[Security? Yes, Rufus-san was an important man; he needed to be looked after. She smiled, politley,] A pleasure to make your acquantiance, Tseng-san.

[He sounded a bit put out about that last. The other man did seem much more enthusiastic. Hestitantly, in way of conversation, Kasumi broached:] Stretching ones legs gives you a good chance to make the rounds, I suppose.

((Oh, well~ Whatever works, works. This is totally fine. <3))

[Reno didn’t think of this as complaining so much as they were simply discussing their problems, surely the redhead gave the President plenty to complain about. The Turk had a problem keeping his own opinions bottle up anyway.]

No, you wouldn't...and I'm sure if he asked you, you'd even kill a Turk...but he wouldn't [takes another sip]. He'll warm up to the idea that Zack is just a buddy and that he's more important. He just needs a reminder every now and then.

[Tseng inclined his head in agreement and gave a nod] I would agree with you, Miss Tendo.

Are you enjoying the party tonight?

[He laughs - he thinks her innocence is cute] Well, if you run into any trouble, just come look for me, I'll ride to your rescue. I'm Zack.

Haha, figures. Wanna bet on how long it takes before the... before Rufus exacts an appropriate punishment? [This version of Zack knows Rufus nearly as well as Tseng does, and he grins as he anticipates possible reactions]

Ah, yes. [Though her reply was hesitant, at best, and her smile is still a bit stiff. She turned to reguard the party, and continued:] Hakuba-san has done a splendid job.

I will be sure to let you know, Zack-san. [He's rather enthusiastic, isn't he. And, as it is her turn to introduce herself, she bowed politely.] My name is Tendou Kasumi. A pleasure to make your acquantiance.

[Tseng doesn't really like to think about what he would do for Rufus, because there isn't really a depravity he can think of that's too low. But the upshot is, Reno is right]

[He takes a sip from his own glass and nods] I hope you're right. I just need to figure out ways to remind him, perhaps.

You think about it too much...Rufus'll come around [sets his galss aside and continues to focus on Tseng's feet] Now we're alone and I may not be up for much at the moment...but what do you say to takin' a break with me?

Nice to meet you, Kasumi! Don't be shy, have fun tonight! Nobody will bite - or the Turks will take care of them, if they do. [He grins again]

[Her smile is a bit more natural now that she has begun to relax.] I will try to, thank you. Certainly it looks...not to be quite so hard.

[Tseng gives Reno a severe look, setting his own glass down] What are you proposing?

[Tseng chuckles faintly] As long as it takes Rufus to catch up with him, I expect.

[His eyes miss little, and he moves to stand beside her, following her gaze] If you don't mind my saying so, you do seem a bit less than enthusiastic, despite your words.

[Brushes off that severe look and slides his hands from Tseng's feet all the way up to his inner thighs] I'm talkin' abou you getting relaxed with me.

[Nnngh, okay, that's bold and hard to ignore. The severe look is flickering. Tseng is a bit ashamed of how easily Reno can manipulate him sometimes]

We're supposed to be working...

"I would like a tour first, I want to know what you do. Besides, it's still too early to have dinner."

[She looks up at him, surprised. Ah- He is an observant man... A smile, and the truth; Kasumi has never been one to lie. Though she does look away as she tells it, regarding the party goers a bit more intently than necessary.] Yes, I. Well, I feel a bit out of place. This party is for Rufus-san, after all; truly, it is quite the grand affair! And, that is, we are simply acquaintances...

"Most of what I do is behind the scenes. Making sure everything is organized and where it's supposed to be," Krad said, but gestured beyond the entrance hall. "But the pieces we have right now are quite lovely," he added and headed further inside.

[Tseng's eyebrows rise] Well, I'm sure it's an opportunity for you to meet new people. No doubt there are others here who feel the same as you - Rufus doesn't make friends easily, but Hakuba's thrown a big party. You're welcome here, Miss Tendo, I assure you.

Hakuba listened whit interest as they walked. "Acting behind the scenes is as important as working int he open, if not more. If you do your job the right way people never notice it, but when something goes wrong they complain. What's your favorite piece?"

Krad chuckled. "Ah, that is always the way of it though, when you work behind everything," he agreed. And he did mean more than just his work here.

"My favorite piece...I haven't really decided. There are many excellent pieces right now."

[Fortunately, Reno has no shame and when he sees Tseng wavering he goes for the other man's crotch, applying his gentle massage.]

I could bend you over the table...you'd still be watching the screen...unless you close your eyes, then you'd have to be punished.

(ooc: arg. sorry for the epic fail these past few days, one of the transformers in our neighborhood blew and it took a while before someone was able to come out and fix it. Admittedly there was a nice light show, but sheesh. Then my family came so I might be a little slow.)

[Tseng shudders at the sensation, reaching out to tangle his fingers in Reno's hair. They tighten, tug his head back slightly.]

[Growl:] I..could bend you over the table. And still watch the screen.

((Oh man, poor thing! D: It's all right, though. I've been pretty fail and I have no such excuse, lol))

I guess if you wanted to...couldn't put up much of a fighgt if I tried but [a soft groan when his head is tugged back, always the hair, isn't it? Ah, but it's pretty nice] you'd have to be really nice t' me.

[Carefully drops to his knees between Tseng's legs, nestling his face against Tseng's stomach] I understand we spent a lotta time together over the past few weeks. Even though I wasn't aware of it...kinda unfair.

(ooc: Lol yeah, it's that time of year. I tend to get a little lax around Christmas time.)
