[ whatever energy keith had for a clown shakedown fizzles with shiro taking charge of the situation. between them, shiro's usually the more measured one so if he's pissed enough to be doing property damage over a "spook" then whatever happened was probably pretty bad.
not that keith needed the additional cue to discern that much, but with shiro taking justice into his own hands, keith is far more willing to leave the carnie to salvage the scrap metal the scope has become and follow after his best friend, holding the red hippo tight in his arms.
he doesn't say anything, waiting until they're a couple of yards away from the carnie to reach up and put his hand on shiro's shoulder. ]
Hey. [ voice soft but insistent, he squeezes the joint once and lets go. ] What happened back there? [ a beat. ] Is everything really okay?
[ what he really ought to be saying here is thanks for winning the hippo for me, but somehow that seems to be missing the point completely. ]
i know you're not sorry
