i could go on for ages and ages about Klance as parents but to start, here are some headcanons lol (ps, it's a long one)

Keith and Lance end up having a surrogate for their first child. She's another person at the Garrison, a beautiful girl who was in class with Keith and Lance. Several years after the war, she reconnects with the two of them and they ask her to help them out. She agrees 100%, it's the least she could do for two of the people who saved the universe.

During the pregnancy, Lance starts to get really nervous about being a father. Sure, he's a great uncle who is incredible with kids but the thought of having his own children is terrifying?

What if he's a terrible dad?

Keith is like, "It's gonna be okay. We're both new at this but our child is going to be raised in an incredibly loving environment and we have so much support."

Lance feels encouraged by this and he knows that their child is going to know all sorts of love.

Keith and Lance themselves are examples of passionate romantic love- they love each other very much and care about one another. Similar to Adam/Curtis and Shiro, and how Hunk and Pidge love each other as best friends. Pidge and Matt are great siblings, Keith and Adam have an incredible 'guardian/child' bond

This kid is going to KNOW that they're loved and exactly what love looks like.

Keith is a natural at parenting, which comes as a surprise to many. Shiro's not surprised, Keith just wants to give his child the childhood he couldn't have. Keith is terrified that his children are going to lose him and Lance and he wants to make sure they feel safe and loved.

I also think Keith is actually pretty good at balancing what's appropriate for kids and what's not. Motorcycle rides? Yeah, not yet. Pokemon cards? Cool beans, let's play, kiddo.

Lance on the other hand is like, "my 2 year old wants to cut her own food? independent! nice!"

Keith: "Oh dear god, Lance, give her a plASTIC KNIFE AT LEAST-"

Ahh, Coran, what a gorgeous man! The man, the myth, the legend- he's been arrested or imprisoned on almost 300 planets in his lifetime. Yes, there's a specific list called the Smythe List that circulates around the universe from time to time. It's all the places that Coran has been blacklisted from.

He loves to tease the paladins about their ears. It's worse than Allura as well. He likes to pinch them and tug on them playfully- makes jokes and fun and such. Nobody minds anymore.

He tries Human food as soon as he gets to Earth, like authentic Human food (not Hunk's castle hybrid food) and he cries. He can't imagine eating anything else.

With exception to some nostalgic Altean food of course

He constantly says he doesn't play favorites with the paladins but he obviously does and it's Lance. It's not that he dislikes anyone though, he just likes Lance the best.

He can't help but see Lance as a son? He knows Lance sees him as an Uncle but he doesn't mind- Lance is the best person to sit in for his son.

When Coran was very young, he had a child with an Altean woman. He wasn't able to marry her, she had ended up passing from a disease after having their child but he vowed to take care of his child.

He was the best dad ever as well.

Allura doesn't remember it, she was very young when the child was born, but they played a lot and Alfor was so kind to Coran and his child.

When the child passed, they were only a few years old, passing from a disease brought in from a Galran prisoner. Coran wasn't able to let it go for a long time and it hurt a lot. Since then, he's been alright but Lance is most definitely his favorite and his son.

Coran's mustache is inhumanly soft. In fact, it's ingalranly soft as well. Like, nobody knows how or why but it's the softest tuft of hair any of the paladins have ever felt His head of hair isn't like it though- only his mustache.

Coran loves movies, Altean romances are his favorites, but after coming to Earth, he finds that he really enjoys Earth movies as well. One in particular he loves because Lance and Keith had invited him over for dinner one night. He had fallen in love with Earth movies after that.

He also loves the cinema! Going to the movies and eating popcorn when you're getting intimate with a big screen? Coran fucking loves it.

This post features Lotor's Generals: Axca, Zethrid, Narti, Ezor

Axca:

Axca is really level headed and she's proud of it. She considers it her biggest strength up until she gets to Earth. Then things go sideways for her demeanor real fast.

While Earth is overwhelming, it's not the planet that throws her off. In fact, it's not even humanity or anything. It's a single person.

Lance's sister.

Regardless of Veraxca and such, Axca is thrown off by this whole ass woman who is just,,,, so incredible? Like, Axca is blown away by how strong and powerful Veronica is?

She could kick Axca's ass and Axca would thank Veronica

(we all would).

She has to work on not melting when Veronica talks to her ever. Again, not even romantic, Axca just has a crush on Veronica in all forms. She wants to be Veronica's friend so bad.

SO BAD.

She's really independent and has been her entire life. As a kid, she was always trying to do things herself, and that included EVERYTHING. From making food to catching bugs and animals outside, she was able to pick up a lot of skills and talents quickly.

Her parents died when she was young- at least her dad did. She had never met her mother but the stories from her village reminded her that her mom was also a fucking badass.

Axca's actually a really friendly person when you get to know her. And she's incredibly affectionate and does anything she can to keep her friends feeling good.

When Axca meets the paladin's mothers, they all take her in quickly. Rosa loves Axca and everyone is so relieved (especially vero). Talia, Hunk's mom, is so happy to meet another friend of the paladins, especially after Hunk and Axca saved each other's hides a few times. Colleen thinks Axca is an excellent addition to the group. And Aiko, Shiro's mom, is so sososososoo kind about the whole thing. She's so excited to meet another savior of the universe.

Axca loves being part of the whole 'mom club' because of course, she didn't have her mom growing up. And Krolia?

Krolia has always been by Axca's side and never leaves. She supports Axca 100% because, "You saved my son."

Zethrid, Narti, and Ezor below!

Someone (@mothman-misato) had mentioned in the tags of my 'Lance Headcanons: Touch' post that they really liked the concept of touch-starved klance in general and I wanted to throw a few more headcanons out there (because I really like the topic too!!)

Keith is initially the only one who has sensory overload really bad. He doesn't just get it from touch but Keith overloads from too much noise, weird textures and tastes, bad smells, things like that.

He also has really bad auditory processing issues that cause him to not be able to focus on the foreground sound. Background noise can be really difficult for him so the team has to try and speak one-at-a-time, especially over comms.

He also requests subtitles on everything, and everyone is really cool with it because they want Keith to enjoy whatever their watching. Without subtitles, his brain can't focus on the dialogue. Only on the popcorn being chewed, Lance shifting beside him, Shiro snoring after half an hour, and Allura's chitchat through the movie.

That's not the point though- he gets overloaded really easy. That also applies to touch and how much he can touch people.

Keith is touch-starved naturally, living in a desert alone will do that to a person. Lance on the other hand was not always touch-starved. Only in space did that start to affect him really bad.

He misses hugs from his family, kisses from his Mami, stuff like that. Hunk gives him hugs and the other paladins are sure to pat his shoulder or bump knees.

And then Keith and Lance start dating and the whole touch thing gets easier.

Lance loves to touch Keith and vice versa. He wants to hold Keith's hand and touch his hair and kiss his mouth and shoulders and count the freckles on Keith's face.

He's trying to touch Keith's knees, bump them together. He wants to kick his foot under the table or lie against him on the couch. He wants Keith to play with his hair when his head is in Keith's lap- he loves being touched.

But he gets overloaded really easily if there's more than just touching.

Keith is touch starved too but also touch repulsed. It's too much too fast too often. Even holding hands can become a hassle when Lance's palms get sweaty and then Keith's gloves get a weird texture and suddenly he doesn't know if they should fold his fingers or interlock them.

So they stop holding hands.

Lance starts to fidget a lot when they're kissing. Only because it's never just kissing. Keith is in his lap or he's in Keith's lap so they're pressed from hips to chest. His hands can only rub against Keith's shirt for so long before they're tired of the texture-

Skin to skin contact is the best for them.

And sometimes it gets too hot and you can only take off so many clothes and then it's too much and Lance is finished.

Keith respects that, he gets done eventually too.

And so after they're both overloaded on touches and cuddles, they'll lie on the bed or on the floor next to each other and count the stars on the ceiling.

They link their pinkies when they do it though

And they count the stars or make constellations. Lance will sing sometimes or make jokes to hear Keith laugh. Keith just compliments Lance so he can look over and see the blush.

Sometimes though, sensory overload can look different, or at least dealing with it.

Sometimes, when Keith is feeling overwhelmed from the day (Hunk just talked his ear off while Katie listened to music and worked on her project and Shiro wanted to train and Allura kept asking for him and oh my god, he needs a break-)

He'll go to Lance's room, who's lying in bed on his phone, playing a game or reading a book or something.

He'll shuffle under the covers and get really close, clinging to Lance as he breathes in the clean laundry smell, closing his eyes to focus on the quietness of Lance's room.

It's senses he can control.

Lance's room is quiet, no background noise. The occasional puff of breath from Lance's nose when he 'laughs' at something, or the tap against the screen. Otherwise, it's quiet and slow.

"Feeling better," he'll ask, tilting his head down to look at Keith, who's almost passed out on his chest, listening to Lance's heartbeat.

"Yeah," Keith will whisper back.

"Good," Lance hums, moving to brush his hand through Keith's hair gently.

So, while it's obvious that Hunk is a majority of Lance's impulse control, we find that he's actually everyone's impulse control, Shiro entirely included in this. In fact, Hunk probably has to keep Shiro at bay more than anybody else.

Shiro's really impulsive, even when he puts thought into something and when he has his mind set, it's hard to switch it up. Hunk is there to really help him walk through it before Shiro's too far gone with an idea.

Hunk and Shiro love singing together. While Shiro can't bake or cook for shit, he likes to do his reports after missions in the kitchen with Hunk, humming along to some alien songs they had learned during their time in space.

Hunk thinks of their jam sessions as good bonding for himself and Shiro.

It also makes Shiro more human than an idol, how Lance sometimes sees him. Sure, Shiro was a superior for Hunk but now he's also a friend.

While Hunk is Shiro's impulse control, Shiro is Hunk's anxiety control. The team laughs and makes jokes about Hunk being a worry wart but in reality, he has really crippling anxiety. Like, it's not really a joke.

Nobody realizes that until Hunk finally confides in Shiro about it, who suffers from PTSD. He understands it and so when Hunk is feeling anxious or has a panic attack, he goes to Shiro. Shiro calms him down.

They go through breathing exercises and then Shiro tells Hunk stories about his life before the Garrison and what he wants after they save the Universe. He tells Hunk about raising Keith and about Adam, how much he loves Adam. He also tells Hunk about his family in Japan, something that even Keith doesn't know much about.

It helps out a lot as a distraction.

They do it when Hunk bakes, a good stress-free activity to calm down.

Shiro and Hunk talk about Klance all the time.

All. The. Time.

They're so excited that their friends are finally getting together and while it's weird at first, they really appreciate how the two balance one another out. It also gives more silly conversation for Hunk and Shiro.

Hunk: "I think we need an adult."

Everyone: *looks at Shiro*

Shiro: "You are all over 18! You're all adults!"

Shiro and Hunk have a secret set of words they use in conversation with the rest of the paladins and it's fucking hilarious. They're all codewords for stuff and they end up cracking up during conversation every time.

Except for when it's an accident and they slip up during a serious conversation.

"Lance is in really bad shape," Coran frowns. "He'll need to be in the pod for at least a week."

"A week," Hunk asks, bewildered. "That's so long though- there's gotta be something we can do to help, right? Don't you have a medication or like, a salve?"

Shiro can't help it, he's hiding giggles, which is earning him dirty looks from the team.

'Salve' is their stupid word for 'Coran's Slipperies' so when Hunk says it, Shiro's biting back chuckles, knowing this situations incredibly serious.

"Shiro," Hunk hisses. "It's not-" he's also choking back a giggle. "It's not funny."

Everyone is mildly annoyed by this.

ohohohoohho boy, i love Regris so much, so does Keith

When Keith first starts with the Blade, while he's excited and eager to find out more about himself, he doesn't fucking know anyone except Kolivan.

He's still getting used to the alien thing and especially his Galra heritage and who's there to help? Regris.

Sarcastic ass, rude as hell, but helpful Regris.

He's an asshole to Keith at first and it reminds Keith of his rivalry with Lance. Although, this isn't a rivalry, Regris just thinks that Keith isn't all that Kolivan chalks him up to be.

At first, it's because Keith is so small. Compared to the other Blades and other Galra, Keith is so small and he's not very intimidating. That is until Regris sees him fight for the first time and then he's a little bit impressed.

Anyway, Keith doesn't know anything about his Galra side or what things are normal or not. Even his Human side, he's not sure what's normal or not so Regris is able to help with that, even if he's a hybrid as well.

Keith purrs, they find out. While that's a Galra thing, it's not a Regris thing. Nevertheless, it's cool. Keith doesn't have a tail but he does have sharp teeth. Regris also points out what Keith's eyes do during battle, going yellow and sharp. And while Keith refuses to believe it, his hair is a little bit more purple than black.

Keith and Regris compare human things they know about and talk about how bullshit a lot of them are. Keith was always seen as kind of an odd kid and he doesn't get a lot of social formalities for humans anyway so the Blade feels natural.

Everyone is different.

People thinking cats and dogs are cute? Sure, Keith thinks Kosmo is great and all but he's not going to fall over or bend over backwards for the wolf. He's a wolf. Regris agrees.

Keith, as well as Regris are both ambidextrous so that always prods the topic of being 'right handed' or 'left handed'. Regris insists that people should just use both but Keith has to tell him that a lot of people suck at using both.

Regris doesn't understanding crying when Keith does it the first time. A lot of aliens don't cry actually so when he sees fluid leaking from Keith's eyes, he's a bit confused.

Don't get me wrong, Regris gets being sad or upset. He knows what emotions are but crying itself, he doesn't understand. Keith tells him it's how people express their sad emotions. It's how the body gets rid of bad feelings. He also skims over the concept of how guys crying is bad when he desperately wipes his eyes.

"If it's healthy and normal, why are you trying to hide it?"

"It's just something humans do- dudes shouldn't cry."

"That's bullshit."

The two of them have translators on their suits, because Regris doesn't speak English and Keith doesn't speak... Whatever Regris speaks. It's helpful but sometimes, the translators have a hard time with a certain word and then trying to explain something in different terms gets interesting.

"Sushi? Uh, it's like... Raw fish wrapped in seaweed and rice?"

"That sounds disgusting."

"It's really not, I promise!"

When Regris first makes it to Earth, Keith promptly has him try sushi and while he's not impressed, he also doesn't hate it.

The first time Keith hiccups, Regris loses his shit. What the hell was that noise and why did you do it? Keith isn't sure why humans hiccup though so he has to call the castle of lions and ask Coran.

Coran also doesn't know what tf a hiccup is so Keith asks Lance, who is more than well-versed in hiccups.

"Your diaphragm-"

"What's a diaphragm" Regris asks.

"Part of your body probably, shut up and listen," Lance frowns. "Your diaphragm spasms and causes-"

It's boring and Regris doesn't pay attention the whole time.

The first time Keith zones out, Regris is alarmed because, "Where did you go?" Obviously Keith was there but he had to explain he got lost in his thoughts.

"How does one get lost in their thoughts? They're in your head."

There are a lot of Earth things that Keith says that Regris doesn't understand. Lots of idioms and such that he either explains or simply puts, 'it's an earth saying'.

"Yeah, Regris! That was a piece of cake, hell yeah!"

"A piece of cake? It was a nuclear core reactor, Keith. Are you alright?"

Or alternatively, "Oh wow, it's raining cats and dogs out here."
