Summary:

Three Garrison Cadets Missing After Freak Satellite Crash By Mara Garrett, News Editor | The Guardian | Monday, June 13, 2103 7:40 A.M. ET

Two seventeen-year-olds and a fifteen-year-old went missing Friday night after a rogue satellite crashed into the desert a few miles away from the Galaxy Garrison Training Facility, reports say. Garrison officials were quick to cordon off the area, claiming many of the remaining satellite fragments were dangerous and unstable. Government search parties have been sent out into the surrounding desert areas. Details are forthcoming.

Her brother is missing. Lance’s sister isn’t about to sit quietly while the Garrison keeps lying to the press. No—she’s going to get to the bottom of this.

(Or: The paladins’ families team up to find their kids and overthrow the corrupt Garrison regime. Told through news articles, prose, the internet, and art.)

Don’t Forget to Breathe

Author: Dylexa Artist:Sarcasticbirb Beta: Chihuahuarocks

Ship: - General Rating: Teen & Up

Warnings:  - Potential triggers  - Hints of depression - Attempted suicide

Summary: The only thing he could see was the lack of color. Grey walls. White coats. Dull people. An unbearable silence. The doctors who poked and prodded him hardly spoke a word, except to talk among themselves about Keith. As if he wasn’t in the room, as if he wasn’t often dull and lifeless himself. Nobody cared. His cries had gone unheard for so long that he had learned to swallow the blood back down, breathe in the scent that meant pain like it was nothing. Because to these people, it really was nothing. Nothing other than the habits of a broken lab rat.

LIONBORN

Author: @hagane-no-shiro Artists: @acequeenm-art ,@mothableart & @erenspencil

Ship: - General Rating: Teen & Up Warnings: None

Summary: When Takashi, son of the Shirogane Household and knight of the Garrison Royal Guard, went missing on a quest, everyone thought him dead. Everyone, that is, except his little brother, Keith. Losing his position as a knight in the Garrison Royal Guard in the process, he swore to find him and get him back, no matter what it took. He didn’t expect that that would result in accidentally awakening an ancient lion goddess that’s looking for her ‘paladin’ and striking a deal with her.

But hey, when life gives you lemons…OR The fantasy AU in which Keith is looking for his brother, Blue is looking for her paladin, and they just might be able to help each other out.

He’s a Keeper

Author: ErinNovelist / atimelordswife Artist: Marz (tumblr/twitter)

Ship: Keith/Lance

Rating: Teen & Up

Warnings:  - Injuries  - Mentions of Injury/Blood

Summary:

Newly-drafted Lance McClain never thought he’d step foot on the soccer field, but he’s dead set on making his mark on the sport. When his rival and fellow teammate, star-player Keith Kogane, suffers a debilitating injury that forces him on the sidelines, Lance might finally get his chance.

Under Keith’s tutelage, Lance sets out to prove himself in a professional soccer league, adhering to long nights on the pitch, chaotic practices and plays, and that stupid little rule of not falling in love with his teammate (else he might get kicked off the team and lose everything he’d ever worked for, but hey, no one said this would be easy, right?)

It’s the coming of age story about soccer, underdogs, and love.

 Cold Feet

author: sweet-rabbit artist: pookelucy ship: - Keith/Lance rating: general warnings: none summary: Keith and Lance predictably scew up to where they have to get married to appease the ravenous fans of the planet Klamedia. All is well, though, since at the end of the day it doesn’t mean anything and it would be silly to imagine otherwise. Especially if you’re playing the part of the bride.

 It’s All About Us

author: katiepidgeywidgey artist: bluelionlynne beta: bluelionlynne and morningmedicine

ship: - Keith / Lance rating: Teen and Up warnings: -Graphic Depictions of Violence

summary:

Lance McClain was sure of only one thing in his life; he was blind. Other than that, it was always changing. His parents separated, his mother remarried. His new family makes his life hell, and the funny thing is that his rival, Keith Kogane, manages to be the one thing that remains constant. As his life continues to change, the memories remain.

aka a Cinderella story that includes blind!Lance and has me writing every cliche in the book, which includes children

Hey! I was a little curious because I checked on the archive and it didn't seem like all of the fics were there? Is it only a catching up issue? Sorry for bothering, I was just wondering!

Unfortunately, the mod (Mod Maddy) whom has access and knows how to update the archive is having some computer issues. However, we’ll update the archive as soon as we can. Sorry about the delay. :)

Author: Jesswithane Artist: raerara

ship: - Keith/Lance

other ships: - Shay/Hunk - Allura/Shiro

Rating: Mature

Warnings:  - Death  - Blood  - Violence - Cursing

Summary:

      Dear Journal,                                                                                                June 20, 1943

       I can’t believe I made it. This is like, the most exciting thing to ever happen to me. Ever. In my whole life! This is even better than kissing that girl from the beach, what was her name, Maryanne? Oh who cares, I’m a pilot!

       If only I could tell Mama. But after all those stupid “Private Snafu” cartoons and, “Watch What You Write!” shit, I don’t even want to try. So, instead, I’m going to write in this journal so I don’t forget all the exciting parts to tell Mama and everyone when I get back. I don’t want to forget a thing!

I promise to tell you everything I can. From that stupid-head Keith, to my new friends, and maybe a secret mission here and there.

- Lance “Blue Paladin” Sanchez-McClain
