sᴄᴜʟʟʏ. (sometime before the event.)
not to say he hadn't been there frequently before, he had. whether it's a catholic church or not, Matt has always treated it about as such. there might be a creature hiding beneath the floorboards, and it might be incredibly lacking a priest, but it's close enough and it's a good place to pray. he'd managed to fish a rosary he requested out of the drink and especially now, he goes to pray every morning.
for the people he has here, for the things that he doesn't want to lose. if God can hear him, even here, even now, he hopes that his prayers will mean something for the people he cares about.
he notices, sooner or later, that he's often not alone here in the mornings. they don't talk, but they're here for the same thing. eventually, despite the fact it would probably make the nuns that raised him recoil in terror, he finally breaks the silence. )
Catholic? Or Lutheran? ( yes, this is based entirely on the fact she a.) prays and b.) doesn't make smalltalk. )
CATHOLIC SQUAD
she's seen the man seated nearby before, head bent in obvious prayer, but hasn't introduced herself for the same reasons he hadn't. she's not expecting the intrusion, but given that she's not actually praying, she doesn't mind it. ]
Catholic. [ she's about to hold out her necklace as she turns towards him, but then notices his sunglasses and realizes the gesture would be moot. he's holding a rosary that gives away which one he is. ]
no subject
Matt has always rather enjoyed finding kinship in his faith. the idea he might not be the only catholic in Beacon is a bit of a reassurance. he offers half a smile in Scully's direction, subdued by their location and simply an outward reflection of the wearing on his mood, but genuine even in its simplicity. )
Not quite the same as Mass, but I'm glad the church is here. Makes it a little easier. ( obviously one didn't need a church to pray, but the familiarity of the routine is still nice. )
