[ text | un: keith - fail anon ]

[tempredmental]

[So, not being the tech genius that Pidge is, Keith's attempt at making this an anonymous text kind of failed... So, have fun, guys.]

So how do you apologize to your girlfriend for walking in on her in the bathtub?

[Keith's face was pretty bright red, too, and very sulky looking.]

So... you're not mad?

[heartofalioness]

[A shake of her head.]

I'm not mad.

[tempredmental]

[HUGE sigh of relief.]

Oh... good. Honestly, that was the main thing I was worried about. I kinda panicked. I don't really have a lot of experience with stuff like this... you know... relationships.

[heartofalioness]

I know. And you know me, and that I don't have much experience with this either. But this was a group of embarrassing but understandable mistakes back to back. Now we know to avoid making them again, yes?

[tempredmental]

Heh... [Sheepish smile.] Yeah. Definitely.

[He ran his hands through his hair.]

So, uh... is it safe to come back to the hotel room?

[heartofalioness]

[A soft chuckle.]

Yes, I'm currently dried and dressed.

[tempredmental]

[Another awkward chuckle, and Keith rubbed the back of his neck.]

Okay... I'm heading back. [He stood up from the bench in the hotel courtyard.] I'll be there in a bit.

[heartofalioness]

[There... by the time he gets back, Allura's finally unwinding the towel and brushing some conditioner through her curls.]

Come in.

[tempredmental]

[Keith entered kind of slowly. He looked really sheepish and embarrassed.]

Hey...

[heartofalioness]

[Aw Keith... She gets up and approaches him readily, pulling him into a hug.]

Next time I'll put on music so you can hear me.

[tempredmental]

Next time I'll remember to knock.

[Though, he wasn't going to turn down that hug. He needed it.]

[heartofalioness]

[There, she nuzzles his cheek as she holds him.]

I know you will. [She pauses nuzzling to press a soft kiss to his cheek.] It was a couple of simple mistakes, really. Next time you'll know better.

[tempredmental]

[He nodded.]

I will. I promise.

[heartofalioness]

[A soft sigh.]

Really, I'm more exasperated at all the people suggesting I punish you physically for that.

[tempredmental]

Eh-heh... [Yeah. That sure was a thing, wasn't it?] It was definitely a lot.

Makes me glad I'm with you and not with one of them.

[heartofalioness]

[Awww~]

I am glad I'm with you as well. [She pulls him in for another quick kiss on the lips.] And I promise I won't threaten you with castration or duels to the death or whatever corporal punishments those people cooked up.

[tempredmental]

[Keith laughed a bit nervously at the 'castration' comment.]

Thanks.

A duel to the death is kind of a bit much... isn't it?

[Though...]

Hm... part of me kind of wants to show them how crazy it is.

[heartofalioness]

[Oh? Oh...]

What did you have in mind, love?

[tempredmental]

There's no weapons here, but... I think I remember seeing a place that sold some of those large walking sticks for Hiker types.

[He smirked a little.]

Care for a spar on the beach?

[heartofalioness]

[That gets a dark chuckle out of her.]

You are positively wicked, love. [And it's clear she approves wholeheartedly.] Perhaps we should frame it as some "Altean dark age" ritual, or however Pidge phrased it.

[tempredmental]

[Oh. Well, then. If she was willing to go along with it... Keith grinned a little.]

That would actually be pretty hilarious to see people's reactions, wouldn't it?

I'm up for it if you are.

[heartofalioness]

That I am. Shall we go weapon shopping, then?

[tempredmental]

I don't know what we'll find in a place like this, but yeah... let's see what's out there. Maybe we can adapt something.

[He put his hand out to her in order to take hers.]
