Lance didn't ask to be born. He didn't want t be the runt of the family. He just wanted to be born earlier at the most so he could have some sort of parenting. His parents were considered old to have a child. And by the time they had Lance they were worried about college for his sister and saving money for his brothers. So he was just inda there in Cuba. The only one who would really talk to him was his grandma. He would go visit her at the retirement home and talk to her. His grandma said try getting into the garrison, that would make his family proud. But it didn't and he didn't care anymore he wasn't the youngest child. He wasn't the dumb kid at school. He was just Lance McClain. He got to be his own person, he had a sense of pride. And now here he is in the middle of space with smarter people than him, his "rival" that is now gone with the blade of marmora. So he is back to being the background person again. Who people think isn't smart. He tries to put in his strategies for battles but hey tell him to shut up or not now before he says a word. He thought Pidge or Hunk forgot that when they did the battle strategy test in the garrison everyone failed but him. He got a straight up 100%. When they went to planets and he had a bad feeling about it, they wouldn't leave and that's how people get hurt. Or worse, killed. Lance wanted to go back to earth to ask his grandma what went wrong, or what's the best way to fix this, but he kept it all inside. That's what he did for a lot of things he still has things he hasn't told anyone. And he won't until he is on his deathbed. Now they are in the common room. This is where Lance would explode.
"So if we flank left and then tur-"
Lance has pretty much tuned them out. He new a better plan and by hearing those words he knew the plan was flawed. Honestly he thought if Shiro was a fighter pilot he should have been better at this type f stuff, but this is why they have war generals because they don't plan their own attack.
"Lance are you listening to me?"
"Yes Shiro."
Lance knew what was coming.
"Come on Lance you need to stop lying it doesn't look good on you. I mean you need to listen better because your the one who doesn't follow the plan and gets in the healing pod all the time you're such a screw up. Did you need to be born we could have got a better pilot." There it goes Pidge broke him, absolutely broke him.
Everyone was on edge Lance knew this. This was the fight were they could finally restore peace in the universe and Pidge in just a few words almost broke the entire team.
"You now what Pidge I didn't wish to be born! I didn't want to be the runt of my family! I didn't want to get tired looks whenever I did something wrong just to get their attention! I never got good parenting and now I am back to being the runt of the group at least I had an opinion at the garrison at least there were people who trusted my strategies! I WASN'T A CARGO PILOT I WAS IN THE STRATEGY CLASS! I WAS GOING TO BE A WAR GENERAL! BUT NO ON, NO ONE BELIEVED ME. I WAS A CARGO PILOT FOR FUN BECAUSE I HAD AN OPEN HOUR NOT BECAUSE I SUCKED! SO DON'T TELL ME I SHOULD HAVE neVER BEEN BORN I KNOW IT I TRIED TO MAKE SOMETHING OUT OF MY LIFE! I guess I just couldn't cut it." Lance walked out and went to his room and broke down. He could handle himself saying he shouldn't be born, but when he hears it from someone else it just broke him. Thinking no, knowing that someone else thinks he is a screw up and shouldn't have been born. It broke him. He skipped dinner that night. He fell asleep early after crying everyone was still shocked. Pidge was quilty, Shiro thought he was too since he asked if Lance was listening. He skipped breakfast the next morning too. He just wanted to be away from everyone and just have some time alone. It was Lunch when he finally came out of his room.Hunk immediately hugged him, Pidge started to profusely apologize same with Shiro. Allura and Coran stood back to watch the team mend again. Voltron wouldn't be broken by a huge stumble. They will always bounce back.
