god I’m still so fucking pissed about voltron, but especially Klance. listen. I know. I know it’s 2020. But I could write a whole essay on this. Like,, we weren’t crazy, the subtext WAS there:

The part that angers me the most is that the creators didn’t realize what a perfect narrative arc set up because they were too goddamn straight to understand the inherent homoeroticism of rivals

Not to mention in the FIRST EPISODE it established that their rivalry was one-sided, meaning Lance was just like, excessively fixated on this guy. to the extent that he’s so familiar with his haircut that he can identify it at a distance

the fact that he calls his haircut a MULLET, which makes that double gay

despite the fact that Lance apparently claims to hate Keith so much, this is how he talks about him when he isn’t around:

with…. that expression…..

The Bonding Moment™

that one time Keith was upset and everyone looks over to Lance because they knew Lance would be the best one to comfort him

this whole scene

THIS?????

just…. the way that Lance’s whole insecurity subplot could have been really interestingly resolved by the person he’s jealous of/admires falling in love with him!!!! It just would have been good writing!!!! especially since Lance’s insecurity issues were mostly unaddressed!!!!!!

jfghgh just….. all the ingredience were there,,, like the narrative felt like it set itself up for it and the writers just. Didn’t even realize they made a recipe for an IDEAL rivals to friends to lovers……. I’m so bitter

VLD art in the year of our lord 2025? More likely than you think

Ive been thinking about voltron since netflix removed the show and as wild as the whole experience was i can appreciate it for the joy it gave 12 year old me

I love Klance fics where Keith is really awkward and Lance is the cool kid

But I also like ones where Keith is like: 😎 ✨

And Lance is just like: 😳 and turns into a blushing bi-saster (like disaster? Get it? ... You're supposed to laugh now)
