The idea that he would both completely misunderstand and be dumbfounded by the knowledge that someone had feelings for him beyond friendship amused him greatly. Did he really come off as that simple all the time? Oh well; it was probably for the best.
"I would not have thought that." Nokosi smirked, eyebrows drawn in skepticism. "First and foremost, 'scarred and scared' are not words that befit you, so believing for a moment that you would be that type of girl is just silly."
He held up a hand, two fingers extended to represent his points. "Secondly, Matt and I are two very different people." The elf gave her an odd look that was replaced with a smile moments later. "If you were seeing all of him in me, then I would be far more worried about your mental state than my feelings on such a thing."
"Thirdly, who cares if you had?" he said, coolly. "It would just mean that I would have a challenge...no, an adventure on my hands! One in which the treasure at the end would be winning over your affections."
He shrugged a shoulder and regarded her with a side-long glance. "I would not have minded. Everyone knows that the things one wants the most are usually the most difficult to attain. It is why they are worth so much effort."
