You Got My Heart (You Got My Mind) by negativefouriq

Summary
Before Keith can ask her why she’s pushed her way through — not that he minds, he’s happy to have her, but she hasn’t felt the need to visit him in a while so he’s curious — he feels another presence almost knock on his subconscious, request access to his mindscape.
Red has…brought someone else?
Can she do that?
Red looks at him flatly, like his doubt is a personal offence. Before she can start admonishing him, the presence pushes again; not urgent, but insistent, almost as if someone is knocking on the door of Keith’s mind and doesn’t want to be ignored.
Beyond curious, Keith lets them in.
The second Keith opens his mental door, it’s like they rush in, flowing in like the white rapids of a river, strong and fast and excited, cool and bubbly. There’s so much of them that it takes Keith a good couple of minutes to conceptualise just who exactly has followed Red into Keith’s mind. The rushing water takes shape into a person; tall, gangly, broad-shoulders with a mop of curly brown hair and bright brown eyes, freckles spotted over their nose and grin wide and sparking.
Keith gapes.
“Lance?!”

Summary
Lance’s hands were relief- the oil on them had them gliding over Keith’s skin, working over Keith’s tender muscles, releasing the tension and untying the knots deep in the tissue. Keith doesn’t think he has ever been touched for so long or so intentionally. It felt beautiful, if beauty could be a physical sensation. So good, so good, so good. He tried not to groan but he could barely trap it in his throat. It snuck out, his vocal cords vibrating his body.
“Oh, crap, did I-?” Lance began to raise his hands but Keith reached around and grabbed his slippery fingers in his own.
“No-” Keith looked into Lance’s face in the mirror, ignoring the way his own face looked wrecked, blissed out. “Please. Don’t stop.”
Lance breathed out one long shaky breath, staring at Keith. “O-okay.”
Or
Keith is touch starved, and that's a metaphor for his life. Lance is good for him.

Summary
“Seriously,” Lance says, “I really do hope I grow more. Otherwise I’ll just have freakishly large hands. Though I guess that’s not necessarily a bad thing.” He waggles his eyebrows, smirks. “Cause you know what they say about a guy with big hands.”
Keith gives him a dead stare.
“Big ego,” he says flatly.
In which Keith gains a fingerless-glove best bud, a pun-loving little sister, and a goofy ninja sharpshooter boyfriend, all in the span of twenty-four hours.

Summary
“You really wanna kiss me, Kogane?” Lance asks, suddenly serious. His fingers twitch anxiously and his teeth gnaw at his bottom lip.
Keith looks at him through the screen, right into his blue-brown eyes. (He can never tell what color Lance’s eyes are--they always seem to be shifting and changing in the light, just like the inside of a kaleidoscope.) “Yeah,” He breathes. “Yeah. You just said you wanted to make me a mixtape in a declaration of your love to me. I want to kiss you so hard right now.”

My Soul Has Your Claim, My Soul Is In Flames by queen-of-voltronian (TellyMauve)
Fandoms: Voltron: Legendary Defender
26 Jun 2023

Summary
Does anyone know Lance is in love with Keith?
Of course not. And Lance would very much like to keep it that way, thank you! Keith already doesn't want anything to do with him ever since coming back from that space whale; the last thing Lance needs on top of his crumbling self-worth and shaky standing in the team is a rejection that shatters his heart in pieces, too.
But now, Lance got himself in a bit of a pickle. Which is fine, because Lance has a plan to get out of it! A wonderful, brilliant, masterful, completely fool-proof plan. His team won't look at him like he's more incompetent than they already do, he won't have to spend the rest of his life trapped on some alien planet, and Keith will never find out just how head over heels he is for him. It's a win-win-win situation.
Of course, with Keith, things are never quite so simple, and Lance's plan soon causes a domino effect that changes the entire course of his life.
Or:
Maybe Lance should have been a little more specific when he said he'd do anything to get home. Because now...
"You must bestow a kiss on the one your soul most desires."
...Fuck.

Summary
Lance’s smile widens. He leans forward, and the prickling in Keith’s chest gives way to butterflies, fluttering wildly in his stomach, and oh wow has Lance always had this many freckles, has he always had eyelashes that long, has he—
Lance pokes his cheek, right over the Galra mark. Keith blinks.
“I can’t believe you and your mom have matching face tattoos now,” he says, and it’s so fucking dumb, but it’s exactly the kind of dumb thing Keith has longed to hear, and before he knows what he’s doing he’s surging forward, almost knocking Lance back against Red’s paw, and throwing his arms around him.
In which Keith lives on a space whale, goes on a road trip, and (eventually) gets a boyfriend.

Summary
“Can you get ahold of him?”
Pidge sighed. “Yeah, probably. This really can’t wait?” She took one look at his pitiful face. “Okay, I’ll try to get a message out to him. What do you want me to say?”
“That I need him. I mean! I need to talk to him. Urgently. As soon as possible. It’s very important.”
“Lance, he’s going to think you’re in trouble or something.”
“Good! Maybe he’ll get here faster!”

Summary
“Mullet?”, Lance, obviously, sounds surprised.
He’s standing with a hand on the handle of his front door, his face is covered with a green paste, and he’s looking at Keith with his eyebrows raised.
“Uh…”, is Keith’s intelligent answer.
“You’re, like, a week early, my man.”
“Sorry”, Keith says, but doesn’t mean it.or
Keith is a week early to the Monthly Paladin Reunion TM. (They spend a week alone at Lance's farm) (stuff happens)

Summary
Lance is enjoying life after Voltron. He's working in the Garrison with his closest friends, helping out on the family farm, and eating home-cooked meals and not space goo. Yep, life is pretty good!
But he's a grown adult now, and he's feeling the urge to spread his wings, form sword, grow up, and all that jazz.
So what's a guy to do? Move in with his former rival slash current best friend's spare bedroom, of course!
And they were roommates.

Summary
Lance can’t help it.
He can’t help the heat rushing to his ears or the skip in his heart or the lump in his throat that he tries—and fails—to swallow down, his mouth suddenly as dry as the desert around them.
“Y’know, I gotta say,” he feigns weakly, “I kinda miss the skin-tight glowing catsuit.”

Summary
“Kogane,” he calls. Pidge doesn’t look up, but Hunk does, pausing in his scribbles to give Lance a wide-eyed look that is promptly ignored. Keith’s head shoots up, looking startled by the use of his name, and he meets Lance’s eyes with a mostly unreadable expression. Or maybe that’s just Lance’s exhaustion speaking, he doesn’t know or care. “Come sit with us,” he offers, patting the back of the chair next to him.
Keith looks a bit like a frightened wild animal, but when Lance stares at him expectantly, he slowly starts picking up his work and piling it in his arms. He approaches their table slowly, still cautious, but sets his stuff down and pulls out the chair.
Lance slams a hand down on his worksheet, making all three of his tablemates jump. “Dude,” he says to Keith. “What in the fuckity is this saying. Do you understand this shit?”
Keith looks somewhere between taken aback, baffled, and bemused. “Um. Kind of?”
“Please. Explain.”
or, the paladins become friends long before they ride a hoverbike down a cliff together. it's lance's fault, really. studying at the garrison, birthday celebrations, and all kinds of love and laughter.

Summary
Lance’s halted speech broke into staggered coughs. I wouldn’t never let anything happen to Voltron. Never on my life would I have acted so absent mindedly with the weight of the universe looming over me. He tried again: “Ah-en—” Another cough. “Y—”
“Lance, stop it,” Pidge said, “You’re going to hurt yourself.”
A pen. He needed a pen and paper. Then he could write what happened.
He gestured in the air, mimicking scribbles, mimicking a sheet. All he got in response was pitiful stares.
Lance’s heart sank. They weren’t listening. They weren’t listening.
An exchange with a cynical alien during a diplomatic mission leaves Lance unable to speak or defend his honor when he is accused of a wrongdoing he didn't commit.

"You know, you can be a pretty hard guy to find," Lance says, and his steps end at Keith's side, overlooking Orla'an canyon.
"Funny you always say that," Keith remarks, "since you find me, regardless. And," he finally glances at Lance, "…always wearing something weird."

Lance comes to Keith when he needs someone to pry him open.

Summary
The fingers on his cheek tighten before releasing with the sigh Keith emits, followed by a light brush against his cheekbone. “I don’t hate you, you moron, you’re the one that started the stupid rivalry stuff. I will hate you if you pass out again, though.”
“Don’t hate y’either.” Lance mumbles. He’s not even sure what he’s saying is in English, his thoughts are slipping fast, like the last bits of sand in an hourglass. “You’re s’good at everything… ‘nnoying.”

Summary
Victor learns Japanese while in Hasetsu. He doesn't tell Yuuri, and things get dicey when he overhears Yuuri and Mari talking about him in Japanese. Repeatedly.
(The subtitle of this fic should be: Victor Nikiforov really needs a hug. Luckily, he gets one. Eventually.)
~~~
“No,” Victor says, skating up to Yuuri on the ice, “you have to push all the way from here, or you’ll never get the height you need for that axel.” He sets his hand on Yuuri’s ass, tracing the muscle group he’s referring to. “Not here.” He taps Yuuri’s thigh. He doesn’t know the words for the muscles in English, only knows how to show him.
Yes, technically he’s grabbing Yuuri’s ass, but how else is he to communicate?

“What?” Wade says to one lady, “Never seen a coupla My Chemical Romance fans out in public before? Emo isn’t a choice, lady, it’s a lifestyle!”
“I’m not emo,” Negasonic complains as Wade starts humming Welcome to the Black Parade.
“Course, not, ‘sonic,” Wade agrees, “Punk, goth, whatever you are you definitely live on vampire freaks dot com.” He shoves another spoonful of mint chip in his mouth as he watches Negasonic open and close her mouth, apparently unable to think of a come back for that one. “Ah HA! If I’m lyin’ I’m dyin’ kid, and you know that’s not happening!” He says as he bites down on a chocolate chip.
