Klance birthday
Okay okay here me out
I’m pretty sure that Keith was in foster homes when he was kid (we know his mother is galra and he was surprised to see his father. Read: he disappeared when Keith was a child) Also, he doesn’t have a Texan accent any more, even though his father did, which suggests that he moved around a lot and it was lost.
So, maybe because was moved around schools a lot he was held back a year to make up for it academically.
We know that Lance’s birthday is soon and we all know that if Lance finds out he’s older than Keith than he’ll gloat about it FOREVER.
Could you imagine Lance rubbing it in his face all day, making all these jokes (when I was your age,, you shouldn’t speak to your elders like that,, I am older therefore superior etc) and Keith just silently laughing bc???
No but just imagine Lance’s face when Keith tells him that he was held back which makes him a year older than him. My poor soft boy would actually be heartbroken
(And then cue Keith making the exact same jokes Lance made in order to mock him)
