She cups his face and presses two kisses to his cheeks and one to his forehead. Happy National Kissing Day!

     Eyebrows raise in surprise, but half a tick later a smile that’s very close to a grin spreads across his lips as Allura moves on to kiss his forehead. A soft laugh escapes him, though he takes a quick pause to cast a glance around them. The room is empty, which doesn’t surprise him given it’s unlikely Allura would have approached him like this if anyone else was present, but still. He just wants to be sure before he responds.

Attention shifting back to the princess before him, there’s a faint twitch at the corner of his smile as he mimics her action by cupping her face in his hands. …Hopefully the metal one isn’t too cold. Trying to avoid dwelling on that, however, he swiftly presses in to give her a peck on the lips, and then drifts up to kiss her forehead as well. This kiss lingers, however, and after a moment or two, his arms slide around her shoulders and pull her closer.

          Who said there can’t also be cuddling on National Kissing Day?

It's national kissing day! And since someone decided to slip a note underneath Allura's door about it, you bet your knickers she's already got her lips pressed to Shiro's.

What do you MEAN National Kissing Day is Over ?

          Her lips were warm - s o f t - &&. pressed against his seamlessly. The faded scent of flowers bloomed and tickled his nose as he leaned in, head tilting as metal fingers grazed and cupped her cheek gently. His arm moved to curl around her waist, human hand settling at the small of her back as he pulled her closer to his chest.           She was beautiful; her taste - her smell - intoxicating. Against him, she fit perfectly into his arms and every edge and curve. Shiro wanted to stay there, lips pressed against hers, but only the need for b r e a t h drew him back. He watched her with half-closed eyes. Pressed his head to hers and sighed while his heart thumped loudly against his chest. For once content just to stay still and BE, Shiro let his arms hold her close in the brief silence that followed.

         “You are perfect. I hope you know that….”

        He eyes the princess for a second, trying to comprehend exactly what she was trying to say to him. What she said earlier had irritated him, and yes, he did call her out for it, but what was she trying to accomplish by damn near contradicting herself? Antok’s tail twitches irritably and he crosses his arms.

       “ That is the same thing as lying, Altean. ”  He responds bitterly, nose crinkling behind his mask.  “ No matter how you put it, it is lying. Is this an example of how you monarchs dealt with topics in your time? What happened to your honesty, Princess? How did you gain the trust of your subjects and your allies? Did you feed them empty words then gave them more to make a pathetic patch over the wounds when they realized their leaders broke their promise? Did it continue on until the time of your race’s extinction?

           Was it your family who started the war between our races? ”

No doubt this exchange has happened on a mission before: Keith: “That guy almost got me, actually. Great form though.” Shiro: “Keith! Don’t compliment the enemies on almost killing you!” Keith: “I can admire a good technique even if it’s maybe the last thing I’ll ever see, Shiro.”

What with the lack of clocks purposed to tell time on Earth, Keith’s only way of estimating the hour was by judging everyone else’s schedule.   Right now, considering the others seem to be asleep, and have been for some time now,                  Keith would guess it’s somewhere around                                                REALLY EARLY.

Not that it even MATTERS. They’re up in the middle of space ; the concept of time doesn’t quite hold as much significance as it used to.

…Keith still feels oddly guilty for no discernible reason, however. Sleep doesn’t come easy, but the fact he isn’t even TRYING to find it puts something akin to contrition in the forefront of his mind. This he works to cast aside, focusing wholly on the hallways as he travels down them.

He’s been taking his evenings exploring the ship, getting a feel for the layout of the place. So far, his favorite place ( and thankfully the easiest to get to ) is the bridge. He likes to sit on the steps and stare out the glass as they float through the universe, passing stars and small planets he’s never even heard of. It’s incredible to consider all of the UNKNOWN that surrounds them.

It’s where he’s headed now, but as he rounds a corner he nearly barrels straight into—

                                             “ Allura, ”

                         “ …You’re up late. ”                                       Look who’s talking.

"All Galra have hurt me personally. Marmora or not -- you've a lot of GUTS to try and sit here and tell me otherwise."

“All of them? Even Keith? And Antok? He gave his life for your and Kolivan’s cause? You saying that is like me saying every Altean has hurt me personally. Saying that includes me, your red paladin, all the newborn galra kits who have no idea what’s even going on, and all the galra that are fighting to take down the empire just like you are. It’s an amazingly idiotic thing to say, princess.”
