[Buddy, that is why he made a beeline for you. This guy doesn't make the usual sounds a person makes, but that doesn't mean he can't be tracked; the clink of his armor, the feeling of air parting around him, some strangely unidentifiable...feeling in the air, like the hum of powerlines on a humid night, it's all as powerful an indication as a heartbeat, as the sound of a breath.
The strangeness does help him hold back a playfully sarcastic quip at that observation though, and Matthew just laughs a little and ducks his head.] Bedsheets, actually. Soft ones. I'm a little bit spoiled on that front. [Also, he wants to follow this guy around a little bit and get a better feel for how he moves, how he smells, how he sounds. Most of the people in those ships have heartbeats and footsteps, and Matt's not going to let anybody who doesn't take him by surprise.]
