[ This is why Rude is already getting wrinkles, Reno. Tseng massages between his brows and sighs. ]
Right. If you see her, let her know that I'd like to have a word with her. And as for you-- [ He shifts his hand to the side so that he can better fix Reno with that Tstare of his. ] What can you tell me about this place that I don't already know?
...oh.
Oh shit.
That's.

Me? Uh. ...couple months now? They got me enrolled in classes and shit, man.
Don't tell me they got you too? [ Gives Tseng a wide-eyed, scrutinizing look. ]

Of course. [ As troublesome as it is, this is all so much funnier when it's happening to Reno. ] I'm glad to see that someone is keeping you busy.

[ Tseng looks left, right, and then left again. ]
Let's go.

Somewhere with less of a crowd. Do you know a place?

I think so, yeah. Cissy's probably kept better records than me, though.
--hey, you wouldn't've happened to have brought Rude along with you or anything, would ya?
Not that I, er. Miss him or anything like that.

Is anyone else here, Reno?
