You're totally stalling! Come on, even if we are, what's the worst that could come of it? Someone gets a picture or a video of you kissin' me on the noggin?
Ain't nothin' wrong with bein' affectionate toward someone little that you like like m—
[...Oh! Oh, he actually did it! That sure shuts her up, and leaves her just blinking owlishly for a second. Looks like Keith's investigating that door alone.]
[And while Millium's apparently short circuiting, Keith is going to snap up right and step back. He doesn't lfail back or anything, but the way he's acting you'd think he just kissed a sleeping shark or something.]
I didn't say anything was wrong with it.
[Just you know... weird. Not like he has a whole lot of happy memories of his parents smooching him on the head and he didn't ever think there'd be a day where he'd be doing it himself? Milium, you have no idea how frazzled he would be if he didn't have a door to immediately focus all of his attention on because you know who is never going to think about this incident again? Keet, that's who.]
C'mon, don't just stand there.
[DON'T STARE AT HIM? He'll head straight to the door now, immediately looking pissed off because it looks like nothing happened. But when he reaches out to try and jostle it again, there's a loud click and hey, what do you know. It's open and it looks like the rest of the Lodge is as beautifully trashed as ever. Is escape to the outside world really as easy as this appears to look? Stay tuned..]
[Listen, Keet. She is a very simple child. You can't just spring things like this on her, she doesn't know how to react.
But she does know how to react when that door clicks open, and like someone's flicked a switch she's right back to her normal, exuberant self, jumping for joy.]
Yaaay~! We got the door open!
[She's gonna trot right on over there and slip past Keith to get out before turning on her heels to look back at him. Sorry, Keet, there is no escaping the Millium stare.]
But hey, hey. If there was nothing wrong with it how come it took you so long?
[Keith blinks as she jets out of the room. He still thinks this whole situation is weird and doesn't really have it in him to be going "yay" over this until after they're outside for real (spoilers: even then he will not be cheering), but he;ll follow after Millium, keeping an eye out for any other shenanigans.
Or at least until she throws that qu estion out. Why does she always ask the hard hitting stuff anyway.]
Wouldn't it be weirder I was all excited about kissing you on the head?
[Let's just start there, shall we. As they walk down the dusty hallway, he'll just casually reach for his knife. You know. Just in case something wants to come at them.]
[Does Keith ever have it in him to go "yay?" Millium can't imagine being that much of a stick in the mud, but she's come to expect and accept it.
Speaking of...]
...Yeah, prolly, but even just [In her best (terrible) grumbly impression of Keith:] "Ugh, let's get this over with," and goin' ahead an' doin' it woulda gotten us out faster at least.
