#so allura having PINk markings?

naur seriously can we talk about how allura was even like 'the lions were made to be piloted by you and you alone'referring to the fact they are the only five people in the entire multiverse to have pure quintessence corresponding to the colors oftheir lions....
if one paladin is MIA then that lion should be inactive, benched. you dont simply play musical chairs with the lions. if it waa that easy then ANYONE could be the paladins at ANY time and theres no reason for the human paladins to be there at all especially if they dont want to be. but no the human paladins are NEEDED or else keith and allura would have no problem with pidge leaving in the first two episodes. nor would they mind if lance went home. but they DO mind. they PREVENT pidge from leaving and they make lance believe going back to earth isnt an option at all--that it isnt even on their iternary.
So no. i refuse to acknowledge the lion switching as canon.
#i feel like i should also bring up my headcanon that altean markings correlate to quintessence colors.#this is why lance has PURE blue meanwhile coran has teal.#coincidentally coran also embodies characteristics of the green and blue lion (loyal compassionate curious eccentric)#so allura having PINk markings?#she aint the blue paladin.#i know that theory falls apart quickly when you look at alfor--the red paladin who has blue markings#but still#it also makes zero sense to have the only person who can create a wormhole and PILOT THE ENTIRE CASTLESHIP be#in a lion fighting a battle that they could die in any second--therefore stranding everyone who needs the castleship to escape#allura being the blue paladin would-in reality- lead directly to the galra winning the war.#it only takes five seconds to put her and blue out of commission. simply fire an ion canon or two directly at her and then the other#paladins + coran are stranded and completely helpless.#after that it would be a piece of cake for the galra to capture every single lion and their paladins.#from that point they could go into the castleship and go through any + all information about rebels#the coalition and the blades of marmora. all because allura wanted to be RVEN MORE in the spotlight than she already is#the rntire war against the galra would be irreparably destroyed. the galra wpuld win flat out to the point#that no amount of rebellion would even make a dent in their power.#meanwhile if they simply just stayed in their proper lions and fought without shiro (with allura still manning the castle)#they would take lots of blows and it would be very hard-but at least they would win.#voltron#rant

Okay! So!
Part one of my MHA VoltronLD thing uhhhh yeah.
Life Force: Allura is able to use the surrounding energy of life to heal, shield, and attack, usually in the form of a light-whip or spear (her bayard form and staff). The life energy can be hot if too concentrated, causing burns. Excessive usage causes regular quirk drawbacks like exhaustion and headaches.
Likes: Organization, Pink, and her uncle Coran
Dislikes: The current hero system, mutation quirks, and excessive flirting
Allura’s father, Alfor, used to be the HPSC President before Zarkon took over. Allura still got her position, but is suspicious of Zarkon’s plans for the HPSC. She is especially worried about Honerva’s “Young Heroes Program” and what that could be. Coran, bless his soul, has backed Allura for every decision, but things are getting tense. Allura fears her uncle could get fired if he continues to speak out in her name. That’s not even to mention the secretive work of Lotor…
The markings on her face, wrists, collar, and ankles are from her quirk. Her father had similar marks, but only on his face as he did not have nearly as powerful a quirk as her. Her ears are a small mutation from her mother’s side. Mutations are complicated to her, as she has a few herself, but her coworkers (Zarkon, Honerva, Lotor, etc.) are all rather… dismissive, snide, and rude with her, making it difficult to see that not all mutant quirked people are so short coming.

I'm so sorry to hear you were in an accident im glad you are alive and feeling okay again <3<3
I'd love to send you a lotura prompt, hopefully it lifts your spirits to be back on that sweet ship.
How about Lotor and Allura talking about weapons? (i.e. Like how Allura prefers a staff and Lotors sword designs (like the one he was first shown with) )
Hey, good to hear from you and thanks for your super kind note!! I'm doing a little better each day and am excited to get back to regular routines! While I was on hold over the phone about paperwork today, I managed to exercise my brain with the prompt you gave me! <3
Staff vs. Sword
Emperor Lotor leans against a wall, crossing his arms and quirking a slim, white eyebrow at the princess before him. “Surely, you jest with me,” he murmurs. “A staff again?”
Princess Allura beams, and she grabs her favorite staff from the blunted practice weapons with a solid grip, fingers tight. With a quick flick of her wrist, she spins it and sets the end solidly on the ground. “My bayard for Blue Lion also turns into a whip,” she says nonchalantly, “but that seems entirely unfair to use against you, as it produces an electric shock.”
“Ah, yes.” His eyes crinkle, his slit pupils dilating with softness. He adds dryly, “Because we do not already create enough sparks on the courts.”
She brushes back her long, thick braid and waggles her eyebrows. “You said it, not me.” And then she pokes his chest plate with the end of her staff. “Do tell me you’re not afraid of a second round after I defeated you.”
“And nearly caused an intergalactic incident,” he says, voice halted. “The training grounds are intended for practicing the art of combat—not the art of catching one’s opponent off-guard with a kiss.”
With a giggle, Allura pulls the staff back, her Altean markings glowing a bright pink. “Yes, well, we Alteans have a saying that all’s fair in love and war. Now, pick your weapon, dear emperor, so that I may defeat you once more. And do choose something other than a sword this time—at least mix it up for me?”
Lotor eyes her before grabbing a blunted sword from the wall, inspecting its balance. His long fingers grip the hilt tightly. “A sword is the best extension of a warrior’s will,” he declares, raising his chin with a petulant chin. “It is simple. It is efficient. It is my favorite weapon.”
Allura sighs dramatically at him. “It does not have quite the—” she waves her hand—“the impact of a staff, though.”
He raises the silver sword to her. “The staff is an impact weapon,” he says dryly. “You simply seek to showcase your Altean strength to the Galra who prowl these courts, and that is why you prefer it as of late."
“Tish tosh,” she says, planting her feet properly on the training mat and eyeing him with an increased wariness. She knows Lotor likes to strike unexpectedly. “I also happen to like the way training robots crumple to bits beneath a staff. It relieves the stress I feel after a large conference with intergalactic leaders.”
A tick of silence stretches between them.
And then in a blur, Lotor races toward her, slashing down.
She blocks with the staff and swings, and he ducks smoothly before stepping back, flipping the sword in his hand.
He paces the mat, the overhead lights capturing the glow of his eyes like a predator in the dark wilderness. “Poor Princess Allura,” he teases. “All the power in the universe, and yet you fear the peace we have wrought together, instead longing for means of violence. Are you certain you are not of Galran blood somewhere in that long ancestry of yours?”
Alura’s voice strains as she circles him as well, resetting her staff. “I can’t think of a single species that doesn’t enjoy a rough tumble now and again, in a safe, non-war environment. Why, the humans even have something called, um—” Her concentration breaks as she pauses, snapping her fingers. “Um, wrestling. And something called rugby. And then they have a very large, worldwide competition for their various violent sports, called the Olympics.”
Lotor pauses.
His slit pupils widen in curiosity of other cultures. “Olympics? Is that similar to a Kral Zera?”
“Somewhat,” she nods, “but instead of choosing a world leader by, um, killing everyone, these tournaments are for medals that they wear around their necks and then bite in front of cameras. And no one dies generally.”
He lunges again, and in a blur, wrenches the staff away from her hands and presses her up against a wall.
Allura squeaks, eyes wide.
His nose is inches from her own, his breath a hot puff against her face. “How very curious.”
Her breath stalls as her cheeks heat hard enough to radiate to him. “Um, y-yes.”
Lotor’s wide mouth splits as he whispers against her mouth, “Fortunately for you, princess, I’ve no intent to fight you truly, or you would already be dead with your silly staff. And if it were these Olympics, you would have no medal to bite.”
Face flushed, her eyes narrow to slits, and before Lotor can avoid it, she hooks her ankle against his and unbalances him. Surprised claws protract from his hands, gripping into her practice armor and his eyes widen.
And the two royals fall in a pile of limbs upon the mat, with Allura sprawled on top of a stunned Lotor, his sword clattering to the mat beside them.
“Oh, no,” she says with a triumphant giggle, hands planted over his chest plate. Her curly flyaways are an angelic halo around her face. “You lowered your weapon but did not fully secure me, so I still win.”
Lotor grumps beneath her, his lavender cheeks flushing as he grips her forearms.
And despite Galra leadership watching the courts and murmuring with gossip in the far distance, Lotor softens. His rough, calloused thumbs stroke a pink marking along her bare forearm. “Best two out of three, then? I promise to secure you fully next time and cause another scandal for it.”
Allura leans forward, eyes sparkling. “Very well, Emperor Lotor. You’re on.”
#Voltron#Lotura#Lotor#Allura#writing in present tense bc it's all my brain wants to do rn idk why ahhh#thank you for the note and the prompt!#This was a fun exercise for the day!#yeeee it does lift the spirits to get back to fun hobbies!#I was off work for a long time too so I'm trying to slowly ramp back up on that side of things too#would rather write lotura fic tho lol#thank you again! <3#super curious if anyone notices any other changes in my writing style since the accident#I'm still having trouble remembering words sometimes#lotura really challenges me tho bc they talk so posh all the time XD#my doctor said try to challenge myself so here we go lol!

“Ooooooh, that looks interesting!”
Keith groans, as loudly and dramatically as he can. He tries to emulate Shiro every time he was finally forced to actually do his job and mark student papers after weeks of procrastinating.
(He’s pretty successful, if he does say so himself.)
“Please,” he begs the red paladin, yanking on his sleeve to dissuade him from turning into the store. It does nothing.
“C’mon,” Lance says, ignoring his agony. “One last store, okay?”
“You’re a dirty liar. You said that two hours ago.”
Lance reaches back blindly to pat Keith patronizingly on the head, missing by a mile and smacking him on the face instead. Keith has to bat his hands away. “There, there. You once tried to fight a ten thousand year old zombie dictator with your bare hands. You will survive.”
“Fistfighting Zarkon wasn’t nearly this painful,” Keith grumbles, but lets Lance pull him into the store, anyway.
God, he’s fucking whipped. He’s embarrassed of himself. Truly.
He dutifully takes the basket Lance hands him (on top of his twelve other shopping bags, full to the brim, Keith might add) and holds it out whenever Lance gasps excitedly and swipes something off a shelf or a hangar.
“Allura would look great in this skirt!”
“Wouldn’t Pidge look adorable with this hair bow?”
“Oh, Hunk has been looking for this!”
“Gasp!” (He actually says the word gasp, out loud, with his mouth.) “Hair chalk! Maybe Shiro will let me dye his floof!”
“You’re ridiculous,” Keith tells him. He sounds so fond that a random passer-by raises an amused eyebrow at him, which makes Keith want to melt into the floor. “Like an irritating wind-up toy.”
There. That should cover his tracks.
Lance pauses for a moment, turning to face Keith and squinting at him. For a brief, foolish moment, Keith feels something like hope — maybe this horrible torture will come to an end!
“Didn’t you collect wind-up toys when you were a kid?” he questions, head tilted. “You had like four boxes of them in your shack. I stole a little stegosaurus.”
Keith opens his mouth, then shuts it again. His ears burn.
“First of all, you have a kleptomania problem,” he points out, instead of stop knowing so much about me and let me live in peace. “Second of all, you are a snoop and I hate you.”
Lance snorts. “Yeah, yeah.”
Keith is about to say something else, something scathing, something to make him the clear winner of this dumbass, not-real argument, but then Lance absentmindedly links his arm through Keith’s and pulls him close as he strolls down an aisle full of puzzles and games.
Keith’s throat goes dry. Lance smells faintly of something floral, sweet.
Briefly, he squeezes his eyes shut and prays for strength. It will do nothing, because the universe likes to put Keith in horrible situations and laugh at him, but he tries anyway.
They walk in mostly silence for a the next little while, interrupted only by Lance’s quiet humming and occasional points of interest. He’s agonizingly slow to walk through the store — Keith is sure at this point that he’s doing it on purpose, no one likes shopping for this long, he’s definitely punishing Keith for drinking the last of the red juice packs — but perks up excitedly when he sees an aisle lined with jars on one side, and various tubes and pallets on the other.
“Look! Look look look! They have a skincare and makeup section!”
Keith turns his head to the sky. “Why do you despise me,” he mutters to it.
He is never getting out of this goddamn store.
“Come on, you drama queen,” Lance says, dragging him towards the first shelf of various products. “Shiro and Pidge keep stealing all my products because they are horrible people who don’t know how to ask for things. I need to replenish. Come help!”
He yanks Keith forward. Yelping, Keith stumbles after him. “I’m coming, you goober, yeesh! Ease up a bit.”
Smirking, Lance ignores him. He reaches for a shiny pink pot, unscrewing the lid and taking a sniff. He makes a face. “Blegh. Here.”
Keith indulgently smells it and almost gags. “That smells the way final exams feel.”
He trails after Lance for the next fifteen minutes, smelling weirdo products and laughing himself to tears at Lance’s various reactions. He has the pleasure of making Lance laugh, too, with all his creative descriptions; making his brown eyes light up and his bright smile making Keith’s heart do dangerous things.
He’s so fucked. He’s so fucked!
“Oh, hey, I have an idea. Close your eyes.”
It doesn’t even occur to Keith not to listen. That’s the embarrassing part. Lance tells him to close his eyes and immediately his world goes dark.
He feels something approach his face.
“Smell this,” Lance says.
Keith grimaces. “Can we be done with the nasty smells?”
“This one isn’t nasty, promise. It’s lip gloss. Guess the flavour.”
Keith hesitantly leans forward and inhales. To his surprise, the scent is pleasant, familiar.
“Mint?”
“That one was too easy,” Lance says. “Keep your eyes closed, smell this one.”
Less wary now, Keith does. This one is even better than before.
“Oh, oranges!”
Lance grumbles to himself. Keith hears rustling, like Lance is digging through something, and then a sharp intake of breath.
Keith peeks an eye open. “Everything okay?”
“Close your eyes again,” Lance orders. Keith does, hesitantly, noting that Lance’s expression is very particular, in a way he can’t place.
“Guess this one,” he says quietly.
Keith does. He frowns, tiling his head in confusion.
“D’you give up?”
Lance sounds closer. Much closer, actually. Keith’s breaths get heavier.
“No.”
Lance says nothing for a moment, and Keith is tempted to open his eyes. He feels Lance get closer, feels the heat of his breath on his cheeks. He’s still for a moment, and Keith’s heart pounds as he breathes rapidly, strangely familiar scent of the lipgloss getting closer and closer.
“…You want a hint?”
Keith nods rapidly. The smell gets even stronger, and then something warm and sticky presses against his lips.
Lance is kissing him.
He pulls back as quickly as he leaned in, but not far. The scent of the lip gloss is still cloying, intermingling with the scent of Lance, sweet and fruity.
“I don’t think I’ve ever tasted it before,” Keith rasps. He cracks open his eyes, barely, and finds them level with Lance’s nose, close to those shiny lips.
Lance hums. “It’s sweet pear.”
“Oh.” That makes sense. “It’s nice.”
Lance leans in again, and Keith does too, like a magnet drawn to Lance’s polarity. “Wanna taste again?”
As if Keith would ever say no to that.

Altean redesigns
It's been actual months since I said I would share my Altean redesigns, and I'm finally getting around to doing it! So sorry to leave y'all hanging.
SO! Just like last time, my friend @adaphyl and I have been working on a Voltron rewrite, and it started with me yapping about the Alteans and how I wished the show had done more with them. So I redesigned/rewrote Alteans while Ada redesigned/rewrote the Galra.
There's more I'd like to do with their designs and maybe revamp, but these were the ideas I had back when we started this rewrite (nov 11, 2023).
So to start, I only did Allura, Coran, and Romelle, I'll eventually get around to drawing more but for now this is what we've got. There's a lot of lore I've written for Altea but it's just too much to get into here, so I'll condense it to the important bits.
I remembered in the show Allura mentioning Alteans were a "chameleon-like species", and it always annoyed me how that only translated to them having shapeshifting abilities. I never understood why they were just elves. So, I actually made them more chameleon like.
They have markings along their body, the color indicating sex like with actual lizards (female Alteans have darker markings while male Alteans have brighter colors), their skin tones have a green undertone, larger lizard-like eyes, small horns on their head, as well as three toes and fingers on each hand/foot. (There are also albino Alteans who have less markings, and regardless of sex their markings tend to be red or pink, but that's not really relevant to this post... perhaps a future post though...)
I also imagine that Alteans, because they're a lizard like people, get their energy from the sun. Because of this they worship a sun goddess. You'll see lots of gold or sun symbols throughout their clothing because of this.
However, you'll notice that Romelle looks a bit different. She's a special case, coming from the colony and not Altea proper. Because the Colony was about a few thousand years after Altea's destruction, a lot of culture was lost. Lotor, having not grown up on Altea or learning the culture, had to piece together what he could. In our rewrite Honerva did come from an alternate reality, and in her reality Alteans are a bit different.
Alt!Alteans get their energy from the moon rather than the sun, they worship a moon goddess. Lotor when building the colony wasn't sure which reality did which, and so the colony worships both goddesses. Romelle also wears a mix of masculine and feminine clothing that was common on Altea, again more of Lotor just not being entirely sure + thousands of years of culture slowly being lost. Romelle also has sharper teeth because of thousands of years spent spread out throughout the galaxy, Alteans began to evolve to adapt to different enviroments. (Also you'll notice Romelle's bright markings, I hc Romelle to be a trans woman so :) )
#idk how people will feel about these redesigns#but I like them so that's all that matters#I like to think Allura cut her hair after destroying Alfor's hologram in crystal vendom#I'll draw that one day but for now have this#voltron#voltron legendary defender#voltron fanart#voltron rewrite#vld#voltron au#fix it au#fix it fic#voltron sucks so my friend and i are fixing it#princess allura#vld allura#vld coran#vld romelle#beri yaps#beri art

Trying to think up a Voltron/Fairy Tail Au[IE it's just Voltron but with Fairy Tail Magic/World Building[minus the oversexualization] because...I don't like crossover fics where the characters actually interact, its just not my thing.]
Shiro would definitely be a [2nd Gen]Dragon Slayer, either Steel, Blade, or Darkness, leaning more towards Darkness.
Keith would 100% be an Requip Mage[The Knight type], with a Fire Attribute.
Lance, of course, would also be a Requip Mage[but with The Gunner type], paired with him being a Marksman, maybe with an Ice, Snow, or Water Attribute.
Earth Magic for Hunk[possibly with Giant Magic]
See now Pidge is hard because Archive Magic would work so well for her, but so would Plant Magic, or Wood Maker Magic.
Allura, I would have to say a S-Class Transformation and Healing Mage, possibly with some knowlage of Illusion Magic[cause she's cool like that].
I feel like Coran wouldn't be a Mage, but would more help run the Guild alongside the Guild Master, but if he were a Mage I'd go with Clone Magic.
They'd be called the Voltron Guild and their Guild mark would be a boxy looking lion head. Shiros Guild Mark would be on his [human]shoulder in black, Lance's on the back of his right hand in blue, Pidge's on the left side of her neck in green, Hunk's on his right forearm in yellow, Allura's on her left shoulder in pink, Coran's on his right rib cage in a sea glass green color, and Keith's on the right side of his ribcage[or on his right shoulder blade] in a deep violet[or red] color.
Aside from them, characters like, Matt, and Romelle would also be in the Guild just as like...background/semi-background characters[like Gajeel, Levy, and Mira].
Other Guilds would include other organizations like the Marmora Guild, Garrison Guild, Empire Guild[Dark], Generals Guild, and the Rebel Guild, stuff like that.
However, If I wanted to go wild with it and give the Empire Guild a reason to go after the Voltron Guild specifically; I'd make everyone a Slayer.
Shiro would be a 2nd Gen Dragon Slayer still[again either Steel, Blade, or Drakness]
Hunk would be a 1st or 3rd Gen Ground Dragon Slayer
Lance the Sea King Dragon Slayer, either 1st or 3rd Gen
Pidge would be a 2nd Gen Forest Dragon Slayer
Allura would be 1st Gen Light Dragon Slayer
But Keith's where it gets fun because I'd want him to be a God Slayer[Either Flame God, Lunar God, or Star God], but he keeps that as a secret and plays it off as Dragon Slayer Magic so he doesn't stand out OR he didn't know for sure he was a God Slayer until he was told/found out a little later[similar to how he wasn't 100% sure he was Galra until Marmora]
While this second option is fun in terms of just being OP, I like the first idea better, since there's no real overlap[Keith and Lance kinda overlap as Requip Mages but they're two different strings]. It gives them all a more diverse skill set, and individuality, and they still have strong magic, it just feels more balanced.
The Guild Mark would look something like this:
#voltron legendary defenders#voltron legendary defenders au#fairy tail voltron au#I just put a lot of effort into something I will likely never do anything with....#twas a good day

A Candidate for a Soulmate Bled (aka, Oops, My Hand Slipped)
Title is from Red Hot Chili Peppers' Otherside
A soulmate AU feat. pierced and tattooed musician Keith and bartender Lance (also they both smoke, sorry)
TW: mentions of past self-harm and a suicide attempt
Implied spicy times
☆・♪・☆
Lance tried not to look at the words on the inside of his left wrist. Ever since they first showed up on his thirteenth birthday he tried to look at them as little as possible. The first words he would hear from his soulmate, sitting there in their own handwriting in neat, sharp script: slittin’ my throat it’s all I ever.
He tried not to look, just like every day, as he settled the leather cuff in place. But something new about it caught his attention. Color had begun to creep in from the center behind the black letters. Red, swirling and spreading like a drop of ink in water. He refused to think of another possibility, given the words themselves, but he knew what that color meant – he’d be meeting his soulmate soon.
Making his way through Los Angeles traffic to his new job, Lance couldn’t help his eyes flicking to the black leather covering those words and the new color. He needed to get a handle on it. It was his first day as a bartender at The Lion Den, co-owned by two of the most unfairly beautiful women he’d ever met, Allura and Romelle, although he’d almost as quickly seen the soulmarks on them, bubbly print wrapped in periwinkle on Allura and elegant script on a bed of petal pink on Romelle. He knew they’d noticed how he kept his own mark covered, but neither of them said anything about it. Naturally, he’d charmed them immediately, and they declared him hired without hesitation after an hour behind the bar effortlessly making every cocktail they threw at him. Right then, however, he just wished LA traffic wasn’t such a bitch.
“Ah, excellent! Right on time!” Coran announced to Lance and the world in general as the heavy side door crashed shut.
Lance had met Coran when he came in for his interview and audition with Allura and Romelle, not noticing until after he’d finished with their barrage of cocktail orders that the older man was standing at the far end of the bar, leaning against the wall. He’d been just as impressed, if not more so given his decades of experience. Allura and Romelle may have had the official final say, but Lance could tell he wouldn’t have been hired if not for Coran’s approval.
“I’ve decided you’ll be here on the main bar tonight, along with myself, of course, Romelle, and Rizavi,” Coran said while leading Lance through to the floor.
Lance cocked his head toward the stage. He wasn’t expecting anyone to be there hours before the legendary celebrity hangout opened, but the stage was occupied by a single person, blood red electric guitar in his hands. The notes tickled something in the back of Lance’s mind, he knew the song but couldn’t quite place it. The song faded into the background as he let himself be distracted by the guitarist.
Even on stage Lance could tell he was tall, pale skin visible through a patchwork of tattoos covering his arms and sides. The faded band tee he wore had been altered at some point in its life, sleeves cut off, turning it into the muscle tank that showed off the ink that peeked through. Lance could see the edges of another tattoo over the neckline just below a black satin choker. A half-assed ponytail barely held silky black hair back, not that he seemed to notice the strands slipping free to frame his delicately angular face, partially obscuring the piercings scaling his ears, thick brows knit in concentration, he was far too focused on the music. It took Lance far longer than he’d like to admit to recognize this god in human form as Keith Kogane, guitarist and vocalist of Black Knight/Red Knight.
“Yeah, he likes to come in sometimes, if he’s playing that night. Says it’s quiet enough to think.” Coran looked between Lance and Keith. “Have you two met?”
Lance snapped back to where Coran was standing beside him. “Wha-no. Um, no, we haven’t.”
“Well, you’ll probably get to tonight. He’ll probably be here until closing. Usually is. Anyway, here’s where you’ll be tonight. Get familiar with the space, it’ll be your home for tonight and possibly longer if you can keep up.”
Lance shook his head, refocusing on his job. “Right.”
As promised, once The Lion Den opened for business, it was packed. The majority were actors and musicians, sliding in and out of booths and tables, talking and drinking. Having worked in the city for a few years, Lance was well aware of how much the entertainment industry could put away on a good night, and this was a good night. They’d only been open for two hours, and he’d already been hit on by several people, men and women both, and they tipped well if he played along, knowing full well they’d forget all about the cute bartender at the end of the night, which worked just fine for him. He might have intentionally dressed for it with his favorite mix of “classy” and slutty that would also keep him from overheating in the form of his favorite curve-hugging jeans and buttoned waistcoat, nothing underneath it, which also showed off his own extensive tattoo collection.
The sheer number of Jack & Cokes he’d made already meant that the bottle of Jack in his well had run out quickly, and their barback was nowhere to be seen, leaving Lance to refill the well himself. He had the bottle in hand and had just stepped back through the door from the store room and onto the floor when he heard a single note from a guitar and a smoky voice joining in.
“Slittin’ my throat, it’s all I ever…”
The rest of the song was instantly blocked out, although he recognized it instantly as Otherside, the same song Keith had been playing that afternoon. Had it not been for Rizavi beside him, he would have dropped the bottle when his soulmark erupted under his leather cuff with a burn so intense it made his skin tingle and itch. He ripped the cuff off, stiff leather hitting the floor. The ink drop from that morning had exploded, deep, bright, red licking out from the words like a mix of blood and flame. Keith fucking Kogane was his fucking soulmate.
“Lance. Lance, are you alright?” Coran asked.
Lance looked up, glancing at Coran before moving past him, watching where Keith continued to play onstage, completely oblivious to his soulmate staring at him from behind the bar.
“Yeah. I think I’m good,” he answered, breathless.
Coran finally noticed the lack of Lance’s cuff and what it had been hiding, looking up to the stage and back, an unfathomable expression on his face.
“Good,” he said, unusually subdued, “He usually gets a drink after playing and takes it outside for a smoke, just so you know.”
Lance immediately understood that there was far more to Keith than he’d ever imagined. “Thanks, Coran,” he said quietly before turning back to the crowd of half drunk actors and musicians in front of him.
Just like Coran had said, not long after Keith was finished he came down to the bar, heading directly for Romelle at the other end, making Lance almost miss him when he walked by again, heading for the back door, rocks glass of neat whiskey hanging from his fingertips. The bar was still busy, although not so busy that Lance would be greatly missed. Coran nodded toward the back door, giving Lance all the permission he needed to take off.
Keith was leaning against the wall, glass on the hip-high table while he lit the cigarette between his lips. Lance just stood there, watching as Keith slipped the lighter back in his pocket and tipped his head back, exhaling a stream of smoke into the night air. His ponytail was just as half-assed as it had been that afternoon, and he was still wearing the same muscle tank, but now Lance was closer, spotting the lip ring he hadn’t seen earlier, along with the daith and tragus piercings, and noticing that the satin choker had been replaced with studded leather. He watched while long fingers picked up the glass, cigarette caught between them, watched while Keith took a sip, not noticing until glass touched wood that he was being fixed with a deep violet stare.
Lance’s brain couldn’t catch up with his mouth before he spoke. “You’re beautiful.”
Keith stared at him, confused and disbelieving, for only a split second before his own soulmark exploded in color, deep, clear blue spilling out like rolling waves. There, in Lance’s flowing cursive, were the same two words he’d just spoken in awed, hushed tones. Keith stared at his wrist as the color finished filling out, then snapped up to Lance. In two long strides, he’d pinned Lance to the wall, caging him in.
“Do you – do have any idea? Any idea what those words have done to me?” Keith demanded, his voice strained.
“Do you have any idea what yours have done to me?” Lance countered, holding his own arm up, song lyric in full view.
Keith huffed, but there was a sadness to it. He reached behind his neck with his free hand, unclasping the choker, letting it fall into his hand. The scar it was hiding had faded, silvery now instead of pink, but it’s path was clear. The lyric permanently a part of Lance’s skin held more truth than he hoped, and just as much as he’d feared.
“Yeah, I think I do. But yours? They saved me. I hit my lowest point, but while I was recovering, I’d see those two words, and it reminded me that there was someone out there somewhere who’d see this broken mess and love me anyway. It’s been my constant reminder that maybe I’m not as worthless as I think.”
Lance saw every shred of pain in the violet gaze he held, every jagged edge of recovery, every crack held together by the weight of his words. He saw the despair and the hope, and was immediately determined to keep that hope alive. He grabbed the front of Keith’s top, yanking him closer, lips crashing together.
Keith tasted of smoke and whiskey and sweat and metal. Lance tugged gently on Keith’s lip ring, and whimpered, letting him in. A tongue piercing Lance didn’t know about grazed the roof of his mouth, the feeling familiar and foreign, this one not being his own. Keith found Lance’s and deepened their kiss further, abandoning his lit cigarette in the ashtray to lift Lance by his thighs, pushing him harder into the wall. Lance wrapped his legs around Keith’s waist, holding him there as he pulled away.
“You’re not, y’know,” Lance said, fingers running through loose black strands, “You’re worth everything.”
☆・* :·♪·: *・☆
“Y’know,” Lance said, flicking ash into the heavy glass ashtray beside him, “I really thought I’d quit. Guess not.”
Keith snorted beside him in bed. “That’s what you’re worried about? We literally just met tonight, I basically kidnapped you from work to bring you back to my place, and we just fucked, but the first coherent thing you say is that you guess you haven’t really quit smoking? Seriously?”
“Hey, it’s important. Might have to call out tomorrow, though. Not sure if I’ll be able to walk.”
Keith just shook his head with a silent laugh shaking his shoulders and stole the cigarette. He took one last drag, reaching across to put it out. “Want to make that a certainty?”
“Oh fuck yes.”

The Klance Pups - Omegaverse Klance AU
Helping Love Omegaverse Klance AU - Explanation on the kids from Oldest to Youngest, Appearance & ect.
{Oldest Child: Sylvio - Middle children: Nadia and Cole - Youngest Child: Mela}
About Sylvio:
Sylvio is a smaller version of Lance, mocha brown skin since both Lance and Luis have dark brown skin so Sylvio ended up taking after Lance in both skin and Hair color. He has blue scale marks and ocean blue eyes like his papa (Lance) and when he turned 9, he was presented as an Omega with a loving two parents (Keith is who he accepts as his father). He has a height of 4'8 and he's Lance's oldest child. In the story before the Epilogue, he is 5 years old. Because of his Heritage he is half Human and Half Altean and Galran, the Galra DNA in him is because of Lance's blood from Yjok's misdeed towards Melenor when Lance's was still a baby in Melenor's stomach.
About Nadia
Nadia is Sylvio's 5 month younger sister, she got Luis's brown hair and light brown skin but Lance's blue eyes, she has pale pink scale marks like her Aunt Allura and Grandmother Melenor. When she also turned 9 she was presented as an Alpha with her two loving parents (Keith is who she accepts as her father). She has a height of 4'5 and she's Lance's oldest daughter. In the story before the Epilogue, she is 5 years old like her brother Sylvio. Because of her Heritage, like Sylvio, she has 3 species of DNA in her but has Altean marks and doesn't show any form of Galra features. She has Human ears like her birth father Luis and brother Sylvio.
About Mela
Mela is Lance's youngest daughter and the middle child with Nadia, she has Keith's hair but a mix of veridian red scale marks that are a bit dark because of Lance's blue scale marks. She has a mix of her parent's eyes and Lance's skin tone but it's lighter because of Keith's pale nature. Mela also has a mix of 3 species however, her DNA has more Galra in it because of both Keith and Lance possessing Galra blood but in the end she looked remarkably like an Altean but her parents are still looking for Galra features that she may possess. Because of a time issue in Space, she became Lance's youngest child and her younger brother Cole became the middle child so at the time in the story before the Epilogue, she was almost a year old before Cole was born but because of the three year time issue, Cole is three years older than her. She presents as an Omega but acts like an Alpha when she's older, she inherited Keith's hardheaded personality.
About Cole.
Cole was originally Lance's youngest but became the Middle child after the time Issue, in the story he is three years old but shows issues with his vocals making him a possible mute however there are times that he does speak but expresses that he feels most comfortable with Sign language that Lance taught him. He is half Altean and Galran because of his parents but he hates Lotor once he learns the truth and considers and will only accept Keith as his father. Because Keith is also Galra, getting used to his Galra features is something both he and Keith bond over. In the story before the Epilogue, he refused to leave Lance's side because of the upstart Luis started and he was shown to be timid shy boy. He looks Altean with white hair, blue pupils but yellow sclera, and seafoam green Altean marks. His skin is light brown and the only showing aspect of his Galra features are his yellow sclera with his blue eyes. He presents as an Alpha and once he's older he is already close to 5'7.

Ch 1
---------
He had only planned on going into the base and getting information, then to get the baby out of there when he found out about it.
Now, it had been a few hours, and he was back in his lion, staring down at this sleeping baby.
She was peaceful, wrapped up in a thin baby blanket, but Shiro had so many questions.
Altn-251.
Altean 251.
How many had they experimented on?
How'd they even get an Altean child? Because he only knew two.
Well, three now, he supposed, because the base he'd infiltrated had been hiding an Altean child that looked to be around two or three months old.
She was cute, though, he had to admit that.
Her hair was a soft pink, like cherry blossoms in the spring. Her eyes and Altean marks were purple, and she was sleeping in his arms peacefully.
'Allura and Coran are going to be so confused yet happy to know that they're not the only ones,' Shiro thought to himself.
The baby had been awake when Shiro first saw her. Her scared eyes turned to well... Less scared. She seemed to know that he was there to get her out, and she'd fallen asleep pretty quickly. He was glad, because it meant that she didn't have to see the blood and lifeless bodies all over the place.
He'd nearly thrown up as he got out of that place.
Black sent him a message, and Shiro sighed in relief.
"I guess it's time to return home, huh?" He asked. Black agreed.
He put the baby, which he'd already named Sakura, into a special cot that apparently Alfor had put in all of the lions for cases like this. He sent a thanks to the dead king that he'd thought ahead like this.
Shiro sat down in the pilot's seat and moved Black, guiding her into the atmosphere and out of it.
"Guys, are you there?" He said into his comms.
"Shiro! Are you alright?"
"I'm fine, Princess, though I crashed into a planet that had a base filled with people wanting to experiment on a baby," he said.
"A baby?!" Coran asked, genuinely upset and angry.
"Yes. I've dealt with all of the personnel and I have the baby with me, she's asleep right now."
"Coran, go prepare a room for the baby. I believe that we should still have my old things from when I was one in the storage," Allura said.
"Yes, Princess."
"Shiro, I'm going to need your coordinates so that I can open a wormhole to get you and the baby back quicker."
"On it," he replied. He easily sent off his coordinates. Moments later, a wormhole opened in front of him.
He flew Black through it. Seeing the castle again gave him a sense of relief. He wasn't as tense as before, even when he had Sakura in his arms.
He landed Black in her hangar. The entire team, including Coran, were already there. Shiro sighed with relief.
They were safe. The kids in his care were safe, and they were home.
He went and grabbed Sakura, wrapping the blanket to cover her head. Then he grabbed the things he'd managed to get from that place - the baby formula was one of them - and left Black.
"Is this the little one you found?" Coran asked, peering at Sakura.
"She is. Although, I have no clue as to how she exists," Shiro replied.
"What do you mean?" Allura asked, curiously. Shiro pulled away the bit of blanket covering Sakura's head.
"Because her people are supposed to be dead."
The entire team gasped. Allura and Coran stared at the baby in his arms. Sakura moved, and her eyes opened. She looked at the princess.
"Hello, there," Allura said. Sakura made a noise at her. "You're so adorable! Your ears, too! Oh, I'm so glad to meet you."
"You can hold her," Shiro said. Allura looked up at him, smiled, and took Sakura from his arms.
That snapped the others out of their stupor.
"What were they planning on doing to her?" Keith asked.
"I don't know, but I made sure to download all of the information I could," Shiro replied.
"We'll have a look at that information in a tick. I just need to make sure that you and the little one are both okay," Coran said.
"Sakura," he said.
"Sakura?" Allura repeated. Shiro nodded.
"Yeah. I... I decided to name her so... I went with Sakura."
"That's what the Japanese call the cherry blossoms. They only bloom for a couple of weeks in spring, so there's this whole viewing. The flowers are pink," Keith supplied. Allura smiled.
"I think that it's the perfect name for you. Don't you think so?" Sakura made another sound in reply to Allura.
"Let's go check over you and little Sakura here." Shiro nodded.
All of them made their way to the infirmary, where Shiro and Sakura were scanned. Luckily, Shiro had a minor concussion and bruising. Sakura was in good health.
Pidge took plenty of videos and photos of Sakura, while Lance cooed at her and played games with her.
"We were able to set up a room for her using many of Allura's old things, so she should be quite comfortable," Coran informed him. Shiro nodded, watching as the three teens and the mice fussed over Sakura.
"That's good. I'm honestly glad I got thrown onto that planet."
"You said that you took care of the scientists there?" Keith asked.
Shiro could only nod, barely able to keep away from the fuzzy memories that tried to creep into his mind and take over him.
"We'll have to take a look at that information you got soon. Perhaps when Sakura is sleeping."
"Yeah."
It didn't take long for Sakura to fall asleep again. Lance said that it was probably the excitement of meeting friendly people. Shiro had to agree.
So they put her down for a nap in Allura's old crib. Then, with a baby monitor in hand, they went to decipher the information that Shiro had the foresight to gather.
So they crowded around one of the desks in Green's hangar, where Pidge opened up Shiro's arm and plugged in a few wires to get to the information.
Pidge sucked in a giant breath.
"What's it say?" Lance asked.
"It says that Sakura is the 251st test subject. All of the other ones died because of the intensity of the tests. Not only that, but they were planning on turning her into a monster and setting her against us."
"Then it is very good that Shiro found her before then." All of them nodded.
Shiro knew what it was like to be turned into a weapon, to have what made a person themselves ripped away slowly until they were a shell of who they were.
He could still barely crack the jokes he used to make. In fact, none of the others except for Keith knew that he used to make them.
A hand on his shoulder, Keith's hand, pulled him out of his thoughts. Good thing, too, because he might have spiralled farther than he wanted.
"I'm glad that I got her out of there." He admitted.
"We all are, Shiro. However, we can not afford for the Galra Empire to hear of her. I don't want to know what would happen if they did, so we can not risk it."
"Allura's right. We can leave her on the ship with me during missions of all kinds. I have taken care of not only Allura when she was a baby, but also my own children." This revelation made the Humans look at each other.
Coran had lost his family when Altea was destroyed, just as Allura had lost her father.
"Alright well, that sounds good. We leave her here when we have missions, and take turns caring for her," Shiro said.
"That sounds like a good plan," Allura confirmed.
"That also means that we will have to keep other diplomats from knowing of her existence, so everyone who lives on this ship is sworn to secrecy," Pidge added.
"We'd all keep her a secret from diplomats regardless, Pidge," Keith pointed out. Pidge just shrugged.
"I'm just trying to make sure that everyone's on the same page here," she told him.
"We all are," Shiro confirmed.
"Sakura's cuteness is too precious to be shared with anyone else," Lance commented.
"I agree with Lance on that. Though wouldn't it be a good idea to socialise her with other children?" Hunk asked.
That was a very good point.
Sakura was going to need to get used to other children and learn how to share, be kind, and all of that. Letting her hang out with other children her age would be a good idea.
"We can let the Olkari know of her existence, though they will be sworn to secrecy, as Pidge said earlier. However, I do believe that they will not tell anyone else about Sakura," Allura said. She gave them all a smile. "I will talk to Ryner about this subject as soon as I am able to."
They separated then, going off to do their own things. Pidge continued to scan through the information, joined by Lance who was the most fluent in Altean compared to the rest of them. Hunk went to make something for lunch, and Coran went off to check on everything within the castle. Keith joined Shiro.
“Is something wrong?” He asked. Keith shook his head.
“Nothing’s wrong. I just… need to talk to you about something,” he replied. Shiro tilted his head, curious.
“Not here. I… I don’t want the others to know just yet…”
“Oh. So a secret thing?” Shiro asked. Keith nodded. “Let’s go to the training deck. You can tell me there.”
“Okay.”
They walked there in silence, side by side. Two brothers, going to beat each other up and talk about a secret that the youngest trusted the oldest with.
Shiro had to laugh at that.
“What?”
“We’re basically brothers, and we’re on our way to beat each other up,” Shiro replied.
“You’re a dumbass,” Keith said, shaking his head. He was smiling though.
They entered the training room and got ready, standing in position and waiting for the other to make a move.
As always, it was Keith who moved first. He tried to punch Shiro. Shiro blocked it and swung at him. Keith managed to dodge the move, then made to kick Shiro, forcing them apart.
“So, what’d you want to tell me?” He asked, dodging another hit.
“My crush,” Keith replied. He dodged a kick aimed at his head.
“Any progression with that? Have you maybe kissed him?” That threw Keith off long enough for Shiro to knock him off his feet. Unfortunately, Keith was able to steady himself. He attempted to swipe at Shiro.
“We ended up on the same planet together,” Keith replied, standing up and aiming a high kick at Shiro. He moved out of the way and grabbed Keith’s leg, pulling the younger to the ground and pinning him.
“And?” Shiro prompted.
“He may have thought that we maybe weren’t going to survive, and he might have kissed me.” Shiro grinned. He laid down on the ground next to Keith, putting his feet up in the air and resting his head on his hands as if he were a teenage girl talking about crushes with her friends.
“Do tell, Keith. Did you like it? Did you kiss him back? Do you want to marry him and have five babies?”
“What the fuck?” Keith asked. Shiro snorted.
“Just tell me,” he insisted. Keith laid himself flat on the floor, face smushed into it.
“I… liked it. And I kissed him back. And now I want to find him and make out with him.” Shiro laughed, causing Keith to glare at him. The red covering his face made it hard to take him seriously, though.
“You’re in love,” he teased. Keith got up and launched himself at Shiro. They ended up wrestling on the floor, going back and forth until they were lying side by side, breathless.
“I think I am,” Keith said. His voice was so quiet that Shiro almost didn’t hear him.
Almost.
“Don’t let the opportunity slip by you now that you know that he feels this way about you,” he advised, looking at Keith. His brother turned his head to look at him, studying him for long moments.
“I won’t,” he promised. Shiro smiled at him.
They returned to sparring a while later, talking about anything and everything, exchanging jokes and insulting each other like siblings did, laughing together.

Future children pt.2 (Allurance!!!!)
So… Allurance is right after Kidge! Yes, because Lance and Allura, even though she's dead, for me they will always have a happy married life with children and grandchildren!
Zaphia: Dark skin, brown hair, blue Altean markings, round ears and blue eyes. She's good at piloting and a lover of alchemy and water, always curious and playful, but balancing responsibility to outrageousness.
Alfor: olive skin (that of Lance to be clear …), white hair, turquoise eyes, pink Altean signs, pointed ears. He is outgoing and curious, always ready to have fun and learn new things. Impulsive and quite vengeful, but still sweet and he loves alchemy too. He is 4 years younger than Zaphia.
Alex (Alexander??): Olive skin, blue/lilac eyes, white hair and pointed ears, no Altean signs. He is fast and rebellious, he never follows the rules and always gets into trouble, he has a great passion for light combat and legends. He loves Monsters and Mana.
El (Elizabeth???): Olive skin, pink/lilac eyes, white hair and pointy ears, no Altean markings. She is very calm and focused, shy and kind, always composed. She has excellent aim and a passion for video games.
El and Alex are twins and are 4 years younger than Alfor and 8 years younger than Zaphia.

Somehow I can see Altean being aware of magic, maybe they had their own version of it. So Allura and Coran teach Harry their magic.
Also, I can see Harry change physical aspect of people he doesn't like like a certain enemy prince ( Pidge has photos of Lotor with pink hair and dressed like a ballerina).
Another thing, I can see Harry sensing that the Shiro who came back after disappearing isn't the real one and can sense the real Shiro inside Black . So much that he keeps his distance from fake Shiro and spending time with Black lion and chatting with Black
Magical children are like sponges, with cores constantly drawing on the ambient magic around them which in turn strengthens and forms their own magic. Normally this isn’t a problem.
Normally magical children don’t yeet themselves into space and get raised by two magical aliens among their other guardians.
Harry’s magic is powerful and strange. Overwhelming to those not used to it. Practically smothering to any earth magical exposed to it. He is as close to Altean as he can get without changing his actual DNA. He doesn’t get the markings, doesn’t test oddly if someone were to draw his blood, but he is other in a way that sets people not accustomed to him on edge.
Lotor (who I am not sure if I’ll go the canon route with or not at this point because I liked him so much more before he “jk evil all along lol :P”) was certainly cowed by the mini paladin (for all Harry doesn’t have a Lion of his own it is certainly no secret that any of the lions would accept this little one in a heartbeat) at first.
The child is clearly not Altean, yet the power rolling off of him all but screams it if a bit… different… changed somehow.
Their first few meetings are… turbulent at best. With the little one always lurking around corners and Lotor always leaving an interaction with the child either stained an odd color or on one particular miserable occasion covered in powder fine glitter that got over everything he owned.
-
The immediate suspicion that would come from everyone when Harry who used to cling to Shiro and use him as his own personal climbing gym because he was so tall goes cold and distant around him when he returns like.
Also the angst of clone Shiro not (as far as I remember) actually knowing he is a clone could be *chefs kiss*

Meep, hello! Been thinking about how crossover VLD/DotU Lotura would react to one another and your Beyond the Stars story came to mind, and while I love how DotU Allura immediately befriended VLD Lotor bc he’s so polite and diplomatically inclined, I can’t help but wonder - how do you think DotU Lotor would react to VLD Allura?
Like yes, she has the same temperament and righteous ambition, but unlike her counterpart she’s also so freaking powerful. Of course he would admire her, but would he also feel threatened? And how would she handle his abrasive behavior, since she could easily match him physically?
Anyway, I was just curious. Love your writing and hoping to hear your thoughts!
Ahhhhhh!
Aaaaaaaahhhh!!
(First of all, thank you, thank you, I'm so delighted you enjoyed that story so much - it started off as a silly crack piece that wasn't supposed to be serious, but ended up creating its own actual story.)
Second-- FUN FACT - I too, have wondered that same thing, and have a Part 2 started. I genuinely don't know if this will end up as a story in full, but I very, VERY much wanted to see what DotU Lotor and VLD Allura would do when they met.
Ahem - since it may end up being a sequel story at some point, and it's a little long, I'll drop it under the cut. But, here we go 👇👇
“What is this, Princess?”
“I believe the boys call it popcorn. It’s something from Earth,” the princess gowned in pink explained, passing the striped bin between her palms to the Galtean emperor beside her. “It’s good to see you again,” she added with a warm smile.
The strange man from beyond the rift smiled calmly down at her, clawed hands accepting the strange offering of food.
“Our paladins often bring strange delicacies as well. I’m surprised they haven’t mentioned anything like this. I must ask them,” he conceded, popping a fluffed kernel into his mouth. “It appears my advice has served you well,” he added, blue irises sliding to glance down to the blushing blonde beside him.
“I won’t say we haven’t had our differences, but yes. I… shortly after you left, I corralled my courage and spoke directly with Prince Lotor. We negotiated a cease-fire, and I agreed to offer to help him take his throne. You were right. About everything,” she added with a blush.
“And now you are his queen,” he observed in between bites of popcorn.
Allura’s shoulders rolled in a shrug and she gestured to their surroundings.
“It seemed natural. It took… quite a while to prepare for the strike against King Zarkon, by the time we finally succeeded, we had become close enough that… well, at least I realized I didn’t want to just stay friends. Or simply allies. And now here we are, Castle Doom,” she grinned cheerfully up at him, in stark contrast to the gloomy surroundings.
The Emperor wordlessly popped another kernel past his lips, studying her quietly.
“Your husband has a curious taste in decor,” he murmured, his eyes leaving hers as he swept their surroundings, taking in the vast number of empty seats in the coliseum.
The two sat alone alone atop the pedestal marked for royalty, the only spectators to the match below. The two competitors were none other than their very own partners.
Allura winced as a silver haired-woman hurled her husband across his own coliseum.
“...He’s going to feel that tomorrow,” she murmured, reaching over to steal a handful of popcorn from the emperor’s hands.
“It does indeed leave a bruise,” he murmured, watching his counterpart stagger to his feet and charge back at the woman, a warcry echoing from his lips.
“Are you worried for her safety?”
Allura’s bright blue eyes flickered up to her friend.
“No,” he answered simply. The statement of faith marked as the warrior woman quickly dispatched her challenger effortlessly. “Are you worried about him?”
“A little. I had no idea there was an Allura of such strength on your side of the rift,” she murmured in awe.
Lotor dragged himself to his feet and glared angrily at his opponent.
“He’s certainly determined,” the emperor observed.
Allura coughed before popping a piece of popcorn past her lips.
“You have no idea,” she groaned, drawing a soft chuckle from him. “I’m pleased you’ve returned,” she added. “It’s been fascinating to meet her.”
“It was very much her idea. Not,” he paused, his eyes popping wide as he realized the implication and he quickly corrected himself. “Not that I didn’t wish to return and thank you myself, but she was the one who spearheaded the research to figure out how to control the rift technology once I explained what had happened.”
“It’s such a relief to know it worked. I had no way of knowing, on my side. You know, that you had made it, or that she had found you.”
Galtean eyes glanced down at her and he could only exhale for a moment.
“Oh my stars,” she muttered after a moment, her hands covering her lips when Lotor landed on his backside, only to glare across the stadium. “Please just give up,” she whispered to herself.
“Do you think he will?”
Allura returned his curious look with a flat one.
“Absolutely not. At some point I’m going to have to go down there and drag him away before he gets a concussion,” she grumbled. With a huff, she crossed her arms over her chest.
“They aren’t so bad.”
Allura’s eyes popped wide as his words, coupled with his prior statement, clicked in her mind. Slowly, she turned her gaze up to the calm man beside her; so vastly different than the one she called her husband.
“Has… did she…?”
A grin split across his lips.
“We had a slight disagreement about something.”
“Are you alright?”
His eyes widened in genuine surprise as he stared down at her in surprise, touched by her concern. He studied her expression for any trace of derision or jest and found none.
He swallowed.
“I am now, yes,” he answered honestly.
Allura’s worry melted into delight, another cloudbreaking smile splitting across her features.
“Good,” she praised, looking away from him to regard the combat of wills on display below.
Slowly, Lotor returned his attention to the spectacle as well.
“After this, could we…” He trailed off, hesitant to ask for such favors from his host.
“Would you like to return to Altea?” Allura grinned, not even needing to hear the rest of his request. “We wouldn’t even be here if King Lotor hadn’t challenged the Empress to an Honor Duel,” she added dryly. “Of course he would want to do it here.”
He exhaled weakly beside her.
“...I like the aesthetic of your Castle of Lions better.”
Allura erupted in a fit of giggles.
“As do I,” she agreed.
“...Allura, I believe, would prefer Altea as well. She… she couldn’t stop talking about it once I mentioned I had been to a place where it still existed.”
A strange mixture of both a warm happiness and a chilling dread settled across the queen’s heart. While pleased she was able to offer such a thing to the Empress from beyond the stars, it was a chilling reminder that her planet - her people - in some places had not survived Zarkon’s warpath.
“Of course,” she said, her voice tight with emotion.
She blinked suddenly at the duel.
“Oh, this is finished,” she murmured, rising from her seat. Gathering the folds of her pink and white gown, she bustled swiftly down the staircase toward the railing edging the wall of the pit. “We concede,” she called out.
Lotor’s head snapped at the sound of her voice.
“I do not,” he called out. “I’m not done!”
“Yes, yes you are,” she said delicately, smiling gently at her war-bred husband, her palms delicately folding on the railing. He stared at her for a moment before looking back at the Empress staring at him coolly.
“I can’t lose to her!”
The queen stifled a giggle behind her hand and she shook her head once.
“You already have, Lotor. I want to go home now,” she added with a pout.
Unable to deny the sunkissed woman anything she wanted, he exhaled and nodded once to his opponent.
“I… yield,” he ground out, the last word twisting in his throat as if it were something vile.
“Thank you.”
Serpentine eyes flickered back to his wife as she spoke, extending her hand out toward him. He wasted no time in mounting the wall to stand beside her.
“You were magnificent,” she praised when he only gave a disgruntled look over his shoulder at the silver-haired woman who scaled the wall to curl into the arms of her emperor.
“I lost,” he pouted.
Her fingers curled around the skull belt at his hips and tugged him closer.
“Yes, yes you did. And that’s alright. I want to go back to Altea.”
She turned and snaked her arm around his, leading him toward the other couple.
“The Emperor has requested a return to Altea, does that sit well with you, Empress?”
Allura tilted her head to the side as her elfin mirror glanced her way.
“You need not address me so formally,” she spoke, the lilt and cadence of her voice matching her husband’s.
“It seems strange to speak my own name, but, as you like, …Allura.”
“Thank you. Come, I wish to explore this planet that is both so similar and yet so different from the one I grew up on. I am pleased it exists still, at least somewhere in the universe. In… a universe, I suppose.”
“Have you found other realities? With other… people? Like us?”
Brilliant blue eyes were riveted on her spirit sister in wonder, fascinated by the technology they had unearthed.
“We have not yet looked, though we suspect yes. Lotor mentioned he’d left you the blueprints for the modulators… have you not… tried?”
Allura bit her bottom lip and she turned her gaze forward, continuing to glide side by side with the Empress, their partners trailing silently on their arms.
“I was a bit… intimidated by it. Besides. The rule was not until we had taken the Empire from Zarkon’s control. This… peace across the galaxy now is very, very new.”
“My dear, I’ve been offering you the galaxy since I met you.”
The queen scowled at Lotor.
“Yes but I couldn’t trust you, with all your beastly mannerisms and conquering sprees. What was I supposed to think?”
His nose wrinkled slightly in a scowl as the blonde turned her attention back to a smirking Empress.
“What?”
She didn’t reply to her blonde haired proxy, but instead swiveled her prismatic gaze to an equally bemused Emperor.
“They suit just as well as you predicted,” she murmured, eliciting a blush from the woman on her other side.
When her warlord husband only laughed triumphantly on her other side, her flushed deepened and she smacked his arm lightly.
“Hush,” she scolded. “We’re here.” She released the king’s arm and proudly strode up the ramp to the Altean ship that had brought them to Daibazaal in the first place mere hours ago.

Lotura Week 2023 Day 7 - Cooking Up Chaos
In Which Cats Invite Chaos
Emperor Lotor of the Galra entered his private study and stopped short in surprise, unsheathing his sword to wield against spies and soldiers. But the individual stooped over his desk—with all of its secrets of the empire—was no spy and certainly no decorated soldier that he knew.
Instead, a beautiful woman in an iridescent dress sat atop the wood, frozen, with Lotor’s own cat in her arms.
Lotor lowered his sword in disbelief, as before him sat the living image of the renowned Princess Allura of Altea.
She squeaked, releasing the cat before hopping off the desk in a manner most would have considered un-royal, her skirts lifting in the shuffle to show dainty ankles and a shadow of a slim, toned leg. “Oh,” the princess exclaimed, her elfin ears flicking back. “Oh, I’m so terribly sorry, whoever you are. You see, this darling creature stole my attention and guided me back here.”
Lotor’s split pupils lowered to the sight of the princess’s hands, which trembled as she moved to clasp her skirts.
“I am Princess Allura of Altea,” she babbled, moving to curtsey before him. Her thick, white curls slipped down her shoulder. “Please do not kill me, sir—my father would be very unhappy, as he would have to start a war, and really, no one wants a war anymore.”
The Emperor swallowed hard. He’d barely heard a word she had said, for his attention had swept to the princess’s bare shoulder and the glimmer of the gems in her hair. “I—” He cleared his throat, then straightened his spine. “I thought the planet Altea had not accepted my invitation at all.”
The princess stood up from her curtesy, eyes widening. “Your invitation?”
He tilted his head and swept out his clawed hand. “You are in my private study,” he said, his heart pounding. “And I am Emperor Lotor, the host of this ball.”
Allura’s slipped feet disappeared under her thick skirts, as did Kova, who continued to purr happily against her legs. Her chest heaved with fearful breath. “You’re Emperor Lotor? You?” She awkwardly began to backstep.
Most oddly, the more she stared at him, the more heated her cheeks grew, which Lotor could visibly see by the brightening glow of her Altean marks.
He could hear her heart pound in the same rhythm as his own.
And then he could sense it, even beneath her juniberry perfume.
Out of all the woman who’d come to the ball for his hand, it was the Princess Allura who found him attractive.
Lotor said to Allura, his velvet voice light and unassuming, “My apologies, princess. I did not mean to intimidate you. This is simply an odd spot to meet my most elusive neighbor from Altea.”
She flushed deeper, her marks a bright glimmer of pink. “Oh, I—I feel I’ve made a terrible bungle of things. I was supposed to—” she cleared her throat. “Well, I was quite hoping to represent my planet appropriately, and here I am chasing a pet.”
He smiled, his fangs glimmering in the low light of the study. “Kova is known to enchant all, but he rarely chooses to return the attention. That must make you special, Princess Allura.”
Her elfin ears—so sleek and delicate—flicked with the praise.
The heat off of her radiated to him, along with the maddeningly fast pound of her heart. His eyes began to dilate in response to her pheromones and the tension of the space between them.
Princess Allura swallowed hard visibly. “How, um, should I make up for this social faux paus, Emperor Lotor?”
Lotor hummed, then held out his hand. “I would request a dance with the Princess of Altea, if she is agreeable. And if she can untangle Kova from her skirts.”
The cat’s tail swished lazily from beneath the hem of Allura’s dress. He had lain over her slippered feet, purring loudly in contentment of her warmth and scent.
Allura made a noise, delicately lifting up her skirts to reveal the sleepy cat. “Am I allowed to dance with your owner, little one?”
Lotor’s eyes caught sight of the princess’s dainty ankles once more, along with the glimmering gems of her slippers. He had difficulty looking away.
The cat meowed in a pout before rising up, slinking away with a look at Lotor.
Lotor glanced back at him, quirking a brow.
The next thing he knew, the princess’s fingers gently grabbed for his own, and her scent enveloped him in a delightful haze.
“I do not know Galran dances,” she admitted quietly, raising her eyes to him. “But I am willing to learn if you do not mind to teach me, Emperor Lotor.”
He glanced back at her. The tension between them heightened.
“Perhaps,” he murmured, “you could teach me an Altean one in return.”
Her face lit up with a bright smile, her cheeks glowing once more.

What happened to the Paladins of Voltron...and where are they now?
(The AU drabble that's based close to the many threads from @moonxsuncelestials and what happened to everyone since vanishing once more...will also be the explanation of why they are in this blog. Trigger warnings ahead: crossovers mention / universes colliding, violence, torture, mentions brainwashing / mind-breaking, betrayal (not by choice), OOCness)
What...what is going on?
Shiro looked at the fist that made contact with the glass in front of him, then slowly looked up at his reflection. Tears streamed down his face as he shakily then stood back, seeing his reflection just...standing there.
The other him on the other side of the mirror tilted his head, his eyes void of emotion as he stood not in Paladin armour...but he was dressed in some sort of uniform that made him look like Alfor...
"Who...who are you...?"
The other Shiro sighed, as if bored and tilted his head, "Are you in denial? You know who I am..."
Frowning, Shiro was wracking his brain for a moment before the other him spoke again.
"Try to remember..."
Shiro found himself sitting in the pilot seat of the Black Lion, blinking slowly as he was hearing the calls of his team mates.
"Hunk is down! Shiro! What should we do?!"
"Shiro? Answer us, what's wrong?"
"Shiro? Can you copy?! The Yellow Lion, it's destroyed!"
"My brother and the other rebel fighters are down! We gotta save them!"
Shiro didn't have time to answer as a bright white light shined over them. Shiro was letting out a shout as he heard the screaming of his fellow paladins, and then everything went black. The next time they woke up, Shiro found himself tied down to an operating table, dressed in what seems to be a pod suit and felt himself grow sick.
Was everything a dream? Did he delude himself and never escaped Zarkon's grasp?
But then a figure appeared in his vision as they hummed, tilting their head as they adjusted their glasses.
And they had Altean markings under their eyes.
"General Hira, I believe the Champion is awake."
Soon, an Altean woman with bright pink hair and cold blue eyes appeared, wearing what seemed to look like an Altean armour. She huffed, looking down at Shiro as if he was dirt under her shoe and then looked at the man with her, "Doctor, can we fix the hoktril device on him?"
"I believe so," The Altean scientist hummed with a nod, and then was clicking his fingers as a large alien was stepping forward with a tray of tools, and Shiro felt himself pale, "All we have to do is adjust the frequency of the tech behind his head along with his arm and soon his free will is no more. Empress Allura will be pleased..."
"As long as she drinks her special Juniberry Tea, she will be the Empress that she is supposed to be..."
"And of the Blue and Red Paladins?"
The Altean woman hummed as she sighed, "The Blue one seems to be stubborn, despite having partly our blood. If he still refuses to cooperate, increase the flames in his prison...as for the Red one..."
Shiro felt the alien that seems to be assisting the scientist hold his head up, and was fiddling something behind his head, his eyes wide and almost struggling to move away from whatever it was they were trying to implant on him. Not again! NOT AGAIN--!
"The Green one has escaped, though, General. What of them?"
"...Let them run like a coward. What's more important is that we managed to capture the Black, Red and Blue Lions. Once we crush them along with the remains of the Yellow Lion, it should be enough to make a new Trans-Reality Comet...Soon the Altean Empire will travel tp even other universes and grant peace to all life forms...even if they resist--"
Shiro gasped as he was pulled back into the purple space he was currently in, then saw the glowing purple eyes of his other self in the mirror, who looked at him in sympathy.
"What...what does this mean?"
"I'm afraid we've run out of time..."
The other Shiro vanished, and the real one soon was shown some hologram of Allura standing in front of him...no, this wasn't Allura.
This Allura was dressed in colors of regal clothing, her eyes cold and her stance reminding Shiro of someone who was a leader...
...or a tyrant.
"Champion. I have a mission for you..."
