Attitude: Deal With It, Friday, Period 2
When students came into the classroom today, they'd see Reno, perched up on the desk like maybe he'd forgotten how chairs worked, just kind of looking around the room and taking it all in.
"Shit, it's been too friggin' long, yo," he muttered, a grin on his face before he looked up at the students again. "Oh, hey. Rookies."
And one tiny version of his boss, which really only added to the amusement.
"I don't know if you guys are all lost, actually thought it'd be a good idea to be here, or someone signed you up for this class, and I don't care. You're all stuck with me until the end of this summer term now, ain't you all thrilled?" He did not pause for their replies, no. "In the next few weeks I'm gonna teach you some important crap about attitude, lookin' cool in the face of crazy, sellin' that you maybe actually got your shit together, and havin' a good time while doin' it. But first, we're gonna get some things offa our chests, here."
He lifted his chin at his class and smirked.
"Last day you're gonna be asked to do this until next term, so suck it up an' give me some introductions. Name, what you're doin' in this class, and an insult someone's thrown at you. Then throw an insult back at me, preferably along with," and he cheerfully flipped his students the finger, "a rude gesture, yo. Get it outta your systems now. You'll be wantin' to do it for the next few weeks anyway."
He assumed. Sometimes students actually liked him.
Those students were confusing.

Re: Introductions!
Rufus rolled his eyes.
"The SOLDIER here is more useful than you are."
Re: Introductions!
"Yeah, but I get paid better."
But oof, there was a low blow. Low blow.
Re: Introductions!
"Make me wonder why," Rufus snarked back.
Re: Introductions!
"If you ain't figured out why yet, it means we're doin' our job right," Reno pointed out.
And now he was having a battle of wits with a baby version of his boss.
This was so weird.
Re: Introductions!
"Please, even children know what the Turks do," Rufus scoffed. "I stand by my assertion that the SOLDIER is more useful to me."
At this point in time. For the work he was doing.
And several other caveats like that.
Re: Introductions!
Well. That got an interested look, right there.
"Is he, now?"
Well. That painted an interesting picture, considering this kid clearly wasn't Zack's Rufus, either.
Re: Introductions!
Even if Zack didn't really know that yet.
"I imagine you'll see," Rufus said, unconcerned.
Re: Introductions!
"I imagine I will," Reno agreed, tilting his head at Rufus, sizing him up.
He knew what he was capable of. Probably better than Rufus himself did, these days.
The idea that he'd have a SOLDIER at his disposal at this point in the game was terrifying in new and interesting ways.
Re: Introductions!
He returned the Turk's look with interest.
It might take awhile, but Rufus was confident he'd find a way to use Reno too.
Re: Introductions!
Well... good luck, kid.
Reno continued staring him down, and then shrugged it off and got back to the lesson.
