Did the guy EVER STOP WORKING? It was the night before his flipping wedding and HE WAS AT THE DAMN DESK WORK AGAIN. Or at least, Buck assumed since he knew the guy was in his house and that he was currently no where to be found. Good, it gave time for Buck to think. He's planned his older brothers stag party years and years ago. It hadn't been hard, how hard could this one be? Buck had sent, albeit nervously, a letter to the fertility goddesses (which luckily he'd accidentally stumbled into their ....party- early that week) to ask their help in getting the necessary gentlemen to the stag party as well as bringing themselves and some entertainment. God the amount of blood cells he'd burnt in his cheeks while doing so. Now to get Mathew to the location. This is where he needed help. He'd set up the party location at the temple of Dionysus where they had set up lounge couches, a giant pool, and in the middle of that pool? A giant fighting rink. There was fire pits every where, food- and even some card tables as well as a sign posted at the door. The sign bore the message Rules:
No Shoes, No Shirts, and we'll have no problems. But that was at the location. Mathew was in his house, and the location was a good five miles away at least-......Buck had told the ladies to get the men and to wait till Buck could lure out Mathew. So here it went. Buck knocked on the room Mathew was in and peeked his head in. "Um Mathew..may I have a word?" |

Yeah, it was the day before the wedding and he was still busy as sin. Not only did he had to make a bunch of stuff for the wedding himself to ensure it was something that Bastille would like. But he was the one that saw to making sure they would have food, liquor, entertainment, flowers, and almost everything else that would be at the party and ceremony tomorrow. But that wasn't enough, oh no. Barker was going to be there, which meant that tension was going to be high and he would have to convince people it was not in the strategic best interest of the war effort to kill him on the spot.
It might be, but it would kind of ruin the wedding. Besides, he had plans for Barker. And those plans needed him to live for a while longer. Thus the no war zone rule for the wedding.
When Buck poked his head in to the room Mathew was sitting at a desk with papers and maps scattered across the desk and room. Leon was blind and couldn't do this, David was out doing his own stuff. Bastille didn't even do her job, Olesya was hit or miss. So that meant it all fell on Mathew. Scout reports, supply reports, requisition forms, troop placements, incident reports. It was enough to give him a migraine.
"Yes Buck?"
He asked as he pinched the bridge of his nose and turned to face his soon to be Brother in Law. No effort in forcing a smile, he was busy and a little cranky.

"Tomorrows the wedding....and....I hate to ask this, you're so busy. But...I haven't....asked Maria out. yet. I know where she is ...and well, I guess,....what I'm saying is...."
He bit is back and just let it out.
"Would you mind terribly taking no more than an hour to help me...?"
Buck hoped to god this worked. At least his acting was ace- he knew he had a theatrical career lined up if the world didnt end first.

He frowned and let out a small sigh before nodding. He did promise Buck that he would help him with Maria. Even if she was super creepy. Like, really creepy.
"Yeah, sure thing Bro."
He said and spent a minute tidying his desk up before standing up and following Buck!
"So where is she?"

Buck sighed a big sigh of relief. He nodded and stood up straighter, using his cane to almost bounce. But the nerves never left his face. Although, probably not for the Maria thing as much as they were for him getting found out.
"She went temple touring....One of the fertility goddesses was kind enough to tell me she was at Dionysus' right now..." He said, his laughter nervous- and the blush on his face only getting redder.

Mathew laughed, the idea of Buck dealing with the fertility Goddesses was amusing to say the least. Poor guy probably almost fainted when talking to them. It was kind of cute really. Mathew gave him a pat on the back, totally suspecting nothing.
"Alright, let's go woo you a super creepy girl."

"She is not super creepy!" He depended under his breathe and wobbled after him. This walking thing was still difficult. He lead Mathew towards the car he'd been using around town- which was parked in its usual spot as if he'd been expecting Mathew to refuse.
He got in and blinked.
"do you know where that temple is?" as if he didn't already know....

"She totally is." And Mathew totally heard him mutter it under his breath. "But that's fine, different strokes for different folks. No judgement.
"Yeah, it's about five miles to the North East or so."
Mathew gave Buck directions!

Buck just smirked and nodded, heading over. They would arrive within about 5 minutes and Buck would get out. He would saunter quietly over to the opening of the temple and then heard voices. He looked around.
"Something is going on......" He said and curiously wobbled his way on over towards the noise and bright fire light. If Mathew would follow he would walk around the side of the temple towards the back were giant pyres would greet him as they walked into an open area with the large pool and the fighting arena in the middle. Around the pool were lounges and above them all- only by a slight raised platform would be a comfy green blanketed couch, all to Mathew so he could view it all.
He would also see the sign in front of him-
"No Shoes, No Shirt, And We'll have no Problems"

"Well that's kind of normal for this temple."
He said with a shrug. It was always a party with Dionysus, that was kind of his thing. He followed Buck around the back of the temple, a bit surprised at what he saw. Not because there was a pool and all of that stuff. But the raised platform and green blanketed couch. That was new, and Green was his color. The sign as well. He pursed his lips before glancing back at Buck.
"You cheeky bastard."
He punched Buck in the shoulder before sliding his jacket off and then taking off his shirt, slinging both items over his left shoulder. He never wore shoes so that was not a problem.
"We heading in then Buck?"
Because Mathew totally was.

"Glad you approve....or at least, I hope you do. There was no way to get you away from that desk was there"
Buck just smiled- no exactly keen on following his own rule. He'll sit at the chair conveniently placed by the sign and smile innocently. The people already present were merrily drinking and eating the fruit from the platters. Two men were already fighting in the water. On the couch would be a small trey of chocolate covered strawberries and a note with a lion insignia ....
It read;
'Mathew,
Enjoy yourself, before I make your life a miserable existence that puts hell to shame. Enjoy these strawberries, I made them myself- yes even the chocolate dip. I better see you recovering from a hang over tomorrow, or else I'll have no fun at all. All my love,
Sincerely,
Bastille.
p.s. I mean it, that sincerely bit.'

Leon would arrive with a walking stick he had learned to use it to judge steps and the like. Sensing someone at the desk he asked and found out the sign, so he kicked off his boots and his shirt decidedly to relax and drink merrily.
Dionysus would also be there entertaining and sending his leading ladies and nymphs to play with some of the guests. Nothing overly done, just some music and dancing. They where good at making men feel like they where important.
The one oddity would be a small green ball that would bounce aganst the front desk and into the area...

Rai would be next to show up upon reaching the desk and seeing the sign Rai would take off his shirt and shoes. While taking off his shoes he would find a random little green ball, which he would pick up investigate and then put in his pocket. Why the hell not? Then he walked right inside to join the party.

Mathew made his way to his chair with a grin on his face. He did like having things done for him, and having a place of honor, well it was just nice to be appreciated, he would just leave it at that. First thing he did when he sat down was toss the coat to the side, though he leaned over to it a moment later and fetched a pad of paper and a pen from it. There was still one important thing he needed to get done tonight. Just in case tomorrow backfired.
But he could mix work and pleasure surely! Eat, drink, and be merry for tomorrow he could very well die. All of them could if he miscalculated. Though that was of course unlikely. Popping one of the Strawberries into his mouth he would then open the letter, letting out a small snort of a laugh as he finished. She wanted him to enjoy himself before she made his life miserable. Well, she could try.
Leaning back on the couch Mathew began to write.

Meanwhile Buck sat rather patiently at thee entrance- being on guard duty so that he did not have to remove his shirt or his shoes. He could plan parties, but he rarely enjoyed the fruit of his own labor.
