[She has to hit him for the Lance Jr comment. She has to. Even though it does also make her cheeks color in embarrassment as she slaps him in the shoulder for it.] You're so gross.
[The way he answers her question worries her a bit, though. Lance isn't usually one to go the quiet route, and the way he averts his gaze has her chewing on the inside of her cheek. This is the part she's not good at. She hopes Hunk comes back to the room soon so they can all talk through whatever's going on. He knows how to be direct without being abrasive the way she tends to be.
But at least Pidge knows to answer his request. Fortunately there are plenty of water bottles in the room, mainly because Pidge and Hunk basically took shifts staying with Lance and that meant having a decent stockpile. She crawls out of the bed to retrieve one, taking that time to put her glasses on as well.]
..You were asleep for two weeks. So a little dehydration does make some sense.
Ow! Stop being so violent! You don't hit those you miss!
[But really, he wouldn't take Pidge any other way right now. Especially with the fact that back home, he wasn't even giving her a second look the way he does now. There, Lance only had eyes for Allura. Here, however, he still cares for her but certainly not in the way he cares for Pidge (and Hunk) nowadays.]
Two weeks? Shit.
[How long was Keith down for? A week, tops, right? He's sure Keith had way more to catch up on that he did, but why did it take Keith less time to do so? Did it really make that much of a difference? Probably not, but still, two weeks here, a year there. Still wasn't enough time spent reconnecting with his family or getting used to the realization that everything he knew (including himself at one point) was now decimated thanks to the Galra.
Also this means two weeks without a shower either and when Pidge's back is turned, he lifts and arm to sneak a sniff of his armpits. Ripe, but not exactly as terrible as Lance expected. He's sure the rest of him isn't quite up to par and he needs a mirror to make sure.]
