can u... share more hcs.... pls
you know how in tiwlll lance was still getting used to the fact that he was allowed to think/say gay things about keith?
or like flirt seriously with him
well now with the link, every time lance sees keith do sth stupitt or cute, his gay thoughts are blasted in surround sound for keith to hear
can u imagine just going about your day and suddenly, this overwhelming sense of pure, unadulterated adoration gets directed at you? like for no reason? like someone just loves you bc you exist?? like can u believe??
the first time that happens, keith just starts crying what the fuck
(you know that love-starved boy would)
keith’s like doing sth at his station on the bridge, his hair’s too long and it gets in the way of his screens and he’s like periodically huffing and puffing at his fringe and then it gets so annoying that he pulls at it and threatens to cut it with his knife. like he’s just talking to himself
and at his own station, lance witnesses that and it’s just so--fuckign adorable oh my god holy FUCK keith can you not???? be so lovable?? fuck??? and his entire chest aches and he’s smiling unwillingly and his hands fist, nails biting into his skin because he just wants so badly to walk over there and pick keith up in a huuuuge hug and spin him around and crush him to his chest and cry over him or sth equally dramatic
and alllll that gets beamed over into keith’s head in real time
and keith just fckn. bursts into silent tears
HE FEELS LOVED OKAY
like it’s so warm and good in a way he’s been unable to feel before, like it’s strange it’s foreign but it feels like he’s been waiting for this forever, like he’s just now realizing he’s been missing a sixth sense or sth, and it’s almost too much like something expanding in his ribs and keith’s breathless he’s curling in his seat just gasping
cuz it’s one thing to be aware that people love you, like when they say it to you, ofc you believe them
but it’s a whole ‘nother thing when you have a mindlink that cannot lie, that shows you so vividly how much they love you
anyway that was the day everyone freaked out because keith kogane started crying on the bridge for no reason. they thought he was dying or sth
lance gets scolded by the others for surprising keith like that and worrying people and he’s like WHAT WAS I SUPPOSED TO DO??? NOT FEEL LOVE FOR HIM??? WAS I SUPPOSED TO HOLD IT BACK??? THAT’S IMPOSSIBLE
and oh there goes keith’s tears again. dammit lance
