#shklatte

Though most of mine revolve around Loverboy Lance

Its a shklatte ship AU that me @wajjs​ and @jupitertriton​ came up with. I’ve written the fluffy things and Blob has written the angst bits xD Its a thing…

I dont have a consistent tag for it, but luckily I spent yesterday gathering all my fics in one place so like… Under the cut cause formatting’s a bitch.

Honestly, when all my event fics are done I might revisit it. It was a lot of fun to write and had a lot of potential. then again I need to go and add to Sugar Daddy and Means to Recover so… 

Matt and Keith:

there are approx. 2 art works for this and one conspiracy theory-esque post (i mean that in the best way tbh) about them

but think about it

shiro introduced them

they bond over conspiracy theories and what a dork shiro is

they also both love space

matt runs on the treadmill while keith does some combat practice

them snuggling together, looking up at the stars, and talking about what aliens could be looking back at them

reunion that shocks everyone, as mentioned in post above. 

“my life would have been a lot different if i hadn’t met you shiro”

because he introduced him to his boyfriend matt

if other shippers are allowed to reach then so am i dang it

Shiro x Matt x Keith:

i like to call them the Original Garrison Trio

all of them are gay for each other

shiro and matt probably got together first tbh leaving keith to Pine

shiro and matt were super into keith though, so a lot of their conversations were about how lovely and strong and pretty and amazing he was

eventually shiro and matt are just like “we wanna date u do you wanna date us”

keith says yes as awkwardly as they asked him

the three of them are super happy together and are grossly affectionate

ALSO ANGST-

no one likes keith

he’s put on a pedestal, never studies, aces the flight simulator

he also comes off as arrogant and rude

he’s really just Mr. Darcy it’s chill i love you keith

when the three of them start dating people accuse keith of trying to break them up or smth

matt and shiro are Ready to Fight and quickly dismantle these rumors by showering keith in love and affection publicly while keith blushes

ALSO FLUFF-

pushing beds together for sleep overs

stargazing

making plans for when matt and shiro get back from kerberos

too bad they never come back wHOOPS MORE ANGST

Matt x Lance x Shiro:

you’ve heard of shance, you’ve heard of latte, now get ready for: shlatte

basically add matt to a ship and it gets better

note: this also works with hunk, as will be demonstrated shortly

matt and shiro being A Thing pre-galra

then during Voltron Times Shiro and Lance have a little unrequited mutual pining going on there

then shiro disappears and matt appears

boom, matt and lance bond while they look for shiro and more mutual crushing

then matt and shiro Reunite TM and lance is upsetti

and there isn’t even spaghetti smh

lance draws back while matt and shiro are in their love bubble

but matt and shiro both quickly realize they both love lance too

so eventually, with a lot of convincing that yes lance, they are serious and yes lance, we’re both in love with you- why wouldn’t we be they all get together

matt and lance are super affectionate all the time and drag shiro into snuggle piles at every available moment

Matt x Hunk:

MECHANIC BOYS

bonding over being the Team Mechanics TM

they’re both so soft and sweet

matt will eat anything hunk cooks

matt eats a lot and hunk cooks a lot so it’s perf

Casual Affection TM

Soft but Strong Boys

‘you’re my whole world bro’

legit, this doesn’t even have to be romantic, i just love them both sm

SOFT!!! FACE!!! KISSES!!! 

matt steals hunks clothes and then denies that he did, despite drowning in hunks clothes

matt will 1000% try to be the big spoon when they cuddle

he succeeds

they are just the cuddliest boys and deserve so much happiness

now there are a few other combinations you could go with like, Matt x Hunk x Keith, Matt x Keith x Lance (klatte, a classic), Matt x Shunk, but I want to get to sort of the main event here:

SHUNKLATTE:

Shiro x Hunk x Keith x Lance x Matt (+ an e from the Latte ship name )

also known as pidge, screaming, YOU CAN’T DATE ALL MY FRIENDS MATT and Matt screaming back WATCH ME

they’re all soft and gay and affectionate towards each other

literally look at all the adorable dynamics above

you don’t have to choose between any of them because everyone is in love

The Ultimate Slowburn and Mutual Pining

biggest, cuddliest piles

they take turns having sleep overs with each other

when they inevitably lose track everyone just piles up in shiro’s room

Pidge is overall fine with this but will glare at matt on occasion

“it’s one thing for all my friends to date each other, it’s another for my brother to date all my friends” pidge probably

“you’re just jealous that i have four beautiful boyfriends and you have none” matt back at her, with varying reaction 

I love this AU with all my heart and soul, fight me. @wajjs @jupitertriton 💙💜💙

Shiro didn’t know what time it was. Shiro didn’t care what time it was. All he knew, all he cared about, was the fact that it was still very dark out, and he was awake. He hadn’t been awake before now, but now he was.

Why was he awake?

Well, if the resounding squeaks from down the hallway were anything to go by, he’d say it was because of one of his very lovely boyfriends decided to play. Said boyfriend either forgot to, or straight up didn’t, close the door to their bedroom, so Shiro was serenaded by loud little squeaks. Loud, little squeaks which just so happened to wake him up.

The bed shifted beside him as Matt groaned, burying his head in Shiro’s side. Shiro brought his human hand up, his prosthetic taken off for bed, and dragged it down his face. It obviously wasn’t Matt playing, he wasn’t a fox or raccoon, only playing with the squeaker toys when he was taunting Lance and/or Keith.

GUESS WHO”S ON A MOTHERFUCKING ROLL! 💙💜💙 For @wajjs and @jupitertriton and I’s Forest Guardians au :3

“Matt, are you sure about this? Coran did say that there was a chance it’d fail, and he didn’t know what would happen, since you’re human, not altean.” Shiro asked, brows knit in concern from where he stood next to Keith.

“Shiro, I’ll be fine, I want to do this.” Matt laughed.

“But what if-”

“He’s been hanging out around Hunk recently, I think the anxiety is rubbing off on him,” Lance teased from behind Matt, his arms looped around his waist as they swayed side to side.

Keith snorted, giving Lance a once over. “Funny, I figured you’d be a literal mess if that’s how it worked. Hunk is your best friend.”

Lance shrugged, not rising to the bait.

“Guys, please. I’ll be fine.”

Lance nuzzled into Matt’s neck, placing a small kiss there. “We know, babe.”

“We’ve just… gone through Altean rituals before,” Shiro whispered, not meeting anyone’s eyes.

Everyone froze, the silence in the room growing tense as past events were brought back. They had forgotten about it, or, more accurately, put it out of their mind. That month had been filled with so much pain, and anguish, that it was easier to just… forget. Now, though, as another ritual came up, involving someone they loved, it was harder to keep it in the backs of their minds.

Just a little something for an AU me, @wajjs and @jupitertriton came up with. This might explain the random fox and raccoons posts as well xD <3

Matt had bought the pet carrier as a joke. Waking up to Lance chewing on squeaker toys was cute and all, but they also enjoyed sleeping. The worst part is when Keith would disentangle himself from Matt and Shiro’s limbs, creating a hole in their dome of warmth, and go join him.

Squeaker toys were for dogs, not foxes and raccoons. Dogs.

So Matt had gone to Petsmart, bought a few new squeaker toys, because he loved his boyfriends, and a carrier case as well, one big enough to fit a large dog, or, in his case, a fox. Lord as his witness he never planned on ever using it. Lance wouldn’t let him, neither would Shiro, and Keith… Keith actually might, but that was besides the point.

When Matt had brought it home, Lance had gasped, dramatic as usual, and asked how he could be “so mean! I trusted you!” Keith had at least laughed, so win there. One out of three amused boyfriends.

Lance easily forgave him when he had showed him the new squeaker toys he had bought. The bag was snatched from him almost immediately, as Lance shed his clothes and transformed into a fox easily in front of his eyes. Keith pretended not to care, but after the first few squeaks, followed suit, transforming into his raccoon form, and snatched a toy from Lance, earning a playful hiss.

Shiro laughed, and Matt couldn’t help it when his lips pulled up into a fond smirk.

The carrier was forgotten in the corner of the room.

They should’ve known better.

Loooove you Jup 💙💜💙

Matt hummed as he walked down the hall with only a towel wrapped around his waist. Everyone else was out and about. Shiro had to work late, they had to pay the bills somehow. Meanwhile, Lance and Keith had taken the kits out to begin getting used to wandering the forest.

He was honestly surprised that Keith was even alright with them going out, considering how protective he was of them. A simple sneeze and he was freaking out; he had carried them all the way to Coran and demanded treatment. Then again, after all the death and pain that had happened, taking care of Sophie’s kits like they were his own was only understandable.

A small chirp resounded in his ear, and Matt brought his hand up to scratch Marx on his head. “Yeah, I know, buddy.”

He entered the bathroom, letting his towel fall as he walked over to the bath. He turned it on, and the room began to flood with steam.

Marx chittered happily as they waited, telling Matt all about his day. Despite being connected, Marx still went out often. It was only natural, after all, and he had many stories to tell. Matt laughed all the while.

When the bath was finally full, Matt stopped the water. He began to lean back up when he felt Marx pounce off his shoulder, practically diving into the bath. He jumped back, startled, as water splashed out of the tub and onto the floor.

“Marx!” His head poked out of the water, and he began to paddle around the tub. Matt could feel the amusement through their bond and he rolled his eyes. “Next time give me a warning. Now move to the front so I can get in.”

Matt stared down at the new pile of nuts on his desk. This had been going on over the course of the past week, and Matt had amassed quite a collection. He could easily tell apart the different types that lay there, his time with the Alteans and squirrels, or well… squirrel, singular, having made him well acquainted with them. The nut that stood out the most, was the vast amount of almonds, outnumbering the other nuts greatly.

It was Matt’s favorite, but not a fact that he told many people. It didn’t usually come up in casual conversation. In fact, only his boyfriends knew that, and a few animals, or one specific animal in question.

“Hey, Matt, Allura wanted me to ask you if-” Lance cut off as he looked to where Matt was currently staring. “Marx suuure has been busy,” he gave a low whistle.

“I just…” Matt gestured to the pile of nuts, holding his arms in the air, “Why? I don’t get it. Shouldn’t he be piling up for winter? Why is he giving them to me?” Matt looked over at Lance, honest to god distress in his eyes, “Oh god, is he dying? Is this him leaving me all that he has left? Lance, I don’t want him to die!”
