To be honest...I just don't think I have those feelings. At all.
[It's not something Mat talks about much, he rarely has occasion to. He's yet to be approached by a partner wanting more than what he offers, or had anyone wonder at his interests being purely casual. But it's nothing he's ashamed of.]
Never had the slightest hint of any romantic interest, never dreamed of romance, when I think of my life in the future that's never something I think about. But I'm young yet, who knows! I may grow into romance once day. And I am....not sure. Suppose it depends on if you believe in souls or not.
[It seems a perfectly normal thing to contemplate to Mat. Light knows he and Jesper have voiced - and tested - many questions about aspects of sex in the Horizon. And it's a good question, he's sure philosophers would trip over themselves to debate it.
But he is not a philosopher.]
I do know that for fellows, up here, we haven't got to wait between rounds if we don't want! Very handy, that.
[And then it is very clear that he missed the mark entirely on the narwhal. But at least Julie is amused! Making someone laugh is, in Mat's opinion, one of the most important things you can do for another person. He's piss and balls at actual comfort, but he can make people laugh.
Quite a bit, in this case, and he grins in his own amusement.]
It's a mammal....but in water...and it's got a horn! I don't know many animals that spend time in water, but bears do. And perhaps...make him a friend? I am rather fond of the bizarre beast. And I can ride him! Right in the water!
