Reno shrugged his shoulders to Rude, and then he himself stood. He tossed his cup into the garbage bin, adjusted his jacket a little, and then followed Rude and Mirage to the end of the cafeteria.
"Well, then..." he mumbled, stuffing his hands into his pockets. "Maybe there's something interesting in the lounge? Can't really think of anywhere else for now..."
And now it was getting to the point where Mirage's actions were troubling him. He'd like to ask, but was a bit nervous of getting thrown down. If he'd ask, it would most certainly not be in the cafeteria. Maybe some better place.

Reno smirked. "Yep. But hey, it's alright. Just...you know, tell us what's wrong?" he said, shifting his weight. So she was worried about something, maybe, or perhaps it was something else. Angry? Upset? Was it because of yesterday, or was it the drugs?
Hell if I know, he thought, crossing his arms. She's like a brick wall. No way in hell I could get through it. Then again, she had been a lot more open with certain things than he'd thought.

After the trip from the church and back to HQ the girl made sure it didn't look to obvious that she was up to something. She had a bag with her and when she stepped into the Cafeteria she quickly grabbed as much as she could. Cake, rice, fruits, sushi, cookies, a couple bottles of water. And made a memo when she headed out she would need to grab some Sake. Not knowing if Cloud or Zack would drink any or not.
Stuffing a cookie into her mouth she blinked and had noticed a few turks that she knew. Jeez...do they have to be here? Looking at the red head, hopefully they didn't think anything was up.

Reno lifted his hands, shrugging his shoulders.
"Your troubles are bound within your first kill? I don't quite understand your story, but then again, look who you're talking to," he said, laughing.
"But I don't need to degrade myself," he mumbled. And this was so, Reno wasn't dumb. He was smart. Quick. Sometimes he just needed the right words.
[xD It would be so much easier if I was quick...but I'm not. XD]
His gaze turned quickly to Yuna. She had ran in, grabbed a s**t ton of food, and was looking right back at him.
"What?!" he asked, furrowing his brow. What the hell is she staring at? "...What's with all the..." but he shook his head. Who cares? She was probably taking it to her lover.

They girl eyed a burger and took it along with her wrapping it up and putting it in her pack and noticed a sake bottle sitting at a table that hadn't been drank yet. She smirked and snatched it hearing a Turk behind her freaking out not being able to find his sake.
She mad her way out and headed towards an Equipment room. Remembering they had spare Cellphones there she quickly grabbed two, stuffing them into her pocket. Yuna put the backpack into the car and drove off towards the church.

[D: I completely forgot there was a cafeteria. XD]
It was like a ritual. Rude would go to the coffee machine. Reno would go up front to get food. Both came back to their table, sitting down. Reno had taken only a few bites of his toast before lying his head down in his arms. He was damn tired.
"Didn't sleep much last night?" Rude asked, brow raised as he took a sip of his coffee.
"...I don't even know what happened last night," Reno responded, groaning into his arms. He pushed himself up to take another bite of toast, then grabbed Rude's cup from his hand, taking a sip, and then handing it back. Rude stared in almost disbelief as the redhead did this, completely unable to stop him.
"...You could have just asked for a cup..." Rude said slowly, staring down at his defiled cup. Reno sighed and stuffed the toast in his mouth.
"I didn't want a whole cup," he said.

It may have merely been a clever illusion of the mind, but Mirage found this particular elevator ride to be a great deal less uneventful than she was accustomed to. Indeed—for once, she found herself enjoying such subtle movement—normally it infuriated her to no end—the nameless sensation of motion though she herself was still.
She shifted slightly upon her heels at the cheery enough chime of the elevator as it prompted them into motion once more. Her steps were measured and deliberate, in truth. Although they lacked…well. It was not so much that they lacked a single thing—it was that they had, in truth gained—more of a carefree lift to them.
She spared not a glance at the space itself. She could…feel their presence, as foreign a concept as it was. Still, she made no move to falter towards them, nor abandon Tseng in so doing. She merely continued to put one foot in front of the other.

Tseng easily moved alongside Mirage, casting her a side glance before long, once they had exited the elevator and moved on into the cafeteria. There was a smile of curious amusement to his features and he chuckled gently after a while, looking forward then and moving towards the coffee table, pouring himself a generous cup of the freshly brewed liquid.
"You make me want to laugh," he said and in fact a small, light laughter fluttered from his lips as he topped off his cup of awakening. Long fingers curled about the warmth of Shin-Ra's second best drink by far, beaten only by certain liquors, and Tseng turned towards her with a light expression of unmasked pleasure. It was nice being so light hearted for once.
He knew that he would soon be off to his office, to the paperwork that was sure to have built up during the night while he had been gone. But for a moment more he lingered with Mirage, awaiting her descision before he made his move to return to the formalties of his personalized cage and home.

“How so?” She countered in turn, a mock defiant cant to her head, although her tones themselves were stippled in gilded amusement. “Not that I don’t aim to please, of course.” When it suits me, she added as a voiceless aside. Of course, she was merely being nothing short of coy. She was well aware of what so amused him about her mannerisms, and in truth—it was rather classic in its comic element.
She sighed, then, and at last gave tongue to the chuckled that so threatened to overwhelm. “Linger here anymore, and I’m sure your darling will be spitting reams of paper from one end of the office to the next with pure jealousy.” It was not that she attempted to rid herself of him in such a casual statement—quite the opposite. Even so…
With a gentle sigh, she lightly traced a forefinger down the length of his hand in a casual, hesitant gesture of affection. “Best be going, sir.” A sad smile at this, yet her heart was not so burdened with regret. She’d see him soon enough, once more.

It was like all those slow motion parts in a movie. Reno turned around, hearing footsteps, only to be facing Mirage and Tseng.
You make me want to laugh.
Tseng? Laugh? Impossible! His ears would start bleeding! He rubbed his forehead for a moment, wondering if he had really heard what he did.
"Mirage..." he said quietly, calming as he remembered who else was there. He was glad she was alive. And it seemed she wasn't upset, either. He had gotten a text message, but was too busy with his toast to check it. Rude had gotten the message as well, but hadn't said anything to Reno just yet. Seemed he wouldn't have to now. He smiled in the woman's direction.
"Glad to have you back."

[Oh if Tseng was only a mind reader I'd give you what for Reno! *Slowly dragged away by a more 'docile' Sephiroth.*]
Tseng smiled and bid Mirage a light farewell, inclining his head lightly towards Reno and Rude before he turned from them all and moved once more down the hallway.
Indeed, his darling would be throwing a fit. He knew her well enough to know that. ...and the fact that his secretary would be wondering what on earth had happened to him. He smiled a bit wider at that thought and came to the elevators, pushing the button and stepping inside when it arrived.
