Altean Lance... except please hear me out. Altean Lance in which some Alteans made their way to Earth before Altea was destroyed. Lance can still be the amazing Cuban boy he is and we can have magic
eh… i guess??? but like. you see….part of that is already essential to allura’s story. allura (and coran) are the last alteans. altea is a core part of their identity and culture. and well…..cuba is mentioned a lot when the writers talk about lance, and even merch has mentioned this. it’s essential to his identity and culture. and like, yeah, you can gimme the whole “”altean heritage”” or whatever but. that’s ultimately allura’s story. altean lance serves nothing storyline-wise.
now, if you gimme altean lance au where his cuban heritage remains an essential part of his identity………nice.
