This time from voltron bc i'm hyperfixated

I love Matt and i would die for him, and my wife loves Keith so

yeah they're both here

- matt is wildly codependent and he will just follow keith around anywhere. Quality time and acts of service are his main love languages so he just goes everywhere with keith. Keith jokes he had a puppy for a boyfriend and starts whistling to get matts attention, except it works too well and now he can't get matts attention any other way

- keith loves those model plane kits you can buy but he hates putting them together he just likes the models so for his birthday matt makes a bunch of the models for him

- Keith's main love languages are physical touch and gift giving so while matt follows him around everywhere he'll always be holding matts hand. And when they're stationary he'll be sitting on matts lap. You cannot separate them. Officers give them disapproving looks at the garrison but they ignore it so they give up eventually

- I love t4t rebelfire I can't lie so like. Them getting corresponding top surgery tattoos. Think about how cool that is

- I think I have said this before but keith absoloutely cannot play chess and matt loves chess so keith will play against him every time just because it makes matt smile when he wins and he's a sucker for that

- when keith gets tired his accent comes out (texan keith ml) and the first time matt heard it he just stopped still because he couldn't comprehend it and it always makes him just stop functioning completely

Birthday art for @rebelfire 🔥

The Demon & The Love Wolf lives in my brain rent free so I had to draw a little Lovesong as a thank you.

If you haven't read it, then I absolutely recommend it. If you *have* read it, then read it again. I often do!

Matt's an older brother, so of course he's going to use all of his years worth of experience annoying Katie to annoy Keith

It starts with random facts, at the most random moments, just to test how Keith will react. They would be just waking up and Matt would go "did you know sharks have two dicks"; when they're going to get breakfast "did you know that the term 'bug' referring to a computer malfunctioning was because of a moth"; when they're preparing to go to bed "did you know there's a condition where a person believes they’re dead? Like, fully dead, but their body just hasn’t noticed yet. They even stop eating or ask to be buried". Keith shudders and feels cold sweat every time he hears the words "did you know" out in the wild

Then, it escalates to jokes. Terrible, horrible, awful jokes. Worse than dad jokes. Like, the worst jokes you could ever think of:

"I was going tell you a joke about Nihilism, but it wouldn't matter anyway..."

"The name's Pavlov, ring a bell?"

"What do you call a circle of iron? A FERROUS WHEEL!"

Most of the time, Keith doesn't catch them. When he does, he just groans and covers his face, hoping to die (mind you, he's not being dramatic, he just misses peace and quiet)

When they start to get along, the physical ones begin. It's mostly unharmful stuff, like touching his right shoulder when he's actually standing on his left and then slapping him when he turns his head again, but it always ends with Keith punching Matt in a very harmful way

Unprompted singing the most random and annoying songs is his favorite one (Shiro accidentally let it slip in once that Keith hated with a burning passion the song "Tell me something good", and Matt would start singing it and dancing à la Will Schuester, and Keith would throw himself at him and pin him to the ground, twisting his arm until he says he's gonna stop)

When they become actual, real friends, Matt finally reaches the final level: messing with Keith's stuff. He never did at the beginning because he didn't want Keith to think he was bullying him or something, but now that there's a bond between them, he knows he has the green light (well, not really because Keith hates it, but he knows Matt isn't doing it maliciously, just to be annoying): he starts mixing his shoes, disarming the pairs and putting one flip-flop with a combat boot, a sneaker with a flip-flop, a combat boot with a sneaker, and so on; hiding Keith's alarm, so when it starts ringing he has to get up and frantically search for it to turn it down (and to throw it at Matt's head); and stupid stuff like that
