Summary
Ever since Pidge revealed she was a girl her team seems to have become a bunch of overprotective, overbearing idiot males and it’s pissing her off. She’s still the same person and more than capable of taking care of herself. But in her determination to prove herself independent she winds up injured. Badly. She can handle it on her own though. She doesn’t need their help.
But hiding her injury has dire consequences and now it’s not just her freedom at stake but her life.
And Lance’s.
The world is falling down literally and figuratively around them and Pidge realizes she can’t save him alone. She needs help. Lance’s help. And as dire as the situation is there’s almost something optimistic about being trapped at the bottom: the only place to go is up.
Now if they can only reach it before time runs out.

Summary
Keith wheezed, trying to summon air back to his crushed windpipe. Lance… Lance could have killed him. Lance was dangerous. He was somehow incapable right now of recognizing friend from foe. Keith staggered to his feet. They needed to stop Lance. They needed to stop him now. / Lance is not himself. He's sick. And scared. And to protect himself… he has to kill them.

Summary
Lance is well aware he's the weak link on Team Voltron. He knows he's not the brightest. But he's not stupid. And he's always thought that even despite his shortcomings he had not just a place with Voltron, but friends who would look out for him just as he would do for them.
But that doesn't seem to be the case anymore. While there's no knife to stab him in the back, the ones his friends wield with their cruel, heartless words cuts just as deep. And by the time Lance realizes that something is wrong, that these people are not his friends, it's too late.
The feast has begun.

Summary
Lance has a problem. Maybe. He thinks so at least. It’s sort of hard to remember things these days. But it feels like something is off. Wrong. He thinks he needs help. But… help for what? Wait… Why does he need help again?
Or; Lance develops amnesia that starts as short term memory loss and steadily grows worse. The team can only watch with rising despair as the Lance they know fades away memory by memory with the cruel knowledge that unless they come up with some miracle cure Lance will forget how to function, how to live. And then… Lance will die.

Summary
There were murmured, familiar voices when Lance awoke that quieted almost immediately when he blinked open his eyes. "Easy, easy," someone soothed as he tried to sit up. Someone familiar. Lance gasped. "Mamá?" Because somehow... somehow he was home. / Lance is injured in a fight against the Galra and wakes to find himself in the care of his family. But... how did he wind up back on Earth? Something isn't quite right...

Summary
It’s just a headache. Lance knows it’s just a headache because it’s not allowed to be anything else as that would be a cause for worry and he doesn’t want to worry anyone. So it’s just a headache. It was just a routine mission that he absolutely didn’t almost die by a Druid during. And everything is just fine.

Summary
There’s a traitor in the Coalition.
Lance is the only one who manages to escape the subsequent trap but the rest of his team is captured and they're counting on him to save them, but Lance knows he can't do it alone (he can't seem to do anything right). The Coalition cannot be trusted to help, but there are some people above reproach amongst the Rebels and Blades and now it's up to Lance, Coran, Matt and Keith to save everyone.
Only, that is, if there's anyone left to save.

Summary
Keith knows. Lance knows. The wound — metal punctured through Lance’s entire right side and emerging in jagged shards through his chest and stomach — is fatal. There’s nothing Keith can do. Nothing except be there and listen to Lance’s last words and his last breaths.

Summary
They would never allow Lance, an outsider, to be with their princess, the men had sneered. He wasn’t worthy enough. And tonight they would make sure he absolutely never would be.
But things don’t quite go according to their plans. The only solution now to save themselves is to hide the evidence of their actions and kill Lance.
But that plan doesn’t quite go accordingly either. And Shiro is going to make sure it never does.

Summary
Lance isn’t sure he’s ever felt this tired before. It’s not just from the lack of sleep. It’s not just because of the near endless list of chores he does because everyone else has far more important things to do and he should try to pull his weight where he can. And it’s not entirely from the heavy disappointment that seems to emanate from Shiro every time he looks at Lance knowing that Lance doesn’t measure up as Red Paladin no matter how hard he tries. But all of those things together (although is he missing one? He’s so tired, it’s hard to focus) are heavy and exhausting and Lance is tired.
So, so tired.
"This is a beyond dangerous mission,” Shiro continued, looking at Lance, “and despite our best attempts there are likely to be casualties. If you are not committed to serving Voltron then it might be time to consider finding someone who might be better suited to the r—”
“Stop!” Hunk was on his feet, entire body shaking, as though speaking now could drown out Shiro’s intent.
Lance felt faint.
Shiro wanted to...
...replace him?

Summary
When Lance disappears from the reception hall during a party and Voltron is sent to look for him, Keith’s first thought was frustration because why can’t Lance just obey Shiro’s orders like everyone else? But when they find signs of an attack that frustration morphs to fear and it only grows colder as when Keith does finally locate Lance… he’s outside, collapsed in the snow, and he isn’t moving.

Summary
“Atrocities?” the elder murmured. “You think we are committing atrocities? No,” he gave a shake of his head. “We are imparting our history to Voltron. We want you to understand the pain we have felt, the suffering we have endured, the hopelessness we have despaired in. Only then can you understand and only then can you fix what your absence, your failure in your duties, has caused.”
And the way chosen for Voltron to fix this broken world? They'll need to select among themselves a sacrifice to die and absolve the rest of Voltron of its perceived sins.
And Lance knows without a doubt who it has to be. He's the weak link after all and the rest of them are so much more important for the fate of the universe. He couldn't save his team from this torture, but he can absolutely save them from death.

Summary
Lance knows his close quarters combat isn’t the best, so when Shiro tells Lance he’s going to train him he should be relieved because maybe now he can actually protect his team. Except the training seems to be more of a beatdown punctuated by both fists and cruel words and now Lance has to hide the results of such before he makes tensions in Voltron even worse. But that’s harder than planned on as Keith is both very observant and very, very concerned.
“Do you think the Galra Empire will care that you’re tired?” Shiro interrupted him. “Do you think they’ll go easy on you because you’ve been fighting all day?”
“No, but—”
“There are no buts, Lance,” Shiro cut him off. “Either you want to be a Paladin your team can count on or you don’t.”

Knuckles growls. Amy puts a hand on his shoulder, trying to say I’m here but also don’t you dare.
She’ll hold him down if she has to.
Doesn’t he know that no one wants to bash those badniks down more than her? She burns with it. But she knows she can’t, she can’t risk it, they just can’t. And Knuckles knows it too.
“I know,” says Amy. “But not today.”

“Who are you?” Clark asks, voice deep and raspy with sleep. “How did you get in here?”
“Batman said to come to you if there’s an emergency,” the boy says, surprisingly timid for a kid in bright colors who has broken into his apartment and shaken him awake.

Summary
Bruce nods. “It makes the most sense. You haven’t been made, you’re the right age, and your face isn’t known in that circle. We’ll fabricate a profile and ID. You’ll go during lunch, find Everett’s bag, get the drive, and extract quietly.”
Tim just stares at him. “You want me to go undercover… as a girl?”
Steph claps her hands, grinning ear to ear. “Best day of my life.”
