[And presumed that Reno, who was better at finding Zack than he was, had already met the man. He had assumed that the two had connected, and it was an understanding between them.]
[ his happiness receptors are kind of broken at the moment dude. Reno sort of inhales, and then just—sighs, exasperated and not in an impatient, angry way; an upset way. ]
[ it's so fucking wrong. it was easy to miss when he himself was much younger, but now... yeah, it's super wrong. especially with Zack being from well before The Incident—they live in a fucked up world, it's never been realer to Reno more than now. honestly, he feels sick. ]
Rude...
[ he doesn't really know how to say what he's thinking. he just kind of hopes the waver in his voice is good enough, since they're not there in person to communicate visually. after a moment, he does find one thing to say, at least. ]
[Zack Fair: Honorary Turk. They'd failed their team. They'd failed Zack before. They failed in letting Shinra get to the point that dropping a plate was needed. They weren't going to fail in this.]
[ Reno inhales slowly, just thickly enough to be indicative of a certain degree of emotionality he's clearly trying to avoid succumbing to, and promptly Gets A Fucking Grip. Rude knows just what to say to tip him back into his typical state of "god i hate cloud and think of nothing else but hating cloud" ]
That motherfucker. Boss says he was involved in the shit Hojo pulled in the basement.
[ that would make sense. but why would he go around calling himself a fucking SOLDIER? it's infuriating at worst, really. it's an insult to the SOLDIERs who actually were there, for better or worse. Reno's quiet for a moment. ]

Date: 2020-05-12 04:54 am (UTC)[ just— verbally keysmashing his anger out again, and then... sighing (and wheezing). blowing up on Rude is not helping. ]
Y'know? I just really didn't need that type of shit today.

I was just so shocked to see him. And happy.

First step, keeping him safe from Cloud.

Date: 2020-05-13 01:11 am (UTC)Had a bit of a run in with him, in a bar. He really thinks he was there. As an assigned Soldier. But we both know better. Zack never came back either.
[Here's the question that matters.]
He has Zack's sword. How?
