There's a great fic I'm in the middle of reading called Horror Vacui by SolCaeruleus on AO3! It's about Alastor losing the arm and coming to terms with the loss and aftermath! I def recommend it!
And orders are live for the final opportunity to purchase my fanfiction works as hardcopy paperbacks! 🥳 I actually added a few more titles than originally planned, but this is my last chance too to also own these works in this format and they're all so dear to me and with the way the world is, sometimes a physical copy is just the safest thing. Plus, I actually have a vacation (!!!) planned for next year and I need some reading material for the poolside!
Thank you to all who have supported my works either reading and commenting on them, subscribing to my Patreon or purchasing from my previous book orders (or a combination thereof!). It truly means a lot and I'm glad to have had the chance to do one final print run for those of us still hanging around ♥ If you have any questions, please comment, DM or email me! Please note though that all orders must be emailed!
I will update the above graphic with covers once designed/available, for now their title serves as the placeholder ☺️ (gonna be doing layout for the next few weeks!)

A Collection of Langst (alphabetical)
Patreon: Cannon Fodder
Lance is captured by the Galra and not only is his fate to be massacred in the Arena without even a chance to even defend himself, he has to be outfitted so his death will count for the right Galran commander’s points. And the Galran’s way to identify their cannon fodder? Branding.
Patreon: Feel My Pain
“Your friends are going to watch you hang here,” the alien kicked the stool Lance was precariously balanced on, “until you can’t anymore. And then,” his grin was sharp and cruel, “they’ll watch you die. Helpless to do anything. Helpless to save you. And they’ll get to experience a sliver of the pain I’m in knowing that my brother is gone,” his voice cracked, “and I’ll never see him again. This is all I want and all you can offer, Paladin. No apologies. No reparations. Just your pain and theirs.”
Patreon: Fog
The locals had said the fog was dangerous. They said only those fire-touched and carrying the sacred flame could traverse it. They said that Keith and Lance could do so to rescue the child lost in its cold haze, slowly being killed with only his worst fears for company.
But they hadn’t told them about the conditions. That the fog would only let the number who had traversed inwards with the flame out. And so a total of three went in.
Only two returned.
And for someone like Lance, whose worst fear is being alone and abandoned… it’s not going to end well.
Patreon: For the Love of Family
They said they didn’t want to hurt him. And Lance knew they didn’t, not really. They were doing this out of love, out of hope-fueled despair. But at the end of the day they wanted to use their magic to replace Lance’s mind and change his body to make him become their beloved, deceased younger brother and restore their family while ripping Lance away from his own.
And with a desperate plan like that… everyone involved is going to get hurt.
AO3: Just a Little Longer
Just a little longer is the mantra Lance keeps telling himself as his flu symptoms grow worse while Voltron is negotiating an alliance. Just get through the talks. Through dinner. And now through dancing. Except that last one is too much and Shiro has noticed something is wrong and now everything is about to be ruined.
AO3: The Poison of Deceit
This diplomatic mission is not going the way Lance had hoped. The diplomacy part on behalf of Voltron is going fantastic and Lance doesn’t think he’d be remiss in saying he had a large hand in that. But the whole impress Shiro bit is an epic fail as Shiro doesn’t seem to notice his efforts at all and it’s only worse with Keith showing him up at nearly every turn. The aliens they’re working on the alliance though have noticed his efforts. But as Lance stands here now, Shiro and Keith’s lives along with a vial of poison in his hands, he isn’t so certain that was a good thing.
Patreon: The Power of a Hug
A retelling of the fight in “The Depths” where Hunk is stronger, faster, more ruthless and will do anything to keep his queen safe and warm, even if that means hurting his best friend. And where Lance knows if Hunk discovers how badly he hurt him he will never, ever, forgive himself. So there’s only one thing to do: hide his injuries and hope that no one, especially Hunk, ever finds out.
Patreon: Rivers Stain the Ocean
When Lance messes with Pidge’s color coding system the only thing to do is retaliate in kind.
So she dyes him completely blue.
It’s harmless though, will wear off in a few days, and the experience will teach Lance to never touch her stuff again. A win-win if Pidge does say so herself.
Except for the part where the planet they visit the following day to form an alliance has this whole thing about a prophecy and being cursed and deceived by a being of blue. And in order to save both their planet and Voltron...
They’re going to kill Lance.
AO3: Training Program
Lance knows his close quarters combat isn’t the best, so when Shiro tells Lance he’s going to train him he should be relieved because maybe now he can actually protect his team. Except the training seems to be more of a beatdown punctuated by both fists and cruel words and now Lance has to hide the results of such before he makes tensions in Voltron even worse. But that’s harder than planned on as Keith is both very observant and very, very concerned.
“Do you think the Galra Empire will care that you’re tired?” Shiro interrupted him. “Do you think they’ll go easy on you because you’ve been fighting all day?”
“No, but—”
“There are no buts, Lance,” Shiro cut him off. “Either you want to be a Paladin your team can count on or you don’t.”
Patreon: The Warmth of a Scar
Lichtenberg scars, Hunk explained softly. That was the term they used on Earth to describe the dark lines seared into Lance’s skin from the lightning strike, the strike that had also taken his right eye. Those scars represented pain and loss and despair. But to Allura… they were beautiful. They felt safe. And she hoped she could help Lance to see the same.
A Short(er) Story Collection: Volume Four (alphabetical)
3-4 more stories to come!
Absent
Coma: a state of deep unconsciousness that lasts for a prolonged or indefinite period, caused especially by severe injury or illness.
Absent: not present in a place, at an occasion, or as part of something.
Replacement: a person or thing that takes the place of another.
And as Lance is finding after waking up from his coma, eight months is a long, long time. Everything has changed. Everyone has changed. And while no one will come right out and say it, he knows. They’ve moved on. They’ve replaced him. Blue has replaced him. And he will never, ever, recover what he’s lost while he's been absent.
Sword and Shield
The Blade mission is dangerous but Keith is confident that between himself and Lance, who along with the Red Lion is integral to the success of it, they’ll be fine. However, as the mission progresses Keith is finding it harder and harder to ignore the fact that Lance keeps making himself a human shield and sacrificing his own safety for Keith’s and it's reminding him far too much of his own decision on Naxzela and what he almost did to keep the others safe.
But now that horrific pattern of self-sacrifice has come to a head as Lance is injured protecting Keith. And it's not just a terrible wound: Lance is poisoned and slowly, painfully dying before Keith's eyes. Unlike Naxzela where he could at least do something (even if it would have cost him everything) there's nothing he can do to save Lance. Nothing except hope for a miracle.
Through Fire and Smoke
They’re trapped. They’re trapped and the room is filling up with fire and smoke and there’s no way out and both Pidge and Lance are down and if Keith doesn’t figure something out they are all going to die.
The Burning Bright Series
A look at how one person, one meeting and one dream can change a life forever.
AKA
The backstory of how Keith and Shiro met and forever changed each other.
AKA
Icy's headcanon for their relationship and what she will reference in all of her fics as she likes her version a thousand times more than what canon provided.
The Orange Grind Series
Coffee Shop AU series where Coran is the owner of The Orange Grind and Keith is the runaway foster kid he finds picking through food in his dumpster.
The Bridge Between Our Worlds*
[Alternate Universe - Canon Divergent] Keith is a weak, human halfbreed. Mom tells him he’s not, that being half-human is a strength, not a weakness, but Keith isn’t blind nor deaf to the whispers and disgust that follow him around the Blade of Marmora base from his fellow Galrans because of his heritage. Despite what they say and believe Keith is determined to prove himself and become a Blade. Although no matter how hard he trains, how hard he tries, how far he comes… it's clear that he'll never belong.
But when he begins to dream of fire and glowing yellow eyes and something is calling out to him…
Maybe somewhere out there in the vast universe there is a place where he belongs.
*I love this story too much and pulled it from the Shorter Story Collection vote and put it on its own ☺️
My Favorite Toy Series
Lotor has a way with words. They are honey dipped poison dripping with charm and he's got Allura and Shiro easily under his spell.
Not Lance though.
Lance doesn't trust the Galran prince one bit, and he's made his stance very clear. But rather than taking offense, Lotor has taken that distrust and turned it into a game in which Lance does not know the rules and Lotor holds all the cards.
And this game...
This game is far, far from over.
When Optimism Breaks
Keith is forced to make a call on a mission gone wrong that ends with Lance hurt and both of them captured by the Galra Empire. Keith has no doubt in his mind that he’s going to keep the attention on himself, especially when he finds out that the Black Paladin was the original target. Except what they want from Keith is not something he can do and Lance is forced to pay that price of refusal in blood. But it's a sacrifice he's willing to make to protect all those he loves and he makes sure Keith knows that. Except then they find out what the real cost to keep the universe, to keep the rest of their team safe is… and it’s not something either of them can afford.
The Purity of Sin
Lance's first diplomatic mission had gone wrong. Very, very wrong.
Instead of allies on planet Macka, he and Keith found only enemies who want to sacrifice them to their Goddess.
The two Paladins are going to have to work together to survive the harsh desert, severe injury and relentless pursuit with the added problem that in addition to losing copious amounts of blood Lance is losing his senses.
One...
By one...
By one...
The Sniper Series
Where the Galra Empire realizes the potential of the Blue Paladin and decide to mold him into their own assassin using whatever means necessary.
Contains the following stories:
Gone
It’s finally happened. After constantly feeling like the most useless member of Voltron, of being the seventh wheel with nothing of value to add to the team, Lance has been acknowledged for his sharpshooting talents. Just one small problem: it’s the Galra Empire that’s taken notice. They want to use his talents to turn him into an assassin and they’ll do anything they have to, use any measure necessary, to break him down and mold him into their own perfect soldier.
Found
Lance is alive. He’s been alive this whole time as not just a prisoner of the Galra Empire… but as their assassin. Shiro’s head aches with his own press of memories as to what Lance must have suffered, how he’d been tortured, to become a cold-blooded killer that goes against every value Lance held dear. But while there’s nothing they can do to change the past they have a way to change the future and now it’s time to find Lance and bring him home.
—
Sniper is confused. He shouldn’t know those people, he doesn’t know those people and yet… yet there’s a whisper of familiarity that makes his chest ache and his hand pause on the trigger. But Mistress’ whispers are even louder and his screams as she forces him to forget them and replace them with only the faces and feelings of enemies are the loudest of them all.
Here
Voltron has rescued Lance but the person with them now is not the same boy they once knew. Even outside the Galrans’ influence Lance believes himself to be Sniper, an assassin to the Galra Empire with his final mission to eliminate Voltron. It's going to be a long, difficult journey to prove to Lance that he's safe, that they're his family, and that the horrors he committed as Sniper are not his burden to bear. And that challenge is made even more so given the fact Lance's Druid handler is still alive and the Empire isn't going to let go of their trained assassin quite so easily...
Patreon Exclusive: Your Biggest Fan (click title to read chapter one for free!)
Loverboy Lance has gained quite the following and Lance has absolutely no complaints. He’s loving the fame, the fans and the chance to really shine in such a talented group as Voltron. This is his stage and he is ready to perform.
But fame has a dark side.
Lance has a fan that wants more than just an autograph and Lance doesn’t know the lengths this alien is willing to go. What’s more, he doesn’t know what he can do. The Coalition needs a successful show and he’s a part of that. He has to perform, he has to paste on a smile and pretend everything is all right. It’s for the universe. He can do this. After all, it’s just one fan. What’s the worst that could happen?
Patreon Exclusive: Bottled Ocean (click title to read chapter one for free!)*
Lance knew the moment he saw the one-armed Human man in pain, bleeding and tied up like bait in the ocean that the people on the nearby ship were the ones Mers like him were warned to stay far, far away from.
But even with such a warning there was no way of knowing how dangerous this particular ship, belonging to Night Elf Captain Lotor, could be.
And even had he known, Lance’s actions would have been the same. The man, Shiro, needed help. Shiro’s younger brother, a half blood Human / Night Elf and fellow abused slave needed rescued. And Lance could not, would not, turn away from those in need.
But all actions have consequences.
Lance is captured and now the fate that awaits him is as a test subject as Lotor seeks to unravel all of the legends, the mysteries and the magic of the Mers. His only hope is an escape alongside Shiro and Keith. But the clock is ticking as Lotor’s experiments and methods grow more cruel, more violent, and if they don’t escape soon… the only freedom any of them will find will be in death.
*depending on how formatting goes, this may end up being a hardcover. 250,000 words is a lot, but paperback is the plan!
Chapter 1: Game On of my CherriBang 2026 fic is up! Featuring fake-dating shenanigans and post-season 2 drama!
“I need for us to enter into a public relationship.”
Lucifer’s eyes flew almost comically wide, a fine dusting of gold covering his cheeks as he opened and closed his mouth. “Oh. You… wow. That… I did not see coming…” He rubbed a hand over the back of his neck, and his eyes darted down to where the floor met the wall. “Well, I read this completely wrong. Uh, look, Red, I don’t know whether to be flattered or disgusted, but I’m not interested in you like that. Or like anything, really. You’re basically like the dirt on the bottom of my shoe. If that dirt was rancid. Just a mega gross inconvenience.”
Alastor went from his eyebrows shooting up, blinking in surprise at the fact that Lucifer actually thought he wanted to date him, to his eyes narrowing in indignant rage. “Let me make this very clear,” he seethed in a low voice. “There is nothing I want less than to enter into a relationship with the likes of you. You are obnoxious, insufferable, and do not deserve the power you hold. You are a joke of a king, and I have never met anyone with such misplaced arrogance.”
“Right…” He arched an unimpressed brow as he crossed his arms. “Real convincing after you just asked me out. Is this supposed to make me like you? Because you have got to work on your methods.”
“I don’t want a real relationship!” he spat, beyond frustrated. “I just need you to make Vox jealous!”
Lucifer’s arms dropped to his sides, and he blinked at him in disbelief. “Vox…? The guy who kidnapped and tortured us? You want to date him? You have got some serious problems.”
We should totally (affectionaly) bully Husk more over the fact that he went through "I am leaving this place, nothing holds me here without my Master." And Angel went full "No 💗" and HE CAME BACK THE SAME DAY
Currently working on drafting up a list of fanfictions I'll be offering as hard copy options for folks that are interested :) Thanks to all who commented/e-mailed your thoughts! Not announcing the list yet, but I am going to make a Short(er) Story Collection IV so keep an eye out on a post for voting options!
I'm also going to put up one more option that wasn't in the original list of a few of my favorite Patreon fics -- discounts for former members for that one as well :) -- as I have so many good fics in there and sometimes it's a pain in the butt to have to wander to that site to read them xD
Which speaking of, if you ever do purchase any of my collections on Patreon, please don't be like the person who did so the other day and is now requesting a refund because they feel too many of the stories were published on AO3 (of which a few are, but everything is clearly marked and numbers on my Tumblr post reflect the actual exclusive content, not just things written for those events i.e. whumptober). It's kind of a shitty thing to do. Buying a collection on Patreon not only gives you the ability to read those stories, but to retain permanent access to them without a monthly fee (of which every single lovely person who was there for the creation of those stories paid). And choosing to buy it through the Apple/Android Stores instead of directly (patreon.com/icypanther) will give you a major upcharge (a la this person) so don't do that either!
Thanks for reading and I'll aim to have that updated list (with summaries in as condensed a fashion as possible) and How to Order information in the next day or so! For full disclosure, it will likely take me a few weeks to sort and arrange everything for publishing so I'd anticipate being able to mail books out likely early/mid October and orders will be open till likely early/mid-September if that factors into your decision.
I wanna remind y'all that were people that genuinely thought that THIS face of Husk was due to alcohol. Sam Haft had to come out and say it openly that Husk here is understanding he might be in love with Angel for it to stop. 💀
