the
BLANKET BURRITO
meme

so, winter came. snuggle up, little pups! your character has been rolled up like a comfy cleopatra. since you're too settled in to move, a friend may have to take care of your other needs, or take advantage of the situation by throwing you over their shoulder or taping it shut while you're snoozing. encourage them to find their own blanket and have a caterpillar race. just curl up with each other. whatever. it's a blanket burrito. it's impossible to be sad in a blanket burrito.

rules
1. post with your character name, series, preferences
2. your character has been burrito'd
3. tag around, be nice, business as usual

[Shiro has no idea in the world how a Galra managed to escape detection on Earth, much less how one managed to stick around and interact long enough for a human to not only fall in love with her but have a kid too. The Galra he's seen haven't exactly been easy to hide. Maybe they've got some kind of cloaking device like Pidge put on Green or some kind of digital disguise - though he hasn't seen proof of either of those things existing. If they're shape-shifters like Allura she's failed to mention that as well. Coran might have an idea but they haven't exactly had the time or the inclination to ask him yet. Shiro, one arm still around Keith, reaches over with his other and gives one of the younger paladin's ears a light tug, craning his neck as if he's looking.]

Are you sure? Because I've always thought your ears were a little pointed. Didn't want to say anything and make you self-conscious -

Hey!

[Keith ducked his head, swatting Shiro's hand away.]

That's not cool!

[He knew Shiro was teasing, though.]

[headspacedad]

[Shiro's hand swats easily away and he exhales a quiet sound that's his usual equivalent of laughter. Yes, he knows Keith is dealing with a very heavy thing and he knows its not going to be easy for him. But it's important to hear him acting like the teen he is. It tells Shiro he's going to be all right. The arm around his shoulders gives another light squeeze and then lets go as Shiro stands up, ruffling Keith's hair one more time as he rises. His face is relaxed, smiling a little, but his voice is soft and serious.]

Keith. You are who you've always been. You're the best pilot I know, my brother in everything but blood, my right hand and the paladin of the Red Lion. None of that has changed. What you do with the rest of it, that's up to you - but it's your call. Not anyone else's. Your team feels the same way. And anyone else... [Allura was having a hard time dealing with the new revelation and she was being restrained but not very subtle about it. Shiro thought it was something she and Keith were going to have to work through on their own. His saying something... he didn't think that would actually help and it might even harm. So he kept his mouth shut. But - Allura was a good woman and a good leader and Shiro had faith in her heart. And he had faith in Keith's ability to prove himself. He rested a hand on the younger paladin's shoulder.] Anyone else just needs time to adjust to their own unhealed wounds. It'll work out.

[Like his hair wasn't messy enough. He ran a hand through it roughly to 'straighten it out', if it could be called that, but then looked up at Shiro as the other spoke.

Deep down, Keith knew Shiro was right. He was just having trouble feeling it. But, it was nice to have things reaffirmed, pointed out... to have someone else confirm all of that. He knew it hadn't been very long for Allura in her own mind. She'd been asleep, so the memories felt like they weren't that long ago. He honestly couldn't fault her, for all the hurt it made him feel when she turned her back on him or glared at him like that.

He lowered his head again for a moment, and then brought up his hand to grip Shiro's forearm.]

Thanks.

[Keith gave Shiro something of a weak smile.]

I'll be alright. I just need to get my head on straight.

[headspacedad]

[Shiro returns the grip, his own fingers wrapping around Keith's forearm in response and he holds it. Keith is one of his people, one of the closest he has and he doesn't think he could do this as completely as he needs to if his friend wasn't there with him. His smile is soft and real and his fingers give a light squeeze before he lets go.]

You'll be all right. [He agrees, believing it completely. And then he points to the food bar with a tip of his chin before turning to head for the door.] Eat something. Drink something. Wash up. We've got training for the team in an hour. I'm not going to go easy on them. They're going to need you.

[He paused at the door, turned his head to look back at Keith.] You'll be there?

[tempredmental]

[Keith looked up to Shiro more than anyone else in his life. For a rowdy kid with a temper, staying in the Garrison had been hard, and Shiro had held him to it up until he disappeared from Kerberos. Keith didn't hold much respect for authority, which ended up with him washing out after Shiro was taken, but he was the only one that started out this Paladin journey calling Shiro, "sir". Shiro was a lot more than just a friend to him.

He only took a moment to answer, giving a small nod in response.]

Yeah. I'll be there.
