[He's not happy about this. He's really, really, really not happy about this.
This, of course, being sent out for weapon runs. Not that he minds usually, all things considered; he knows why he's sent, and it's because he's a very good haggler, and also very good at keeping an eye on the army's funds (it comes of having sticky fingers himself; he's very good at catching other thieves).
That's all fine and dandy.
Less fine and dandy is being sent with Jaffar. Hector had explained it, saying they were practically in enemy territory and if he needed to get out of there fast, it was good to have a strong blade at his back. Matthew had retorted that having that strong blade at his back was what was so worrying in the first place.
...But here he was anyway. Cloaked, hooded, stalking forward towards the town with grim steps. He may have decided to not kill Jaffar, but that doesn't mean he's happy about his company.]
...Keep up. If I leave you behind, I won't hear the end of it.
[Don't be unfair, Matthew, Jaffar can move just as fast as you can.]
