[how shiro meeting pidge should’ve gone]

pidge, looking like an identical copy of her older brother, matt: hey-

shiro, still slightly dazed from his alien kidnapping extravaganza: matt man i know you said you’d haunt me if you died first but this is too far

Rookie son

Tex has a son who is small, and skinny, and his wrists look so fragile that Tex thinks he could snap them if he’s not careful… and yet, Keith is faster than any man in the unit, he can carry two people back to safety in a single trip and lift beams larger than Tex himself.

Supremely disappointed that there wasn't a #showAU tag for #Keithtober this year, but anyway! have a Show AU!

And Happy Birthday Keith!!! Here’s an au where Tex survives and raises Keith!

･㉨･)っ♡　

Sure, there's a chance that even with his dad alive Keith would still want to join the garrison, but I also like the idea of him choosing to stay closer to the desert (and blue!)

Here are some things I was thinking about this AU:

-There is one universe where Tex died in a fire, but in THIS universe he survives the fire.

-His brush with death makes Tex aware that he needs to have a larger support for his child, so he makes some changes: he takes more desk time whenever possible, and forges deeper bonds with his fellow firemen; Keith now has half a dozen different godfathers who could take him in if Tex ever falls in the line of duty.

-With his father alive Keith has the chance to learn who (and what) his mother is, where she is and most importantly, what his father is protecting in the desert.

-Keith reasons that should anything happen to his dad, the keeping of the Blue Lion would fall on him, and it'd be difficult to do that if he's stuck in a military school; instead of going to the Garrison he decides to stay and become a fireman.

-There might have been a row at some point because of this (since Keith had said over and over how much he wanted to become a pilot before), but Keith is stubborn and got his way. Besides, if he really wanted to, there's always flight simulators.

-With Tex alive Keith never loses his alien roots. Tex knows enough galran to at least read the controls of a spaceship, and he passes this knowledge to Keith.

-Tex also gives Keith his mother's knife, not just for sentimental reasons, but also because Krolia showed him how to receive and send signals with it.

-Keith grows up in the desert, he still has poor people skills but he’s less conflicted about them; he also has a few quirks here and there that don't look entirely human (like the super strenght), but Tex assures him "your mother used to do that too" and therefore he's more confortable on his skin.

-Keith still aced the flight simulator during Shiro's visit to his school; he never steals Shiro's car but neither does he accept the offer to join the Garrison. Their friendship might develop after Shiro's continuos tries to recruit Keith.

Keith and Pidge are absolutely besties.

They are the ultimate introvert alliance, they are both autistic, they both like cryptids. Their older brothers are best friends. They are small but deadly. They can both Hotwire a car in under fifteen seconds. They watch old alien documentary’s together and laugh at the inaccuracies.

I love them

Even more Keith headcannons because my health is getting even worse

- if he feels safe, he can fall asleep literally anywhere

- if you can’t find him, it’s very likely he’s just chilling on a roof somewhere

- he was the type of kid to eat bugs off the ground

- he used to bite people as a kid and since he has sharp teeth he’s caused a lot of damage

- he can see really well in the dark and so he never really bothers to turn lights on. The amount of times Shiro and Adam have found him cooking in the middle of the night in the dark is astounding

- can drive anything, you give him a set of controls and he will figure it out in seconds

- one time he refused to eat anything but animal crackers for two straight weeks, Shiro was so done

- since he grew up in the desert he never learned how to swim. He never mentioned this to anyone and one time he went to the lake with Shiro and Adam and almost drowned

- he chews on his lip a lot and since his teeth are so sharp it’s a miracle he hasn’t bitten through them

- if you wake him up you will end up with a knife to your throat, it’s a reflex and I can’t be stopped

- plays the knife game when he gets bored and has almost given Shiro multiple heart attacks

- if you leave him alone for a second he will wander off, Shiro learned this the hard way it involved an alligator, a tree, and Keith getting a new tooth to add to his collection

- he gets sensory overload very easily, he will start mumbling and get ready irritated, just get him some headphones and turn the lights off and he’ll feel better

- has a very high pain tolerance and Shiro has had to drag him kicking and screaming to the nurses office on multiple occasions for a broken bone he said “wasn’t a big deal”

Keith stole Shiro’s car cuz of the whole “I push them away before they reject me” thing. Keith probably really wanted to be picked by Shiro. And hearing how the teacher was talking about him made him feel like It’s not gonna happen.

And Shiro picked him anyway despite what the teacher said and Keith’s attempts to ruin it. That probably meant so much to Keith.

Same goes for when he decides to cut from the team during the drill and it results in a collective punishment. He sensed they dun like him 

And wanted to give them even more reasons to hate him so it would feel to him like it was his choice.

So I think Keith wanted to be friends with the others deep inside. :(

And Shiro saw through all that being all like “You can’t fuck it up no matter how much you try, I’ll always want you around.”

AND KEITH STILL DOESN’T BELIEVE ANY OF THAT 

He still fears Shiro will eventually give up on him

Shiro standing by his side there means so so much

And just think how much feelings were in that hug later

Specially since Shiro saw himself in Keith’s fear hologram kinda doing the thing Adam did to him by making him chose between something important to him and their relationship.

Like…IT ALL GOES SO DEEP TTATT

God, I love this show.

[voltronbookshelf]

i guess i have some walls up

[voltronbookshelf]

smth i'm struggling to understand w tumblr's new post+ is that it seems to at least in some form be directed at like. fandom content creators? bc that's such a big part of content creation on tumblr is fandom

but isn't it like. illegal to monetise fan content? is tumblr telling us to put like. fanfic and art and shit behind a paywall despite copyright? how many people are going to use post+ for that and get so completely fucked by it lmao
