Summary
There are two Lances. There’s the Lance who pokes and prods at Keith, who shows up uninvited with sharp words and devilish smirks. And, there's the Lance in front of him now. The one leaning against the wall with a faraway look in his eye. The one who appears at night with a smile and one of Hunk's cookies. Who talks about his mom with a fierce, burning love. Who sits in the observatory, a little too close to Keith than necessary, and makes up new constellations.
Keith doesn't understand him.

Summary
After working too long in a soul-crushing corporate job, Keith finally caves to Pidge's insistence on working with them out in the middle of the Great Smoky Mountains. Keith, desperate to regain his artistic inspiration, packs up all his stuff and moves out to a desolate, phone connection-less summer in the mountains with his best friend. Along the way, he stumbles across a mystery that has him hiking all over the forest. The only catch? Pidge didn't mention that he'd be living a twenty mile hike away from them, in a cabin with another ranger - Lance, with the Earth-shattering smile, with the dozens of individually named plants in his garden, with the mediocre cooking abilities, and the magical skills on his guitar. So maybe Keith will rediscover his ability to paint, or maybe Lance will fry all of his nerve-endings before he's able to. Who knows?
Alternate description: A brief obsession with Firewatch and a few too many google searches got me really invested in the Smoky Mountains, and here we are.

Summary
“Hey, did you know that I saw a mermaid once?” Lance says, gaze fixed on the ocean. The breeze combs through his hair, tugs the sleeve of his shirt off his shoulder. In the half-light, his eyes shine like moonstone, smooth skin dark as ink. The sight of him steals Keith’s breath away.
“You won’t believe in the Loch Ness Monster but you believe in mermaids?” he asks, exhaling on a shaky, disbelieving laugh. Lance turns to him, his smile a light in the dark.
“I’ll prove it to you.”

Summary
“I’d be a shit boyfriend,” Keith says, begging Lance to see what’s in front of him. The problem’s always Keith, his inner workings displacing him just to the left of everyone else—a Venn diagram of Keith versus others that slides further apart with every new data point until it’s just two circles. “I don’t care about dating stuff. And I can’t—you know how I am.”
“Yeah, I like how you are,” Lance says.
“And I care a lot about you,” Keith shoots off like an accusation. “We can be boyfriends if you want because it doesn’t matter to me. Dating’s even farther off my radar than sex was.”

Summary
Lance turns to face the window and starts to work on removing his chest plate. "I don't know about you, dude, but I'm tired. Can we do this later?"
Lance hears what he can only call a growl behind him, and the hair rises on the back of his neck. His skin tingles and he has to bite down on the inside of his cheek to bring the sudden frenzy of thoughts to a stop. Wow, okay. That's… something. "Your 'later' is never."
"That works, too!" Lance chirps. The chest plate comes off, and he tosses it to the side with the others. He starts to fiddle with his belt, but Keith's next words have him freezing.
"Why did you kiss me?"
