klance flower shop/tattoo artist au where lance is furiously researching how to insult keith in “flower language”. pls 🥺

I present to you: Lance trying to insult Keith with flowers-

-and Keith not even knowing “flower language” is a thing and completely misunderstanding his intentions lol. Those are bluebonnets Keith’s giving btw, and he definitely picked them off the side of the road

Blue is a stray cat Lance has been feeding, and she is a traitor that keeps crossing the street for pets whenever Keith goes on lunch break

Let him talk, Keith lmfao

too close

[jiveyuncle]

You know the fixation is bad when predictive text immediately suggests “Keith” and “Lance” as the first suggested words anytime you start a new sentence.

Why, yes, phone, I do want to add Keith and Lance to my grocery list. My partner will know exactly what isle to pick them up at.

Yes, I am aware I talk about them a lot - you’re right, I do want to start yet another new note about them.

Lmfao send help

Random stuff from a Vampire!Keith canonverse fic I’ve had sitting half-finished in my drafts for the last year and a half. Sharing the art bc idk if it’ll ever see the light of day

another dream to return home simply over

My school library was throwing away a bunch of old, falling-apart books. Made this as an example and had my students give them new life by making blackout poetry out of them.

Love this one 💕

to breathe in this mirage by @existwound on AO3

Lance is married, for fuck’s sake, and Keith being weirdly comfortable with him is not helping at all – not in the slightest.

The light reflects on a piece of silver metal on Keith’s hand as his fingers play with Lance’s.

He zeroes in on it, his breath catching in his throat.

It’s a thin silver ring that sits nicely on his left ring finger, adorned with an even thinner golden band around it, perfectly matching, and mirroring the ring that Lance found on his bathroom counter this morning.

Oh, no way. No, no, no, no. Absolutely not.

This has to be some kind of cruel joke.

There is no way that the person he’s married to in the future is Keith.

or: Lance unwillingly takes one for the team and wakes up ten years in the future.

Current fixation x old fixation

To me, they're sleep deprived college students who never catch a break between essays and world saving. Every night is an all-nighter. Pidge catches them in the dorm lobby in the mornings, slumped against each other, laptops open to the cursor blinking on blank Google docs. She brings them coffee. She secretly figured out their identities ages ago, but they still haven't figured out why they just so happen to begrudgingly stumble into the lobby to sit on the same couch at ungodly hours of the moring. Both are too stubborn to find a different room to study in. Hunk, bless him, makes sure they have a decent breakfast before they rush off to class each morning.

Nearly every night in college, I would visit with my buddies and splitscreen Halo deathmatch with them. I didn't have an xbox account, so they set me up and the auto-generated username thing spit out JiveUnicycle. It can be difficult to read usernames quickly mid-game, so one of my buddies misread it and shouted, "Dammit, JiveyUncle!" when I killed him. The rest of my friends thought it was a funny mistake and started calling me it, too, as a joke, but then the name actually stuck. I eventually just changed my tag to match. That's also why my signature has the unicycle at the end - as a nod to the original name.

I do laugh and wonder sometimes if people picture me as some eccentric old man because of it.

USERNAME LORE GIVE IT TO ME NOW YOU ALL

Figure they’re all messy af and leave their jackets all over the place, so they’ll just pick up and use whichever one is around whenever they get cold. Eventually they all end up in each others jackets at some point

Lance is alright with cuddling for warmth

Hey! Just found that physical fanfic, and got super excited. Planning on printing one of my fav klance fics as well, but I have a question - What did you use to format it?? When I download it straight from ao3 and upload the file, it makes the book extremely large. I’m talkin 8.5 x 11”, and I really don’t want a book that large. I’m trying to figure it out, as my fic is also from ao3. Any tips would be very much appreciated!!

Hello! It’s cool that you’re looking into giving this a shot!! I’m big on collecting physical media, so I’m always overjoyed when an author gives me the green light to do this with a story <3 I've had a few asks like this so I'll just kinda answer the formatting specific questions here.

Before I get started, this is just a reminder that anyone attempting this should always ask permission before printing any fics/art that isn’t yours! A lack of response is not permission - only a “yes” is permission. Someone else having permission is not you having permission. Always respect your creators by letting them keep control over their work - it’s the least you can do for the people who have freely given you something you love so much!

This is just a bit long and is largely technical, so I’ll leave the answer below the Read More.

Okay. The way I format a fic is through Google Docs, so you'll need to have a basic understanding of how to navigate that application (ex. insert page breaks, alignment, indenting, etc). To keep this from becoming a How to GoogleDocs thing, just know that in my copy all titles and headers are Georgia size 15.5 font and all notes and body text are Veranda size 9.5 font (though I should have probably made it size 9 font as it turned out just a tad larger than I anticipated (**edit: I have since printed another fic at size 9 font and it was perfect size!)). This is not what typical printed books do, but I wanted to keep things as close to reading on AO3 as possible to preserve my experience, therefore indentations and paragraph spacing reflects the website rather than that of a standard book edit. Below shows how that translates into the physical copy. For the sake of consistency with previous asks, I will continue to use The Raven Boys by Maggie Steifvater as the standard book format and there, nestled against his pulse by hiuythn as the printed fanfic so you can compare the two.

And since you asked a specific formatting question, I’ll show a quick step-by-step of how to change page settings to match that of a book below. *Keep in mind, books come in different dimensions, so you can easily change this to other sizes if you want a smaller/larger print.

I don’t have a computer, so the following is all done from my iPad. The placement of settings may be a bit different, but all of the settings will still be available on a computer. First, find this menu.

Navigate to “Page setup.”

Choose your “Paper size.” I set mine to “5.5 x 8.5.”

From that same “Page set up” menu, customize your margins. I set mine to 0.5 on top and bottom and 0.75 on the sides so that the text doesn’t get too close to the inner part of the page when printed.

And now you’re ready to roll! Hope this helps!

Life update:

I had my first baby a month ago!!!

I’m not leaving social media completely, but time is definitely limited so posts will probably be far apart and my engagement nearly nonexistent.

Anyway, thanks for the years of love and support. These accounts have helped me meet so many incredible people and become close with others that I consider to be good friends, and for that, I am forever grateful.

Lots of love to everyone for making this experience possible ❤️

Wishing my Secret Santa match @existwound a very Happy Holiday with post-canon Klance with a long-haired Keith 🥰

.

Drawing that flower in Lance’s back pocket and the petals flying by made me tear up okay 😭 healing and moving on while still remembering and loving is something so powerful. Cheers to the loves we lost, second chances, and all the people we meet that make us who we are.
