Day by day....

[Keith echoes. And okay that makes some sense, but he's never been good at that kind of focus, too restless, too wild. Patience yields focus. That's what Shiro had cautioned him again and again, and while he repeated that mantra often, it was still difficult for him.]

I don't know how good I'll be at that. But I can try.

[bufudyne]

Saying that you shall try is as important as doing.

[Yusuke tells him quite seriously... very solemn boy at times, this one.] When it gets to be too much, we can always spar, can we not?

[you know, work out the frustration and shit]

[lonered]

Is it?

[Because Keith isn't sure that's true. He tries a lot. He does. But he still fucks things up beyond all recognition more often than not. Despite his best efforts and intentions.

He manages a smile though.] Yeah. I'd like that. A lot.

[A good distraction, yes.]

[bufudyne]

It is. Even to try and fail. That is how people are.

[And after a pause...]

You are my important friend. I would like to share in what you feel, if only in part.

[HE CARES KEITH also he's tuckered so there's nothing inhibiting his words today. Not like there is usually anyway...]

[lonered]

[Keith... doesn't know how to handle such frank and serious words like that! Emotions and him are not the easiest of things to mix, and he hesitates for a moment.]

Yusuke...

[Jeez. Okay] That's... I mean. Me too. You too. You're important to me. I'm glad I met you. I'm... glad we're friends.

[There. He tried. He really really tried.]

[bufudyne]

[Yusuke's expression brightens into a contented smile and he nods in thanks.]

I am as well. Thank you, Keith.

[TRYING: IT WAS SUPER EFFECTIVE.]

[lonered]

[Oh thank god it wasn't an awkward mess that made Yusuke regret saying nice things, right?

Keith even offers a little smile of his own.]

Yeah. I mean. You're welcome?
