Lance's recording

"Is... is it on? It is? Okay, um... could you give me some space? Thanks...

Uh, hey, guys. I know it might come as a shock to you that I'm still alive and, uh... Well, it kinda surprised me too. I know what you must be thinking. "Lance, where have you been?" "Why did you leave?"

And I can answer both those questions. 
It kinda all started when Shiro, you know him, my role model? Well, he crash-landed onto earth after having been speculated to be dead for, like, a year. Me and my Garrison buddies, Hunk, Pidge, and Keith, rescued him and brought him to Keith's weird shack in the middle of the desert. Which was... it was small, but uh... a little weird, I can't lie about that.

Anyway, Hunk was being the super genius that he is and he and Keith led us all to a place which held the weirdest thing I had seen at the time. It was a giant blue lion robot and it was so cool! I mean, it was literally staring into my soul, but whatever, that's what it was supposed to do and...

Well, I kinda want to save the story for when I come home, but please believe me when I say that I didn't want to leave. I could never leave you guys, never. 

Marco, I'm sorry for never returning your favorite pencil, but it's all good, I have it here with me. I hope you got to play the prince in your school play, I bet you killed it as him. You're my favorite little brother and yes, I know you're my only little brother, but still. I... I hope you're doing good right now, and uh... I *sniff* hope you have great friends...

And Louis, you're the greatest older brother I could have ever asked for and... and you supported me when I wasn't at my best and... and you were the first person I ever told that I was bisexual and... I hope you and your girlfriend are still together and are still strong and happy. I *sniff* I really hope you're doing good. 

Veronica, you're the most insufferable sister and I love you. You always pushed me to do things I was afraid to do and... and you were always looking out for me, even if I didn't see it at the time. I also want to tell you that all those clothes I borrowed from you? You know the rug in my room? Lift that up and you should find a few broken floorboards, lift that up and the box of your clothes should be in there. 

Grandma, you're one of my favorite people. You taught me to garden, to sew and most importantly, you taught me how to care for people the way you care for... for all of us. I'm sorry I never made it to our monthly sew meet, please tell your friends I said hi. 

And mom... I don't even know what to say, except thank you. You always loved me and the rest of our family unconditionally and you have no idea how much that means to me. Even when we got into fights about some stuff, I never once thought to myself 'I wish she weren't my mom' but if you weren't, I don't know where or who I would be. 

You all mean so much to me and... hold on, I'm sorry...

*soft cries in the background*

Okay, okay I'm back. Where was I? I don't remember, but... I want to come home. I really, really do. I can't though, not yet. There's still work to be done up here in space. 

But, hey, it's not too bad. You remember Keith? I think I mentioned him earlier, but he was in my class at the Garrison and how I just didn't like him? Well, he and I are starting to get along but I haven't seen him for a long time. He's off with the Blades Of Marmorities, or whatever, so he's not here much. You didn't hear it from me, but I'm actually really excited to see him again. 

It does get a little lonely here, though. Everyone seems to be off doing their thing and I'm kind of... left alone most of the time. Hunk and Pidge are usually off doing science things, and Shiro, Allura, and Coran are off planning battle strategies, no time for me. 

So, I've been training a lot more than I thought I would. It's *soft chuckle* kinda funny, actually. Iverson told me the night I went away to not follow Keith in his footsteps, but here I am; pilot of the red lion, his lion, training for ungodly amounts of hours, and learning to use a sword. It's... it's crazy, how alike we actually are. I think that maybe if everyone just took time to get to know the person they seem to hate the most, they'd find some surprising things about them. At least, in my experience. 

I'm going to tell you the rest of my story when I come home, but right now the camera is dying, so I'm going to head off. I'm going to come back, and I'm gonna come back alive, I promise you. See you later."

Lance's mom covered her mouth as streams streaked down her face. Her Lance, her baby Lance, was alive. And he seemed to be fighting in some war? When was he going to come home? Would he be changed? 

Marco, Louis, Veronica and her mother all hugged her as they all softly cried. Lance was going to come home and he was going to come home alive. He promised. 

"Do... do you think Lance has a crush on Keith?" Marco suddenly asked. Louis ruffled his hair and then hugged everyone tighter. 

"Yeah, I'm pretty sure he does. The boy's a helpless romantic, after all," he answered. 

Lance was going to come home with, perhaps, a boyfriend.
