Carnage and Dima spent the better part of an hour walking all the way to the opposite side of Whispers to the inlet that Gaston had built his home on. They sat on the bank beside a now empty picnic basket, watching the corks on their fishing lines bobbing in the water.

“Be sure to thank your mate for the lunch, Carnage. She didn’t have to feed me, too. I appreciate it,” he said.

Carnage nodded. “Feeed ev’bodee,” he said, with a firm nod.

“She’s a good female. Loves you,” Dima stated, while he watched the corks.

“’Es!” Carnage said emphatically.

“I’d like that one day. If I can find a female that would have me,” Dima said.

Carnage pulled his attention from the cork on his line and looked at Dima. He pitched his voice high and imitated the shriek of the Banshee, only not as loud as a real scream. “Screeeeeee!”

Startled, Dima looked at Carnage, then started laughing when he realized Carnage was glaring at him with his eyes widened, and using one hand to pull the skin of his own face down to resemble the melting face of the banshee when she was screaming and haunting. Still chuckling and holding his stomach with one hand because he’d laughed so hard, he shook his head. “No, not Maura. I thought maybe, but she’s not interested. I’ve tried to let her know I care, but nothing ever came of it. We’re friends, though. And I’m okay with that.”

Carnage nodded.

Dima looked over at Carnage again and started laughing thinking of Carnage imitating Maura.

Carnage grinned and just kept fishing.

“I was thinking, though. I’d like to build a house like yours someday, but somewhere near the water so I can get up in the morning and fish off the deck if I want to,” Dima said.

“’Arnge halp!” Carnage said, slapping his own chest, excited to be able to help his friend.

Dima nodded. “When I have a female, then I’ll build it. You can help then. Thank you,” Dima said.

Carnage nodded at first, but then he started shaking his head. “Housh, now,” he said firmly.

“Now?” Dima asked.

“Now! Feeemaale ‘seep?” he asked, lifting one hand in the air palm up. “Feeemaale heere, huh ‘seep?”

Dima thought about what Carnage said. “Ohhh! If I find her, where’s she going to sleep if I don’t already have a place?”

“’Es!” Carnage said.

“Never really thought about it. I would need somewhere for her to be safe,” Dima said.

Carnage nodded.

“I don’t want to be deep in the dark swamp anymore, especially with The Dark One there now.”

Carnage’s forehead wrinkled up and he looked at Dima. “Here?!” Carnage asked.

Dima nodded. “Yes, sometimes. I haven’t seen him, but Brannaugh has. He said that he’s not dangerous to us for now. Said he’s more worried about his own female than us.”

“’Ooo?” Carnage asked.

“The Siren. Aubreigne. Brannaugh has become her friend. He’s been watching over her just to be sure she’s safe, because he knows The Dark One has returned to Whispers.”

“Saafe?” Carnage asked insistently.

Dima nodded. He trusted Brannaugh. He
