He drummed his fingers on the table briefly and then nodded. "Yeah. Yeah, I'll keep an eye out. It's been all over the news, just FYI", he added. "They'll probably manage a story or two if it happens again before they're shut down."
He was silent for a moment longer, and then probably unexpectedly gave a short laugh, that voiceless kind that spoke of some level of incredulousness along with whatever humor there was to find.
"No, you know what, I'm not doing this. We're not talking about the apocalypse right now. We're talking about something else. Hey, how psyched are you about that interview, huh?"
It was a small rush of words, but they were genuine. He didn't like the heavy atmosphere the memories of Odessa gave both of them, didn't like the what-if even if he knew he'd have to consider it sooner rather than later, didn't like to see that troubled look on Mohinder's face. Would much sooner like to see him smile and talk about something that brought some life to his eyes.
Because ... yeah - Matt hadn't quite managed to stop thinking about him. He'd keep that fact close to his chest for now until he figured out what he wanted to do about it, or what they wanted to do about it, or how it'd be, or whatever, but he'd figured that there was something about Mohinder he really, really liked, and part of that was that stupid smile of his.
