welcomes him back with a hug, and wishes him a belated birthday~

*happy belated ))

(( HOW WAS EUROPE? ))

happily thanks her! ((IT WAS AMAZING YO OMG~~~))

groans. "Dammit, I liked it better when you were gone."

isn't going to talk to him, but he sends him a late birthday gift anyway.

Cuba should shut up, and wonders why Mattie wont talk to him!!! ;A; He is thankful for the gift though~

mad at him. He'll never tell him that to his face though.

waaaaas going to wish him a belated happy birthday, but since Mattie's not talking to him, he can't. >A>

... is... is fine with that.

can't think of anything he's done wrong to make Mattie mad.....

to tell him something... but doesn't want too... so he's trying to avoid having to tell him.

listen! He swears he'll pay attention this time if Mattie'll talk to him!

doesn't think he will.

will!!! He promises!

sits down on the floor and frowns.

sits down in front of him, whining. "Come on Mattie! Pleeeeeeeeeeeease talk to me?"

stares at him for a moment before he holds the hand with the ring on it out to him.

looks at it and just stares for a while. "I don't get it bro... Is this some kinda mind puzzle thing?" Tilts his head slightly.

sighs and shakes his head. "Francis and I are getting married."

snaps, the lightbulb finally turning on. "Oh! Yeah! I was about to say that!" Pauses then. "Wait, really? *Francis* proposed to you?"

shakes his head again as he puts his hands in his lap and stares at the ring. "N-No... I proposed to him."

grins then. "Oho~ Way to take charge, bro~!"

blushes and continues to stare at the ring. "Do you like the hat?"

"The hat?" looks a bit confused...

nods. "You're birthday gift. I got you a hat. Just a cowboy hat."

brightens at this, and reaches to grab said hat, putting it on and striking a pose. "It's awesome, Matt! How do I look?"

holds back a laugh as he grins. "Y-You look... like a gay cowboy."

only grins wider, and winks at his brother while licking his lips. "An awesomely sexy one!"

lets out his laughter as he nods. "I'm guessing Arthur would agree with you on that."

finally releases the pose, laughing along with Mattie. "Yep! He doesn't like to admit it, but he loves my southern accent~!"

smiles and nods. "I'm sure... he would have to take the bad with the good."

"Pffft, what bad?"

points at him and gestures to all of him. "I think you mean 'what good'?"

gawks at him. "That's mean, Mattie! I'm a hero! I'm almost completely good!!!"

shakes his head a bit before he shuffles closer and pats him on the shoulder. "I'm sorry... couldn't help it."

pouts and pokes him in the arm, forgetting his strength for a moment. "You're so mean to me bro!"

winces and rubs at his arm. "I'm sorry..." He looks down as he sits back again.

doesn't take too long before he grins again and forgives him. "So did you set terms for Francis since y'all are getting married? Like, no_

sexing up random strangers at the bar?"

looks a little confused at the question before he gently shakes his head. "I... No. We didn't."

raises an eyebrow at this. "Really? But I mean, he's *Francis*! He's gotta have *some* boundaries!"

stares at him a little worried now. "D-Do you think he would do that? I mean you don't think he would do you?"
