Summary
“Where does it hurt?”
Keith doesn’t elaborate, and Shiro doesn’t ask him to. Just raises his prosthetic hand in a loose fist and lets it fall sluggishly on his own chest where he guesses his heart is hidden.
Two times. Here. It hurts here.
Keith doesn’t say anything. He doesn’t reach up to wipe the tears from his face. He props himself up on an elbow and leans down to first lay a dry kiss to Shiro's chest, and then lay his soft, heavy head. His ear pressed over Shiro’s plaintive heart where it slowly beats on through the night.
TL;DR communication is easy, healing is hard

Summary
Idling through space in their self-imposed night, the Black Lion is almost silent and almost still, but Keith can feel the hum of it in his bones, like breathing. Like his pulse.
Louder is the breathing across the narrow quarters in the Lion’s belly. The occasional sniff, the occasional cough, and the all too frequent sound of Shiro shifting and turning on the thin cot that’s the twin of Keith’s own. The sound of Shiro sleeping is conspicuous in its regularity, and right now it’s too irregular for him to be sleeping.
Keith isn’t one to comment. They’re in the same boat.

Summary
Life is short, and third chances are improbable, even with a man like Keith at your side. The war isn’t over, and Shiro doesn’t want to see the end of it without telling him he’s everything. He can’t think of a single reason not to anymore, and he already can’t take it back. There’s a scab on Keith’s knee and his fingernails are bitten short and sweat shines on his throat. Shiro wants to be consumed by him.

Summary
Keith swims in this— this image that could be pulled directly out of Keith’s earliest memories of Shiro; gentler though, than the powerful currents that he’s been struggling against. Keith’s chest squeezes in familiar ache, an enduring, whole body feeling. Shiro.

A oneshot about Keith revisiting the desert cabin where he spent a year without Shiro.

Summary
No one joins him. Not Allura. Not Shiro.
Keith looks into the emptiness of space and only sees himself.
He sees the endless black and wishes it would come for him, tear out his throat, take his sorrow with it. No one was meant to hold this much grief within them.
In which Shiro and Keith heal their friendship, the Paladins work through their grief, and they all find their way back to each other. PIcks up right after when they say goodbye to Allura in Season 8. Not epilogue-compliant.
