Summary
Lance notices something is a little off about Keith lately. Little does he know, Keith is going through some sort of Galran mating cycle--but once he finds out, he really can't be blamed for what happens next. What's he supposed to do, *not* try to get Keith to jump his bones?

Summary
Lance let out a squawk. “Coran didn’t say this was a partner situation!” he hissed in Keith’s ear.
Keith side-eyed him and quirked a brow. “You scared?”
“No!” Lance shot back quickly, folding his arms across his chest and pouting. Cute. “I just was looking forward to kicking your butt,” he admitted after a moment, then immediately straightened his back and put his hands on his hips, the paper crumpling slightly in his grip. His expression shifted to one of determination. Hot. No, God, stop that. “But no use crying over it! We’re gonna win this thing, Kogane. We’re gonna win it so good.”
Keith felt his lips twist into a smirk. “Hell yeah, we are.”
----
Keith and Lance agree to enter an alien competition for the sake of honoring the planet's culture and fostering an alliance. They don't realize until later that they're not competing against one another--they're partners competing against other teams of two. It only gets stranger as the "trials" they undergo together become suspiciously more and more intimate... but hey, anything for the sake of winning, right?
Written for the "First of Forever" zine!

Summary
“It’s good to see you,” Romelle said, letting her hand drop just a few inches from Allura’s shoulder to the side of her bicep, warmth bleeding through the white wool of her peacoat. “It’s been—” She paused, thumb laying idle at the edge of Allura’s underarm. “It feels like ages. But I suppose it hasn’t been that long.”
“Seven weeks,” Allura supplied without thought. “And two days.”
Romelle’s smile faltered for a moment, and Allura tensed, waiting for it to turn sickly sweet and pitying. It did not. It grew softer, certainly, but there was something respectful in it. Patient.
“Yes,” she said. “Seven weeks. And two days.”
---------
Allura grapples with the complexities of love and loss, death and life. What parts she must retain, and what parts she must leave behind. Luckily, her loved ones can help her.

Summary
“Can you kiss me?”
Lance doesn’t know where the words came from, but he wishes he did, because then maybe he would be able to shove them right back into their evil, embarrassing source and pretend they never existed.
Unfortunately, his only available recourse now is to choke on his own breath and watch as Keith’s head rears back in shock, that ridiculous, gorgeous hair tousling with the movement and then settling against the smooth surface of his neck. Dark eyes—who the hell gave this jerk the right to have such nice eyes?—bore into Lance’s own, so intense and grave that all Lance can do is turn his gaze and fix it pointedly on a half-empty water bottle at the far side of the training deck.
-------------
Lance lets an embarrassing comment slip during a friendly spar and has to deal with the consequences.

Summary
“Lady Romelle of Pollux.” The queen’s voice was cream poured over chocolate; sweet and silken and irresistible. “You have exhibited bravery and devotion befitting of a true knight of Altea, and for that you have the gratitude of this kingdom—and of me.” Her words softened at the end, just a hair. Not enough for anyone else to notice it, but Romelle knew. She always knew.
Romelle watched, her breath thin and suspended in her chest, as Allura gestured to a nearby squire, who strode forward with a long, bejeweled sword perched reverently on his upturned palms. He presented it to the queen, who wrapped an elegant brown hand around the gilded hilt and raised it, letting the engraved runes along the blade catch in the light.
“Kneel,” she said, holding Romelle’s gaze and pointing the sword directly at her, “and be chosen.”
-----
After having won a decisive victory for the kingdom of Altea, Romelle is awarded a knighthood by her queen, Allura.

Summary
“No, really, he’d love to,” Lance said into the phone, just as Keith pressed the button for the kettle to start heating up.
Those words were enough to raise Keith’s suspicions just a tad. He shot Lance an inquisitive glance while opening the cabinet to retrieve his box of morning tea, but his husband was the picture of innocence, flipping casually through a Home Depot catalog they had received in the mail yesterday.
“Oh, definitely. If you need someone to paint your insides white, Keith’s your man.”
Keith dropped his box on the counter, tea bags spilling out onto the granite.
-----
Keith is having a normal, relaxing morning. Lance throws him a curveball.

Summary
“Oh shit—I mean shoot—I’m so sorry! Are you alright?”
The frantic voice overhead startled Keith into leaping up and backward, automatically assuming a defensive stance. His vision narrowed in on the boy in front of him—brown skin, brown hair, blue eyes, light freckles. And floating around him, extending from his palms: a stream of water, restrained in thin air as if by an invisible tube.
Alright, so, Keith had definitely blown his cover, but there were arguably more important matters at hand right now.
“What the hell is that?” he managed to spit out, pointing at the serpentine swell of water and rubbing at his reddened cheek. “Is that what—did you attack me with that thing?” It was unlike anything he had ever seen before, like—
Like magic.
**
Keith, terrified of his fire magic, has been living in hiding for two years on the outskirts of the kingdom of Terra. He has managed to avoid human contact with remarkable success, but he finds his solitude jeopardized when a strange young man in finely tailored clothes begins frequenting his forest. He is the picture of nobility and sophistication—things Keith could not be more unfamiliar with—but they may have more in common than meets the eye.

Summary
Adjusting to life on New Altea had been easy, at first. Romelle had spent phoebs wrapped up in exploration and development alongside Allura. And then she had spent phoebs wrapped up in—
Well, in Allura.
It had all felt quite natural. Romelle was no brilliant strategist, but she was intuitive, and she knew how to help Allura make the people happy. Late evenings turned to late nights turned to all nights, and none of it ever felt rushed or prolonged.
Romelle had never been more content with her life than the moment she had first been able to call Allura "wife." Her whole world slid into place with a great resounding sigh.
And then she was—Queen Romelle. And that was something else entirely.
———
Romelle, now Queen of New Altea alongside her wife Allura, struggles with her newfound responsibilities and has to reconcile who she is with who she must be. Thankfully, she does not have to bear the burden alone.

Summary
“I'm sure there's something I could do to convince you …”
She met his sultry gaze with a hard stare.
Pike winced a little, but recovered quickly. “You know … some kind of … arrangement, between you and me?” He slowly, slowly licked his lips. “You'll find I have many talents … especially in the—”
———
“I cast Moonbeam.”
“Wha—Keith!” Lance clambered over the table, his long limbs flailing as he grabbed the die before Keith could so much as twitch. “Stop ruining my class fantasy!” His eyes were blazing with genuine annoyance as he shimmied back into his seat, clutching the die to his chest protectively. “I have very high charisma! This is supposed to be my thing!”
———
In a game of Monsters & Mana, Keith keeps picking fights with everyone Lance attempts to flirt with—so Lance decides to turn the tables on him and have his character attempt to seduce Keith's. It doesn't exactly go as planned.

Summary
“Lance? Lance can you hear—” Keith's voice crackled unintelligibly. “—big hit. Are you—” More crackling, and—silence.
Lance frantically pressed his comm button. “Keith? Keith, hey, uh, small problem maybe—”
The control panel flickered a few times, then sputtered out, and suddenly Red was falling—eerily slow at first, then faster than a bullet. Lance bit back a scream, smashing buttons and yanking at the controls desperately, but Red just kept falling, falling, falling, and all Lance could do was watch as she turned belly-up in the air, giving him a perfect, horrible view of Black taking several heavy shots directly to the cockpit.
This time he did scream. But it did no good, and Lance was forced to watch as Black—as Keith—careened toward the moon's surface, a faint trail of purple dusting his wake like the tail of a comet.
————–
Lance and Keith are sent on a mission to answer a distress signal from the desert moon of Xat-lor VII. They get more than they bargained for, both in enemy numbers and in feelings. They have to fight to survive long enough for the rest of their team to arrive, and in the meantime, Things Happen.

Summary
“A pillow fort sleepover!” Lance cried out, leaping up with such alacrity that Pidge had to grab her laptop to prevent it from sliding to the floor.
“No way, we're not—” Pidge stopped and blinked, exchanging a glance with Hunk, then looking back at Lance again. “... Oh.” She evidently had not been expecting such a tame suggestion. “Okay.”
-------------
Or, Lance is bored out of his mind and decides to organize a sleepover with the squad. Nonsense ensues, and Lance works through some confusing emotions—particularly those involving a certain mullet-haired team leader.
