@timcanpy-the-golem hopefully this is good!
-Lotor was proud that they decided to call him in
-for the most part, they had kept him out and away from everything, because while he was smooth and did have potential, a thing or two almost always went wrong
-but Lotor was ready to move past that. it had been years since the last time he was in charge and he was going to show everyone that he was ready now
-he plans and plans and plans. once he was sure that nothing could go wrong, he decides it’s finally time to put it in action
-everything was great until it was time for him to meet the paladins
-he had them trapped in a room that he was about to enter and demand them to lower the force fields around the castle and lions
-as he walked in he could see the fear and confusion. everything was going exactly how he- wait dang, the one in blue is h o t
-he ends up tripping and falling right onto a tied up Lance
-he quickly stands up and hopes to move past it as if nothing had happened but he can’t think of anything to say because he was mentally screaming
-Lotor’s too distracted by the way the blue paladin was looking at him in disgust, and the other galra try to take over, but the paladins end up getting away
-a couple of days passed and Lotor’s on a planet in hopes of forgetting and moving on
-Lance sees him from behind and starts to flirt
-Lotor realizes that Lance thought he was female and turns around and makes it clear that that was not the case, ignoring the pangs in his heart
-Lance is shocked originally because this is a dude, a galra dude, but hey, this guy is hot, and there are some good galras such as Keith and the Blade of Marmora so as long as he’s not gonna punch him Lance’ll continue
-Lotor wonders why Lance doesn’t recognise him and realizes that he wasn’t wearing his armor and helmet anymore
-Lance notices Lotor’s face and is all, ok I think I’m bothering this guy too much I’ll just go
-but as he’s leaving Lotor gives some sort of really smooth pick up line and Lance is like, “dang”
-Lotor continues to be super smooth and “accidentally” continues to run into Lance peacefully and they start dating
-but when he’s in his armor with the galra he messes up and hopes no one will kill him out of anger
-the other galra go with it and just pretend that Prince Lotor is some other guy that is leading from afar (so they don’t die of embarrassment)
-one day they don’t even let him come to “help”
-he sneaks in anyway, and Haggar is using magic to bring out Lance’s insecurities
-Lotor panics and subtly takes out Haggar by leading the other paladins to her
-but they’re off fighting Haggar and Lance is still crying in the corner and Lotor sneaks over to him
-he’s still in his armor but he doesn’t care
-he helps Lance and tells him how much he’s needed, about how the galra saw Lance as just as much of a threat as the rest of the paladins are
-Lance worries because now he has a crush on TWO galra and Allura’s gonna be mad, and he already has a boyfriend (lol, Lotor is Hannah Montana)
-Lotor realizes that this paladin doesn’t even recognise him as the galra he knew, but was nicer to him than any other galra ever was just because he helped Lance
-Lotor is thinking about it and realizes that he wants to help Voltron
-it’s really awkward at first
-I mean, this dude is smooth and knows how to get what he wants but manipulation is not something a good guy does
-he tries tho (“why am I so bad at being good‽‽”)
-he finally sees the team again and he talks to them
-at first, they’re all like, “well yeah, ok, we have’t seen this guy do anything bad”
-he lets it slip that he was that clumsy galra, aka Prince Lotor (like when Zuko accidentally says he sent Combustion Man)
-except for Lance, he remembers how nice he was when Haggar had gotten to him (when Aang remembers how Zuko was the Blue Spirit)
-he ends up saving them from a fake Prince Lotor that the galra were trying to trick the team with (Zuko saves them from Combustion Man)
-trust slowly comes back with everyone except for Allura (Katara)
-Allura had tried to convince Lotor to be on the good side when the war had started (“I was the first one to trust you, back in Ba Sing Se”)
-I don’t know how he fixes that, but he does with a magical field trip
-Lance and Lotor’s realtionship is going great, and Lotor makes sure Lance knows he’s loved
…and idk what else because I have never dated anyone in my life so…
I also have no idea how to do Lotor. I just know that he’s smooth but I only remembered that in the middle so this might just be crap idk
