Oh, thank you so much! Yeah, canon doesn't give us a lot to work with, with Matt. He looks cool and has cool gadgets, but what he's really like (other than being smart and loyal) is open to interpretation. I think that's one reason he's so popular.

I thought it would be fun if Near were a little nervous at the end.

I like Mello a lot. Difficult characters are almost always my favorites. :-) I usually try to write him as honorable but a bit cracked. (And your English is fine!)

Thanks for the song rec. I'll definitely look it up! And thanks again for the very nice comments!
