drops of jupiter.
[ so that was a lot, especially since it was keith’s first time coming face-to-face with a commander. he knows everyone must be tired and emotionally drained, but they have a lot of things they need to talk about. things that can’t wait to be sorted out. he has to collect his thoughts first, though--he’s not sure how to feel about this exactly, but he knows he’s feeling a lot of things. keith needs time to process everything, and he goes off to be alone for a little while.
eventually, michael, kayneth, ignis, camilla, and bucky bring over some food for the gang. it’s a much needed meal, and maybe some people want to eat in peace. unfortunately, keith is keith, and he thinks now is the best time to have a discussion. ]
Look, I know I’m not in the best position to say this, especially after how I acted back there. But unless anyone has any better ideas, we need to go to that lake and see the Guardian. We have to try. If that’s part of the solution to saving these people and going back home, then there’s really no other option.
[ he’s saying this with a calm head this time. he’s frustrated, clearly, but he’s speaking firmly and with nowhere near the same aggression he held earlier, back when he wanted to attack jupiter.
he doesn’t believe that he can be the leader anyone needs him to be. not here, not back at home. but it’s not going to stop him from trying to do what he feels is right. ]
And if we need someone to scope it out before we act, then I’ll do it.

[Remind him again how many grunts there were?]
A-Anyway...I actually do want to fight Jupiter one-on-one, if things end up that way...
[Really, now.]
no subject
[By restoring at least parts of their free will, is what he means. You could also read that as "let's murder all the grunts" though.]
Do you? You're stammering.
[1/2]
[That...sounds like a tall order to him...Really.]
Y-yes! I mean, I know this kind of thing I'm saying is scary and all, but, uh...
[He still looks nervous, but somehow his tone...it has more resolve.]
I think...I want to prove something to her. And to myself. [That he can get stronger. That even if he loses, he's still...he's still someone who can face down anything.
no subject
I-I mean, if I lose, you guys can totally swarm her or something! That's not off the table...
no subject
Alright. I'll keep that in mind.
We should do more regular battle training. All of us, don't you think? I know we fell off while dealing with that frozen nightmare, that makes sense, but it seems better here.
no subject
[Actually, now that you mention training...]
Maybe...group training? [He laughs a bit while he waves his hands.]
Like...in football, all the players, we have very different skills, right? But if we don't practice together at team practice, we won't really be able to, um...work together right?

[He grins a little at the thought.]
They might surprise us!
Monnn?
[Sena looks down at where Monta was happily helping himself to Michael's treats, goggling at the now very empty plate. When did he eat all-?!]
S...surprise...
no subject
[Pray that Monferno doesn't evolve into a gorilla or something]
no subject
Hopefully, he'll have calmed down a little by then?
[Hahahaha.
No.]
