KORBIN

maybe they never will be
With the dough kneaded to satisfaction, Korbin divided it up, set it aside on the counter and covered it in a towel to rise. He was dusting flour off his hands when something stinky and vile came hurling at him through the air, and slapped him wetly at the side of the face.
Cringing back, Korbin made a disgusted sound and stared down at the strip of half-rancid meat that flopped to the floor, then turned with a murderous expression on Weaver.
"You're cleaning the ktchen next time," he said ominously. The deep voice was quiet and a bit unsteady, rusty from disuse. Since he couldn't hear any replies, or indeed his own voice, Korbin had mostly just stopped trying to speak. It seemed very pointless.
At her invitation to join, he made a face. Looked around to see if there was anything to distract himself with and use as excuse... but no. Stew was simmering on the stove, the bread was rising, and he'd been too meticulous about cleaning dishes as he went along; the room was pristine.
He sighed. Nodded, and followed her off to the back. Dreading the silence that was their only option these days.

But they can still carry you home
when you are ready to sleep
when you are ready to sleep
