All yours, Babooshka.

Tags: Yelena x fem!reader, soulmate!au, fluff with a bit of angts, historically completely incorrect, happy ending.

TW: depiction of war, brief mention of sex, homophobic slur a few times, suicide.

Synopsis: War is no place for loving, it never was, but maybe you could love her again in the 21 Century, i mean, only if you could stop feeling so overwhelmed by her only existence, but no matter what, you can't stop something that's meant to be.

Notes: one, i don't like the part 4, it just feels lazy to me, and two, i'm not a native, so please tell me if i made a mistake <3

Part one: When she was beautiful.

Yelena Armanovna, as strong as ten soldiers, the jewel of the battlefield, once was just a kid, her land was destroyed by the war, and as the only child of the house, she was forced to join the army, or else die there, she became a soldier, and she desired that the war wasn't real, that she hadn't being born into this world, that no one had. 

Everyone knew that she didn't talk a lot, most of their fellow soldiers didn't even knew where she came from, or if she was even from Russia, the only one she talked to was a nurse, her name was y/n y/ln, and like Yelena, no one knew about her origin, the nurse was way more talkative than Yelena, but she was assigned to other areas, staying with older soldiers, child soldiers, or severely injured soldiers, she was called by the child soldiers "angel", because of her comforting aura in hard times like those. 

These women wouldn't be able to meet eachother if it wasn't for the near-death experience Yelena faced one time. She got shot by a hidden enemy, fainted from the blood loss and was taken to the nursery right away, they couldn't afford to lose her. That's when you saw the look in her eyes, that look, and you knew that death was upon the jewel of the battlefield, and you knew that if she died, everyone else will die, you tried as hard as you could to stay cool during the surgery, but you were breaking, because of all the hope that was layed on her shoulders, she was the hope of everyone else in that place to return home someday, even if Russia didn't won the war, her strenght will keep a few alive. So there you were, assisting the surgery of the one that could do something to keep everybody safe and triying to act like it didn't meant a thing. At the end, she survived, and with her, the dreams of returning to your home, you were the one assigned to take care of her, and you were  going to make sure Yelena survived.

Part two: Uncanny how she remind her of her little lady. 

—"¿Yelena Armanovna?" You asked to the blonde girl laying on the bed. 

"Yes" she answered without taking her deep eyes out of the book. 

You told her that it was your bed she was in, pointing at your last name on the post-it next to the bed, then showing her the same mark on the bed across the room where it said: "J. Armanovna". 

"Ah, i hate when they misspeal it, it's Yelena with a "Y". Well, sorry, but this is the only bed i can sleep in, i'm kinda tall, you can use mine, i will give you a cookie for your kindness." She concluded with a little smile, you notices how her voice was way sweeter than you could think considering how menacing her looks were. 

At the end you decided to let her keep the bed, thinking it wouldn't mean anything, how wrong you were, now you could look at her sleeping without moving from the bed, and you did it, you thought it was so creepy and you wanted to stop, but you couldn't, why? Why were you obsessed with the sight of her closed eyes and dry lips at night? Why did she gave you this insane feeling of comfort and loss at the same time? It was so uncanny. 

No matter how weird It felt, you couldn't escape from Yelena, she was your roommate, and your classmate in some of your classes, on top of that, she was quite nice, a very smart lady with a pleasent personality, so you had no excuse to be mean or distant whenever she asked about your day, or started a small talk when the professor was late. Along with that sort-of friendship, you also knew Yelena's group; a beautiful girl with raven hair named Pieck, a blonde sarcastic man named Zeke, sometimes his brother Eren, and Hanji, a very excentric and funny person. These people were good friends to you, more than you expected, and that confirmed you: there was nothing wrong about Yelena, and you had no reason to be disturbed by her… Well, to be honest, there it was a little thing that made you upset, Pieck said that Yelena liked Zeke, again, you had no reason to be mad, but you were anyway. Why did you felt so attached to this lady? Why did you did what you did? 

It was 2:00 am, you couldn't sleep and you were so ashamed of being doing what that thing, what thing? Writing a love letter, a love letter to Yelena, with a pseudonym, with the first word that popped into your head: "Babooshka". You put perfume on the paper, and you signed it under that name, a scented letter, when you were finished, you let the envelope under your bed, and let it on Yelena's locker. 

Part three: How she was before the tears.

She woke up, feeling dazed and almost disappointed for being alive, when Yelena saw you, she recognized you for the stories of her colleagues, "Angel?" She guessed. 

"Hello", you smiled and giggle a bit for that nickname, "My name is y/n y/ln, and i will take care of you until you are better"

"If i'm with you means i'm already dead, you only take care of the ones that are almost there." Yelena asserted with a careless attitude. 

You wanted to protest, but it was meaningless, you wouldn't make her upset in her state, "May i ask how is your wound feeling? Are you in pain?" You kept that polite and sweet smile on your face. 

You kept taking care of Yelena, she healed way too soon, her body wanted to stay alive, but you couldn't say the same thing about her. You got to meet the real jewel of the battlefield, she told you her story, and you told her yours, you two knew everything about eachother, likes, dislikes, and sad pasts. You noticed how Yelena cried softly whenever she thought about her life before, her life before the tears, before the war, when she felt happy. And you also noticed that you could erase that tears, the touch between your soft hands and her ser face, was something magical, something that nobody could understand in that moment, but you two? You knew everything about it, about that love touch, those secret beautiful instants you shared. 

You were the one crying when Yelena got better, you were joyful for her recovery, but you knew that she had to go, and after that, you were going to lose her forever, or so you thought. "We can send eachother letters, and we can meet at night." She reassured you while you were laying on her chest, skin to skin, she kissed your forehead and caressed your cheeks with her strong and graceful hands, you purred at her cuddled your body in hers, you liked to kiss her scars, she had so many, it showed how determined she was on the battle and you liked that, the eyes and body of a soldier, and the heart of a suave lover, Yelena was always elegant, her movements could been rough and beastily, but she was soft and neat, whether i'll be fighting, talking, or embracing you. You could say with pride that only you knew this side of Yelena Armanovna, the subtle dominance she always established on her manner mixed with the chivalry and dulcet, that made the blonde woman truly enticing and amusing to anyone with enough luck to discover it.  

You knew that your letters to Yelena couldn't be too suspicious, so you took advantage of the fact that no one knew a thing about her, "Babooshka", was the pseudonym you choose, because everyone was going to think that it was from Yelena's grandmother. 

Your first letter to her, was this one: 

"My dearest Yelena, even though i promised that i wouldn't miss you too much, you have been away for three days and i'm already feeling the lack of your touch, and missing your dark eyes that make me shiver every time. I always thought that i would die without having loved, but you prove me wrong, i love you, i love every part of you, if i could picture perfection, it would be you, your laugh, your hair, the way you talk about home, everything about you would fit the word "perfect".

I swear to God and every star on the sky, that someday i will marry you, someday i will call you my wife, and you will be fully mine, and i will be fully yours. I know that you may think i'm silly because of this wish, but i know in my guts that i will become your wife, no matter how many years or Centuries i have to wait to do it.

All yours, Babooshka." 

When Yelena read the letter, she felt nothing but joy, she couldn't use words to describe how in love she was with everyone of your words, and giggled at the idea of marriage, of course she would marry you, she would marry you all the times that she could, she will make you hers every time, and she would submit herself to you every time. 

The two lovers kept sending and receiving love letters, and meeting at the comfort and hacen of the night, with only starts and the moon herself as a witness, sharing the intimacy of loving, not always touching two bodies, but the touch of two souls, two tormented souls who found love in a hopeless place.

It has been almost a year since the letters and secret meetings started to happen, Yelena and y/n couldn't be more in love, but tragedy was upon them. A soldier named Floch, started to notice the letters, and one day, he intercepted one, the love words were obviously not from Yelena's grandmother, and with fear of the jewel of the battlefield getting courted by a man who could get her pregnant and useless, this soldier tried to trace the letters, he spend days getting up triying to catch the mailman, and when he did it, he noticed that there wasn't an adress, so it must have been another soldier. After waiting for the guilty one to put the letter on the mail box, he saw y/n y/ln, the nurse, the angel, being a witness of how Satán corrupted the two women into a sapphic relationship, he ran into his superior's arms, showing him the evidence and warning him that given the nature of the letters, he may be grossed out by the devil's pervertion in the two women. 

The superior gave orders of keeping Armanovna here, and taking the nurse away, into a convertion field. 

Yelena was lucky to hear it, and she ran the fastest that she could into the critical patients nursery, where Y/N was. "Babooshka", she whispered at your ear while grabbing your arm yo take you away, you followed her into the woods. "What happened?" You asked with confution, you saw the look of pure fear un Yelena's eyes.

"They are going to tear us apart, they are are going to take you away, they will torture you there", she was ay the edge of crying, and so did you. 

"What can we do?" You couldn't think anything, you were all feelings

"Die, that's our only option, if we run away they will find anyway." The tall one tried to stay calm, failing

"You can't die, you mean hope for everyone!" Your conscience was heavy, you couldn't let Yelena die for you

"Y/n… You are the love of my life, if they take you away, i will kill myself anyway, i can't live without you, i can't just survive anymore, i need to live, when i'm with you i'm alive." Yelena wrapped you in a hug and you felt the tears falling on her face.

At the end, you agreed, Yelena already had a little bottle hidden in her uniform, you both took  sips until the bottle was empty, and you kissed and felt eachother like never before, because it was the last time, those were your last hours of life. You passed away after two hours, you were sleeping in Yelena's arms, while she was singing a lullaby from her hometown. 

She started with a cracked voice; "I know i do not have silver or gold like many others,

but i promise that i will wrap my bride in silk"  she stopped to cry a little.

"and i will love her with such depht,

that all my lacks she will forget, 

and she will love until the end… "

Yelena cried louder, and before falling asleep, and looked at your corpse with adoration.

I'm all yours, Babooshka. 

Part four: Babooshka

She woke up, ready for the exams, dressed with her usual suit, and put a lucky charm on her pocket. 

She was getting to class when she remembered, "my lucky pen is in my locker", so she went to get it, and saw a letter that fell sloppylly on her perfectly organized locker. She looked at the envelope and read "Babooshka", It clearly wasn't from her grandmother, one, because she would have written in "the tongue of mother Russia", two, because she was a bitter old woman that didn't write her, never, not even on her birthday, and three, because it was on her locker, not the mailbox. She opened it go find a love letter that has essence of a known perfume, she received the letter with a strange delight, smelling it and making a place on her locker for the piece of paper. 

These letters came one by one every week, and she knew they were from y/n, but Yelena couldn't help to love the letters, and she wanted to keep collecting more and more. 

She decided to shoot her shot after two months, when you two were studying together, she kissed your lips out of nowhere, leaving you completely confused and flustered.

"I- i thought you liked Zeke…" 

"Oh, i did" Yelena acted so shamelessly "But then you came."

"Do you say that a lot?" You asked annoying trying to shield from your notorious blush

"No, just you, Babooshka. I don't know why, but you make me fee… alive? I feel so close to you since i saw you." 

You didn't know what to do, you felt the same way, and you were way too nervous to think a witty reprise. 

"Why did you choose the pseudonym Babooshka?" Yelena have been wanting to ask you for a long time. 

"For real? I don't know, it just, familiar? I guess" 

"Ok, then" she smiled and pulled you closer

"I'm all yours, Babooshka."

The Apron by Bloodsbane (angst, fluff) Shit. The word buzzed around Saitama’s skull like a mosquito, one he truly had no chance of squashing between his fingers. Shit, he thought, observing his disciple/roommate/best friend as he scrubbed furiously at a spot on the floor with a rag.

After that, he pays attention.

Phantom Limb by batneko Genos doesn’t have a penis, but accidentally discovers his brain can make do.

Genos weighed his options while carefully maintaining a poker face. Saitama just kept staring at him with a blank, unreadable expression. “That’s. An abrupt question, sensei.” It wasn’t abrupt. Genos had lived there for months and fallen hard and fast. It was shocking it took this long for something to come up.

❛❛ This is a game you cannot hope to win!  ❜❜

Mafia AU where we focus on Coraline’s children, and their true colors

@grotesquegabby Even tho it’s tell the end, Lennie is in this :3

“Mother, why are we here again?” asked a child who sat on a table adorned with a pure white tablecloth and beautiful flowers and plants as a centerpiece. In fact, the entirety of the venue where the child was had a wonderful arrangement all around, sunlight pouring through every window and flowers blooming everywhere, hanging from the ceiling, clinging onto walls, they were everywhere.

“Because Mr. Jennings has offered us all a treat, darling. We are also to discuss some business manners whilst you all eat.”her mother replied, motioning to a man who sat beside her, this man being her date for the day.

“Your kids are going to love this place Coraline. I’ve heard so many good things about it, never been here however.” he glanced over at the woman who gave a polite smile. “I’ve been waiting for a special occasion, and this is obviously one.”

“What’s the food like?” one of the other kids asked.

“It’s Italian, very formal. Every single ingredient is brought over from Italy, so all the food is the absolute best.”

“How can you be so sure if you’ve never even been here?” 

“Dante, hush.” Coraline turned to the boy before he nodded, a waiter coming along and handing everybody their own menu. “It’s all in Italian.”

She looked through every page of the menu book, feeling a tad bit concerned before her date gave a hearty chuckle.

“Not to worry sweet Coraline. I happen to be fluent in Italian, so you and the children can sit back and relax. I’ll handle the ordering and make sure you receive only the best.”

Coraline’s children all glanced at each other, sharing looks that could only describe the irritation neither of the adults noticed.

“If you say so.”Coraline set down her menu, nodding at the children. The boys looked at Lily, waiting for a command, and she set down her menu which prompted them to follow along.

“Ciao bella famiglia.(Hello lovely family.)” a voice came, everybody turning to the spot in between the adults where a waiter holding a notepad stood. “How are we doing all today on this fine day?”

“Very well, thank you.”Coraline felt as the waiter took her hand, placing a kiss on it as Mr. Jennings was not looking too pleased at the sight. However, he smiled once the waiter turned to him.

“Have you your orders ready signore?(sir?)”

“Oh, yes. But let us order drinks first.” he glimpsed at Coraline who nodded in agreement. “We’ll have the Masseto wine, and the children will each have a soda. Which flavors-”

“Actually.” Lily spoke up as Mr. Jennings turned to her. “I’ll have the Holy Basil tea with both ginger and lemon. Hold the sugar.”

“And I would like a Cinnamon Berry Ice Tea with additional berries.”Dante smiled before the twins followed.

“And we would like glasses of water with as much ice as possible.”

“And I, a pink champagne.”Coraline turned to the waiter as Jennings was shocked. “Bring a Masseto as well, for him.”

“Of course signorita.(Ms.) And what of your meal?”

“Would an appetizer be alright with all of you?”Jennings looked over at the children who each shrugged, making him sigh in relief on the inside. He soon grabbed the menu and read through what he could tell was the appetizers section, recognizing one word that came out of Lily’s mouth, so this was bound to please her thus pleasing the others.

“We’ll have the, uh...insalad dee basil caprise.”

“Do you mean the insalata di basilico caprese(caprese basil salad?)?”

“We don’t like salad.”Dante commented before the others murmured in agreement, Jennings in turn clenching a fist under the table.

“Surprise us with anything.”

“And, what of your entrees?”

Jennings clenched his jaw as he attempted to contain his anger, looking over the entree section which he did not understand.

“What’s...what do you recommend?”

“Well, let’s see. We have the Pomodoro Tortellacini, Gamberetto Jumbo avvolto nel prosciutto crudo(Proscuitto Wrapped Jumo-Shrimp),Zuppa di Mais (Corn Chowder), Spaghetti alla caponata di melanzane siciliane(Sicilian Eggplant Caponata Spaghetti), and the Mahi-Mahi alla griglia(Grilled Mahi-Mahi).”

“Well, I, uh-”

“Il Mahi-Mahi alla griglia contiene basilico fresco?” Lily questioned the waiter, and to Jennings’ surprise, all in perfect Italian.

“Sì, certo! Contiene anche gnocchi al pesto e pomodori bruschetta.” eagerly replied the waiter. “E' questo che desideri?”

“Si', per favore. E se possibile, aggiungere del basilico extra e un limone appena tagliato.“ nodded Lily before turning to Mr. Jennings with an innocent smile. “ What are you going to order Mr. Jennings?”

Jennings looked over at Coraline who was proudly staring at her daughter, never tearing her eyes away from her.

“I’m sorry, did I not mention that my children are fluent in all European dialects?”

_____________

“Quell'uomo è assolutamente idiota. Non posso credere che mamma abbia accettato la sua offerta di appuntamento.(That man is absolutely idiotic. I can't believe mom accepted his date offer.).” whispered one of the children, this being Dante who popped a cherry tomato in his mouth with his siblings nodding.

“Nemmeno io. Ovviamente non gli piacciamo nemmeno noi.(Me neither, he obviously doesn’t even like us.).” Rayden rolled his eyes, staring right at the man who told Coraline a joke. Or at least, it was an attempt at a joke, especially considering how Coraline merely gave him a look.

“Beh non ci piace neanche a noi.(Well we don’t like him either.)” Lily posited, stabbing her knife into her meal, clutching the utensil tightly as she glared at Jennings.

“Lily, cosa faremo con questo verme?(Lily, what are we going to do about this creep?)” Robyn leaned in to quietly ask, the girl craning her head as she felt the warm sunlight from the window behind her hit her. She shifted in her chair, turning and noticing that the bottom of the window had small glasses that could be easily moved to let in a calm breeze. Lily’s eyes widened as she then spotted a friend right outside.

“Noi aspettiamo...(We wait...)”Lily climbed off of her chair, moving one of the glass pieces to allow her hand to go through the window.

“Cossa facciamo?(What do we do?)” Rayden leaned in towards Lily who placed a finger on her lips, trying to keep their intentions secret.

“Creare una distrazione, portare via la mamma. (Create a distraction, get mom away.)”

“Mommy!” Rayden called Coraline, prompting her to turn to him.

“Yes sweetheart?”

“I need to go to the bathroom.”

“Would you like me to accompany you?”

“Oh, I can do that.”Jennings already stood up, but Rayden shook his head.

“I want my mommy to go with me!”Rayden frowned before Coraline stood up and the little boy hopped off his chair to run to her.

“It’s alright, I’ll take him. You sit tight and look after the other children.”Coraline then excused herself, walking away with Rayden who caught Jennings gaze on Coraline’s behind.

“Eyes over here Mr. Jennings.” sounded Dante’s voice before the man turned to him and the other kids. “What were you looking at, sir?”

“Nothing, making sure your mom gets to where she has to safely.”

“More like her posterior.” Lily commented as she cut into her mahi-mahi. “Mr. Jennings, what are your intentions with our mother?”

“No ill intentions, that’s for sure. Just-”

“Marriage? The bragging right to say that you have a trophy wife? Or perhaps the right to all her fortune and business? Status?”Lily fluttered her eyelashes, eating a piece of her fish before staring at the man. “No need to keep up with your facade, we have gone through this several times, and it all ends the same way.”

“Oh but Lily-”

“You call me Liliosa because you have no right to call me Lily.”the girl slammed a hand on the table, startling Jennings. “How about you take a napkin, write that you had an emergency, and walk away before we make you regret even inviting us?”

This made Jennings’ smile falter before he gave a frown, leaning in closer to the children who all glared at him.

“Now you brats listen up.”he started, gritting his teeth as he made sure nobody was around. “I don’t care what any of you think or feel because one day, you’ll all have to call me ‘dad’, right before I send each and every one of you to different boarding schools far away from my future wife and me.”

“Oh, how cliche of you Mr. Jennings.” Robyn rolled his eyes before taking a sip from his water. “Have you any other villanous schemes from movies like The Parent Trap?”

“Or Back to the Future II?” Dante gave an unimpressed look before Lily grabbed a knife, stabbing it right onto the table, right next to Jennings’ hand which caught is attention and surprised him greatly.

“This is a game you cannot hope to win.” Lily softly spoke as she was now in Jennings’ face, patting his head. “This is our game, and we have never lost once.”

“Well, be prepared to feel defeat for the first time.” Jennings replied, watching as Lily sat back down in her seat as she and the other boys started to eat, casually as if nothing had ever happened for Coraline had now come back.

“Here, let me help you.” the man immediately stood up, helping Coraline into her chair as Rayden sat next to the others. Jennings soon sat back down, realizing that Coraline gave him an odd look.

“Is something wrong dear?”

“Um, well. It appears you may have something on your head.”

“Has my hair been undone? Here let me-” Jennings reach up to slick his hair down, but was confused at the touch of something slimy...snotty...He continued feeling for a bit, not knowing why his head felt in such a way, until there was a loud croak.

“A frog!” Robyn pointed at Jennings’ head, laughing loudly before the man jumped up completely startled. He attempted to remove the frog, not even realizing that it had hopped onto the table, onto his plate.

The children all laughed and giggled upon noticing this, and Jennings took notice as well, eventually flipping over his plate which caused the frog to hop away and towards Lily. 

She grabbed the amphibian before clibing off her chair and crawling towards the window with a giggle, setting the frog back outside.

“Thank you friend.” she whispered to it, patting its head before it hopped away into a nearby pond. Lily then sat back in her chair, taking a sip from her tea as Jennings finally settled down in his seat.

“Are you alright sir?” a waiter came by.

“No! I mean, of course.” Jennings contained his rage, fixing his suit and hair as Coraline blinked in surprise. “May I...may I get another plate?”

“Certainly sir, right away. Let us move you to another table as well, yes?”

“Splendid.”Jennings muttered out, flustered due to the fury he hid and the humiliation he. The whole group moved to another table as waiters brought over each of their plates, but the twins decided to help in carrying their ice filled cups of water.

“Poor Mr. Jennings.”

“I agree Robyn.” Rayden nodded as the man sat down, approaching him with their glasses in hand.

“We hope you feel alright after what just happened.” Robyn gave a smile to Jennings to gave a discreet glare to him.

“Oh yes.”Rayden smiled, both of the twins giving a comforting pat on the back to Jennings. However, this pat happened to be with the same hands that held onto their icy drinks, which were soon spilled inside the back of Jennings’ coat.

Once again, Jennings stood up and freaked out, Coraline watching as he danced around like a complete fool while attempting to take the ice and water out of his coat.

“Dance monkey, dance!” Dante laughed out loud as the man removed his coat to reveal his soaked shirt.

“Sir! I everything-”

“I’m alright!” Jennings snapped at a waiter who attempted to aid him. “I’m alright, just...I just got a little wet is all.”

Jennings turned to the twins who quietly snickered among themselves before lifting a finger to catch the waiter’s attention.

“May we please have glasses of water with ice to the top?” they asked in unison before the waiter nodded and left to bring what they had asked for.

“Mr. Jennings.”Coraline called the man’s attention who turned to her. “Are you in the condition to continue this...discussion? We have not yet spoken of your business.”

“Oh, oh yes. I am so sorry Coraline.” Jennings nodded with a deep sigh. “Of course, let us talk about that. I have a proposal you won’t be able to deny!”

“Idiota.(Idiot.)”

“Lei li nega tutti.(She denies all of them).”

“Infatti.(Indeed.)”

Dante went back to picking his food as the others continued to eat. But soon enough, Dante looked up as he caught a certain scent.

Fire.

He glanced around the restaurant before he caught sight of a waiter carrying a large platter with some shish kebabs, every single one flaming.Dante pondered at it for a moment, tapping his chin before he felt somebody touch his hand. Once turning he spotted Lily, and she gave a silent nod which made Dante smirk.

They both watched as the waiter walked around and eventually neared their table. One in range, Dante stuck out a leg, causing the waiter to trip over and drop the platter of flaming shish kebabs which made everybody around gasp in fear.

However, it brought a relief to the children when the shish kebabs only landed on Jennings, nowhere else. Phew.

“Oh shit!” Jennings yelled out, jumping up from his chair and grabbing whatever drink he could get ahold of, splashing it onto himself but only caused the flames on his coat to grow.

Everybody watched as the man ran around, eventually coming towards the table where the group had previously been sitting. Since it was placed right next to a window, Jennings smashed through it causing everybody to gasp before Coraline and the kids ran over to the broken window. They watched Jennings run and jump into the pond as a police officer ran over to said area.

“Sir, are you alright!? I heard there was an emergency involving fire.” the officer stood by the pond, helping Jennings up who tore his arms away from him.

“No, I’m not alright!” Jennings yelled at the officer. “Those fucking brats in there! They did this to me!”

“Brats? I...pardon?” the officer turned to where the man pointed an accusing finger, spotting four kids and an all too familiar woman. “Sir, that’s rather improper that you refer to children in such a way.”

“Children? Children!?Those aren’t fucking children! They’re the Devil’s Spawns!” Jennings exploded with a full face of red. “They have ruined this entire afternoon since I first met them today!”

The officer and Jennings soon heard the sound of heels clicking towards them, both turning as Jennings was soon thrown to the ground with a powerful smack to the face,

“Never refer to my children with such insults again.” Coraline hissed at the man before the officer leaned down with a polite smile.

“Sir, I’m going to have to ask you leave.”

“But, Coraline-!”

“Sir.” the officer repeated. “Please leave this woman and her children alone. Now.”

Jennings stood up and gave a glare to the children who were still standing in the window, each one giving a sly smile and wave before he walked away pretty soaked.

Once alone, Coraline turned to the officer who looked up at her with a much sweeter smile, though he had already looked sweet before.

“Officer Green.”

“Ms. D’Vitt. It’s so nice to see you here, but I wish it had been under better circumstances. Are you alright?”

“Yes, I am. I am feeling much better.” Coraline smiled down at the officer who gave a nod.

“Mother? Who is this?” came Lily’s voice as she and the boys now hid behind Coraline, peeking out to look at Lennie.

“Oh, Officer Green. I’d like to you to meet my children”

“Oh! So these are the little ones?” Lennie smiled knowingly, giving a wave to them as he noticed some kind of shyness yet tension. “I suppose this is...Liliosa, was it?”

“How do you know my name?”

“We met some other night, darling.”Coraline played with Lily’s hair bow. “I told him about all of you.”

“Yes she did, and you all look like such nice kids.” Lennie grinned as the children all whispered behind Coraline, Lily eventully stepping out from behind her mother to stand before Lennie. She held out a hand to him, expecting a shake, yet was instantly surprised when Lennie placed a kiss on her hand.

“It is a pleasure meeting Coraline’s children.” he politely greeted, then feeling as Lily grabbed his hand and gave it a tight squeeze. Lennie could feel that she was trying to threaten him, yet he smiled.

“Of course. We just want you to know that we love our mother very much, so much. We would be angry if anybody hurt her.”

“Oh, Lily, hush.” Coraline pat her daughter’s head, then turning to look behind where the broken window still was of course. “Officer Green, may I ask for a quick favor?”

“Of course!”

“Can you keep an eye on the children whilst I go to pay our part of the bill?”

“Yes, don’t worry about it Ms. D’Vitt.”Lennie nodded before Coraline walked back. The officer looked back at the children who individually gave him a glare, whispering to each other in the Italian dialect once again.

“E' terribilmente basso per essere un poliziotto.(He’s awfully short for a cop.)"

"Sorride troppo. Pensavo che i poliziotti dovessero essere più cattivi e minacciosi.(He smiles too much. I thought cops were supposed to be meaner and threatening.)”

"E' meglio che non sia un altro di quei pretendenti idioti che cercano di corteggiare la madre.(He better not be another one of those idiotic suitors trying to court mother.)”

"Un altro di quei pretendenti?Cosa vuoi dire?(Another one of those suitors?""Whatever do you mean?)”

The children’s eyes widened as they all turned to Lennie who was still smiling, looking as polite as always, hearing as he replied to them.

"Lo ammetto, tua madre è una donna molto bella. Ma noi non siamo che semplici conoscenti.(I do admit, your mother is a very beautiful woman. We are but mere acquaintances however.)”

Their expressions were filled with complete shock as they looked at Lennie, his smile never faltering. He saw Lily turn to her brothers, whispering in a different dialect this time.

“Er kann Italienisch! Was, wenn er Mom das Zeug erzählt, das wir gesagt haben?(He knows Italian! What if he tells mom the stuff we said?)”

“Oh, ich würde nie über euch Kinder reden.(Oh, I would never tattle on you children.)” Lennie took a step towards the once again horrified kids. “Es tut mir leid, ich spreche auch zufällig Deutsch.(I’m sorry, I also happen to speak German.)”

Before any of the kids could speak again, they were interrupted by the sound of Coraline’s heels on the ground as she returnd.

“I’m back.Thank you so much Officer Green for watching over the kids.”

“Oh please Ms. D’Vitt.” Lennie chuckled while looking at her. “It’s no problem at all, and you can call me Lennie if you’d like.”

“Well then, Lennie.”Coraline quietly chuckled. “If we are to ever see each other again, or even know, you may call me Coraline.”

Lennie gave a nod as he kept on smiling at her, then directing his gaze to the children. Coraline soon gave a quiet sigh as Lily and Dante held each of her hands.

“I’m afraid we must be on our way now. I promised the children I would take them to the beach after this lunch.”

“Oh of course, then I’ll be on my way as well.” Lennie bowed his head slightly. “I hope to see you around some other time, Coraline.”

“As do I.” Coraline nodded, both adults parting ways as the children followed behind her like ducklings. They took one glance behind to look at Lennie who had turned to smile at Coraline. The children quietly scoffed at this before turning to look at their mother, surprised to see that she was smiling with a natural pink hue on her cheeks.

Coming back to earth

Summary: Aang and Katara have to deal with citizens who aren't too happy with their new plan.

Word count: 1,548

Author's note: I felt really conflicted while trying to figure out what to write for this. From what we know so far, Katara was never officially a councilwoman, so it's hard to grasp something. I didn't wanna write an AU, so I only had one option that would fit: the timeline between the end of the war and before the founding of Republic City. Since this is the only time when Katara has been shown to participate in council meetings in the comics. I imagined that the story takes place at the same time as, or after "Imbalance", but since we don't know what's gonna go down there, I'm gonna make some wild guesses.

----------x----------

"Do you really think this is going to work?" Katara wondered as she and Aang exited the temporary building of city hall. Being back in the industrial city wasn't as pleasant as either of them had expected. The airbender entwined their hands and gave it a squeeze.

"I hope so. This is the most reasonable solution we've come up with so far."

There'd been countless conflicts between benders and nonbenders, some of which had turned rather violent. Hence a similar council meeting that was held in Yu Dao, where representatives from each nation were present, had just ended. Almost the entire Team Avatar had attended, except for Fire Lord Zuko, because a Fire Nation representative was already in town.

During the meeting, Aang had proposed a crazy idea, which no longer seemed as crazy once everybody had given it some thought. His plan was to unite all of the villages running along the west coast, where both Earth Kingdom and Fire Nation citizens had already mixed during the past hundred years, and create a fifth nation, where benders and nonbenders from all over the world could live together in peace. Nobody would be looked down on for their ethnicity, their bending abilities or lack of for that matter. Most importantly, if Aang wanted to be able to stay together with Katara, it'd be a perfect place to live in for the two of them. It almost sounded like a dream.

Of course, not everybody saw it as a good thing. Rumours spread around town about the so-called "fifth nation" being formed. Two Earth Kingdom noblemen were sitting on a bench on the main street outside of city hall. From what other pedestrians heard from their loud conversation while passing them, they weren't pleased.

"Can you believe that? This is outrageous! They're just going to rob us of our land!" the bigger guy exclaimed, waving his hands in the air. His plump figure donned upper class Earth Kingdom attire. He'd been living near the booming town decades before the sacred land of the air nomads was overtaken by the refinery. Now his own land was about to be divided into half - one half remaining under Earth Kingdom territory, the other falling under this new nation.

"Those youngsters know nothing about politics. Who even put them in charge of such important roles in the first place?" the second nobleman asked whilst stroking his long grey beard. He was slightly taller and older than his companion. He considered himself an expert in politics due to having good relationships with other noblemen from Ba Sing Se, who kept him informed about the progress of events during the war.

The two noticed how the Avatar and his friend came out of the building where the council meeting was held. The noblemen slowly stood up from the bench, with the older one grabbing his cane so he could walk. The fat one adjusted his belt higher and blew on his shiny golden rings, wiping them clean against his robes before turning to his companion.

"Shall we?"

Receiving a confirming nod, they began heading towards the couple, to show them exactly what they thought of their new plan. Aang and Katara didn't suspect a thing while they continued their walk down the street. As Sokka would say, they were too busy 'oogying' around. As they walked past each other, the shorter nobleman earthbended a small rock right in front of Katara's foot, which forced her to trip.

"Ow!" she yelped and fell on her knees, but luckily managed to put her hands on the ground so she wouldn't fall flat on her face. Aang immediately knelt down beside her.

"Katara! Are you okay?"

"Yeah, I'm okay.. I don't know what happened there," she said as she sat down and began dusting her tunic. Little did she know that, despite not being able to react fast enough to prevent her from hurting herself, Aang had sensed where the earthbending had come from.

He looked around and noticed the two men responsible walking the other way. They stared back and laughed at them, until they understood that the airbender had spotted them, after which they looked away and pretended like they hadn't seen anything.

"Hey! You two! Who do you think you are? You don't treat girls like that!" Aang shouted to them. He also earned the attention of other passers-by, who first looked at him, then at each other in confusion. The noblemen turned around and slowly approached Aang and Katara. The shorter one pointed a finger at himself.

"Who do we think we are? Shouldn't we be asking you that question? You and your little friends can't just come waltzing in here and divide up our land!"

"We aren't dividing up your land. We're trying to come up with a solution that'd make everybody happy," Aang said as he grabbed Katara's hands and helped her stand up.

"There is only one solution, Avatar. Send those ash-makers back to their homeland. These occupied lands that you're trying to form into this so-called 'fifth nation' are Earth Kingdom territory!" the taller nobleman added, tapping his cane on the ground.

"No, you're wrong. Now they're both Earth Kingdom and Fire Nation territory. This is a whole new world we're looking at. Do you really expect us to order people to leave their homes behind? After they've lived here for the past hundred years?" Katara chimed in.

"Shut your mouth, little girl! I was talking to the Avatar."

"Excuse me!?" Katara exclaimed as Aang took a step forward.

"Hey! That's my girlfriend you're talking to."

"I don't care if she's your girlfriend. She's a simple rube from the south who shouldn't put her nose where it doesn't belong. This is our land and she shouldn't have a say in who gets to live here or not."

"She-"

"Oh, really? And who should have a say, then?" Katara interrupted before Aang could start defending her again, holding him back by laying her hand on his chest. She stepped right in front of the taller nobleman, crossed her arms and glared up at him.

"Only the honest Earth Kingdom citizens, such as ourselves, who've suffered the most because of this war. You southerners had it easy, living on your small iceberg in peace, cut off from the rest of the world. It's not like the Fire Nation came and conquered your land and claimed it as their own. We've had hundreds and thousands of families torn apart, troops killed on the front line. What's your small village done compared to that?"

Katara felt how every inch of her body became filled with rage after every selfish statement. She was so close to snapping because of his ignorance. She took a deep breath and spoke in a low, furious tone.

"You have no idea what my tribe went through during the war. All of our waterbenders were imprisoned. My mother died trying to protect me. Our men journeyed to the Earth Kingdom to help you fight against the Fire Nation. Women and children were left to fend for themselves. My friends had to leave their home behind and come here to make a living. My boyfriend's entire culture was destroyed, every one of his people were killed."

At this point, she raised a finger under his nose.

"Don't you dare compare your kingdom's suffering to ours. Even though my tribe is much smaller, that doesn't mean our suffering was, too."

Katara glanced at Aang, then took a step back and laid a supportive hand on his shoulder. Her gaze remained fixed on his grey eyes, her face softened and she smiled a little.

"We're all in the same boat here."

"I highly doubt it. It's not enough that those ash-makers have stolen our land, our homes and our jobs, now you want to allow your snow savages to come here, too? I suggest you go to the nearest harbour, find yourself a boat and go straight back home to that icy inferno where you belong. You foreigners aren't welcome here," the short nobleman warned her. He spat in front of Katara's shoes before they both turned around to walk away.

She growled, her hand clenched into a fist and ready to bend the water out of her pouch, but Aang put a hand on her shoulder to return the favour. He held her back.

"C'mon, sweetie. Let's go.. those two aren't worth it."

He felt how her stiff body relaxed, her shoulders slumped. She let out a heavy sigh and nodded, allowing Aang to guide her the other way.

"Filthy peasant," the shorter nobleman muttered to his mate. Katara heard it and in a split second she summoned the water from her pouch into a whip and whacked it against the backs of their heads. The men cowered and rubbed at the painful spot, turning around in shock.

"That's for calling me a peasant, insulting my people, and my tribe," Katara said before she spun around and walked away.

"Don't ever talk to my girlfriend like that again!" Aang threatened them one more time, then followed Katara. The noblemen felt disgusted when they saw him give her a soft kiss on her cheek, their hands entwined as they headed their way.

A VOLTRON PENTATONIX AU?? AKA LANCEYONCE AND CREW

Okay so sit the fuck down everyone I’m documenting this annoying ass dream that has been haunting me for the best few months. 

The Basis: So we all know about Pentatonix, right? (If you don’t, it’s an a capella group that remakes the old songs of famous artists to give them a new sound. They also have a few of their own original pieces). So, basically, imagine the Voltron gang doing this, except not a capella. They remake the tracks and beats to near perfection in order to pull this off.

The group consists of Allura, Pidge, Shay, Hunk, Lance, Keith, and Shiro, with Matt and Coran doing background work. 

Now to the Details.

Lance

Lance is in charge of any and all Beyonce-related performances.

The group itself started with him. He performed to her songs with his own original choreography and everything. Sometimes he would collab with Hunk. 

He picks his own songs

He does nothing half-assed in this group. He’s very nitpicky with lighting and stage set up because he needs to achieve that WOW! factor

Sometimes he goes a little overboard and the team needs to reel him in really quick because they can’t light fireworks on stage

He was disappointed but then he realized glitter and confetti cannons were a much better idea

Because all of Yonce’s songs have a certain feel to him, he chooses based on how his life is going

Happy? Fun? Well-off? TIme to whip out his favorites.

Sad? Had an argument? Where’s his sad stuff at.

Somebody died? Feelings of worhlessnesss? There’s a song for that, too. 

All his outifts are chosen by Shay while Allura does his makeup

These three are besties they do all the styling stuff tgether                

Lance either wears practical shoes or heels there is no in between

Performing in heels is a little harder but he manages because he’s just that good

He was excited to perform “6 Inch” because he had the perfect shoes for that

A lot of the songs he sings are romantic-like so he does a partner dance with Keith

One time the two had gotten into a fight, so he performed the most of the Lemonade album and some of the songs from the 4 album

Keith was in tears and ended up dancing with him again

The crowd went fucking nuts

His favorite songs to perform are probably Partition and any other song with sexual lyrics bc he gets too into it sometimes

Keith loves it but at the same time he blushes really hard

It’s funny to watch

Before a concert he discovers that his uncle died and that hit him hard because they were very close

And yet he still performed but with more passion

And he added the song I Was Here because death is such a sudden thing and he could die any second now just like his uncle did

The others actually played the background instruments for him (cello, piano, ect.)

Lance responds to as many fans as he can on his social media

The boy has Tumblr, Instagram, Snapchat, Twitter, and he’s the main one who runs the group’s Youtube channel

Sometimes he holds Q and A’s on Periscope 

During interviews he answers nearly everything meant for him

He also makes up the names of his fans and it changes every time

“Sup Lancers”

“How’s it shaking, my Bluebells?”

“What questions are in store for me today, Voltribe?”

It’s out of control

Whenever Lance isn’t performing he’s on back up vocals/dancing

That’s the rules: If it isn’t your turn, you work your ass off with back up and background dancing

If he’s feeling a bit peppy he’ll also certain Jason Derulo songs

Hunk

Let’s establish one thing: If Lance is Beyonce than Hunk is Nicki Minaj

It started off as a joke at first, but Hunk found it really fit with how he felt

And his flow is DOPE so win-win

He performs literally every song out there by her with no shame because Nicki Minaj has been his Girl for Years and she gives him confidence

His outfits slay all the time. All. The. Time. 

They’re pretty much renditions of Nicki Minaj’s own performance outfits, but designed to make him feel comfortable

Shay helps him tailor all his outfits and even designs them sometimes

He prefers boots and sneakers when performing because heels kill his feet

His favorite song to perform is the Flawless remix with Lance because they kill everyone within a 20 ft radius

The choreography is his favorite as well

He even installs fire things to shoot flames up from the stage

He also has a really nice voice, but he prefers to rap than sing since he’s better with low notes

Sometimes he collabs with Shay, who’s the group’s other prime rapper

They’re fire onstage and off

Hunk loves Feeling Myself a lot because his confidence rises

So many people find it odd that Nicki Minaj is his persona

Hunk is so kind and timid?? He’s very smart and not one who curses unless very angry or upset

But when he’s rapping he gets all flashy and bold and suddenly he’s cursing all the time very clearly

His moms come to every concert, along with the McClain parents because they love supporting their sons together

Hunk’s moms always jokingly scold him about how provocatively he dresses and his potty mouth but they really don’t care

They smother him in kisses and gifts and flowers 

Once, for their anniversary, Hunk asked Lance to perform “Ring Off” for his moms while he put together a video collage in their honor

The song fits their relationship so well

They cried very hard

When the Moana soundtrack was released, he got his own night to perform the whole thing with his family

He loved the event; it was the first time his whole family had done something together in such a long time

Hunk also helps Pidge and Coran with technical stuff likes lights and smoke affects

At interviews he takes shit from nobody and likes to brag about all the times he’s been right

Spoiler Alert: It’s a lot

He also shares embarrassing stories of the team 

A lot of the gossip actually comes from him tbh

“Spoiler alert: there may or may not be a surprise performance some time soon.”

“A little birdie told me that two of our members are getting a little buddy buddy, so look out for updates on that.”

“Oh, y’all are gonna LOVE my outfit for the next tour. It’s gonna be lit.”

The outfit was, in fact, on fire.

Allura

To complete the Power Trio, Allura is Rihanna

Sorry I don’t make the rules

Except I do lmao

This role originally was gonna go to Shay but then Shay realized she loved to rap so Allura hopped on it

Allura loves Rihanna fashion choices 

A lot of her outfits are based off of RiRi actually

Her favorite album has got to be the ANTI album

It’s a masterpiece 

Just so well written

Best songs ever

The fans love when Allura comes on stage because she provokes so much emotion and her voice carries so well

Not to mention her British accent gives a different feel from Rihanna’s Barbadian one

She has a very diverse cast of fans and probably recieves the most fanmail out of everyone

Lance and Hunk are second

Lance is Bitter

Shay’s third

 Keith, Pidge, and Shiro are tied for fourth

All of her songs are choreographed by herself

Her makeup artist is either Lance or Shay

Depends on who wins the coin toss that day

With Shay her eyeliner is swoopy and sharp with rinestones 

With Lance it’s artsy eye makeup and glitter

Allura likes both

All of her outifts are planned from the the top to the socks she wants to wear

Her hair is so long that it makes styling it very easy?? Like she has so many options

If she doesn’t style it herself than either Shiro or Coran does because they always have great ideas

For every performance, Allura opens with a quote related to what songs she plans to perform

Everyone thinks their from philosophers or something but really she’s quoting tumblr posts

She has the same social media as Lance, and they often compete for followers and such

All of her stuff is very pastel space

The pink marks under her eyes are in fact tattoos

She got them along with Coran for her 18th birthday 

They’re her trademark

Nobody knows if her hair is natural or dyed at first

It’s naturally really bright she just added highlights to it

When not performing, Allura is Lance’s number one backup singer

Sometimes Lance will let her perform Beyonce songs

Specifically Who Runs The World (Girls) bc that’s her actual anthem and Lance feels disrespectful 

And Daddy Lessons, which makes her emotional

Both she and Lance sing Pretty Hurts together because it applies to both of them 

Allura and Lance have a contest for who’s the Better ‘Yonce

Lance wins

Lance and Allura are constantly accused of being siblings due to their bond

It’s a running gag in the fandom for quite sometime until Lance breaks the rumors

Some of her songs involve couple dances with Shiro

It’s amazing watching them interact with one another because they’re so gentle with each other and their love is so Real that it almost seems like you’re intruding on a moment

At interviews, Allura is constantly bragging about how strong she is 

“Hunk and I are clearly the strongest ones here. We haven’t determined who holds reigning title, however.”

The two them proceed to arm wrestle.

It’s a tie

Everyone is crying. Everyone.

Sometimes, if she’s feeling it, she’ll do Marina and the Diamonds

Everyone takes a back seat to her then because she absolutely slays

Pidge

Pidge doesn’t normally sing but when she does it’s Hayley Kiyoko

Pidge loves her 

Very much

She probably dresses the most simple out of them all 

Her main style is shorts with stockings or knee socks and a loose fitting top

She let’s her hair grow out to her shoulders

She appreciates both long and short hair, and finds this a happy medium for her

She sports an undercut and the fans go crazy

Everybody finds Pidge adorable and most girls her age want to be her

Glitter! All over her eyes! Brings out the green!

Is either wearing glasses or contacts but mostly contacts

Pidge’s style is definitely K-Pop Idol

She’s a great dancer and does tons of flips 

Everybody loves throwing her in the air

Pidge is in charge of all music and technology and such. Everything must be run by her  

She adds the best effects to performances and is constantly praised

Pidge has social media too but it’s limited to Twitter and Instagram

Her livestreams are by far the fan favorite

It’s full of her pulling pranks and giving sneak peeks into practices and making bets

“Lmao ten bucks Lance is gonna be tripped by Allura”

He is, in fact, tripped by Allura

“You all owe me at our next concert

She films bloopers for the YouTube page

Most of the bloopers are of her and Keith screaming about aliens and Shiro favoriting her

Sometimes it’s Matt being an idiot

One time she temporarily dyes her hair a pastel green color

She loves it

Keith

Like Pidge, Keith doesn’t sing much. He mainly aids in choreographing performances

He’s been perfecting his dancing for years and has the smoothest rhythm 

When he does perform, Keith’s specialty is P!ATD

He’s emo okay

And Brendon Urie is his first celebrity crush so why not pay tribute to him

Keith gets an undercut with Pidge

It’s not his favorite style so when he grows his hair out again he grows it out long

Longer than originally

Keith’s makeup is limited to eyeliner done by Shiro

His outfits have to be the exact ones in all of Brendon’s videos

“You guys don’t understand if I don’t have the top hat and red suit how can I do “I Write Sins Not Tragedies?”

“Keith, you’re going overboard”-Lance

“You have N O ROOOM TO TALK”

When doing interviews, he also has the KPop Idol look

It drives the fans insane

He secretly loves the attention

He probably has the loudest songs out of everyone but he appreciates it

Everybody loves dancing to his choreography

He doesn’t like social media but still has a Tumblr and Instagram

They aren’t for the group though they’re for his conspiracy theories

Pidge Co-runs the tumblr account and has her own cryptid Insta

His live streams consist of the group cryptid hunting together 

If he does post to the group’s YouTube account it’s for cryptids or a sneek peak of some choreography

Sometimes he lets Lance do his makeup and post it on the channel

He loves to choreograph for Lance specifically because it always somehow involves him

Partition is probs his favorite too for obvious reasons

Shay

Shay’s the universal rapper of the group though she mainly does Drake

Shay just seems like a Drake fan so-

Still she does other rappers since she isn’t very picky

Shay’s outfits mirror Drake as well, though adding her little twist and touches to them

Most of the time Lance and Allura help her with clothes

Her makeup always deals with earth tone or stars there is no in between

She lives for glitter and small jewels

And she’s always wearing a necklace and earrings

Shay’s flow is even better than Hunk’s can you believe it

Hunk can

ANYWAY

Shay loves collaborating with others, specifically Hunk and Allura

She’s very loud and boisterous on stage but off stage she’s kind and quiet

Kinda like that friend who’s very meek in public but wild at parties with close friend

Very passionate about her dream

She’s also in charge of keeping everybody on schedule because nobody follows schedules like she does

Sometimes she’ll do small rituals to ensure good luck for performances

They have yet to fail her

At interviews she’s always really peppy and happy to answer questions

One of the fans asked if  she’s dating Hunk

“Oh no, I’m just a rock he admires very much”

The crowd is confused but the group gets it and starts picking fun

Shay bonds with everybody on the team and it’s great 

She and Matt talk about space for long periods of time on end it’s crazy

With Shiro it’s how pretty Allura is and how much he wants to fling himself into the sun

Also about the other team members

Allura literally politics and makeup and 

Lance it’s Spanish dancing and the ocean

Keith it’s Lance and like random shit

“What if Coran was in a gang”-Keith probably

“Dude,,, we have to investigate”-Shay

Hunk it’s lovey couple stuff and rocks and food and really cool movies

Pidge it’s plans for the next concert

Coran it’s schedules and stories

She loves having such a big and supportive family

Shiro

Bruno Mars. That’s it.

Shiro bops to Bruno Mars like it’s his religion 

Wears rolled up sleeves and jeans with sneakers forever 

His eyeliner is sharper than everyone elses and he takes pride

Fans eat him up

They love his “dad-like” personality

Sometimes some of them bring him cookies and such backstage

He takes them because who passes up free food??

Seems like dad, is actually 12 

Seriously, he causes most of the food fights 

And he’s always making bets with Pidge and Matt

But he’s still responsible when needed

He does his own choreography and everything what a man

Once he did a split in the middle of Uptown Funk and everybody lost their shit

Even the group

They just all started laughing while Shiro continues to strut his shit

Shiro’s snapchat is full of videos of him and the team

Half the time he’s screwing around with Matt

Other half he’s posting death jokes

Nobody is phased by this anymore 

They’re so used to it

“I want a light to fall from the cieling, knocking me out instantly”

“Yeah Shiro we get it you wanna die now help me stretch”

He probably has the most questions asked at interviews

Most of them are “Will you be my daddy”

“…I’m everybody’s dad”

“But only Allura’s daddy”- Lance

“Say your goodbyes to Lance because he done fucked up, kids”

His favorite album is probably 24k Magic bc he feels fly as fuck

Imagine him proposing to Allura with “Marry You”

Everybody knows except for Allura and she literally sobs when he gets down on one knee and pulls out a ring

It’s epic

Pidge once suggested putting a confetti canon in his prosthetic

Although he would like to Allura said no so-

He still does it anyway

Matt

Matt’s a fucking Meme

He handles booking places and unwanted press

And he co-owns the YouTube Channel with Lance

The place is meme central nobody can believe it

He also has a snapchat and Twitter

Live streams happen every week

Most of the time he’s just screwing around the tour bus/ hotel rooms it’s hilarious really

He dresses like a tired college student all the time it’s great

He’s friends with everybody

With Shiro he’s literally goofing off half the time

They rival Hunk and Lance for best bros of the year

Half time time his story is filled with ugly pictures of Shiro

With Allura he’s spreading Shiro gossip and doing her hair

Lance + Matt = Hardcore memes and suffering

Pidge it’s the normal sibling stuff

He once picked Pidge up and threw her

“Y E E T”

Hunk it’s techno stuff and like animals

Keith it’s sharing stories about Shiro and how he’s not from this planet

They plan “experiments” to expose him for the alien he is

They fail

With Coran he helps to clean everything because these people are pigs it’s terrible

And when he’s with Shay they’re literally memeing together but on a lower scale

He helps her withh her style and stuff

When Pidge is on stage he’s handling the lights and shit

One time he got stuck in the lights for the whole concert

When asked where he was, he fell straight into Shiro’s arms

Shiro dropped him

Makes the most jokes

Coran

Team Aunt

Takes the group out for victory dinners

Buys sweaters for everyone

Let’s you do whatever you want as long as it’s legal

Because he’s a retired dancer he’ll step in sometimes and lend a hand

Cooks when Hunk doesn;t

And it’s not bad

But Hunk is just better sorry Coran

The group’s body guard

Literally he dropkicked a loser for eyeing Pidge the wrong way

“Coran was that necessary”

“Not but, as Lance would say, it was dope”

Groan

He also handles press coverage and makes sure all venues check out before Matt goes to book them

Lance is his favorite and it’s insane

Lance: “Hey Coran can I have like fifty dollars?” 

“Of course!!

Allura: “Hey Coran can I borrow 20 dollars”

“Sorry I don’t have any money.”

Will treat everyone to a shoppinf spree every once in a while

Loves everybody like they’re his own and assures parents that they are Okay and In Good hands

Also almost blew up the tour bus and ran like three red lights

Extras

Lance, Shay, and Allura went through a KPop phase

BTS, EXO, GOT7, Red Velvet, MAMAMOO, TWICE, BLACKPINK

They freak out all the time and scream

Meanwhile Keith and Shiro are KPop veterans

“Hah, losers.”

One time they all learned the choreography to “Monster” and posted it to the YouTube channel

Matt sat in the background and screamed random things

Slumber parties all night every night

When they tour they literally get one giant hotel room

Couples each get an hour to themselves throughout the day and then they meet at night to sleep

It’s not even sleeping it’s taking ugly pictures and face masks and nightly rituals and love

They wake up: Shiro, Coran, Shay, Allura, Pidge, Keith, Hunk, Lance, Matt

They go to sleep: Coran, Hunk, Matt, Keith, Lance, Shay, Pidge, Allura, Shiro

Every award they win everyone’s family comes together and they have a very large dinner

The group is called Voltron (how original lmao)

Fans are part of the Voltribe 

I’ll add more if I come up with anything else
