(You Can) Drop Your Façade ; klance

rewrite

Hello! A rewrite of this fic is currently in the works and the first chapter is up here and on Ao3!

Be sure to check it out because I can assure you it is much more well written. I plan for it to contain the same themes and basic premise of this fic along with some other new content! ;) I am roughly estimating it to be around 14 chapters and each will be at least 2k-3k long.

I'm not entirely sure what the posting schedule will be like at the moment but hopefully I'll be able to determine that soon.

Anyways, here's the summary and sneak peak of the first chapter of A Little Too Much:

Summary: September brings cool autumn air and warm colored leaves. September softens the blow on the start of school and new sleeping schedules. September marks the sixth month anniversary of a joke gone too far. But this year, September also brings Keith Kogane.

Sneak peak of Chapter 1: Morning of A Little Too Much:

The moon beams down on him even as the sun begins to sprout from the mouth of the horizon like a blooming flower. The water around him ripples gently with each breath he takes and sloshes against his ears every so often. Slowly do the clouds begin to shift and rest upon the stars that were sparsely laid out in the softly pinkening sky.

It's nice to watch the sunrise like this, from what would be the perspective of the sea, and admire the warm tones from the east melding into the darkness of the west. Lance lets out a deep sigh, somehow failing to notice the quiet chitter of his teeth that follows almost immediately. September really was no time for swimming, and much less a time to float on your back listlessly for an hour or two, and for no real reason but to watch the colors in the sky and breathe.

Lance's hands hover over the water, not quite breaking the surface, just feeling with his fingertips. It's only the second week of the school year, but he's already so tired.
