System Catch-All!
Who: Lance and you!
Broadcast: Yes
Action: Huntress and planetside, and anywhere else if you want!
When: Throughout the month, minus July 4-11th, where he'll be asleep for canon updating.
[A - Broadcast (Takes place July 11th)]
[Lance waves to the camera, looking just a little worse for the wear. He isn't injured at all, but he's apparently been asleep for a week, so he's kind of got a case of bedhead and his skin isn't as meticulously taken care of as usual. Still, he outwardly looks to be in a little better emotional shape than he was the last time this had happened to him.]
Sleeping beauty--er, beauties, are awake.
[Keith can also be spotted in the background, giving affection to their overeager pets who've clearly missed their dads.]
Last time we disappeared, but this time we just fell asleep, for some reason. It's really, really jarring to go home then come back like this, with all these memories just smacking back into your brain. But they're good memories... Some of the best I've had, and I'm really, really grateful to be back here. Sooooo, what did I miss?
[B - Mist]
[While Lance has gotten more careful about things over the years, what with the fact that general danger couldn't just lead to a bruised knee but actual death, there were still times where he pushed the envelope. The general assumption he and Keith had come to was that if their suits could easily survive the vacuum of space, some strange mist shouldn't be a problem.
They were wrong, of course, when they'd hit the denser mist.
Hallucinations strike Lance first and foremost. He talks to people that aren't there, and though it's difficult to see through his helmet visor, his expression is nothing short of distraught. You might even find him curled up on the ground, holding a large stone and...crying?]
[C- Hospital]
[Intelligent boy he is, he's struck out into the mist twice, both times landing him in the hospital afterwards. It's the second visit there, though, that he's much worse off. He may not be in the mist still, but he's still suffering vivid hallucinations while it's still in his system. While he's still mostly lucid, he falls into the realistic visions easily, and can be observed speaking into thin air as if there are others there. Pleading, begging these visions not to leave him alone, claiming that he can be useful. Beseeching them not to get rid of him.
Sometimes he's just curled up on his bed trembling, possibly crying.
He might even hallucinate when someone actually is there, misconstruing what they're saying.
When the visions aren't there, he's...quiet, looking nothing short of defeated.]
[D -Chocobo Sharide Racing]
[Before all that mess, or after he's mostly recovered from it, he finds himself drawn to the sharide racing. The birds are cute and awesome at the same time, and though he's obviously never ridden one before, he's still eager to give it a try. Whether just testing it out recreationally or partaking in some lower level competitions, Lance seems to be having a ball.]
[E - Kites!]
[Sometimes, it's good to just kick back and do something incredibly relaxing. Kite flying? Heck yeah. Lance can be found either running around with or just laying down with a blue kite in the air that matches the rest of his team's. Sometimes he's just content to watch it flutter above him. At other times, he's trying to do some sick stunts, which don't always work.]
[F - Wildcard!]
[Anything! Hit him up anytime, anywhere. On the ships, planetside, network, whatever. Lance is always eager to explore and do things, even though he's going to be in bad shape when he goes to the hospital.]

[It's clear he's just teasing about that last part; don't worry, Keith, Lance isn't making you put a ring on it anytime soon.]
If I'm lucky, she'll have embarrassing baby pictures of you.
no subject
[He didn't remember her in his life at all, so he had been really young when she left. Anything she had in the way of stories, Keith wanted to hear, too.]
Her name is Krolia.
no subject
no subject
[He sighed, trying to push away from that.]
Yeah...
[He almost said that he hoped to get the chance to know her, but he knew that was just going back to the whole, "here vs there" issue, and he didn't want to keep dwelling on that. He had no control over it, and he knew it made Lance feel bad. Hell, it made Keith feel bad, too, because it meant he had to choose between his mom and his boyfriend, and that was a sucky choice to have to make.
So, instead, he pushed against Lance, guiding them both back into laying down so he could cuddle against him, seeking comfort for a situation that had no easy answer.]
no subject
[He talks gently, running a hand through Keith's hair. He just had to swallow his pride and feelings for the time being.]
Mama said I was the worst by far out of everyone. Apparently I was so much that I was the reason she decided she'd had enough children.
no subject
That doesn't surprise me.
I sincerely doubt anyone would have been as fussy as you.
[Keith pressed his face against Lance's shoulder.]
You still whine a lot.
[He was trying to tease, trying to stay lighthearted. It wasn't easy.]
no subject
[For reasons Lance can't understand sometimes. He hums, giving a kiss to his forehead.]
no subject
[Keith smiled a little.]
Still with you.
[Keith leaned into the kiss, and then hugged Lance tight.]
It makes me happy.
no subject
[Lance would do anything to see Keith smile. Anything. He hugs him closer.]
no subject
no subject
[He nods, kissing his temple.]
Your smile makes me happy.
no subject
[That was sweet and all... but...]
What about things not about me?

You're the team sharpshooter. You've had my back a bunch of times. It's a good feeling knowing you have me covered.
no subject
[He gives a small, even if slightly strained smile.]
I'd never let anyone or anything hurt you.
no subject
And, hey... you guys can meet my mom.
[That got a small chuckle out of him at the weirdness of that one.]
I'm not an orphan anymore.
no subject
[He takes a deep breath.]
I hope she doesn't give me a shovel talk.
no subject
I don't know. I mean, I can't imagine it would be a good one. I mean, what would constitute a Galra shovel talk? Do they even talk about about it, or do they just... act on it?
[He shrugged. Some food for thought there, Lance. Do Galra have different shovel talks than humans? Are they worse?]
no subject
[You never know.]
no subject
I can try... but... I can't make any promises that she won't like, throw me out of the way for my own safety or something. I think.
[He huffed a sigh. Damn it. Damn the Atroma. He had so many questions.]
I mean, she made some pretty rash decisions to protect me, so, I don't know.
no subject
[Just gonna be mirroring Keith's thoughts there.]
She just has to realize that I wouldn't hurt you even in the most extreme of circumstances.
no subject
Maybe I can convince her. We'll have to see.
[Provided he could come to terms with her leaving him behind long enough to let her into his life in the first place. That was still something he had to deal with.]
Thanks.
no subject
[He gives Keith's shoulder a squeeze. While he can't fully understand what he's going through, it being a unique situation, he emphasizes as much as he can. And will be there for his boyfriend.]
