I don't know.

[It's a short, succinct answer, all caused by the fact that Keith suddenly feels suffocated by Shiro's words. I want you to lead Voltron. Even here, that belief remained.

The thing is, Keith knows he's changed, both as a paladin and a member of this team.

But that's part of the problem. And the longer he keeps that smothering fear from Lance, the worse he fears it'll be when it comes out.]

[competing]

[ well. it's definitely not a no, and considering who he's talking to, that's pretty much an invitation. still, lance isn't entirely sure how open that door is, so he thinks maybe nudging it open a little further with his foot, without outright barging in will do just fine for now. ]

well
im by the lake trying to feed the kraken
so if you ever decide ill probably be here for a while

[secondnature]

Yeah?

Well, don't fall in.

I can't lose you, too.

[The words come easily. Shifting the focus onto Lance for a moment helps.]

[competing]

[ well if they have to spend a few minutes talking about him, lance is (no surprises here) more than willing to fall on that particular sword. ]

no risk of that here im as agile as a cat!
...that can also swim really well if ever accidents happen
so i guess im more like a tiger

[secondnature]

You think you're as fierce as a tiger?

[competing]

you dont??

[secondnature]

Dude, have you SEEN a tiger?

NEITHER of us are as fierce as a tiger.

[competing]

ok but i can still swim like one
no — EVEN BETTER

[secondnature]

That's because you're a human. Not a tiger. You're not as big.

[competing]

so you agree i could take one

[secondnature]

I NEVER SAID THAT

[competing]

AWW THANKS BABE I BELIEVE IN ME TOO

[secondnature]

IF YOU FALL IN I'M NOT COMING TO HELP YOU

[competing]

ill be fine! its like if pidge fell into a pile of math
ok thats not a great analogy but you get what i mean
though i guess the waters a little colder than im used to
not to mention the actual kraken
but it probably wont STILL be hungry right

[secondnature]

Get out of the water.

[competing]

i want it on record that going in myself to prove a point isnt the same thing as falling in

[secondnature]

Sounds to me like you fell in.

[competing]

did not! check the record!

[secondnature]

You're only saying that because you know the only record we BOTH have is your word on the matter.

[competing]

come on would i lie about something like that??

[secondnature]

Uh

Yeah?

Yeah you would.

[competing]

thats hurtful
anyway youre wrong and im a graceful little mer-tiger

[secondnature]

You're not a mermaid OR a tiger.

[competing]

exactly
because im BOTH

[secondnature]

Do you just want to be like ... maybe an alien like me? Is that it? Because that's what a mertiger would be, right?
