Summary
“This isn’t some kind of joke to me,” Keith says quietly, eyes fluttering all over Lance’s face. It’s the bare minimum really—to have a man clarify that the situation he’s treated as some kind of burden isn’t truly a burden to him after all.
So: Caught between fear and something that feels dangerously like hope, Lance promptly loses his entire mind about it.

Summary
Can you fuck someone you're convinced you hate? Lance Álvarez and Keith Kogane, rich sons of rival families, are about to realize that the answer is yes.
Keeping rage and passion apart is difficult enough, but it's also only the beginning. As Lance gets swept up in a decadent affair with a mysterious man, and Keith struggles with ghosts from his shadowy past, the galaxy holds its breath for the storm encroaching on the horizon.
And through it all, somehow, they keep gravitating back to each other.

Summary
With a heavy sigh, Kaveh buried his face in his pillow. All of his romantic ideals, as usual, were quashed by the one man he actually yearned for such affections from - a marriage for the sake of fucking tax deductions.
Though it made sense in a cold, rational way, such a logical and disinterested proposal for Kaveh to willingly sacrifice his heart for nothing more than mora cut deep into his chest. And worst of all... Alhaitham was unaware that Kaveh’s heart could never even belong to anyone but him - that he was already the sole benefactor of Kaveh’s silent longing, having stolen Kaveh’s heart against his will long ago.
Kaveh curled around his pillow as if the soft cotton of his pillowcase could offer a reprieve from the turmoil churning deep in his stomach. He’d long since made peace with his unrequited love for Alhaitham, resigning himself to a lifetime of suppressed yearning - but this? This was torture, plain and simple, demanding mental gymnastics that Kaveh wasn’t confident he was flexible enough to contort himself into.

Summary
If Lance, at the bright age of 19 and fresh from Voltron's victory, had been told that nine years later he would be divorced, depressed, and playing second fiddle at his best friends wedding to fucking James Griffin, he probably would have laughed out loud and spit on the ground because that future felt so disconnected from the story Lance was telling himself about himself.
And yet, here he was- 28 years old, four years out from divorcing Allura, and James Griffin was meticulously putting together a charcuterie board right in front of him.
or
Lance is insecure at Hunk's bachelor party. Luckily, Keith is there.

Summary
After the war, Keith and Lance move in together.
__'Lance was almost thirty years old. Thirty!! He was being ridiculous. He’d had crushes before. He wasn’t called ‘Loverboy Lance’ for nothing. He should be able to man up and tell Keith how he felt. Only, it wasn’t a crush. It was so much more than that. If he told Keith…this is where his mind went blank. He couldn’t imagine his friend would treat him unkindly, nor could he even begin to believe his feelings were returned. What would happen? Would Keith reject him gently and promise nothing would change, only for the awkwardness to drive them apart? Lance couldn’t have that. More than just the object of his affection, Keith was his best friend. He was family. Lance couldn’t lose him just because he couldn’t keep his heart in his chest. At the same time, Lance wasn’t sure how much longer he could continue with his facade.'

Part Time Soulmate, Full Time Problem by StillKicking
Fandoms: Voltron: Legendary Defender

Summary
"Lance liked to daydream about what his soulmate might be like – when he felt scraped knees from a fall what wasn’t his, he wondered if his soulmate played tag with siblings too. When he felt a phantom loose tooth suddenly tugged out, he wondered if his soulmate’s parents bribed him with sweets the way that Lance’s did.
Keith tried not to think about his soulmate. A soulmate was just another person who would leave an aching hole in his chest when they left. When he felt scraped knees that weren’t his, or a loose tooth yanked free, he tried to pretend he didn’t feel it. He tried to pretend he didn’t have a soulmate at all."
voltron au where soulmates can feel each other's pain, and Keith and Lance have to figure out how to manage that in the middle of an ongoing intergalactic war. surely this will go smoothly

Summary
The first text message Lance ever got from Keith said are you home
No punctuation, no capital letters, nothing else. Just a question sans question mark, like he knew the answer already.
Probably because he did, if he’d been talking to the rest of the team, anyone at the Garrison, or any of Lance’s siblings. Lance hadn’t left home since he’d been released from the mandatory medical evaluation at the Garrison after the last solo mission that nearly killed him. It’d been nearly a year, and his feet hadn’t left the family farm’s soil since, which was exactly how Lance wanted it.

Summary
Pidge is still close —closer than is entirely comfortable if he has to be honest— giving him an evaluating glance. Lance doesn’t really know where to look, other than up her nose— but that grows old pretty fast. So he looks at himself in the reflection of her glasses. And squints.
He touches his own face for the first time since waking up— and feels the roughness of his chin.
“I have stubble,” he says, and the words are as alarmed as they can be even though they still sound slightly slurred, slightly off.
Pidge blinks a couple of times at him, and finally retracts into a more comfortable distance.
“Well, yeah,” she says. “You are like, what? 22? 23 in a couple of months?”
“I’m feeling— I’m feeling a little queasy,” he says then, with bright spots of color dancing in front of his eyes as he thinks 22.
Suddenly, a bucket gets shoved against his face. He takes hold of it with clammy fingers and he leans on his side so he can... use it. Thoroughly.
“I’m having Garrison flashbacks,” he hears Pidge say.
(Or: Lance is stung by an alien bug, loses his memories temporarily and makes assumptions about his and Keith's relationship. Also, Pidge cheats at Uno.)

Summary
“And how,” Keith says, drawing Lance out of his thoughts, “would you know if I’m single?”
The noise that falls out of Lance’s mouth is a mix between a snort and a scoff, and it comes totally unbidden. Two years ago, he would’ve been mortified to be caught making such an unattractive sound in Keith’s company. But, two years ago, he thought he and Keith were becoming something.
And approximately ten months ago, when they fell into bed together, he was certain they would. He’d asked, even. Tangled up in bedsheets, heart full and warm and satisfied, he’d asked Keith if they were something.
The next day, when he woke up alone with a hastily-written sticky note on the bathroom mirror and an alert in the group that the Blade had summoned Keith in the middle of the night, Lance got his answer.
He’d been mistaken, obviously.
･ ｡ﾟ☆: *.☽ .*
OR: after 10 months no-contact, Lance and Keith find themselves in the same roadside bar. Which could mean nothing, surely.

“What if he kills us?” Hunk whispers.
“What if?” Keith barks. “What else are we going to do? If we make him angry, it’s going to make things worse. Like he said, we’re trapped here. Our best bet is to play his games and try for the reward."
OR
When the team is spirited away to the galaxy's most infamous game show, Garfle Warfle Snick, they quickly learn that the games serve a more sinister purpose than entertainment. Without any memory of how they got there, or any idea how to escape, they're faced with an impossible choice: play the games, or die.

Before he knows it, he and Lance have overstayed their welcome at the afterparty bar, too, and Lance says, “I’d invite you up to my room, but I’m pretty sure Hunk is passed out right now,” and before Keith can second-guess it, he says, “I have beer in mine, if you still want to catch up.”
Which is weird. Since when do he and Lance catch up? Keith has no idea. He also has no idea what they’ve been talking about, other than anything and everything that’s not Shiro and the fact that he’s marrying someone who isn’t—
Fuck.

Summary
Lance stopped listening a long time ago. Something about his attention span constantly wandering to Keith beside him whenever he brushes his thumb across Lance’s knuckles or presses his foot against Lance’s. It’s the consistent contact that distracts him. He loves it.
“Please explain again what the issue is here?” Keith asks, directing a pointed glare towards the strangers.
The man across from them rubs his temple. He called himself Shiro earlier and that certainly didn’t ring any bells in Lance’s head. His recognition remains blank.
“I’m not saying you two can’t hold hands. It’s just—”
“This is going to be great blackmail material for when you regain your memories.”
(or due to a healing pod malfunction, Lance and Keith temporarily lose their memories only to become convinced that they’re dating)

“My Abuela said it,” Silvio insists. “She said you have to wear the hat, because you have a pale ass so you’re going to get skin cancer and die before Lance even wakes up.”
Keith looks between the children and the hat, too confused to glare, sweaty and horrid from pulling weeds beneath the scorching sun. “What?”
“That’s wrong,” Nadia complains, and yanks her brother down to her level to whisper the correction in his ear.
“Ooh,” Silvio amends. “Tía Veronica said you have a pale ass. My Abuela said you’re gonna die.”

When Lance is fatally wounded during their final battle, the blue lion enters a deep hibernation with Lance inside. Unsure when or if he’ll wake, Keith is forced to wait and watch over him in the company of the people he fears most: Lance’s family.

“I see your description of the Red Paladin wasn’t an exaggeration.” Rachel slinks up beside Lance with that annoying grin of hers. “He’s very pretty.”
“Hands off, Rachel. He’s gay.”
“Which works out perfectly for you.”
Crossing his arms, Lance scoffs. “He wouldn’t ever be interested in me.”
“He’s here, isn’t he?” Rachel shrugs. She already starts to walk back into the chaos but not before throwing one last look over her shoulder to say, “Pretty obvious to all of us.”
(Or, Keith gets injured on a Blade mission and decides to recuperate at Lance’s parents’ house. Things only escalate from there.)
