Ouch.

What laptop is that? You might be able to replace the keycaps (assuming no damage underneath) which would fix some of the problem - but finding matching/compatible keys might prove tough, necessitating a full keyboard replacement.

You'll still have the discolouration between the keys, as that's part of the chassis.

It’s a HP 14” Chromebook. I’m not really worried about the discoloration, just getting the keys fixed ASAP. https://photos.app.goo.gl/8awaXMcLT1ZPZ5C46

This is not the sun. You must have placed something hot on the keys otherwise they do not melt so easily. And why only a few keys and not all? But you can always change the keys or better, get a new keyboard because spare keys are hard to find. This is really weird.
