duel_wielding in thechurbymuseboxThis was perhaps the stupidest plan that had ever been created, but dammit, it was a solution. After all, there was no chance that North was going to let South win this one. Because the thing was she was right. North had been striking out for a while. Months. He lived on a military ship and there were hundreds of crew and North hadn't had a behind closed doors 'encounter' in more than a year. And it wasn't just because shore leave wasn't the most regular.
But the bet had been made during one of the regular PFL poker games. South had observed that North had lost all of his game. North had said he did better than she did. One thing led to another and now North had another week to make sure he had a date that he could have proof of before he was South's bitch for a month.
So no, he didn't want that. Which was why that he, now that he had a week of shore leave to recover from an injury, he was trying to solve things. Which had started with a personal ad online.
One that was now having him waiting to meet up with someone in an all night cafe. There needed to be talk before things were agreed to. Maybe the guy would be agreeable to it too. But he didn't want to go and buy a guy a dinner if he was going to be weird about 'I'm a space marine and I need to win a bet against my sister'. Because North had better things to do than deal with someone being weird. Like sleeping.
