"Oh- I'm so sorry for butchering your name!" Matthew said quickly, the flush on his cheeks flaming even brighter as he turned towards the- Oh she's pretty- His eyes widened just the slightest bit as the stray thought passed through his mind and he cursed internally, chiding himself and attempting a weak smile of his own. He extended his hand out awkwardly, rubbing the back of his neck with his other hand and forcing out a laugh.

Brilliant. Embarrass yourself in front of a potential friend- Just great Matt."Please... forgive me, really," he said much more softly, letting out a soft breath and trying to mentally calm himself down. He didn't know why he was so flustered, if it had been the horror game he'd played with Alfred last night for some... strange unknown reason, or if it was due to forcing himself into a second outing for socialisation in two days. "That was rude of me... I'm just a little tired and... flustered I guess today. I didn't get much sleep last night ( ... )

For as groggy as Matthew was, everything seemed to almost go in a blur, first Veata was bowing- and then shaking his hand and talking about... Oh he felt like he was going to pass out right there, smiling sheepishly as she chided him on sleeping. That was cute- she was cute... And then ( ... )

"I hope he does- And please... Just call me Matthew, or... Matt even!" Matthew said with a light, tired smile again. He followed after Veata with no protest, glancing back at the dog and curiously wondering if Chann would get along well with Kuma. There wasn't anything really... To get along with, because the large white dog didn't do much more than sleep and play the occasional game of 'feed me' but maybe a playmate could fix that ( ... )

Before Matthew answered, he was already digging quickly into his bag, withdrawing a small bottle of 100% pure Canadian maple syrup. He tipped it over, emptying a healthy amount of the sweet syrup into the coffee as he stirred it, adding in a healthy amount of sugar and cream after it. "Oh, of course-!" he laughed weakly, feeling a bit silly that he didn't even tell Veata why he was writing about such a topic ( ... )

Matthew listened to her with an absolute reverence, his love for a good discussion and talk limitless, even if he didn't completely agree with the other party. Every opinion had valid points and most of the time it did no harm to listen to them, after all, you could always be wrong. To just deny vehemently against legitimate proof was ridiculous. "I think you are right but... Well humans are prone to error. Just because they've had children doesn't mean they're going to be right all the time, even with their own spawn," he sighed quietly, rubbing the back of his neck ( ... )

Fffffu- Matthew's staring at Veata utterly captured now. canadien_please May 3 2011, 18:55:28 UTC
The way Veata spoke, the subtle confidence, the slight nervousness- every range of emotion seemed to be hidden just barely behind a well built up mask. And he was grateful he was able to read the most subtle body language easily however... It seemed almost different with her. The familiarity of her home seemed to almost make her sick but she was... nothing less than confident. She wanted him to understand and as difficult as it was, as taboo as it seemed to him, he nodded slightly, taking a long while to gather up his words.

"It just... makes me sad," he murmured quietly, eyes blinking quickly to hold back the building warmth there. It was silly to cry so easily over something- but the hardship of other people always made him ache. It wasn't right that he got more, that he had an easy life while other people were struggling just to get enough food to eat. "I... think I understand a little bit. I just- I can't accept sacrificing one for the good of the others... I-It's just not right. To have me o-or my... brother even sold off- I ( ... )
