Keith doesn't know what to make of that. It's still a dodge, it's still far from the answer. And shouldn't it be simple, just a matter of stating the facts of whatever had happened once his memory blurs out. Then again, no, he doesn't think it's that simple, somehow.
He sees the way Shiro's breath changes, the shift in his demeanor, and before Keith realizes what he's doing, he's stepping forward, intending to set a hand against the other man's shoulder. Touching isn't usually something he does with any ease or regularity, but somehow it felt right. Still feels right. "Are you okay?"
The next words send his heart tripping over itself in its race to beat faster. Not the only one. Shiro's experienced this too? Is that even possible? Maybe that's why he remembered him, felt drawn to him? Some shared ground that on some subliminal level he recognized?
He falls back into step with Shiro. "Twenty-one. And... I don't think so."
