Don't let it get to you, Matty! He'd do the same for anyone else in this place!
Following the glow-in-the-dark paint through the darkness is easy, and if he really had to, he could spark a light in the night and let it carry them forth. But, while he's pretty sure that the estate is aware of what he's capable of, not everyone else is; keeping a few things under wraps for the moment might be wise. Making himself seem harmless — or as harmless as he can appear, what with all his scarred glory and tall-dark-wolfish vibes looming around the estate — could pay off. It lets him observe, keep tabs. Do his job. And hey, if this is anything like anything: everyone's life could depend on it.
"Eh, that's fine. You looked a little cold, getting you into a warm spot and polishing you up might be some good foreplay for a conversation like this," he drawls it, lazy and casual. Whomever his neighbor is, he hasn't met them. If there's even anyone in the room next to his to begin with, he might have lucked out for the moment! Being lead to Matt's room means stepping into the soft lights of the manor house, though, and all Dresden's dangerous angles stick out like he's a wolf come to prowl for a victim.
" — sooo," except, he's a good guy in this. A real bona fide gentleman with a motormouth, is all, and he falls into line alongside Matt, with his hands stuffed into the pockets of his Rugrats board shorts. Fucking weirdo. "What do you think about magic, hm?"
