Or

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.

Summary
Then she smirks, like she can’t help herself, “So,” she says, too casually to be casual, “how’s your dating life, Lance?”
Lance snorts, the sound quick and amused, like the question itself is ridiculous. “Pretty non-existent.”
“Hm.” Pidge doesn’t look at him. “Thrilling.” There’s another pause. “Keith?”
Keith lifts a hand vaguely, the one not currently holding his drink, waving it off without much thought. “Same.”
Pidge finally turns her head again. Just stares at them. Then rolls her eyes so hard it’s almost audible. “I wonder why that is.”

Keith and Lance are NOT dating, they swear

Summary
"I find myself wondering, sweet reader, when exactly someone will take a shovel to the back of this racist statue's metal head and begin dismantling our university’s scandalous love affair with the most problematic donors they could possibly find. I’m looking at you, President Zarkon, kindly remove your hand from the Republican Party’s dick. This is a liberal arts college for God’s sake."
When Galra University's Tumblr page, meant for football game updates and pleads for attendees for club meetings, is plagued by a mysterious writer determined to eviscerate every toxic part of the college, Lance is intrigued. When he becomes a leading character in the anonymous letters, well, he gets a little more curious. Lance becomes determined to unveil the writer and find out a) what is his problem exactly and b) does he really think Lance's eyes are that blue?
A tale in which Lance is oblivious and pining for the hot nerd in the back of his Greek mythology class, Keith can wield a pen with deadly cruelty, and you, dear readers, suffer from the pains of dramatic irony.

“It has everything you need,” said the salesman. “And everything you want. And everything you just….” He squinted, pinching his fingers together as if trying to recall something. “Everything you forgot you needed.”
“Uh huh,” said Keith. “Sounds legit.”

A dubious trade for some machine parts leads Keith to making a deal with an shifty salesman, or more specifically, the magic box in his possession. But the trade comes at a price, and slowly but surely, Keith realizes that everyone and everything is beginning to forget him.

"Why?"
"Why leave home and drive across the country? Well, Keith, is your life going the way you thought it would?"

Summary
So, Lance has to fight five champions of an alien race to save Keith- wouldn't sound too hard if he wasn't blind from an injury at that very moment. Oh, and did he mention that if he doesn't defeat the five then Keith is given to them like some prize? Some delicious little prize that they will most likely do whatever they please with?
Left to fend for themselves, blinded and injured, two unlikely Paladins must work together to survive. Tensions get high with horrid creatures, a determined assassinator, and their growing attraction to the other.
So, both a frustrating tension and sexual one, huh? Or could you consider those the same thing?
(There is art for this story, check the notes)Edit: Some chapters have been edited (spelling, grammar. I try to get everything I can but I apologize for my terrible grammar!)

Summary
“How does this keep happening to us, every time.” Lance grumbled.
“You’d think they’d stop sending us on away missions,” he agreed. Honestly, between the poisonous plants of their last planet, and Lance’s tendency to always end up on the business end of every blaster or pointy ended stick, Allura was just being inefficient at this point.
Or, five times Keith kissed Lance but the situation was less than ideal, and one time Lance finally kissed him back.

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?"

“You can stay the night here.” Keith ventured, seeing the way the other man staggered to the door. “If you um–want. Sleep some of the drunk off.”
Lance leaned his back against the door. His eyelids drooped. “Nah, I’m good. It’s not like I’m your boyfriend or whatever.”
Keith blinked, taking in the words.
“Yeah.” He felt his eyes burn, looking down.
Lance opened the door and strolled out. “Goodnight, Keith.”
He got no reply.
or
Keith and Lance start hooking up at parties and learn about the intricacies of alien biology in the middle of a space war.

"Truly hideous, those eyes," Om'e murmured, as if to themselves. "May Ahnos accept this offering."
Distantly, Keith was aware that he was crying.
And then he wasn't aware of anything at all.

Summary
“Whitaker, you need to sit down. You have a concussion.” The voice next to him tries to tell him, and it's almost familiar this time.
“Yeah I realized that, I am a fuckin' doctor. Student doctor. Whatever.” he replies, turning to squint at the man sitting next to him. “Look, can you just get Dr. Robby? He’ll tell you I'm fine, I gotta get back to work, I got… patients and shit.”
The man looks at someone behind him, some expression he can’t quite figure out. He starts to say something else, and—oh shit he’s gonna throw up fuck—he tries to lean away and not vomit all over anyone else. He doesn't quite make it.
“Shit,” yeah, he definitely ruined that guy’s shoes. Whoops. “Sorry.”

Summary
When Keith found himself mentally linked to Lance of all people, he never thought that it would end in anything but irritation and misery on both sides. He certainly never imagined that it would be a useful asset in team Voltron's fight against the Galra Empire. Now if he can just keep his feelings in check, they might actually have a chance at defeating Zarkon.
Needless to say, when he'd wished for a “bonding moment” with Lance, this wasn't exactly what he'd had in mind.
(Eventual romance and mature content for later chapters).

Summary
“Keith,” he called out again, louder now. “Keith, —”
Keith stirred weakly.
A broken sound left his throat, somewhere between a groan and a breath. His head rolled slightly toward Lance, eyes fluttering open for half a second before slipping shut again. He was being half-dragged, half-carried by the Galran guards as he slipped in and out of consciousness. The blood dripped down from the wound on his head, past his eye and down to his chin.
Lance decided that he would do whatever he had to do to keep them together. They cannot get separated. Keith needs him. He can’t lose Keith.
“That’s it,” Lance said, voice shaking. “That’s it, okay? You’re doing great. Just—just keep breathing.”
Keith and Lance end up stranded on a planet after a mission goes wrong.
But that's only where their troubles begin.
Captured and tortured relentlessly, Keith finds something out about himself that shocks him to his core.
Terrified and delirious, Lance doesn't take it too well.
Their relationship strains before it shifts and deepens as they work together to escape alive. -

Summary
Keith stared at him again, like he was desperately searching for something in Lance that he couldn’t quite find. “There’s no way I’m one of you.”
“Don’t be so sure,” Lance said. “All humans are different. I know plenty of grouchy people.”
“Um, have I stabbed you yet? No? Then I’m not grouchy.”
