[For the offer, for this, for... everything he's done for Keith so far.]
I don't think I'm in much of a position to keep training right now, though. [It's a comment made to lighten up the situation, just a touch, though after he says it, he pauses again, the atmosphere dropping once more as another thought makes its way to the front of his mind.]
I don't want to stop being your shinki. [Not even for a moment has he really thought that, despite the fact that he was never planning on it in the first place. He likes how well they manage to work together, having someone as reliable as Shiro to look to, and the team they've built is a good one. However...] If I ask another god to name me too, would you be okay with that?
[For a while he'd been considering it anyway, with all he's been through, having that kind of safety net just strikes him as a smart idea. Shiro can't control who this place keeps around any better than Lance could, and while the idea of planning on 'in case he loses Shiro too' is pretty upsetting, if he's already being open and honest right now... why not see what he thinks about it?]
