[ The reference to the other him, the one who'd wound up in a place called Horos, prompts a spark of--what else--curiosity. A hint of sympathy, too. Sebastian was surprised by it earlier, but maybe the second time around it won't be such a shock: Matt doesn't like to think of anyone being shunned or castigated just because of who they are. What they are. Not even a demon.

That's gracious of you to offer, [ he says with a smile. ] I'd be down to see what happens, for sure. [ That's arguably not very kind phrasing vis-a-vis Set. Matt's just not positive he can predict what would happen! ] And even if it ended up being a total disaster, I'd still get to spend some time with you and eat your food. So it sounds like a good deal for me overall.
