Do you have any more voltron fics recommendation? :) Mostly about klance, shance, sheith, or shklance? (Sorry i'm such a trash for them)
Me? Have fic recs???
Actually, it’s been so long since I did a rec list that this ask felt kind of intimidating. This fandom is full of such amazing writers, we’re very lucky! I’m afraid I don’t sheith or shance and am super picky about the shklance I read, so these are all klance fics. I hope you enjoy anyhow!
A lot of these are still WIPs as well because I have no self control when it comes to resisting fics.
Please always read the tags and warnings carefully! <3
Paper Skin - A love story about vampires, werewolves, & other strange creatures, living in New York City, and cooking with your heart. Or someone else’s. [featuring the cutest werewolf!Lance and vamp!Keith]
The Dreaming Dark- The Derceto mission was going to be Lance’s big break, the Dive that would make him famous. All they had to do was go down, collect a few samples, then make it back in one piece. Oh, and investigate the mysterious circumstances surrounding the Kerberos mission disaster that claimed the lives of the previous crew after their base went dark. No big deal, right? [AKA: tmw you accidentally flirt with a fish and it flirts back]
At the End of the Road with You- Incident One started the zombie outbreak two years ago. Now most only survive thanks to organized groups like The Garrison. Lance, Pidge, and Hunk are members of the Echo Scouting and Scavenging Team. They find themselves out on the far outer regions when they come across a survivor from another team that they were lead to believe were killed…
The Shattering of Altea - Altea is a world of dragons, magic, and, until recently, war. It’s also entirely fictional. When Lance put on his VR headset, he fully expected everything he experienced from that point on to be false. But his feelings for the kill-stealing jerk in red armor couldn’t be more real.
Las Palabras de Amor - Keith, the self-declared desert nomad, finds himself back in the small town he grew up in to settle his late father’s affairs and fill in for his old boss at the radio station while the overnight DJ is on maternity leave. Everything in Arus is exactly the same as he left it, except for one very handsome Latino who has spent the past few years weaving himself into the lives of all of Keith’s closest friends…
Blue Pencils - Set during, and after Season 4 of Voltron. This is how Keith and Lance figure out how to maintain a long-distance relationship when Keith leaves. Also there’s a couple of snarky Marmora named Holson and Jaussey.
Hearts Don’t Break Around Here - Lance and Keith have been best friends since first grade. Lance’s brain is always on overdrive and Keith’s blunt, realistic ass can never keep up. They both come to realize that sometimes you can learn a lot about loving yourself by loving someone else.
Follow My Lead - A Friends w/ Benefits AU where Lance wears sleeveless hoodies, plays basketball in abandoned parking lots, and follows his dreams, and Keith comes from a high class, reputable family who never let him have any dreams of his own. They go home with each other and don’t expect it to matter until it totally does.
All the Way Down - “You make it sound like we’re going into battle,” Hunk laughed worriedly on Lance’s other side. “I thought this was like, some kind of carnival.” AKA Lance and Keith spend the day together at the universe’s biggest carnival, challenging each other to ride the biggest and fastest rides, and it’s more like a date than either of them banked on.
Can’t Fight This Feeling - Welcome to Pizza Planet, open til four A.M. Home to shitty food, an exclusively 80s jukebox, and minimum wage employees getting through life on tips and one another. When Keith gets a job as the new delivery boy, he wonders if it might become more than just a means to an end. Meanwhile, Lance just wants to know what the hell the new guy’s damage is.
flicker - Far away from his friends at the castle, Keith’s only way of communicating with them is a battered old phone. This is maybe going to be harder than he thought. A long-distance, friends-to-lovers fic, set during season four.
Lord Grant Me a Kryptonite Binky - In which a half-Galra baby is found and Keith and Lance are, almost ironically, the two people most suited to deal with it.
Call of the Universe - Homesick Lance thinks of all he misses from Earth and seeks solace in the noisy company of his team. But nothing brings him comfort in the quiet loneliness of his bed in the middle of the night. Keith eases his worries with a simple gesture that grows into something more.
Ascent - Assigned to Prince Lotor’s command, hybrid-galra Keith will let nothing get in the way of his mission. Nothing, that is, until a figure behind a wall of glass catches his attention and won’t let it go. Lotor’s prisoner changes everything, and for the first time in his life Keith’s priorities aren’t so clear.
and, we dream of home - “Then come see me,” Lance murmurs, and it makes Keith’s heart pound behind his breastbone. “Us, I mean. Once a week or something?” His life is a hell of a lot easier when he lets himself cave under all the ways he wants Lance’s luminous attention, and company, and friendship. All the ways he wants Lance, full stop.
So I don’t know about you, but I’m often frustrated by the ridiculous smallness of girls’ pockets. At a bare minimum, I need to be able to shove my cellphone in there - come on, pants companies! So what I started doing was making myself pocket extenders. I’ve done this several times, for pants and shorts. It’s great.
I just got this pair of jeans, so I thought I’d show you how to do it. I kind of feel like it just hasn’t occurred to some of you that this is an option, so maybe now it will. All you need is your pants, some fabric (I just took a random piece from a scrap bin), a needle, and some thread (thread doesn’t even need to match the fabric since literally no one will see it).
See? Ridiculous. Like, half a cellphone, or only 2.5″. Useless.
So turn those inside out to expose the pockets.
Figure out how big you want your pockets to actually be. I kinda go by whatever looks like might be right. I didn’t
really measure them. Fold the fabric in half, so you have a pocket, and
then fold it in half again so you can have two equal ones.
Try to get the edges to line up enough, pin it in place, then sew up the sides! Are your stitches crazy uneven and wonky looking? Doesn’t matter; nobody’s going to see it. These are in the inside of your pants. The only thing that matters is that it holds up. So I double-did the corners, since those tend to get the most stress.
Cut open the bottom of the existing pockets.
Pin it in place, then sew around, joining the new pocket to the old pocket. I did this by keeping my hand on the inside, so I wouldn’t accidentally sew through the other side. Again, I reinforced the corners, and didn’t worry about what it actually looks like. Then I turned it in side out to make sure the inside was all joined properly.
Yay all done! And the pockets are so much bigger now!
Whaaaat I can fit my entire phone and entire hand and probably something else now, are girls’ pockets even allowed to do that?! Heck yeah they are.
it's been a long time since i've been so touched by fanart! your drawings always look (for lack of a better way to put it) so real? almost like they're snapshots taken of real events and interactions. i think it's something in their expressions? not sure how to phrase this, but would you have any advice on drawing expressions as convincing as yours? what is your biggest inspo on this front? they're so lovely and make my heart feel so warm and happy. thank you for sharing your wonderful art πΆπ
thank you and wow, that’s an incredibly nice thing you said. i do expression study sometimes; it helps extend the expressions you can draw/put in use just like maybe extending vocabulary.
here’s a practice i did w keith from last year
this and the only thing i can think of that might be a useful tip while drawing: eyebrows are important!!
sorry there is not much i can come up with. but i hope these are more or less helpful! also my kl drawing inspirations probably are all the kl fanworks i read/see that solidified my belief in their love, plus some songs.
