Welcome to Awkward Sudden Hugs with Allura Part 2.

...with you still inside.

[There's an unmasked sadness to her tone, expression still soft, heavy with understanding but also a quiet despair in now knowing what Keith's fate had been ticks away from before Lotor's arrival. She has one hand up to her chest, hand balled into a fist as she presses it against her heart, and she's quiet for a good long while letting this all sink in for her.

Self-sacrifice is hardly unknown to her. She had healed the Balmera not knowing if she would live through the ritual. She knows in his shoes she'd have done the same to protect the ones she loved. But...

What she had said to him in the past echoes at the back of her mind, of how the team cannot go on without him. And in knowing that they almost had been without him...

She broaches the distance between them, wrapping her arms around him and pulling him into a hug.

Keith, I had no idea that was what you had been planning to do. [What happened at Naxzela still haunts her. It was the closest they've ever been to...

She shuts her eyes.

I am so glad you are still with us.
