Where after everything is said and done; Allura lives, Lance takes time off to be with his family (not a farmer, just a break). Lance and Allura break up shortly after the war. They both realize they were two hurt people trying to find comfort in each other, but Allura was using Lance as a rebound and Lance realizes they both deserve better. It’s mutual and only a little awkward.
Keith is helping the Blade of Mamora make the transition into a relief group.
He’s taken on a leadership position (along side Kolvian and Krolia)
Acxa joined as well and together they convince Ezor and Zethrid to join.
Note: I wish more people added them in post canon fics. I think it’s so funny that they are now Keith’s squad. And I think there is a lot of fun that can be had with those relationships. Whether wholesome as Keith unknowingly expands his found family, or angst as the girls compare their new lives to their lives with Lotor, but that’s another post.
Anyway Voltron has their one year post war meeting. And Keith is telling everyone about the Blade work and how they are working with the rest of the Galra to figure things out.
Lance teases him about them asking Keith to lead and Keith turning it down. When Keith confirms, they all laugh.
Everyone stops laughing when Axca, Ezor and Zethrid show up running towards Keith.
Keith is out of his chair in an instant. He’s worried something horrible has happened. Is Krolia hurt? What about Kolvian? Did something happen with the blade? There are planets with extreme prejudice against the Galra and they’ve had attacks against their relief teams before.
He’s not ready for what leaves their lips.
Apparently after Keith refused to lead, no one has been able to gather enough support to become the leader of the New Galra government. Keith was an easy pick because of his connections to the Blade, Voltron, and the Atlas. He has valuable connections and experience. No one else can gain the over all support he did.
And you know he’s also pretty. Like unfairly so (for a halfbreed) and somehow the remaining candidates come to the conclusion that whoever can gain Keith as their mate will be the one to lead the New Galra Empire.
After all if Keith doesn’t want to lead he doesn’t have to, he can just sit on the arm of whoever is leading. Give the people reassurance that they are in good hands.
So now at least 15 different Galra, from members of Zarcon’s old regime, to High ranking Blade members, anyone who wants to lead the Galra, are making their way here to try and court Keith and or force him into Marriage/Mating.
Shiro is instantly in over protective Big Brother mode. They need to get Keith out of there.
Kolivan and Krolia had sent Axca, Ezor, and Zethrid for that reason and to back Keith up if he had to fight.
The rest of Voltron is moving to try and help Keith.
Lance is a mix between indignant for his friend who has somehow become a trophy for people to win. Enrage that there is talk about people trying to force Keith to mate them. And also a burning need to keep Keith safe.
But there are also old feelings. He’s mature enough now to know he’s had a crush on Keith for a long time now. And now Keith is apparently the most desired bachelor in the universe!!!
Anyhow I think you can have a lot of fun with this
You can have Keith dealing with a lot of stupid/rude proposals
Gossipy Girl squad. They’d do anything for Keith but they are also going to mock each of these horrible proposals
Jealous and protective Lance
Maybe even bring in the Lions being protective
You can also go the route of Lance just declaring that he and Keith are engaged/courting.
He’s trying to get everyone to stop bothering Keith.
But it puts these two, who have been pinning for each other for years in a fake dating situation.
Also Lance suddenly is enemy number one for anyone wanting to ascend to the Galra thrown.
I just think it’s a fun idea
