𝔸𝕝𝕨𝕒𝕪𝕤 ℍ𝕒𝕧𝕖 (𝔸𝕝𝕨𝕒𝕪𝕤 𝕎𝕚𝕝𝕝)

or Lance told the team about what he wanted to do once the dust had settled.

(here)

When Lance spoke, he looked at all of them with a gentleness that made Keith internally panicked. (It felt like it was a warning.)

“I’m thinking of quitting.”

Keith was used to silence - especially when he had been living alone in a shack in the middle of nowhere for a long period.

The silence that had descended this time, however, was sharp and brute, as if everyone was punched and forced to do nothing but hold back the sounds of pain from leaving their lips.

or James pointed out the obvious times when the red and blue paladins were in their own little world.

(here)

Unexpectedly, James placed a hand on Lance’s shoulder, lightly pushing the paladin aside, and Lance had to try very hard to not stop the man from walking past him and towards Keith.

Keith, who was wiping away sweat on his face with his shirt, focused and was in his own world the way he always did whenever he was training.

(The sight was not rare for Lance. It was a sight the red paladin had gotten to see almost frequently, especially ever since he became the black paladin’s right-hand man.

Lance would rather have that sight all to himself - and reserved to only a select few people that Lance deemed safe.)

ℂ𝕠𝕞𝕗𝕠𝕣𝕥𝕚𝕟𝕘 (𝕒𝕟𝕕 ℂ𝕝𝕚𝕟𝕘𝕚𝕟𝕘)

or Keith and Lance talked about the real reason why Keith chose Lance during the Feud.

(here)

“Say, team leader. You’ve been really generous with your words and honesty today.” Lance started.

Keith was obviously familiar with Lance’s scheming grin; hence the immediate way he scrunched up his nose and pursed his lips skeptically at his right-hand man.

“That’s-“

“So how about you set the record straight and tell me your real reason for why you chose me? You know, in the Feud thingy. The one where you lied and said you didn’t want to be stuck for eternity with me.” Lance purposely cut the black paladin off, batting his eyelashes excessively while Keith locked up, looking embarrassed.

𝕋𝕖𝕟𝕥𝕒𝕥𝕚𝕧𝕖 𝔸𝕡𝕠𝕝𝕠𝕘𝕪 (𝕒𝕟𝕕 ℍ𝕖𝕤𝕚𝕥𝕒𝕟𝕥 𝕋𝕠𝕦𝕔𝕙)

or Lance addressed what he said to Keith when they were stranded in space and said things they didn’t mean. (Perhaps Lance had underestimated how well Keith had gotten to know him, too.) (inspired a lot by this thread)

(here)

“You haven’t talked,” Keith said simply, hesitant for a few moments before scooting a little and patting an empty space on the bed to signal for the other to sit.

“I haven’t talked? What do you mean? I’ve talked all night long! Wait a tick- you actually like me talking a lot, don’t you?!”

“You did talk all night long. But you didn’t talk about what you actually wanted to talk about, did you?”

For a fleeting moment, Lance tensed, but the moment passed by as quickly as it had happened, his shoulders going slack before a somewhat resigned yet amused expression made itself known on his face.

“You’ve gotten sharper, samurai. I didn’t know you could get sharper.”

Something in Lance’s voice was tugging at Keith’s heartstrings - in the worst way possible.

𝔸𝕥 𝕒 ℂ𝕣𝕠𝕤𝕤𝕣𝕠𝕒𝕕𝕤 (𝕒𝕟𝕕 ℍ𝕦𝕣𝕥𝕚𝕟𝕘)

or Keith subconsciously cares and wants to do something for Lance, but instead ends up hurting his right-hand man.

(here)

Lance had made it a habit to coax him to join the parades whenever they managed to get some time to themselves. Sometimes, the red paladin would bother Keith during training; other times, the red paladin would even go as far as to bother the black paladin in his room - all because he wanted to persuade Keith to join them.

“We can’t really form Voltron without you, Keith. You know, since you are an essential part of the team. Irreplaceable and all that.” Lance had said numerous times, with varying sentences and words.

The red paladin had even gone as far as to walk Keith to the space pod for the mission the black paladin had just finished. Just because he wanted to make Keith promise that he would be on time for their parade.

Too bad. Keith was not really good at keeping promises.

“Welcome back, cheater.”

𝕊𝕥𝕣𝕦𝕘𝕘𝕝𝕚𝕟𝕘 (𝕒𝕟𝕕 𝕋𝕣𝕪𝕚𝕟𝕘)

or the new red paladin and black paladin struggle to adjust to each other.

(here)

“Allura! Turn off the robots! Keith and I were talking!”

There was an acknowledging scoff from Keith, followed by a murmur of ‘of course it’s Allura’ as the black paladin kept on swiftly swiping the approaching robots, going as far as to have covered for Lance a couple of times. (Even without meaning to, Keith still somehow managed to flaunt his skills.)

As if prepared for Lance’s order, Allura deadpanned.

“Hunk, Pidge, and I have decided that we have grown tired of dealing with your ‘talking’. Properly talk through this chaos, and maybe the two of you would finally meet common ground that will guarantee that we will not be subjected to the two of you arguing anymore.”

Lance squawked, disbelieved, and Keith had grunted, picking up the red paladin’s slack when Lance had irresponsibly dropped his guard.

(here)

“In a couple of years, I am planning to form- join something. Knights of the Round Table.

You should give that a try, Lance.” the stranger said, a smile on his lips directed at the black hedgehog.

“And why should I believe a word you say?” Lancelot questioned, tone daring.

Once again, the blue hedgehog merely looked intrigued.

“Because, Lance, being a knight would mean you can lawfully land an attack on me without being accused of treason. After all, you have been refraining from punching me at numerous points in time for such a short duration of our meeting.

A tempting offer, is it not?” the stranger almost drawled mischievously, a taunting smile on his lips.

‘Treason’? Who does this guy think he is?

or how Lancelot falls in love. (’inspiration’)

(here)

“Uh… Lancelot, I don’t. I think I’m missing something. We’re just in a storage room hiding from the other knights.

If anyone wants to blame you for helping me, I’ll stand up for you, and use my title to back you up. You know, like how I used my title to get you to get me away from Percival and Galahad. Plus, what’s so weird about us being in a storage room? We’re just hiding.” Sonic said, tone seeming to be leaning on ‘comforting’.

Still, Sonic started talking once again, something along the lines of ‘should I make a new rule to allow hide and seek in the castle and make it annual?’, but Lancelot’s confusion was getting the best of him, and all it took was a shaky exhale from himself for Sonic to stop talking.

Sonic felt the shaky exhale from the black hedgehog against his lips, and somehow it looked like it immediately clicked for him.

or Knuckles wanted to train his disciple, Wade Whipple, and along with him, an amnesiac black hedgehog came to help - somewhat.

(here)

“We are acquaintances. That's all there is to it.”

“What?! Are you being serious? Shads is gonna be so sad when he finds out you only think of him as an acquaintance! He holds you in high regard, you know? He talked to me about you all the time ever since you guys got to know each other!”

Immediately, Knuckles turned to look at his blue roommate, a skeptical furrow in his eyes even if he asked what he thought of anyway.

“And what does Shadow think of me, hedgehog?” the black hedgehog’s name rolled off his tongue as if he had known and used that name for a long time.

A baffled expression graced the blue hedgehog’s face, before he scoffed in disbelief with a prominent scowl on his lips.

“How come you call him ‘Shadow’ and all I got is ‘hedgehog’?!”

Does it matter?

or an experiment gone wrong lead to Sonic travelling to another universe, and with this new adventure he found himself in, he discovered more things about himself: a series of epiphanies. (rough summary)

(here)

All Sonic could muster was a nod. But Sonic was thankful for nodding because the smile Shadow gave him, soft and small and almost shy, was everything.

Okay. Yeah. Sonic may have a tiny crush on this Shadow.

But.

But what if Sonic’s in love with this Shadow and not his?

Falling in love twice with the same person is no way possible - right?

But as Shadow snickered whenever Sonic made a mistake before correcting him, as Shadow challenged him for the most trivial things during their dance back at the party to fire Sonic up, as Shadow chided him for always failing to tie a tie correctly in the comfort of the black hedgehog’s room after yet a short dancing session in it…

Sonic came to realise that perhaps he’s much more in love with his Shadow than he thought he was.

or being a hero sometimes is about finding a different way to express himself - it was almost subtle enough for others to miss the signs.

That night, when both Tok Aba and Boboiboy returned home, the old man stopped his grandson for a moment to ask:

“How are you feeling?”

Boboiboy didn’t miss a beat.

“What kind of question is that, Tok Aba? Of course I’m fine!”

As much as that answer was supposed to reassure Tok Aba, it had the opposite effect.

Looks like Tok Aba would have to talk to his grandson’s friends and ask for their help.

A shift. At the cafe.

Sonic wanted to laugh.

“Laugh all you want, but I have found myself a purpose here. Stepping out there and directly interacting with you will risk G.U.N to find out about my current coordinates.

Fortunately for you, the fox is very hard to say no to, and…

…and you have saved me once. I’m merely returning the favor.” Shadow said, still sitting rooted on his chair and still keeping his eyes on the blue hedgehog.

You didn’t save me because we’re friends?

“…we were allies. Know a lot about each other’s past and what each other had gone through. Can relate to each other in a lot of things - including grief and power.

…friends… maybe we are friends.”

That hesitant admittance alone made Sonic feel like he was on cloud nine, for some reason.

Recalling that picture once again, Sonic felt himself feeling something akin to mourning.

No; this isn’t who Shadow is.

He had seen the black hedgehog at his best through a mere picture, and he was nothing like the one standing before Sonic just a few seconds ago, thirst for revenge so strong he was losing sight of who he was, stuck in a fog he couldn’t find the exit of without his guiding light.

As much as Sonic wanted to help him through the fog, the marble turned blackhole was quick to be the center of all of his attention.

He can do this.

He’ll help Shadow - because that’s what heroes do.

“Are we making a wager here, hedgehog?” Shadow asked, suddenly coming to his attention at how hard his heart was racing compared to the peacefulness his mind was in.

The grin on Sonic’s lips stretched further, and it was suddenly brought to Shadow’s attention how even more attractive someone could be with confidence. (A confident Rouge was someone Shadow had gotten used to. Sonic, however, was new.)

“Is it really a wager if I know I’m going to win?” The blue hedgehog questioned right back, leaning in and prompting Shadow to subconsciously turn so that he was facing the blue hedgehog.

Face to face and noses brushing, it came to Shadow’s attention that he was really, really, screwed.
