(( Sometimes I am unsure how much of the things I’ve experienced and learned over that past few years is common stuff everyone either already does and knows/just things people learn and experience around this time of their lives, or if it’s things specific to like, seasonal life. ))

(( like everyone I work and live with knows what the PCT is but when I go back to my hometown over the holidays nobody knows what I’m talking about. Or I was talking to a DM of mine from college about Titus and he thought it was sad that Titus lived in a van, when I and most people I’ve met recently have been doing that or already did that for a long time. Help me ))

modern!au k(lance)

they're all in their 20's except for Shiro who's 30 and coran who's 50

first of all. miss me with that 'pining roommate' shit. I love miscommunication and making characters that r sexy bffs with one another

Lance meets Nyma through a Craigslist ad he put up saying he needed a roommate. the moment they met was a tragedy for everyone but them because they're that powerful and beautiful

lance with tousled hair, wearing a half-unbuttoned silk shirt and designer jeans, Michael kors sunglasses pushed up atop his head, arm wrapped around nyma: hi guys this is my roommate, nyma!

nyma, with her blonde 3-ft long box braids down her back, perfectly manicured red nails, bodycon dress and loubitons, hand on lances waist: hey

allura, shaking and on the verge of tears: STOP MAKING US LOOK POOR AND UGLY

Lance is in school for marine biology and Nyma works as a hairdresser and the both of them are small beauty gurus on YouTube that collab with one another

lance: hey guys we're going to be trying out the new anastasia pallete we got today :)!

nyma: and by got we mean shoplifted from sephora

lance: NYMA YOU CAN'T JUST SAY THAT

they're also insta baddies and both gender non-conforming baddies. Nyma is a nonbinary lesbian icon and lance is a nonbinary bicon.... those are like the fucking BEST senses of style

anyone with eyes can see that nyma is into and ONLY into girls but of course... heteronormativity.

rolo: I still don't get why you're dating lance. he's super annoying.

nyma: he doesn't bitch nearly as much as you even when he's got my cock in his ass

they do this thing where when people assume they're a couple they pretend they're some kind of kink couple and freak everyone out

which is why when hunk and pidge meet nyma they're like :eyes: but when nyma flirts with pidge lance doesn't even bat an eye and then lance starts pining about Keith's greasy mullet and his bags under his eyes and nymas got this look on her face that perfectly resembles a man who's lost all sense of normalcy and righteousness in his life and now sits in a bar every night listening to this dumb romance novel type shit and then pidge and hunk are like. oh. no they're just gay.

speaking of keith. he's one of those gays. one of the quirky emo gays that never sleeps and listens to 'coffee and cigarettes' on repeat and has like 3 strings of lights in his room and not only is an art major but ALSO a photographer. and yet somehow he still has the will to wake up at 5 am every morning and go to the gym like some kind of HEATHEN.

Lance knew Keith in high school for 3 years until he got expelled for fighting at the end of his junior year. He was also universally crushed on and was the bad boy jock of the school with a heart of gold so naturally Lance pretended to despise him so he could pine for him in peace

that all goes down the drain when Lance recognizes Keith in one of his classes and goes through the five stages of grief because a) he's hot and b) Lance is openly bi now so he doesn't have an escuse to not tolerate him

(He wasn't gonna do anything about it until he was put in a group with Keith a few weeks into class and he off handedly mentioned he went to Keiths high school, and Keith claimed he didn't remember him, and Lance was just a tad bit upset but was gonna leave it at that except after like 5 days of working together Keith slams his fists into the table and is like 'HOLY FUCK LANCE MCCLAIN?' And Lance is like. w. What.)

turns out Keith does remember lance. very vividly, actually. because he was the guy that everyone kind of had a crush on because he was so nice and charming to everyone he met, and Keith was SO gone for him. he just didn't recognize him tbh, which makes sense, bcuz in high school lance wore blue contacts and had straight hair and now he just wears glasses occasionally and leaves his hair wavy. Keith is gay and stupid don't blame him

keith, bursting into Shiro and Adams apartment at 2 pm: SHIRO HOLY FUCK

adam, bags under his eyes, underneath the covers of him and shiros bed: good fucking god not again

I'm tired of talking about ppl other than Lance and nyma though so I'm gonna talk about them for a bit because im love

as I said Lance has wavy hair and his actual eye color is brown but as he was growing up he was hella insecure about it that's why he wore blue contacts.... nyma caught him once trying to put them on again and put an end to All That Real Quick

nyma has brown eyes too and they're super dark, almost black, and that shits breathtaking bro. she usually has her real hair dyed blonde all the time and permed but she also likes to wear wigs and get braids too because she knows she looks damn good in them. everyone is jealous.

lance has tons of super light freckles. Enough said. nyma has a birthmark on her hip that's kind of shaped like a horse if you look at it from the right way

lance: you were a horse girl as a kid weren't u

nyma: how fucking dare. how fucking dare you say that. I really do have to laugh.......

nyma: obviously I was a warrior cats stan

lance's sense of fashion ranges from 'i went to California for a week once and now I can't stop wearing sweatpants and slides' to 'It's surprising I haven't gotten robbed at this point'. Lance is a scholarship baby so all the money he saved up through countless jobs and the one he already has at a coffee shop almost exclusively goes to clothes and kombucha

Nymas sense of style is definitely more on the eccentric side but since she looks good in EVERYTHING she gets away with it. think dollskill but with more neon colors and designer. she's the kind of person that never wears the same shade of lipstick for a whole month and has a box full of makeup palletes that are almost untouched and everyone who has seen it is both jealous and in wonder FENTYWAYS...

Keith goes over to lance's apartment for a project of sorts and immediately assumes that Lance and Nyma are a thing (they're very platonically affectionate, Nyma will kiss lance's cheek and they cuddle sometimes) which is disappointing but it's not a surprise considering Lance is so Lance and everyone else acts like they are dating so that must be the case, right?

lmao you thought.

nyma: holy shit. holy Fuck. God, allura is so hot. I would probably die if she brushed past me. I would die happily knowing I've been blessed by the touch of an angel.

lance: yeah haha she's really pretty.

keith, struggling to not choke on his coffee hearing All This at 9:31 A.M. in starbucks:

Keith asks if he can take photos of the two of them for his photography insta and they both jump on it so they can flex being sexy and afterwards Lance thanks him with a kiss on the cheek and Keith is sent REELING into gay mayhem.

lance: do you think that was like..... too much.

nyma: i think men are dumb that's what.

I mean u can't really blame Keith because Lance and Nyma are constantly joke-flirting with one another on social media and are in almost every one of the others photos in some way, or at least tagged, so by the time Keith actually works up the nerve to ask about that, it's been WEEKS since Lance kissed him and he's been miserably failing to ignore it

keith: so.... how's nyma doing?

lance: she's good! She's spent all day dying one of her wigs so she went for a coffee run lol. probably will hang with allura and shay later too

keith: and.... that doesn't make you jealous?

lance: LOL no.... they could never compete with me (talking about being Nyma's best friend)

keith: oh.... well, it's good that you trust each other a lot in your relationship.... you seem like a really good boyfriend

lance: wat the fuck did you just say.

as soon as lance explains that nyma is not his gf and they're just bffs Keith is like ohthankgod.jpg and almost accidentally asks lance on a date before he stops himself and is like.... dumb gay bitch calm DOOOWWWNN

after that it becomes very obvious that nyma and lance r just friends at least for Keith mostly through dumb shit they say to one another

lance, sitting with hunk, pidge, and Keith at the library: hey guys wanna see something cool.

pidge: go for it

lance, clearing his throat: she think she bad but I'm better, these bitches tryna play catch up-

nyma, coming out of nowhere: SHUT THE FUCK UP WHEN I'M TALKING LIL BITCH, PUT YO HEAD DOWN WHEN YOU TALK TO A PIMP-

Nyma and Lance have self-care nights every Friday, sometimes Allura or Shay will come, and very RARELY Keith if only to spend time with Lance. also? Allura and Shay are dating, die mad about it.

They do waxing, exfoliation, mud masks, moisturizing treatments, hair masks, painting nails.... need I go on. it's basically whatever they want to do that week and when Keith reluctantly agrees to participate one day Lance goes mental

lance: OK so here's what I'm thinking. it's obvious you haven't really had a self care day for a while, which is like, fine, you do you, but holy shit are your split ends bad. I was thinking maybe I could trim them and then we could do a hair mask? Oh! A face mask would be good as well, even though you've practically got perfect skin. I'd offer to wax but for first timers the pain is a bitch to handle on the face. I'm not sure if you'd be an acrylic kind of guy but I have some black nail polish that I could put on- wow, your hands are really big compared to mine, and they're so soft, haha, isn't that crazy? so what do you think?

keith, still reeling from the fact that lance is going to touch his hair, face, and hands in the next several hours: uh......yeah..... sounds great.

nyma, sitting on lance's bed in nothing but a bra and sweatpants, smoking a blunt and readjusting her sheet mask: *long exhale* christ

Shay got Lance into the whole healthy organic food thing and in turn he got Nyma into it so they're both the bitches who drink nothing but Fiji water and almond milk and will offer you a plate of sliced cucumbers and tomatoes as a snack. we Stan a vegan couple.

keith: these are actually really good.

nyma: we usually put them on our eyes, but go off I guess.

keith:

nyma: nah I'm just fucking with you, we have different cucumbers for that

by the end of the night Keith feels like he's been cleaned by a car wash and he's dizzy from all of lance's thoughtless affection and when lance says he can stay the night because it's already late, Keith mindlessly blurts out 'only if it's with you' and nymas like.... um. Wig.

keith, laying stiff as a board on one side of lance's bed: uh

lance: oh my God you gay bitch get over here and spoon me. also kiss me on the fucking lips bro.

Nyma owns a cat named Beezer that she stole from her old roommate (rolo) but calls her beebo because quote 'beezer is so fucking lame bro i hate men'. Lance owns a Russian blue mix called, you guessed it, Blue, that he found stuck in his apartments basement only a few days after moving in. Nyma and Lance are WEAK

lance: ohhhhh look at my pretty baby sitting on the table all cute and relaxed!!! look at that baby!!! fantastic stuff!

nyma, putting her head on beebos belly: You Are So Soft And So Chubby I Would Die For You

pidge would also die for the both of them

OK I'm tired and uninspired so I'll stop here but I MAY ADD MORE LATER

May 20, 2020 pt. 2

So we’re in quarantine and I’m talking to this guy, zuko and I really like him and all and of course right when you least expect it your ex will come and slap you in the face. Everything had been good in quarantine until one day I'm with ryan at the dispo and I check my texts and would you look at it there's a text from my ex. You’re joking, if I wasn’t already in the car I would have fallen over. It’s casual but he's telling me I should come and get my jacket. I think he’s being serious about the jacket but ryan tell me other wise. I go over to hangout for the afternoon and how does this bitch sneak his way into my pants? I have no idea, we have bomb sex again. I find out he still hasn't slept with anyone else. And we go to trader joes and I’m really out there risking the rona for him. We eat and I dip. Literally got up got my stuff and left. Was he surprised, totally. So I thought I had the upper ground on the situation thinking we were just gonna be casual friends with benefits bc even though we had sex we weren’t super affectionate afterwards. Boy was I wrong. So on a saturday night I hit him up, just for sex. Thinking I would just go over for the afternoon again this boy put a spell on me. I get there we’re cool and he said he was gonna do acid when we were texting the night before but he didn't because i was going over obviously. But then he's like we could do it and I almost choke. A 8 hour trip. He's down to do with me. It was my first time and he was so cool about being there if I freaked out and he was like were gonna want to smoke and its gonna be such a cool experience. So i’m down, so down its annoying. I was just trying to be cool and I feel into the pressure for sure but I do not regret it at all. We had the absolute best time ever. He said so many out of pocket things to me and we had bomb sex. Like it was the best time ever and I left so shook because I think he wants to get back together or something. We this was 2 weeks ago and honestly I haven't heard from him since so maybe i’m wrong idk at this point. But here’s the cute shit we did. We take the acid d gets there and we smoke in the bathroom and we’re all being cool so I just thought that was how the rest of the day was gonna go. After talking for a sec we separate and say we can meet up for wings later. At this point he had already given me a kombucha bc the night before he texted me that he was gonna go to tj’s in the morning and is he should pick up food for us. I said kombucha and he said he already had some in the fridge and I didn't just get 1 I weaseled that bitch into giving me another one later. But we’re jumping ahead. So we have a snack go into the room have sex for the first time. It’s so fun and hot and after we both take a cute little shower. I washed his hair and he washed my back. We just talked in the shower and it felt exactly like old times. I hated how much I was loving it. So we come out and we’re just tripping and he takes me outside to look at the sky and some tree and he tells me a cute story about some birds and its just so out of pocket. Then I’m like laying on his bed backwards and he comes up and spiderman kisses me and we just made out for a bit. It was so fun. Then we order wings they mess up the order so there we are going to risk the rona again. And of course we’re driving there and he doesn't have a mask so there I am giving him mine bc I didn’t technically need to go inside. So i’m standing outside and I wander off to hit the pen and he's looking for me telling me to stay where he can see me. Then these guys started cat calling us and he was being so protective and he brought it up in the car as if he was my bf again taking care of me. We go back eat our wings and decide we should paint. I think before we go outside to smoke and we just had a moment. They were talking about how someone wanted to take a trip up north and as they were saying it was just found each other and said yeah we were supposed to go on that trip. We reminisced about monterey and it really took me back to my feels. All of us together made it feel like college bs again. It made me really happy. So we paint and after what felt like forever I kick him and tell him we should go back to his room at this point we had only had sex once and i wanted it one more time before the acid wore off and i could drive home. So i’m kinda rushing him and so casually he says that i can just stay. And I cave, I didn't think I was gonna stay but I was really happy not to leave. So we go back into the room and we’re picking a movie to watch and I just gave him amazing head and I knew it hit him hard. So after we get back into bed and were laying there, he has his hand over my leg and im brushing my hands through his hair and it felt so easy. So easy I even picked at some of his pimples because he loves that shit. He even asked if i could do his nose, but i had to draw the line. I told him that's pretty much gf stuff and i’m not anymore. We’re laying there I lay on top of him and the sex just comes again. So we take another shower bc we’re gross and its hot and it’s so annoyingly cute. He says he really wants donuts and we should go get them and I almost drove but we postmated instead. We go to my car and have another moment. I say its funny how we ever dated and he's so defensive saying no it makes sense to him pretty much. I get some stuff from my car and we’re walking back and looking at the downtown lights and i make him kiss me in the middle of the street. Tumblr shit and he knew i wanted it, told me that was so me. We go inside and i’m wearing his vista sweater and the donuts are there and i have no pants on and he tells me to go outside and justins there playing his games and i have no pants on. it was weird but i just had to play it off. I owned my shit, at least my ass wasn’t out. We have a cute moment with the donuts I get this cute ass pic of him and at some point im laying on top of him and he closes his eyes and tells me im probably the only person he would know with his eyes closed. And we couldn't stop laughing because he was all touching my face and if that didn't give me corona then what will. And we laughed and laughed. We also could not stop laughing about trying to bribe the person who just needs to process that one paper so we could get our stimulus checks. He just made me laugh the whole time. So we eat our donuts and I con my way into sleeping on his side of the bed. He actually let me, he never does. I always sleep against the wall. I wakeup, he goes to the bathroom per usual and when he comes back to bed im on the other side and he comes up behind me and says this is all i ask for and spoons me and spoons my hand, waffles it! When we broke up cuddling was not something he ever wanted to do bc it was kinda drawing the line but I always made him do it a little and he was the one asking this time. I also think I fell asleep in his arms. But I cannot even remember falling asleep. We have sex again and take another shower and it’s annoying at this point how perfect we’re being. He gets ready for work and even tells me we should have woken up earlier and smoked and he even almost called out of work to stay in bed all day. Kinda implied with me but idk. He also told me he's gonna renew his disney pass. For why?! He only went with me a couple times last year bc I’m like one of the only people he's goes to land with so i thought that was sus. Are you telling me you want to go again in the future. At this point I just had this feeling that he was trying to get me back or something. He was acted so differently this time. Like he was everything good that we ever were when we were together. I left so shocked but like I said it’s been 2 weeks so I’m just emotionally fucked up I guess.
