    Trouble's Making Everything All Right by

    Fandom Voltron: Legendary Defender

    26 Feb 2023

    Summary

    Two Paladins become two rough and tumble mercenaries, donning their leather coats and gun holsters, righting wrongs (while committing a few heists of their own), and fighting to get off this bleak, crime-filled planet.

    Also known as Lance and Keith's Space Cowboy Adventures.

    For even more adventures (ones that I couldn't quite find a place for here), check out this series: A Little Extra Trouble.

    (Series being translated into Czech by the amazing Enikawa_Moriko! Click here! Now also being translated into Spanish by the incredible Tiannabeth, Over Here!)

    Note: This series is intended to be read in the order it's already laid out/posted in, but naturally, I can't stop y'all from reading however you'd like :)

    Trouble Coming (In the Dead of Night) by

    Fandoms: Voltron: Legendary Defender

    Summary

    Lance was reclined on a high couch, his long legs encased in dark brown leather pants, his stained off-white shirt missing its first two buttons, revealing tantalizing glimpses of caramel skin and collarbone.

    Now Keith was the one getting distracted … But he refocused on the game, on his nearly winning hand. He reminded himself that, unlike the poor gullible bastards at this table, Keith would be walking out of here with some extra gems, and taking that charming cowboy home to his bed.

     

    For six months, Keith and Lance have been stranded on a world that has no law and order except the law of the gun. They've survived by becoming a pair of notorious mercenary-cowboys-for-hire, loyal only to each other.

    Summary

    Based on a writing prompt I saw:

    https://x.com/KaylaAncrum/status/1748613400010121444

    "Man who falls in love with a sphynx and solves her riddles daily, in spite of the threat to his life.
    The boon he requests every night is to sleep by her side in the warm sand and wake up safe. As he grows old, then forgetful, she reconfigures her riddles to accept any answer."

    I took this in my own direction.

    Summary

    I went to sleep on the worst day of my life and woke to find myself in the past on the second worst day of my life. As experiences go, I don’t recommend it.
