XR sighs as he lays on Nos´ lap as they were watching a horror and comedy film about two guys named Tucker and Dale going in a cabin filled with traps and spiralling into a horror parody but it seemed pretty good so far.

"So what's on your mind?" XR looks to his fiance who was massaging his back.

"I was thinking about the invitations. There is one left you have yet to give, luv."

XR freezes and looks down. "Hey look gore." He pointed out but Nos was unamused.

"Maybe you should invite him, he is your father, XR."

"Nos, babe, you know and I know that that´s the last thing I´d do. He was going to shoot you and you think inviting him will change his mind? I'd rather not go and invite him, that way he won't turn our union into some kind of ploy to arrest you."

"I know that but deep down you want him to come. I wish all of our friends could come but they cannot. I want you to be happy and if it means having your pops there, so let it be." Nos holds him close.

XR crosses his arms. "I bet he won't come."

"Then let us make it into a bet, you enjoy making bets."

XR sits up. "If he won´t come, I want…" XR blushes deeply. "I want to pick the adoption."

Nos sits up. "If he does, I choose the guardianship."

XR nods. "Fair deal. Well, since we are not actually watching the film, can we connect? I've been really wanting to do that for a long while and we have a week from now before we do that whole „not doing any mating" as you like to call it. Not to mention I'm going to invite a really overstressed, angry, ready to pop Commander. I like to tone down if you catch my drift."

Nos purrs and allows his panel to open along with his…..

The next day.

Nebula was enraged. He knew the energy vampire was pure evil.

"All this time I was right!" He shouted. He knew it and now XR was going to marry that monster!

Which was why he´d called XR in at that exact moment.

He waited as XR came in wearily.

"You called, Commander?" XR asked.

Nebula felt a sting, he knew it was gonna take time to get XR to forgive him.

'But things will change for the better.' he thought.

"XR I have something important to tell you."

"Let me guess another scan on me? See if I'm being possessed again?"

Nebula shook his head. "Listen XR I want to say-"

"Actually I got something to say." XR stopped him.

Nebula was quiet. "Fine but the second you´re finished, you won´t interrupt me again."

"Fair enough." XR nodded. "I wanted to ask you if you´d come to our union?"

Nebula was quiet. "..."

XR had to take a moment. "I knew this was a bad idea. I told Nos you wouldn't accept us."

Nebula was startled.

"You know what it's an open invitation for you. You can either come or do a no-show." XR made his leave but stoppped. "What did you want to tell me that's so important?"

Nebula took a deep breath. "... I was gonna say… I'm giving you the week off and that starts two days before your wedding. I want you back asap." Nebula stated.

XR was quiet but only nodded and left.

Nebula groaned and decided to call the only person who didn´t hate him at the moment.

"XL report to my office."

Nebula drummed his fingers on the table as he waited (im)patiently.

"You called me pops?" XL entered the office but saw the turmoil in the old man.

"You know I would think of bringing an umbrella for the storm you´re brewing."

"What took you so long?!" Nebula glared.

XL was quiet. "I was being troop leader for the space cadets remember?"

Nebula felt a bucket of cold ice hit him.

"Right, sorry about that." Nebula massaged his head. "I just have been given an invita-"

"To their wedding, right? Guess its getting better, right?" XL smiled but Nebula wasn't. Not at all happy. "What's so bad about that?"

"I was gonna start world war with him but I backed off."

"That's bad…?" XL was confused now.

"I was gonna tell XR I have proof to throw Nos in PC-7! I was gonna get rid of that vampire!" Nebula slammed a fist on his desk. "But XR said that he knew that it´d be a bad idea to ask me. Nos insisted on inviting me!"

"Pops it wasn't like some trap-"

"But here I am trying to put that energy vampire in a cell in PC-7!" Nebula glared. "I don't trust him XL. If I´d go there I´d show them that I accept their union."

"But if you don't pops, you´re only gonna make XR exclude you from his life. Look, you may not believe it but Nos wants us there."

"You believe that oversized parasite!?"

"He told me XR wished he could have all of his friends there but he can't with Warp taken as a prisoner on Planet Z, Mira maybe or maybe not coming because of her pregnancy and with the fear Zurg has been sending out spies or something because of some stalker. And the once best man Booster is being in that nightmare season." XL shuddered in fear. "Buzz may or may not be able to come with Zurg making plans and if Buzz doesn't show, Zurg's gonna find out."

"Doesn't that monster have any friends?"

XL frowned. "Nos told me he can't contact Gravitina and his father figure is on some four-year trip. Nos has nobody to show up and to him it would already be enough seeing us there since he knows that it´ll make XR happy. Won´t you come, pops?"

Nebula crossed his arms. "Go to that excuse of a wedding then! See if I care!"

XL frowned and walked away but hoped Nebula would change his mind.
