[u]Box number 69 Mathew Holmes and Mia Betancourt[/u] [h1]Mathew Holmes[/h1] Mathew was brought out of his musings by the voice of the girl. She sounded scared (alliteration! Woop!) '[color=fff79a]they can't really expect me to fight someone like her without good reason. She sounds like she would take cover in a corner if I so much as looked at her wrong. I might not even have to do that much if her current state is any indication[/color]' Holding back a sigh, he addressed the girl who had introduced herself as Mia "[color=fff79a]It's a pleasure to meet you Mia[/color]" he said with a small bow. Then he made his way over to her at a steady pace and with a gentle smile on his face, to help set her at ease. Once he reached her, Mathew took her hand in his and gave the back of it a quick kiss before letting go "[color=fff79a]I am Mathew Holmes.[/color]" He introduced himself, hoping to make her feel less scared. "[color=fff79a]You needn't worry; even if it was their plan, I have no intent to fight someone such as yourself. If you'll forgive my making assumptions; you seem to be the type who finds no joy in direct combat, and would in fact come of such a confrontation quite shaken up.[/color]" [@AliceInRedHeels]
