To make you bow and spit it out?
To make you bow and spit it out?
He would have let her go. Should have. Didn't exactly crave company, or chatter. But through he was moody and absorbed in his own misery, Korbin was not quite numb enough to be cruel either. Too many voices buzzed in his head, speaking of care and concern and to prove that you're not the bully you say you're not.
When she began to eat faster, clearly hurrying to be away from him, Korbin dragged a hand over the face and sighed quietly. Guilt flooped over somewhere inside, reminding him of emotions other than the pain.
"Sorry," he muttered quietly, the words forming reluctantly. "It wasn't long, since... but not your fault." Dragging long fingers through the unruly hair, Korbin took a deep breath, tried to muster some semblance of civility. It did not come easy, and he didn't smile, but after emptying the glass and the burn of alcohol kicked in, he managed to straighten up.
"You're gonna want to find someplace to crash, if you can. LongNight is coming... If you think it's cold now, you're in for it." Already the temperature was brutal, and a week of perpetual night would not improve anything.

Doesn't matter if I hate you or embrace you
Nothing makes you turn around
Nothing makes you turn around
