Oh, Keith, you can't think like that. [His concern overrides any feeling of awkwardness he had before, and certainly squashes down any jealousies he feels at the thought of Keith with someone else.] I know it's been far from a priority ever since everything happened, but...
But, you deserve to be with someone just as amazing as you are. And when it's someone you care about and who cares about you, too, who knows you and you're comfortable with? It'll be good, Keith. Anyone would-- [fff] I mean-- when you want that, the person you want to be with will be really lucky.
[K- kind of pauses, probably recognizing what he's saying and feeling embarrassed again, no matter how much he does feel this way. Whoever Keith falls in love with someday will be the luckiest person in the universe. Erm.]
... Then again, I've only ever had one major relationship and that blew up in my face. [L- laughs a little, self-deprecating.] So, you know, take any advice from me with many, many grains of salt.
[Sighs out, soft.] But that much I know is true. It'll be good for you, Keith. You deserve that.
