FIC: Piece By Forgotten Piece [Voltron, Kuron!Shiro]
Title: Piece By Forgotten Piece
Author: Omnicat
Spoilers & Desirable Foreknowledge: Dreamworks’ Voltron: Legendary Defender, seasons 1 through 3.
Warnings: None.
Characters & Relationships: Kuron!Shiro
Summary: His mind draws blanks and scribbles hallucinations along the edges. The healing pod says he’s fine while his head pounds to the rhythm of he’s not. He feels further from the truth than ever before. // 120 words
Author’s Note: I am working off the assumption that the Shiro that appears in season 3 is a clone or something along those lines – and that the Galra had the presence of mind to design him in such a way that his first medical check-up after being thrown to the inhospitable void of space won’t immediately give the game away. I’m not usually comfortable writing stuff that’ll be jossed so soon, but my need for Kuron to be okay is too overwhelming. Enjoy!
Piece By Forgotten Piece
Both times, he spends his first few showers thanking the universe to be alive and free one moment, cataloguing unremembered changes the next, and wondering always.
It becomes habit again and again; checking between his toes, in his hair, at his back. Every open plain and hidden valley of his body, wherever it might show itself. His captors had a goal; he has to wonder what, how close they got.
Last time’s amnesia was due to head trauma; this time, it can only have been them. Deliberate, and therefore dangerous.
Wiping steam from the mirror, Shiro tries not to see Ulaz in his peripheral vision, himself strapped down straight ahead; tries seeing beyond Coran’s nonsensical squeaky-clean diagnosis – to see answers.
