Definition: An identity for those on the ace/aro spectrum who experience a deep, undeniable âgravitational pullâ toward romance and partnership, without the âheatâ of sexual attraction or the âsparkâ of traditional crushes. You want the whole constellation, not just one star.

Definition: A gender identity for those who are firmly men/masculine-aligned but whose experience of manhood is inseparable from high-femininity. You embrace femininity not as "womanhood," but as a masculine performance. Like a prince in a fairytale, you can have long hair, soft features, and "femme" traits while being 100% a dude.
Just some pronouns that fit with my own lil homemade label ^^

Anyways, welcome to my slice of hell my darling dears!
For the @loturazine Royal Alliance II, I designed a charm and it turned out so pretty with the color shifting effect! I wanted to do something symbolic for Lotura and what better symbolism than swords and flowers!
request; Lance scenario, where itâs been many years since Allura died, he meets a new person who gives him hope and he feels himself start to love again?
summay; not all who wander are lost â thatâs what youâve been living by for your entire life, trying to prove to others that it was, in fact, true. but youâve never proved it to yourself â until him.

warning; mention of death.
  IT HAD BEEN years since the passing of allura, since the had lions left, since the paladins had split up. they were on far corners of the earth, each helping the earth one day at a time.
lance had tended to his farm with his family, growing the juniberries that reminded him oh-so-much of allura.
he knew it was wrong. to hold on to her like she was alive, like heâd wake up and see her in front of him. he had to move on, but he couldnât replace her.
it felt like betrayal just to think of it, but to actually do it?
âlance!â veronica yelled. âremember the girl i told you about? the one thatâs coming to help us with the juniberries?â
âyeah?â
âsheâs coming tomorrow. go go prepare what we need for harvesting season!â
lance groaned, but obliged nonetheless. he understood that his family needed this harvest, as juniberries were becoming quite popular in the market.
what he couldnât understand, though, why a distant relative was coming all the way to their farm to help.
well, she wasnât a distant relative, but her and veronica were so close that they considered each other to be sisters. another strange thing  â heâd never met her.
he found the watering cans and the gardening gloves underneath boxes of sylvio and nadiaâs old belongings. he set them out in front of the shed, in an empty bucket heâd been using earlier.
the former paladin wiped the sweat that had formed above his brows, and took in the sky around him. it had started to get dark, around the time heâd usually head in to eat dinner with his family.
as his mami placed the food on the dinner table, as veronica teased marco, as his papi laughed at sylvio and nadiaâs antics, as his abuelita helped lisa with her kids, he could only think of one thing.
who were you?
  âAH, (Y/N)!â VERONICA called over to you.
you sent her a small wave, and she engulfed you in a large hug.
âronnie, my stuff.â you chuckled.
half of your suitcases and bags had fallen, the other half hung off of you.
âsorry!â she laughed, and picked up your belongings. âi just havenât seen you in so long.â
âaw, does the renowned veronica mcclain miss me?â
âin your dreams.â she rolled her eyes playfully. she grabbed your wrist and began to sprint across the fields.
âwoah, slow down!â you warned, but she only giggled in response.
you stopped in front of a small den-like home, sun-hat anything but off and bags anything but touching the ground.
oh ronnie, what have you gotten me into this time.
you had to admit, it was quite cute. an ideal home for someone like you, but it was bigger than a house for someone who wanted to stay by them-self for the entirety of their lifetime.
youâd never had any luck in relationships. every guy youâd ever liked had either curved you, gone for your best friend, or disliked you from the start â so you took it upon yourself to never try and get yourself in a relationship.
besides, it was fun being single, right? you didnât need a man, you could do it all on your own!
âyou can rest for today, since you just came all the way from the humanitarian relief organization.â
you nodded your head no.
âhuh?!â your bestfriend exclaimed.
âi wanna work now. i didnât come all the way here to rest!â
âoh, (Y/N).â veronica muttered to herself.
she took you inside, giving you a small tour of her home and re-introducing you to her family.
youâd already met her grandparents, her parents, rachael, lisa, luis, and even recalled seeing nadia and sylvio when they were babies.
âalright, whereâs my room?â
âweâre sharing, dummy.â she light-heartedly jabbed at you. âokay, i had to pull a lot of things together to get everyone to agree with this, so you better consider yourself lucky.â
âwhat do you mean?â
âyouâre staying with me, so that means the twins...â
you began to zone out, occasionally paying mind to what veronica said. when you werenât listening, you were unpacking what youâd brought with you.
â... are lumped in with lisa and luis, but the bedâs too small, so sylvio...â
you took out your clothes from your bags, folded them and then placed them on veronicaâs bed.
â... and since marco only has one twin-sized beds in his room, papi went to buy a sleeping bag...â
you continued to fold your clothes, and veronica continued to ramble.
an abrupt knock commenced on veronicaâs door and cut her off.
âwho is it?â she called out.
âitâs me!â an unrecognizable voice called out in return.
âcome in.â
a tall (attractive, even) man walked into veronicaâs room. he looked similar to her, but you werenât going to ask her about it yet.
âmami says it's time for dinner." he stated, closing the door after he left.
"hey, ronnie?"
"yeah, (Y/N)?"
"who's that?"
  DINNER HAD BEEN awkward, in a lowkey way. you and lance had been making a lot of eye contact, only to look away when caught.
at least you knew his name now.
you helped veronica with the dishes, and she informed you that itâs far to late to begin working in the field. you offered an understanding smile in return, and dried the plates she handed to you one by one.
after youâd finished, the two of you spent time with nadia and sylvio. she could tell you were distracted.
âwhatâs on your mind?â she asked.
âyour brother.â you blinked.
âgee, you didnât have to be so blunt.â she chuckled awkwardly. âwhat do you think of him?â
âheâs cute.â
veronica facepalmed, before she looked up with a serious facial expression.
âhey... he was in a relationship not too long ago, and heâs still sensitive about it.â
âalright. i wasnât going to go for him anyway, ronnie. i came here to learn more about juniberries, didnât i?â
âhow ironic...â she muttered, though you didnât hear it.
âcould you repeat that?â
âah, it was nothing. letâs play a game.â
the siblings instantly perked up, and got up to follow veronica to wherever sheâd went, leaving you on the carpet to think.
NOTES âââŁâáŠ
this might be a series, i havenât decided yet, but if not, then itâll be a short multi-part story.
âYou know, the ancients believed that all of life began with a single juniberry flower.â - Lotor, s8 ep5, Clear Day
Maybe thatâs why the design of Lotorâs inter-reality gate in season 4 somewhat mimics the petals of a juniberry? Because he was trying to rejuvenate a dying universe with the unlimited stuff of life? And he needed one hell of a juniberry, haha.
(Lol, Iâm just rewatching some s4 and was like eyyy 3 petals, haha. But please imagine with me, that Lotor really did use a juniberry as his base design, saluting ancient mythologies.)

Little Allura celebrates the summer juniberry festival with her family and friends.
Read it here on AO3 !
---
"...And with this, I declare the festivities open!" concluded King Alfor.
"You may now begin the harvest!" claimed Queen Melenor.
Allura applauded with the crowd. She felt so honored that her parents were the ones opening the summer juniberry festival. It was her favorite holiday, a celebration of the summer solstice. She loved the juniberry flowers, their delicate fragrance, their vibrant colors and the gracious way they swayed with the wind; but she loved it even more when, once pollinated, they turned into the pink, sweet and tartish berries that she, like most children, craved. She had to hurry now, to pick the most berries she could. She wanted her parents to be proud of her.
This was the most traditional form of the summer juniberry festival. In the cities it was celebrated on the streets, with music, games, booths selling juniberry pastries, and pink lanterns suspended in the trees and between the houses. But in the mountains, people still honored the summer by picking the berries. The child who had the best harvest was proclaimed Guest of Honnor, and was granted the right to be the first to eat at the banquet that followed in the evening.
She joined her best friends Imona and Lanis. They were both wearing their best dresses for the occasion. Imona had an apricot one, with balloon sleeves, white stitching and several undercoats lined with lace. She was almost dancing in place with excited anticipation, swinging her basket, a big smile illuminating her round, freckled face. Lanisâs dress was quite simple and probably more practical for picking berries; it was in fine but strong apple green fabric, falling to her knees, and had juniberry flowers stitched around the collar; she had green ribbons in her black curly hair, and was frowning at Allura.
"Where's your basket?" she asked.
Allura gasped. She had placed the basket at her feet, so that she could clap after her fatherâs speech, and had forgotten to pick it up afterwards. Her throat tightened and tears started to prickle her eyes; she tried to run back to get it, but Imona grabbed her arm and held her back.
"You'll never find it in the middle of the crowd!"
"But..."
"Come on! We have to hurry, or others will take the lead!"
This was true, and Allura gave up and followed her friends. Last time, she had been third at the contest, and she really hoped to win this time.
Like her friends, she was wearing a beautiful dress, in shades of blue embroidered with gold; luckily, it was layered, so she decided to use her outer skirt as an improvised basket. She was holding it by the hem, and dropping the berries on the fabric. Her idea seemed to work quite well. She  was pretty fast at finding and picking the berries. When the horn signaling the of the end of the harvest sounded, the fabric was heavy in her hands. It hadnât been easy to move around like that, and to make sure no berries fell out, but she still seemed to have more than most of the children she saw around her.
They had to stand in line for the berries to be weighed, and Alluraâs dress felt heavier and heavier. The other children could just put their baskets down, but Allura had to keep holding her harvest. Her arms were starting to hurt, but she was a princess, and she was trained in combat; she was strong, and she would not give up!
Imona was standing beside her, giving her furtive looks without saying anything. Allura felt rather awkward; holding her berries like that must not have looked very dignified. Still, Allura couldnât help but notice that she had clearly more berries than her friend. Maybe she stood a chance despite the circumstances.
When she came towards the officials who were judging the contest, and emptied her harvest in the scales, they seemed a bit surprised, but everyone cheered at the 5 phlombs of berries announced, which was the biggest weight so far.
Her parents came running towards her when she went down the stage. âHoney! Are you all right?â exclaimed Melenor. Itâs only when she saw her mom staring at her dress that Allura looked down and saw that it was completely ruined. She was entirely covered in pink juice. Now she realized how uncomfortable and wet and heavy and sticky the fabric was, too.
Just at that moment, the crowd started applauding, because someone had broken her record. She was suddenly crushed under a feeling of loss and failure, and started bitterly crying.
Her mom knelt down and wrapped her arms around her. âAllura, itâs fine. Itâs just a dress. You arenât hurt, are you?â She shook her head, still sobbing. Her mother pulled away, still holding her by the shoulders and giving her a reassuring smile. âThatâs the most important.â She took a handkerchief out of her purse and started drying her daughterâs tears.
âBut itâs my favorite dress!â replied Allura, unable to stop crying.
Alfor knelt beside them as well, and took Alluraâs hands. âAllura, listen. You mother is right. The most important is that you are safeâ Allura nodded, sniffling.  âMaybe we can save that dress too, after all. Juniberry juice can be tricky but⊠weâll ask Coran. Heâs quite knowledgeable about clothing.â
The crowd was clearing, as the tables were being installed for the feast. Â After she explained about the missing basket, and they reassured her about it too, Alfor and Melenor guided her towards the tables.
Allura recognized Lanis on the throne at the end of the table and a burst of joy warmed her from the inside. She hadn't won this time, but she was happy for her friend who did. Lanis was usually more reserved, but now she seemed so excited and proud that her joy was contagious.
She felt her fatherâs hand squeeze her shoulder encouragingly and looked up. His smile was crinkling his eyes. âIt seems Lanis is the Guest of Honnor, this year! Isnât it nice?â
Allura agreed. They joined Coran, who was waving at them from the table, where he had saved some seats for them near Lanis and her family. Imona and her moms were facing them.
âOh no, what happened to your dress?â inquired Coran when she sat next to him.
âI used it to gather the juniberries.â admitted Allura.
âThatâs a great sacrifice in honor of the summer festival!â assured the royal advisor. âIâm proud of you!â
âBut I didnât do anything. I forgot my basket, stained my dress and lost the contest...â muttered Allura, ashamed.
âCome on now, you did your best!â Coran winked. âAnd weâre all here to celebrate summer! So we should just enjoy this moment together, donât you think?â
Allura looked at her friendsâ happy faces, at Coran and her parents, and nodded.
âYes. Iâm glad to be here with you.â
âLet me serve you some cake, then!' concluded Coran cheerfully.
