Who: Keith, Team Voltron, Open
Broadcast: To Team Voltron
Action: Huntress, Iskaulit, The Melting Pot
When: Varies
Happy Birthday (Late)
On the Huntress, as the Fleet leaves the system
[Keith found the crate in the cargo bay. Having seen what comes from these already, he was slightly concerned. Lance had gotten one for his birthday. He wasn't sure what to think about this. He stepped forward and, sure enough, it was for him.
He took a deep breath, glanced around to make sure he was alone, and then opened it.
...
Man... Keith was pretty sure he didn't want anyone to see this... which meant it was highly likely someone else on the ship was going to as he tried to figure out what to do with it.]
=====
Happy Late Birthday, the Party Edition
On the Iskaulit, two days after Friendsgiving
[Shiro and Lance had gotten permission from Jarvis to use the Melting Pot for a small birthday dinner for Keith. It was over a month late, but the cannibal race clearly didn't care about Keith's birthday. Now that things had calmed down, it was time to do something nice for their teammate. Respecting Keith's dislike for large, noisy parties, they'd gone the smaller "family dinner" type of event route.
Invited: Team Voltron, Huntress crew, Kirk, Kate, Sokka, Kaname, Freya, Luna, Arthur, Kitty, Vash, Prompto, Katie, Looma, Lumière, almost anyone who's had positive CR with Keith... if you're not sure, ask. Party crashers are cool, but antagonistic crashers will be escorted out.]
=====
Finding Space
On the Iskaulit, during the birthday party as Keith excused himself to the "bathroom" for a moment
[Keith had managed to get some time away from the party using the excuse that he needed a short break. He appreciated it, sure, but it was a little overwhelming to be the center of attention for this long. So, he headed out for a bit. He'd go back, but he needed some air... or space... or something.
He stepped into a small space he'd never noticed before. It was empty, but he'd been debating a few things for a while now, like how the team was split between different ships, and it would be nice for them to have a shared space to hang out. He took some time looking it over before heading back to the party. It seemed like a cool idea. He'd tell them after the party was over...]

Hey, guys... I found something on the Iskaulit last night I kind of wanted to show you. Mind meeting me there?

Decorating Lessons
On the Iskaulit, December 1
[So, for fun, since there wasn't much in the space, yet, anyway, and because Lance had gotten his hands on a bunch of Christmas decorations somehow, Team Voltron was decorating their new space. Mistletoe, anyone?
The space will eventually be private, but it's not hard to find, and the team welcomes friends, so feel free to stop by and watch them be silly with decorations!]

no subject
[He gives a shrug.]
I'm good. Can't complain.
[He nods to the "gift" with a grin.]
And sorry in advance. There was no time or place to nab a real present. I owe you a reasonably safe action adventure of your choice on the next not-horrible planet we land on.
no subject
[Keith considered it for a moment, and then smirked a little.]
That's a lot of qualifiers. I don't know if I can think of something with so many restrictions on it.
[Tease tease.]
Still, it's fine. This idea was all Shiro and Lance. I probably wouldn't have bothered. [He shrugged a little and then looked down at the envelope again.]
Should I open it now or wait?
no subject
[If not the next planet, then the next, or the next, provided they weren't all awful or didn't blow up or whatever.
Good friends were awesome.]
You can open it if you want. Or not. It's yours.
no subject
Alright.
[Keith felt a little weird opening it right away, but, at the same time, he didn't want to give the impression that it wasn't important. It wasn't like they had set up a gift table or something. The last two systems were really rough on them, and gift buying wasn't exactly something that Keith was expecting to have happened... especially because he didn't exactly broadcast that his birthday was coming up.
So, since he didn't have a place to put it right away, and he really didn't want to do a big spotlight-worthy gift opening session (please no), he decided to just open it there.]
Oh, hey... cool. These are from the wedding.
[The sparkler pictures actually came out really cool with the streaks of light. And then there were also the ones from when they'd gone skydiving. Keith smiled at those, too.]
That's awesome. Thanks.
no subject
That's a lot of inner exposition for opening an envelope.]
Yeah. They came out great. I should wrangle you into modeling for me more often.
no subject
[Keith looked suddenly embarrassed at the idea.]
Really?
no subject
no subject
Thanks...
[He'd never really considered it because, well, he hated being in the spotlight. What they did at the wedding was kind of a spur of the moment thing. And Keith had been focusing more on the idea of catching the streaks of light than actually being in a photo. It had been easy to get himself lost in the moment and not think about being the focus of Prompto's pictures.]
We'll see.
no subject
Sure. I won't be offended if you'd rather not, though. Don't worry about it.
no subject
Yeah. [He shrugged.] It's cool.
[He had to admit, though, the photos were really cool looking.]
I guess I'm just not usually one for being the center of attention, you know?
no subject
[He stopped worrying about how dumb he looked and just plastered on the biggest smile he could.]
no subject
I guess. I haven't tried it long enough to find out.
[But he still smiled anyway.]
Thanks, though. These came out cool. I appreciate it.
[That said, though, he should probably go be a good guest of honor and mingle more.]
Enjoy the party, okay?
