One-shots (Canon-verse)

Every stumble and each misfire by wolfsan11/ @wolfsan11 (T) 3.8k

There’s two months left before the Kerberos Mission is set to launch; Shiro isn’t doing so well with all the pressure setting in. Keith tries to help, but there’s far more going on beneath the surface of what he sees.

So much emotion, it made me so sad to see how tragic they are. But definitely don’t regret reading it.

you are the air my flowers breathe by janie_tangerine/ @janiedean (T) 8.7k

where the paladins are roped into making flower crowns by the circumstances. It doesn’t go like any of them had planned, not that any of them had planned to make flower crowns in the first place.

This is just too cute, even though there was angst, but it really fit, and I loved the team interactions in this too.

Weak by inkfishie/ @inkfishie (E) 8.8k

It’s a testament to just how gone Shiro is on Keith when he finds he has not one shit left to give. Responsibilities be damned, Shiro is exactly where he wants to be.

Fic for @theprojectava on Tumblr.

Nice pre-kerberos stuff, and I’m always super glad for Pining Shiro.

til the stars didn’t recognize me by epiproctan/ @epiproctan (E) 12.1k 

They had only had two nights together. The universe was determined to keep them apart.

Or, a space pirate captain meets a long-mourning Paladin of Voltron.

Ohoho, future fic with space pirate!keith and emotions, mmmm.

the lesser days by Glossolalia/ @fenri (T) 2.8k

During Shiro’s imprisonment, Keith writes letters to cope with the grieving process of not only losing a friend but acknowledging love postmortem.

This was not ok. It made me so damn sad, how dare you. Really poignant and emotional.

Not being funny, but if Lance were serious with his affections toward Allura (and I mean in love serious), would he really be saying,‘I’m not ready to settle down’ and ‘There are a lot of fish in the sea’? 

One thing we know from the comics, is that Lance is serious about love. He wants to be in love, and he wants to be equally loved in return. Allura has never shown signs of romantic recuperation. She has never returned Lance’s flirtations, nor responded with anything less than disgruntlement and mild irritation from his advances. 

I find Lance’s words ‘I’m not ready to settle down’, very interesting. To me, it tells me that Lance doesn’t feel emotionally ready to commit to a long-term relationship with a loved one, because he hasn’t found someone he feels he is in love with. If Allura were the woman that Lance had totally, and completely, devoted his heart to, then I would be certain in saying that he wouldn’t even look at anyone else. 

Lance is serious about love, real love. We know that he has a deep understanding of it. He knows and values the commitment behind love, and from the show, comics and vlog, we have seen him only ever playing the field, meaning he has never truly fallen for any of the girls he was flirted with, including Allura. 

When Lance does fall in love (and we know he does have a end-game romance from interviews), he will mature and feel emotionally ready to settle down with that person. 

What have we heard from Lance’s mouth? ‘Sometimes what we want, isn’t what we get’. 

What have we heard from Lauren? ‘He (Lance) might look for it, but what he might look for is not necessarily what he needs. I think he needs someone who’s self-assured…so that he can kind of become that same person and know himself.’

In other words, Lance needs someone; 

“Self-assured.” - Lauren

Who can help him step up and mature as a person. “Keith goes, ‘No, dude. You are super important to the team. You should stop thinking all that because we need you.’” - Jeremy Shada.

Who has been there all along, “Yeah, the show’s going for a slow-burn.” - Jeremy Shada.

Someone who will treat him as his equal, listen and respect him. “I respect it’s (the Black Lion) decision, and you should to.” - Lance to Keith, S3E2.

“Someone very different from what he was going for in the beginning.” - Dreamworks.

Hmmmmm.

WONDER-

Although it may be set in the wild west, this isn’t a story about rescuing a damsel in distress and saving the day. It’s not even a simple case of the hero defeating the outlaw.

No.

This is a story about murder, betrayal, defying expectations, and overcoming a fate built on a single lie while negotiating what it means to be good, truly good, and learning to trust again.

Hey! I’m on mobile so I’m gonna attempt this link. If all else fails, I’ve linked my ao3 in a bunch of places all over my blog on both mobile and desktop haha.
