Mathew was waiting for Olesya to be let out by the doctor. He had heard from a couple of the Dragons that she was getting out today and he intended to be the first one to see her. They had some shit to discuss. And he wanted to do it before she got to far because depending on how poorly things went, he was going to send her right back there.
Which is why he was crouched down on the roof of one of the nearby buildings. Watching the entrance to the Doctors tent. He wasn't going to let her dodge him.

"Now, make sure to keep drinking plenty of fluids. You need to gain a lot of blood back."
"I know-"
"And get plenty of rest."
"I know-"
"And don't you dare use that arm until-"
"I KNOW! ....Uh, thank you."
Olesya said sheepishly, adjusting her arm in the sling as she walked out the door and into the street. David's doctor had kept her for a day or two until her strength was back up to the point where she was independent again. Her shoulder was bandaged up good, but the sling kept her from moving it too much so the tissue could heal.

He let her walk away from the tent before he hoped down, landing in front of her and causing the ground to tremble under his feet. Rising up he crossed his arms and stared at her. A frown etched deep in to his face.
"So I met Maddie. Quite a kid."
His tone was sharp and stern. He was still mad at her.

Olesya reacted instantly at someone dropping down in front of her. She stopped in her tracks and her feet slid shoulder length apart, her left arm came up in front of her in a blocking positing and her right arm....twiched slightly and she visibly cringed. Her shoulder was still tender.
"Jesus, Mathew, scared the shit right out of me."
She snapped, her voice just as sharp. Clearly he was still angry with her, if the crossed arms, expression, and ground rumbling weren't an obvious enough clue.

"Good, you should be more scared."
He spat out instantly. He took a step forward, his eyes sweeping over her defensive position. She did not want to bait him in to fighting right now. It wouldn't be like last time, he wouldn't be gentle.
"You wanna tell me what the fuck was going through that empty little mind of yours?"
Because shit, he never pegged her for an idiot. He didn't like being proven wrong in general. But this was worse than that, this felt personal. Even if it wasn't for him.

Olesya gritted her teeth as he bared down on her. She straightened her back, not moving into a fighting position but not backing down either. Seriously, he was going to lay in on her now too? Wasn't her fight with David enough?! She hadn't seen much of anyone while she was resting in the pseudo-hospital, and the first thing she sees when she gets out is this?!
"You gotta be kidding me..."
She sighed, taking a step back so she could walk around him.
"Just leave me alone, okay?"

He shot down low to do a sweep kick and knock her off her feet. He wasn't done. He wanted to make damn sure she didn't risk that kid again. She was way to sweet to die because Olesya didn't have common sense.
"No, we are going to talk. We can do this nicely, or I can make it so you can't walk away. Your choice."

Mathew swept Olesya off her feet...in the most unromantic way possible. She fell to the ground, catching herself with her left hand so she wouldn't further injure her shoulder. Her body still hurt all over from the beatings the thugs and David had given her.
Sighing in a resigned fashion, she straightened up so she was sitting with her knees bent and her left arm resting on her knees, and right arm pinned to her side in its sling. Her gaze a staying at her knees, she didn't want to look at him.
"Fine. Talk."
This couldn't get over soon enough.

Good, she was going to be reasonable. That was a point in her favor in his mind as he picked himself up and glared down at her.
"Like I said, she is quite a kid, and I don't know if you realize what a giant idiot you were to take her across gang territory at night. By yourself. Why didn't the crows send someone with you? Why didn't you reach out to me through the Dragons OR the Gods? You have fucking options."
He threw his hands up in to the air.
"Do you know how fucking lucky you are that I was nearby? I told you those symbols would only grant you access. They are not transferable, it doesn't work that way."

Les sighed, resting her elbow on her knee and putting her face in her hands.This was torture, she already felt completely horrible about the entire thing, and neither Mathew nor David were going to let her live it down. She had half the mind to just tell them all to fuck off and leave. She didn't need anybody. She held her own well enough! ...Olesya took a deep breath to calm her mind. It wouldn't do to lost her head now, not when thing s had finally become okay.
But they're not okay, are they? They don't trust you.
Shut up.
They're going to take Maddie away and never talk to you again.
No...
They hate you.
I SAID shut up!
Olesya gritted her teeth, fighting herself in her mind. She was shaking slightly, trying hard to keep her breathing even. She closed her mismatched eyes, gripping her forehead with the palm of her hand.
"I know, okay? I already feel like shit about it, there's no need to rub it in any more."

"Good. Because it's not about you being strong or weak. It's not about pride and asking for help. Because if you are going to take care of a child you need to grow up and remember it's about her. Not you and your issues."
He was still frowning be he offered her a hand up as his other hand reached in to his pocket and pulled out a small tear drop.
"Here, eat this. It will fix you right up. I'm not a cheap asshole and I don't want her to see you all beat up and worry herself. Poor kid has been through enough."
Those things were hard to get in this world. But he considered this worth it.
OOC: if she takes it -1 candy tear from my inventory.
