It Hurts To Be Something, It’s Worse To Be Nothing, With You… by TheyShouldHaveBeenCanon

Summary
Keith snaps, “I mean with you! What's going on with you?”
I meet his eyes, not expecting his sudden outburst, “What do you mean?”
Keith huffs, “You know what I mean! I know you. I know you better than anyone! This isn't you!”
I can’t help but mutter a small “I don't know..”
“What are you doing? Staying on this farm? Cutting off contact? No piloting, GOD — why did you quit being a pilot?!” Keith yells, throughly frustrated now

Here is the Angsty Argumentative Fanfic As Klance Soulmates And Exes To lovers That I promised in my last Fic, except I'm kinda breaking my word cause the only thing fast-paced are the arguments themselves and that doesn't necessarily mean that the the arguments are short, more so that their quick whipped.

“You’re the reason I had him, okay?!”
I freeze.
“I thought that if I did a decent job raising him there was a chance he was gonna end up like you!!”
I turn around to face him my breath caught in my throat.
“And that thought got me excited because you are a wonderful person and I like being around you!!!” He yells, and the pure desperation in his voice hurts.

The People We Lie To (Including Ourselves) by frogsupportanarchy

Summary
Dying is not something Tim would recommend. Was this even considered dying?
Waking up in a popular novel but in the villains body? Who just happens to have the same name as him?
The worst part is that he's destined to get the shit kicked out of him by the main character Richard Wayne the heir to the northern dukedom.
Tldr: Tim wakes up in his favorite novel as the most forgettable villain.

Summary
“Kosmo, no! It’s bedtime. Keith, control your dog!”
“Shh, I’m sleeping,” Keith replied, wide-awake and staring straight at Lance.
“Keith!” Lance whined but Keith was no help. “What the Black Lion sees in you, I’ll never know.” Kosmo gave one last good yank to Lance’s sleeve, pulling his pajama shirt clean off. Lance instantly covered his now bare chest. “Kosmo, you dirty dog! It’s at least three dates before you get me shirtless.”
Even though Lance felt very exposed suddenly being half naked in front of Keith, he couldn’t bring himself to care. Not when Keith was laughing like that.
Lance leaned forward to push Kosmo off the bed, but froze when Keith’s laughter abruptly stopped. After a tick of silence, Keith sat up and asked carefully, “What’s that?”
Lance looked over his shoulder and saw Keith’s eyes pinned to his back. “Oh, that. That would be from the Omega Shield.”
OR
When Kosmo decides he wants to sleep with Lance, he teleports Keith along with him, forcing the boys to share a bed. Lance isn't sure where they stand, seeing as Keith's been distant ever since he returned from the Blades; but everything changes when nightmares ensue.

Summary
"So, do you have a name?"
'What?'
"You say you were human before, that means you must have a name for sure"
'Oh yeah! Lance!'
"Yeah, you are a lance I can see that just fine. What is your human name? Or is it that you don't have one?"The silence was a little too long for comfort.
'My human name is "Lance". I know it's funny, but you don't need to be an ass about it.'
"I agree, it isn't funny. I'd say it's poetic. Even prophetic almost."Keith could feel someone's gaze burning a hole in his face.

Summary
As heir to the kingdom, Lance always thought he knew exactly what life had in store for him. That is, until a dragon kidnaps him at the age of sixteen. Suddenly his life is a lot less parties, lessons, and castles, and a hell of a lot more barren mountains, grumpy dragons, and boredom. From heir to prize, in just one night.
So now he’s stuck living in a cave with an adolescent, grumpy dragon who doesn’t seem to want him there but still won’t let him go. Not to mention his annoying habit of defeating every suitor who tries to come rescue Lance.
As much as he hates to admit it, he’s probably going to be here for a while. So he might as well settle in and get to know this dragon named Keith.
