[ yeah lance has mostly forgotten about the psychic link thing, too busy running his tongue curiously over all those ridges and fleshy little bumps (what would that feel like inside him? what would it feel like when shiro came?) but he gets with the program when he feels keith start pushing memories, images, and emotions through the link. they're kissing, he and shiro, and that's hard for him to watch so he doesn't, he concentrates entirely on teasing the huge, alien dick in his mouth, treating it as reverently as keith had treated shiro in the memories.
keith's hand slides through his hair and lance wants to still be annoyed at him, but instead he reaches up to twine his fingers with keith's, his other hand on shiro. it feels right for the three of them to be connected. he's under no illusions about what's probably going to happen once they rescue shiro, they'll all go back to their original lions (maybe?) and shiro and keith will go back to being weird and intense about each other, and lance will be the odd man out again. keith won't need him when he has shiro back and lance... will get to have the memories of both of them as a consolation prize, the brief relationship he'd had with keith and the terrible, aching vastness of how much keith loves shiro.
(maybe lance is a little in love now too, as a side effect, but there's nothing any of them can do about that. he's just borrowing the emotion. he doesn't have the connection to shiro that keith does, just the echo of it.)
none of that's going to stop this from happening, though. they need shiro back. if there's anything he pushes into the link it's that, not the jealousy or insecurity. ]
