It's the way that Matt lights up when he starts TL;DRing Little Chicago, that helps solidify his desire. Yes, he wants to put in the time to quick-build a small environment. Yes, he can use the things he learned while building Little Chicago to expedite the process. It won't take him months and months, not with skilled hands and an enthusiastic partner involved in the process, but it's also not a scale model of a living, breathing city — it's a manor house, and the grounds. Hopefully as far as he and Matt can reach, before the urge to return forces them back to center.
His own eyes glance off Matt's, and for a brief moment, there's a sensation like a violent hook behind the navel for him ( probably for Matt, too ). Like a connection's simmering there, waiting to be forged and locked in for as long as it takes for them to pour over one another's entire soul. The most integral parts of "who" and "why" wait to be seen, and Harry's not entirely willing to bare that all to a guy on the first meeting. Not when his reasons for building the thing are definitely suspect.
With Matt's agreeing, all bright-eyed and eager, Harry reaches out to softly ruffle the side of his dark, damp head: "Cool. It'll be the first time I've tag-teamed on something like this, so bear with me. I got control issues," he half-warns, half laughs, "If we can get a blueprint, that'd be great. If not, we gotta' do the math manually alongside getting as much material from the grounds and house to connect the model to it. You got some time later to poke around the library and see what they got?"
