Lance is here. Keith can feel it even before he hears his approach, even before the wind brings the not entirely unfamiliar scent of the other wolf with it. Good. This can end now before it festers, before it makes things difficult for anyone else.
He stands beside Shiro, watching as Lance comes into view. He keeps his eyes fixed on the other man, watching him and trying to decide what to make of him. The pack bonds, as far as he can tell, are strong. Between everyone. So for all that Lance has decided to be an ass in his direction, he knows he matters to the rest of the pack, knows there's more to him than the pride and the drama.
Keith is ready to step forward, to put himself in Lance's space, but then Shiro is speaking and Keith's eyes widen, startled and caught off guard. But his gaze finally leaves Lance to gaze over at Shiro, his entire expression warming, looking at the other man like Shiro has just finished hanging the moon and stars in the sky. The wolf in him agrees. 'Mine. Mate.'
That thought gets shelved for later as he turns back to Lance. "We're going to settle this. Now." The words are spoken low and level, only the faintest hint of a growl in his voice. "Whatever problems you have with me, this goes beyond you and me. The good of the pack is more important." If Lance wants to force a fight, force a confrontation, Keith is more than ready to meet the challenge.
