Cori Hikari was ORDINARY.
Like, genuinely ordinary. Not in the fake-humble way where someone secretly has twelve black belts and a tragic origin story. Just a sarcastic, background-blending cadet at the Galaxy Garrison. Quiet. Dry-witted. Entirely unremarkable. That was the plan, anyway.
And then the universe threw a UFO at her.
Literally. As it does. because NOTHING can EVER go according to plan.
One crash, a lot of chaos, and suddenly Cori and her extremely underqualified team are being dragged into an intergalactic war. Then the legendary lions of Voltron show up-and for reasons no one can explain, they choose her team. Not her, of course. Obviously not.
Questionably qualified? Absolutely.
Unprepared? Hilariously so.
But fate keeps looping back to her.
Still, she's just ordinary. Nothing to see here. Probably.
It's not like the universe has a habit of singling her out. That would be absurd.
Totally absurd.
Unless-maybe-it wasn't.
Maybe she's not as forgettable as she let people think.
Maybe being "ordinary" was just the best cover story in the quiznacking galaxy.
But hey, that's probably nothing.
No need to look too closely.
Let's not get ahead of ourselves.

Defenders of the Universe
(This is an OC insert without ANY ships (apart from the ones in the original work)) Neirine, a girl who enrolled in the Galaxy Garrison to be with her friend, spent her time learning the ways of the medicine. Every ship needs a medic, and she just so happens to be the medic for her friends team. But what happens, when one night, in the middle of seeking out of the Garrison, the team of four, come across something much larger than the simple 'lets-sneak-out-and-fool-around'. What happens when someone who was deemed missing is found and is said to have gone crazy. What happens when a mysterious ship is found in the middle of the desert? This is the story about the Defenders of the Universe and how they came to achieve that title. (This is my third fanfiction, and still. English isn't my first language. Though I love to write and make art, as I will show in the fanfiction! Please have fun if you decide to read it :3)![Taking Flight | Pidge x (Female)Reader [OLD]](https://img.wattpad.com/cover/121971626-256-k282524.jpg)
Taking Flight | Pidge x (Female)Reader [OLD]
5/25/20 Edit: This is going to be rewritten. I don't like how I handled the plot, so I'm going to try my best to take it in a direction that I will like better. Thank you all for the continuous support of this, even after it was discontinued. The link is posted in the last update and you can also find it on my profile. "The white lion, the wings of Voltron, needs a paladin that is light of heart, and must be able to lift up their team. It's a curious nature, exploring the cosmos and beyond." You will pilot the white lion. ~~~ Check out the rewrite! https://www.wattpad.com/story/226566465-green-sky-and-white-stars-pidge-gunderson-x-female Warnings: Mature Language Graphic Scenes (harm toward person) Highest Rankings: #8 in katieholt #1 in pidgegunderson #632 in xreader #38 in vld #53 in voltronlegendarydefender #7 in voltronComplete

You are welcome to read this book and its unfinished sequel, they were separate at one point but they got discontinued (those parts will be labeled) but just know that some things may be removed/ will differ from the original story, so read at your own discretion! ~~~ For team Voltron, things are pretty interesting. With an emo with a mullet, a flirt with homesickness, a ray of sunshine with a weak stomach, a determined geek in search of their family and a galran prisoner from the Kerberos mission as paladins, it's going to get crazy, but let's not forget someone incredibly important. You. With these misfits at the helm, things are going to get messy. But here's the thing. You've been missing since before the launch of the Kerberos mission, since before Keith Kogane dropped out of the Garrison. Once captain and best friend to the Garrison students and future drop out, you even knew Shiro due to your rank in the Garrison at your age. What happens when the girl that they have been mourning since her disappearance shows up unconscious, drifting through space in a pod barely alive and suffering from blood loss? Find out in Once lost! ~~~~~~~~~~~~ Heya~~~~ it's me! I've started a new story and if all goes well, you're going to die! Wait. Oops. I just got word that is totally not going to happen. That is if the paladins have anything to say about it. Ignore that~. Hope you like the story!!! I'll try to update as much as I can!!!! Ciao, loves!Complete

Wings of Home II: Wings of Change
The Voltron crew find themselves embroiled in Earth politics after rescuing Earth from the Galra, yet they're also unaware of how much time the garrison actually had to prepare for the attack, nor the secret hidden even from the garrison officials - one which may very well prove problematic. Disclaimer - I don't own Voltron: Legendary Defender or One Day at a Time (2017). This is written for Open Novella 2020. The prompt I chose number thirty-four, "a radio signal is detected, its origins being somewhere in deep space from where no such thing should feasibly originate, unless..." This is also a sequel for Wings of Home.Complete

for·ev·er·more adverb for eternity; for always; forever "Keith?" Lance watched the tall figure turn, a slight smile on his face as he finished tying up his long hair. "Hey Lance. It's been a while hasn't it." Lance didn't reply, just ran up and hugged him. Keith grunted a little as Lance slammed into him. "Oh, okay. Hi." Lance laughed as he felt Keith wrap his arms around his back. "Sorry but it really has been a long time." - "Are you even happy here Lance? It smells like cow shit." Lance scoffs. "You'll offend Kaltenecker." He said, gesturing out the window. "Holy shit. I forgot you still had her." "Of course. She's been very helpful." Lance said with a smile, focusing back on the dishes in the sink. "And to answer your question... I am happy Keith. Maybe a little bored at times, but happy." "Why don't you rejoin the Garisson? Shiro has." Lance smiled a little, remembering how adamant Shiro had been about not rejoining after he was married. It only took two years for Shiro to forget about all that. Lance smiled at Keith. "Maybe I will. Veronica has been bugging me about it." Keith smiled. - The war may be over but two paladins still have some unfinished business.

Vrepit Sa (Lotor X Fem!Reader)
"I hope if everyone runs, you choose to stay." ------------------------- Y/N used to be just your average house cat. She used to be oblivious to anything beyond where the quietest place to sleep was and when her owners would be home. She was used to having the easy life. She was used to worrying about what she'd have for dinner, and that was all. Y/N was used to living on Earth. Now however, she's millions of light years away, trapped in a place where friends are little and enemies are everywhere. Alone. Shortly after she was kidnapped, Y/N was mutated into a Galra/Cat hybrid, and is now tasked with the job of keeping the Prince in line. Y/N knows she has to follow all orders given to her by her new superiors; she also knows that if anything were to happen to their Prince, then it would be her head. However, how does one protect someone who clearly hates you? Also, how are you supposed to blindly trust someone who won't tell you what the goal is in the long run? For now, Y/N keeps her head down. Completes her job. Listens to the witch in her head. Silently hoping that if she obeys for long enough, then maybe she can find a way back to Earth. But what happens when the person she's supposed to be protecting switches the roles? How will she cope without the one she's come to need? What will she do when a certain hybrid prince confesses his feelings towards her? ------------------------- New cover to celebrate 20k reads! WHOOP!
