hello and welcome to fic rec friday! where, on friday, i rec five of my favourite fics.
All things infinite by MemeKonYA
“I didn’t know Lance was...”
“Bi?” Hunk supplied.
“Ready to jump anyone sentient and willing?” Pidge offered.
“Yeah, let’s go with bi,” Hunk says.
(Or: the one where Lance is a Bisexual Intergalactic Flirt, and Keith discovers he has feelings about this.)
keith is just constantly talking about how smart his bf is literally to everyone who will listen.....i get him on the most personal of levels. truly. also whore lance my beloved
2. all my love for the the sweetness of his laughter // he is the tear that hangs in my soul forever by KaterinaRiley [CONTENT WARNING]
The story of how Lance survived, then didn't survive, then survived again, living life knowing that his soulmate belonged to someone else. That Keith belonged to someone else.
Or so he thought.
--
“That rivalry was just so you wouldn’t forget me, but—” Lance broke off, looking away, the numbness creeping back into him, choking the anger out in seconds. “But you did anyway. You decided I wasn’t worth your time, and I got that message loud and clear.”
this one is DEFINITELY a little heavy, and i think it was imported from wattpad?? but like omega shield fics are so RARE man and lance has so much baggage.....it needs to be discussed fr
3. It's Just How It Is by @movetowardfocus-blog
They’re supposed to bicker, and Keith is supposed to be better at everything and Lance is supposed to pretend to have a chance against talent like that. They’re supposed to get mad at each other and storm away, just like old times. Instead, Keith is looking at him softer than he ever has.
there is no one in the ENTIRETY OF VOLTRON that is as kind as keith idc. and the level of perfection they are for each other post s6.....its insane and this fic gives them that
4. won't treat you oh so typical by @adverbialstarlight
Lance’s hands dropped to cover his face and he sighed again. “They didn’t give a shit about what I did. I was just the stupid little kid who can’t do anything because all my damn siblings have done it before.
“And I kind of just—” he snorted, “I dunno. I thought maybe I wouldn’t have to end up as the dumb one out here anymore. That you guys wouldn't just treat me like some idiot who can’t do shit but has to do everything perfectly anyway. And you don’t, really, but I’m still the most useless paladin. I can’t hack the ships, I can’t fix all its mechanical stuff, I can’t control a teleduv, I’m not a badass emo ninja with two cool swords and amazing piloting skills, I’m just… me.”
yes lance IS smart. and keith cares so so so much. also this isn't part of the description but i need you all to know about this line: "Confused, he nodded and turned to survey the few items in the room. He had no idea why Keith was helping him out, why he even cared or didn't just do it himself—Lane concluded it was Black Paladin Encouragement and Support For His Teammate, no more no less." bc oblivious lance my BELOVED hes such a dweebus 😭😭
5. All's Fair in Love and War by @litalana
“I can’t do this,” Lance decides one night. “I’m going to get rid of all my shirts.”
“You say that like it’s a threat,” Keith responds, imagining how the implication of Lance always walking around shirtless could possibly be bad.
- - -
Keith keeps stealing Lance's shirts. Lance can not deal.
