KORBIN
Leave my loneliness unbroken!
- quit the bust above my door!
- quit the bust above my door!
The black bird croaked a hoarse laugh that sounded eerily human. "Struck dumb by the sheer presence of me too... Why, if you keep flattering like this I might start to like you." It came out as more a threat than promise.
Conversely, his own humor faded into more of an embarrassed squirm at the pure joy Loren sent his way. It felt strange to be so... appreciated. Not that Weaver wasn't voicing approval when he did things, but it wasn't the same as feeling it. The raven had an awful suspicion that Loren had been right, the healer really was growing on him. There was no end to the chagrin he felt at that thought.
"Benefits all around," he mumbled - if thoughts could indeed mumble. "If you end up hating me showing up for work, I will remind you that this was all your idea."
This time, it had the hallmarks of a promise.

Quoth the Raven,
"Nevermore."
"Nevermore."
