brb gonna seduce every member of the Paladins Against Interbreeding Club... I will change their views, one monster dick at a time! 🫡
HEH.....can you imagine invading it through a single monster? The one in this secret club that's the weakest to humans, feels like an outcast, and joins the club not just because he feels like interbreeding is purely a sin, but also because he feels insecure and frustrated over those urges he sometimes feels when he sees a human. Not to kill, but...something worse. To...br...breed....the worst offence for a member of PAI! So his arrogance towards interbreeding comes out full force as a defense mechanism, but then you come along, and....
Honestly, he feels so guilty about his secret. Mounting and trying to breed you, the one human everyone in the club knows and despises, right before his meetings with the underground club. Nodding his head and agreeing with his friends all the horrible things they have to say about humans and how nasty and vile they are, knowing at the back of his mind that you're probably still napping in his dorm room, dripping with his cum. Coming home afterwards angry with himself and you, ready to yell and kick you out so he can desperately try to salvage his honour--only to fall for your tricks yet again and find himself whining and humping you, begging and pawing at you to let him put just the tip in, at least. It's just plain pitiful. He's so mean, so arrogant, but then so pathetic and needy....and he's only one of them. Depending on how confident you are, you can just imagine how you might "convince" those other monsters to give you a chance <3 Maybe you'll end up turning the "Paladins Against Breeding" club into the "Paladin Breeding" club LOL
can i get some youngest paladin hcs with team voltron? and uh,, maybe some bits of,, older brother shiro, like not actualyl related to reader but ya know just being a good older figure of them, only if u want!!!
defenders of friendship - headcanons
fluff
(voltron legendary defender — platonic! team voltron x reader)
even when you and the paladins have to defend the world, they know that they'd do anything to protect you first. even if that meant involving themselves in a little bit of fun
cw / none
a/n — hi anon i hope you enjoy this !! it's not totally amazing but platonic content for any fandom is so hard to look for and i always eat that shit up. hopefully this satisfies :) ily all sm ! @sokkas-honour this is for you bc you love big brother shiro and ik you need this so 🥰 ps no surprise here but keith’s part is my fave lmao and hopefully i don’t fall off the face of the earth anytime soon bc the inspiration is seriously flowing
you're literally baby, but contrary to popular belief i feel like the paladins would be pretty chill with you
trust me if they can let pidge do the things she does, you can too (plus you're super badass so it doesn't matter)
not to say that they aren't protective, bc they totally are !! they just show it in like different ways
for instance, coran, shiro, lance, allura, and hunk are the most protective and vocalize their concerns and like you really feel the love with them
you're actually the closest with shiro and lance; it's to be expected since they're just the kinda people who really just always want to make sure you're comfortable, but team voltron loves you all the same :)
lance is very affectionate, so he always has a hand out for you, but on occasions he can't hold your hand he'll intertwine a pinky with yours to let you know he's there
he's also always whispering random stuff in your ear if you sit next to him during diplomat meetings (that seating placement had been revoked after lance made you laugh so hard you fell off your chair during important alliance making)
i'm pretty sure you asked the blue paladin to give you a piggyback ride around the castle once and he was ready to oblige but he ended up falling on his face bc he's a noodle (keith walked in on him as soon as he faceplanted and never lets him forget it)
so you asked shiro instead (which resulted in a pouty lance; you made sure to have a sleepover with him filled with gossip and face masks)
shiro ever the serious thinks it could be dangerous at first, but inevitably lets himself be vulnerable and now you just casually cling onto his back during meetings in the castle, no one pays any mind to it honestly
he just loves that your young lil self keeps him grounded and despite all you've seen you still carry a sense of innocence and bright air for team voltron
also when you're feeling down he lets you wear a jacket of his and it's so big on you 🥺🙈 you know it's not necessarily practical but you will wear shiro's oversized jacket over your paladin armor sometimes
oh and catch him with mini braids in his hair or the little tuft of his white hair a different color in the coming movements in space :)
now, hunk always makes a little too much baked goods for the sake of bringing the extras to your room by the end of the night and sometimes he'll even keep you company while you eat them to talk about anything !!
if he can't stay he always leaves a lil note for you in the basket about how much he appreciates you and everything (you kept the notes in a little box to read whenever you're feeling not great)
as much as you wanna cook with hunk you're under strict orders from lance not to bc he's scared you could be allergic to alien shit and die
on the other hand allura is basically your older sister ! she likes playing with your hair whenever you have conversations together and she listens intently, offering advice because she understands that there's so much pressure behind defeating enemies
she dotes on you though, and loves playing little road trip games with the mice; and when you're travelling for super long periods of time you keep her company in the control room
normally she likes the peace and quiet steering the ship brings her but you're built different so you can babble about anything while you're together
she feels bad when you fall asleep in your respective paladin chair (even if hunk shiro and lance ended up getting / making some pillows and blankets to make it more comfy) so those nights she carries you to her room and you get some space girl cuddles 🥺
coran always makes sure to come in on those mornings with some altean tea and sing some tunes before you start your days, it's his way of trying to make sure you're doing okay
and sweet sweet coran — he always wants to include you in things so when everyone is doing their own thing and he wants to clean, he'll ask you to help him and tells you about altean culture, and even some embarrassing stories
you also take the time to tell him all about earth and their fashion choices, you two are quite the critics !!
so you have your loving older sister, doting brothers, and space uncle coran; but then there's keith and pidge i-
okay so they don't necessarily tell you they care they show you through two ways: educating you, and bullying you whilst being educated
keith was the one who had the honor of training you with your little bayard space daggers but still makes an effort to make sure you learn how to defend yourself with anything you can grab your hands on
thank the ancients for keith because now you can defend yourself with casual shit like spoons and bowls
sparring sessions consist of "ugh no okay let's just focus. patience yields focus" "don't hold it like that you'll end up cutting into yourself instead of the enemy!" and my personal favorite "y/n your form is sloppy they'll dropkick you if you keep that up"
keith may come off as harsh or trying to overwork you sometimes but he just wants you to be able to defend yourself when he's not around, especially when he's off with the blade of marmora
always makes it up to you with a cold glass of water and a really bad joke after a session (on special occasions you get a pat on the back but you pull him into a hug, lance never lets him live that down either)
any given situation he's the first one by your side when you're injured because he zooms over to you bc lance and shiro go pew pew pew
pidge though omg sometimes she sleeps in your room more than she does in her own because she falls asleep teaching you how to code and you even help tinker with her projects
she doesn't bully you as much as keith does but she only started bullying you because you corrected her one (1) time while tinkering
"pidge you misspelled that, you could accidentally turn off the whole system" "okay and who's the one who's been coding for more than a day? i got this" (she did not in fact, get it, because the thing wouldn't even turn on)
their little shenanigans in trying to care for you brought them all closer though they wouldn't admit it to each other (they all think that but will do progress reports when you're not in the room)
tldr: team voltron is the sweetest family ever and you love them for it
“Cute headcanons for Shiro or Hunk with a dorky botanist who usually ends up running off because they saw something new and absolutely has to examine it”
Shiro
Ohh my god
He’s so happy he doesn’t have allergies.
He has no idea if what you bring home could even make allergies flare-up.
He’ll sit there and listen happily while you talk about the process of plants and what you did that day at work.
He’s just super happy that you’re happy.
Whenever he’s on a mission on a foreign planet he’ll pick up a plant or two.
Allura and Pidge make sure to gather some information on it when Shiro forgets to.
Which is often.
And by often I mean all the time.
He’s just super excited to bring something pretty home to you.
Something no one else could offer >u>
To his surprise, you weren’t too happy when you came home to find an alien flower in your garden.
“Wh-whats wrong with a flower?!” he was genuinely confused.
After explaining to him the dangers of bringing foreign plants to new countries and what could happen he started to limit what he brought back.
He always brought back a new plant in a container.
Once you’ve observed it at home you’ll take it to work and have your co-workers help study it.
After awhile the Garrison would probably invite you and your team to work for them.
Once you work for them you get all new equipment and all access to the galaxies plant life.
Shiro starts crying a little when he sees you kept the first plant he ever gave you at your desk.
He’s learned a lot about plants since he met you.
It comes in a lot of handy on missions actually.
-You get to explore the universe with him now so PLANTS!!!-
He was pretty excited to have you go on such a light mission with him
He wouldn’t even call it a mission, he just needed to drop off some supplies to a planet and the Paladins had nothing else to do today.
So they figured they could explore whatever planets they were sent to.
He was super excited to show off in the Black Lion, like the mega dork he is.
Once the delivery was done he took you to the most interesting place he saw before landing,
He instantly regretted that decision
You ran ahead to look at some flowers, take notes, and record how the insects interacted with it.
All the while some crazy giant snake was creeping up behind you.
Shiro cut it to bits before it could bite you.
He thought he could keep better track of you and keep you safe but holy shit
He looked up.
And you were gone.
When he found you he about had a heart attack.
Whatever vegetation you had found wasn’t vegetation!
It was a lure for prey, and you were sitting on some monsters tongue!
He ran as fast as he could to save you.
But you were gone!
The monster’s mouth snapped shut.
Around him.
You had managed to run off to look at something else.
He was just about to rip his way out of the creature when it all went slack and he was pulled out.
By you.
“You should be more careful! This thing could have digested you in like 5 seconds for all you know!”
He was dumbfounded.
“I’m a scientist you think I’m not aware of these things?”
Hunk
Now Hunk knew about the dangers of bringing forget plants to new places.
When he comes back with his plant gifts
He’s got all the info for you.
Seeds, soil samples, and if there's a video on it he’ll ask Pidge to help translate it :)
He’d be super excited to build you a greenhouse, but why stop there?
He goes to the Garrison, with Pidge as his wingman, to talk about you and how much you’ve learned about alien plants and stuff and how useful that could be as a whole to the planet.
You get a job offer a few days later.
Hunk, Pidge, Coran, and Matt build what's probably the best lab in the Galaxy.
He’s super excited to have you working so much closer to him.
He’s also super duper excited to learn everything he can from you.
Will absolutely find a way to include any edible plants into a dish.
Makes his own cookbook with you as a writer since he couldn’t have done it without you.
-You get to explore the universe with him now so PLANTS!!!-
Oh, he knew what to expect.
He knew you were gonna run off and something bad was going to happen.
He’s Hunk, he plans ahead.
So he made a little pod for the both of you to ride around in and take in the scenery.
It even had a little trunk incase you saw anything you wanted to take back and examine.
He’d probably put a “mood” setting in to tint the windows for some more romantic moments.
How would Lance, Shiro, and Keith take care of their sick s/o?
Lance
Lance has three siblings, so he knows how to take care of anyone with a fever or cold.
He’ll employ Hunk to help him figure out what ingredients to use to make some food you could actually eat while sick. (They file away the recipe for future illnesses)
Will clean your sheets for you every day. (If your sick please try to change your sheets, especially your pillowcases!)
Need a humidifier? He’ll get you one.
Need a new pillow? Take his!
He’ll probably give you a little communicator to call him if you need anything.
Tries his best to just let you rest in peace and quiet.
Soft back rubs and forehead kisses!
The forehead kisses are also meant to check your temp without being obvious, his mom taught him that one :)
Shiro
He’s got a checklist in his head.
Makes sure you have plenty of fluids in you.
Tries his best to make food, but alien food is confusing so he calls Hunk for help.
Like Lance he’ll be sure to change your sheets.
Asks if you need help getting up and doing anything.
He tries his best to not worry too much…
Check up on you as often as he can.
He’s sweating by lunch from all the running around.
The other Paladins let him skip leg day for the next week lol
Keith
He actually doesn’t have a lot of experience with any form of illness.
His father was healthy and his Galra immune system kept him from ever getting any kind of illness.
So when you get sick, he’s like a deer in headlights.
Tries his best…. Asks you how you would want to be taken care of.
Calls Shiro up and asks what he should do versus what he’s already doing.
Usually, his food isn’t too bad, but he leaves it to Hunk to actually make you food.
He’ll stand there and watch while Hunk cooks then attempt it himself.
Nothing he’s made while in space has been very edible….
If you're doing requests how about paladins whose s/o isn;t a paladin so they are basically the one for odd jobs around the castle and usually Coran's assistant and one day Coran was experimenting and it accidentally get's on s/o's hair causing it to grow and grow and GROW. Like, Rapunzel style
Omg, yes! I love scientific mishaps! This is kinda long bc I don’t know how to chill so it’s all under the cut!
Do you know what happens when lithium reacts with water? It fizzes and catches fire. Nothing too dangerous. Move down the row to sodium and it reacts more violently, like a small stick of dynamite. Keep moving down past Rubidium, and things get downright explosive.
Any chemist past their first year knows this and frankly, so should a certain 600+ year old Altean.
You had complete trust in Coran, so when he asked you to hand him #55, you thought nothing of it. The Altean names for the elements didn’t exactly translate well, so it wasn’t until it was too late that you realized exactly what you handed him. Cesium.
You could only watch in silent horror as you whipped around and watched Coran drop a single, small, silver drop of certain death into a beaker filled with viscous purple liquid, praying to whatever gods were listening that you both would live.
When nothing immediately happened you brought your hand to your chest, breathing a sigh of relief as Coran waked harmlessly past you. Then the beaker exploded in a flash of bright light as a shockwave strong enough to knock the both of you off your feet sent you straight into the nearest wall.
You came to a few moments later, a little groggy but nothing worse for wear. You quickly glanced down at your body and moved your limbs around. Satisfied nothing was damaged you glanced at Coran and saw he was still out, but nothing seemed damaged. You ran a hand through your hair, frowned a little at its damp feeling but decided to count your blessings; you were both lucky not to have been skewered with glass or worse.
“Coran? Coran, you ok?” You tapped on his shoulder and smiled as he came to with a start. “Welcome to the world of the living, old man.”
“Y/N? What happened?”, he looked around and spotted the shattered beaker and splotches of purple around the lab. He grabbed your shoulders, anxiously checking you over for damage, “Are you OK #5? I’m so sorry I put you in danger. Is anything hurt - oh, looks like some tonic got in your hair. Do you feel funny?”
“Uhm…”, that was concerning, “Should I feel funny?”
“Uh, no? Listen, why don’t I clean up here and you go…shower that stuff off and, uhm…take a nap? I’ll send your ‘boo’ to you for dinner!”
You gagged at Coran’s use of Earth slang and pulled away from him, “Please, don’t do that. I’ll see you for dinner.” You mumbled a goodbye and Coran waved you off with a smile. If you had to listen to him use the word ‘boo’ again, it would be too soon. You made a mental note to ask Lance to stop teaching him that stuff.
Stifling a yawn, you started your shower and examined the ends of your hair. Was it always that long? Huh, you could have sworn it was an inch shorter. Also, was your scalp really tingly or did the explosion take more out of you than you thought? You shrugged, there was time to deal with that later, that nap Coran suggested sounded absolutely fantastic and you were eager to crawl into bed.
The tingling on your scalp was still there after your dried off but honestly, you were too tired to deal with it. As your head hit the pillow you vaguely wondered if you had a concussion and that was your last thought before lights out.
Shiro:
immediately notices your hair when he walks in and has a slight moment of panic because what does he do???
he tries to reach out and touch your hair but he’s unsure of what to do so he ends up hovering his hands over your head and making small noises of confusion that eventually end up waking you
He’s caught.
“Uuuuuhm…Hi! I was…just about to wake you!”, his eyes dart away from you and he brings his hands to his mouth while looking extremely concerned. “Does your–how do you–hmmmm!” His voice goes incredibly high pitched at that last part and you just raise your eyebrows as he clears his throat and tries again, “Ahem, ok, uhm, does your…head?…feel heavier than normal?” You nod and he continues, “Ok, so uhm, don’t freak out but ah, your hair is long, like, 10 feet long.” He smiles and there’s a pause before you attempt to run to the bathroom.
I say attempt because you tripped on your hair and Shiro catches you before you hit the floor, but just barely
he laughs at you and carries you to the bathroom so you can see the massive amount of hair you now magically have.
he collects the rest from your bedroom as you continue looking at your reflection in disbelief
he starts rubbing your neck as you lean your forehead against the mirror and groan
offers to cut it to a reasonable length since having hair over 10 feet long is just inconvenient
you let him cut however he wants, just please get rid of it (it’s heavyyyyy)
he likes long hair so he ends up cutting it to your mid-back
offers to try and layer it but you shoo him off. You need to yell at Coran. And eat. Turns out growing hair is hungry business.
Low-key thinks this is hilarious but turns into a mama hen when you tell him it’s a result of an explosion
he has words with Coran later. it’s, uh…it’s not good.
Lance
Honestly? he’s ecstatic and wakes you up like a small child on Christmas
“Getupgetupgetupgetup!!!! Oh my god! This is the best thing since Kaltenecker!”
he was literally bouncing you up and down on the bed. Like his hands on your shoulders, bouncing you.
He starts asking you if he can braid your hair before you fully wake up so you’re absolutely confused and decide to kiss him and mumble ‘shut up’ against his lips
he complies before gently pushing you away and caressing your face
“Ok, I’m good. But babe, I gotta tell you something, so please don’t freak out?” You nod and he continues, “Uh, somehow your hair is like freakishly long. Honestly, where is the end?”
He’s right, where is the end? Oh, on the floor. Ok then.
You ask him if he can cut it, since he used to trim his sisters’ hair, and he agrees to. After he gets to play with it because this is awesome
you agree. but only if he goes and gets you some food because you’re reeeeally hungry and not sure how long you can just sit there without food.
After you’re sated, Lance spends pretty much the entire afternoon playing with your hair
first he brushes all of it until it’s silky smooth
then he plaits it all into one long, thick braid. it takes awhile.
somewhere he found some blue ribbon and begins weaving that in the braid
also he found glitter? so now that’s in there too. and some flower-like plants from the kitchen
the end result is actually really pretty and now that it’s all braided, your hair is shortened so that the end barely brushes the floor
deciding to make the best of the situation you keep the braid for the rest of the day, even though your neck is killing you by the end
it helps that every time Lance looks at you his face lights up and he gets this lovey-dovey look on his face that gives you warm fuzzies
he’s a little upset when he has to cut it off but leaves your hair long enough that he can still play with it
Keith
Honestly, probably doesn’t notice your hair at first. He’s too concerned with how cute you look snuggled in bed and is seriously considering joining you but then he remembers that there’s dinner
wakes you up by gently sitting next to you and running his hand through your hair until you start stirring
that’s when he notices your hair is longer than normal because usually he doesn’t have to extend his arm this far….oh, it’s not stopping
You wake up to Keith holding his hand above his head with your hair still entangled in his fingers, his face fixed in pure horror
you scream
he screams
it continues until you both run out of breath
once that is over, Keith de-tangles himself while you explain that this was probably the result of the explosion in the lab but you don’t get much farther than that because Keith is now grabbing you by the shoulders demanding to know “What explosion in the lab, Y/n? What? Happened?”
he’s mad and upset but so glad you’re ok but why didn’t he know about this???
you explain it again, slowly, and make sure Keith isn’t going to blow up on Coran
he begrudgingly agrees only because you obviously aren’t hurt
However, your neck kind of hurts from all the hair so you ask Keith if he can cut it for you and he agrees
he’s kind of weirded out by how fast your hair grew. It’s not right and he wants it g.o.n.e.
Hunk
notices your hair the moment he walks in and he immediately turns around and lets the door shut behind him
he collects himself for a second, surely convinced it was your blankets around you not your hair because tha-a-a-t would be craaaazy!
he tries again and nope, that is definitely your hair. Ok. Weird.
he starts wondering if maybe it’s food related but he hasn’t used any new ingredients so probably not.
it’s not like you guys have landed on a planet recently
maybe you’re part alien and being in space has like, activated your alien DNA? ooooohh, you and Keith can be alien-buddies!
no wait, he remembers your recent scan in the healing pods and you are fully human
He’s got nothing else so he gently wakes you with a high-pitched, “Heeeyyyy Cupcake! Did you have a good nap? …Yeah? That’s great. Uh, listen I don’t know how to say this so I’m just gonna–You’re hair is–I dunno I’m eyeballing this–12 feet longer than usual? Where you awar–oh, nope. Definitely not aware. Oookay, let’s just, yeah, c’mere.”
He wraps you in a hug as you take in the nest of hair you were sleeping in. He lets you go when he feels you relax.
you explain what happened and even though he’s extremely alarmed, you seem fine and your hair doesn’t seem to be growing anymore. Although he can’t really tell.
“So uh, what do you want to do? I think it’s actually pretty cool! Like, you two literally found the cure for baldness. Baldness!”
you want it gone
while Hunk is a man of many talents, cutting hair is not one of them. He suggests either going to Shiro or Lance since both seem to keep their hair in check. But not Keith. He would cut your nice hair with his knife, like some kind of barbarian.
however, please let him braid it for a while, it looks like so much fun!
Pidge
you wake up to Pidge sitting on the opposite side of the room, your hair stretched out because she’s busy measuring it
you sit up and she immediately asks you when you fell asleep because the rate of hair growth is just fascinating
you’re still stuck on the fact that the hair between her fingers is attached to your head
Pidge is a simple girl and takes this all in stride and honestly, the fact that she isn’t freaking out really calms you down. which is wonderful because she needs to know every single detail
you gladly go into detail because for some reason it seems really hilarious right now
like seriously? you get exploded and wake up looking like Rapunzel. Space Rapunzel.
when finished she pulls out hair scissors and offers to cut your hair back to its original length
to the best of her ability, of course
although you know her better than that
you know she misses her long hair so you ask her if she wants to play with it before it goes?
she screams yes! and tells you to stay still while she raids Lance’s bathroom. He has the best hair supplies.
you two end up playing with it until dinner in which you have to, once again, explain what happened
everyone wants to play with it too and somehow it turns into a sleepover
you cut it off in the morning though because your neck is killing you
Imagine if the boys accidentally got caught under some alien thingy that basically acts like a love potion that makes them act on their feelings that they were hiding for their s/o
I think I got angsty at the end, oops.
“Well, it essentially acts like a truth serum! Making him more susceptible to answering direct questions and acting on the most subtle of urges. Quite ingenious really, it harms no one except those with something to hide. It reminds me of the way Alkornizaks snuff out–”
“What do you mean essentially Coran? Is he going to be ok?” You glanced fearfully at the paladin sitting before you who was swaying gently back and forth while gazing at you with a glazed expression akin to some sort of wonder.
“Well, in short answer, yes!”
“And in long answer??”
Coran twirled his mustache and smiled kindly, “The serum was meant for Allura but thankfully Alteans and Humans aren’t too terribly different in their metabolism. He’ll be fine in a few hours. Why don’t you take him to his room, eh? Let me know if anything happens.” You thanked Coran and he left the medical bay with a fatherly wave, leaving you alone with a drugged paladin you’ve been harboring feelings for what seems like ages.
A part of you wanted to ask him how he felt about you but the other, more moral side was screaming that that would be a violation of the trust you both had built. Taking advantage of their fragile state would be an unforgivable act no matter how you twisted it....or wanted it. Damn your good upbringing. “Alright, you”, your paladin perked up as you closed the gap between you, “Let’s get you to bed, huh? Would you like that?”
Shiro
since he’s one of the biggest paladins, will probably be less influenced by the serum but will still be very much a happy limp noodle
hums happily when you grab his hand and tug him along and continues to hum a happy tune down the hall. he has a really nice voice.
then he notices your butt. Normally he likes to sneak looks and maybe daydream a bit about being able to just hold it while he kisses you. But that’s normally.
Totally uses your clasped hands to twirl you around, hold you to his chest, and gently kiss you while running a hand through your hair.
The moment is ruined when his other hand snakes down and gives that butt a good squeeze and a little smack
When you pull back in surprise Shiro just giggles and tells you he’s been wanting to do that for ages (his hand is still on your butt)
“Alright lover boy, get back to me when you’re sober.” “So, you’re not mad?” “Not at all, I just want you sober before any declarations of love or whatever.”
he makes you stay with him in his room until the serum wears off completely. Realizes what he’s done but proceeds to quietly ask you if you want to date him.
You draw him in for a slow kiss as your answer.
Then you smack. that. ass.
Hunk
Also less influenced by the serum but he’s an honest boy with no boundaries
proceeds to tell you his every thought. He is straight up narrating his mind rn
“You’re hands are really soft, how do you do that? Also they’re really warm and wow, I am holding a pretty girl’s hand right now. Oh my god, we’re holding hands! WOOOOOOW!!! This is great. You’re great. Have I ever told you how pretty you are? Because I thought you were an angel when I first met you and then you started cooking with me and I think maybe you were flirting with me a little? I dunno, but then I thought--no, I knew you were an angel. I literal space angel. In space. I don’t ever want to let go of your hand. Can we stay like this??? Because I’m having a great time--”
This continues all the way to his room and he’s just so earnest and sincere and so goddamn sweet you end up smiling the whole time because you’ve like him for a while and it’s very clear he likes you too
Totally understands why you aren’t talking to him too terribly much because he’s acutely aware that he’s spilling his guts and would normally be mortified if he were sober but he’s adamant about you staying with him for a bit because he just really wants to be in your presence.
“--Because I like you, like really like you and I kinda want to be with you every second of the day but I know that’s not really practical because like, you need to sleep and go to the bathroom, and so do I, but can we like date or something? Because I really want to call you my girlfriend, and babe, and darling, and honey bear, and--”
You cut him off with a finger to the lips and ask him to try again when he’s sober. He nods and continues talking your ear off about whatever topic you through at him until the serum wears off and he’s able to very sheepishly ask if you still like him.
Spoiler alert: you do.
Keith
“Let’s get you to bed, huh? Would you like that?” There’s a small moment where you realize just how fucked up the serum has made Keith because he looks so lost and confused and his eyes are a bit glassy as the rake up your form. He looks like he’s trying to process each individual syllable you’ve just said and by the way he’s tugging at his bottom lip, he’s having a rough time. Maybe the serum works differently on Galra?
Then he snaps back to reality for a second long enough to say, “Only if you join me.”
“Well, I am technically taking you to your room-” “NO!!!”
Keith stands up and wobbles a bit after his extremely loud exclamation so you reach out to hold his arms and he just kinda collapses into you. Seriously, what was in that stuff?
He takes an extra second before raising his head and kinda knocking you in the forehead with his own. It hurts but Keith is really close and you can make out every light freckle on his nose and his eyes are just so impossibly purple and pretty you just kind of freeze while he takes the time to gather his syrupy thoughts
He gets huffy and pouty but finally he he’s able to talk.
“I want you to stay with me. All the time. I don’t like it when you leave me. I get jealous when Lance makes you laugh. Or Hunk lets you try new food. Or when Shiro ruffles your hair. Or when you and Pidge and Allura have those girl nights? What are those??? I want to do all those things with you. I want you. I like you.”
Keith got quieter at the end of his little speech and is now a blushy mess but he’s still wobbly and leaning onto you for support. He’s got a hand in your hair and is playing with it mostly so he can avoid looking at your face because he’s scared. Scared he’ll get rejected like how his parents rejected him, like the garrison reject him.
You smile and nuzzle his nose with yours to get him to look back at you and the tears in his eyes break your heart. You leave a small kiss on his nose and reassure him you’re not going anywhere and will sit in bed with him if that’s what he wants.
The serum wears off some time after you’ve accidentally fallen asleep in his bed so Keith ends up spooning you and whispering how much he likes you into your hair. When you eventually wake up the first thing he does is try to give you a kiss.
I say try because he came at you a little too fast and ended up knocking your faces together. You got it right the second time.
Lance
“You’re the prettiest lady I’ve ever seen.” You hate how much your heart races hearing those words out of Lance’s mouth because if he wasn’t such a flirt they might actually mean something. You gently tug on his hand and try to lead him away but Lance digs his heels into the ground and brings you to a stop.
“You don’t believe me.” The uncharacteristically serious tone in Lance’s voice makes you turn around. You want to tell him no, of course not, but such harsh words aren’t in your nature. You also want to tell him how much you want to believe him because the butterflies you get every time he smiles at you won’t go away
Lance drops your hand and takes a deep breath, like he’s readying himself for something big.
“You heard Coran. Truth serum. I can’t lie right now. I. Like. You. I like the way you laugh at my jokes and that way you tuck your hair behind your ear when you’re nervous. I like that I can spill my guts to you and know that you won’t make fun of me for it. I like how you always make sure to praise me after practice, and the way you stick your tongue out when you’re concentrating, and the way your face lights up when you hit your targets...”
Lance grabs both of your hands this time and brings them up to his mouth to place a gentle kiss on each. “I like how you make me feel like I’m not alone,” he whispers.
You’re shook. You don’t know what to say and Lance is just standing there, waiting, still holding your hands to his mouth. He likes you. He actually likes you!
Eventually you end up smiling and asking him to try again when he’s back to himself because you feel a little iffy about coerced confessions. He agrees and tries to nuzzle into your hair but the serum has made him forget how to move those limbs and he kind of ends up toppling over onto you but it’s hilarious and your guys’ laughter ends up dissipating the serious vibe that was going on
After he’s serum free Lance does his best to make a bouquet out of whatever he can find including paper, some really cool plants from the kitchen, what you’re sure is a sock, some metal pieces from Pidge’s shop, and one of the mice and proceeds to knock on your door to officially ask you out.
He gets down on one knee and everything. When you say yes and take the “bouquet” he proceeds to scream “SHE SAID YES” as loud as possible while running around in circles. Keith yells at him to shut up but you think he’s absolutely adorable.
