She was so passionate, he could feel it in the way her body tremored, shivering with anticipation that the flames of rage stoked within her. It was a quality he loved, he admired, and he dearly hoped to never have aimed at him, lest he turn to a pile of ash after a simple glare from her. Despite the headache, the concussion, everything, he almost felt sorry for Korbin should he face Kia again in the near future.
Almost.
"I think I might be able to stomach some toast, eventually." He said quietly, almost reluctantly, as he didn't want her move away from him - he enjoyed their close proximity too much. Happy to just sit here, with her, a bit different to their usual nights lounging in front of the fireplace, or 'retiring' to bed, or having a bath…
He was suddenly mad at the raven-boy again, for incapacitating him from an enjoyable evening with Kia.
But then he was determined not to let Korbin have such an influence on his life, at least not long term. He was alive, he was home, he was with her, and his headache would soon be gone for good as his body realised it had been healed - he was probably just due for a good sleep now.
"You're gonna kick my arse next training sesh huh." He mentioned in an attempt to shift the mood, the topic, to safer waters.
