Summary
Okay, breathe. Just breathe. Gotta keep breathing. It's not like this is the first time I've been locked in a dark room. It was the first time that it had been quite this dark, and the first time that it happened on an alien planet with a gaping hole in his leg, but that was beside the point.
OR
An injured Keith is imprisoned by Galra-hating aliens, but the flashbacks to his childhood are the worst part.

Summary
“Enough!” Allura’s voice rang out over everyone else. “Perhaps we cannot prove his true motives, but one thing is certain, he cannot be trusted. Coran, Lance, escort him downstairs to a cell. We will decide what to do with him at a later date.”
---------------------------
How the Galra reveal could have gone, if Allura and the team had reacted much worse. There will be a happy ending, but not before there's a lot of angst and whump.

“I wonder what he’d think,” the lieutenant began, as if reading her thoughts, “if he knew you were here. If he realized that you had the power to make this stop, that all of this pain was your fault.”
————————————————
Pidge didn’t want to be tortured. She wanted to watch Keith be tortured even less.

So, yeah. He was dying. That was a thing. Even if the other Paladins could find him and get to him, they probably wouldn’t be quick enough, not with the way he was losing blood.
————————————
Keith and Red crash land in the middle of a battle, and neither of them may ever be the same.

A crowd-favorite Whumptober fic, now with a brand new continuation!!

Summary
He was alone, and alone was what he’d always been meant to be. Better to go ahead and remove himself from the equation now, before everyone else had the chance to casually do it for him.
--------
I don't know if 4 1 fics are still acceptable or if they were ever cool to start with, but here's the only one I've ever written, regardless. Four times Keith was homeless, plus one time he realized he didn't have to be.

Summary
Lance really wasn’t sure that they could afford to wait for help, even for a day. Those guards weren’t going to let up on hurting Keith anytime soon, it didn’t seem. The next time, they might very well kill him.
It was bad enough being stuck on the other side of that glass, watching them torture him. Lance wouldn’t ever be able to forgive himself if he sat there and let him die.

Summary
When Keith crashed his ship into the shield, he didn't expect to wake up. Now he's not sure if he has, or if he's stuck inside some kind of nightmare. This body and this life can't be his now, right?

Summary
I've been writing generic, nameless snippets for Whumptober, but suddenly realized that with little effort I could change the majority of them to be about Keith. So here you go: a bunch of random short blurbs with no context of Keith getting hurt.
Now with a bit of whump for some of the other paladins, too!
Shiro whump - chapters 1 and 19
Lance whump - chapters 9 and 26
