Summary
Sure enough, it’s frigid against his pores. But, more importantly, a white blanket covers the evergreens, dusting their branches and settling into a thick, powdery layer across the hidden grass below.
“It snowed!” Lance grins wildly, joy taking over his face and motivating him to jump across the room, digging through his suitcase suddenly.

Summary
When he woke up, Keith Kogane was very distinctly not in his bed.
Keith grabbed his head as the memories returned in jabbing, painful flashes, as if they were being forced upon his mind. Shouting. Torches. Gunshots, punching dangerously past the narrow space between his ear and shoulder.
Where am I?
--
The universe is a confusing and complicated place. It holds secrets in its web, contains multitudes in a series of truths that contradict everything Keith knows. And what does he know, anyway?
Keith's only ever been one thing during the span of his life: lost. And that's all he's ever capable of being.
Tripping through the brush, stumbling over hills, and sliding down riverbanks, Keith can run and run and run and run, but he will never find it. No matter how many twisted reflections he sees in the puddles at his feet.
And the stars, they weep.

Summary
Lance McClain, an experienced spy for the elite Voltron agency, takes an undercover mission to infiltrate an elegant party hosted by the powerful Galra crime family. Posing as a musician, he runs into Keith, a waiter, and immediately hits on him. Unfortunately for Lance, Keith is not a waiter.
He's /also/ a spy, running a parallel covert mission for the secretive Blade of Marmora agency.
While they resolve to stay out of each other's way, they physically cannot, and end up colliding as they try to execute their individual missions. Packed with intrigue, dramatic ballroom dancing, and good-old-fashioned stabbing, the night seems to have different plans in store.

Summary
“Welcome, all, to a day we surely could not have predicted a decade ago.”
Laughter reaches Lance’s ears, but he doesn’t turn. How could he? Across from him stands an impossibility, magnetically drawing his attention with the ease of the sun. All-encompassing and vital, Keith Kogane very might well be their yellow, shining, life-giving star.

Or: Lance and Keith get married.

Summary
It’s 10:15 on a Sunday morning, and Steve is on Eddie Munson’s couch.
More specifically: Steve is on Eddie Munson’s couch, in his boxer shorts and a shirt that's clearly been slept in, eating dry cereal out of the box and blinking slowly at the TV, which is currently playing WWF. His hair is more of a mess than Dustin has ever seen it outside of literal fights to the death. Eddie himself is nowhere to be seen.
“What the hell are you doing here?” Dustin demands, dropping his backpack just inside the door.

Summary
Eddie won't stop touching anyone and everyone, except for Steve. He has a plan to change that.
*
“You can touch me.” That was not how Steve intended for it to come out. He opened his mouth and closed it a few times.
Eddie had frozen with his fingers halfway to his mouth. Smoke curled from his cigarette between them. He raised his eyebrows, then frowned, then bit his lip.
“I can-” Eddie said slowly, his face still rolling through several emotions without landing on one- “touch you?”
