Everyday scenes with Reno – more or less

A series of different episodes. Written in play form.

There'll be five episodes per chapter!

Important:

Elena, Reno and Rude are sharing an apartment.

They have a dog as a pet. The dog will come in later on.

Reno is left-handed.

The episodes are unrelated unless stated differently.

A/N: Please take no offense to what I write about Reno! I love him!! He's just the perfect "victim"… And it's just fun!

Episode #1: Flu and dirty dishes

Reno and Elena are sitting at the table.

Reno (eats) "Hey, that's really good, Laney!"

Elena (sniffles) "Thank you…" (just sits at the table, not eating anything)

Reno (looks at her) "Aren't you hungry?"

Elena (sniffles again) "No, somehow I have no appetite…"

Reno (looks now really worried) "Yo, I'm worried about you! You look like you're feverish!"

Elena (sniffles once again) "I think that too…"

Reno (stops eating) "Maybe you have the flu… You should be in bed! In these cold months of winter it's very important to watch the health!"

Elena (looks pale) "I know."

Reno (stands up) "Go immediately to bed, Laney! And don't worry about the dishes!"

Elena (stands up too) "Okay…"

Reno (leads Elena to her bedroom) "I stack the dishes and you can wash up when you feel better again!"

Elena (ironically) "Thanks, Reno… What would I just do without you?"

Episode #2: Oyster

Reno sits at the table. In front of him is a plate with oyster. Reno looks at Elena.

Elena (instructs him) "Okay, let's try this again… Firstly, take the fork loosely in the left hand… Now stick carefully but hard into the oyster and get the flesh out of it while you hold the shell in the right hand! But this time, don't yell 'Gotcha'!"

Episode #3: Question of meaning

Tifa and Elena are sitting at a table, drinking coffee.

Tifa (drinks) "Elena, Reno is such a guy…"

Elena (nods) "Yeah, he's quite a character."

Tifa (shakes her head) "This wasn't meant as a compliment! Why do you live with anyone like Reno?"

Elena "Hm… it's difficult to explain… It may be that Reno is loud… It may be that he is childish… And it may be that he's insensitive but…" (thinks about it) "Hm… yeah, why in fact do I live with him actually?"

Episode #4: Division of labor

Reno and Rude are sitting at a table. On this table is a fruit tart.

Elena (from another room) "Reno! Rude! Whatcha doin'?"

Reno (while looking at the tart) "Um… nothing…"

Rude "…"

Elena "Don't you dare to touch the tart! As soon as I'm dressed, I'll bring it to the charity bazaar of the company!"

Reno and Rude are still sitting at the table and seemingly innocent looking around.

Sometime later the tart is gone…

Reno (chews and swallows) "Don't bother with the dress, Laney – we decided to buy the tart ourselves…"

Rude (sighs)

Elena (comes into the room) "Reno!"

Reno "Hey, I said we…"

Rude "Hm."

Reno (indignantly) "Why do you always insult me, yo?"

Elena "Because it usually is your fault."

Rude just grins.

Episode #5: The bravest man

Elena and Rude are sitting in the office, doing paper work. Reno is walking by the room.

Elena "Come and sit for a moment, Reno."

Reno comes and sits down across from Elena.

Elena "Listen to what I have to say… Most people are scared of something in their life. But not you! You're the bravest man I know!"

Reno and Rude both lift a brow.

Elena (ignores it) " You can do everything you want to do! So, go and let us be proud of you!"

Reno (stands up) "Yeah, I will!" (he goes)

Rude "What's the matter? Must he go to the President?"

Elena (shakes her head) "No. He's just on his way to the monthly health check."
