Don't put your happiness in other people's hands
It was a good description of Weaver, and it was good for Halo that she was around right now. But Korbin wasn't too different himself. In many ways he was happier now in the midst of this crisis, working his ass off to help his people get back on their feet, than he had been in a long time. And messed up as that was... he imagined, hoped that they would be able to make a real difference, just by being there and being who they were.
Tucking the gloves into the back of his belt, Korbin gazed down at her with amusement dancing in the dark eyes. "Ah, that," he replied. "You didn't ask, though. And," he added, leaning down just a bit closer to murmur a reply in her ear, "you were quite including anyway. I didn't really miss out."
Straightening back up, he flashed her a wicked grin. It had been quite a lot streaming down that bond from her side... and he really wasn't complaining.
Still, he wasn't speaking back into her mind. A, because he couldn't, and B, because... well. Chulane. Korbin might be easy when it came to pretty girls, but he wasn't the type to break into the kind of budding thing these two seemed to have going on. He made no move to close the distance further, and though he was laughing, there was still a distance to him that didn't really invite to be broached.

They'll drop it
