feeling sad about krolia and keith…
feeling sad about krolia thinking about and dreaming about the day she gets to see her baby again, and when it happens she sees an almost adult who has been thrust into a war she tried to protect him from.
thinking about her desperately wanting to be a good mom but realizing she has no idea how to be, and that keith has grown up without one and doesnt need her in the ways she wishes he did.
thinking about keith desperately wanting a mom but when he meets her its been so long that he doesnt know how to be a son, doesnt know how to rely on other people for help.
thinking about krolia and keith desperately wanting to be mother and son but having no idea how, thinking about them being awkward and getting closer but it is never the type of relationship they dreamed about,
thinking about how they argue hard and it hurts because they are both broken puzzle pieces that no longer belong to the same puzzle bc there is a missing piece.
thinking about krolia being in pain every time she sees keith bc he reminds her of his dad and the life she could have had if she has stayed.
thinking about keith being in pain when he looks at his mom because she’s alive and he could have grown up loved and she was trying to protect him but it hurts and he wishes she stayed.
thinking about how tragic krolia and keith are and how much they want from each other with no way to achieve it because they dont know how to love freely and openly without fear,
thinking about her trying to tease keith but he takes it personally and she never does it again, thinking about them seeing parts of each other’s lives on the space whale and now they know each other but they still dont know each other at all.
thinking about keith having to tell krolia that his dad is dead and her being heartbroken and crying herself to sleep when keith is sleeping.
thinking about both of them and how sad they make me constantly…
thinking about how keith forgives her for leaving even if it still hurts but krolia cant forgive herself for it.
thinking about how both of them are scared to get to close to each other because it will hurt more if one of them is lost in the war,
thinking about keith crying himself to sleep when she leaves with kolivan to find more bom members because he didnt think she would leave him again, because he should be used to it by now.
thinking about her crying herself to sleep that night too because she didnt want to leave him but he had to stay with voltron
thinking about how they try but they never really have the relationship with each other they always wanted, there is to much pain and space and not knowing what to do or how to do it,
thinking about how they want so much yet get so little, they hurt each other and the cycle keeps repeating and repeating because she doesnt know how to parent a child who doesnt need a parent anymore and who never really had one, and he doesnt know how to be a son to someone who is so different yet so similar to him. they are the same yet different in every way
anyway lemme go sob real quick
