(He'll play as best he can. Already this is about the top most of goodness. Someone who loves and cares about him and cares for him? Then factor in magic healing.)

Knots can be undone with patience, hard work and of course time. His involvement in Hell's Kitchen has pulled him away from the wonderful puzzle of fitting their lives together. Matt is thankful it's one that he can come back to, one that isn't an emergency at all times. The emergency outside of the longing. But yes, he is pulled here and to Nexus by invisible strings. This is not a competition, how unfair it would be if it was...

Matt needs Verity. That much he knows. That whole being in love detail, wanting to be with her, wanting to talk to her... powerful stuff. This close he also thinks she smells divine. Is that stuff they made on Valentine's Day? Whatever it may be he arcs into her touch like a cat. "I'm standing firm on my patience verdict. ...you can see me as much as you like. I'll have to pay you back the best I can, try and make it worth your while." If that's a warning, sign him up!

"Plenty for Foggy might require more than what you get for me." He pushes off reluctantly and offers his hand to her to help her up.
