[The video started with a shot of the now open hangar roof in Temba, then turned around to face Keith, who looked rather confused and mildly concerned.]

Hey, uh... guys? Anyone get a notice that we might be leaving? I just checked the ships, and they're ready to fly... at least, the Bloodsport is. But, I didn't get a notice or anything that we were supposed to be going anywhere. Also, it looks like they're only able to take us over to that new place where the train goes. It's the only destination I can put in.

I know you would. [Keith gave Lance a small smile.] And I appreciate that.

But I don't want you to push things to the point of losing yourself just because you think it'll make me happy. I'm with you because you're you. That makes me happy. [Keith nuzzled Lance a bit.]

I want you to be happy, too. But I don't want you to be happy about all kinds of things, not only because I'm happy.

Okay. I... Okay.

[He has a point, of course. It's just difficult to get past his own securities, and a nagging voice that's always been there telling him that he's not good enough, that he needs to change himself.]

I love you.

that was an awkward typo... that 'don't' in the last sentence shouldn't be there... /sob/

[tempredmental]

I love you, too.

[He gave him a small kiss.]

The real you. You're a good person, Lance. And, yeah, you're a little doofy sometimes, [He smirked.] but that's part of what makes you who you are. And I love all of you. Okay?

[Now if Keith could only get something like that through his own head in regards to certain things he worried about in regards to himself...]

It's okay! I got what you meant lol

[the_tailor]

[As always, he can't resist returning that kiss.]

Thanks. Sometimes I just really need to hear that. And...you're just, amazing, y'know? I think I know most of you inside and out at this point, and I love every bit of you. My Keith.

Whew!

[tempredmental]

[Keith managed a small smile at that.]

Your Keith... [Honestly, knowing that, even with his own issues controlling his temper and anxiety, Lance accepted all of that was a huge help. Way more important than Lance not teasing him.] I think I can live with that. But that means I can call you 'my Lance'.

[the_tailor]

I've been your Lance for a long, long time now. So please. Feel free to call me that. Feel more than free.

[He takes Keith's hand, pressing a little kiss to his palm.]

[tempredmental]

[Keith smiled softly, only pulling his hand free long enough to wrap his arms around Lance's shoulders and pull him in close. He pressed his face against his fiance's neck, closing his eyes and sighing deeply through his nose.]

I guess I have to now. [He hugged him tight, slipping a little kiss against the bare skin near Lance's ear.]
