Reno: Reno went to studio seven and began jotting down some lyrics but within five minutes, he had a foot tall pile of crumpled papers next to him. "Fuck." he cursed and literally facedesked, groaning when he realized just how bad an idea it was. "What the fuck're ya thinkin', yo?" he spoke, wishing Rude was there to answer. He had half a mind to punch him when he came back for doing this but he knew as angry as he was, the second he'd see his fiancé, he'd just be overjoyed as usual and hold him once he was settled back in their apartment.

Angeal: Angeal shook his head and put his phone down before picking up his secured work PHS and dialing Reno's. He waited patiently for it to be answered, not knowing if the man would be busy recording and unable to hear it or not. If the redhead didn't pick up he'd leave him a message about how Rude was currently doing and... no wait... this mission hinged on Reno NOT knowing things... damn, exactly what and how was he going to explain things to Reno without him exploding? Angeal nearly chickened out at the second ring and hung up, but his sense of honor stayed his hand. Reno deserved to know how his fiancé was after all.

Reno: Reno recorded a few old songs and managed to get some lyrics jotted down, though they weren't the best but at least his brain was moving forward a bit. He kept hearing Lucrecia's words creeping into his head and he wound up ripping a hole in the paper he was writing on. He had to remind himself he was in the studio and couldn't destroy the place no matter how much he wanted to. He'd get kicked out and have to replace the entire room if he did but her words...The Turk slammed his fist onto the desk and growled, wishing she was there so he could put a bullet between her eyes but froze when his phone went off, saving him the trouble of another spazz attack. "Hello?" His voice was/not/ happy and /not/ in a tone that sounded safe to play with. "What do ya want, Toffee-I mean-" Reno face-palmed himself and groaned. "What is it?"

Angeal: Angeal refrained from chuckling as Reno answered his hello with his codename and went on to promptly answer the man's question. "Just got a call from your fiancé. He's settled in it seems and sends his love to you. He'll call again when he makes port, but until then we won't hear anything from him." Just then there was knocking at the ravenette's door. Moving the phone away from his mouth but not his ear, so he wouldn't miss anything Reno said he said, "Come in."

Sephiroth: Sephiroth opened the door, "You busy Geal? My mom broke down earlier; apparently she said something very hurtful to Ketchup. She called it 'going ShinRa Scientist' and she's down in her lab still beating herself up for it. I was wondering if you knew what I could do to help her? Also we need to call AngelCake about some roses."

Angeal: Angeal grinned and motioned the man to sit down, when Sephiroth was stressed he simply ran his mouth no matter if the person was obviously busy or not. "I'm on with Reno at the moment Seph. We can talk when I'm done?"

Sephiroth: Sephiroth finally noticed the phone to his friends ear and blushed, "Sorry, yeah... sorry."

Reno: Reno heard Sephiroth's voice in the background but didn't think anything of it. Angeal knew too! Reno clamped his hand around his phone, nearly breaking it as his anger rose again. The fact that Sephiroth was there meant he knew as well. He spoke slowly with a tone laced with rage, obviously struggling not to go over there and take a bat to the man's face. "Tell him I love him too. Let me ask ya somethin', 'Geal'!" Reno's voice was rising with each word his spit through his fixed jaw. "Do ya want me to come through this fuckin' phone an' break yer dailin' fingers?! If not, tell me what the fuck is goin' on, ya stupid oompaloompa!"

Angeal: Angeal winced and moved his PHS away from his ear as Reno's rage came crashing through it. "If you are going to be childish and threaten people who can beat the damn Turk out of your ass Reno, I am not going to talk to you." Angeal's voice was dead calm, he was very serious however. "All I know is that Rude will be calling SOLDIERs instead of Turks to check in. And he told me to give you that message. We also ALL have orders to keep YOU safe. Orders that actually came from Rude, I believe that while you may have the most creative threats ever given to President Rufus, Rude so far has the scariest." Without moving the phone away this time Angeal addressed Sephiroth, "Why exactly do we need to contact AngelCake about roses? And is 'going ShinRa Scientist' anything like 'going Turk' on someone... cause I think I may have reason to fear your mother if that's the case." Angeal shuddered.

Sephiroth: Sephiroth smirked and punched his friend in the arm, "Don't be an ass Geal, mom was crying her eyes out for what she said to Ketchup! CRYING!" The man stood as his voice rose, "What the HELL are you supposed to do with a woman's tears! Gah! I don't know HOW to be a son! My life is so messed up! Fuckin' Hojo, if he were still alive I'd kill him again!"

Angeal: Angeal rolled his eyes; these long haired, green eyed boys and their drama!

Reno: "I fuckin' dare ya, Hewley. Ya could use the workout anyway! An' this ain't some stupid threat contest, dumbass! I don't fuckin' care what Rude ordered ya to do! I'm fine on my own an' I don't need some SOLDIERS ghostin' me! Turks are the spies o' ShinRa anyway! Oh, as fer Seph there, tell'im his mother can kiss my ASS!" Reno wasn't sure how but he crushed his phone. He looked at it and saw that large pieces were falling away and there were many cracks over its surface. "Fuckin' Soldiers." He chucked what was left of the device at the pavement and walked back to HQ.

Angeal: Angeal shook his head, "Drama Queen." He turned back to Sephiroth and the silverette's far more pressing problem in Angeal's eyes. "Sit down Seph! It's not the end of the world. I'm sure you did just fine. Hugged her out of instinct and everything."

Sephiroth: Sephiroth's eyes whipped to his friend's, "How did you know?" The silver general sank back into the chair with a perplexed look on his face.

Angeal: Angeal smiled at him, "Because it's instinctual. Even if you don't fully understand what 'comfort' really is, you automatically know how to do the basics. You're born with that, just like everybody else. Lucrecia's a strong woman, but I'd have you or one of our boys stay with her until Reno's calmed down." Angeal was rather angry at Reno for not even attempting to understand the position they were all in, it was just ALL about /him/ and how /he/ was being "left out". Fucking stupid Turk anyway. Angeal had the utmost respect for Rude but right now all he wanted to do was damage Reno for his insolence and childish attitude.

Sephiroth: Sephiroth smiled at him hopefully, "Thanks Angeal." His friend's words had calmed him considerably.

Angeal: "Now about these roses?" Angeal asked and Sephiroth went on to explain about Reno's plan. Angeal sighed and nodded, "I'm sure Aerith wouldn't have a problem getting the flowers. And it's nice to still want to help Reno out even when he's being a complete asshole." They left it at that and went back to work; Sephiroth going back to stay with his mother in case Reno decided to cause problems.
