''[[https://archiveofourown.org/works/12336048/chapters/28052769 as the lion loves the lamb]]'' by Demenior
* Recommended by Lyra_Dhani
* ''Status'': Complete
* ''Synopsis'': The Lions are powerful, ancient machines that have existed for eons. To be chosen by them is an honor only few have, for they pick only the greatest of heroes to serve them. But to serve a Lion is a life sentence. And a Paladins life is always a short one. The Lions are hungry.

''[[https://archiveofourown.org/works/10139777/chapters/22536941 Masks]]'' by TiedyedTrickster
* Recommended by Lyra_Dhani
* ''Status'': Complete
* ''Synopsis'': Everyone has a mask, one that tells the world what character you're destined to play in life, that tells people who you are. Except Lance's mask doesn't match him at all, and it's driving Keith nuts.
* Comments: An amazing world-building fic.

* ''Comments'': A fantastic expansion and exploration of Voltron cannon that promises to be a fix-it in later arcs. Featuring plenty of WorldBuilding, exploration of the magic aspects of Voltron, the situation on Earth developing at it's own pace (with the Paladins' families looking into their disappearances), and plenty of humor without being out of tone. Also Hunk gets more time to shine.

''[[https://rueitae.tumblr.com/post/179218936075/headcanon-that-pidge-while-not-the-jealous-type Lance Loves U NOT!]] by rueitae
* Recommended by ladyofthelibrary
* ''Pairing'': Lance/Pidge
* ''Status:'' Completed
* ''Synopsis:'' Pidge is perfectly secure in her relationship with Lance; she's not the jealous type. [[ViolentlyProtectiveGirlfriend Protective on the other hand, that she can and will do.]] And when a SpoiledBrat of an alien won't take no for an answer, Pidge decides to borrow from an Earth band to detail to this girl why Lance will never pick her. Because "he loves me. He loves u NOT!"
* ''Comments:'' Sassy Pidge is best Pidge and this is both an excellent showing of her [[ViolentlyProtectiveGirlfriend protectiveness]] and a very strong use of WaxingLyrical that feels natural instead of jarring.

* Recommended by [=fsdfsdfsd=]
* ''Status'': Ongoing
* ''Synopsis'': Sometimes, Destiny takes you on a different path than you planned. Sometimes, that path is one that an Alien Goddess picks out for you and it happens to involve fighting in a sentient, alien, cat-shaped warship against alien dictators. It's not what she expected her life to be, it isn't even what she wanted her life to be. But goddamn it, is she going to save everyone she can anyway and she's going to build a family while she does it.
* ''Pairings'': Keith/Lance (with gender bent bisexual Lance), and Adam/Shiro (with Adam's [[FlatCharacter cannon lack of characterization]] fixed by making him an {{Expy}} of [[Series/BrooklynNineNine Captain Raymond Holt]])
* ''Comments'': A fantastic expansion and exploration of Voltron cannon that promises to be a fix-it in later arcs. Featuring plenty of WorldBuilding, exploration of the magic aspects of Voltron, the situation on Earth developing at it's own pace (with the Paladins' families looking into their disappearances), and plenty of humor without being out of tone.

* Recommended by bbb35
* ''Status'': Ongoing
* ''Crossover with'': ''Franchise/SpiderMan''
* ''Synopsis'': Series of one-shots. Shiro thinks he's ok. Hunk respects him. Pidge refuses to understand the need for spandex. Allura and Coran hadn't even heard of him until now. Lance is his biggest fan. And Keith thought it was absolutely hilarious. Slight AU where Keith is actually Peter Parker, AKA Spider-man. Rated T for language. Possible Klance.

* Recommended by shiftkeyk
* ''Pairing:'' Lotor/Keith
* ''Status:'' Ongoing
* ''Synopsis:'' Considering everything that has happened to him since being summoned back to serve as Emperor pro tem, he hadn’t thought there was much left that even Voltron could do to catch him off-guard. Lotor does so hate to be wrong.
* ''Comments:'' Diverging from canon after Naxzela, Lotor surrenders to offer Voltron and the rebel coalition aid in the fight against the Empire while Keith, as a representative of the Blade of Marmora, is assigned to guard him (and unintentionally has a secret identity). In addition to being a well done slow burn Lotor/Keith, this fic expands on canon with its great characterization (especially with those outside the pairing), building upon the universe's culture and history, and addressing topics that were glossed over (like Keith and Naxzela).

* ''Comments'': It's a four-episode mini-arc with a two-part finale! All four authors are standout individual talents, but they display an extra level of mastery by weaving their tales together into a coherent and exciting whole. The alien OCs are as inventively imagined as the canon characters; the jeopardy sequences have great tension. If you want more of what makes this series so much fun to watch, you can't go wrong here.

* ''Comments'': A well-written piece about a prison colony rebellion, staged by Sam and Matt Holt. For two characters who [currently] have little characterization, they're interesting, as well as the alien OCs. The culture difference between the humans and aliens is interesting. Slightly AU after season 1.

* ''Comments'': Fake marriage trope. The 3rd person Lance POV is very dramatic and entertaining ("Shiro, the only one of them who’s survived being entrenched in academia for longer than a few years, manages a look of polite interest. Or he’s dissociating. It’s hard to tell with Shiro."), and the romance is more subtle than in a lot of other fake marriage fics. The entire cast is included and plays a role in the fic as well. The lesbian armadillo lizard alien OCs are charming as well, and have appropriate alien mannerisms.
