"I just came in for a drink, myself. I have to head out of town first thing." He checked his phone before sending off a message and then setting another empty glass down.

"I'm sure there'll be plenty of excitement soon enough. Alex is going to be stopping in as soon as she gets clear.

And I think her sister is working tonight."

"Hoo boy, 'nother night of the Wonder Sisters show." Sitting up, he looked over at the bar trying to see if Elena was there yet. She's always good for a tease or two. "Makes me glad I left the family behind."

"For you maybe. I'm heading out in a minute. I just stopped in for a quick drink like I said." He shifted to stand.

"Had enough of that shit at work today, I'll see you when I'm back from 'vacation'"

"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.

"Besides, bar's full of people."

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."

"Here"

Kieran drops a handful of gil on the table before he straightens, heading for the door and then out into the night air.

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?"

[two_guns_turk]

"You must really be desperate for company. What's on your mind?" Kieran stopped to look at him for a moment, one eyebrow arching slightly.

"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?"

[two_guns_turk]

"Not really. I was heading home, like I said." Kieran lit a cigarette and shook his head.

"Yeah, the last thing I needed was to be in the same room with those two again. They should sell tickets."

"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?"
