[ The question is punctuated by a brief slide and tap of Stephen's fingers over the table that Matt is currently sat at, but he doesn't yet sit, waiting for confirmation like polite people should. He's heard of the guy, of course -- Stephen is nothing if not aware of the more interesting names around the university -- and a blind pre-law student is definitely the sort to pop up on his radar.
He'd been surprised to see the ad for a reader put up by him on the on-line bulletin board, but had supposed it as good a time as any to get to know the man behind the name.
(And if he'll be perfectly honest, the man is a little cute.) ]
Hi. I'm Stephen Strange, [ with a reputation of his own, he's sure -- the full ride scholarship kid who overloads on units and holds the only tutorial sessions for science classes that absolutely guarantee As ] I messaged you two days ago?
[ Stephen isn't foolish enough to construct portals in broad daylight, so he pops up in a thin strip of land between two buildings and jogs the rest of the way to the bakeshop.
With the way the world's changed, nobody seems to be staring at Mantis too much. The crowd walks around her like they would anyone else.
Stephen, however, taps her on the shoulder. Surely she'll recognise him even without the cloak and tunic. ]
I almost didn't believe you were here. [ His mouth twitches just a bit. ] But I'm happy to be proven wrong.
[ In the Sanctum, it's easy to conjure tea, which Stephen does without even a wave of his hands. The tea is in a cup made of a bamboo segment, and warm like it'd been newly poured and left a few seconds to bring it down from burning temperature.
The cup floats a few inches away from Mantis' fingers so she can reach it easily, like an offering. Stephen doesn't look up from his book, but feels a smile threaten to break onto his mouth. ]
