Shocked silence filled the room, an aching wonder, and from some, a hatred.
"You're what?" At the sound of Alluras voice, Lance's grip on his boyfriend tightens.
"You heard him Allura" The way Lance spoke was sharp, he was disgusted by the way she spoke to him, as if Keith was a thing rather then a person.
"He's still Keith, not all Galra have to be blood thirsty. You have no reason to hate him for" glaring, he pulls Keith closer to him.
"I think I've made my opinion on the Galra quite clear- on all the Galra" with this, she stands up and leaves.

Glancing hopefully at the others, Lance prays they have a better reaction. Shiro (whom already knew) leaves, saying he'll go and talk to her.
Hunk is the first to speak.
"It- it doesn't bother me. You're still you, Keith. You've been Galra the whole time"
"I agree with Hunk. You're the same person" Pidge.
And then, ever so quietly, ever so weakly, in a voice wracked with fear:
"T-thank you... but I talked to the blade.. they said I would experience some... changes, now that I've unlocked the dagger..."
Carefully, Lance asks "What kind of changes..?"
And Keith goes on to explain how he'll feel emotions differently, sometimes he might change physically, and finally, how Galra had heats.
"They're dangerous, too" he goes on to explain "apparently you can go into this 'blood sickness', and once you have it's hard to get out..." Keith's face is solemn, apologetic.
"It's okay Keith, I'll help you through them" Lance says softly to him "you'll be alright."
Hunk seems to struggle with his words, but manages to get them out-
"I- I will too, you don't need to worry hun, Lance and I will help you.." Hunk moves next to the pair, on the side where Keith is. In response, Lance loosens his grip on Keith, so both him and Hunk can cuddle the boy.
"Do they have any type of scheduling, like monthly?" Pidge finally pipes up, wanting to know so she could put it on a tracker, if it did.
Keith nods. "Yeah... every two months, for a week...and I'm meant to start my first one in a few days" Keith folds his shoulders in, tries to look smaller then he is. "And there's another thing- while I'm on it, I can get... pregnant.. because they have alphas, omegas and betas, and I'm an Omega, at least that's what I've been told. Omegas have a second sex..."
"Keith, don't worry about a thing, alright? We're here to help you." Gentle words and touches continue for the rest of the night, Keith falling asleep nuzzled into both his boyfriends. They bid Pidge a goodnight, tell her to get some sleep, and take Keith to their shared room.
