Today’s thought of the day: lances family (canonically) takes in strays all the time. Keith is literally the definition of a stray as a person (orphan, people constantly leaving him, overall attitude, etc.) and so ofc it’s only in lances nature to take him in and love him. Lances family loves Keith like a son(in law), just like every cat, dog, or lizard the McClain kids would bring in as kids.
Also the same could be said about veracxa I think
Strays might take more time to get comfortable, and they might be harder to love, but at their core they’re just innocent animals that have learned to fear others because of what they’ve gone through. They deserve love.
