Summary
James felt numb. He had given up hope in Keith’s survival a few months after Matt Holt had said Voltron disappeared and had pretty much told the Garrison not to contact him again. If Voltron, supposedly the greatest weapon in the universe, was gone – was so inconsequential to the Galra that they’d be focusing 100% on the Blade of Marmora and the rebel forces – what were the chances that Keith, or any of them, were still alive? He had never been able to fathom Commander Holt’s optimism, his belief that Voltron would return. Hope, Griffin had found, was pretty damn useless. So he hadn’t hoped. He had told himself that Keith was dead in space. A hero, yes, but one whose body wouldn’t ever be returned for burial. Je had made his peace with the fact that he’d never get to properly mourn Keith, and he had buried long ago any expectation that he and Keith might be reunited. He'd resolved himself to never let anyone know that he was morning anything more than the loss of a good team and a better weapon.
But now Keith was alive. Keith was back. And inevitably, they were heading towards a reckoning James had never imagined would come to be, not since he first saw the blue lion more than four years ago.
