How about birthday since Lance's birthday is coming soon?
that’s a great idea! unfortunately i think if we do a shance week soon-ish it will take place after his birthday just because we wanna plan and make sure people know about it in advance so they can prepare stuff! but otherwise this would be a great idea! i’ll still add it to the list because who says you have to celebrate birthdays only on the day?!
For prompts- maybe Resurrection/Undeath? Since they both died and were revived. Or Mirror? (Lance looking at Shiro and seeing what he wants to be but can't vs Shiro looking at Lance and seeing what he lost and can never get back) or Horizon? (Where the sky and the sea meet except they never meet and it's mutual one sided pining) or Mourning? (Their loved ones or themselves)
these are BRILLIANT i’m obsessed with the mirror one and the horizon one (i love some good angst)
i’m absolutely adding them to the list of potential shance week prompts!!
Shance week is pretty much over tomorrow, well for me anyway. I’m really glad at the really good response, especially since Shance is kinda hated in the community. I’m really glad for people like @kingsdoodles, @knightnurastar, @fiercaldra, @keirdark and @gorgonopsidofawesome for encouraging me. They’re amazing people and I’m lucky to know them. So thank you everyone, for making me Shance Week really memorable with all the kudos and reblogs. It made me really happy. I’ll be seeing you in December for Shklance week.
So I hope I did a pretty good Galra!SHiro. It was pretty short. Hope you enjoy it.
Altean!Lance/Galra!Shiro or Altean!Shiro
“Lance, look out!” Keith’s voice rang as the room around the Altean prince started to come down. Lance was frozen as he watched a part of the roof came closer when he was shoved out of the way. He slammed into the wall, out of the way and he could feel something hovering over him. He opened his eyes and looked up to see golden eyes looking back down at him. Galra golden eyes. He pressed himself closer to the wall and tried to reach his Bayard, when he hesitated. The person on top of him was human. He had black hair cropped short but white fringe hanging in front of his forehead. The scar on his nose was so prominent on his face. He noticed that his left arm was made of metal. It was nothing like Sendak’s arm, it was sleeker, minus the claws it had. Noticing the prince’s attention, the human looked down at him and gave him a smirk, revealing the fangs he had.
“Can’t have his highness getting hurt now can we?”
“Lance? Where are you?” that was Hunk. He wanted to answer, but what was this guy gonna do?
He just continued to smirk and his arm, the robotic one, turned purple. He flinched away from it when the guy turned and slashed at the rubble behind him. The power of the hit broke most of it, enough for the others to know where he was. The guy looked back at him and gave him another smirk before jumping away. He heard Hunk and Keith shout out before hearing Hunk’s Bayard go off.
He had helped him. That Galra human person, had helped him. He could have let him get crushed, he could have ripped his throat out, he could have held him hostage, but he didn’t. Why?
“Lance!” he looked up to see Keith, hung over the debris, his hand out, “are you ok? Come on, we’re getting out of here.”
He felt dazed as he grabbed Keith’s hand and was pulled from the rubble. The question continued to ring throughout his mind, why?
“Lance?” he looked up at his sister, who was looking at him in concern, “are you alright?”
“Yeah, I’m fine. Did you get him in ok?” when they were leaving, Hunk apparently discovered a mode on his Bayard, stun. He got a lucky shot and the person was hit. They would have left them there but Hunk recognised him. Takeshi Shirogane, a piolet on the same mission that Pidge’s father and brother went missing on. But he wasn’t the same anymore. His grey eyes and patient personality had been replaced by something the Galra messed with. Pidge begged Allura that they bring him back, hoping they could get answers about her family. She agreed only if he was put in the Castle’s dungeon. They would have put him in one of the memory pods but Allura didn’t want him anywhere near Sendak.
“Yes, he woke up just as we got him in though. I don’t like him being able to talk. I know the Galra had to have messed with him enough that he’d try to hurt Pidge.”
“She’s smart. I think she can handle herself. But Allura, what about…?”
“We’re not talking about Lance. Don’t even mention it to the others.” Allura’s face hardened
“But if –”
“No. he’s not human anymore. It’s because of the Galra this whole war started. It’s because of Zarkon betraying us. I don’t care, I refuse to believe it.”
Lance fell silent. Black, the leader of the lions and the head of Voltron, had no piolet. Allura tried but she didn’t respond enough. They were without Voltron, but somehow they had survived. They were able to fight fleets and get away and still be able to liberate planets. Fighting RoboBeasts were a hassle but they survived. When Shiro, as the others called him, entered the castle, Black had perked up. Blue told him that Black was saying her piolet was near. And while Allura heard it, she refused to believe it. She wasn’t trustworthy of the Galra because of what happened with Zarkon.
But he couldn’t be all that bad. He saved him and didn’t kill him. There had to be something about him. When Allura left him to rest in his room, he waited until he was sure before sneaking down to the dungeon. It wasn’t hard to find him; it was the only cell with activated bars.
He stood in front of the cell and looked inside. Shiro was sitting in the middle of the room, his eyes closed but when lance got close, they opened revealing his gold eyes.
“Well hello your highness. What are you doing down here near the big bad Galra?”
“Shiro, was it?”
“It’s Kuro actually. Shiro is now but a muted voice in my head. Kind of like that one that’s been here since I woke up here.”
Black, she was trying to talk to Shiro – Kuro – despite Allura saying no. Zarkon was a Galra and Black rejected him. Kuro had to be different for her to talk to him. “That’s the Black Lion. Looks like she recognises you as her Paladin, which is why I’m here.”
Kuro stood up and got close to the bars, leaning his metal arm on one of the bars. They wouldn’t hurt him unless a switch was activated. “Your sister was pretty insistent that if Shiro didn’t come back, I was on a one way trip to deep space. Why is the Black Lion interested in me?”
“My sister didn’t tell you about Black because of who you worked with. But here’s what I don’t understand. You could have killed me, but you didn’t.”
Kuro gave him a small smirk, “be a shame to let a pretty face go.”
Lance tried not to blush. He could flirt up a storm, but get a complement and he was red. “Be honest.”
Kuro’s face turned solemn, “I might be able to ignore your teammates’ friend, but they’re one thing we agree on. Zarkon will not win. With the way he runs things, he’s going to fall before he knows it, from the inside mostly. And Hagger? I want nothing more than to rip that witch’s throat out. I don’t appreciate her ‘tests’ she runs on me.”
“If you were to help us, and lead Voltron, will you completely turn your back on the Galra?”
“I’m a bad person, how do you know I wouldn’t turn my back on you?”
“You saved me,” Lance pointed out. “If you really trusted the Galra, you would have let me die.”
Kuro stared at Lance. He knew this was a big risk, but he had trust that he could trust Kuro, just a bit.
“I lead Voltron, and I defeat the Galra? And you can keep your sister away from me?”
“I’ll be honest; it’ll take a lot for the others to trust you completely, but yes. Promise to help us, and we can promise to help defeat the Galra. Deal?” Lance held out his hand.
Kuro looked at it and his smirk came back on his face again. He almost looked mischievous. “Yeah, I do things a bit differently.” His other hand shot out and Lance felt something grab the back of his head before yanking him forward. His lips collided with Kuro’s, their teeth clanking. He felt on of Kuro’s fangs cut his lip before it was sucked on. Kuro let him go and Lance pulled away, taking a huge breath. Lance felt his whole face turn completely red while Kuro looked completely smug.
“Lance!” Keith had coming looking for the prince and found him red-faced in front of Kuro’s cell. “What are you doing here? What happened?”
“Nothing you need to worry about. Just making a deal.”
Lance was seriously starting to wonder what the hell he got himself into.
