" for the purpose of this trip it is just a drop off. don't want to get the medical team upset or anything. " or anyone on the team for that matter.r he has been lectured quite enough in one week.
“I think that’s an unfair description of your role.” Rufus says over the noise of the helicopter. “On this occasion, certainly — but it isn’t limited to being my air taxi, huh?”
\\ once I'm free from work I'll get to replies properly
\\ my favourite theory is that rude has a full-back, yakuza style tattoo from his days before joining the turks. probably some interesting piercings too considering the amount of piercings he has in his ears.
" naturally. my job is just to drop you off, sir. " rude flicked in the controls, letting the engine hum to life. this was honestly muscle memory at this point. checks done quickly before letting the copter slowly lift. he never would be just a escort, but the ulcerative was being bored in bed.
Rufus is skeptical in what Rude tells him; but then again he’s not a medical professional so he really can’t say or not whether it’s too soon for the Turk to be flying again or not. “— yeah but… sure, sure I guess.” Defeated, he takes the back seat of the chopper. “You won’t be doing any field
" you're such a sweetheart. " he couldn’t help a soft chuckle and neither the clear sarcasm as he picked up the pack. clearly not caring about the medical teams rules at this point. he was so over this recovery. (+)
— them into the other man’s waiting hands. “who’s to say? heidegger has had it in for me ever since I cockblocked him at works drinks last winter.”
" you know damn well why it matters. " he was actually upset. genuinely. despite being something that showed very little in terms of emotions or even anger for that matter. frankly, he was pissed. with how badly he got beat up, [+]
— judgement he senses beneath it. “does it really matter what happened? it’s dealt with.”
" information on what exactly? you know the rules, vinc. you can't just walk in here like you still work for shinra. "
" not exactly no , I'm here because I need information on something..still good morning to you Rude."
" what happened this time? " rude was not really gentle in the slightest. holding reno by the jaw as he turned his head a bit. checking if the idiot had a concussion. when it seemed fine, he let go.
grunting in annoyance, reno reluctantly takes the gel pack from his partner’s hands and leans back in his seat to rest it over some of the more livid bruising breaking out along the left side of his face. “since when have I ever been the model for good behaviour?”
" hobby? " honestly, besides work there was not much else he did. unless you consider going out drinking a hobby. flying halicopters was also just part of the job. " bird watch, if given enough free time. "
Bored? Who’s bored? I’m working on my cross-stitch. Don’t you have a hobby?
" I can still fly. besides, the works of it is over. things are healing as they should. " besides, he needed something to do. sitting around and just doing paper work was really starting to urk him.
“As I’ll ever be.” Walking, boarding onto the chopper for it to take them to Junon. “No need to stay, Rude — you’re still getting over your injury so I won’t keep you.”
or they have no reason to be concerned given how you deal business still with the turks .
Been a while Rude… came to return Knife’s side arm after upgrading the materia slot in it… hilarious enough that I can pass security as Knife….
rude siged, handing over an icepack as much as he just wanted to smack him a little with it. this wasn't how he wanted to spend his day off. " I swear you just don't know when to behave. "
god his face hurts today. it’s his own fault for fighting but — he can’t say he regrets it.
" considering tseng dragged me out of that mess, I doubt many would want to lecture. " he gave a sigh, seeming to be actually frustrated now with this situation. hebhated not being to walk much less do work. he actually felt like a damn prisoner at this point. " at least bring me a pack of smokes
— simmers behind his eyes. that rude and tseng of all their team would be the ones to be caught unawares doesn’t bode well, and reno can’t help but wonder where the next target lies. “laney been in to lecture you yet?”
" oh? but you have that privilege? " rude would scoff, though it was more from amusement than annoyance. referring specifically to all the times he had to mend wounds and clean up cuts for reno because the medical team "asked too many questions" .
“like I’m one to complain to strangers about turk business.” clicking his tongue against his teeth, reno drops himself nearby, stretching out a foot to push rude’s good leg lightly with the tip of his shoe. “as if you’d ever get that privilege.”
》 it's hard to ignore a missing piece in your life. especially when stuck in rhe medical facility where moving around wasn't much of an option. no work to distract you and no one talking to fill the silence.
// man needs to go out on dates because it is getting sad
the faintest twitch touches rude's brow at that, though his attention never leaves the controls. if anything, the reprimand only earns a quiet exhale through his nose. " yes, sir. " the engines hum to life beneath them, his hands moving through the final checks with practiced efficiency. [+]

just for when you're around, at least. you can complain to someone at wall market after, deal? at least not askin' you to be my nurse
mm. you really know how to twist my arm, you know that?
not like you're being inconvenienced. besides, it comforts me just a little. beats stuck in a room alone with nothin' to do.
because I am not furniture, and don’t come cheap.
》 will definitely use the cast as an excuse to use reno as a leg rest —
could honestly use the company. but if you're here to kiss it better I beter be sedated first.
it just means we gotta take better care of you now, partner.
》 first day and I'm already bored ... this is going to be a long day —
