...Okay, admittedly no.

[businessinfront]

[ This? This is Keith trying and failing to hang onto the last tattered scrap of his dignity. ]

Shiro said you said it was a bonding exercise. I didn't get how, but he also said you'd get chore duty if you laughed at me.

[yablueit]

What? I wasn't laughing at you! It doesn't count!

[businessinfront]

There's no one else here!

[yablueit]

I was laughing cause I thought you were trying not to laugh at me!

[businessinfront]

Yeah, that sounds like me! Can't keep a straight face!

[yablueit]

It was funny for the exact opposite reason as that!

[businessinfront]

That's—

Why are you so confusing?!

[yablueit]

Why are you so confusing!

[businessinfront]

I make perfect sense!

[yablueit]

No you don't!

[businessinfront]

How did you think that was my trying not to laugh face?

[yablueit]

I thought you were trying to keep a straight face because of how hilarious we look, and because you were doing a better job of it than me!

[ Keith just gapes at Lance, mouth opening and closing like a landed fish. ]

. . . That's the stupidest thing I've ever heard.

[yablueit]

[ ...Actually, yeah, when he says it out loud, it is pretty stupid. ]

...No it isn't!

[businessinfront]

[ Keith's an honest judge of his own abilities, and he knows that one of the things he's worst at is keeping up any kind of poker face. ]

You really thought I looked like I was gonna laugh?

[yablueit]

...Well now I don't.

[businessinfront]

I thought it was important to you for some reason.

[yablueit]

Not really, I just thought it was funny.

[businessinfront]

[ This is another one of those moments, Keith is realizing, where he has no idea what's running through Lance's head. It doesn't make him feel less embarrassed, but some of the anger is being replaced by confusion. ]

[yablueit]

...The shirt doesn't look half bad on you, though.

[businessinfront]

What.

[yablueit]

I'm just saying! You look almost as good as I do!

[ He laughs and strikes a pose. But when you're 2% body fat 98% noodle, it's hard to rock a crop top. ]

[businessinfront]

[ Keith raises a slow, skeptical eyebrow, eyes traveling downward and then back up again. ]

[yablueit]

[ Lance's eyebrows are doing some impressive posing of their own. ]
