Song 1: Let the world burn

Song 2: Someone you like

Song 3: La notte (For that I thought for a Zanerva AU parallel, or an Superhero AU like some stories I wrote)

Song 4: Him & I

Pidge: Keith and I have started building our own personal army of clones.

Keith: *sips his drink and raises an eyebrow as he looks at her from across the room*

Lance: Oh yeah?

Pidge: Yep, granted, real clones are expensive and I wasn't able to get clearance for the Garrison labs, so we decided to make artificial clones the old fashioned way.

Keith: *chokes on his coffee*

Matt: Old... fashioned way?

Shiro: You mean, you two are...?

Lance: Holy quiznack, Keith and Pidge boned!

Pidge: Clone #1 is about 7 or so months out, she'll like the colors purple, red, or green in any gifts you provide. We're not too worried about how the colors will clash.

Matt: I'm going to be an uncle!

Shiro: I'm too young to be a grandpa!

Keith: *still dying because **this** is how she decides to tell everyone they're expecting??*

*Shiro just entered on tumblr*
