New Fic: Flying Free (Seven Chapters)

Summary: Lance has a secret: he’s only half-human.

His other half is Avian, a reportedly violent, blood-thirsty winged species, and why he and his family have had to live their whole lives hiding their wings from both hunters and scientists who would kill them for trophies and experiment on them in the name of the greater good. But space is different than Earth. In space there are all sorts of aliens and technically speaking he supposes he’s one too. And, he’s thinking, that maybe… maybe he can trust Voltron with his family’s secret.

But before Lance can get the chance to tell them he’s kidnapped by a scientist. And as he finds himself strapped down to a table for dissection he realizes that maybe space isn’t quite so different after all.

Part 3- Final

As time passed these blue feathers seemed to appear more and more just lying around the castle.

Some seemed to have been dropped by accident but most looked to have been placed purposely, waiting to be found by the other members of the team.

Everyone took this as a sign that Lance was starting to take care of his wings again, that the fistfulls in the bathroom trash had to mean he was preparing to show off his wings to his friends.

As the days passed the team only grew more and more excited by the idea of seeing them. Keith especially wanted to know what his ‘rival’ was working with so he could challenge him to a race.

Hunk was great and all but his big wings were made more for long slow glides with the occasional burst of speed while Keith was constantly zipping around him.

The idea of dancing around the air together made his heart rate pick up, his hands get sweaty and his knees feel weak…

So maybe Keith had some repressed emotions he needed help figuring out.

The idea of actually talking to anyone about these was well nothing short of terrifying, but as he found himself distracted by every little thing Lance did from how he would grin excitedly whenever they found a new planet or would gently bump his shoulder against his when they were about to enter a battle… or how he would so gently run his fingers through his wings while he hummed old songs and the two would just spend hours sat together in a comfortable closeness that Keith never imagined he would have.

It all really came to head when the two were sent on a mission alone together and they ended up spending a night cuddled up close by a fire waiting for a storm to pass.

Lance even called it their makeup bonding moment.

Keith didn't sleep at all that night, he just watched Lance softly breathing taking the time to memorise every detail of his beautiful face…

Soon as they got back Keith went right to Shiro's door and kept banging on it until he opened up.

The door slid open to a half asleep Shiro looking down at Keith in confusion.

“Did i miss the alarm?” he asked followed by a yawn.

“No!” Keith looked down the hallway before shoving Shiro back into his room. “Somthings wrong, Lance.”

That certainly woke him up.

“What happened? Did he get hurt on your mission? Was he captured?!” Shiro was already mentally preparing a plan of action when he heard Keith let out a frustrated groan.

“He's too pretty and it's distracting me and i don't know why!” he tugged at his hair as he sat on the edge of the unmade bed, the blankets still on the floor from when Shiro bolted for the door.

He stared at his adopted little brother for a moment before bursting out laughing.

Keith glared blushing bright red “It's not funny! There's clearly something wrong with me!”

That just made Shiro laugh even harder.

“Shiro!”

“There's nothing wrong, you just have a crush on Lance.” He finally managed to get out between gasps for air.

This was the funniest thing that had happened since Hunk made mac and cheese that turned everyone purple for a week.

Keith stared at him like he had just told him the secret to the entire universe. “Oh...Oh.”

With the dawning realisiation of having his first crush hitting him Keith decided his brain was stupid and it needed to stop existing in a constant state of gay panic whenever he saw Lance.

“Fuck what do i do?” he asked hopelessly.

Shiro sat down next to him and placed a comforting hand on his shoulder “well with these kinds of things you can either confess or wait till it goes away.”

“How long would that take?”

“In your case I'd say never.” Shiro smirked at him as Keith flopped back onto the bed defeated “i don't think this is just a normal crush, i think it's the start of something special that began when you cradled him in your arms.”

“I… i was just impressed that he could shoot a guy while being super concussed.” Keith was quiet for a moment “fuck i practically shoved Pidge and you out of the way to hold him.”

“Yeah poor Pidge nearly had to go in a pod from that too.” Shiro sighed, it had been hard times recently, it was nice to be able to talk like normal people for once and not soldiers.

“You should talk to him, see if he feels the same way and then go from there.”

“He doesn't even trust us to see his wings, how could he ever want to be in a relationship with me?”

That one was admittedly trickier.

It wasn't like Shiro could just tell him that didn't mean anything, he may be wingless but Adam was not.

God just thinking of his fiance made his heart ache. He longed to hold him in his arms and have his beautiful green wings wrap around him letting him know he's home, that the wars over and he can finally be safe.

A person's wings were an extension of who they are, and without showing them Lance was essentially keeping a part of himself secret.

And that hurt.

“Give him time.” Shiro finally said after a few tense silent moments. “I'm sure he will come around eventually.”

Keith sighed “I hope you're right.”

It turned out that they wouldn't have to wait all that long.

Only a week after that interaction Lance came quietly into the kitchen while the rest of the team were sitting eating breakfast.

“I want to talk to you guys”

“Sure buddy whats up?” Hunk asked between serving pancakes.

“It's about my wings.”

That certainly got everyone's attention.

“I know you've all been curious about why i keep them hidden and well i think i owe it to all of you to tell you why.”

Lance pulled a handful of blue feathers out of his pocket and placed them on the table.

“My family have peacock wings but these aren't peacock feathers.”

Pidge picked one up and examined it in the light “these are fake.”

Lance nodded as he turned around and dropped his robe to the ground and stretched his wings out for all to see.

They had many theories about what could be wrong with his wings to make Lance hide them for so long.

They never expected it to be because he had two perfectly formed wings… that happened to be a dull brown.

“Those are female wings...oh” Hunk said what they were all thinking as a realisation filled the room.

And suddenly it all made sense.

All the secrecy and nervousness that seemed to slowly melt away as he realised he was around people he could trust and was safe to be himself around.

“Im trans.”

It was unsurprisingly Hunk that first tackled Lance to the ground in a hug, quickly followed by the rest of the team.

They all sat there for what seemed like hours just hugging and assuring Lance that everything was ok, that he was loved and accepted no matter what.

More than a few tears were shed by all involved, but eventually everyone parted ways, with Hunk going to the kitchen to prepare for a coming out party.

That just left Keith and Lance alone together.

“I think your wings are really beautiful… just like you”

Lance started as a blush creeped its way onto Keith's cheeks as a smile spread out on his own face.

“We have some time now, would you maybe want to go for a fly?”

And so the two spent the rest of the day exploring the peaceful planet together, racing, talking and come sunset perched atop the large trees they kissed.

If your favorite character is also really sad is it really self-projection?-a study by me
