(no subject)

[Back when Lance got hurt, Keith kind of knew, even as he was getting pissed off at his soulmate for needlessly endangering himself, that he would do the same thing at some point. That Lance was going to be in danger and Keith was going to do something without thinking through the consequences and get hurt.

At least he saves it up for something important. Because they're ambushed on-planet and Keith doesn't even really consciously realize what he sees before he's knocking Lance out of the way of a shot that hits him in the side instead. Luckily for, well, everyone, it turns out not to be Galra attacking them, just locals that figured they could pick up some cash by bringing in the Paladins. Most of what they had on their side was the element of surprise, and once that's gone, it's not really that bad a fight. Someone else can figure out what to do with unconscious combatants when it's over, though, because Keith needs a minute or several to catch his breath.]

first date: take two.

[They're trying the date thing again.

Keith still doesn't think it's something that should require that much work. All they actually need for a date is him and Lance, being together, preferably without getting interrupted by battles or by, uh, whatever happened the first time they tried this. But Lance still wants it to be special, so Keith's going to go along with that.

Not that there's a whole lot he can do to make that happen beforehand, aside from promising himself that he won't fuck this up. Since Lance picked what they're doing again, he lets Lance come to his room again to let him know when he's ready and spends the intervening time vaguely trying to learn the Altean alphabet from a set of cards Coran was all-too-happy to help him put together. (They do live in an Altean castle, it seemed like a useful thing to know.)]
