Summary
Perhaps, when Keith first found out he would be taking Shiro's place as the pilot of the Kerberos Mission, he should have known something would go wrong. They always did when good things happened.
Perhaps, when the people closest to Katie were the farthest from her they'd ever been, she should have guessed it wasn't quite as perfect as it seemed. She'd become quite adept at detecting flaws, anomalies, and all manner of bugs.
When Shiro broke the good news to Keith, it seemed as if things were finally looking up for the kid. And for a while, that was true. But he couldn't have known what would happen on that ill-fated mission. He couldn't have prepared the mission crew for it, or made some far-fetched attempt to shield them from it. The reality of it will haunt him, regardless.
Post-Landing explosion. Yeah right.
The universe sure loves its give and take.

Summary
Keith has never been so nervous--not while fighting the Galra, and certainly not while flying a massive metal lion--than he is to meet Lance's family. It's stupid, he thinks, being afraid of a room full of people his boyfriend adores, but he's better suited for fighting, which is why he's glad he's only staying two weeks.
Lance is wrong three times: he thought returning home would be easy, he thought Keith had the same plans as him, and he thought he was done with the war.
Or: when Allura dies, they don't get to say goodbye. Grief, Altean marks, and all that follows.
NOTE: This fic was originally posted under a different username. This is still the same author!

Summary
One of Keith’s least favorite things about being the leader of Voltron is the diplomacy. Fortunately for him Lance excels at it and it’s an easy decision to step aside and allow Lance to secure this alliance with a former long-time ally of the Alteans.
Except that these aliens aren’t actually interested in an alliance.
They’re instead looking for the perfect sacrifice to offer up to save themselves from the “great evil” that speaks and hears and sees all and they’re convinced that Lance is that person.
And now it’s up to Keith to save Lance not just from an impending, violent death, but a life where he’s cut off from all his senses as the aliens in their attempt to purify him eliminate them one by one by one.

The Seven Planets of the Soaris System by Anxiety_at_the_disco
Fandoms: Voltron: Legendary Defender
04 Sep 2025
Tags
Summary
Seven planets, each with their own “shtick” (as Lance likes to call it). Just spend a few days, adapt to the culture, and they can secure an alliance with the Soaris System.
OR
Keith thinks he doesn’t need a family. It takes a space road trip, lots of team shenanigans, and an annoyingly handsome rival to prove him otherwise.

ecstasy
1 . an overwhelming feeling of great happiness or joyful excitement.
see also: euphoria
-
Where Keith finds cigarettes at the space mall and the shadows from his past are shown.
-
Or, where the author founds herself in a hotel room with no WiFi so she decides to give all of her trauma, problems with drugs, and mental health issues to a character from a kids’ tv show.
-
I don’t recommend reading this if you are dealing with mental health issues and/or addictions.
-
Most of it is exposed in the tags but I still added specific trigger warnings in the notes at the beginning of each chapter so y’all can be safe. -

Summary
Lance sighs in frustration, scrolling through the sparse scraps of data compiled into his suit. There’s practically nothing about this stupid planet, other than -
“Location…Liminal Space? Where the heck is that supposed to be?”
Clicking on the highlighted letters, his stomach drops, because wherever that wormhole spit them out, it was far.
Really, really far.
During a mission meant to uncover leads on Shiro's sudden disappearance, a compromised wormhole throws Keith and Lance into a strange area of the universe known as Liminal Space. Lance is alive. Keith...
Well.
If Lance doesn't get help soon, Keith will be Very Much Not Alive.
No pressure though. Surely their team will find them eventually. Right?

Summary
“Some things don’t rot all at once — they dry, they quiet, they pretend to live a little longer.”
_____________________
“Two of the three missing persons have been found… brutally murdered and dismembered.”
The anchor’s voice was steady. Emotionless.
“The first victim, twenty-three-year-old Sara Moore, was discovered in Weatherbea Forest. Her head is still missing and has not yet been recovered—”Click.
Mrs. McClain changed the channel before the sentence could finish. Her hand trembled slightly. Her husband was already late. She didn’t need to hear more about heads missing in the woods.

Summary
”I just… I was thinking maybe we could… I don’t know, me and you… like… as friends, it doesn’t have to be a date…”
Lance stopped hearing after that, because he was sure enough he had gotten the point.
Keith Kogane wanted to take him to the Yule Ball. Maybe (preferably?) as a date.
Or: Keith and Lance made a bet on who would managed to get a date to the Yule Ball first, but Keith has other plans.

Summary
Why you shouldn't offer to buy ingredients for shoom pie.
OR
Set around season 1-2, most of time placement will become more obvious I guess.
Anyway- Keith goes on a solo grocery run for Hunk's shroom pie and wounds up hailed at a dingy little empire outpost and pulled up for lack of space ID. Frustration ensues and Keith finds himself within the bowels of the Galran central command getting a little too much attention for the man himself, Zarkon. -

Summary
Keith tries. He really does. But no matter how much time passes, no matter who he turns to, it’s always him.

High school AU where Keith pretends to like James Griffin to cover up his big gay crush on Lance. It does not go as planned.

Summary
Lance's attention was now frozen on her. Her face inches from his he couldn't see anything but the sheet of dark hair, pale shoulders, a glittering red dress, the thigh slit nearly at her hip.
Struggling to keep his jaw from hitting the floor he realized. This woman was human, an actual human woman. Thoughts spinning he watched her pull back.
That low cut top was far past distracting, her lithe figure zipped into a form fitting dress.
Lights flitting across them for a single second Lance could see her face. Pale, violet eyes were black lined, blinking over scarlet lips, a doll face caked in makeup.
The bowed lips curled. "What are you doing here?" Keith hissed through a grit smile.
"Holy quiznack," Lance couldn't breathe, something in him waging a war.
Keith all but snarled.
Lance flinched, watching Keith pull up the skirt to a thigh holster. Its contents were hidden in small tubes.
"What's that?"
Keith raised an eyebrow and pulled out a tube of lipstick.
"Wait, what are you-"
"Hold still."
Or Keith is on an undercover mission for the Blade. Lance finds himself very out of sorts about it all.

Summary
“You know, I really dig the emo aesthetic, it makes you dark, mysterious and sexy,” He purred. Maybe throwing “sexy” out on the first move was not his best idea, but he was getting really desperate at this point. The girl turned around and Lance used that opportunity to really soak in the beauty in front of him. She wore thick black combat boots that were likely drenched in beer, hopefully that hadn’t been too expensive. Much like the girl in the kitchen she had black ripped jeans with chains that hung off the belt loops, she wore black fingerless gloves that showed off her chipped black fingernail polish. She had a tight black t-shirt on showing that her chest did not go out very far, but was broader and stronger, her neck was also a bit thicker than most women he had seen at that party. Finally, he arrived at the face of the girl, she had a sharp jaw and intense black eyes, her hair came down slightly past her shoulders and was a deep black. Then she spoke.
“I know I have long hair and it’s a little dark in here, but I don’t think I look that girly,” the girl said awkwardly, in a voice that in fact did not belong to a girl.

Summary
Keith would never regret getting expelled and coming to live in his dad’s old shack.
He didn’t have to worry about food. He knew how to live off the land, how to hunt, how to ration old military supplies. He knew how to find water, how to filter it, how to survive. He had no money to his name, but he knew how to survive. He could explain all sorts of survival techniques and ways to be safe in the wild.
What he couldn’t explain was why he was currently breaking back in to the Garrison.
or: Keith breaks back into the Garrison to steal spare parts and ends up running into faces new, familiar, and very familiar.
