luckily, this time mathis is freaking out a bit less! that probably has something to do with the fact he has his normal clothes back; a knife is strapped to one thigh, and he's just finishing up as he ties a choker in place around his neck, giving it a little tug to be sure it's secured.
[it's island time. he's wandered through to explore, but right now he's holding still, a little awed as he takes in the nice weather and the sunset, looking out toward the water.]
[ouuugh that one isn't easy. he feels anxious, coming out of it, after seeing all that-- it takes a moment to reorient, for him to start breathing normally again and start trying to calm his heartrate.]
[confidence week with mathis is going to be. such a trip. jesus. also he's dressed more athleisure style this time... thanks geto for helping him with fashion the other week.]
Everything seems like it's more than usual, for some reason-? But I can tolerate that...
[hi. he's in the library, tonight, just chilling here where it's quiet; organizing a few stacks of books, while he's at it. ones he wants to bring back before the week is up.]
[it's easy to steer him somewhere quiet, at least. he isn't responsive to her, doesn't say anything or even seem to think anything... but when she guides him along, he goes. she can take him wherever.]
[ she doesn't want to make him walk far right now, so she just leads him infirmary so that he can sit down somewhere clean. her own thoughts are pretty nonverbal too, mostly just a faint ringing sound. ]
[ ashlyn is still residually annoyed about all that time as a puppy, so mathis can probably feel that under the surface. but whatever, she's here, bumping into him wherever he's at. ]
[ she usually spends more time loitering at the posters, but this time she sees them and is immediately seeking out mathis. she kind of expects to just find him being totally despondent somewhere. ]
[ well. after investigating and turning in their evidence together i suppose ashlyn just assumes they're splitting up and starts to walk off back towards the village.
[ i'm so sorry but he reversed their social link so hard. she is not making any effort to seek him out, so he'll have to find her or bump into her somewhere...
she is probably at the mall getting j*mba j*ice or something conveniently public, though. ]

...much better.]
O-oh, um...

mathis manages a shy little wave.]
