Summary
in which college maths professor Shiro takes a break from teaching after an accident that almost lost him an arm, but in order to keep himself occupied accepts to supervise the maths class for the local community college. He doesn’t expect to find in between his new students Keith, one of the uni’s janitors (incidentally, the one he might have been crushing on for a while, to his TA’s amusement). Then it turns out the guy isn’t just good at maths - he’s actually beyond gifted. Shiro might be over in his head here.
(Or: the sort-of-Will-Hunting-inspired AU you probably didn’t know you wanted.)

Summary
An incomplete Voltron team is saved by the Marmora when one of its members proves to be the only pilot the Red Lion will accept. Tradition dictates that for an alliance to be formed, two parties of equal standing marry and Shiro winds up taking the hit for the team.
It might not be so bad, if only Shiro could figure out if his new alien spouse really wanted him for a husband.

Summary
"Are you all ready to get started?"
"Yes, sir!" twenty voices answered in unison.
Shiro's stomach flipped at the words. Oh, no.
The soulmark on his right wrist burned, confirmation that his soulmate was one of the twenty people who'd just uttered the phrase.
Oh, shit.

Shiro loves Keith so much it hurts. Keith might not love him back, and that's okay, except that it's going to kill him.

Summary
“Does it still hurt?” Shiro asked, his voice still quiet.
Keith’s grip on Shiro tightened. He turned his head, keeping his gaze on the floor. He can’t bring himself to say it. He can’t bring himself to say what he wants Shiro to know. No, but the way you’re looking at me stings like hell.
“Keith…”
