Just an aesthetic for you all to look at.

Third POV
Keith hadn't been paying attention for the whole journey, he was way to concerned about how he would be able to help his mentally and physically damaged boyfriend and if he wanted to be more than boyfriends.

He fiddled with the blade that his father had given him when he realised how stupid it was to bring his knives with him, especially with a self-harming person aboard.

The purple blade twirled around in his hand, the unique metallic surface glistened in the blue light of the Lion. The pilot seat was so much more comfortable then the one that Red had.

Despite Keith wanting to take his Lion with them, he knew that it was not in the best interests of the universe. The paladins may be assholes but they still are the ones responsible for defending the universe, and that means they need the Lions.

In all truth, once they had landed on a safe and hospitable Keith was going to send Blue back to the castle. The older male wanted to get his new family away from the stress and pain of war, this was going to be the best way he could help Lance.

So yes, that meant no Lions.

A bright flash of light came into Keith's vision and he lifted his gaze from the blade to the planet that was now in front of him.

The planet was filled with soft pastel colours that gave the appearance of a light pink marshmallow from a distance. On the surface of the world you could clearly see a large village that was surrounded by a river of baby blue.
Clouds of pale lilac floated in the gentle sky and there was a faint sparkle as gemstones peeked through the ground.

The whole planet gave off a calm and safe appearance that Keith, and obviously Blue, knew would be the best possible thing for both Lance and little Caspian.

As Blue started descending to the village Keith got up and walked over to the two sleeping beauties. He wanted to get Lance out of there and into a new home without waking him up, so that when he does wake, it will be to see a beautiful planet rather than the metal walls of a Lion. No offence.

Blue touched the surface of the planet and thank goodness Lance was completely exhausted otherwise Keith was sure that the younger person would wake up.

Keith lifted his boyfriend and new son off the bed and began walking out of the Voltron Lion. He would come back for the bags later.

Once he stepped outside, he was greeted with a mass of cat like aliens around him. The people of the planet gasped out in shock upon seeing, not one, but three Galra.

The half Galra's eyes widened and he remembered that he and Lance both looked and were Galra; not to mention Caspian as well.

"Please! We mean you no harm." Keith sounded a little frantic but tried his best to remain calm, trying not to wake Lance up.

An elderly woman stepped forward, she had a walking stick in one hand and a purple gem of some kind in the other. Her pastel yellow fur was short and a little ratted. The cat like ears were drooped slightly from old age and her tail reminded Keith of Caspian's and Lance's.

"Why have you come?" Her voice was stern but also very welcoming. "We come seeking a safe place to live were I can bring my boyfriend back to good health and we can raise a family, together." There was no point in hiding anything, if he wanted their help, he had to be completely honest.

The women gave a warm smile and looked at the sleeping Galra in Keith's arms. "You and your mate can stay; now come." Mate? Keith was perplexed at what the yellow cat had meant.

He followed the lady as the rest of the village walked with them as well. Even with the three of them being Galra, the villagers did not seem all that afraid; more curious then anything.

It was a very short walk to the large village and the old lady had stopped at a humble little house that was painted a soft pale purple. The lady used the stone in her hand to open the door like some kind of magic.

"This village welcomes you with open hearts and we trust that you will respect our ways and also the people that live here." The ex Red Paladin gave her a curt nod. "This is where you will live."

Although Keith couldn't understand the open kindness of the people, he didn't question it, he was happy to accept anything positive so he can help his love.

He carefully walked into the one room home, placed Lance and Caspian on the beg in the corner and walked back outside to get the bags from Blue.

——

With all of the bags out of the Lion, minus the knives, Keith stood quietly in front of her. Taking a deep breath he looked her deep in the glowing yellow of her eyes.

"Go back to the Castle and tell them nothing."
