Jesper nods as he explains what channeling feels like to him, and he relates, since it's similar for him. He knows what it's like to fabrikate, as opposed to when he used his superspeed here for the first time. "Or maybe it won't do the same thing to you here, in this world. Maybe that's a curse that only exists there." It makes as much sense as anything else, and Jesper is a rather optimistic person overall. Strangely enough.

He runs his fingers through Mat's hair soothingly. "Listen, you can tell me any stories you want, or you don't have to tell me anything." Jesper kisses his cheek gently. "But if you get worried about any of this, you can talk to me about it too." Mat has people here, new friends, and not being alone is essential to getting through situations like this sanely.

"I'm your friend either way, love." He threads their fingers together on one hand. "Anyone with power ends up struggling with what it'll bring out in them, if they've got a conscience." Jesper's been thinking about it a lot lately, now that he's using his powers more constantly, and knows the extent of how dangerous or helpful they can be.
