[ Hunk's eyes, though they're forcing back tears, notice the step forward, the step back, the... the pause. Something's wrong. Hunk isn't sure if he's hit a sore spot from Shiro's past or what, but his eyes go wide, and his nerves prime him to spring into action, to do something, anything.
But then Shiro starts talking. And it's weirder than anything Hunk could've predicted. If this wasn't in the middle of them talking about nerves and fears and trust issues, he would've made a joke. He still wanted to, because he couldn't believe what he was hearing. ]
Shiro, you really... [ His eyes grow even wider, and Hunk just gasps. ] You really don't remember?
[ Sure, okay, he was gone and wasn't around for some of it, but... they filled him in. He needs to hear it again from Shiro. That this isn't just a bad joke, because that's his thing. But Shiro doesn't joke, not like this. If he's serious, if this is really happening?
It'll change the world as both of them know it. And Hunk's already preparing. ]
Everything that happened after that? There was a lot.
