Summary
There's a lot to deal with growing up during and after a war; and even happy endings aren't always happy
Mostly stand alone one-shots following the paladins (and Coran) adapting to the world during and after the war, including the struggles of forming and keeping together families
-
Hello and welcome to my longer and sadder version of Voltron, where the war lasts even longer and everyone deals with their shit but not always in good ways or a timely manner
Now with a short playlist!

Summary
There are two Lances. There’s the Lance who pokes and prods at Keith, who shows up uninvited with sharp words and devilish smirks. And, there's the Lance in front of him now. The one leaning against the wall with a faraway look in his eye. The one who appears at night with a smile and one of Hunk's cookies. Who talks about his mom with a fierce, burning love. Who sits in the observatory, a little too close to Keith than necessary, and makes up new constellations.
Keith doesn't understand him.

Summary
After working too long in a soul-crushing corporate job, Keith finally caves to Pidge's insistence on working with them out in the middle of the Great Smoky Mountains. Keith, desperate to regain his artistic inspiration, packs up all his stuff and moves out to a desolate, phone connection-less summer in the mountains with his best friend. Along the way, he stumbles across a mystery that has him hiking all over the forest. The only catch? Pidge didn't mention that he'd be living a twenty mile hike away from them, in a cabin with another ranger - Lance, with the Earth-shattering smile, with the dozens of individually named plants in his garden, with the mediocre cooking abilities, and the magical skills on his guitar. So maybe Keith will rediscover his ability to paint, or maybe Lance will fry all of his nerve-endings before he's able to. Who knows?
Alternate description: A brief obsession with Firewatch and a few too many google searches got me really invested in the Smoky Mountains, and here we are.

Summary
“Hey, did you know that I saw a mermaid once?” Lance says, gaze fixed on the ocean. The breeze combs through his hair, tugs the sleeve of his shirt off his shoulder. In the half-light, his eyes shine like moonstone, smooth skin dark as ink. The sight of him steals Keith’s breath away.
“You won’t believe in the Loch Ness Monster but you believe in mermaids?” he asks, exhaling on a shaky, disbelieving laugh. Lance turns to him, his smile a light in the dark.
“I’ll prove it to you.”

Summary
“I’d be a shit boyfriend,” Keith says, begging Lance to see what’s in front of him. The problem’s always Keith, his inner workings displacing him just to the left of everyone else—a Venn diagram of Keith versus others that slides further apart with every new data point until it’s just two circles. “I don’t care about dating stuff. And I can’t—you know how I am.”
“Yeah, I like how you are,” Lance says.
“And I care a lot about you,” Keith shoots off like an accusation. “We can be boyfriends if you want because it doesn’t matter to me. Dating’s even farther off my radar than sex was.”
—
After spontaneously hooking up at Keith's request, they start dating for real at Lance's. What could go wrong? Everything, Keith's sure, but he'll do his best for Lance. Snapshots spanning Keith's first relationship, with Lance, during a space war.Series

Summary
Lance turns to face the window and starts to work on removing his chest plate. "I don't know about you, dude, but I'm tired. Can we do this later?"
Lance hears what he can only call a growl behind him, and the hair rises on the back of his neck. His skin tingles and he has to bite down on the inside of his cheek to bring the sudden frenzy of thoughts to a stop. Wow, okay. That's… something. "Your 'later' is never."
"That works, too!" Lance chirps. The chest plate comes off, and he tosses it to the side with the others. He starts to fiddle with his belt, but Keith's next words have him freezing.
"Why did you kiss me?"

Summary
He totally lied to Shiro. He doesn’t want to be alone. His failures aren’t gone—they simply settled to the bottom of him like sediment. But now the sediment rises, polluting the waterways as it lingers within him, thick and irremovable.
How sure are the doctors that they removed that parasite from his body? What if a piece is still in there, clinging to life within Keith’s muscle, feeding off the blood that pumps through his veins, waiting to strike? He's desperate to open his arms back up himself. To peer at his veins, to pick through his tendons; to ensure not a trace of that monster remains.
OR
Having escaped Bob's game show, the team is left to deal with the lasting repercussions.

Summary
Lance’s posture has gone from somewhat respectable to bad to worse, and his attention span is slowly but surely reaching its breaking point, when the door in the back of the room slides open.
Blue and gray and black. Long, dark hair. A familiar set of eyes. The same faded scar carved along his cheek.
Lance jerks upright, nearly jumping out of his chair.
“I’m filling in for Kolivan.”
The words strike right through Lance’s sternum. And he didn’t even have his defenses up. He didn’t have time to prepare.
Although somewhere deep down, he knows that no time in the world could’ve prepared him for seeing Keith again.
or: Being stuck with his ex at a diplomatic conference for a solid month is super cool and very fun. Because Lance is over him. Obviously. He so is.

Summary
Shane wakes up on Tuesday at 5:26 AM on game day in Boston, four minutes before his alarm goes off. Shane wants it to be Wednesday. But no matter what, Shane wakes up on Tuesday at 5:26 AM on game day in Boston, four minutes before his alarm goes off.
”Fuck,” he croaks. “Fuck, fuck, fuck.”
Chapter 1: Shane wakes up on the same Tuesday over and over again after leaving Rozanov in a rush. Tuesday is his second least favourite day of the week, so he's not really happy about it.
Chapter 2: Ilya notices Shane acts strangely. He just never remembers.

Summary
Lance tipped his head back and looked up at the tall ceiling of the ballroom. It was something he couldn’t help but do now that he was an experienced sniper. He followed the line of two pillars up and up, past the balcony and into the rafters. There—that was the best spot. You’d be able to see everything from there: the ballroom floor, the balcony, even the entryway all the way to the main doors.
He wasn’t expecting to see something shift though, and he watched in horror as a masked and cloaked figure appeared, lining up a rifle and pointing down into the crowd of people on the ballroom floor.
Or: A diplomatic gala takes an unexpected turn when Lance intercepts an assassination attempt on one of their allies. Leaving Lance injured and the others scrambling for answers, they enter a race against the clock to find who is responsible. They don’t know who did it, no one’s coming forward, and Lance is running out of time.

Summary
Lance sits up, staring across the room in horror. Keith is already doing the same, his mouth agape. No fucking way, Lance thinks, and Keith makes this weak, wounded sound.
Oh no, Keith thinks, in Lance’s own mind.
--
In which Lance and Keith accidentally end up mind-linked, which starts off completely horrific and somehow becomes... not so horrific.

Summary
Keith spent two years on the space whale watching visions of his future play out before him. There were parts of the visions Keith desperately hoped he would live to have: a cozy house on the beach, a loving family, a daughter, and a boy with blue eyes. There were also things he viciously did not want to come true.
When Keith and Krolia escape the space whale and return to the Castle of Lions, he sees Lance for the first time in years. Lance’s eyes are the same shade of blue as the boy in the visions, and Keith doesn’t know how he hadn’t realized it sooner. Of course, it would be Lance. Of course, Keith would do anything to make a future with Lance a reality.

Summary
“Trust your instincts,” Keith interrupts, twisting the blade in his hand restlessly. “They’re always right.”
Lance scoffs. “Are they?”
“Yes,” Keith insists, exasperated. “How do you think we got this far?”
“Luck?”
“I’m cutting the black one,” Keith announces, leaning forward to do exactly that.
“Wait!” Lance’s hand shoots back out to clutch at Keith’s arm, his fingers digging almost painfully against his armor. “Are you sure?”
Keith turns his head just enough to lock eyes with Lance, tightening his grip on the hilt of his blade. “I’m sure if you’re sure.”

Summary
Look, Lance is fine, okay? He’s doing great, actually. He’s starting to climb again, he's got amazing friends that love him, his bladder is super healthy right now, and he's finally sworn off dating! Which was a great idea, really. Best idea ever.
It’s just too bad he meets Keith. Dude's gonna throw all his plans out of whack.
OR a climbing gym AU where Keith is a lonely bike mechanic with a cute dog, and Lance is a grad student with a chronic illness. They reconnect after a past hook up and things sort of spiral from there.

Summary
Wars never end neatly, and they rarely end quickly. It's kind of unfair that, after saving the universe, Lance still has to deal with evil plots, bad guys, assassination attempts, daring rescues, death, and bad dreams. Not to mention love. He thought he was done with all that.
Or: After the war, Lance goes home. His problems follow. Namely, Keith. Lance has no choice but to follow him right back, even when he disappears without a trace. Funny how that goes.

Summary
Keith’s doing just fine, thanks. So maybe he dropped out of college and maybe he doesn’t have what one might call “direction” in his life, but so what? He’s got a job he doesn’t hate, he’s got enough friends for his liking, he’s got Shiro, he’s got climbing on the weekends, he’s got the hookups with closeted college boys every once in awhile, and he’s fine. Happy. He doesn’t need anything to change.
That is, until he almost accidentally gets into a bar fight with an infuriatingly attractive river guide and then starts seeing said river guide everywhere and it turns out he's less infuriating but still definitely attractive, and, well—maybe Keith hasn’t been doing that fine. Maybe one thing can change.
Or: Keith and Lance fall into hate and then into love in quick succession. Also, there’s truck sex.

Summary
The first text message Lance ever got from Keith said are you home
No punctuation, no capital letters, nothing else. Just a question sans question mark, like he knew the answer already.
Probably because he did, if he’d been talking to the rest of the team, anyone at the Garrison, or any of Lance’s siblings. Lance hadn’t left home since he’d been released from the mandatory medical evaluation at the Garrison after the last solo mission that nearly killed him. It’d been nearly a year, and his feet hadn’t left the family farm’s soil since, which was exactly how Lance wanted it.
