"Oh, c'mon, you're not leavin' already?" His arm drapes over the back of the chair, finally giving him a good looking over. "You just got here. Hey, I'll tell ya what I'm planning." Okay, so that might have been something of a ploy, but sitting alone when he could have company? That was just damned depressing.
"I'm flying out at daybreak. Not like I can sleep when I've got to babysit a rookie." He met the other man's gaze for a long moment before he shook his head slightly.
Slowly, Reno nods, disappointed but hey, that was the job. He understood. "Sorry... didn't realize you were leavin' that early. Guess I'll see ya when you come back."
After a few minutes, footsteps follow him, Reno's usual quick pace pretty recognizable. "Hey, wait up. I'll go with ya." Hands in pockets, Reno trotted up, blazer zipped against the cold. "Y'don't mind, do you?"
"Decided I didn't really want to watch a rerun of the Dueling Sisters." Reno shrugged, standing next to him with both hands in his pockets. "Sorry, didja have plans?"
"Gets kinda annoying. Most the time I feel sorry for the kid. But... that's not really why." Reno scratched the side of his head awkwardly, squinting off down the street, then moved to rub the tattoo under one of his eyes. "I guess I just felt like it. It's not like we get to spend a lot of time together with the job." Then, something else Kieran said caught his attention. "Are ya stressed or something?"
