Happy Bday, Lance!! 🌊💙

Have a bunch of alternate Lance’s from various fics to celebrate!

FICS:

I live in a hologram with you - @/basicallymonsters

Lance is missing, and Keith looks for hints as to where he is by revisiting his downloaded consciousness. Problem is, Keith misses Lance and starts getting a little too lost in his memories.

At the Bottom of the Ramp - @iybms

Aggressive rollerblading au with rivals to friends to lovers!

Love Me Twice, Save Me Thrice - @wittyy-name

Faerie au that brings me to me knees. Fey Lance and Half-fey Keith. Magic and world building galore. So many emotions. Fucking kickass fight scene.

A Drug Called Time - @/dailyandgaily

Lance gets cursed by a couple of aliens and gains the ability to rewind time. SO MUCH ANGST. Hurt my soul, and I loved every second of it.

Chasing Stars and Memories - @erithel

Keith and Lance fall through a rift in space together and wind up meeting an alternate reality version of themselves. As they look for a way home, they are faced with the alternate reality version of themselves having the relationship they both secretly long for with each other. So much incredible pain and healing and love.

Chestnut and Onyx - @/MilkTeaMiku @fairydens

Wings!! I’m in the middle of reading this one, but it’s a canonverse fic where humans just so happen to have wings. Insecure Lance with common, plain brown wings feels mediocre in every way, and secretly wishes he had Keith’s pretty black feathers.

When Gwaine finds himself in a bind and can’t attend his latest gig as a pretend rental boyfriend, he begs Merlin to cover for him. A certain blond is worried about how his father would react to him bringing a boyfriend home for Christmas but doesn’t want to subject a real boyfriend to the potential backlash. With the amount of money being offered, and Merlin’s conscience reminding him that this is the first time the reason for a rental boyfriend makes perfect sense, Merlin can’t bring himself to let Gwaine - or the client - down.

Fics that you should read before Arthur comes back: clown edition

Now I know we might all be clowns, and that they're probably playing with us as usual, but honest to God I don't care. I am going to get my hopes up because I have been doing exactly that for the past lord knows how long. So better stay consistent, ok? Better remain true to the cause.

Now here are some post-canon fics that the writers should put into consideration if they know what's good for them.

1. These Ghosts Might Be Mine by @peaceheather. 68K, G.

The only thing I wrote in my bookmarks over this was that it's "the ending we deserved". Pretty sure that sums up exactly what I want to say. It's not just your ordinary time travel fix-it fic, but one that is done with such brilliance that it leaves you marvelling in awe at times. You must do yourself a favour and read for this author if you actually want to get a good understanding of the characters past canon.

2. Seo Gaestlufe/The Soul's Love series by flowerofnettles. 180K, T/E.

I know how hesitant some are when it comes to series, but listen. This one is simply not long enough from how GOOD it is! I rarely read wip fics, (it's now complete) but I genuinely loved living a journey with the author while it was being written, and I felt the amount of love and passion the author spent on it. What a creation, honestly. It's one of the very best out there.

3. I will turn your fear into a handful of dust by @regulusrules. 1K, G.

I am biased, ok? I want my own happy ending for them. I want to see them grow old and weary together. I want them alive. And if what it takes is a 1k drabble of them lying together by the sea, then I'll take it. I'll take it every single time you guys.

4. Albion's last bulwark by Saturne. 92K, E.

You know when there's a halo around a fic that you intensely remember a scene from but never the whole? And the scene alone is more than enough to remind you how good of a fic it is? Yeah. Yeah it's definitely the case here. I vividly feel its effect still. Absolutely planning on rereading soon because of how brilliant it was.

5. And like the cycle of the year, we begin again by @katherynefromphilly. 207K, M.

And lastly, the fandom requirement. The one that we will throw fists for if we don't see a scene or two from. As much as I am always more into canon deviations than accepting the idea of immortality and Arthur rising after millennia, this fic was definitely a pro in trying to make me less in denial. It certainly set the expectations high for any adaptation they might make now, and for good reason.

ARTHUR WILL RISE AGAIN.
