MATEO
"I mean, both of them at different times?" Mateo says, which doesn't really help Everest's case when the boy starts to think about it. One dad might be wrong, but two? Nah. Still, he shakes said head with the sort of boyish confidence that, knowingly or otherwise, will one day become an ingrained part of his personality. "I think I would be okay," he assures Ever without knowing why. "But you can always stay and make sure if it would make you feel better."
He can only raise his eyebrows at his friend when he pulls the god card, though, because yes duh of course that's why it was okay. It's also why the Hart boy is an Attuned. But as their conversation plunges more deeply into the Ascended and his father's prior relationship with one, Mateo shifts somewhat uncomfortably in his seat. "I think so? I think they went on a date too, but I wasn't paying much attention."
His brow furrows now, because what Ever has to say does shake him, but he's determined not to show it. "Yeah well, Marny from history also said that some Abandoned turn to dust if they don't use their magic to hurt people, and my nonna says that's cazzate," he mutters.
