    Summary

    Lance’s posture has gone from somewhat respectable to bad to worse, and his attention span is slowly but surely reaching its breaking point, when the door in the back of the room slides open.

    Blue and gray and black. Long, dark hair. A familiar set of eyes. The same faded scar carved along his cheek.

    Lance jerks upright, nearly jumping out of his chair.

    “I’m filling in for Kolivan.”

    The words strike right through Lance’s sternum. And he didn’t even have his defenses up. He didn’t have time to prepare.

     

    Although somewhere deep down, he knows that no time in the world could’ve prepared him for seeing Keith again.

     

    or: Being stuck with his ex at a diplomatic conference for a solid month is super cool and very fun. Because Lance is over him. Obviously. He so is.

    Absolutely beautiful. Super angsty, but it all gets better in the end. Mwah, chef's kiss.

    Summary

    “You can’t quit two days before the biggest show of our entire career!”

    James casually taps his cigarette off in the tray sat in the middle of Lance’s dining table, as if they’re discussing the weather rather than the catastrophic implosion of their band.

    “O-kay,” he says slowly, “well, I am, so…?”

    “No the fuck you are not.” Lance grits, knuckles turning white where he grips the edge of the table. He’s seriously considering flipping the entire thing over.

    “Guys,” Hunk cuts in quickly, both hands raised in a peacekeeping gesture, “I know everybody’s stressed right now, but maybe we should all just calm down and—”

    Pidge's chair screeches violently across the floor.

    “I’m gonna kill him,” they announce, already halfway over the table. “I am going to fucking kill him!”

    Or: James quits the band at the worst possible moment and offers up his famous guitarist ex, Keith Kogane, to take his place. But if there's one thing Lance McClain truly hates, it's eyeliner-wearing, mullet-having, nepo baby bastards.

    Summary

    “Earth word is depression. It means sad mood that doesn’t go away easily. It’s caused by a chemical imbalance in the brain.”

    Rocky makes a frustrated little noise. “How fix, question?”

    “I don’t know,” I say, and Rocky deflates a little. “Good chemicals.”

    And that’s when I get a really stupid idea.

    Loved, loved, loved it. I haven't read the PHM book but I saw the movie and was desperate for something to read, and this was perfect! Definitely tied me over until I can buy the book. Rocky's characterization (from what I've seen, anyway) was amazing!

    Summary

    Lance receives a prophecy he didn't ask for — one that comes with a countdown on his wrist and the knowledge that he's going to die.

    --

    A 30-day-challenge written entirely using prompts!

    (And in case you're not one to read tags, just know I'm not a sadist and Lance is my favorite character. In other words, you can expect a happy ending.)
