Matt was fairly confused that the topic was even brought up. It had less to do with Janice and their past and more to do with the fact that they were in lockdown in a quarantine zone.
Interestingly, that topic had never seemed to be breached before this, either. There was the agreement that Matt got to stay with Molly because she needed both of them, of course, and when Mohinder started travelling it had made sense for Matt to stick around. And to then just kind of ... continue doing so. But there hadn't been any discussion about the future. There'd often been that undertone of "for now", the expectation (and reluctance to face it, in a way) that things were going to change at some point.
For Mohinder to more or less say that he was welcome to stick around long-term that way, that was something he wasn't sure how to respond to at all. So he blinked and opened his mouth to say something and then just kind of mutely nodded, still trying to figure out where that had come from, exactly.
And then, uh.
"Wait- what?"
Sorry, Mohinder, you're being way too confusing at the moment.
