[ something's definitely wrong. something he can't put a finger on. he's more concerned than distressed, picking up on just about everything keith practically broadcasts. their previous reunions were intense, but never with this added layer that keith doesn't let on.
keith looks at him like he's beyond ravenous, like he's reached a whole new level and pretty much ventured into sad, like he hasn't seen him in years, not months, which makes absolutely no sense. and yet here he is, taller than him, broader than before and scarred in so many places.
his hands come to smooth over his biceps, stroking over the scars that don't seem all that fresh (and yet not old enough). noctis has never seen them before, and he trusts his own assessment; there is not one inch of keith that noctis hasn't hungrily pursued, pressed his lips to and lavished attention on.
his arms wrap around him now, holding him tight like he'd drifted too far a little too long, his own heart revving up in response to that silent distress. ]
Puppy. [ he says softly, pressing soft kisses to his ear as his eyelids flutter shut. he's breathing him in; this body hasn't known noctis, but they can fix it, later. first, noctis has to tend to everything keith keeps locked away, right in his mind. ] Are you okay?
