KORBIN
Remember when I swore
That you and I would never die
That you and I would never die
His rants were not uncommon, the young raven always had a lot to say. Plenty of opinions, full of thoughts, tales, songs and ideas. Once they were just happy and enthusiastic, but like everything else they had darkened over the past season. At least he was still communicating, even if it was mostly with her.
Unfortunately for Loren, he had shown up at the worst possible time, and became a welcome target for all that pent up ire and irritation. Just like Sunjata - and far more accessible - the Healer drew out all the worst things in Korbin, and whether that was because he really liked or really disliked the man even Korbin couldn't tell.
He did know, Weaver's response to his question was unexpected enough to actually shut him up. He just stared at her, dumbfounded.
Not for long, though.
"Seriously? Loren? He's a weedy pushover! Do you honestly think he'll be able to keep up with you?"
When his expression changed, it was into one of genuine concern. Oh, he wasn't happy about it being Loren of all people, but that was beside the point. Korbin was far more interested in her emotions, the honesty in her gaze, the fact that she was even telling him about it. It was unusual enough that it seemed serious. And much as he wanted to be happy for her... His sister was a strong woman. Smart, free, intelligent and not one to back down or have patience with bullshit. Not many people had the backbone to handle that; only gods knew that it took everything he had just to keep up with her, and certainly not these days.
Loren... did not strike him as the kind that would be able to push back enough to be her equal.

Remember when you swore
we had it all?
we had it all?
