Summary: Tifa tries to figure out how they work.
They fight. A lot.
When they fight it's usually because she'll be her bratty nagging self, and he'll be his irritable Turk-ish self. It turns out that those personas clash.
She'll say something to him that's meant to be taken lightly.
He'll take it seriously and say something that really hurts her.
When that happens she'll fight him with words for a little longer. He'll just brush off all her stabs with remarks that show he doesn't care what she thinks.
When he really gets her angry she'll throw things, and there have been a few times where she's even taken out her Conformer and used her Bahamut materia on him. There was one time he had the misfortune of getting her furious on a night she had the Knights of the Round equipped.
Usually the fight will end when she leaves the apartment from the window. She won't come back for a couple of days, and Reno will have to look for her when she's helping Tifa in the bar.
He won't say sorry, but he'll act sweetly and flirt with her like crazy. He butters her up until she can't resist when he pulls her into a kiss.
When Tifa asks her why she lets Reno get away without saying sorry, Yuffie tells her that when Reno is the one to be mad at her, most the time all she has to do is undress. She winks at her and says that she of all people should know that make-up sex is always the best kind.
When Tifa is about ready to give up on figuring them out, she catches them one day outside the bar.
He's telling her he loves her and she says she knows.
The eavesdropping Tifa can hear it in their voices despite the lack of words in their conversation. They don't need to say sorry because each of them knows that the other is sorry just by showing up again.
