[ she's assuming that keith's had it rough. when he takes a little while to reply, she worries that she's overstepped her boundaries. she starts typing up an apology when he replies. ]
I hope I don't put either of you through it, either. [ she thinks about what to say next; again, she's worrying about overstepping her boundaries, but... ]
I know we've only just met, but both of you are important to me. And I'll do everything in my power to keep you safe.
[No apologies expected - and it’s probably for the best to delay letting her fall into the habit of apologizing for a little longer.
The sentiment is a little unexpected in it’s raw sincerity, and the pause in his reply this time mostly comes from trying to digest it.]
I’ll do the same for you, and for Shiro. We’re a team, so we have to watch each other’s backs as often as we can. Don’t hesitate to let me know if you ever need any help.
[ she's surprised when her sincerity is returned, but she's glad for it. he'd already earned her loyalty when they first formed a team, but his text solidifies it. she smiles as she replies to him. ]

I'll keep that in mind. I appreciate it, Keith.
Thank you.
