Summary
Lance is alive. He’s been alive this whole time as not just a prisoner of the Galra Empire… but as their assassin. Shiro’s head aches with his own press of memories as to what Lance must have suffered, how he’d been tortured, to become a cold-blooded killer that goes against every value Lance held dear. But while there’s nothing they can do to change the past they have a way to change the future and now it’s time to find Lance and bring him home.
—
Sniper is confused. He shouldn’t know those people, he doesn’t know those people and yet… yet there’s a whisper of familiarity that makes his chest ache and his hand pause on the trigger. But Mistress’ whispers are even louder and his screams as she forces him to forget them and replace them with only the faces and feelings of enemies are the loudest of them all.

Summary
When Lance decides to take over his grandmother’s highly-acclaimed coffee shop, he quickly realizes there are much bigger issues at hand than the struggle of carrying out his family legacy. Like his annoyingly handsome ex, for instance. Lance is determined to taste sweet success, but with memories of his romantic past making an unfortunate comeback, it seems like there might be more than just coffee brewing between them.

Summary
Lance’s posture has gone from somewhat respectable to bad to worse, and his attention span is slowly but surely reaching its breaking point, when the door in the back of the room slides open.
Blue and gray and black. Long, dark hair. A familiar set of eyes. The same faded scar carved along his cheek.
Lance jerks upright, nearly jumping out of his chair.
“I’m filling in for Kolivan.”
The words strike right through Lance’s sternum. And he didn’t even have his defenses up. He didn’t have time to prepare.
Although somewhere deep down, he knows that no time in the world could’ve prepared him for seeing Keith again.
or: Being stuck with his ex at a diplomatic conference for a solid month is super cool and very fun. Because Lance is over him. Obviously. He so is.

Never Forget (Until It's All You Can Do) by IcyPanther
Fandoms: Voltron: Legendary Defender
10 Jul 2020
Tags
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.

My Soul Has Your Claim, My Soul Is In Flames by queen-of-voltronian (TellyMauve)
Fandoms: Voltron: Legendary Defender

Summary
Does anyone know Lance is in love with Keith?
Of course not. And Lance would very much like to keep it that way, thank you! Keith already doesn't want anything to do with him ever since coming back from that space whale; the last thing Lance needs on top of his crumbling self-worth and shaky standing in the team is a rejection that shatters his heart in pieces, too.
But now, Lance got himself in a bit of a pickle. Which is fine, because Lance has a plan to get out of it! A wonderful, brilliant, masterful, completely fool-proof plan. His team won't look at him like he's more incompetent than they already do, he won't have to spend the rest of his life trapped on some alien planet, and Keith will never find out just how head over heels he is for him. It's a win-win-win situation.
Of course, with Keith, things are never quite so simple, and Lance's plan soon causes a domino effect that changes the entire course of his life.
Or:
Maybe Lance should have been a little more specific when he said he'd do anything to get home. Because now...
"You must bestow a kiss on the one your soul most desires."
...Fuck.

Summary
It’s finally happened. After constantly feeling like the most useless member of Voltron, of being the seventh wheel with nothing of value to add to the team, Lance has been acknowledged for his sharpshooting talents. Just one small problem: it’s the Galra Empire that’s taken notice. They want to use his talents to turn him into an assassin and they’ll do anything they have to, use any measure necessary, to break him down and mold him into their own perfect soldier.

Summary
Keith has never really been good with words. He says what he means, and more often than not, what he doesn't mean, leading to several uncomfortable situations.
One of said occasions happens on a planet during a mission, where Keith's attempt at complimenting the blue paladin is entirely misinterpreted, but Keith isn't able to properly apologize before the mission goes south, resulting in Lance being subjected to the 'gifts' the locals possess.
So now Keith is at an impasse, with his communication skills severely lacking in the comforting department, and his growing feelings towards Lance making everything so much more difficult than it needs to be.
If only there were a way to talk to the blue paladin without using words..... ..-. / --- -. .-.. -.-- / .... . / .... .- -.. / -.- -. --- .-- -. / .-.. .- -. -.-. . / -.- -. . .-- / -- --- .-. ... . / -.-. --- -.. . / ... --- --- -. . .-. .-.-.-

Summary
Lance’s halted speech broke into staggered coughs. I wouldn’t never let anything happen to Voltron. Never on my life would I have acted so absent mindedly with the weight of the universe looming over me. He tried again: “Ah-en—” Another cough. “Y—”
“Lance, stop it,” Pidge said, “You’re going to hurt yourself.”
A pen. He needed a pen and paper. Then he could write what happened.
He gestured in the air, mimicking scribbles, mimicking a sheet. All he got in response was pitiful stares.
Lance’s heart sank. They weren’t listening. They weren’t listening.
An exchange with a cynical alien during a diplomatic mission leaves Lance unable to speak or defend his honor when he is accused of a wrongdoing he didn't commit.

Summary
“The team- well, they kind of…” His voice quieted, almost too quiet to hear. “…left me behind.”
Keith heard him.
“What do you mean they left you behind?” A coil of rage pooled in his gut.
Or
Lance gets left on an unknown planet and Keith finds him when he gets sent there for a mission.

Summary
"I'm hallucinating now," Damian muttered to himself, as the boy stared at him, uncertainly, "Mhm, pretty sure I'm not a hallucination."
"That's what a hallucination would say, Richard," he said, knowing he sounded petulant. Whatever the Galra had given him to keep him quiet, it was stronger than many of the drugs he had become accustomed to during his training with the League of Assassins.
It was only for this reason that he risked falling forward. Fortunately for him, he was promptly grabbed by the boy. It was a strong, solid grip, and definitely not a hallucination.
Damian looked up, meeting eyes that reminded him of a dead man, and the other said, "You confused me with another person. My name is not Richard. It's Lance."
(During his imprisonment on an alien ship, after sacrificing himself to save Earth, Damian meets a boy who reminds him terribly of his dead brother. He can't be who he believes, but the resemblance is striking, and Damian just wants to believe that something left by Dick Grayson still exists.)

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.”

When It Comes to You, I Dance the Line Between Genius and Crazy by ArchitectOfTheStars
Fandoms: Voltron: Legendary Defender
13 Nov 2020
Tags
Summary
Lance had heard somewhere that geniuses talked to themselves. He wasn’t sure where he’d heard it, or how true it was. If he reasoned through it--which Pidge always said he should do more--it didn’t really make sense to say that geniuses talked to themselves. Why would they? But she also insisted that when it came to science, it was better to trust good observational evidence than pure reasoning. And from the one example of a genius he knew--Pidge--he guessed it was true.
She talked to herself all the time.
It didn't bother him--in fact, he found it kind of cute. Except when she talked to herself about him.
***
Essentially, Pidge often says her thoughts out loud. And unfortunately for Lance, she apparently thinks about him a lot. It gets kinda awkward.
