#Galran Keith

[ethereance]

Galtean Kallurance au where altean guard!Lance is childhood friends with Allura and is well and truly smitten (it’s very much requited). Only everything seems to come crumbling down when they both meet Galra!Keith at a prestigious event. Events aren’t really his thing, and he’s only attending because Krolia asked him to, so part way through when he’s not longer required to be in attendance, he sneaks off to try out the altean combat simulators he’s heard so much about. Lance almost gets a knife to the face popping up unannounced.

“What are you doing here?” demands Keith, very much embarrassed about being caught.

“Stopping people like you from sneaking around the castle,” says Lance. Then he gestures beside him. “Also guarding the princess.”

He is very much not as Lance and Allura both know who would win nine times out of ten in a combat situation, but that’s the excuse they’ve been using for years, always sticking by one another’s side, and so it sees its use once again.

(They know King Alfor has seen through it. But he seems too amused to stop them.

As he’d once said to Lance, he appreciates that he’s been there for her as a friend. She’ll grow up in a world of suitors and political allies, so a friendship is one to be treasured.)

Allura brings up that the simulators can only train you so much.

Lance offers to spar with Keith. It’s a close one, but he’s still perfecting his skills with the broadsword, and when Keith gets too close in range (a little too close), he lets his guard down.

“Not much of a guard, are you?” Keith taunts. Lance glowers and immediately berates himself for getting flustered over a pretty face.

Allura goes against Keith next. Lance can’t take his eyes off. It’s like choreography, a lethal dance of weapons. They match each other’s movements perfectly.

They end up seeing a lot more of Keith after this, basically going out of their way to see him again (Lance says he wants his rematch and has been improving his skills with close range weapons because of it. Allura sees right through him before Lance even realises things himself. With Allura he’d been sure of what he felt, and can barely remember a time he didn’t like her. It’s just how it has always been. But his crush on Keith feels different and unsure).

Lance at first doesn’t know how to feel when the evidence of Allura’s crush on Keith becomes undeniable. He knows he’d hissed at that olkarion called Matt when he’d tried flirting with Allura (which she had dutifully ignored in the moment, and teased him about later on), but this is different. He’s not jealous??? It throws him through the loop until he realises why. Then it throws him through several more.

Keith just wants to know what he did to capture the attention of these two alteans (eventually he’ll be glad he did).

I meant to finish this back in August, but I lost motivation for a bit. But. Here I am, finally finishing this piece. Does it seem familiar? If so, there's a reason. This is a redraw of this old piece. With changing the Galran designs of Keith and Pidge because Pidge has gone through so many designs and changes and I wanted Keith to look like his Mama. And markings and better colouring to Thace and Ulaz. So. Here we are. Pidge and Keith as Galran kiddos, probably transformed in an incident, as was on the brain when the original version was being worked on, with Thace and Ulaz taking care of the kiddos.

Anyway! I hope y'all enjoy this one! Until next time!

Galra Headcanon

- Galra are all intersex (if you want ABO moment then feel free to change it) and the genes for this is dominant so it shows up even in half galra

- the smaller the Galra the more fertile (took this idea from magic wielding Jotunn)

- Keith is very very tiny according to the bom

- when lotor first met Keith he immediately started attempting to court him

—— this is NOT bc love at first sight but rather bc he wants strong, pretty, quintessence-sensitive heirs (so he also tried to discretely court Allura at the same time. PS he got decked twice.)

started thinking about established klance telling the rest of the team that they’re engaged and after all the congratulations and tears and “no take backsies” from shiro to lance, the main question on everyones mind is “kogane or mcclain?” and klance is like “we literally just got engaged. how should we know?” and they talk it over for a while with the rest of the team and reach an agreement. there will be a wrestling ring at the reception after the ceremony and keith and lance will duke it out. they’ll take the champions name. BUT. if its a tie…….instead of just hyphenating their names, they’ll jumble them together. lance had to beg and plead with keith to agree to this bc the name lance settled on is “kocain”. keith thinks its unreasonable. lance agrees but thinks its too hilarious to pass up. (pidge gave him the idea)

[divine-pheonix]

*Jingles Keys* Galena Keith anyone?

[mothmanavenue]

what would you do if they never found us out? what would you do if we never made a sound?

[crackship-connoisseur]

erm. *scratches head and walks away*

[oliveden]

angst potential of keith maturing at galra levels, which are way longer than human lifespans

keith, pre-adolescence, realizing his dad isn't going to live long enough to see him as an adult, that he's going to be left alone at the galran equivalent of a teenager

[yellowvixen]

@trenchcoat-gecko what have you DONE you brought my voltron brainrot back!!! so yeah galran shadow bc um. he ourple

[nekomortiz]

Differences after reuniting

[rubymoon-snape]

How did I miss this the first time around?! Anyway, run Keith! Mama Krolia is after you!

Not pictured: Ryner trying too hard to not laugh

One of my many ideas is that Keith (little Galra) and Pidge meet at a young age when the Blade of Marmora decide to ally themselves with the Olkari due to those guys being rather tech savvy. With an idea like this, I like to think of “Pidge” more so being an alien nickname meaning “small” or thereabouts.

What if…

Since Keith can sense Quintessence maybe he can also manipulate it.

Keith can see and feel the way quintessence moved when Allura, Haggar, and the druids use it. So he self taught himself how to use it.

The following is a headcanon of an abandoned fanfic (We Rescue Each Other by Angelicat2 [13/?])

While being tortured and experimented on by Haggar, Keith learned to enhance his senses one by one and also speed up his healing processes. He enhances his hearing the most since he can eavesdrop on the conversations around him when he is paralyzed on the medical table. Using this method he manages to self-teach himself how to manipulate quintessence and absorb other people’s quintessence. Every time he gets r*ped he takes 10-15 deca-phobes of their life and leaves them a virus within their quintessence’s to kill them faster. While in the room with Shiro he also trained his quintessence manipulation Bu speeding up Shiro’s healing and stopping most of the pain from the wounds (this is without Shiro’s knowledge simply because Keith forgot to tell him). When they get rescued by Ulaz and transported to the Marmora base Kolivan doubts Keith and Shiro’s loyalty. Keith doesn’t want Ulaz to get in trouble for saving them and therefore abandoning his mission to get into Haggar’s inner circle so he asks what information they need and proceeds to give them everything he overheard while being experimented on and even on what Zarkon accidentally revealed while he was (in a room) nearby. He got the Marmora enough information to have multiple operatives removed from their undercover missions and posted elsewhere. Shiro is enamored with his competent half-Galran boyfriend.

Is it foreal never brought up again how the vest shiro wears at the beggining of the show is the same vest Keith's dad wears like I'm going insane thinking about it

[marrmora]

@radkatzzstuff

These are my two sonas ^ (yes I did get them before I realized I was a fictokin of both Lance and Keith but shhh)

Another way I portray my irl self is with Keith kogane in his BoM suit, it’s how I see myself in almost every situation or drawing, can’t really see my irl self as me

some of my other non-kin-related sona’s:

(yes that second one is based off of one of the evil exes from Scott pilgrim LOL)

[empty-blog-for-lurking]

How would kid react to being compared to keith? I assume not well, but i think its interesting bc to me it does seem like shes at least in some ways similiar to him, personality wise... Like shes a stubborn and scrappy reckless child who is also very very angry. And that's kinda who keith was when he was younger (dunno how hes doing rn)! Its like. She hates him she despises him and shed propably rather die than be like him but also she is. She is a little bit like him. Shes determined and capable and stubborn and reckless and i wonder if lance or kuron ever jokingly said she reminds them of him <- bet shes not too happy about that. How does she see herself in relation to him? How does she feel about the parts of her that are on some level similiar to him? Does she try to stomp down those traits ore does she keeps them in spite of it all, a 'fighting fire with fire' kind of situation? Keith has always been a stubborn fuck and its ironic that the same trait is what lead kid to seek him out to kick his ass... Idk if this makes sense but. yeah.

Also this image is very kid coded<3

image id- a screenshot of a tiktok saying "Stop blaming everyone for all your problems. Pick one person you hate and blame them for everything"

Pretty much yeah. Thing is Kid has never met Keith and Ara never really liked to talking about him beyond answering questions like who he is and what does he do. So in Kid's mind Keith is a let's just is a bit........different person than he actually is (she thinks he is a selfish arrogant asshole jerk who only cares about himself and clearly ripping off of the other paladins's hardwork while he fucks around and then steal the credit)

So to her she's nothing like Keith at all, cause in her head Keith's the biggest asshole in the universe, and she's like what normal? Everything she's doing is 'justified' so like whatever ¯\_(ツ)_/¯ (Kid is a smart kid with many skills but self introspection is not one of them). And this attitude is most likely going to carry on even when she meets Keith. To her Keith abandoned her and Ara without a word because he was selfish, while she left without a word to help Ara and not worry them. (Cause just like how Keith yelled at Pidge for trying to leave only to fuck off when the team really needed him, the hypocrisy is also inherited).

So to answer your question, she will fucking hate it but more because to her it's just plain wrong and these people clearly don't know her, because she's nothing like that asshole how dare you 🤬🤬😡😡?

(Lance brought it up once and she bit him so he never brought it up again cause it clearly upsets her and Definitely Not because he doesn't want to get bit again haha Definitely Not Jesus Christ what are her teeth made of?? but like he and Kuron and even Ara all Know™, it's very clear to them where certain habits and mannerisms of her are coming from)

That being said once she grows up a bit more and realizes that oh shit she was a lot like Keith, then it's a critical hit psychic damage. It's just full on Shinji pose for days, she will not survive that Realization™ it will actually kill her on the inside, even if this hit at the age where she has mostly calmed down

s1e9 shiro asks sendak where they found the red lion,,,, did we ever find that out? (the answer is probably no unless it was in one of the handbooks or smth like that?)
