After the meeting, both Canadas headed for home. Matt barely managed to keep his temper in check by thinking about how he was going to move all his art supplies and pieces he wanted to keep into the room at Matthew's house. That way if the pathway closed, he wouldn't care. He would also need to bring Kumka, his polar bear, over too. He hoped Kumka would get along will Kuma but he was a short tempered little creature so maybe not. Luckily he spent all his time outdoors expect to sleep and eat and Kuma seemed to stay indoors most of the time so it should be okay.

On his drive home, Matthew spent the entire time thinking about what to do next to understand Matt and his life. He hoped that Matt would stay with him for a while longer since he figured that a three way approach would work, questions, observations of him and observations of his world. He figured that after at least a week of Matt living with him, he might ask him to go over to his world and be shown around. Of course, in the previous week he would show Matt around his world to keep everything even. Though, based on what Matt had said about his world, he did not intend to spend that much time there.

Matthew made it home a while before Matt did since traffic wasn't as bad for him. He walked in and promptly headed towards his lab. Once there, he checked the experiment on dementia to find vast improvement in sample C. After this experiment, he planned to set up another experiment but with all of them receiving the same treatment as C so he could get a scale of percentage. He wouldn't accept anything below a ninety percent success rate before trying it on his precious Kuma.

Next, he wandered over to the machine that ended up opening a pathway. This was the first time since it happened that he had considered where this put him on becoming visible. It was kind of depressing to think about how he was no closer to fixing it. He gave sigh and tried to think. The next course of action might be to look at the chemicals he had used before to try and come up with a new composition that wouldn't have the… interesting effect this one did. Of course, he was going to save this one to do more experiments on it. Like to see if he could figure out why a pathway opened up now and not when he was testing it. Maybe he could give Matt's idea a try.

Matt arrived home finally. He jumped out of his truck and began gathering the supplies he wanted to take over. Once everything was packed, he stepped up to the pathway and noticed Matthew standing nearby, lost in thought. He allowed himself a moment to memorize the sight so he could paint it before stepping through. He debated whether to rouse his Chickadee or to leave him. He really did want to paint him like this, with a look of intense concentration on his face, head cocked to the side and holding a clipboard against his side. It seemed to capture his personality perfectly, cute and brilliant. Matthew didn't seem to be doing anything and he could just sketch a quick outline to make sure everything was right before rousing him.

With a nod, Matt set up his easel and canvas quietly and began sketching the sight, the very slight sound of pencil meeting the paper being the only thing heard. Matthew was trying desperately to think of where to go with his visibility experiment. There must be something he was missing. He could just try to change the chemicals but that didn't seem right. And besides, the machine didn't spray anything at all so there must be something wrong with the design of it. He would need to check it over again but should he look at the blueprints or the inner workings?

It took a while for Matthew to notice the sound and when he did he looked around to find Matt sketching, a look of simple happiness and intense concentration on his face. It was a rather nice sight, to see someone usually so gruff and unhappy to be brought joy by something like drawing. Now the Matthew thought about it, art was the manipulation of light and color which was what he was trying to focus on in his search to undo the effects of invisibility. Matthew wasn't sure about his knowledge of the science behind light and color but he was certain that Matt was an expert on the usage of it.

Matt was putting the finishing touches on his sketch when he noticed Matthew looking at him. He blushed slightly, never having anyone see him draw before. He was also mildly worried that Matthew wouldn't happy for being his unknowing model. Matthew simply stared at him with the same look of concentration on his face as before. Matt shifted around and cleared his throat.

"Hey." He said, somewhat lamely. It was enough to break Matthew out of his concentration.

Matthew blinked at him for a second. "I think I need your help." He blurted out.

Matt blinked in surprise. "How so?"

"Well, in case you haven't noticed I'm mostly invisible. It's from an experiment gone wrong a few years back. Since then, I've been trying to figure out how to undo the effects since the mixture I had made beforehand thinking it would undo the effects didn't work. Since sight is really just your eyes sensing light of different kinds, the invisibility gas infused the cells with chemicals that reflected back the original light, giving the eyes nothing to see. It was luckily only a partial success but now I can't seem to manage undo the effects. Since you're an artist, you are a master with the usage of colors and light so maybe you can help me." Matthew said in a rush. All thoughts of social skills left when he was in scientist mode.

Matt's head spun slightly at the sudden rush of information. He managed to gather that Matthew needed his help to undo the effects of an experiment because he was an artist. Of course, Matt was going to help him but he had this one idea of a painting that he really wanted and goddamn it, he was going to use this to his advantage.

"I'll help you on one condition."

"What is it?" Matthew cocked his head to the side, curious.

"You go on a picnic with me and let me draw it." Matt smirked slightly. He had the sight already pictured in his head but he wanted to see it in real life.

Matthew's face quickly erupted into a bright blush. "W-why do you want to do that?" He asked shyly.

"Because I think it'll be perfect."

Matthew shifted his weight from side to side and thought. He really needed his help and he was sure it would be a good time so why was he hesitating? He had been raised by the nation of love, he should be able to accept a simple date. But was it a date? He kind of wanted it to be but wasn't sure that's what Matt wanted.. Well, if Matt was going to use this to his advantage, so was he.

"Only if it's a date." He said firmly.

Matt blushed brightly but smile broadly. "Of course. Friday sound okay?"

Matthew nodded. Matt packed up his easel and canvas and excused himself to his room to so he could put everything up. Matthew wanted to see his drawings but was too elated by the fact that he was going on a date with Matt to ask. Once he had left, Matthew sighed and shook his head, smiling. He really shouldn't be so happy about going out with him after only knowing him for a day but he couldn't help. To Matthew, Matt was a big grizzly brown bear. He wanted everyone to think he was big and tough but he was really rather gentle and nice if you played your cards right. Matthew was determined to play his cards perfectly and to make the big grizzly his.

Up in his room, Matt was trying to put everything away but found himself too distracted to focus and shaking too bad to do it right. He couldn't believe he was going out with his Chickadee! And it was him the insisted it be a date! He was so elated and nervous that he couldn't hold still and couldn't focus. He considered going back to his world to chop wood but didn't want to disturb Matthew in case he was working. Well, having chopped wood around was never a bad thing so he could cut some wood here.

While he headed out to hunt down an axe and logs to cut, Matthew gave up on getting anything down and came up stairs. Both of them were elated and nervous for this coming Friday. Matt kept thinking about how the lighting would play out on Matthew's face, while Matthew kept thinking about what all to bring to ensure he would be able to make Matt his lover. They both shared one thought. Friday can't come quick enough.
