Matt notes he says could go into stuff like that, rather than voicing a firm suspicion there is something in it. Still: "It's not a bad thing to keep in mind, unfortunately. There actually was something psychedelic in the ... well, there was this party where they handed out rainbow lipstick." In the mirror, Matt's eyebrows arch for scandal. "Just like your parents warned you about. Seemed like they produced altered mood, weird urges, sometimes hallucinations."
The easy set of his shoulders goes a little tense on that last part. For a moment, Matt focuses on cleaning up. Scrubbing soap into the paint-covered spots, washing with a damp hand towel. He smiles a bit when Harry says squeaky clean, and by the time he reaches the end of the thought, Matt's turned to face him. Half-sitting on the vanity, the mirror catching that stern ward on his back.
"Sorry to hear that." Matt's expression is softer now, warm with fellow-feeling. He tries to catch Harry's eye. "It's been a long time for me too."
