He glanced down at his knee for a moment, temporarily distracted by Mattie's sudden touch. Max stared, thinking for a brief moment before slipping back into attentive consciousness. Had she ever done that before? In school? Had that been... something they did?
"Uh," Max faltered, his mind still lagging to catch up. What had been the question? Questions. He let out a laugh and rubbed the side of his face slowly. Eventually, his mind caught up and he attempted his best to answer her questions. "Um---"
"A winged horse," Max nodded with enthusiasm, raising his hands up wide and far apart to help emphasize just how big the magical creature was. Of course, it hadn't been all by himself and he would hardly call it a job yet, as he felt he was doing much more studying than being paid to do a job. But his studies would lead to a job, so that was what mattered, in the end. "I love it, I love what I'm doing and the people in my program, and it's really--- it's really nice, it feels right."
Looking down at his knees, Max swallowed before continuing. Smiling faintly, he turned his head slightly to look at Mattie out of the corner of his eye. "It would be great to see you more. It's been very long, I'd almost forgotten...." Max trailed off, relatively unsure of what he was even saying. His mind still felt slow, lethargic from the heat and hyped up from... well, he wasn't sure what, but it felt on edge. Perhaps from attending this event lonesome; usually wherever he went it wasn't without a partner to attend with. "It's been a long time."
