[ i love getting to rewatch voltron in bits and pieces again YIPPEE! well io is suitably on the fucking edge of his seat because of this. it's a literal fucking nightmare, watching keith just go through this over and over again, watching ganymede stubbornly try to step in only to have himself used against keith in this particular way. he's biting his tongue the entire time and it's luck he doesn't just clean bite it right off. ]
Fuck - that was a hell of a trial they put you through... and for you to... [ awaken it anyway, despite all of their doubts, for you to finally rise to meet that which you have been seeking. he wants to praise him for his stubbornness, but also tell him what an idiot he is for challenging such odds.
he knows he'd have been just as stubborn. it's lucky, keith has the kind of heart he does.
[ i am going to fight you. POINTS AT THIS AND CRIES. anyways…
watching his trial back, it sure was rough! probably one of the hardest things he’s ever had to do, but it led him to finding out who he is. and ultimately changing him for the better. io would be right to call him stubborn.
and as a sort of tired laugh escapes him, they ate swallowed up into another memory. another one of io’s. and keith’s stomach drops.
as if he could feel the pain himself, he reaches for his own leg, and gasps for air. his eyes finding io’s once the memory fades. there is so much to process.
the loss of a limb. how even at the bring of death, he still directed treatment. and how… just like himself, someone was there to keep him present. keep him alert. make sure he didn’t die.
and then to see how he learned to walk again. it’s inspiring and keith wonders how he himself would have faired in that situation. ]

You’re stubborn as a bull, that’s for sure.
[ shakes his head. softer… ]
And strong as one too.
