Thank You!
There are still a few pieces trickling in and I’ll definitely keep up with reblogging them over the next few weeks, but I wanted to take this moment to thank everyone who participated this year! It’s been wonderful to see all of the art and fanfiction that everyone came up with across this Spring Event and also for Kidgeweek.
Y'know Batman The Brave & The Bold is truly impressing me with how it's making me new fans of heroes I never heard of such as Blue Beetle, The Metal Men, Jonah Hex & even The Outsiders like this is one of the greatest strengths of this show that is expanding so much on the DC universe & in a campy but heartfelt passion of people loving the DC media as a whole
will there be a sping event for 2022??
That's something I'm still debating on. This year we had Kidgeweek and the Spring Event pretty much one after another and it felt like a little too much.
But there's also still a ways to go before then and anything could change. I'll have a better idea about whether or not there will be a second Kidge Spring Event by January next year and will make an announcement then.

April 30th FRI- Edelweiss/ courage, devotion
Keith is running as fast as he can. Fucking assholes. 10:1 odds. He was handling it but they just kept coming and getting back up. Eventually he’d get tired. So his hope is that he can lose a few on the run and then make his stand again. As he ran he slowed and looked back occasionally, maybe a mile then it should be more even.
He knew there was a pasture and barn that would hide them from the road. He’d fight there. He just needed to keep them on the hook. Ugh, he really hated having to slow down so they’d catch up. Finally the reached the barn…as the guys ran past the barn the turned right into a grinning Keith.
“Let’s go!”
Keith swung his fist making contact with the first guys chin. He was holding his own and enjoying the fight when someone pulled a knife, which was when Keith pulled out his. Unfortunately someone else had a weapon and Keith was back on the defense. But with better odds he figures he cans till win.
Suddenly he hears a voice comment, “You cowards, let’s make this a little more fair.”
Then a tiny whirlwind jumps from the hayloft landing conveniently on one of his attackers. Then a little dog starts yipping and chasing another boy. In the resulting chaos, Keith was able to finally get the upper hand and his opponents decided to run.
Out of breath and sweaty he turned to the tiny fellow…only to realize it was a girl! He had started out saying hi but ended in a cough. The girl however paid him no mind.
“Hi, looks like you can really fight. Thank goodness, I had no idea how we were going to help you.” Kneeling down she rubbed her dog, “Who’s a good boy? Who’s a good boy? You are Bae Bae.” She gave him cuddles and rubs. Looking up she brazenly reached over and grabbed his hand pulling it. “This is Bae Bae. Don’t ask, my brother named him. And you are?”
Keith blinked, “Oh, um Keith, Kogane. I had a plan-“
“Not a good one but then again me neither. No worries it worked out.”
Hearing a door slam, Keith looked up at the barn to see the loft door slam into the wall. Seeing some white flower he muttered, “That’s new.”
The girl looked up nodding, “Yeah I decided a red barn was just to ordinary. So I decided to paint an edelweiss. I know everyone thinks it is Austrian or Switzerland but Italy also has it and being found in the mountains, it symbolizes courage and devotion. I mean, if a guy is going to climb a mountain to give you a flower…well you must be special right?”
Keith blinked. Whoa, she looked super cue all lecturey…shit she’s staring at me. “Um, yeah special.”
She grinned and stood, “Okay, well later dude.”
Three years later, Keith’s in the park throwing a frisbee to his dog, Cosmo. When suddenly his buddy takes a flying leap and knocks down a girl. SHIT!
Running over, he’s ready to apologize. He offers his hand and pulls the girl up only to stare into a pair of hazel eyes that seem very familiar. Green with an outer black rim and a warm copper center. A laugh that made his gut clench. And a laugh that made is dog wag his tale and try to crawl into her lap.
“So we meet again! Small world.”
Keith nods, “Yeah so this time no escaping without giving me YOUR name.”
1 year Later
Keith is beyond nervous. He and Katie have not been dating too long but he knows, in his gut that this is it for him. He loves her intelligence, her sarcasm, hell he doesn’t even mind that his dog likes her more than him. He takes a deep breath, the door opens. He places a single edelweiss flower in her hand.
“It’s edelweiss…you know what that means. And maybe I didn’t climb a mountain but these suckers are hard to find!”
Katie looks at the flower, sniffing delicately. “Yeah, I know.” Then she grabs his shirt and kisses him soundly. Devotion.
May 1 SAT- Daffodil new beginnings
Sorry for being so late...hope you enjoy!!! By the way, this is after Pidge’s perspective on 4/29
Keith slams his hand on the control panel. NO! This is not acceptable. He closes his eyes and focuses on the pulsing of his hand. Raising it, he can see his hand is shaking. His heart is racing causing a thundering in his ears. He almost feels like he needs to throw up. Shit! He takes a few deep breaths and tries with all his might to calm down. He needs to be in peak physical and mental condition. To save her.
Calmer her thinks, what does he know. She’s alone in a forest, miles away. Fact. He’s not leaving her. Fact. She tried to leave and got word to him but was intercepted. Fact. He cannot leave her. Fact. She has limited supplies and no weapons…that he knows of. NotFact. Leaving her is not even on the table. Fact. He sighs. What the hell was she thinking? Did she really think he’d leave this planet with her still on it? Never. He…couldn’t. FACT.
Honestly, he had such a different idea of this trip. Stupid. When did things ever go as he planned? Oh, sure they’d get to reknow each other and get closer. Maybe explore the feelings that had been growing on his end, open up. See if she could feel the same.
Then they got sidetracked from a distress call and landed on this fucking planet who requested help. Lies. Treachery. Bastards. Depending on the point of view, Pidge overheard something on accident or through different means. Plans to overthrow the hard won peace. Plans to take action now that Voltron was long gone. Which she took issue with. And in typical fashion, she did something about it. But then she got stuck between the town and the ship. In the middle of a damn forest.
Keith closed his eyes for just a moment. Smiling, he absently thought, she must be pissed that she has to hide in the forest. One more deep breath then he got moving…fast. First he called Shiro relayed all his information and put in a request for his people to be picked up by a contingency working in a nearby planet all while gathering the weapons he could. Damn he wished Kosmo was here. Shiro understood that time was of the essence and luckily was smarter than Pidge because he didn’t waste time telling him to leave. As plans were made he finally turned to the small crew that was watching with growing concern.
“They are coming to save you. The engines were sabotaged so you need to hide until you get the signal. I’m going after”
“Let me help.”
“I can go with.”
“Don’t leave us here, please we can help Pidge too!”
Keith smiled, “Now, I think you can help from here for us. Here’s the plan.”
Keith was running through the forest. Plan in place, he just needed to see his girl. No one was going to hurt her. They will pay for ruining his opportunity. Or rather delaying it. He slowed, he could see smoke and their camp. He cut through it like a ghost. Within the hour, the fire would be out and wiping the sweat off his brow, he knew he was one step closer to his girl.
But he couldn’t rest yet. He needed to push, seeing the large tree, he knew he was not too far off. He slowed looking for signs of her. Yes! She carved in the tree her symbols that denote time and direction she was headed for. God bless her!
Keith was on the move again. He slowed, he could hear her yelling. Cursing. He smiled. That’s his girl. He moved silently, seeing they had her surrounded. He looked at his watch it was almost time. He moved around the perimeter and disabled the furthest soldiers.
Suddenly explosions could be heard as well as huge plumes of smoke. He pulled up his mask and lit some packets of leaves that gave off a sedative smoke.
He moved quickly taking advantage of their confusion. Finally he throws Pidge over his shoulder and heads away from the ship direction. He plans to eventually lure them to the designated spot but for now he needs to look like he doesn’t have a plan. So he runs and finallly finds a cave that he could get cover for them both because it looks like it’s going to rain.
“Look, before you start, I know what you said. But I never agreed.”
Pidge rubbed her head. “Keith, I…I…”
“No! If you got hurt…it’d hurt me. And not just ‘cause I’d jump in front of whatever was gonna hurt you. BUT I need to be WITH you to do that. Face it Pidge, you’re stuck with me. Now do you want me to tell you the plan. And hopefully make it better.” I arch a brow and stare at her. I refrain from hugging her because I’m sure she is pissed but honestly I’m just glad to see her without too many injuries.
I immmediately reach for her hand, they are cut and there is a lot of dried blood. He pulls her closer, and reaches into his bag for the medical kit. As he takes care of her, he feels an overwhelming urge to kiss her bumps, bruises and aches. He closes his eyes and questions, “What no smart ass remark?”
I see her looking down, “No, I just…thanks Keith.”
Keith gives her some water and peanut butter cookies. “I’m gonna take a look around and will map out a few escapes. Please rest up.”
Keith goes through the passages trying to see their options. Suddenly one cavern opens up into a…damn it’s a garden. Keith walks around water, soft ground, plus two exits. He grins, “This will do.”
He made his way back with one addition. He walked over to see Pidge leaning back against the wall. One leg bent one straight. Eyes closed, slight smudges of dirt on her face, arm. And she’s wearing his coat. He takes the daffodil he found and brushed the petals along her arm. Her eyes opened meeting his boldly.
He dropped down to one knee. “I found a place we can hide out in for a bit until things get busy.”
“What’s that?”
“A sign, of what I wanted this trip to be. My original plan went to shit. So I’m doing this my way. I…love…you. I wanted this trip to signal a change in our relationship. I found a garden in the one of the cave tunnels. But, I saw this daffodil and remembered that it signals new beginnings and um…” Shit I forgot! Oh man. My hand tightens around hers.
Pidge looks up at him, tears in her eyes, “I want that too! I wanted to come to see if-“
Keith leans forward and kisses her. Hard. “Let’s do this. Katie.”
April 29th THU- Fern and oak, shelter & strength
“STOP!” She kicked the hugh oak she she was standing under. Lowering her voice, she started over calmer, “Keith, you’re risking the lives of millions for just one life.”
“Damn right! ‘Cause it isn’t just one life!!! Goddammit, it’s yours!”
“But Keith, you have to.” Sighing, “this didn’t turn out the way we planned but the mission has to come first. That’s what the Blades-
“No! That’s an unacceptable option. I refuse. I won’t leave. Look, I’ll get a message off this damn planet, I’ll make sure that others are safe. But I’m not leaving you. You can’t ask that of me.”
Pidge sighs, “Keith, think of Cosmo, Shiro, hell your mom! You are on a ship. GO. Get the fuck off this forsaken planet and tell the others. I’ll figure out a way to mess things up here and buy you time. Time, I’m good at making delays…please Keith, I got this. Go-tell the others, this is what needs to happen. We both know it.”
Pidge opens her mouth, wanting to blurt out the words she held in for so long. The words she agonized over, turned over with the hope she’d have an opportunity to say them while on this trip…well looks like they were going to have to remain unsaid. For his sake. She wouldn’t hurt him that way. She whisphered “Good bye” and unplugged the radio. Feeling her knees give out she hunkered down against the oak tree in the middle of the damn forest she was in, thinking fuck this went sideways. She closed her eyes and just let herself cry.
Sorry I was feeling angsty!!!

April 27th TUE- Forget me Not-True Love, Memories, Remembrance
It was already the fifth anniversary of the end of the war yet the memories remain so vivid. As the remaining Paladins and Coran sit around the table and share their memories, hopes and fears from that time it really struck Keith how much they have all grown. Thinking back, Keith recognized that he tended to act in his own interests and had a hard time communicating effectively. Honestly, looking back he is shocked that they were able to pull out the win.
It was a lot of blind faith and luck that they got through it as they did. Even with their losses. Dinner had transitioned into drinks and desserts and Keith could feel himself relaxing even more. Laughing about the time Lance and he tried to swim for the first time in the pool on the castle. Teasing Shiro about how he always picked a character as close to himself as possible. Complainign about how awful food goo was! Just so many memories. Keith’s mind drifted as the conversation flowed around him.
Inevitably his thoughts returned to Katie. He doesn’t know when that distinction came about but over the last 5 years, in his head at least, when he thinks about her it’s Katie versus Pidge. He tries not to say it aloud though because the last time it slipped out he got a ton of teasing from Lance about calling her by name. Stupid idiot.
Somehow seats were moved, videos were shared and Keith found himself next to Katie. He noticed her shiver and he shrugged out of his coat and placed it around her shoulders. When he pulled his hand back his fingers brushed across her neck, he just couldn’t help it. He found himself needed to touch her and it was getting downright addictive. Each visit, he’d find a reason to brush her skin, feel her heat. Damn, he was getting wound up. He could feel his heart racing and wanting …more. He needed a sign, what should he do? Risk it all and put it out there?

April 28th WED- Rose or carnation, free day
Pidge is standing awkwardly inside the bar trying not to text her brother the code to come save her. He knows where she’s at and has already planned to ‘bump’ into her and see if he needs to be ‘over protective’ or ‘cool” brother. Looking at the dude, he might have to be overprotective today, as usual.
She arranged to meet Mark at a bar/grill. They had a class together and he had been asking her out for the whole semester. So she finally said she’d go out with him. So she was standing in the foyer of the building and he was late. What the fuck? Don’t ask a girl out and then arrive late. What a jerk.
Tapping a foot she sighed and as another cold breeze hit her she decided to walk into the bar and get out of the way of people walking in and out. Walking in she talks in the area, there’s a stage up front, bar to the left, tables and high tops off to the right. It seemed okay. She squinted and thought she saw games in a room off the main area. Pool, darts and whoa!!!! Is that ax throwing?!?
Grinning she shoots her brother a quick text and heads back to the game room. Mark could find her. Walking in she sees a lot of fellow classmates and waves. She ate before hand but looking at the appetizers and food on the tables it looked like she will be eating again. Suddenly she feels an arm land around her shoulders. Freezing she clenches a fist ready to attack when a voice causes her to relax. Lance. McClain. Harmless flirt and classmate of her cohort.
“Pidgey!!! What are you doing here?? And might I add, looking smokin!”

April 26th MON- Ivy/friendship, fidelity, marriage
Better late than never! Hope you enjoy!
She’s late. Again.
She also forgot to pick up the coffee creamer. Damn. Pulling into the drive she hears yelling from inside their small house. Lots of yelling. Oh no! Rushing in she sees… chaos. Frantically she calls out, “Keith!! KEITH! Where are you? What’s going on?”
Keith runs out-“Babe! Uh, I can explain!”
As Pidge makes her way towards the kitchen, she slowly processes the chaos. It looks worse than that one time she thought she could make rocket fuel at home. She sees Drew with a KNIFE?!? “Drew! Put the knife down. You don’t just walk around with a knife!”
“But mom! I got a important job! I’m the so chef!”
“Hon, its sous chef and Keith?!”
Keith sighs, “Just trust me. Close your eyes.” Then raising his voice he calls out, “Kids! It’s time.”
Pidge looks at him, frowning. Closing her eyes she feels little hands grab hers and pull her outside to the yard all the while shouting directions.
“Step!”
“Don’t hit the-oops, mommy you hit the chair.”
With a sharp intake of breath, she absorbs the pain in her thigh from hitting what must be a chair. Then she hears the scrape of a chair and Drew says, “Mom, sit back, carefully.”
With that, Abbey counts, “1-2-3‘’
Then all four yells. “Appy Annerverisary MOMMY!” “Happy Annivesary!” “Happy Anniversary Katie!”
Pidge opens her eyes to see a her favorite meal of chicken fettuccine alfredo on the fancy plates along with wine, French bread and candles set out. They even put water in a fancy bottle with pulled out the cloth napkins! And for some reason there was a rocket with a big heart painted on the side along the back wall of ivy. She blinks. Well. Smiling she can feel her eyes watering.
Looking up at Keith, she arches a brow, “I thought we were going out to dinner Saturday for our anniversary?”
Keith looks adorably flustered. The kids are bouncing around and so slightly red faced he replies, “Yeah, we are. But the kids wanted to be part of the celebration so I thought this was a good way for us all to celebrate.” Bending down he kisses her and whispers, “Happy Anniversary my love.”

Sorry for being super late everyone! I had a lot of tests at the end of last week so I couldn’t write as much as I liked, but it is finally done! this chapter is for the prompt of April 29, oak and fern.
the summary is Katie used to be a crime lord but now is trying to have a quiet life with Keith, the last thing she did as a scary crime lord was to make sure the city knew not to mess with her boyfriend, but it seems like James Griffith never got the memo
thanks to @kidgespringevent and @calligraphist-artemisia for this amazing event and sorry for being so late
April 25th SUN- Gardenia/Secret Love - Short and late!
Keith was waiting in the garden pacing. She should have been her by now. What if she changed her mind. What if she listened to the rumors. Or hell, even the truth. That was enough to scare any sane girl away. Sighing, he looked at his watch again. He leaned against the garden wall. What did he expect?
Sighing he slid down until he was sitting on the ground. He closed his eyes and tried to center by breathing. Tried to pretend his heart wasn’t broken. “Fuck.”
Suddenly he heard movement, lifting his head up, he saw her face framed by the moonlight. Jumping up, he breathed, “Katie?”
She turned towards his voice, “Keith?”
Both moved simultaneously and he wrapped her in his arms. “Katie, thank goodness.” They stood wrapped in each other’s arms just soaking in each other’s scent and warmth. Home. Keith didn’t know why she chose him, but damned if he’d give her up.
Mine.
