Summary
When Shiro is brought back to life and deposited into his clone's body, he becomes the one thing he always swore he would never be: Useless. Without a Lion to call his own, he's no longer really a part of Voltron, and now Shiro has to find a new place for himself in the universe. To make matters worse, the journey back to Earth is complicated and full of dangers, and while Shiro juggles feeling lost and alone with trying to stop his relationship with Keith from falling apart, the enigmatic White Lion reveals it isn't done with the former Black Paladin just yet.
A Voltron: Legendary Defender fix-it fic. Completely disregards both seasons 7 and 8.

Summary
Okay, so maybe Keith does owe Shiro for keeping his neck away from the chopping block. But if Keith is honest, that's not why he's snuck away to Santa Monica. Shiro is a complete mystery, and alluring in a way that Keith didn't know a person could be. He's just not capable of staying away from the older vampire, and if this new, strange obsession he's developed ends up being his undoing, then so be it. Keith's always been speeding headlong towards disaster, and this time he's ready to burn.

Summary
Shiro isn't sure why he chose to intervene and save Keith Kogane's life. As a Ventrue, Shiro has no love for the Gangrel, so it's not like he gives a damn whether one of them gets staked and beheaded before they even get a chance to enjoy the particular curse called vampirism. But the look in the kid's eyes awakens something in Shiro he thought was extinguished centuries ago, and he brings a stop to Keith's execution before he even realizes he's doing it. He should leave it at that – let Keith find his own way, but Shiro's already made one reckless decision, so what's one more? He heads to The Last Round, Anarch territory, enemy territory, with a desperate hope that Keith will decide to help him uncover the frightening mysteries of the newly discovered Ankaran Sarcophagus. Shiro doesn't really need the kid's help, though. But he sure as hell wants it.

Summary
Ben Solo would have disappointed her, as he’d disappointed everyone else he’d ever claimed to care about. But maybe, just maybe, Kylo Ren and his final act of desperate but devoted love would be enough.
Please for once let it be enough.

Summary
“Yeah, jackass.” Ryuji grips his hammer tight. “Tell us how to wake him up. Or else.”
The shadow’s laughter echoes, shrill and broken. “I am humanity’s shade,” she says, “Your hopes, your dreams. I am the stories you tell at night.”
“You’re testing my fucking patience,” Goro says, gritting his teeth.
She turns to look at him, tilting her head with slow, cat-like grace. Goro widens his stance and grips the hilt of his sword. He refuses to look away. She glances up and down his form, yellow eyes narrow, searching. Then, she stops; she smiles. “You can wake him up with love,” she says. “True love.”

“He just kind of planted one on your corpse,” say Ryuji.
“It was so weird,” says Ann.
“There was a perverse tenderness to the gesture,” remarks Yusuke. “Seen in a certain light, it was almost beautiful.”

Summary
Akechi knows that he’s not supposed to be able to hear Morgana. Maintaining the illusion of ignorance is vital if he wants to gain Akira’s trust and guarantee his death. It’s just a shame that Morgana insists on testing his patience during every interaction. The amount of insults he’s had to endure with a straight face is ridiculous. Still, he tells himself that he just has to curb his indignation until November. Then his plan will culminate in the assassination of the Phantom Thieves’ leader. With Akira gone, Shido will win the election - and Akechi’s moment for revenge will arrive.
He’s so close to victory that he can taste it in the back of his throat. If the biggest obstacle to his success is a talking cat, then he’s gotten pretty lucky.
Unfortunately, he underestimates just how much of a roadblock Akira himself will turn out to be.

Summary
On the morning of February 4th, most of a decade ago, Akechi wakes with a start, stares blindly up at the tiles of the ceiling without registering what he’s looking at, and says out loud, “Well, that’s embarrassing.”

Summary
“You’re so rude,” Ann says as she peels out of her shoes. Free and suddenly much shorter, she slides up next to him, leaning comfortably over the kitchen counter where he and Ren are gathered and bumping his shoulder. “Happy birthday, Goro.”
Goro falters. Thank you has always seemed like an odd response. Not that he’s had much practice.
“It’s Wednesday,” is what he opts for instead. That doesn’t seem better.

Goro Akechi is turning twenty-three. The world often turns without him.
