Shance au: lance was the one on the mission instead of shiro as team doctor. He hates the galra mostly for the horrible amputation they did on his arm.
Yo...what if...what if...Kerberos was suppose to be a four man mission.
Shiro was the pilot, Lance was the medic (and additional co-pilot), and Matt and Sam being science and engineering. And because Lance was the medic he was in tasked doing a lot of medical tests. He knew Shiro was sick, cause like he knows the signs, but was wasn’t going to say anything, because he had a theory that being in space might help prolong Shiro’s general health. And like it’s a historic mission, Shiro deserves it. Only some higher ups find out about it, and Sam isn’t able to talk them into keeping Shiro on the mission (even with Lance being tell them my theory and give them this proof). Turning it into a just a three man mission, as Lance becomes the Pilot and the missions medic.
And then the mission fails.
The Galra attack, and Lance goes into the ring and becomes the Champion.
Ultaz and Lance sort of a little be of loose repour, cause Ultaz gets Lance is medic. So Lance is little more willing to go when Ultaz breaks him out and sends him hurtling back to Earth....Only you know a head injury kind of makes that memory hard to access for Lance.
I could imagine the Garrison team send out to investigate is kind of able to move Lance around cause he’s somewhat unconscious. But the moment he comes to a bit, Lance goes hard on fighting for his life, cause he’s just in flight or fight mood. And it takes like five people to pin him down enough to give him a sedative.
Shiro, who is still teaching at the Garrison, and Keith is still attending. Pidge is undercover, but Shiro quickly picked her out for who he is...and decided to help her, because yeah there was a lot of weird mystery surrounding the the Keberos mission. Keith just kind of tags a long, sort of “keep everyone out of trouble”, and pidge is on his Team. Hunk is is roommate, who followed Keith when snuck out and stumbled upon the three of them when Lance crashed back down. And Shiro was all “You guys should go back to your room and follow lockdown protocols” until Pidge hacked the cameras and they saw it was Lance. Then Shiro was very much leading the charge.
The four rescue Lance, and take him somewhere hidden and safe. Then they all go to find Blue lion...and you know...
And I could see Lance really struggling with his prosthetic arm. Because it was so sudden and as much as Ultaz tried to actually not make super traumatic, the Druids didn’t give two hoots. And he also don’t know how it works, or how it’s so connected to his body. Also some of the “anatomy” doesn’t line up right like it should, so it’s straining and painful against his muscles. And it also scares him out of being a medic sometimes, cause while he can activate it on command, he isn’t completely confident in his ability to not do it accidently. His struggling with it can very much range from his just staring at his right hand...to threatening to cut off his own arm.
Shiro walked in once on Lance having an extreme reaction, and got him to calm down. And quickly became a shoulder Lance could lean on. It’s not the best, but they both when to mediation and mental assistance training when the Keberos Mission was a four man crew. Shiro knows the ways to help Lance calm down form most extreme emotions.
Sometimes Lance comes in to talk about stuff. Sometimes about what happened too, sometimes to find out about what happened while he was gone. Other times he’ll just go to Shiro and just kind of wedge himself against him without a word. And it’s not to long before it just becomes...the norm...no one raises an eyebrow.
