Sensitive Sheith. They tire so much.

All this time Keith knew

He knew that Shiro’s days were numbered and his vitality would fade before his prime was over. He knew that Shiro had suffered when that stress was too much for his partner and they turned away from him. He knew that Shiro had forsaken safety and comfort for one last blaze of glory to achieve the dream he’d worked so hard for. He knew he may never see him again, and that every time he did, the clock was still ticking.

For a fiery, upstart, showoff with discipline problems, Keith has become one of the most compassionate characters I’ve ever seen. Despite his fear of abandonment. Despite what had happened to his father, and despite knowing that their time was limited, Keith never gave up on Shiro. He never encouraged him to abandon his dream or to give up.

Every time that Shiro faltered, Keith was at his side. Did he fear that each time might be the last? Did he fear that if he only let Shiro close his eyes that his dearest friend would leave him forever?

Lauren said!!!! In the AfterBuzz interview!! That Keith would have gone to space for shiro, because Shiro was his family. This is so soft, so pure. I love Lauren so much, she didn't have to add that!! Name me a purer ship then Sheith, Leo, I'll wait. Impossible.

I heard about this and I just went skimming through the episode to find and!!! It’s so sweet!! They were talking about how Keith told Pidge, “Everyone has families,” and the show runners didn’t have to mention Keith’s relationship with Shiro. But they did, so we get:

Lauren: “But he would have come out to space for Shiro, cause Shiro was his family.

Joaquim: “That is true.”

Lauren: “So he understands, I think, as much as [Pidge] does, about needing to ‘save that person in space.’” (source)

And like, this combined with “Shiro loves Keith” and the fact that he brought Keith to the Kerberos launch with him, like…what the hell was their backstory? How is it they grew so close, close enough to have found a home with one another? It’s just…this incredibly sweet thing. They both love each other very much and it warms my heard indefinitely,, 

Anyway literally anytime Lauren or Joaquim bring up Keith and Shiro’s bond completely unprompted because they’re just that close in canon,, it’s fucking amazing,,

You’re my greatest hope.
