Elena and Reno (ambiguous)
Communication is a Skill
"I've been an asshole to ya."
Elena responds with a non-committal grunt, struggling to keep Reno upright. If this is some messed-up attempt to cajole her into bed…
"Ain't personal, 'kay?" he slurs. "It's the job. It… changes ya."
"The job made you an asshole?" She snorts. "Here I thought you were born with it."
"You ain't listening. This… this fucking job… gonna change ya."
Elena grits her teeth. Months as a Turk, and still he thinks she can't handle it.
"Fuck it." Reno hiccups. "I'm too drunk for this shit."
"You sure are." And she's nowhere near drunk enough.
