[He's starting to take notice more just how much of an effect the contact seems to have on him and though it leaves Keith a little uncertain if it's for better or worse, it also means he's all the more determined to hold onto his hand on the chance that it helps, to keep his arm around him. He's here. You've got him.]
Shiro, listen. The only monsters are the ones that ever dared to touch you and try to make you into something you'll never be. You're not Haggar's or anyone's weapon. Not now, not ever again.
[His passion in those words is entirely felt and more than he can convey. The topic of the others is all he can manage to curb it with, suddenly remembering too.]
You're right about Lance. He must've known. They... must be fine. [And if somehow, after all that, at least one of the two of them survived, Keith is just glad to have some possible confirmation that it was Shiro.] He said Allura's the one who was helping you.
Maybe... that's why it's like this. [His hand at Shiro's back skims up and touches the back of his head, his hair, lightly, tentative.]
