You fiddled with the hem of your shirt, eyes trained on your bitten nails. Leaning against the wall, you discreetly snuck longing glances at one particular person standing not thirty feet away from you. To you, it felt like you were separated by a lot more than just a few feet of wood. You lowered your head into your hands, heaving a sigh aimed at yourself.

Why Keith is actually 16+ in the S6 flashbacks and why he’s so small:

Okay, so lets start with this screenshot:

THIS IS NOT AT THE GARRISON. Look at the teacher, she’s in plain clothes, so are the students. This is a high school and Shiro is here to recruit students. Assuming the Garrison works like a Service Academy, it’s like a college and requires a high school diploma. The minimum age for service academies and ROTC programs is 17, and it’s safe to assume that that is the Garrison’s minimum age requirement too. I guess they might make exceptions for extraordinary students, but I honestly doubt it.

This next scene is also not at the garrison, and occurs shortly after the classroom scene:

Now, we know that is Keith’s bike. We also know he and that he can probably fly it at this point. Why does that imply he is at least 16? Because he lives in a group home, and any younger than that and there’s no way he would have a chance to get away and learn. At 16 he could get a license, which his caretakers couldn’t stop him from. Even with a license I doubt he has insurance though, meaning he can’t fly the thing in public.

My personal headcanon is that one of the workers at the home knew about his passion for flying and turned a blind eye when he snuck out to the desert to practice. This person is the same one who points Shiro in his direction, where he sees Keith fly for the first time and convinces him to join the garrison.

It’s this last scene that really has me convinced Keith is in his mid to late teens though:

Here, when he’s sitting outside the teacher’s office with the other kid he presumably got in a fight with. The other kid is obviously an older teenager, and is Keith’s classmate, meaning they if they aren’t the same age they must be at least close to it. How do we know? Look at the gold stripes on their shoulders. The strips mark rank, and presumably how long they’ve been there. They each have one stripe on each shoulder, marking them as younger students. Older students have two stripes. In the first episode the garrison trio all have two stripes on each shoulder, and so does Matt at the launch in Pidge’s flashback.

The stripes are also used for officers. Look at Shiro, in this scene he only has two, and the officer he’s defending Keith to has three, it’s his superior.  At some point Shiro gets promoted because in the picture from the Kerberos news report he has three.

Anyway, back to the point. In this scene Keith also talks about going back to the home. Home refers to a group home for children in foster care. Generally teens that get placed here, usually due to a lack of foster parents or because of behavioral issues, though there can be other factors. I’m not going to go into all that in this post, just wanted to note that these homes tend to house older kids because they are harder to place than younger ones.

So that’s why I believe Keith is 16+, but why is he so gosh darned tiny?

There are a few potential explanations for this:

Keith could just be a late bloomer, potentially due to his Galran heritage. We haven’t been given a lifespan for the Galra, so if they live longer and age slower they probably grow slower too. I mean, Krolia looks the same in the flashbacks as she does now, and 20 years have passed. Keith’s growth could be stunted due to lack of food. He was a foster kid, and it is quite possible he just didn’t get enough to eat, either because there wasn’t enough to go around, or because food was used against him as a punishment. One or two bad experiences could have left him scared to ask for more or take seconds even when offered.

He’s also half Galra. The Galra are also more muscled and most look like they have a very low body fat percentage. Muscle tissue burns two to three times as many calories as fat, meaning Galra need to eat a lot to maintain their weight, and kite need to eat even more, because they aren’t just sustaining what they have they’re adding to it. There’s also the possibility he needed vitamins and minerals to grow that couldn’t be found on earth. His caretakers may have unintentionally been underfeeding him because they were treating him like a human, not a Galra

So yeah, pre-Garrison Keith was tiny, but he didn’t stay that way:

Slytherin Keith in love with upper classmate Hufflepuff Shiro.

Imagine Keith being completly isolated in his first year of Hogwarts because many slytherins wouldn’t be his friend because his origins are unknown and other houses not wanting to get close because he’s a Slytherin. Keith feeling completly lonely, and never fighting the people that harass him, just completly isolating himself as a response. Until upper classmen Shiro hears some of the kids (either from slytherin or other house) harrasing Keith once again and stepping in to defend him. Keith is kinda shy but he’s just totally moonstruck by this beautiful hufflepuff student who just came to his rescue when he didn’t even knew him. Keith and Shiro becoming best friends after that.

warnings: oh god uh…female pronouns used… mentions of death what else is new… foreshadowed angst if you can spot it, but like honestly it’s 90% fluff

Shiro let the car roll to a stop in front of the park, his anxiety finally overtaking him, hands locked on the steering wheel, starting to shake. His day had gone to shit in threes; he’d been distracted during a flight simulator, forgotten to fill out vital mission reports, and finally, was uncharacteristically late to a Kerberos briefing, which had the general miffed and hostile through the entire thing. He was stressed beyond measure; he was really starting to wonder if this mission was a good idea for him. Shiro swore his hair was turning grey.

He didn’t know how long he had been sitting in his car when a tiny knock was heard at the window. He slid his eyes over, only to feel a reluctant smile worm across his face when he saw five-year-old Lilly smiling toothily at him from the window. You were holding her up, smiling softly at him, eyes already knowing he had a bad day. That’s what best friends were for. His heart leaped in his chest when he saw you, pattering happily. Like usual, he just squashed the feeling down and saved it to ruminate over later.

He’d known you for years; from that fateful day your fathers had introduced you, you with a scowl on your face as he held out his hand to shake. You’d hated him initially- his t-ball team had just beaten yours and you were unhappy about the fact- but once you’d discover your mutual interests aligned you’d been bound at the hip. Through years of school, you’d stood by him when he graduated top of his class at the Garrison; he was at your college graduation.

He’d been at your wedding as well, as much as it killed him to see you so beautiful and handed off to another person. But Shiro had made sure they were a top-notch human before he even considered giving his blessing, and even as he watched you walk down that rose petal strewn aisle, looking radiant and ecstatic, he knew you were happier than ever. That made patching the hole in his chest easier.
