Dammit. They didn't want to be noticed; not here, not in this strange place where he didn't have a hold of the magic yet. They were vulnerable here, and they didn't want to risk being endangered.
So he resorted to his usual tactic in cases like this; completely ignoring any and all questions about their use of plurals, and pretending that the questions where never asked. And in this case, that was easy, because he had plenty of questions to ask himself. "Um. Okay. Tir Tairngire. At the risk of sounding kinda crazy here. Um. Where exactly is Tir Tairngire?" The Irish he could manage well enough - the Blue Electric Angels knew all languages spoken on the wire - but the place was still one he'd never heard of before in his entire life.
"Uh, I'm Matthew," he added, with just a bit of waryness. Paranoia tended to make him inclined to not go about telling people who he is, when he finds himself in strange cities he's never heard of with magic he doesn't know. Except they were probably already looking suspicious enough without looking like a person trying to avoid identifying themselves as well.
