[Oh, it had. Keith had been dealing with those doubts for his entire life up to the point of meeting her. Nineteen years of thinking your mother walked out on you for no reason wasn't fun for a kid to grow up with, especially when your father was killed on the job before he could tell you the truth. Keith's temper was the result of a lot of repressed grief and resentment.
But he'd come through it, and, honestly, spending the two years in the quantum abyss had been a godsend. With he and his mother seeing each other's memories and pasts, experiencing it all firsthand, so much had come together and suddenly made sense. And they'd been able to grieve his father together. It had leveled Keith out so much. Allura would begin to see that here.]
Yeah. I do. [He gave her an understanding smile. Being alone, losing one's parents, it wasn't an easy thing to deal with, regardless of how it happened. Keith could still remember when she'd been force to destroy the AI because of Sendak's corrupted crystal leaving a virus in the Castle's computer system. He wasn't the tactile type, but... well, it was kind of his turn, wasn't it?
He reached over, putting his hand out for her.] I'm sorry you went through all that. [Honestly, he almost felt bad that he was getting a second chance with his mom and she wasn't with either of her parents. Like, why did he get that luck and she didn't?]
