🌟HIM AGAIN🌟

-it was a totally normal Saturday for you
-you got up around 9:30, took a quick cold shower to cool down since its been really hot lately
-afterwards you had some breakfast, just some toast with strawberry jam and a glass of chocolate milk
-it was around 11 when you had decided to have a day just for yourself
-you‘ve made a little plan of what to do today
-just some general ideas what you could do
-first on your last was going to the grocery store
-quickly you grabbed your keys from the living room and put the rest of your stuff like phone, lip balm, a bottle of water and a scrunchie in your backpack
-then you hopped in your car and drove as close to the center as you could so you were able get all your stuff without walking long distance
-all the stores were in your reach
-on your way to the grocery store, which was only like a 5 minute walk you first put on your sunglasses due to the bright light and then checked your phone for a second
-then you looked up
-and a guy walked past you
-he was handsome you thought but didnt really pay attention until he sent you a cute smile
-you smiled back and kept walking
-u‘ve never seen anyone in Madrid who just passes you on the sidewalk smile at you
-especially not a guy
-but you didnt think anything of it, you just wanted to concentrate on yourself today
-it was officially you-time
-very well deserved after the last project you had to do at college
-it had been stressing you out for weeks
-but now it was over and you needed a break
-at Mercadona you just wandered around the aisles for a while and eventually got everything you wanted
-the usual
-some bread, milk, eggs, some juice, pasta and some rice and a bunch of different candies for your soul
-you really needed this right now
-after paying for your stuff you put all of it in a tote bag and left to bring all of it back to your car
-since your car wasnt parked anywhere far away it took you only a couple of minutes until your bag was secure on your backseat
-quickly you checked your phone for the next destination
-which was getting your eyebrows plucked
-your friends sister did that for you for a great prize and you really liked the way she did it
-so you headed there real quick
-„hey girl!“ she greeted you as you walked in
-„hey nice to see you.“ you spoke and hugged her for a second before she had to go back to her customer
-„looks great.“ you complimented the girl who‘s makeup she was working on right now
-she smiled at you and thanked you
-„just sit down, I‘ll be done in a minute.“ Ella told you and you did as she said
-so you just spend a bit of time scrolling through your phone but that got boring soon so you just looked around
-out the window mostly
-not to sound like a creep but you liked watching people
-more like observing characters
-its so weird how different people can come off as just by walking by
-you saw two girls together
-one of them blonde, wearing super girly clothes like a crop top and a cute dotted skirt
-the other one had black short hair, bangs in a bright purple color, wearing more like emo-clothes
-you liked how people showed off who they were with their clothes
-and then a guy walked by
-he looked familiar
-you had passed him before, you had remembered his blue shirt with the little picture on it
-weird you thought but forgot about it the second Ella told you to sit down at the chair
-after your eyebrows were in a good shape again you went to the next store
-you‘ve been looking for a knitted top for a while and your friend had told you you could find it at Zara
-so off you went
-the walk was a bit farther but not like a challenge
-as you walked past a busy street
-you noticed a very cute dog sitting in front of a store
-he wasnt on a leash
-must be a very well behaved dog you thought
-you went up to him, you just couldn’t resist
-you pet him carefully and looked around to maybe see the owner
-„naw who do you belong to?“ you asked the dog in a cute voice
-he just looked at you and obviously enjoyed you scratching his head
-„me.“ you suddenly heard a voice and stood up from the ground
-„he‘s mine.“ a tall handsome man spoke and put his phone in his jeans pocket
-it was this guy again
-the one who you had seen twice in one hour already
-„he‘s really cute.“ you just spoke and kept on walking
-all you heard was a laughing „thanks.“ as your back was turned to him
-it did feel very strange to see this guy all the time
-considering that madrid is huge
-it was probably just a coincidence
-to bluntly summon this, you didnt find the top you were looking for because it had been sold out in your size
-unfortunately
-so you decided to go to another store to check
-but they didnt have anything close to it either
-after another hour you quickly grabbed a sandwich at a bakery nearby and wanted to head back to your car
-while eating your sandwich on the way you got a little bit distracted by your phone
-so you dropped a piece of tomato on the ground
-but before you could pick it up to throw it in the trash can nearby someone was faster
-well not quite a person
-a dog
-and you had seen this dog before
-you were weirded out by now
-„oh.“ was all you could say in this situation
-„paco.“ someone yelled and you looked up to see this guy, the fucking same guy AGAIN, jogging up to the both of you
-„i‘m sorry he‘s young and...“ he stopped and looked at you as if he had recognized you as well
-„its okay, i would’ve eaten it anymore anyways.“
-the guy laughed a little
-he had a gap between his front teeth
-your first boyfriend had had one too
-well, you were 12
-„sorry, he keeps bugging you.“ he said and grabbed the dog at the collar
-„no dont worry! He‘s just playful I understand that. But my full respect that he doesnt need a leash.“ you spoke impressed
-„yeah my dad taught him that. He‘s a good boy.“ the guy smiled down at his dog
-you smiled back
-„yeah he seems like it.“
-��anyway I have to go. But I‘ll probably see you again today.“
-you started laughing
-he joined you and then added a:“Im sure. Have a good day!“
-„you two as well!“ you replied and smiled one last time before finally reaching your car and driving home to have a nice afternoon all for yourself
*2 days later*
-your friends had invited you to a game night at their shared apartment
-you were super excited
-Sheila just told you her boyfriend would be coming too
-and that he might bring a friend so that you guys would be an even amount of players
-you were just sitting at the dining table sipping on a glass of wine as the doorbell rang
-„oh finally.“ Sheila groaned and ran to open the door
-you heard them greet each other and someone took off their shoes and their jacket
-„Guys, thats Jorge, but you‘ve met him before. Like once? And that’s Arón, his best friend.“
-you looked up
-and you couldnt fucking believe it
-„No.“ was all you said and stood up
-this wasnt true, man
-that dude again
-„You.“ he started laughing
-Sheila looked around all confused
-„You two know each other?“ she asked
-Arón and Jorge sat down
-Arón then eventually spoke:“Funny story.“
-you couldnt keep his eyes off him
-other than the other day he was wearing a flannel and jeans not the sweats and the oversized shirt
-and he smelled good
-„Yeah really weird.“ you added to his comment
-„Tell us!“ your other friend encouraged you
-arón kept staring at you
-and when sheila responded:“maybe its destiny“ you knew it too
-and judging from his face, he did too

(1/4) confession: i hate l@nce. hate him. so much. he's such an asshole! like i get the writers are going for 'wannabe casanova' but what they've got is a boy that only is insta 'nice' to hot women (in the mermaid episode he was like :/ to the squid head girl until she took it off and was totes hot at which point he immediately did a 180 to ;D), hits on literally everything resembling female, and doesn't take no for an answer. like, a//ura made it pretty clear she's not interested in L@nce.
(2/4) But he keeps flirting with her at very bad moments, despite her being annoyed with it, and tries to police her actions at one point??? (when her at Ke!th run off together he flips shit on her and tries to do an interrogation if anything happened like thats any of his fucking business). Literally the only girls he’s not weird about is P1dge and his mother. It’s fucked him over so many times! N!ma and the mermaids both should have been massive red flags, but he never changes!(¾) Not once does he connect the dots and think hmm maybe there’s a connection -NEVERMIND HOT GIRL. He’s completely oblivious from moral and logical standpoints. I hate it and I hate him. No amount of homesickness and insecurity is gonna make him likeable until he pulls his head out of his ass. Or at least gets called out by someone instead of being told ‘not now’ mid emergency. He doesn’t give a shit about them! That one mermaid girl he was hitting on, she died! Mid episode!(4/4) And L@nce didn’t even ask hey, where did she vanish too is she okay? He didn’t give a single fuck about the missing girl he’d been hitting on literally a day ago, he was too busy with the NEW pretty mermaid girl and the hot mermaid queen! I hate him, I hate how the writers handle him, and he needs to get called the fuck out by someone soon. Preferably A//ura. Or P!dge. Or Sh!ro. Thank you for hearing of my rage.
ok i was about to go to sleep but since its the l@nce ask i decided to wait a bit, because uhhh, welp he’s important to me and he’s probably the only reason why i still watch this show lfdkjgkf im going to try and be as, well, as objective and logical as i can so please bear with me also im sorry i cant really salt with you here. like, i partially salt with you but not entirely since, you know, l@nce stan thing and all that. okay anyway, here we go and it probs gonna be long so im really, really sorry or something. also also before i Really start i want to thank hd, jo and ciel bcos brainstorming with them was a top notch way to figure out what i want to say fldkgj
im gonna start with the flirting thing first in general, then move to @llura, then to other instances you brought up then to lance himself, just so we have some outline here okay? okay. so here i go:
the flirting thingy - i get why it bugs you and it bugs me too, especially with @llura. writers definitely overuse it and use it as a comedic device (not working but shhh). on the other side, aside from @llura (which im going to talk about more in a sec, pls be patient with me, pls) girls usually don’t react negatively to it? pl@xum literally kissed him on the cheek, aliens at the mall and on that first planet in s3 laughed and generally it seemed to be rather innocent if annoying because of how often it was portrayed. the flirting alone isn’t really bad, considering his insecurities and strive for attention its not surprising that he does it and its never a serious thing. and most of the team reacts with just groaning and rolling their eyes, no one ever told him, 100% seriously and definitely, to stop. the thing is, writers portray his flirting in a really shitty way (like most things, jesus christ) 90% of the time??? which brings us to the next point here:
@llura or rather how her and l@nces relationship was portrayed so far. now theres no denying it that the part where he keeps on flirting with her and she keeps turning him down and so on is, well, pure shit and we all want (or rather wanted it considering how he dropped the act in s3) it to stop. while it doesnt make it okay, its still important to note that he never really seems to be 100% serious with his pick up lines and it looks like he uses it as a way to lighten up the mood (cue him using them in, well, not really appropriate moments). and while we’re at it, lance hardly ever opposed to any of her orders (aside from the time when he and hunk argued with the rest of the team about coming back home but, like, can you really blame them for that?). also the thing that you brought up, him flipping his shit out when she left with keith was completely justified??? she and k/eith literally left without any notice??? when they were constantly followed by galra and there was a war going on???? of course he was worried out of his mind, who wouldnt! and when she was captured by the gala he was one of the people who wanted to go and save her. like, you cant really say he doesnt give a shit about her. its further proved by how he acted in s3? he completely dropped his flirting with her, never acted angry when she was chosen to be the blue paladin, he even said he was happy that it was her specifically! when sh!ro came back he never asked @llura to step down either, he thought she was better suited to do it than him he constantly checked if she was feeling alright in blue and we could see how much their relationship improved in this season. i would go as far as to say that they actually became a p good friends.
now, onto the other instances you mentioned:
pl@xum - here its kinda tricky tbh, on one side, yeah, its not really okay that he started to be all over the moon for her after she took of the squid, on the other hand he knew her for, like, a day at best?? its not really enough time to fall in love with personality itself (especially considering how much happened during that time?) and you cant really tell that being attracted by someones good looks is something bad? it was portrayed in shitty way but then again, its more of writers fault. and while we’re at it, even if he wasnt interested in her romantically, he never disrespected her??? he took her seriously after she and her group explained what they did and why they did it and helped her free her planet.
fl/rona - okay i seriously dont know why you brought up this? he had maybe one convo with her and during it or right after he was literally drugged with poisoned alien food, then he got kidnapped, stung by a squid and had to fight and save the entire kingdom. he probably thought she was in the palace or somewhere in their village? with so much happening of course it could slip his mind. 
ny/a - well, im not really sure how to approach this one but im gonna try. yes, l/nce going after her was reckless and not his best moment but also?? literally everyone on the team except for h/nk seemed to trust them? and n/ma not only reciprocated/pretended to reciprocate but also played at his insecurities (aka pulling the “if you wont then im sure k/th aka the boy that you consider ur rival aka the boy that is one of the sources of ur insecurities will take me to his lion). and lance maybe has a strategical mind and works good on missions and in the heat of a moment but? he’s also an insecure teenager and teens tend to do reckless things when they want to impress someone. plus, lance generally seems to be rather trusting? hes not as guarded as, lets say, k/eith, hes thrives on social interaction and likes meeting new people. you can see it in the way he wanted to hang out with p/idge in the garrison even though she probs always turned him and h/nk down or how he was able to confide in coran despite knowing him for week at best or in how quick he was to play around and take selfies with complete strangers from the planet he just helped save in s3 and how well he worked with blade of m/rmora in same ep. hes quick to trust and become friends, which makes him an easy target for people like n/ma but overall isnt really a bad trait. 
all in all, lance is a very, very complex character and cant really be judged only basing on his flirting. hes much more than that. and while i understand where you’re coming from i cant really agree with you fully. the way his flirting is portrayed is shitty but hes not a bad person at all. 
sorry its so long btw, im just,,, kinda passionate dl
