[Lance looks...well. Like he hasn't quite slept well for a few days. There's a big bag of candy next to him, though a good chunk of it is already gone. The candy wrappers in the background by his bed tell enough of what's happened to them.]

So. Uh. That masquerade! Yeah, that was a heck of a time. It was great to meet so many of you there. Nothing like a good old party to bring people together, right?

[He pauses. Looks thoughtful. Pops another piece of candy in his mouth.]

Those masks were...really something. Some of them were magic, weren't they? Yeah, that was...fascinating. And stuff.

[Another piece of candy.]

...My stomach hurts.

[That's admitting it enough, really. Hunk nods, yep. He agrees.]

Yeah, sounds like it. But, look... if he's really, really weird over it, just explain that you weren't sure what you were doing. that you didn't mean to upset him, and that this place is major crazy sometimes. I mean, man, I have a rock that lives in a ball and is awesome. I can completely believe as mask tried to make you two kiss.

But... [he reached out and pressed his fist to the others knee, a small bump, being serious.] If we know Keith at all, he's not mad at you. the world isn't upside down, just a bit sideways.

[Lance takes a deep breath. It's going to take some time to sort through all of this. He's thought about it before, but never considered it to be an actual possibility. And now? With how close it was?

The one thing he can admit, though, is that he feels better after Hunk's talk to him. Lance nods before launching right into a tight hug.]

Hunk. I seriously, seriously don't know what I'd do without you.

[bigman]

[Let's be honest here. Hunk wouldn't be HALF as out going as he was with out Lance. He would have been that good student that did nothing bad and... might not have gotten too far for it. Or so he'll continue to tell himself.]

[When the other latched into a hug he was only surprised for a moment, and then looped his arms around the Blue Paladin and best friend, giving him a warm, tight hug. Mostly he though the other just really needed it.]

I know. You'd be lost without me. [He said with a smile and a squeeze, then spoke softer.] Someone's got to be your voice of reason.
