Broadcast: No
Action: Huntress, Iskaulit
When: From today until the end of the drift period (Sept 25)

=====

Sept 19 - 22

[SURPRISE... Keith was small again. Except... this time? He didn't remember the Fleet. He's not as young as last time, either. There was some panic and angry lashing out at a few people to start, but, once he settled down, he started to explore.

He stuck mostly to the Huntress and the Iskaulit. He'd look familiar to anyone who knew Keith, really, and especially to those who had seen him de-aged last time (though he was a bit older than before). However, be prepared for grumpy stares and lack of trust. Keith was not trusting by nature thanks to how things went for him after his dad died. Adults were especially the bane of his existence.

Care to meet a young emo teen? He might have just pick-pocketed you.]


=====

Sept 23 - 25

[Keith stalked along the corridor, his paws padding softly on the metal floor. He'd woken up as a panther, but he wasn't going to just stay put in his room until it wore off. It was annoying, because he didn't have hands and he couldn't speak to anyone. It also meant he couldn't do his assigned job, either.

So, he was trying to pass the time by strolling around the Iskaulit. He was relying on others to get him back and forth between ships, and had gotten Lance to help him over there that morning so he could jog around the ship with Shiro for their normal routine. Granted, a panther jogging with a man that had dog ears and a tail wasn't exactly normal, but here they were.

It was hard to resist the catlike traits and something at the edge of his peripheral vision shifted, getting his attention. He froze, his tail twitching sharply, before suddenly dashing off down the hall.

Look out, passerby! That panther is about to run you over!]

[Sigh.]

When you're older, we're dating. That's why you woke up in the same bed as me. Don't worry, there is going to be absolutely no funny business while you're young like this, that is so not my thing. But... Yeah. That's, um, how it is.

We did. It took a while, and it only happened when we got here, but. That's the state of us. Me and older you.

Life's weird.

[He sighs, rubbing at his face.]

I'm alright. Things have just been a little rough lately. And I know even if you tell me you can handle yourself, I'm still worried about you. I guess I always am, with what you mean to me.

[He gives an odd smile.]

Sorry, I didn't mean to push that on you or anything. I don't ask for anything from you now except to just try to give us a chance.

Yeah, yeah, I know. You don't have to thank me, also, okay? Nothing's going to stop me from being concerned about you. It's as natural to me as breathing.

I mean, I think so. I'd really hope so. The older you, um, I think I make him really happy, so...

[He gives a little shrug.]

But for now? I'm here to help you with whatever you need. We're not boyfriends yet, obviously, but I'd like to be your friend, if you'll allow me to try.
