Matt was not aware of the growls all around them. His attention was scattered, at best, preventing him from registering anything resembling danger besides how the guy standing in front of him clearly should look more like shit than he currently did. The hug he certainly wasn't expecting. At first, he tensed, ready to get in another good swing but unable to move his arms enough to accomplish one. His hands, grasping around for something, managed to grab on to part of Klyk's robe. Once he had it he didn't do anything with it, though, he just needed something to hold on to.
"I'd like to see them try." He bit out through conflicting emotions, distracting him from his anger further. Strong arms surrounded him. It was that feeling again, being pinned by not uncomfortable, except this time it wasn't just his wrists being pinned. He tried to hold on to the tension to keep up the pretense of resistance, but he could feel himself relaxing into the hug until he was practically leaning on Klyk for support. Fuck he was tired.
"It's none of your business." Matt grumbled. His face had somehow fallen against Klyk's shoulder and he didn't seem particularly inclined to either move or speak more clearly against the warm skin. He didn't want to explain himself. He didn't want to get into his long sob story and awful fucking past. It was frustrating almost as much as it was a relief to have found one person in this god damned city who both knew him, but didn't know of him. That didn't have to change, even if this stupid fucking dog had, for some reason, decided to make him a pet project in thief wrangling.
Man, the shit he stole didn't even matter. That was all practically for fun. Last night was different and he didn't know how he was supposed to explain that without giving everything away. So, he didn't.
"Bud, in case you forgot, I shot you yesterday. Murder might be escalating a bit, I'll give you that one, but threatening violence should be a given by now." Instead, he deflected onto safer topics and tried to pretend that he wasn't practically clinging to this crazy asshole like he was an emotional touch-starved moron. Shit, he really needed to get laid. That's what he should have done instead of coming out here. Blown off some steam, napped, then go back to work. You know what they say, hindsight is 20/20.
