He grinned when she picked up the melody and started to improvise her own lyrics. Generously, Korbin accommodated her cawing by shifting the tune to fit her words, rather than the other way around, and supplemented a continuation;
"Then a stranger came calling
while the leaves were a'falling
with sweet promise of change from the old,
Sail on, sail on, to that far off dawn,
and dream until dreams come undone..."
He could keep going forever. Normally, this kind of song would have grown baudy and indecent, full of innuendo and strange events spiralling gradually out of hand. But for some reason, Korbin felt pensive today. Melancholy, in a way that showed through in his words... and for all the teasing, the worry he felt at this new element introduced to their lives couldn't be set aside.
His fingers stilled on the strings, and with a grimace he sighed. "Sorry. Seems it won't get more fun than this. I'll give that friend of yours a chance, Wee, but... be careful, alright? I can't help but feel something's off about this whole thing."
His intuition told him it was more than just a dude offering help to a stranger as a nice gesture. Why would anyone put any effort into Halo? Especially an outsider? It made no sense.

Deep into that darkness peering, Long I stood there
Wondering, Fearing
