Hey you two. I know you're in honeymoon bliss but do you think we could tempt you two out to Feed day after tomorrow? Chuck and I want to tie the knot sooner rather than later and it would mean the world to have you there.

I want you to be my best man. If you would. No bachelor party needed.

[ It does take Mako a little while to check his phone.

He's hungover, for one, and also he and Wu have been in bed for most of the day and that's the way he prefers it, frankly. There's a new closeness they have to settle into, exactly the honeymoon bliss Raleigh referenced.

However, at one point he does break to check his Omni, mostly because Wu does first and yelled about it. Mako wasn't, somehow, expecting a message of his own. ]

[ But there it is, clear as day.

No wonder Wu was yelling. Mako's grinning before he can help himself, sitting down heavy on the edge of their bed with a stupid smile on his face. ]

You don't even have to ask. We'd be honored to be there.

There something special a best man does that isn't a party that I should do?

[righthemisphere]

[Traditionally? Yes. But this isn’t a traditional western wedding.

You two are more impactful than you realise.

Besides, he wouldn’t be so cruel as to make Mako deliver a speech.]

Stand by my side and witness. Help me if I’m about to screw it up?

[arclightning]

Slam your hand onto Chuck's face at the right moment.

Got it.

I'm really happy for you, Raleigh. This is good for you. Both of you.

[righthemisphere]

Yeah you’ve got it man that’s exactly what I need you to do.

For real though man, thanks. This feels good. It feels right.

Never thought I’d see the day.

[arclightning]

I'd ask why not, but I think I know the answer.

It suits you two. You're kind of married anyway. Wu told me how it happened. He... keeps doing this. You know you guys aren't even the only ones he accidentally messed with at the wedding?

[righthemisphere]

I believe it.

Who else did he get?

[arclightning]

Childe and his girlfriend, and there was a whole dramatic thing with Ryan and his

uh

friend. Maybe-boyfriend. I don't know, Wu explained it three times and I still don't really get what their deal is. Either way. He's a menace. At least it worked out well for you two.

[righthemisphere]

Wow. He is a menace.

He should start a match making side hustle. In fact I think I'll call him right now and encourage him to do that. Wouldn't you love that? Your place full of lonely singles? I think that's perfect for you.

[arclightning]

Raleigh

[arclightning]

You're getting married and I'm happy for you but if you try that you're dead to me

[righthemisphere]

[ehuehuehuehue]

I’ll keep that in mind.
