Characters: Reno, OPEN
Location: Security Station
Rating: PG-13 for Reno's mouth

It had taken him a bit to get up also, but he'd ignored the throbbing in his head, gotten some painkillers and downed them before going to get dressed for his morning watch. He continued down the hall now, shifting his paperwork to under his arm and holding two small, styrofoam cups of coffee with one hand, the other gripping his bottle of aspirin.

Neji had promised Reno he'd bring him some painkillers, so he figured it would be best to do that now and the coffee . . was just to help.

Once he reached the station, he switched things again, this time tucking the bottle into his pocket for a minute and opening the door, peering in at the redhead afterwards. ``Someone wanted a bit of help with a headache?`` He'd almost said hangover, but thought better of it for now.

As the smell of coffee got stronger, the Turk looked up and nodded at the person entering the room. Apparently, he and Neji managed to be on speaking terms after last night's antics- at least the other guard was nice enough to bring him his second-most preferred beverage along with something to help with the massive headache he'd nursed all morning.

"Thanks. You'd think it'd be mostly the patients who feel like they want to die, but today it's me."

The Turk laughed, and after taking the bottle from Neji he downed a handful of the pills inside followed by the contents of one of the coffee cups. Sure, he'd most likely die an early death, either by liver failure or in his chosen line of work- he'd accepted that years ago- but anything to help how he felt right now was more than welcome.

"Thank Holy I didn't go to that picnic. I see you skipped out too."

He nodded back at Reno and stepped into the room, moving to set down the two cups of coffee and tossing his paperwork onto the other nearby table, for once not caring if the paper fell out even though it didn't.

``Oh, yes. I am surprised that I have even gotten up right now, but I'm not going to miss the shift. The Head would probably kill me.``

Neji grabbed one of the chairs and dragged it up next to the other male's, sitting down and leaning back against it, his fingers rubbing at his temples just barely. The throbbing was going down, though it was sure taking it's sweet time. He really hoped the painkillers would kick in fast.

``. . . actually, I was suppose to be there, but I guess I'm going to be late.``

"Late's better than not showing up at all. I made it here on time, for once. Guess sittin' in this cave isn't all that bad. This place needs a coffeemaker, otherwise I don't have much else to bitch about."

Head still throbbing, Reno rubbed the back of his neck and leaned back in his chair before putting his feet up on the desk. Sure, it was almost naptime again, but the redhead wasn't about to act that unprofessionally in front of the other guard.

"Hope you had fun last night. I did."
