Maybe Matt's just paranoid, but there's something ... sort of ... off ... about this guy. And he doesn't mean the purple hair.
After all, it's a free multiverse. We make our own tonsorial choices.
For now: one witch-slash-maybe-mage-slash-maybe-wizard is keeping half an eye on Xelloss, as he makes absent notes on a piece of paper about herb combinations and incantations and what kind of candle to light.
Kind of off, yeah. Matt usually follows his gut when it comes to stuff like this, even when he's distracted with the issue of how to handle his incorporeal and property-destroying housemates.
Even if the guy's evil or preternatural or whatever, there's no call to be impolite. Matt jabs his pen down towards his paper, indicatively. "I'm trying to figure something out. I think my brain's rebelling."
"The end of the Universe. Of every Universe, in fact. Something I always hoped I'd get the chance to see, myself. Amazing, isn't it? We can come here and watch it over and over again, at any time! And so many people will never know..."
Matt watches a star implode-- or at least, that's what he assumes it is. It looks to him sort of like what would happen if you tried to smother a lava lamp.
"Yeah," he says curiously.
"They never will."
This kind of knowledge feels like a physical object he can carry with him.
"Maybe I'm culture-bound," Matt says, still smiling-- and maybe he should be more creeped out by the laughter, but it sounds pretty innocuous. "But I can't think of anybody else who'd ask how something made me feel."

"Hello! Is there something on my face?"
Perfectly harmless, him! Really. Don't trust the evil vibes. They're probably coming from... something else.
Yeah.

"Huh?" he says.
A sheepish grin.
"Uhhh. No. Sorry, was I--"

Smiiiiile? Nothing more than a little polite inquisition here.

"Outside like there?"
He is always a fan of study breaks.
