I’ve seen a lot of Klance head canons in my day (you have to imagine me saying this whilst sitting in a rocking chair on someone’s verandah) and a lot of them seem to focus a lot on Lance, which is great! And I get it! Lance is more extroverted and probably does the BIG romantic gestures, but I bet Keith is also a really rad boyfriend. So here’s some boyfriend Keith head canons.
Relationships are very important to Keith because of how much time he has spent in isolation. He’s very sentimental and saves ticket stubs from movie dates. He hangs flowers upside down so they dry and he can keep them. There’s a box of these trinkets filled with cute notes Lance has left on his door, a cool rock Lance gave Keith because he said it was the same colour as his eyes, a band-aid (gross) that Lance put on his wrist before they started officially dating.
He starts wearing his hair up more because he knows Lance likes it. He even buys some matching bobby pins and Lance wears his set proudly around the ship.
Koala boyfriend.
Knows all of Lance’s most ticklish spots.
Does drills with Hunk in secret to learn all of Lance’s siblings, aunts, uncles, grandparents, parents, etc. He gets Lance to teach him how to sew (“oh, I’m just getting some holes in my gloves and think it would be nice to repair them myself”) and he cross-stitches Lance’s family tree for christmas.
He adds an additional branch for team Volton cuz they’re family too
Lance cries for an hour.
When no ones around he’ll say HORRIFICALLY dirty things to Lance. Half of them don’t make sense. And it’s kind of a joke that Keith has no idea what sexual innuendoes are. Sometimes he’ll know he has the euphemism wrong, but he’ll whisper it to Lance anyway just to hear him laugh.
REALLY likes Lance’s legs.
And smooth tummy.
Happily big spoons the night away.
Protective boyfriend.
Lance makes him a t-shirt with his own face on it as a joke…. but Keith… wears it? Like a lot?
Some alien - “The blue one is on your shirt?”
Keith - “… Yeah?”
Lance is both flattered and mortified.
Someone once made a very inappropriate pass at Lance and kept touching him and cornering him. Lance tried to quietly slip away and not cause a scene when Keith just HEADBUTTED THE GUY. Gross dude dropped to the ground and didn’t get up for a while.
Hugs from behind a lot.
Velcro boyfriend.
Will grow up to be that old man, who when he opens his wallet, a cascade of plastic sleeves filled with photos falls out.
So I’ve seen a few people make mention to the fact that in season three, we could possibly get two leaders in Voltron and I honestly think that could be true, based on a few things that I’ve noticed…
In the beginning of the show we saw this
Keith and Lance both saving Shiro in some way has symbolism. Keith was struggling to hold Shiro up by himself (almost like the future weight of leading the group)
And then Lance came in at the perfect time to help him, taking some of the weight off of his shoulders
Here’s another form of symbolism
They’re all lined up and working together to defeat the enemy, this is definitely showing something. But it’s mainly the colours. Is it really a coincidence that Lance and Keith are red and blue while Shiro is purple? Shiro must represent something between them, maybe what they equal together
But other than Shiro, there have been moments dropped around the show that also prove that Lance and Keith make a good team and work well together
Like for example, their bonding moment
(oh look, more purple…interesting….)
Lance literally said “We did it, we are a good team” here
And on a small side note, during some moments with Keith, Lance has been shown to be a good leader, someone that Keith needs around to help him (like with Shiro in ep 1)
This scene here when Keith was ready to run into fight without even a second thought really proves that
Lance stops him and says to think things through (giving a better plan,) which is essential when leading a group
It’s almost like they balance each other out, Keith is impulsive while Lance is decisive, making their team level-headed which is similar to Shiro’s persona (red equals danger, while blue equals calm, making purple which is a combination of both?)
Then there was this elevator scene, which I believe was more than just fan service
They literally did the impossible by getting out of there together, blatantly showing, even though they don’t always get a long
they definitely do make a good team when it counts
Here too
This is one of the best moments I’ve seen them work together. There have been others too where they put aside their differences and help one another when it’s important
And recently I’ve heard that now that Shiro’s gone, Lance is going to become more serious and show more of a leadership role, just like Keith will have to as well
And this small scene we got from the trailer shows that. They all look very serious and the stance’s may be this way to make room for everyone in the shot, but there’s just something about Lance and Keith
They both look just like Shiro here and I don’t think that’s a coincidence at all.
