Summary
“Shit,” Keith had said then, and he almost laughed at the deadpan delivery of the swear word. Though hilarious, it’s fitting for the turn of events, because of course it happens. Of course it happens to Keith. It’s almost like the universe decided that it wasn’t done fucking with his life.
Keith has never been a stranger to heartache, but he didn’t think it would be the thing that would kill him in the end.
What a way to go, to die from a loss you’ve never even had the chance to hold.
OR, Keith gets Hanahaki, and comes to terms with it (against everyone's will).

Summary
Lance is like a star, vibrant and beautiful, the promise of life and a shoulder to lean on, and Keith… just a nebula beside him, he supposes. Cold, rigid.
Together, maybe they make Earth.
Or maybe they’re always meant to be this way, just a star and a nebula, so close yet so far. Maybe Keith is always supposed to only watch Lance, hang in the space between what he knows and what he wants, and savor that brightness from behind the cover of “just friends.”
---
Or Keith realizes in the thick of the situationship that he's hopelessly in love with Lance. Some serious self-reflection ensues.

OR
Lance's crush on Keith turns into something as they navigate nerves, awkward moments, and the first sparks of what could be love.

Summary
"You’re awkward, you struggle to put thoughts into words and orders, and sometimes your impulsiveness put the whole team in jeopardy.
So share that burden with me.
I don’t care if we keep on arguing or fighting until we’re bloodied and bruised, but as long as you’re here, at least the team is complete.
Just. Don’t ever fucking leave, okay?”
He didn’t bother to wait around, leaving Keith all by himself in the healing pod.
He did, however, say with a wobbly voice as if to lighten up the mood:
“Make that my birthday gift, would you? My birthday’s in a few vargas anyway.”
See, Keith wondered: how the hell was Lance able to keep track of Earth’s date in space?
But, more than that, guilt was eating him alive from the inside at making Lance go through all that fear when it was only vargas away from his birthday.
He had to properly apologise - or something.
or the black paladin wanted to make it up to his red paladin - by perhaps making a fool of himself by, for the first time, trying to plan a surprise birthday party all by himself for the said red paladin.

Summary
Just don't stare, and just act like everything is normal.
Lance mustered up his most normal ‘I am totally not thinking of sweeping Keith off his feet just because he's a girl now’ face before he spoke as casually as possible.
(His breath may have caught a little in his throat when he made eye contact with Keith, but it didn't happen as long as he didn't acknowledge it.)
“So. Do you prefer to go by he/him or she/her now? Oh, but maybe you would prefer to go by my/mine?”
…
Not a muscle on Keith's face twitched.
What the cheese.
“What the fu-?” Keith had started to say, only to be cut off by Pidge deadpanning something along the lines of ‘that was painful to watch’ while Hunk defended Lance's honour with a sheepish ‘that's not his best line really’.
or to secure an alliance, Keith ended up alternating between being a girl and a boy for some time. It was a change of perspective for a certain someone. (Why does it take seeing girl Keith for Lance to see just how beautiful Keith himself is?)
additionally: my excuse to write Lance realising he’s down bad for Keith.

Summary
Keith never had any plans for a future beyond shuffling between abandoned buildings on the streets, selling blowjobs to buy food. That was all he thought his life would ever amount to – until he saw a commercial for the Galaxy Garrison, promising a better future.
Iverson always wanted a family, but his fiancee had walked out on him years ago, fed up with him prioritizing his job over his relationship. That was the end of that, until the local cops dropped a skittish foster kid in his lap, offering him an unconventional second chance at family.
Shiro could barely hold it together under the pressure to be the perfect student, to be everything to everyone. The last thing he needed was to have even more responsibilities dumped on him, least of all having to tutor a young aspiring pilot so much more promising than himself.

Summary
Free WiFi, private bath, complimentary toiletries, one king size honeymoon suite bed, minibar—hold up. Honeymoon?
“Lance!” He hissed, eyes flicking back to the top of the page where the words were repeated. “This says it’s a honeymoon suite!”
“How did I know you were gonna say something about that,” Lance mumbled under his breath. “Listen, it’s just the name of the room, we don’t actually have to be on a honeymoon to rent it, and besides, it was the only one they had left, ok? We have been through so much worse, I know you can handle one night sharing a bed with me.”
“Fine,” Keith begrudgingly agreed. Sleeping in the same bed as Lance certainly wouldn’t do anything for the massive crush he’d been harboring on his teammate, but it wasn’t like they’d never slept in the same bed before. This entire mission they’d been packed together like sardines, first in the ship and then on Etunae, so what was a little more?
Spoiler Alert: It’s more than just the name of the room.

Summary
“Some things don’t rot all at once — they dry, they quiet, they pretend to live a little longer.”
_____________________
“Two of the three missing persons have been found… brutally murdered and dismembered.”
The anchor’s voice was steady. Emotionless.
“The first victim, twenty-three-year-old Sara Moore, was discovered in Weatherbea Forest. Her head is still missing and has not yet been recovered—”Click.
Mrs. McClain changed the channel before the sentence could finish. Her hand trembled slightly. Her husband was already late. She didn’t need to hear more about heads missing in the woods.

Summary
When Lance starts to struggle in training, Shiro thinks it might be helpful for Keith to talk to him about it. Lance could learn combat techniques from Keith. They have a similar size and build, and who knows, maybe they'll bond and start getting along.
Embarrassed about this, Lance tries to train by himself late in the night to catch up to the rest of the team. Coincidentally, this is when Keith likes to train. -

Summary
“Mission successful. Prep a pod for the recovered prisoner, and tell Pidge I have her flashdrive,” he says before shutting off the comm again. After Allura’s affirmation, Keith frowns. “Thought you were human.”
Lance realizes he's still clinging to Keith and lets go, curling his arm around his torso instead. “I'm not. Never have been.”
“And you didn't bother to mention this when I was losing my shit over being Galra?” Keith’s arms fold across his chest.
Heat flares in his eyes, and Lance flinches. “I couldn't. I know I'm a hypocrite, but I swear I couldn't say anything.”
“And why not?” his friend snaps.
Lance clenches and unclenches his hands, avoiding Keith’s eyes. He opens his mouth to answer, but Elo’ki’s voice sounds before his own does: “Because our prince was never supposed to return home.”
***
Or: Lance has played human for nearly a decade. Now, after rescuing an old friend from a Galra outpost, he realizes that he can't keep hiding his past. His home planet and his people are in danger, and even though he was never supposed to return to space, he can't leave them under Galra rule when he can finally do something about it.

Summary
They were never meant to meet—
let alone matter to each other.After one scandal too many, Prince Keith Kogane is exiled to Altea Academy: a prestigious boarding school full of rules, traditions, and expectations he wants nothing to do with. But beneath the glittering halls and ivy-covered walls, Altea is a gilded cage.
Then there’s Lance.
Sharp-tongued, magnetic, and carrying secrets behind perfect smiles, Lance McClain is a scholarship student who’s always kept his head down—until the prince with storm-colored eyes disrupts everything.
From glances in candlelit chapels to whispered words between choir rehearsals, Keith and Lance are drawn together like constellations meant to collide.
But falling for each other risks everything: duty, family, legacy.
Now they must decide—
Live the lives they were born into?
Or fight for the truth they were never allowed to choose?
