[congratulations you get slightly less panicky mathis today
this is probably because he's back in his usual outfit, including the knife strapped to his thigh and the choker around his neck; he feels a bit more secure with them there, though he's definitely still soft-spoken, hesitant as he gives lavi a little nod in greeting.]
M-monsieur-? [oops he didn't get his name except off those parchments and maybe he shouldn't just say it-- so he doesn't.] Did you... find anything of yours too?

You can just call me Lavi if you want! I'm only a year older than ya.
[don't MONSIEUR HIM unless you really want to like lucas. at the question, he turns on the spot, as if to show off red and black uniform, along with his scarf and non-flower eyepatch]
Got my clothes and my hammer back. [he's not holding a hammer?] What about you?

Yes, I... f-found my clothes, too.
[he doesn't need to mention the knife, it's not like it's hidden.]
You were... reading those papers, weren't you-?
[or so he assumes, if he actually knows mathis's age. nobody actually guesses it accurately.]

[mathis like i always get assigned ten years old]
Yeah! It's the only exciting piece of readin' to do around here.
[besides the demonic BIBLE]
It would have been nice if we got kidnapped to a place that had real books, huh?

It would have been... I-I'd have liked to be able to read about... wherever we might be.
[hopefully learn something about it.]
B-but I couldn't work out the language in that book in the church...

Right -- you're good with languages.
[he looks over at Mathis, curious]
I couldn't figure it out either, but a bunch of people told me to put it back. Guess they're freaked out just by how it looks.

I wonder why... i-it does look strange, but it's not scary by itself...
Some people fear the unknown, I guess. Not that's a bad thing. Being cautious means keeping safe.
Th-that's true... but we aren't going to... find anything out like that.
That's why you gotta have a buddy! If we work together, then we can watch out for each other too, right?
I-I just... didn't expect...
[they just met and lavi wants to work together?? wow...]
Um, y-yes-!
[they just met and lavi wants to work together?? wow...]
Um, y-yes-!
[Lavi will now DIE for you]
Great! [he holds out his hand!!!!] Looking forward to it, Mattie.
[MATTIE?]
Great! [he holds out his hand!!!!] Looking forward to it, Mattie.
[MATTIE?]
M...Mattie?
[he blinks at him...
then belatedly reaches out to accept that hand. he feels like he runs pretty cool to the touch.]

[WOAH what possible reason could there be for these cold hands
Lavi shakes his hand!!]
I can call you Mathis instead, all proper-like. Just thought Mattie sounded cute.

No, i-it's all right...!
[he hurriedly shakes his head.]
I haven't had anyone... nickname me before.
[he hurriedly shakes his head.]
I haven't had anyone... nickname me before.
M' glad to be your first then.
[why is he phrasing it that way]

[lavi will wander on into the church because he's nosy]
Hey, Mattie.
[he's mostly covered up, so there's no skin showing but luckily(?) for him, a number is printed on his chest.... and loops around his body because it's an insanely high number? well into the thousands and beyond. it's fine.]
Are the pews comfy?

Hehe... I wasn't expecting a-anything like that, here.

[he shrinks away a little, hurriedly wrapping a blanket around himself to try to cover the words on him.
it's only going to work temporarily but he doesn't know that]
U-um, they're... they're not very comfortable, but I can still sleep here...

[imagine i said lavi yanks the blanket off of him.... fortunately he is very sympathetic to everyone who wants privacy even though HE'S NOT GETTING ANY... damn]
That's good. The house feels even more cramped with all of us in there... And it keeps making weird groaning sounds....

[so is lavi..... he's very innocent]
We're pretty friendly for a group of strangers, huh? Well, some of us at least.

It does...?
[bad!! very bad. the thought of it makes him shudder.]
A-at least it's quiet, in here. I'm not very used to... sleeping around this many people though.

Anyone got a funny sleep habit?

Like Cloud sleep walking, or Lucas grinding his teeth...
