[ he’s just -- staring. until he’s not. there’s a cloud of rainbow butting in on their table and idly, shiro wonders if this is some kind of sign. don’t they symbolize hope and peace and new beginnings after some great calamity? well, this conversation turned stare-a-thon is certainly a misfortune on his life. so seems fitting.
especially when behind the rainbow pops a familiar face. blessed keith, always there, always ready to save him. shiro’s never known a truer friend. shiro’s even beginning to smile. it doesn’t stretch far.

[ flat. exasperated. wow, way to be a spoilsport, shiro. though, on second thought, entities and the like, they’re all operating off the idea of fear and suffering, right? then maybe…
looks to keith now and check it out, the frown eases. try guessing who shiro favors here. ]
We were getting to know one another. [ paaaaaause. ] But then decided to… take a break?
[ it’s been an exhausting five minutes; a time-out was highly required. ]
1 brain cell is a generous assessment
