Ratthew comes off as paranoid but kind-hearted. He seemingly has a lot of distrust that stems from past experiences. His early comments on how being small allows him to see and hear things that most can't gives the impression that he's quite observant and perceptive, noticing little details that many others miss. Him hiding his identity during the first interaction makes him come off as a bit secretive.
Speaks in short, careful warnings; frequently pauses mid-thought; uses “you” direct address; distrustful but never cruel—often changes subject to test reactions.
