Summary
Keith accidentally winds up in his future self’s body, who he then has to pretend to actually be because apparently the future is full of clones who will say or do anything to trick Team Voltron. In the future, anyone acting out of the ordinary is a suspect, and Keith can't afford to get his future-self killed by being incompetent. This is only made harder by the fact that he has to pretend to know what it’s like to be a boyfriend, because in the future, he and Lance are dating.
“I’m sorry,” Lance said gently. Keith could feel his words as much as he heard them, Lance’s warm breaths escaping against his lips. “I know you’re better, and I know you don’t like me worrying over you. I’m sorry.”
“It’s okay,” Keith rushed to assure him. Play along, play along, play along. “I know you were just scared,” he guessed. “But you don’t have to be anymore.”
Lance sighed a long, drawn out sigh. “I know,” he said. And then, “I love you.”
Keith’s brain short-circuited. Oh, he thought. And then Lance’s lips were on his, warm and soft.

"Should I… apologize?"
Lance blinks, looks surprised. "Huh?"
"To… Allura…." Keith's hands shake. "Or…"
The Galra have taken so much from everyone. Everyone on his team. Everyone in the galaxy.
What if he's like that, too?

"I told him not to tell you."
And this time, Keith doesn't seem to have trouble asking the unavoidable question: "Why?"
Lance looks at Keith, and everything falls into place.

Summary
Lance, like all the other paladins, is finally getting used to the “mind meld” they all have to indulge in when controlling their lions. Until someone’s uncontrollable crush comes in and knocks them all back in surprise. It’s a crush that circles persistently through their thoughts and only gets stronger as time goes on, until they begin to realize this might be a bit more serious than the term “crush” implies.
Meanwhile, the unfortunate paladin behind it all is trying desperately to bury the feelings away, yet failing at every turn.

Summary
“It’s been two years since I’ve seen you,” Keith murmurs, eyes like a pool of stars. “I’m gonna kiss you until you pass out.”
And Lance’s brain is on autopilot because holy fuck he cannot believe this is happening, that Keith Kogane is planning on making him so dizzy from kisses—he’ll probably spontaneously combust. So, with everything running a mile a minute, his automatic response is to be snarky, “That’s great, but what about Loto—?”
“Don’t care. Give me your mouth.”
So much for that!

Summary
As they moved around each other in the kitchen Keith noticed something. Lance was his usual stupid self around Hunk, unaware of his own limbs, bumping into him and sliding past him in the small space, but with Keith he maintained a careful distance.
Keith felt.... Upset? He shook his head. Why did he want Lance to bump into him, that was stupid. But as it became more evident that Lance was purposefully avoiding touching him, Keith became more frustrated.
He wasn't scary! He was just chopping some goddamn space broccoli! -- oh, well maybe he had made the comment about the knife.
As he went to pass Lance, he intended to brush past him, easy and uncomplicated. But Lance moved for him like the red sea parting, gracefully exiting the shorter boy's personal space.
"Lance. What the hell?"
**
Here's the summary I wrote on my phone drunk and at 3:00 at my friend's house last summer lmao:
Lance is a needy boy and starts hugging everybody more bc he misses his family and everybody is chill with it but Keith is a touchstarved lil bitch and eventually they just start platonically cuddling all the time and the crew has to tell them they are fucking gayBookmarked by Caffeinated_and_Captivated

Summary
Lance is the opposite of affectionate with him.
Maybe that's partly Keith's fault… He's not approachable like Hunk, or nice like Allura, or fun like Coran, or whatever Pidge is that makes Lance lay his whole weight against them until they snap about personal space and they elbow him in the ribs. He's never pushed Lance away or shrugged him off the few times Lance has touched him, but Lance still doesn't seem inclined to do it often, outside of encouraging Keith to pull himself together before he runs the whole team into the ground.
Keith doesn't know what he's doing wrong there. (But then, a small voice says, it's probably weird to want him to touch you, anyway - it's weird to want to hold his hand again - so it's better if he doesn't.)
//Shiro is gone and Keith is grieving.

“Holy hell, dude, what are your abs made out of, metal?”
“Is that a compliment or an insult?”
“It’s illegal is what it is!”
“What?”
Hunk sighs. Twister and UST are never a good combination.

Summary
“What the fuck? What are you doing?”
“Well, I was about to do your eyeliner, but then you decided you wanted to hold hands instead.”
Keith lets out a soft, indignant sound. “I’m not letting you get a pointed object near my eyes.”
Lance huffs. “Just shut up and trust me, okay?”
Keith just stares hard at him for a moment. His eyes are near-black, and dark enough that Lance can’t tell if they’re a warm galra purple or brown. Finally, Keith sighs and unwraps his fingers from Lance’s hand. “I already trust you.”

Summary
Keith and Lance were separated from the rest of the team when sentinels broke into their castle headquarters. Now they must team up- or not- to get out of trouble. Only thing is they can't stop fighting to get through a single hallway let alone to find the others...

Summary
Lance doesn't trust his voice to work, is worried about how broken even a small hey is going to sound coming out of his mouth, so he hasn't managed to say anything before Keith reaches him, and Keith speaks again easily, something that Lance hasn't heard in a while coloring his voice, "I was wondering where you'd gone off to."
“Sorry,” Lance says reflexively, his brow creasing. He clears his throat, passes another self-conscious hand across his face. “Did you need me for something?”
“No?”
Keith tips the answer up like he’s confused about the question, like he doesn’t think he needs a reason to just seek out Lance’s company.

Summary
Lance rolls his eyes. “Oh, you big baby. So what I had to sit on your lap? I’m not that heavy.”
Keith harrumphs. “Whatever. I still don’t understand why she was so convinced that we’re — a thing, or whatever.”
“Maybe because on that call with her, after we saved her planet, you looked at Lance with the softest look in the world and said you ‘couldn’t have done it without your right hand man’?” Pidge suggests.
“Fuck right off,” Keith says hotly, ears going red as the rest of the team giggles. Only Lance is on Keith’s side, looking at Pidge in confusion.
“He says that all the time. How was that weird?” he asks.
Pidge stops laughing abruptly, blinking at him in shock. “You’re — you’re fucking with me, right?”
Lance continues to look at her oddly. Pidge exchanges a look with Hunk and Allura, and all three of them sigh.

Summary
“Be safe.” He’s never sounded softer in his life. If you took the gooey sweetness out of is voice and injected it into someone’s bloodstream they’d develop a new kind of diabetes and die immediately, Lance is sure. Jesus.
Keith laughs quietly, shoving his helmet on his head and knocking it carefully against Lance’s head.
“I’ll be safe.”
He squeezes Lance’s hand one more time and then he’s off, jogging off towards his lion and waving for the Blades to follow him. Lance watches long after he turns a hallway, totally out of sight. He squeezes his hands into fists, palms warmed by Keith’s touch. God, he’s so —
The smallest of squeak noises sounds behind him, and Lance whips around just in time to see his best friends in the world totally fucking lose it.

Summary
“Mm-what,” he mumbles, muffled into his roughed shoulder pads, words smushed together.
Keith sighs instead of answering. For half a second Lance tenses. But Keith only shifts again, not pushing Lance off but moving so Lance is pressed closer to him, and then the heat of his breath tickles the shell of Lance’s ear, and he tenses for a whole different reason.
And then there is, inexplicably, the feeling of what must be Keith’s lips, pressed to the side of Lance’s skull, gentle and lingering, and Lance thinks clearly to himself: what the fresh actual and genuine fuck.
“‘M sorry,” says Keith, so quiet it would be impossible to hear were his mouth not one single inch away from Lance’s ear. He kisses again, and he almost sags into the motion, into Lance. “I shouldn’t have been so dismissive of you earlier. I was stressed. I missed you, too.”
Lance opens his mouth. He muffles a choking sound with all of his strength.
“All good in the hood,” he finally manages, and then wants to strangle himself. “We’re — tight, Keithalicious.”

Summary
“Do you ever wonder what happens when we die?”
Keith blinks. He opens his mouth to answer, but stops himself. He looks up at the unfamiliar stars, tracing random constellations. There’s a sword, where Orion usually is during Earth summers. And a lick of flame, replacing the Big Dipper. The brightest star in the sky shines red.
“No,” Keith says softly. “It’s — dangerous. Letting myself think about that. We’re too close, you know? I don’t want my last thought to be panicking about what’s to come. I want it to be — not that. I don’t know.”
“Oh.”
Keith waits for Lance to offer an explanation, a reason for his curiosity, or even a subject change. When nothing comes Keith shifts, propping himself up on his elbow and glancing over at the red paladin.
“Why do you ask? Just curious?”
It’s a long time, again, until Lance answers, but this time Keith knows he’s not asleep. He’s tense, lying ramrod straight, head centred on his pillow and arms hooked over his blanket. His brown eyes — almost black in the dark night — stare straight up, but there’s something off about his expression, something fixed and plastic.
“I was surprised, is all. It was — nothing like I expected.”

Summary
Keith has been with the Blade a few months now, and hasn’t seen his former teammates in just as long. There’s a coalition dinner that both the Blade and Team Voltron are attending, and it’s Keith’s chance to see—all of them, but maybe one paladin in particular.
Or: the one where all anybody does is look.

Summary
Keith finds out about Lance’s death/revival when he saved Allura, and Lance confronts him about Naxzela. They’re dumb & in love, as per usual
-- --- --
“Keith…?” Lance’s voice is muffled as he speaks into Keith’s chest, and Keith feels the vibration of it against his ribcage like a shock. It jolts him awake, and all at once, he realizes what he’s doing. What he’s done.His first instinct is to pull away, he knows that he should pull away… but he doesn’t. Instead, he hesitates, obliging the small part of himself that doesn’t want to let go, whether he likes it or not. It has him lingering in the moment for just a second too long.
He hadn’t meant for this to happen.

Summary
He wishes it didn’t but, seeing Keith again like this, under the striking pink and orange hues of dusk, sets a swarm of butterflies loose in his chest. To think, for these past two months, Lance has been focusing on getting over him.
Seems like he’s doing one hell of a job.
It’s driving him crazy that he can’t tell what Keith is thinking. Lance wishes he could read him, but he doesn’t know this Keith. He isn’t the same person who’d left them two months ago, and Lance wonders if it’s wrong to treat him like he is. He also wonders if Keith knows what he’s doing to him, joining him up on the roof like this. Bathed in twilight, dark eyes trained on the sky, sweat and moisture visibly clinging to the pale skin around his hairline, his collar...

Summary
Lance returns to Keith’s bag, sets himself slowly to his knees as he opens the main compartment. He starts talking about something, laughing, but Keith doesn’t register what he says as his sleeve slips slightly over the smooth arc of his shoulder. Keith can’t help the groan that escapes him.
“Lance,” he says, pleads, and Lance stops his cheery little story. In the silence, Keith takes in how ruffled and open Lance has become, no doubt due to the alcohol. He’s a little breathless, cheeks and shoulders flushed a deep pink, and Keith lets out a long, drawn out sigh. “You’re killing me.”
Lance stiffens slightly. He looks up, meets Keith’s gaze. He’s wearing the same expression he always does when he’s confused—the pinched brows, the small jut of his lower lip as he pouts. Lance doesn’t even know he does it, and to Keith, that makes it all the more endearing.
“What do you mean?” he asks quietly.
“Killing me,” Keith whispers, rests his head in his hands.
