    Summary

    “Yeah, I know. I messed up. ‘Don’t blackmail the other paladins’ is what, rule three? But I still don’t know why he’s so freaked out. It’s– it’s never been this bad,” he murmurs, wringing his hands together.

    Lance has accepted that Keith is an all-around Bad Boy™. So when he finds a sketchbook in Keith’s room, he’s a little bit surprised.

    Summary

    “Hello, welcome to Burger King, can I take your order?”
    And that’s about when it all comes crashing down on him, and like a tidal wave of terrible, Lance realizes, on an emotional level, how truly awful his day was. For no good reason at all other than here’s a human voice – steeped in apathy perhaps, but not overtly antagonistic – and literally all he wants is a little human comfort… he starts sobbing in the Burger King drive-thru.

    Keith is a junior in high school just trying to get through working the midnight shift at Burger King when Lance staggers into his life. The course of true love is a freaking disaster.

    Summary

    “What are you doing?” he asks, voice and face impossibly passive, as Keith tries to pull the bat out of his grip. The man only tightens his hold and narrows his eyes, using his free hand to grab his wrist.

    “What am I doing?” he snaps, dropping the bat in favour of his wrist. The grip is like iron, and he swears he can already feel bruising from the tight hold. “This is my apartment! Get the fuck out!”

    “Your—“ The man looks absolutely flabbergasted and angry for all of three seconds before he looks around, eyes going wide. “Shit,” he hisses letting go of Keith’s wrist. Keith winces and pulls his wrist to his chest protectively, scowling at the intruder who’s still holding his bat.

    The man blinks and looks down at him before running towards the door.

    Summary

    It seemed unrealistic to think he’d ever meet someone to tick every box, someone who could love him enough, but not too much. A lifetime of abandonment, betrayal, and let-downs had left him distrusting down to his core. It was an impossible task to get past all of his many walls, but if anyone ever managed to… there was someone loyal there waiting, someone so desperate for companionship it hurt, someone who would give absolutely anything if the right person were to ask.

    And then Keith met Lance.

    “You getting close again, darling?”

    Summary

    “Do you play guitar?” Lance asks, holding up the pick.

    “Yeah,” Keith replies.

    “Are you good?”

    “Yeah.”

    “Are you just saying you’re good, or are you actually good?”

    “Actually good,” Keith says defensively. “And why do you care anyway?”

    Lance narrows his eyes at him. “I don’t know if I believe you.”

    “I’ll prove it,” Keith says before he can think.

    (High school marching band/Battle of the Bands AU. Keith is the new kid, Lance is trying to prove himself, Pidge is a musical prodigy, Hunk’s tired of stereotypes, Shiro and Allura are just trying to get people to stop calling them ‘Mom’ and ‘Dad’, and Bruce Springsteen is still the Boss. Don’t ask about the lions.)
