Yeah, I'm pretty glad there's no tests. That was enough the first go around. [That they can see. He knows how quickly a test can happen from life itself. Shiro holds up his hand in farewell until the door closes and Hunk's footsteps fade away. He turns and walks into his room, closing and locking the door behind him. Once he's in his space away from prying eyes he leans back against the wall and scrubs at his face. The storm of questions and emotions churn inside him like a hurricane. The world doesn't feel quite so stable under his feet.
One wrong step and he'll plunge straight down into the future that yawns frighteningly wide before him.
Keith found a distress signal you left in a Galra fighter.
He knows the Blades are good people. They would have told Voltron if they found him. That leaves only the empire. He drops his hand from his face to stare at his hands. It takes him a second to realize they're shaking. It's such a faint tremor that anyone else would miss it. Keith will leave for the Blades.
And he will behave completely unlike himself. He should be grateful that Hunk missed one possibility that should have been right there at the front of the lot. Instead he's worried. So very worried. Shiro drops his hands and stares at the ceiling without really seeing it.]
Witch... [He whispers and pushes away from the wall, grabbing a black journal from where it lays, flipping it open. There's nothing he can do from here. Nothing he can fix. Even the theory itself can't be confirmed. But he can start a report and lay out plans for how to take him down. If he's wrong he'll burn it. If he's right...
woo final taaag

He'll have done all he can.]
