Keith’s biggest fear,
Let’s just get into it,
Keith’s biggest fear?
Keith didn’t know who he was from his Galra side, and neither did he know about the paladins side.
Shiro tells Keith they’re a family and they are,
but Keith always pushed people away, and it made him look selfish and cold,
It was him protecting himself the only way he knew back then.
and in season 4 we see him making a choice.
Keith left his friends his family,
So when Keith left, he had made a solid choice. Keith decided to be alone. Keith knew it,
and Lance did too,
Say whatever you want, but other than Shiro, Lance is the one that knows Keith the most. Lance knows Keith, and he knows what Keith is scared of,
Lance knows Keith is scared of doing things right, to confront the problem,
Keith did run away. Keith was scared to get closer to the team, to get closer to Lance.
Lance was finally in a place where he was accepting Keith,
Lance was feeling ready,
For what? We never got to see because Keith was pulling away,
Keith choose to be alone, and Lance got very hurt. Lance has never been afraid to call Keith out,
and he still isn’t,
Keith’s biggest fear is the team not accepting him, not wanting to be with him if he’s not the leader,
That’s why he left. That’s why he chose to be alone. He didn’t want to get hurt, and he wanted to give the team a good leader,
Keith was protecting himself and the people he loved the most,
So when Keith left, he was alone. He didn’t have anybody. Keith loves the team, they’re really important to him, so when he found out something could happen to them,
He was willing to die for them,
Keith’s way of showing his feelings is through action,
Lance is more vocal, but he’s a man of actions too,
Voltron is very important to Lance. It’s his second family and everyone knew that, everyone except Keith,
So now that Keith back, and has this mentality,
It hits home run for Lance,
Now that Keith’s back with the team, Keith knows about his Galra line. He and Krolia bonded. He knows now that he’s not alone,
So now he wants to bond with the team, he’s trying to keep them safe, to show them he cares,
But after being in space for so long, and left alone with his thoughts and the teams,
Keith starts remembering his past, his doubts, his fears,
The team pulling away. The team not accepting him. It makes Keith very anxiose,
and very scared,
It made Keith go back to his mentality to push people away,
But this time he can’t or better yet they won’t let him go away,
Keith isn’t a person of words,but when he says things they mean a lot,
It can either hurt the team,
or bring them together,
Keith is slowly but surely getting there. Keith is getting close to the team,
and he started with the one person he was impressed by,
The one that has fears, but still confronts them,
Keith isn’t only talking to Hunk, he’s talking to himself. When Keith gets scared he runs away,
it makes him look like he only thinks of himself,
But his action prove other wise,
but Keith still thinks the paladins are with him or follow his orders just because he’s the leader,
There’s one person out of all of them he listens to it the most,
Lance.
Keith convinced himself that Lance only saw him as a leader because of this,
Keith really thought Lance was going to him because they were getting closer, they were being friends, but Lance said this,
Ouch, Lance basically said he went to Keith because he was the leader, like he didn’t have a option,
That’s it. Keith accepted that Lance didn’t want to get close to him, that he didn’t want to be his friend. Keith convinced himself that Lance is around him or reaches out to him because he’s the leader.
But we all know Lance is a liar.
Shiro was back, Allura, his crush was there. The whole team was there, Lance could have talked to anyone, but he chose Keith. Not only because he was the leader,
but because Lance trusts Keith. Keith is more than a leader, more than a half Galra, he’s the future. Future what? Only Lance knows.
Going back to Lance lying about going to Keith only because he was the leader, why didn’t he go talk to someone when he was insecure in season 6?
Yes, Lance and Shiro were having problems, but he also had problems with Keith. Both of them butted heads all the time, but he still went to him.
So why didn’t he go to Shiro when he was feeling insecure?
He preferred to talk to the fucken mice rather than talk to the LEADER or confess his love to Allura. Like, *INHALES* BOY.
In conclusion, Lance gave Keith the idea that he was only around him because he is the leader. No one else, but him,
Lance really pores his heart when he says “Team leader” but for Keith it’s a reminder of how Lance only see’s him like that.
Both of them need to talk and Lance has to be the one that admits their friendship, because he’s the one that has been rejecting it since season 1,
and for that to happen, something has to happen to one of them.
bringing this baby back cause we about to reach,
Alright, we’ve been praying since season idk for Black Paladin Lance.
When Allura is talking about the Black lion, there are three heads that pop up.
Shiro, Keith, Lance.
Shiro was meant to be the one that piloted Black the most, then Keith, and then Lance with the less time.
If Keith is taken by Hagger and or brainwashed, Red would somehow be involved. Keith and Red still have a connection and the foreshadowing from the past episode is beaming. So if Keith takes Red, what would Lance pilot?
I was maybe thinking he would go back to Blue, like we see here.
but honestly, Blue would hold him back, so then who would he pilot?
The Black Lion,
The reason why Lance wasn’t picked by Black was because he was being selfish, Lance wanted the spotlight, and it’s more than getting attention or being your moment, it’s about connecting with the lion, connecting with their teammates. Lance was only thinking about himself
While Keith was thinking about Shiro. How much he respects and looks up to him.
How he thought he could never be like him,
But the Black lion was proving him wrong.
Shiro told Keith he wanted him to lead Voltron,
Keith rejected that idea because that would mean to lose Shiro, again.
But if it meant that he could help his brother and the others than he would do it.
Now the same thing is happening between Keith and Lance. Keith has chosen someone to lead if he’s not there,
and he chose Lance.
But Lance seems like he doesn’t want it anymore,
Because it would mean that Lance would lose Keith,
Look:
Keith:
Lance:
It’s the face of not wanting to lose something special to you.
Keith was able to connect to with Black because he had a strong connection with Shiro. Keith respected and valued Shiro, just like Lance with Keith.
Keith knew he could never replace Shiro.
Just like Lance accepted he could never be like Keith,
It’s like when they were back on Earth,
Keith:
Lance:
If Keith is in danger than that would mean Lance would have to take charge for a minute.
just like this was foreshadowing,
