Summary
''Keith -''
''No, it's fine. The point is that I do more harm here for everyone involved. Nobody stays, to the blade I'm means to an end. A soldier made to die in combat. And my brother, Shiro will have less to worry about with me gone. And with you all...I just - you all want a family. I don't know how to be that,''
''And so what? This felt like the better option to you,''
''Looks like it. Maybe I wanted to be the one to leave just this once,''
''And what stops everyone from feeling the way you did if you leave, Keith? What stops Shiro, the team, goddamnit what stops me, from feeling torn from losing you?''
''I don't know, alright? I don't know – I just can’t take it anymore! Don’t you see that? I need to –''

Summary
Father, there have been many, many things I remember from our times together, from the garden to our fun, from dinner with Mother to bedtime stories with Coran, from new dresses to new lessons I'd learn from my tutors, and of course you. But there was and will forever be the one thing that stood out: The stars. Father, I could never forget the stars. I see Altea in the stars, I see myself in the stars, and I see you, dear Father, peacefully resting in the stars. In times of desperation and loss and sorrow you told me the ones from above will help guide us into a new dawning era, a new burning sun of hope. I never forgot.
But I need someone to remind me.

Summary
“You know what Pidge said the other day? About you being a loner?” He decided to go straight to the point because he couldn’t handle going around it rambling with Keith looking at him like that.
Keith nodded. “Yeah, what about it?” His frown seemed to be saying, why are you bringing it up now?
“Just,” Lance made a vague wide gesture with his hands. “I guess it’s been bugging me. Do you really see yourself like that? I mean, if we’re talking past that broody vibe you’ve got going on. Do you still, even now?”
Keith’s frown deepened. “I’ve been alone my whole life.”
—
or: Lance had been watching Keith slowly pulling away from the team for months now and it wasn’t until Keith almost died that Lance realized how badly he messed up.
