Ngl I kinda want to read a fic where keith gets like. Deaged.
But not in the way that it's usually done; I don't want to see baby keith, or toddler keith, or small child keith before his life went to shit. I've seen a lot of those. I love them, but I've seen a lot.
I want to see a deaged fic where keith gets deaged to just before shiro found him. When he's felt lost and abandoned for years. At what is arguably his lowest point. Scrappy and rough and with a hard exterior that shiro has to break all over again. Convinced no one could love him, jumping at the slightest thing. Keith with no care for his life or other people, who doesn't think he matters. I want the paladins to see him like that, and acknowledge how far he's come, and how much his life has sucked.
Please.
