To the Ends of the Earth, Would You Follow Me? by LuellaArcher

Summary
“The bard is an avian?” He asked, hoping he had misheard her even as he now tried his best to see past the crowd to catch a glimpse of the musician.
“He sure is. I must say, I was very surprised myself. Before today I could’ve counted on one hand how many birdfolk I had ever met,” Shay said with a chuckle. At this point, Keith could not even pretend to be listening, since one of the patrons had finally moved out of the way, and allowed Keith a direct line of sight to the blue-eyed avian currently leading the audience through yet another jovial song.
The reason why Keith could be so sure of the other’s eye color was because the man was currently staring right at Keith with a gobsmacked expression Keith was sure matched his own.

Or:
Keith is exiled from his flock and is forced to find his own way in the world. Lance shows him that there is so much more to life than the stuffy, old avians that Keith has left behind in the mountains. -

A Little Death by AsterikaMay for SemiRetiredAuthor

Summary
“Aw,” the druid coos, “So much fire. So much rage in that trembling heart of yours. It’d be a shame if I simply quashed it, wouldn’t it?”
Keith stares straight at the druid. He bores his eyes into the shine of its face and looks his reflection dead in the eye. “Fuck—you.”
The druid tips its head all the way back till its face is far out of sight and it laughs. It shrills and twitches and ticks and shakes. “So much fire!” It shrieks. “So much fire and it’s—”
The druid reaches forward and wraps its long fingers around Keith’s face. They’re like icicles searing his skin with blinding cold. It might’ve drawn blood. He doesn’t know.
“—all gone.” The druid faces him again. “All gone.”
Keith shivers under the touch. He doesn’t understand. “What?”-
A Blade mission goes astray when Keith has an unfortunate run-in with a druid. He falls sick soon after, and is handed into Voltron’s care until he recovers. While he’s there, he contemplates his place in the universe, the depth of his illness and its mysterious connection to Lance, and why he’s not getting better.

The Storm in His Eyes, the Stars on His Cheeks by knifeboye for karovie
Fandoms: Voltron: Legendary Defender

Tags
Summary
“I’m scared,” Lance revealed, and his voice was so small Keith almost missed it.
He felt something tug in his chest, and his fingers froze in Lance’s hair.
“Me, too.”
Lance laughed at that, and his chest shook with the action. Keith watched as tears fell from his squinted eyes, rolling down his cheeks like shooting stars.
“Good.”OR: there's a cave in, and Lance is self-sacrificing. hurt/comfort ensues.

Summary
It was a funny thing to hate Lance when the rest of the team loved him...
It's even funnier when suddenly the tables turn and now Keith is the only one who doesn't hate him.
Maybe their secrets really will be the death of them.But how can Keith possibly explain to his team that Lance isn't guilty without outing every little secret they have? would it even be worth it to prove Lance's innocence when the only way to do so is to reveal exactly how intimately Keith knows him?

Summary

Keith has no doubt in his mind that he’s going to keep the attention on himself, especially when he finds out that the Black Paladin was the original target. Except what they want from Keith is not something he can do and Lance is forced to pay that price of refusal in blood. But it's a sacrifice he's willing to make to protect all those he loves and he makes sure Keith knows that.

Summary
“I got Keith,” Lance offered, already moving to heft the red paladin up. Keith gasped as the sudden movement, grasping at Lance’s chest armor in pain. “I know buddy, I got you,” Lance said, tone gentler than Shiro had ever heard it.

Summary
To say Keith is anxious is an understatement.
He’s practically vibrating with nerves as he sits down on his bed in his and Shiro’s apartment. Today was the day.
He was going to tell Lance everything.
The car accident. Bouncing around in foster homes. Cutting away his pain.
(Or the one where Keith has a complicated past and he's not sure how Lance will take it)

Descartes Was Right About Dreams by fallingoutromance
Fandoms: Voltron: Legendary Defender
06 Apr 2024
Tags
Summary
“Do you want to talk about what you saw?”
Keith snapped to attention at that. “You know?” He asked, disbelief in his voice. Lance must have mistaken it for wariness.
“Not the details, just that-” Lance grimaced, “while you were dreaming, everything would feel real. Nobody knows what exactly happened in there, though.”
Keith let out a punched out sound at the confirmation that his family wasn’t real, was just a figment of his imagination. “Lance, I- I had a family,” he moaned, despair evident in his tone.
“What?”
A mission gone wrong; a lifetime lived in a night. Keith is forced to contend with the aftermath of accidentally being exposed to an experimental chemical weapon and must recover while fighting to separate fiction from reality. How can he do that when the dream felt so real and still bleeds over into reality, even after waking?

Summary
The war is over, and the Paladins are heroes. Lance McClain should be on top of the world, but he feels like a ghost in his own life. Haunted by the past and adrift in the present, he navigates his new role as "Prince Lance," a diplomat beloved by the galaxy yet utterly alone. His carefully constructed composure begins to crack as he watches Keith Kogane find an easy, laughing companionship with their former rival, James Griffin.
Consumed by a jealousy he can't voice and a love he's never confessed, Lance's quiet despair boils over into a bitter, public rivalry with Keith. Each charged encounter and barbed word pushes them further apart, even as the magnetic pull between them grows stronger. In a universe finally at peace, Lance and Keith must fight their most difficult battle yet... a war of misunderstood hearts, where the only way to save each other is to finally surrender to the truth.
