[Mat turns with a friendly grin and dips his head in a little greeting, before setting another glowing flower up into the arcing and curving branches. He's happy with the result. Makes him think of the stories told around the hearth when he was little, at the inn. He'd gather there with Rand and Egwene and Perrin and listen to an old nan or auntie spin stories of adventure and legend and places that likely didn't exist but captivated the imagination anyhow.
And later he'd told those same stories to his sisters, though not around a cheerful hearth.]
Not much stays the same exact shape or size or color for very long. That's what the real world's for. This world? You can change your surroundings like you'd change a set of clothes! It can be different every time and I like it that way. You're welcome to reshape this little bit however you'd like, dominion over everything in this spot is yours, good lady!
[Because that's part of the wonder, too. It's not just Mat that can change and make things, though as it's his domain it's mostly made by him. But he loves letting other people add things, alter things, bringing something new and also a touch of them with it. He's eager to see what Julie brings - aside from her lovely self, which is always appreciated. He'd liked her, when they'd met back at the summit. Though he's easily won over by pretty people who like animals.]
