Okay but you know what’s a trait of Keith’s that I want to hear more of?
Show me his attention to detail.
Everyone jokes about his “conspiracy board” but nobody seems to consider it’s not a conspiracy board? Like- he put a map down and figured out roughly where the energy source was, and then specifically went to locations and triangulated his weird brain sense to isolate it down to a specific area, and then when that led him to the caves, he took photographs of seemingly all the pictures he could find and used strings to mark their positions in what caves.
There was other stuff there we don’t know why he put up (something he later tore down, and a star chart) but none of this suggests he was making wild leaps of logic or conclusions about whatever it “must be” and his recounting of it is all incredibly matter-of-fact. Virtually nothing is conjecture except the safest ones- “like some kind of energy was telling me to search,” which is rooted in his experiences and not something he can quantify though he clearly tried as much as he could to do so- “they all appear to tell a slightly different story about a blue lion” would suggest that he went over those pictures and carefully compare/contrasted them.
This suggests Keith is actually good at making detailed observations, and recording and organizing them in a very clear-cut accessible manner. This may well have taken him months to put together but he’s able to present it very quickly and effectively to the team.
Seemingly, something reinforced, because right after he sees Ulaz’s weapon and hears about what it’s for, we see him privately comparing it to the symbol on his own weapon.
the things nerds do to avoid awkward conversations…
This reminds me of that one story where this guy ran a marathon and whenever someone would try to talk to him, he would run a little faster to avoid small talk conversation with other competitors and ended up winning the marathon
they bond over conspiracy theories and what a dork shiro is
they also both love space
matt runs on the treadmill while keith does some combat practice
them snuggling together, looking up at the stars, and talking about what aliens could be looking back at them
reunion that shocks everyone, as mentioned in post above.
“my life would have been a lot different if i hadn’t met you shiro”
because he introduced him to his boyfriend matt
if other shippers are allowed to reach then so am i dang it
Shiro x Matt x Keith:
i like to call them the Original Garrison Trio
all of them are gay for each other
shiro and matt probably got together first tbh leaving keith to Pine
shiro and matt were super into keith though, so a lot of their conversations were about how lovely and strong and pretty and amazing he was
eventually shiro and matt are just like “we wanna date u do you wanna date us”
keith says yes as awkwardly as they asked him
the three of them are super happy together and are grossly affectionate
ALSO ANGST-
no one likes keith
he’s put on a pedestal, never studies, aces the flight simulator
he also comes off as arrogant and rude
he’s really just Mr. Darcy it’s chill i love you keith
when the three of them start dating people accuse keith of trying to break them up or smth
matt and shiro are Ready to Fight and quickly dismantle these rumors by showering keith in love and affection publicly while keith blushes
ALSO FLUFF-
pushing beds together for sleep overs
stargazing
making plans for when matt and shiro get back from kerberos
too bad they never come back wHOOPS MORE ANGST
Matt x Lance x Shiro:
you’ve heard of shance, you’ve heard of latte, now get ready for: shlatte
basically add matt to a ship and it gets better
note: this also works with hunk, as will be demonstrated shortly
matt and shiro being A Thing pre-galra
then during Voltron Times Shiro and Lance have a little unrequited mutual pining going on there
then shiro disappears and matt appears
boom, matt and lance bond while they look for shiro and more mutual crushing
then matt and shiro Reunite TM and lance is upsetti
and there isn’t even spaghetti smh
lance draws back while matt and shiro are in their love bubble
but matt and shiro both quickly realize they both love lance too
so eventually, with a lot of convincing that yes lance, they are serious and yes lance, we’re both in love with you- why wouldn’t we be they all get together
matt and lance are super affectionate all the time and drag shiro into snuggle piles at every available moment
Matt x Hunk:
MECHANIC BOYS
bonding over being the Team Mechanics TM
they’re both so soft and sweet
matt will eat anything hunk cooks
matt eats a lot and hunk cooks a lot so it’s perf
Casual Affection TM
Soft but Strong Boys
‘you’re my whole world bro’
legit, this doesn’t even have to be romantic, i just love them both sm
SOFT!!! FACE!!! KISSES!!!
matt steals hunks clothes and then denies that he did, despite drowning in hunks clothes
matt will 1000% try to be the big spoon when they cuddle
he succeeds
they are just the cuddliest boys and deserve so much happiness
now there are a few other combinations you could go with like, Matt x Hunk x Keith, Matt x Keith x Lance (klatte, a classic), Matt x Shunk, but I want to get to sort of the main event here:
SHUNKLATTE:
Shiro x Hunk x Keith x Lance x Matt (+ an e from the Latte ship name )
also known as pidge, screaming, YOU CAN’T DATE ALL MY FRIENDS MATT and Matt screaming back WATCH ME
they’re all soft and gay and affectionate towards each other
literally look at all the adorable dynamics above
you don’t have to choose between any of them because everyone is in love
The Ultimate Slowburn and Mutual Pining
biggest, cuddliest piles
they take turns having sleep overs with each other
when they inevitably lose track everyone just piles up in shiro’s room
Pidge is overall fine with this but will glare at matt on occasion
“it’s one thing for all my friends to date each other, it’s another for my brother to date all my friends” pidge probably
“you’re just jealous that i have four beautiful boyfriends and you have none” matt back at her, with varying reaction
modern taako wouldnt shoplift. he was the only one who wanted to stop magnus and merle from stealing from the bank in redcliffe. he would, however, take a pair of bolt cutters, break open the dumpster where sephora tosses their unsold goods, and dig around for free shit
“its not in the store, its not being sold, its factually garbo. hence its free game, my dude” - taako, probably
