Summary
The war is over. Everyone has found their place in the Universe. Hunk and Pidge are working on cool projects to help the Blades and Garrison explore and help various races throughout the galaxies, Allura and Coran are building New Altea, and Keith is working with the Blades to restore balance to planets still infested with Galra rebels. But one year after they've ended the fight against the tyranical empire, Lance goes missing. With a gut instinct guiding him, Keith heads into the desert to his forgotten shack—an old hideout where Lance once joked he could escape everything. Together they brave the realities of their new lives and help each other realize they are not their traumas.
Aka a little fix it fic with all the gays and plenty of hurt and comfort because this shit got heavy for a kids show.

Summary
Lance knows his close quarters combat isn’t the best, so when Shiro tells Lance he’s going to train him he should be relieved because maybe now he can actually protect his team. Except the training seems to be more of a beatdown punctuated by both fists and cruel words and now Lance has to hide the results of such before he makes tensions in Voltron even worse. But that’s harder than planned on as Keith is both very observant and very, very concerned.
“Do you think the Galra Empire will care that you’re tired?” Shiro interrupted him. “Do you think they’ll go easy on you because you’ve been fighting all day?”
“No, but—”
“There are no buts, Lance,” Shiro cut him off. “Either you want to be a Paladin your team can count on or you don’t.”

Summary
It wasn’t until he noticed the torn-up fabric on his hip, just between the two sections of armored skin, that he realized something must have been wrong. Lance narrowed his eyes.
“Lance, are you there?” Keith asked.
Shakily, Lance ran his fingers over the charred fabric. Pain shot through him and he hissed in an attempt to quell it.
“Uh, yeah. I think,” Lance licked his lips, “I think I got shot.”
⸺
Lance gets hurt during a battle. His buddy is there to help him out.

Summary
Keith knows that Lance knows how important this alliance is. He knows how big the other group is on ceremony and how bad Keith admittedly is at the finer nuances of the political doublespeak. He knows because all of those are the reasons Keith chose Lance to be his fellow delegate and lead the alliance talks. And yet here Lance is, mocking their hosts by pointedly ignoring them in what Keith can only guess is a both a literal silent protest of the aliens’ blatant sexism and show of support for Allura. He understands, he feels the same, but this is not the time or place and the hurt he feels at the trust Lance has broken with his actions is more deafening than any silence.

Summary
"Lance summoned his Bayard.
Aim. Breathe. Shoot.
The resounding shot echoed in his ears. Except it wasn’t from his gun.
Lance’s legs gave out before he even realized what’d happened. He’d been shot. Square in his right ass cheek."
...
Lance McClain, Blue Paladin and Red Lion Pilot, has survived many trials out in space: Strenuous battles, relentless pining over Keith Kogane, being shot in truly embarrassing places ... but when he ends up on a solo mission it may prove to be his hardest challenge yet. Especially since he's stuck on a planet that doesn't even like Voltron. But it can't be any harder than trying to reconnect with Keith (who's been extra closed off since his returned from the Quantum Abyss), can it?
What results is many laughs ... and many tears.

If The Sky Comes Falling Down (For You) There's Nothing In This World I Wouldn't Do by negativefouriq

Summary
“Isn’t it strange that she called me for — for leadership advice?” he questions finally, turning to face Lance. “I mean, I stumbled through every day as leader. Shiro was more of a natural. Hell, you’re better with pep talks, Mr. The Black Lion Chose You And I Trust Its Judgement.”
The set up is there. Lance could spell it out for him now, gently explain what he’s observed over the years, what he knows to be true — Keith, even though he refuses to admit it or even let himself notice, is the cornerstone of their family, the one who grew up with so much change so constantly that he learned to find steadiness in himself.
But that’s a longer conversation. That’s a quiet conversation, for when Lance can give his husband his full attention, when they can face each other and be honest and work through the inevitable pain of Keith accepting that as truth. Not when Lance is driving, and their kids are in the back, very obviously listening in at this point.
“Oh, come on, Fearless Leader,” Lance teases. “She knew she needed a nice, cheesy metaphor to set her head on straight, isn’t it obvious?”

Summary
Three years after the fall of the Galra Empire, Lance McClain—up-and-coming solo artist and former Paladin of Voltron—accidentally posts a breakup song on Valentine's day. Instead of removing it, Lance starts posting more covers of love songs, all ostensibly for "You", the mysterious character who had broken Lance's heart.
What the galaxy doesn't know is that "You" is just as in love with Lance as Lance is with him.
Or, Lance sings breakup songs and posts them online to cope with the heartbreak of Keith leaving him again for the Blade. Keith is guilty, and also very much in love.

A Cardinal Sin by didthetwinflamebruisepaintyoublue

Summary
Keith Kogane turned around, stick in his hand, as he made his way back over to the team.
“Hey, nice to meet you, my name’s Lance,” Lance introduced himself as Keith skated by. The man said nothing, sliding right past Lance as he headed over to where their coach was now standing.
“That was rough, I’m not gonna lie,” Hunk said, and Lance shook his head.
“Who does he think he is?”
In which Lance and Keith are both professional hockey players. Keith is notorious for switching teams every year, with no one knowing why, and this year he has joined the Arizona Cardinals, the team Lance has played for since he graduated college. Despite being notoriously a prodigy at hockey and famous for his success, Keith seems to refuse to get close to anyone and always has a frown on his face. Something in Lance makes it so that he desperately wants to break those walls down.

Summary
"Is there anything to this world beyond science, Pidge?" Asked Lance.
"No way! Everything's got a logical explanation." She turned to face the guys.
"I'm not a tech genius like you. But I feel the power, and the energies. Of something." Replied Keith.
"There's totally something bigger out there, whether it's this fallen man, the energy signals, or our feelings." Said Hunk staring at Keith's board.
Aka: a rewrite of VLD pre-canon till the pilot with plenty of headcannons, fun, mystery, and angst!

This fic actually blew my mind what:
“Get off of me!” Shouted Keith to Hunk, who had landed on top of him.
“Fuck, I got a cut-” Pidge hissed.
“Is everyone okay?!” Shiro asked.
“I want my mother!” Hunk stumbled backwards, before bumping into Shiro’s back and screaming at his presence.
“Over there, guys! Do you see a blue glow?” Lance spoke, interrupting everyone’s collective panicking.
“Oh woah, what could it be?” Pidge asked.

Summary
“You’ve done so much more for the Blade than most of them ever will, and it’s thanks to you that we’re spreading her message across the entire universe.”
Keith affirms it with such confidence that anyone would believe him, but most importantly, he needed Lance to believe him; needed him to know how valued and important he is to their joint cause.
“I’ve got you. I always do, Lance.”

Summary
Most people never got to learn exactly what their mind is worth, how resistant it is. Lance knew now, and the answer was ten days. It only took ten days for something in him to break that he wasn't sure he could get back.
Shiro had survived a year and come out as someone still able to smile, to be kind and gentle with those around him. Scarred, but not shattered.
Lance wore no new scars. But he still hadn't made it ten days.

Summary
“T-Takashi?” Adam pivoted on one heel slowly, turning to face them with pure astonishment written over his face. Shiro’s breath got caught in his throat. Adam was still so beautiful.
He floundered for words. Then, gracefully, he could only croak; “Hi, Adam.”
“Do you even recognize him, commander? Its Takashi Shirogane! Your old friend!” Elijah cried, eyes bright. He looked between the two, as if expecting them to also break into delighted cackles. Shiro felt rather as if he was going to vomit.
“I recognize him,” Adam said. His eyes slid to Shiro’s arm, widened imperceptibly. Shiro flinched. “It’s been a long time, Shiro. I see a lot has changed.”Essentially, Pidge discovered that Adam wasn't killed in the initial attack. He escaped death and apparently he's been leading a rebellion in Japan? Shiro leaves to find him and a new journey unfolds.

Summary
"Iverson nodded absentmindedly- he’d never thought about that. Still, trying to picture Keith Kogane as a universally famous war hero was unbelievable. Every time he looked at the boy all he could see was the young, undisciplined teenager who punched him in the eye."
In which Iverson realizes he was wrong in his assumptions about Keith, and the two have a midnight chat.
(I finished watching season 7, and all I could think about was that Iverson and Keith needed to apologize to each other and have a talk. May be a little OOC since I just joined the fandom.)
