[ the ramen is for him. it shouldn't be nearly as touching as it is, but with the food in jail in an even more deplorable state, it's hard not to be immensely touched by the knowledge that the wolf and shiro were looking out for him. teaming up, even, to make sure he's had a bite to eat, and some friendly company.
you guys... is what he starts to say, but shiro's gotten other ideas. seeing the galra hand light up gives the plan away immediately, but it still surprises keith on some level that shiro would be going to these lengths after giving those warnings about not crossing prison personnel. is he complaining or telling shiro to stop, however? no. absolutely not. his stay in solitary this time has been much different to his last one, and a more paranoid part of keith suspects their overlords might have left him to die here.
before he can yet again get too lost down a rabbit hole of grim pessimism, the door creaks open slowly before it's slammed open by a whirlwind of paws and silvery blue fur. the wolf leaps froward, tail wagging furiously as keith lets out a yelp before getting knocked backwards. he braces for a burn that never comes. confused but pleased all the same, keith tkaes an extra second to get his bearings. ]
H-hey, it's good to see you too, buddy.
[ wrestling the wolf until he's up to a seated position, keith laughs and gives the wolf a gentle noogie. [] THank you for bringing Shiro and food.
[ speaking of which, keith looks up then, turning his attention to shiro at the opened doorway, ramen cup back in hand. ]
.... and thank you, too. I -- [ making a face, keith pushes the wolf's snout away to try and properly get to his feet, only to have his hand promptly covered in drool. ] Heh, c'mon, let me up.
[ the wolf assents this time, sitting down like a proper good boy with wide innocent eyes. keith rises, then takes several steps towards shiro. ]
There's not a whole lot to say about it. Lance, Angel and I found a trunk that had a mummified alien body inside. Angel took the body apart, and we found a large capsule inside. It contained a slip of paper with a pattern on it and a ship trinket. We took it, hoping to figure out what it was, but we never did. I just... maybe all of this is because something in the lighthouse wants it back.
[ smile slipping, keith forces it back in place as he leaves just one last step between him and shiro. ]
.. but you're right. This place doesn't need reasons to mess with us. [ tentatively, keith holds up his hand. ] ... Think I could touch you too? [ without getting burned that is. or would that be too generous of whatever curse thing is going on. ]
