#fuck keith leaving ❤️

[autisticlancemcclain]

“You’re not going.”

Keith picks his head up from the table. “Huh?”

“To the Blades,” Lance clarifies, chopping up something that looks like a bright pink potato and throwing it in a rapidly boiling pot in what Keith would call an aggressive manner. “You’re not going.”

“…I didn’t say I was.”

He didn’t. He didn’t mention anything about the Blades to any living soul. Like, yeah, he had made the decision and was going to, but.

There’s no reason Lance should know that.

“Good, then, because I took your uniform — which looks like a slutty catsuit, by the way, just so you’re aware — to the incinerator last night. It’s ash now.”

Keith stares at his best friend, jaw dropped, hands resting limply on the edge of the dining table, because — huh? pardon? what happened?

“Whatever identity crisis you’re having can happen here,” Lance adds, shaking some spices into the boiling pot and stirring it a couple times. He dips in a spoon, brings it up to his lips, then makes a face. “Here, try this.”

He marches over to where Keith has been moping as he makes dinner and shoves a spoon into his gaping mouth. Keith chokes, hot stew making its merry way down his trachea, eyes watering and chest heaving.

“A little too salty,” he rasps.

Lance scowls. “Fuck. I knew it. Gotta add more barbie potatoes.” He turns down the heat, grabbing more potatoes from the sack and busying himself with peeling them. Slowly, as he recovers from the fear of his actual lungs collapsing in on themselves, Keith stands, hesitantly approaching Lance and reaching for a knife to chop what he peels.

“So,” he starts.

Lance ignores him.

But Keith is used to this dynamic. It’s either this or flipped. Friends or not, if there’s one thing they can’t do it’s use their big boy words. So he carries on.

“I take it you…don’t want me to go, then.”

Lance grunts. “Oh, look, the caveman has room in his skull for a brain after all.”

“Uncalled for,” Keith says, scowling. “I am not the one who’s refusing to communicate right now.”

The corner of Lance’s mouth twitches upwards.

Score. Point to Keith.

“Obviously I don’t want you to leave, you stupid dumbass,” Lance admits finally. He wrestles the chopped roots out of Keith’s hands and practically dunks them in the pot, turning the heat back up. Keith smears his starch covered hands on his shirt in revenge (and then wisely takes three quick and giant steps back, well out of backhanding range).

“But there are too many paladins,” Keith points out. “You said it yourself.”

Lance grabs a dishtowel, twisting it menacingly in his hands. Keith tries not to think about the scar he knows Hunk has from when Lance snapped a towel at him when they were kids, wrestling in the McClains’ kitchen. He fails.

“Do you actually have any braincells left in your head at all?”

“Yes, jackass. That’s why I did the math. I leave and the numbers add back up. Problem solved.”

“You leave and Voltron falls apart,” Lance snaps. “So maybe crunch those numbers again.”

Keith stills. Lance steps towards him, still glaring, still menacing, but he doesn’t move — he holds Lance’s gaze, searching his dark eyes, looking for the words he isn’t saying. Because Keith…Keith isn’t the one holding Voltron together. There was a reason his heart caught in his throat when Lance came to him downtrodden and talked about being a seventh wheel. There’s a reason his duffel is packed, a reason he’s talked to Kolivan. He knows who needs to step aside.

“You just don’t get it,” Lance says, frustrated. He takes another step.

“You talk to us about teamwork all the time.”

Another step.

“You’re favourite thing to whine about is the bonding moment.”

Another step, this time as he pitches his voice high and mocking, flapping his hands.

“You never shut up about training as a group.”

One final step and he’s toe to toe, shoes to boots, nose to nose. Keith realises, startlingly, that they’re the exact same height, now.

“We are a crew, imbécil. Team, group, boyband. Whatever you wanna call it. All for one and one for all. The whole nine yards, all that cheesy bullshit.” He pokes Keith hard in the chest. “You don’t get to ditch.”

“But it makes more sense,” Keith argues, weakly and half-desperately. “We only have so many resources. If I can be useful at the Blades —”

“Fuck the fucking Blades.”

Keith deflates. His hand comes up to stop Lance’s jabbing finger, curling around his knuckles. Lance softens, slightly.

“I just want to be as useful as I can be.”

“And if you’re enough as you are?” Lance asks quietly.

Keith opens his mouth, but stops, automatic I’m not dying in his throat. For the first time in his life, it doesn’t seem like the truth, with the determined set to Lance’s jaw and the sliding of their fingers together, gripping tightly.

“Then I guess I’m staying,” Keith breathes.

Lance nods. “Good.”

Keith notices his hands are kind of clammy. His forehead, too, is a little sweaty. The air between them feels hot. Keith swallows.

“Your stew is on fire,” he croaks, voice rough.

Lance drops his hand, cursing.

“Oh — por amor de dios, hablas en fucking serio —”

———

At dinner, Keith eats his burnt stew without a word of complaint. When Lance drags him to the sink to help clean up, after, even though it’s not his turn, he goes, and he lingers too close and too long, and he’s grateful that the duffel he packed to leave home for good is laid emptied on his bed when he turns in for the night.

[girlboypersonthingy]

Hiya!! Love your work so much😆

I was wondering if you’d write something where the paladins (especially keith hehe) have to go to a formal event like a gala to bring the coalition together (??) and how they’d ask y/n to be their date and/or how they’d react to y/n in their formal attire?? (maybe even add Matt too if you feel inspired) Thank youuu 🫶

Brooooo stoooppppp I am so weak for this idea holy shit 😩 And you are my first non anon request so THANKS FRIEND 🥹 I went with my three fav paladins 💙❤️💚AND Mattie boy 🧡Also I love writing with emojis, sorry not sorry. ENJOY DARLING~

KEITH ❤️

OH MY GOD POOR LITTLE SHY BABY BOY

He waits until the last minute to ask you, let’s be honest. Like a day before the event, he’s sitting beside you in the training room, trying to catch his breath when he goes “So that thing tomorrow. Wanna go together?” And you’re like 😏 “Are you asking me to be your date?” And now he’s like 🙄 “Shut up before I change my mind.”

It’s silent for a second but he’s staring at you. “So, are you gonna answer my question?” “Yes, Keith. I’ll be your date to the gala.” And he’s bright red in the face now.

He tries to act all cool and mysterious as you both leave the training deck and go opposite ways. As soon as you’re out of sight, he’s SPRINTING to Lance’s room.

“HELP I HAVE A DATE AND I DONT KNOW HOW TO ROMANCE!!!” 😰

He’s so fucking annoyed as he spends hours trying to memorize and properly recite pick up lines to Lance as practice.

He also totally does not steal a bottle of cologne from Lance’s bathroom before he leaves.

The morning of, he finds Shiro for wardrobe assistance. Big brother Shiro totally cleans Keith up, giving him a more semi-formal look. Keith thinks he’s too cool for a coat and tie. Shiro also convinces Keith to pull his hair back into a low pony tail.

He decides he’s just too nervous to meet you at your room so he kinda just sits on his bed for a while, fully dressed and smelling great and waiting for you.

Finally you step into his open door way, instantly catching his attention. He stands quickly, almost stumbling over his own feet as he approaches you, admiring your look for the evening.

“OH WOW. Oh…Uh…sorry. You look really nice.” You look so nice he’s stressed out about it like wtf why are you so gorgeous? He thinks you’re sooooo far out of his league.

“I like your hair pulled back like that.” You smile at him and he thinks he might just spontaneously combust rn.

He keeps his arm linked with yours as you walk together to the front of the castle where all the guests are.

Once there, you mostly hang out together or with the other paladins. You’re both kind of shy and you find comfort in being together. You’re like the two emo kids at prom who just stand against the wall and complain about the lame music.

At some point, you two disappeared from the party. Allura and Shiro are like Hello? Where did they go? Shiro wanders outside to look for you only to find you both laying on your backs in the grass right outside the castle’s front entrance, staring up at the sky. He smiles as he hears you laughing at something Keith said.

“Im serious! Lance told me to say ‘even in zero gravity, I’d still fall for you’.” “BOOOOO that’s a terrible line!” You laugh up to the dark night sky.

His hand moves slowly to the side until it meets yours. When you feel the touch, you link your pinky finger with his and look over at him. He’s still staring up at the stars as a smile grows across his face.

He was so worried about disappointing you tonight, he just wanted to charm you. But he didn’t need pick up lines or fancy clothes to make you smile. Just being his normal self seemed to make you happy.

LANCE 💙

You guessed it…Lance is going all out for you.

The morning that they are told about it from Allura, he’s literally interrupting the whole meeting to ask you to be his date.

Freaking cheese ball gets down on one knee, takes your hand and kisses the back of it softly. When he looks up at you, he’s got that flirty smirk on his thin lips. “Would you, (Y/N), make me the happiest man in the universe and be my date to the coalition gala?”

You: 😍🥵🤭

Lance: 😘😏😎

Everyone else: 🤢🫣🙄

Obvi, you say yes with dreamy eyes and a goofy smile on your face.

You thought it was cute that he asked you even though you’ve been dating for a while now. You just assumed you’d be going together anyways. What a sweet boy~

While you’re feeling fine about the whole thing, Lance is freaking out. He’s digging through his clothes looking for something fancy to wear, he’s doing double face masks, he’s forcing Pidge to smell different colognes and help him pick the best one, he’s practicing his slow dance AND his salsa skills. Keep in mind, the gala isn’t for another week but he needs to get prepared NOW!

“There’s not even gonna be music, idiot. It’s a gala, not prom. When are you two even gonna have the chance to do the lift from dirty dancing?” “SHUT UP, PIDGE! IT’LL HAPPEN!!!”

He just wants to impress you so bad. It’s his top priority at the moment.

The night of the event, he’s freshly showered, dressed for the gods, smelling like a whole bath and body works and he’s sitting in your room keeping you company while you get ready.

“Lance, the gala doesn’t start for another 4 hours. Why are you- nevermind. Forget it. You look great.” And he gets so excited at the compliment.

He watches as you get ready. He’s not as talkative as he usually is.

“You okay?” He nods with a dopey grin on his face. He’s just admiring you, that’s all. A compliment leaves his mouth like every 5 minutes as you continue to get all dolled up.

He follows along side you all the way there, his hand is in yours and it’s SWEATY. He’s so nervous.

Once you’re there, his attention span is that of a gold fish. He’s so excited and chatty and asking people questions and he never fails to introduce you to everyone…every single person…S E P A R A T E L Y. He just wants to brag.

“This fine little honey right here…yeah, all mine. I know what you’re thinking, how’d I get so lucky? I ask myself that every day.” What a sap omfg

He notices you’re looking less than happy, kind of tired. Your social battery is at like 5%. He can tell you need a break.

As you’re standing beside Allura, listening to her talk to an ally of the coalition, Lance grabs your hand and pulls you away. You’re running behind him just to keep up with his long legs.

“Where are we going?” “You’ll see.”

THIS MF SET UP FAIRY LIGHTS AND MUSIC AND CANDLES IN HIS ROOM. BRO IS LITERALLY SUCH A HOPELESS ROMANTIC I CANT DEAL WITH IT. That’s why he came to your room so early. He didn’t wanna risk you coming in to his room and seeing everything.

You might think this is so extra but if Lance is anything, it’s extra. He takes any chance he can to make you smile and feel special. He’s so sweet, it’s disgusting.

“I just really wanna dance with you, (Y/N)…” “You did all this…for me?” He nods with a shy smile, bitting his lip as he watches for your reaction. You’re over the moon, your smile uncontrollable now.

So you dance together for a couple songs. He gently caresses your back as he sways with you, occasionally letting his hands roam to your hips. At this point, his cheeks hurt from how hard he’s smiling. It’s cute and sweet and innocent and you’ve never loved him more.

PIDGE 💚

LMAO PIDGE WILL NOT EVEN ASK YOU.

Bc they’re too shy for that romantic shit.

They’re like “Who else would they go with? I’m not worried.”

They assume y’all are going together bc you’re obviously more than just friends.

They will get dressed up nice for you tho. They know everyone else will be dressed up too but they secretly WANT to make you swoon over them. Like plz feed their ego.

They actually go to Hunk for help with their wardrobe. Hunk is the best wingman to ever exist, change my mind. Also, they are really unsure whether they want to wear something more masculine or more feminine and they really trust Hunk with the topic of their gender identity.

“Hey, you guys ready?” You pop into Hunk’s room, all dressed up and ready to go.

“Almost! Hunk is just helping me with the zipper on-“ Once Pidge lays eyes on you, the little gears in their head stop completely. It’s like everything else faded away as they looked you up and down. You’re so angelic, wow oh wow.

“Aww, Pidge! You look stunning.” Aaaaand you broke them. You’re gonna have to turn them off and restart them.

“Uh yeah, you’re good now.” Hunk assures and nudges Pidge back to reality. “Go.” He whispers as he ushers them to move towards you.

You walk together in complete silence, your arm linked with theirs. Finally, they speak up first.

“Are you nervous?” “Yeah, are you?” “Yeah…” “I hate parties.” “Me too.”

So together you devise a plan: you’re gonna sneak around and pull silly little pranks on people and just eat all the food you can get your grubby little hands on.

And you do exactly that. You’re both having so much fun! You’re laughing so hard you’re snorting. You’re far from nervous now.

Pidge is the best at breaking you out of your shell and making you feel comfortable. You can be your true, authentic self around them. They are your best friend first and your ✨partner✨ second.

After a while, you two sneak off to their room to play video games. The food was good and the pranks were hilarious but you had both had enough.

As soon as the door shuts behind you, you’re both ripping off your uncomfortable fancy clothes and changing into pajamas.

You’re sitting beside them, watching the loading screen for the game. It’s taking a while…

“So…what do I have to do to get you to stare at me like that again?” Pidge whips their head around, watching you with nervous eyes. They take a deep breath before they speak. “I always stare at you like that. You’ve just never noticed.” “AAAAWWWWWWWW REALLY?!”

Forget the video game. CUE THE CUDDLEFEST!!! 💚💚💚

MATT 🧡

Matt literally goes like this: 😌👉🏻👈🏻 “Hey…uhm hey…wanna be my date to the gala tomorrow?” *blushies*

And you’re like “Matthew, we’ve been dating for 8 months.” “Yeah, so?” You sigh heavily. “Yes, I’ll be your date, you dork.”

He doesn’t go to anyone for help with anything. Man is so confident and he knows you love him no matter what he looks like.

But of course he cleans up for you. He dresses up all formal and uses mouth wash like 10 times. He puts on so much lotion. He got some from Lance bc his hands are always so dry. He just wants to hold your soft hand in his own soft hand, ya know?

He’s waiting outside your door for a while, giving you privacy while you get ready but being right there for you when you’re done.

Once your door slides open, he turns and now he’s looking at you like he just won the lottery.

“HOT DAMN, YOU ARE SO FINE! What did I ever do to deserve you? Oh my god, you’re so perfect. You are the most perfect thing I’ve ever laid my eyes on, did you know that? I swear, you are so precious-“ “Maaattttt, stooooopppppp.” You’re blushing so hard rn and he LOVES IT.

He walks with his arm around your shoulders, chatting with you about who is attending the event tonight and the importance of it all.

You sort of follow him around most the night, not doing much of the talking bc you’d rather listen to him talk.

He is so intelligent, just like Pidge. He uses words so big you cant even begin to imagine what half of them mean. He was so smooth with his words, the way he could spit facts about anything and everything without a second thought took your breath away.

At some point, you lost him in the crowd. He was busy, he was working to protect the universe. You understand. This is more than just a party.

You wander outside for some fresh air and a break from all the loud banter. Matt is meeting you out there within minutes.

“Hey. You alright?” He rests a hand on your upper back, rubbing his thumb back and forth between your shoulder blades. “Yep! Just…need a break.” “Yeah, I get it. It’s overwhelming.”

He turns and looks over his shoulder before he waves, a big smile on his face. “Oh hey! Yeah, this is (Y/N), my partner. The one I was telling you about.” He’s introducing you to an ally of the coalition who he’d just met earlier this evening.

You can’t help but smile, your heart pounding in your chest. He was talking about you to someone here tonight? What was he saying? Did he just call you his partner??? You’ve never actually heard him call you that. You’re so blushy and flattered and happy.

After a brief meeting, the visitor leaves you two alone. You pull Matt into a hug, squeezing him as tight as you can.

“You know I love you, right?” “Yes. You know I love YOU, right?” “Yeah, I know.” “Good, don’t you ever forget it.” You can decide who said what. Either way, y’all are so in love it’s not even funny.

[cherryxblossxms]

Hello there sorry to bother please can I request for Dark Keith the letters A B E F G H K P O U ? Thank you have a nice day :D

You absolutely can!! Thank you for requesting some Keith content ❤️

Mean!Keith

A for Aphrodisiac (What always turns them on?)

He loves it when you praise him, especially if you address him by name while doing it. In general, when you address him by name directly makes him feel good, feel seen by the most important person to him, but admittedly it's very indulgent for him to know if he made you feel good or happy.

B for Bondage (Who gets tied up and how?)

His partner gets tied up, for sure. Not that he won't indulge you once, maybe twice, only after strong trust has been established. But he gets particularly tickled by restricting your movements, leaving you victim to his actions and unable to escape the pleasure he'll make sure to deliver to you. He enjoys using ribbons mostly, but if he wants to leave some marks on your skin, he might use rope instead. The level of effort depends on how much he wants to tease you, but he's capable of some very good knots. So if he wants a long session, he may go all out and tie you completely up with pretty ropework.

E for Exposed (What is the most daring place they’ve had sex?)

In the woods. You made the mistake of being alone with him one pleasant afternoon in the woods. What started as a nice stroll looking for nearby herbs and enjoying the scenery, became a dirty, heated exchange of deep grunts and soft cries, clothes shoved just enough out of the way for access to each other. You were still finding flowers and leaves in each other's hair and clothes many hours after your outdoor quickie, making sure to leave a lasting memory with you.

F for Favorite (What do they find sexiest about their partner?)

He loves how direct and honest you are with him. Even if it causes you to freeze up and get all flustered, he loves when you speak your mind and tell him directly what you want him to do.

G for Graceful (What is the weirdest position they’ve tried?)

This also involved the woods, and particularly some strange angling over a fallen tree trunk. As things got more heated and Keith started to take over, you found yourself in a strange kind of right-side-up wheelbarrow, hips held up higher than your head and all you could see was the canopy of trees above you.

H for Hands (What do they do with their hands during sex?)

Keith loves holding your face or chin to keep your eyes on him during sex. He loves nothing more than being acknowledged by you, making sure you remember exactly who is making you feel this good, and enjoys doing that through eye contact, or at least being face to face. He also loves to just watch your composure crumble as your orgasm approaches; he won't let you turn away from him, not until he's satisfied with what he's seen. If he's not holding your face, then he likes to hold onto your waist or hips as leverage while fucking you.

K for Kink (What’s their secret kink?)

He has a bit of a corruption kink. He doesn't care about virginity or total lack of experience, but he does love the idea of breaking you down and rewiring your brain until all you can think of is him, the way he fits inside you, reaches all of your most sensitive spots, and ruins you for absolutely anyone else.

O for Oral (Giving or receiving? Why?)

Receiving. He's happy to give to his partner at all times, he's always eager to show you the ways he can bring you to shambles in bed. But it's incredibly satisfying for him to direct you on how to please him, how to flick your tongue over him, trace the lines of the veins, the sensitive junction under the head. He's a big man in more ways than one, so it's especially sexy watching you struggle with his size as you try to pleasure him.

P for Position (What is their favorite position(s) and why?)

He loves to have you on his lap. More often than not, he likes having you face him when you do this, straddling his hips as you take him. He loves to see your expression twist and your body bounce as he moves you on his cock. But he doesn't mind having you face the other direction, especially if there's a mirror involved, so he gets the benefit of both seeing your body under the effects of his pleasure as well as see how scandalized you are being exposed like this.

U for Under (Who’s in charge and how?)

Mostly, he's in charge. He might give you an opportunity or two to attempt taking charge, but he prefers being in control of the direction of things, telling you how he wants you, what he wants, and where. He knows he can trust you, but he still enjoys his security in being able to take charge in more delicate matters. Of course, he's still extremely receptive to you and your comfort, and would never push you to do something you're not interested or comfortable in. But he will be the one to suggest things otherwise.

[bokudaddie]

hcs for all the paladins (or just keith/pidge’s) reactions to reader, being super nice and good with animals?? like how would they feel if the reader just came back to the castle with like a space cat or other space animals trailing behind them? how would they react to reader getting sad they couldn’t take an animal with them?

a/n: this is so cute omg 🥺 im also going to add in them seeing the lions and instead of being intimidated, they’re just like (owo). also, i’m skipping out on shiro bc i don’t really know if i can write for him just yet 😅

paladins with an s/o who’s good with animals

Keith

oh lord

as soon as you saw keith come back with a space-wolf-thing,

you knew you would do anything, and everything for that animal

but ofc your main focus is on keith bc ya know ‘where tf were you??’

and you were like “i missed you 🥺👉👈” and he was like “im sowwy.. 🥺👉👈”

and after everyone was back to normal, you were like “asdfghbdhdb i love that dog-thing more than life itself” and keith is kinda just sitting there like “tf what about me?”

but cosmo loved you back just as much

btw you were in love with the name when it was recommended

and you, keith, and cosmo were like your own little family 🥺❤️

and you would all sleep together, curled up on the small bed every night

and cosmo is just such a good boy and i would die for him

Pidge

so let’s set up the story for you..

you guys have to go to a planet because they sent a distress signal, and it was just some galra that voltron had to take down, which was easy-peasy

and you come across their pets which are some space cats (normal cats, just larger and different colors like pink and stuff)

you lose your shit

you run up to them and you’re kinda making the face pidge made when she saw the robot from that one episode where lance got handcuffed to a tree lmao

one of them didn’t have an owner and you looked at the team, (mostly shiro and allura) like “cAn i kEeP iT??”

and they just couldn’t say no to you

pidge was kinda scared bc like wtf were you going to feed it?? was it going to steal you from her??

plus she grew up having a dog (we love bae bae) she’s kinda new with cats

the cat follows you around everywhere, and almost never leave your side

and the cat is kinda possessive over you, so when pidge is tryna spend time with you, the cat comes up and gives her a death glare

pidge swore she hated her

but eventually, she gets comfy around you and pidge. and it got to the point where she would wait at the entrance thing for pidge to come back suring missions 🥺

Hunk

so he first meets you when your planet is being attacked by galra

he swoops down, and protects you and your family from a large blast from the fleet

you see the big space kitty and you’re like “🥺 it’s so cute”

your whole family is like, “wtf is wrong with you, we almost died”

and eventually you meet voltron and you’re like “omg your space cats are so cute 🥺”

lance fr said some, “what the fuck-“

and you looked at hunks armor and was like, “hey you were the one that saved me :)”

and y’all talk and stuff and he’s really awkward bc like “omg this cute person is talking to me and she likes my lion”

and he takes you to meet the lion and you go up to it, and it lowers it’s head to you and you fucking scratch it’s chin like dhhdhdn

but yeah hunk is now officially in love eith you so this is not the last time you see him

Lance

you two just back home from the war, and were taking a break from things to ease everyone’s minds before going back into space

you’ve heard pidge talk about how she had a dog at home named bae bae, and you were extremely excited to meet him

so when you finally got the chance, you dragged lance with you to meet him

and you were in awe when you saw him

you ran over and met the dog, and you let him sniff you first because you respect dogs, and started petting him and playing with him

lance fr started getting jealous lmao

but he also thought it was really cute how much you loved animals, which was also shown on the palace with the mice

when you got back home, you sat together in a comfortable silence, until you broke it by adking him if you guys could get a dog once the war was over

and his heart melted because it’s so domestic and he’s soft for that shit

so duh

he says yes

he loves dogs too so like hell yeah

buy me a coffee?

🖊 Keith!! uwu

Hi Geki!!!! ❤️❤️❤️

AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA OKAY KEITH IS A FUCKING MESS™ BUT I LOVE HIM SO MUCH

I love you too, bastard.

SHUSH OKAY UHHHHHHHHHHH

He started out as a dumb character idea and then just... kind of started doing his own thing???

Keith Damien O'Rinne (born Cináed-Cathal O'Rinne) has a lot of emotional trauma shit from when he was young (I won't get into specifics since it's a little... yikes, but it involves death) and at some point he made a pact with a demon (technically an incubus) to become his host, but on condition that those he dearly loves and cares for (basically his best-friend-and-neighbour-and-technical-foster-sibling-turned-lover Ethan O'Halloran at the moment) never experiences harm by the demon's doing, in which the demon agrees to.

But Keith has a lot of pent-up aggression and homicidal ideations and accidentally murders someone, in which after he disappears for several years. Ethan (born Énna-Tadhg O'Halloran) is absolutely worried, they haven't heard from their boyfriend in years, and they're tired of waiting for him to come back home. So they go out and try to find him, knowing that Keith made a promise to come back home to Ethan, whether that be Keith finding them or them finding him. This goes on for months.

You're leaving some crucial details out, Silas.

Shush, I'm the one telling this story. Eventually, Ethan does find Keith, but they lose their right eye in the process. Turns out, Keith's demonic host Alftharosk (or Aftuhk, in his tongue) was trying to divert all of Keith's aggression and absolute hatred of everything elsewhere, to someplace better. But that only happens when Ethan finds Keith again. And then the two are led to a temple like structure that Alftharosk apparently built. Inside, they meet Ásgeirr Sítheach (born Hunter Ifearnán), a human, now deitic vessel of Set, the Egyptian god of chaos and storms. And also two big black inky, shadowy doggos named Kerberos and Ulframn.

Eh, close enough. And if you figured, Ásgeirr gave Silas (you probably know him as Hunter, or formerly Xander) his original name.

BUT Ásgeirr technically isn't from the same universe as Keith and Ethan. Keith and Ethan's Ásgeirr... never happened. He's still Hunter, still mortal, not a vessel. In Ásgeirr's universe, Keith doesn't accept the demon's pact, and the demon kills both Keith and Ethan. Dark stuff.

It's all very intricate.

Yes, thank you, Keith, for your commentary.

Anytime.

But yeah. The temple is where these two separate universes converge. Tycho just shows up later, once Keith starts my system. If you want me to ramble more about my system alters, please send me a "🖊️" !!!

"I missed you." (Which is a huge mood. Miss ya, Honey Dumpling! Hope you're doing well! ❤️)

Keith returns from the Blade of Marmora but won’t tell anyone why. Won’t answer any more questions besides ‘are you back to stay?’ (yes), ‘do they know you’re here?’ (yes), ‘are you okay?’ (I think so).

There’s infinitely more questions to be asked but no one wants to ask them because Keith has got this...look. Has this way of speaking. Has this way of looking without really seeing and Lance? Lance wants to know why. 

But he doesn’t ask. Because no one’s asking. And if anyone did ask it’d probably be Shiro, because Lance and Keith may have been on really nice terms when he left, but Shiro is Shiro. And everything is always Shiro-and-Keith. And Lance isn’t anywhere close to that so he’s not going to push anything, he’s just gonna let things happen. Let them be. Even if he wants to know. And he really...really wants to know.

Keith disappears somewhere within the castle for the rest of the night. It should be alarming, someone should be alarmed shouldn’t they - why does no one seem to be alarmed? - but then Lance realizes that Shiro is also gone. Which means he’s talking to Keith. Which means Lance should just fucking relax because Shiro’s gonna know how to talk to him the right way. And then Keith will be able to unload. And then everything will be back to normal and who cares if there was pretty much just a quick glance in Lance’s direction and nothing else when Keith walked through those doors this afternoon?

He doesn’t need to take it personally. 

Keith is working through some shit and Lance doesn’t need to take it personally that he hugged everyone else but him after not seeing them for months.

No. He’ll just wait. Sit and wait. Fill out this report and wait. Say goodnight to Hunk as he leaves for bed and wait.

Wait...

Wait...

What is he waiting for?

He’s waiting for Keith.

“There you are...” It’s way too late and Lance has waited way too long but Keith is emerging from wherever he’s hidden himself and he just looks so fucking sad. But. Lance can help too. Needs to. “How you doin’ buddy?”

The attempt at easing in with a friendly smile goes unseen. Because Keith isn’t looking. Isn’t seeing. And he’s also not really moving so Lance moves for him - closes the space just enough that he can get a better look but instantly regrets it because Keith just-...he just looks like shit. 

“You uh-...” Lance goes for it again...tries not to stare at the heavy bags under Keith’s eyes. “...you talk to Shiro...?” Another question that he’s not sure he’ll get an answer to. But...

Keith nods. Doesn’t look. Blinks slowly and tiredly and... He should keep going.

“We’re all kinda worried about you bud-”

Lance’s sentiment cuts off at the move forward - the arms wrapped around his middle - hanging, hanging, heavily, and-

“I missed you...”

He’s sure he heard wrong. Has to have. But...

Lance experiments with gentle hands, returning the hug no matter how caught off guard the attention has struck him. And he’s gotta push, “Y-... Yeah man... We missed you too...”

Except he can feel the frown press into the side of his neck, Keith’s face contorting in a way that doesn’t bode well and-... Is it because...

“...Keith?”

The arms around him tighten. Desperate. Talking without words. Coupled with strangled ones. “I...” they’re muffled against Lance’s neck, “I missed you...”

Lance swallows the lump in his throat that he can’t understand. He doesn’t know what to do. Doesn’t know what to say. What is there to say except: “I missed you too Keith...”

It hangs in the air. And for a moment it stays there, unanswered. But then the warmth of Keith letting out a breath against him breaks the tension - eases it away - breaks it down until it’s just the two of them. Nothing else. No one else. Like those few nights they shared before Keith left for the Blades...

“Hey...”  Lance murmurs lowly, squeezing his hold around the boy in his arms. “You don’t have to talk about anything, but do you wanna just...chill...? For a little bit...?”

He knows he’s speaking from a place of selfishness. It isn’t the first time he’s wanted it since Keith left. 

But Keith...he sighs...another long breath against Lance’s neck...and then he nods. 

And that’s how they find themselves on the couch in the darkened common room, Lance’s arm around Keith’s shoulder’s - Keith’s head against Lance’s. And there’s still a lot of questions to be asked. But that’s not what Keith needs right now. Right now, Keith needs this. And Lance needs this. And it’s not like it was before Keith left, but it’s close enough.

FucK ME—

Okay so, spoilers ahead but.

We know that Keith’s Principal/Teacher in his old school pretty much hated him, no matter how talented he was.

She could clearly see him in the simulator but she tossed that over her shoulder, saying things like “he wouldn’t fit in” or “he’s a disciplinary issue” but he made it past everyone else.

And because James knew Keith was an orphan does this mean that everyone else knew and made fun of him for it??

Keith seems to not be liked by any of his peers so would kids start shit (mostly James) and would get away with it while Keith was yelled at?? BECUASE IM PRETTY SURE—

SO WHEN SHIRO STOOD UP FOR HIM HE WAS LIKE “b i t ch tf??? ???? ? ? ?” THIS BOI WAS SHOCKED, BECUASE FOR O N C E A DUDE STAYED WITH HIM AND STOOD UP FOR HIM. HE THOUGHT ONCE HE MESSED UP, SHIRO WAS JUST GONNA LEAVE HIM. AND DROP HIM BACK AT THE ORPHANAGE.
