“Good match.” Matt said, and it’s all he could manage as he finally let go of the table. His hand was bruising already, but it didn’t matter. Nothing would matter, in a few seconds.“Yeah.” Manny replied with a nod, sounding unsure. He hadn’t put it together yet, that there wasn’t a plan. That’s good, Matt didn’t want to see his face when he realised.
or
An old, semi-finished 'what if (most of) the ETN S3 cast didn't die?', featuring a hell of a lot of ETN!MatPat angst because I like torturing my favs.
