Brown laughed at Ambrose's mix-up. He enjoyed the charismatic honesty of the man. "I assure you, despite it sounding slightly odd, Cheeseman is a [i]real[/i] name. I of all should I know." He chuckled brightly, walking up the bustling brightly lit streets of the festival. The normally sleepy street had been converted into a colorful parade of all the town's characters for one of the few nights in a year. He shoved his sleek hands into the worn-out pockets of his jeans. 

Ambrose's laugh made Brown smile. As he chimed at his own joke the younger boy couldn't help but crack a grin. As he continued talking Brown listened and walked. Only stopping when the merry voice of his companion began getting further away. He turned to see he had stopped and was busily texting someone. As Brown listened the smile dropped. He listened to him talking about someone.

Rowan. 

He knew her. Of course he did. How could he not? He knew how pretty she was. He knew how smart she was. He knew her soft features by memory, but he doubted she knew him. At all, let alone well. And at the suggestion from the matchmaker, he felt his face going red. He began talking, nervously. Then as his new friend began talking again, he was put at ease. Upon his friend's casual usage of the term 'Cronenberg mouse,' Brown couldn't help but begin laughing at the utter ridiculousness of the situation.

He had not laughed this hard in a long time. He wheezed until he could wheeze no more. And that did not stop the tears from flowing. When he could finally catch his breath he came up from his doubled-over position. "You're a fool, Ambrose, and I think we'll get along well. As for my friend? He still has yet to show face. No doubt working late in the pub." He gave a slight frown at this, it was hard to hide his worry for Aleyn, but he would try to keep spirits high in his present company. He quickly fired a text to his good friend:
