[ At the suggestion that Keith should be the leader, Hunk just smiles weakly and gestures towards a chair. This could be... a lot. ] You should... you should sit down for this, Shiro.
[ And Hunk waits a moment to give Shiro a chance to react accordingly. If he wanted to stand, that's on him. Hunk, meanwhile, hesitates. Interacting with people from past Earths, like Makoto and Adrien, didn't cause some kind of time paradox. But that could be from different Earths in different universes. This was Shiro, and this was definitely the Shiro from his universe. Is this... is this conversation safe? ]
Keith was the Black Paladin for a while. [ Hunk wholly dodges the part where their buddy had some struggles getting used to his role. That'll make this even harder for Shiro. ] But you came back, and he went to focus on his Blade of Marmora training.
[ And then he hesitates again. This is definitely his Shiro from his universe. He's not, like, Swedish. Is this where he went while he was gone? If so... what happened to him to make him get so angry sometimes? So reckless? Was... it this conversation? The fact that he knew what was supposed to happen? That he couldn't tell his teammate, who went through all this with him? ]
So you had Black, Lance had Red, Pidge and I kept Green and Yellow, and Allura took Blue. She's a great Paladin.
[ And Hunk waits for a reaction to register. Maybe he has questions. Anything would be better than this hesitation and worry and fear about whether he's making a mistake by trusting his teammate, his friend. So he takes a deep breath, tries his hardest to cram all those negative emotions in a box, to silence every wailing siren of anxiety. Shiro deserves to know. ]
