Keith: "So, you're part Galra?" Shiro asks me with confusion in his words. "I.... am." He smiles. "Don't be so down about it, Keith. It doesn't change the way I think about you." His words don't really calm me. What will the others think.... what will Lance think? He puts his hand on my shoulder. "You have nothing to worry about. You are a paladin of Voltron, and a friend of the team." I smirk. "People get rejected but those they love the most for being different." We know better than anyone. His face goes grim. "If they reject you Keith you must overcome it. Be the better person." My eyes widen. Be the better person?

Lance: I hope Kei- they are OK. Hunk notices my worry. "You OK, Lance?" I nod and try to hide my feelings. "Awesome as ever." He sarcastically scoffs. "Yep, you're OK." Pidge groans. "The connection of Keith's lion keeps changing." She mutters under her breath. I walk over curiously. "What's going on, Pidge?" She shows me her screen as it monitors the red lion and a male's holographic body. "Is that Keith?" She nods. "Yes, but of course you'd know what his body-" I close her mouth. "Nope. Not gonna start that. I'm being serious here." She looks at me surprised, and looks at the monitor as she points at the moving waves. "Keith's connection with Red it ever-changing like everyone else, but it's now changing too drastically and too frequently for my liking. Something is happening to him." Her words crush me. K-Keith? I look over at the black holes. Please.... come back. I don't know what.... I don't want to know a life where we aren't a team. I'll tell you I remembered the bonding moment. I'll give you my blueberry pocky. You can even take a look inside Blue! Please! I start to pace desperately waiting. Then, there is an explosion. My eyes widen in fear. "Keith!?" Pidge frantically goes to Coran. "We need visual on them!" Oh no! We check around, and after some time we see a figure coming out. Allura gasps, "It's the Red lion!" I feel relief. Keith; you're alright.

Keith: "Wait what!?" I hear their surprise as they learn I am Galra, but there is only one person that I look at. I see his chiseled face as his widened eyes look at my blade, then me, then back at my blade. I start to feel nervous. Please.... please accept me! "Disgusting." I look to see Allura as her eyes look at me with hatred. Shiro jolts. "Princess-" I shake my head, and he stops. Lance notices the tension, and walks over to me; placing his hand on my shoulder. "Being Galra doesn't matter. You're Keith, nothing has changed." He giggles, "You're still the lone wolf with the stupid smile, those dumb eyes seeing something that we can't, and that stupid, stupid smile." His eyes look through me as he speaks. My face becomes flushed and my legs start to feel like they're going to give out. "L-Lance." "Yeah you're still a paladin and friend!" Pidge adds as they all walk over and hug me; well, everyone but Allura. I smile almost crying. "Thanks guys." My eyes wander as I see all of their smiling faces, but what hits my heart is Lance. He winks; making my mouth quiver into a quirky smile. I've been accepted!
