Hippos

Keithtober '23 week 3

“Aren’t they the cutest?” Keith mutters at the hippo on screen. He and Lance watch a nature documentary for no other reason besides the fact that it was on and they couldn’t reach the remote. That’s the stage they’re at in their relationship and Keith can’t say he minds. It’s nice to be able to relax with Lance for the evening, not worrying about some grand planned date. Moments like these matter the most to him.

Lance scrunches his nose in distaste. “It’d bite you in half without a second thought.”

“Exactly,” Keith emphasizes, “Cute.” He turns to look over his shoulder at Lance, eyebrow raised. “Don’t you like sharks?”

“Yes, but sharks are misunderstood, the puppies of the ocean,” Lance defends himself as he waves a hand at the television screen. “Hippos are just nasty.” Then he pauses, mouth open in mid-thought, before he leans back against the couch. Placing a hand on his chin, he corrects himself. “Wait, actually, I think I understand your obsession now. You’re both kill first, ask questions later type of creatures.” He flashes a smirk at Keith.

“You’re comparing me to a hippo?”

Humming, Lance nods. “If the shoe fits…”

Keith rolls his eyes. “You’re incorrigible.”

Moving forward, Lance drapes himself over Keith’s back, hugging him from behind. His warm hands lay flat on Keith’s stomach, over his shirt, and Keith shivers at the welcomed touch. Lance rests his chin on his shoulder, his lips brushing Keith’s hair when they move to speak again. “My murderous boyfriend’s favorite animal is Earth’s most dangerous land animal. I think it’s sweet.”

“Flattery’s not going to get you anywhere this time.”

“Then why are you almost in my lap?” When Keith faces him, Lance grins like he didn’t pull Keith towards him—even if Keith willingly went along with it. “Must be my animal magnetism,” he mutters in the space between them, all too pleased with himself. He wiggles his eyebrows as Keith lightly punches him in the shoulder.

“Incorrigible,” he repeats and grabs the front of Lance’s shirt to pull him into a kiss.

Day 23-HAPPY BIRTHDAY KEEF

It’s Keith’s birthday!!! Have the happiest of all happy birthdays my dear sweet traumatized child!

I only have 30 minutes till today is over, yay me!

I have never gone paragliding before, nor do I feel like researching so yeah.

—————————

Paragliding.

When Lance told Keith they would do anything he wanted for his birthday, he had expected something like ‘going to a party’ or ‘going for a hike’ or even just an eye roll.

But no.

Keith wants to jump out of a foreign aircraft on some random (but admittedly very pretty) planet with nothing but a flimsy little piece of fabric stopping him from falling to his death about a gazillion feet below him.

Now, Lance is not about to risk his life like this for no reason.

But Keith has his chin resting on Lance’s knee and is staring up at the blue paladin with wide, content eyes, and Lance cannot possibly say no to his precious bundle of boyfriend.

And that brings us to now, where Lance is fidgeting with the straps on his bulky harness. Their guide is a bulky man, towering at least a foot above them both. He hacks away at purple foliage blocking their way on the winding path that will deliver them to the top of a mountain.

Keith has a stupidly wild grin on his face. His eyes glow like fire and his hair is sticking out in every direction thanks to this planet’s rapidly fluctuating humidity. Lance is sure his own hair can’t be doing much better.

Keith is strangely chatty as he walks. A couple days before this, he had insisted that Lance just ignore his birthday, but it’s obvious that he’s enjoying every second of this. Their hands are clasped together between them both and swing back in forth as they hike. Both of their palms are sweating rivers by now. Lance squeezes tighter with every step.

Keith giggles softly. “You scared, McClain?” He nudges Lance’s shoulder with his own and his face is curved with a teasing smile.

Lance scoffs indignantly and mimes flipping a nonexistent ponytail over his shoulder.

“ I could out-fall you any day, Kogane.”

Keith snickers but gives no response. He goes back to pointing out every new thing they see with quiet joy. Lance can almost the sparkles flowing out of Keith.

He gets so caught up watching his partner that he doesn’t notice they’ve made it to the top till it’s too late.

There’s a blur of buckles and snappy instructions given to them by their guide and now Lance and Keith are strapped into their parachute for two.

Keith sends him a radiant grin. His eyes have fiery challenge swirled in. He drapes his arms over Lance’s shoulders and leans in close. “You ready?” he whispers.

Lance gulps and nods shallowly. He feels a trickle of sweat run down his temple.

“Here we go!”

And now they’re falling. He fails for a moments before throwing his arms around Keith’s back. All he can hear is the wind whipping around them and Keith’s faint jingle-laughs.

He has his eyes squeezed shut tight, but feels dumb after a moment and cracks one open just enough to see in front of him.

Keith is watching him carefully. His lips quiver, Lance can tell the other boy is laughing at him.

By now, the fabric has caught the wind, and they float gracefully through the air. Light shines through their paraglider and creates a splash of vibrant colors across their faces.

Keith throws his head back to cackle again. His hair looks terrible, black locks poking into his eyes and whipping around with the wind. His eyes are shut tight with amusement and Lance has the urge to trace the crinkles around his eyes. His skin is painted over with a mix of red and blue from their paraglider.

He’s a mess.

And he looks absolutely radiant.

If they weren’t already flying through the sky, Lance would say that his heart was carrying his straight up into the cosmos.

They make it back to the ground eventually, and Lance find himself missing the decent. They begin an awkward shuffle to untangle themselves from the mess that is their harnesses and scout out the area.

They’ve landed on a hill overlooking a sprawling market, and dammit if Lance isn’t going shopping, he just went through a life-threatening experience.

Keith is dragged around from stall to stall as Lance gets distracted by anything and everything that catches his eye.

He zones out for a while, occasionally lifting his arms or hair to let Lance try various accessories out on him.

He comes back to reality when Lance pats his head and looks down at his chest.

Dangling there is a red pendant. It’s a uncut stone almost like a ruby, but deeper with layers of pink and orange that remind Keith of a sunset. The best part is, the charm is naturally shaped so that it almost looks like a strawberry.

Lance’s smile overflows with affection. “I found that on some planet a while ago and thought of you. One of these merchants helped me put it on a string and you didn’t even notice because you zoned out so hard. Do you like it?”

There’s no words to describe the buzzing in Keith’s stomach correctly, so he just crashes his body against Lance, and they embrace so close they might’ve melted together.

Later, they’ll go back to the castle and Hunk will present a pretty cake to him. They’ll all have a movie night and a big dinner of almost-pizza (it’s actually soup but alienified to taste like bread, saude, and cheese) and Keith will spend the night pressed up against his boyfriend. Eventually they’ll be forced to go to bed and Keith will lay in Lance’s arms, turning the new necklace back and forth in his fingers endlessly.

And the whole time, a glow too big to possibly fit inside him will rush through his veins as he drowns in a happiness entirely surreal to him.

——————————————-

Yes, yep, it is totally still the 23rd, shush it.

HAPPY BIRTHDAY MY DARLING BABY BOY! You deserve the moon, the stars, and all the worlds above <3

Very short Keithtober thing to start the month off right 😎

Scars & stars #2023Keithtober

Keith used to look up at the stars from his shack in the desert. He'd dream of reaching out and being able to touch them hoping one day he'd go far enough to actually do so. They'd twinkle in his eyes brighter than any moon and he'd wish upon them his every hearts desire in secret.

The thing about being amongst the stars is no one tells you they've waged war in-between them. No one says they'll earn you scars that dance across your skin like stardust. So Keith does what he can in that same war that divides the stars from the ones he wished to touch.

He clings to the wishes he used to make hoping that maybe when this ends he can wish on them again. The stars are forever his friend and Keith will never let go of that ideal so long as he lives.

So here he is collecting his own stars in the form of scattered scars across his skin. Each scar a new addition to the constellations forming in his flesh.

Throughout the war he becomes his own galaxy each scar a new story to tell, a new mark to leave behind. Keith used to hate them, they were reminders of what the reality of the stars were but as he's settled into those scars he's realized

The stars were always there for him the only difference is now he collects them in a different way. They are so less beautiful than they were before and now they are something tangible, something he can actually touch just like he used to dream about.

View the prompt list thought up by @k1ance-a-lot & I! Here ↓ (& if ur feeling ambitious sae has a larger one posted too!)

This work is apart of Keithtober created by @/klance_a_lot and @/trappedinfixatn on twitter :)

Day 1: Stars

Keith's family had always admired stars.

Keith couldn't remember much from when he was little, but his pa had said it was his ma who spurred the obsession.

He said that his ma would take baby Keith in her arms, late at night, even as his pa chided her that Keith needed his sleep.

His ma would roll her eyes, "If he's anything like me, he doesn't need the full rest, especially when the stars are only out at night."

"You look so much like her, and I could never say no to her eyes. Then she'd hold you close and I'd have to face two pairs of them."

He always said it with a smile as he ruffled Keith's hair.

"I was a goner the days I met you and her."

It soon became a tradition for their little family. Keith, his ma and his pa. They'd go out on a blanket and Keith's ma would tell them all about the stars and constellations- some even his pa couldn't see!

But then, suddenly, it was just Keith and his pa. Keith was too young to understand then, too young to truly remember.

That never prevented his pa from indulging Keith in his love for stars and beyond it, because one day he hoped that they; his happy and sweet family, would share the stars again.
