Invincible like I've never been

Comfort! Hugs! Happiness! ... or something like that.

CW: slavery, captivity

It was still fairly early and the birds were bickering over the last berries of the trees in the courtyard. Kell couldn’t believe how loud they were. He rested his elbows on the windowsill.

He had never been good at identifying birds but he was almost sure the birds down there were sparrows. He wondered where Jinn was right now. With each passing day he lost another drop of hope of seeing him again. Maybe he would never ...

Kell instinctively started counting the panels on the floor. He was waiting for Robin in one of the rehearsal rooms. Robin liked making people wait for her. But today Kell was fine with that. The later she was the less time he had to spent with her.

Neither of them had been happy, when Oryn had paired them for their next performance. But even though Kell hated her, he had to admit that their voices harmonized perfectly. And he just hated her even more because of that.
