you had a heart, it's been gone since they left you
Korbin hummed and nodded, not bothering to deny it. He did laugh at the idea of Loren needing to cover for the others. "Ah, I see. You think you need to save the faces of jerks who get called out for being jerks. You don't. They knew what they were doing too. Does it look like they're sorry to you?" Korbin threw a glance at the people that toiled away amidst the rubble. One of them caught his eye and made a rude gesture; the raven made one right back, and grinned darkly.
"No idea. Maybe they would have tried to beat you up for real. Maybe they would have listened. How should I know? I'm a jerk too, I think you've noticed by now."
Alright, so maybe Weaver's hopes that he would start to behave just because she gave him a job were a bit off the mark. This really wasn't going well.
Problem was, Korbin wasn't sure he really wanted to try and make peace with this guy. It's what he should be doing, but it was made difficult by the fact that he didn't think he'd done anything wrong. Oh, sure, his choice of words could have been better, but the general message had been very much genuine. He didn't get Loren's response, or this thorny attitude now.
Korbin watched the guy struggle with the rock for a while, but when the others showed no signs of coming to help, he bit back a sigh. Alright, fine. Message taken; the healer was his problem now. He stepped in on the opposite end and hunched down, dug his fingers in beneath the rock and heaved. Muscles straining, he waited for Loren's cue and prepared to carry the burden off to the side.
