Nemu Takara, Neuhaus and Mephisto's secret Laboratory: Theories.

You know, I had another weird theory about Nemu Takara.

So...I always thought Nemu Takara was a kid from the future, maybe even Shura's kid. Because his whereabouts are a mystery, and Mephisto couldn't be more coy about it. The kid doesn't come from anywhere, and has no ties to the True Cross Order. Nemu is a big unexplained mystery.

But what if he's a kid from this timeline, with an undocumented birth?

Remember that Neuhaus's wife was pregnant? She dies during the blue night, and Neuhaus is seen carrying her dead body away. It was assumed that both his wife and child perished during the Blue Night but what if Neuhaus was able to save his child? He was an expert in demon elixirs, and the regeneration of the dead flesh. It sounds macabre, but that was Neuhaus's specialty in section 13.

What we do know.

After the Blue Night, Neuhaus continued his research in a secret lab, suspended in time from the old section 13. Mephisto created this secret lab, no doubt with all the old research intact, even though he said it was "destroyed." (Mephisto lets Lightning peruse all the research with Ryuji later on.)

So, the entire section was saved, just compartmentalized in a time void, with Neuhaus in complete control of it.

Is Takara Neuhaus's kid? Maybe?

Neuhaus probably asked Mephisto for a favour (which usually results in less than favourable results). What if Mephisto let Neuhaus keep his research and experiments intact to save his wife and child? What if Mephisto agreed, under the condition that he promised to continue the work on secret exorcist weapons? New demonic vessels? What if the child was born with a terrible curse?

It would stand to reason, that Neuhaus's child would suffer from an affliction similar to Yukios. Satan's temptaint enters and escapes through the eyes. During the Blue Night, Satan possessed Neuhaus and his blue lightning jumped from Neuhaus's eye, killing his wife. (Regardless, Neuhaus must be scary strong, because he didn't die, his body must be on par with the Grigori Nephilium).

A temptaint from Satan expresses itself through the eyes. Yukio's temptaint was not as strong as Takara's, because he caught it from Rin, who was only a half-demon child of Satan. It only affects one of Yukio's eyes. Takara got the full force of Satan himself when he attacked his mother during the Blue Night. Therefore, both of Takara's eyes were affected.

When Takara opens his eyes, he could unleash Gehenna's full power on whomever tries to harm him (similar to Yukio only waaay stronger.) He might also be a portal directly into Gehenna, it's not clear. This is why Mephisto keeps Takara asleep with a stuffed rabbit familiar. The kid can't open his eyes, or Satan sees everything. (Yukio is lucky that he can patch one of his eyes.)

Shima saw the Satanic temptaint when he tried to attack Takara during the Illuminati arc. Takara was immune to the black power of Armumahel because, like Rin and Yukio, he is indirectly a child of Satan and is immune to black, blue, and red flames.

If Mephisto was looking for a superweapon, Rin pales in comparison to what Takara offers. Rin and Yukio, as a matter of fact, are just a big distraction. Satan is so focused on those two that he might not have noticed Takara exists.

Why else would Mephisto take a special interest in protecting Takara? The kid is family. Neuhaus has a very German name and has a temptaint associated with resurrecting dead things. Death is the kin of Time.

Neuhaus, I think, is Mephisto's son. And Nemu Takara is Mephisto's grandson.

What other research did Neuhaus undertake? We have no idea, but we know that Mephisto is in desperate need of a new vessel for Satan (maybe even himself) and if my theories on that are correct. It has something to do with Shiro. (Did Shiro die, or did he get the Drac Dragulescu makeover? Maybe Neuhaus found the way to upload the ego and soul of a person to a new body without that gruesome head transplant crap. But who knows.)

Drac Dragulescu's research may appear advanced, but I bet it's leaps and bounds behind Neuhaus's. Mephisto, after all, is just as wealthy as the Illuminati. And the experiments never stopped. Drac had to start over with only one completed replicant, and the Illuminati lab was rebuilt (highly suggestive that it's hidden somewhere in or under the Garden of Armahara and guarded by the Uzai. (This is why Granny Shemihaza left with her child and grandchild to be under Mephisto's protection in Japan.)

Anyway, is Takara Igor Neuhaus' kid? Thoughts on this theory?

[vicdoesnotexist]

Just like her.

I was listening to mistki and this randomly came to mind.

Warning for dead dogs and light angst.

Not beta read we die like shirou fujimoto.

This is also up on my ao3 so if you'd wanna check it out there @ VicEatsKids it'd be much appreciated!!

Nearby Vegetation sparkles in a fresh sheen of rain as it pours down, tapping against the pavement in a calm and methodical manner. Cigarette smoke blows from the man's lips as he stares at the scene before him. A few feet away sits a figure he knows all to well, one of his adopted sons, Rin.

The boy, barely twelve years old, sits under a large tree to protect himself from the rain. It's not until Shiro takes a closer look that he realizes the boy isn't alone at all. Quite the contrary, a small, bleeding stray dog lays across his lap. It's nuzzle is pressed against his stomach as its head rests on his thigh. The mutt looks pitiful, with a broken tail, wounded hind leg, and a body so starved the ribs can be individually counted.

Shiro watches as Rin tenderly pets the poor thing, smiling slightly as the dog manages to wag its broken tail, smiling at it with equal parts love and pity. Soft whispers leave the boy, inaudible from the distance Shiro stands at, but undoubtedly soft reassurances that everything would be okay.

The sight takes Shiro aback, he stands staring at the scene unfolding before him. His jaw clenched, the cigarette between his lips being crumpled by his teeth as the exorcist bites back tears. Yuri, Rin looks just like Yuri. The tenderness, the smile, everything brings back flashes of the woman he loved with every fiber of his artificial being. He makes his way over, lowering his umbrella to hover over Rins head instead. The boy looks up, clearly startled. Shiro smirks down at him, pushing down the agonizing sting he feels everytime their eyes meet.

"So, who's your new friend?"

Shiro asks, his voice rough with age and years of smoking. His words seem to snap Rin out of his haze, the young boy shooting Shiro a sharp glare. But, they both know it hold not true bite.

"Shut it, geezer."

He snaps out, small hands still delicately comforting the dying animal. Shiro eyes soften again, crouching down to be shoulder to shoulder with Rin.

:...That mutt won't last any more than an hour, yknow."

Rin looks back to the dog, his hands pausing, causing the whimpering animal to glance up at him in question.

"Yeah, I know."

He says back, his voice unusually soft.

"But, isn't that more reason to comfort it? The things had a hard life, it doesn't deserve a hard death."

Shiro's eyes widen slightly. How scarily caring and wise coming from a half demon. 'He really is just like her, huh?' His mind drifts to back to memories he cherishes with all his heart, but also despises with the bitterness of happy ending gone sour. He moves his rough, calloused hand up to ruffle Rins hair, earning a sharp glare from the boy. Shiro forces out a snicker, putting up the best smirk he can manage.

"Who knew you were such a sweetheart!"

This immediately earns him a swift punch to the gut, along with the adamant denial from a very embarrassed Rin.

The kid can be a little worse for wear sometimes.

But, at the end of the day, the half demon is still half human, and still his son.

That will never change, not in Shiro's eyes nor heart.

Rin will always be his son.

Watching Voltron: Legendary Defender for the first time and recording my thoughts

S1-2 | S3 | S4 | you are here! | S6 | S7 | S8 |

_________________________________________

This one is not as long because I literally finished it like two days ago as I write this so the thoughts are still simmering down but I need to remember them before I watch s6

Pre-S5 thoughts

-> I hope we get Keith back, his near sacrifice really scared me at the end of S4. I want my son back.

-> pLEASE let that poor girl get her father back. Oh my lord. Give him back. Pls. I can’t wait anymore. Will the real Sam Holt please stand up? Please stand up?

-> FRICK Lotor I know they’re probably gonna give him some backstory or whatever on him being a good guy but I DOOOOONNNNNNT CAAAAARRRREEEEEEEEE. I do NOT like him and they can never make me. he is EVIL and you cannot tell me otherwise.

->^“but laura-” idc. I don’t trust him. His voice is too American-Psyco-y. He is a little scheming cunty little elf. He’s onto something. He wants something out of this.

->^I will miss his team of lesbians tho. They ate.

->There seems to be a lot of hints towards allurance! I hope they get a good arc. They are very sweet!

-> I hope we see more of Matt! It’s like that one quote from Brooklyn 99. “I’ve only had [Matt] for [an episode and a half] but if anything were to happen to him, I’d kill everyone in this room, and then myself”

—~—~—~—~—~—///////|||||\\\\\\\—~—~—~—~—~—

Post-S5 Thoughts

-> my suspicions of Shiro grew bigger and bigger as this season progressed. I think I have it figured out by now. 🔍🧐☕️

->^Lotor low key ate her up with this

->^i think that’s her main arc: she needs to let go of the thought that all galra are evil (which she has fair reason to do so), as it is a war, and things aren’t all black and white. As much as I hate to admit it, I feel like having Lotor around this season will help her character development.

->^I wrote that at the beginning of s5, I was right, it did help a little (though then they brought up the fact that Lotor was half altean so maybe she just thinks he’s good because of that—let’s hope not)

->They did not, in fact, bring Keith back. Very upsetting.

->WE GOT SAM HOLT BACK!! THE HOLTS ARE BACK!!! THEY HAVE FOUND THEIR FATHER!!!!

->^That was an emotional episode for me. I cried when they didn’t find him in the “prison” thing and I cried again when Pidge ran into the hologram thing. They make me feel so weak. I was so happy when they got him back fr.

-> And then I cried again at the end of episode 3 cus he was like “I decided im leaving, good luck out there, kids”. Bawling.

->Speaking of episode 3… 🔍🧐

->^and episode 4…and episode 6… 🧐🧐🧐🧐

->^🧐🧐🧐🧐🧐🧐🧐🧐🧐

->^me rn vs. you guys probably.

->^He’s 1) been listening to everything Lotor says, ignoring the team and going behind their back/without consulting them. And 2) Being uncharacteristically hostile to everyone. I swear I felt like I was reading a really OOC fanfic nearly the whole season.

->^Yes, Shiro is leader-y, but he also (s1-2) tended to listen to his team and have unserious moments. I feel like he’s lost all of that. And I think that last picture is all I need to know.

->(moving on)There seems to be a big focus on Lance this season (yay!) I really hope it’s not for the usual reasons characters get extra screen time (because I would die). I feel like they have been leading him to be the black paladin with how leader-y he has been this season but even if that’s not the case I do still feel they are going to do something really important with him for the next season and I am so excited to see what they are going to do with him! 😊

-> if Keith doesn’t leave the Backyard of Malnutrition next season im going to make myself go inside the show and personally take him out

->/j/j/j…or is it? ☕️🧐 (someone needs to take this emoji away from me it’s made me too powerful)

->WE GOT KEITHS MOM!!!!

->^I was so shocked I literally slammed my computer shut (not that hard, im not a psycho dw)

->^HE GOT HIS MOM BACK!!! I cried after that episode because can you imagine? He just got her back and he thought she was dead/abandoned him for like his entire life. And now he has her back and oh my god I need to open ao3 where are those “first time calling <someone> mom/dad” one shots.

->^AND KROLIA. SHE JUST GOT HER BABY BACK!! Stop im fr crying as i type this. guys. Fuck. I genuinely can’t handle family-related stuff in shows like I will cry so hard. It doesn’t even have to happen on screen my brain just makes the scenarios for me and I obey and bawl my eyes out.

->They are trying to make me like Lotor and Allura together…it is almost working. Almost. I still don’t trust him. And I like allurance better.

->^i just KNOW she was internally kicking her feet and giggling at this. “Then you’re…🤔😯 Half altean 🤭🤭😍😍😍”

->^speaking of that ep, I was sooooo happy for Allura because she finally found a way to still be connected with her dad/culture after having to lose him in s1 and not being able to pilot red in s3, absolutely overjoyed for my best girl!! 🤍🩷🤍

->I absolutely LOVED episode five’s subplots. We have: A-plot) Keith+ his mom going on a mission together, B) Lotor +Allura finding altean stuff in Haggar’s lair, and C) my personal favorite, The garrison trio getting up to shenanigans with a galra robot thing.

->^Later Pala-dudes is my hero, too, lance

->^^Look at those dorks. I love them so much.

->^See this is proof that Lotor is actually Evil™️ and Not Good™️ because he immediately went to violence and trying to fight to greedily get what he wanted while Allura saw the right path and allowed the secrets to be shared with her willingly in this essay I will-

->When is Lotor gonna find out his mom is haggar?? Hopefully s6 cus I can’t take this anymore. the evidence is RIGHT THERE, bucko. Figure it out already.

->If they want me to like Lotor they better work extra hard next season. I’m beginning, BEGINNING, to actually, kinda-sorta-maybe actually like him. BEGINNING! And it is a rough start at that. But im defrosting my built-up dislike for him. It’s a burn slower than 300k words but it’s getting there. They’re gonna hold hands any chapter now.

These are thoughts I’ve been compiling for a while. I will continue to post my thoughts on the tag “laura’s first vld”

I finished Season 5 on 07/13/24. I have not yet started season 6. Stay tuned!

ISYT (Jushiro/F!Reader) EPILOGUE Ch. 57

A weird switch between Jushiro & Reader's POV

---------------------------------------------

After the fight ended, everyone made peace with those who had passed except for Jushiro; he was a shell of his former self, unable to move on from losing his wife. He attended the Konso Reisai of his former comrades but didn’t have the heart to participate in much else. As he had stated prior, he recommended Rukia as the captain and locked himself in his Ugendo, rejecting anyone who wanted to visit him. 

While cleaning out the Ugendo as a way to cope with the loss of his partner, he comes across a neatly kept journal that he recognizes to be his wife’s handwriting. Opening it, the first page said, “If you’re reading this, ‘Shiro, I’ve probably passed. This journal was kept in case you couldn’t find closure before you’re eager to follow me. I’d like you to do everything in this journal before you consider following me. I don’t suppose dying is your wish, anyways.” As he flipped to the next page, it was outlined repeatedly, a title that was made sure that he couldn’t miss: Before I die, I will…

Jushiro left a note on the table where he sat with his wife to dine with every night for Shunsui to find. The note said, “Don’t look for me; I’m okay.” 

-`♡´-

Jushiro had requested a Gigai from Kisuke to stay off the radar. Getting money was the hard part of his whole idea. But he managed. The Ukitake clan isn’t just a noble for no reason. He had to find a way to get what he wanted as the eldest son without anyone knowing. And that he did. He spent his days sightseeing with a Polaroid and a journal. 

“‘Before I die, I will…’” Jushiro read aloud, taking a beautiful sunset of a tulip field in Amsterdam; the flowery fragrant washed over him as the soft spring breeze blew past his white locks. He combed through his hair with his hand as he smiled at the small windmill spinning slowly from the breeze. He took the Polaroid picture & pinned it to the first page of the journal. “Lush greenery with spotted pinks, yellows, and reds decorates the fields of Amsterdam, and I can see why you wanted to visit my love; the sunset paired with the spring breeze; I can see you in a white dress and hat, twirling in the fields. You would have loved this place,” Jushiro wrote in the journal. Every night, he had hoped he saw his wife in his dreams, but he didn’t. When he visits the locations in her journal, he can almost hear her laughter as he arrives. 

As he turned away, he could feel a warm breeze embrace him, asking him not to go, but he always shook his head, “I’ve got places to go for my wife.” 

It used to be that whenever he did anything physical, his body would always bail out on him & cause a coughing fit. His wife popped her bankai, gave him her life & took away his illness, too. The only thing that changed was his eye colors. Everyone commented that he had pretty green eyes. But he could never bring himself to look at himself in the mirror. As he hiked the mountains of Colorado, he thought about how his wife always had so much energy. She was always running around for him, running errands, collecting medicine for him; she was never tired afterward. Even after a long day at work, she would be home cooking and cleaning for him to give him the best he deserves. Thinking back, he regretted not telling her that she was doing great. As he reached the summit, he couldn’t be more grateful for his lungs working well. He took a picture from the summit of the mountains, “Before I die, I will hike Colorado. I see why you thought this place was beautiful. The air is fresh, and I feel free & on top of the world. It would have been perfect if I could take a picture of you in your hiking gear, reaching the summit with me.” He wrote down with the polaroid before pinning it to the journal again. 

The cool mountain breeze wiped the sweat off his forehead this time, asking him to stay. But, he shook his head again, “I’ve got places to go for my wife.” 

His wife always told him about the books she had read while she was in the human world, and there was a series she had come across that had been turned into a set of movies. Although she never brought the books back, now that he’s visiting the set of castles in Romania, he couldn’t help but wonder what the books described. He put those books on his reading list as he snapped a picture of the foggy scenery; the heavy fog placed a heavy feeling of mystery in the air. “Before I die, I will see Dracula’s castle in Romania; the condensed water vapor in the humid air gave a sense of mystery as the skies clouded with worry above the pointed roof decorations. The many windows faced towards me, & I can’t help but wonder, ‘did I see someone walking in the hallways of the ancient castle?’” Jushiro wrote down in the journal with the picture pinned in it. 

Forest-green eyes squinted at a window from afar, and a shadowy figure waved in his wife's figure. He rubbed his eyes to refocus, but it was his grief playing tricks on him. A coat hanger around her height stood in one of the rooms. A saddened smile on his face as he whispered, “She would have loved this place, too. But I’ve got places to see for my wife.” 

The smell of a summer breeze tickled his senses as he arrived in Washington state, up a hiking trail to reach the beautiful scenery before him. The reflection of the blue skies on the water with the reflection of sunlight illuminating the crest of the water. The fishes swim around, yet he fails to see a pair of carp. It left him with a smile. As he took a picture, a pair of ducks were swimming side by side. He pinned the image on the journal & wrote, “As I closed my eyes, I can feel my nerves calm by the splashing of the water; with my eyes opened, I can see a pair of ducks swimming side by side. Oh, how I wish that were us, side-by-side, holding hands, as we reach each destination.” 

As he turned away, songbirds flew above him, singing a melody oh so beautiful, but, in his grieving heart, it sounded like a melody of yearning. He shook his head as his mind wondered if he should stay longer, “no, I’ve got places to go for my wife.” 

A massive jump in scenery, from the clear skies of Washington state to the gloomy ones in Edinburgh, Scotland, reflects his crying heart. The urge to step out from underneath his umbrella & to be pelted by the skies. The smell of rain that his wife always said gave her mixed feelings. Sometimes, it reflected the sadness in her heart; other times, it reflected the coming of a new season. “Before I die, I will visit Edinburgh; I heard from the locals that they call it the ‘Athens of the North,’ though I can’t say I’ve been in the human world during that period. But, seeing this scenery, I’m sure it was a place of wonder. The rain makes the roads sparkle with street lights illuminating, kids smiling & laughing, running around joyously without care. Would our family have liked this place if you were by my side?” Jushiro hummed a little, pinning the picture to the journal. 

A few raindrops fell onto his shoulders as he headed to his hotel. It reminded him of the days you were playful, tapping him on the shoulder but acting like it wasn’t you. He laughed a little at the memory, “I can’t stay for long; I’ve got places to go for you, my love.” 

The warmth of the Blue Lagoon shocked Jushiro. The writing in the journal from his wife couldn’t explain what he was saying; it was fogging from the steam of the lagoon. A view that should have been freezing thawed the ice surrounding his heart after his wife had passed away. He snapped a video and a picture on the Polaroid before writing down, “The ice that surrounds my fragile heart thawed at the sight of the lagoon, the warmth charging at me with a warm embrace. I wish I could have visited this place with you when you were still alive.” 

As he turned away, the ripples of the lagoon beckoned him to stay. As much as he wanted to, all he could do was shake his head and respond quietly, “My wife is waiting for me.” 

There were a few more places to go, but he had to rearrange the order of some of the ones on the list, as seasons don’t pass in the order of how it was organized. Jushiro went to a desert in Morocco, traveling with a group of travelers who were there to check off a list as well. But he kept to himself as he rode on the camel’s back. The sand, once smooth, was now thoroughly plowed through by the camel. He took a few pictures of the sand and the line before him. He writes down awkwardly in his journal, “The sand plowed through by the journey ahead of us. I’m grateful that my journey was filled with you. I wish for more, but you must take a step first.” He smiled, realizing that most of the writing before was just him describing the scenery he saw before him. But he wasn’t sure who would read it if he were to follow after his wife. It’s not like they had kids together, and he wasn’t sure anyone else in Gotei 13 would be comfortable reading through these. At one point, the writing turned into desperate pleas for his wife to return to his side. Just because the ice had thawed, it didn’t change how much he still wanted to be by her side. 

As he boarded a flight out of Morocco, the golden sand beckoned where he stayed. But he shook his head once more, “I might be back, I might not. Let’s see where my wife awaits me.” 

When he arrived back in Japan to pick up a few items from Urahara’s store, he was greeted by the shopkeeper, who asked where he was going. It was rare for Kisuke to attempt to converse with him; he’s kept to himself ever since his wife’s passing. Surprised, Jushiro smiled a little, pointing at your handwriting in the journal. “Go to Paris in the Fall. My wife thinks the theme there is romantic, so that’ll be where I’m headed.” 

“What are your plans after you’ve visited everywhere your wife wanted to go?” 

Jushiro blinked a few times, humming thoughtfully, “I haven’t decided. She says, "If at the end of the trip, I still wanted to be with her, then she couldn’t stop me from following her.” He intended to die as well, something that was out of everyone’s control. Jushiro offered a sad smile, “don’t tell anyone, please don’t try to stop me either.” 

Kisuke huffed, nodding at his request. As he turned away to leave, he had to squeeze out one more sentence, “Be careful, and there have been sightings of the Gate to Hell repeatedly opening in Karakura town and the town over; it’s been frequent. But the spiritual pressure near it has been too strong, and it’s nearly impossible to tell what’s happening. The Gotei 13 is worried for you.” 

Jushiro understood the implications; it was because he had died only to be pulled back. Perhaps they were trying to take him back, “Thank you for your warning. I’ll be careful,” with that, he left the shopkeeper. Although what he said did bother him, he didn’t think much about it as he was ready to book a flight and head to the airport, a sudden spike of spiritual pressure-charged at him. 

When Kisuke said it was strong, he didn’t think it would suffocate; it was far more substantial than a captain’s spiritual pressure. He took a few steps before collapsing at the intersection. From the corner of his eye, he recognized a familiar figure with a taller figure, speaking as if the pressure was not affecting them. As he crawled a little closer to confirm his suspicion, he was right. 

The familiar spiritual pressure, although suffocating, was that of his wife. You were standing there, leaning against the wall, dressed in black, talking to the taller man before you. The two of you had a solemn look. As much as he wanted to run up to you and hug you, his body defied his orders. All he could do was watch from afar. He was doing his best to hear what you two were talking about. For all he knew, he was sure you had died in his arms. Why you were in Karakura town with a suffocating amount of spiritual pressure is beyond him. 

“We have to wipe your memory,” the taller man spoke, crossing his arms, “just because you’re a gatekeeper doesn’t mean you can jump in and out of Hell to seek out your husband. He could have moved on for all we know, and you wouldn’t know.” Jushiro wanted to object, and he would never move on from you. He gritted his teeth but could do nothing about it. 

“I think you forgot,” just hearing your voice calmed Jushiro down. It made his feelings of following after your death and waiting for so long all the worth. “This body,” he watched you point to yourself near accusingly, “was forcibly given to me. I cannot permanently stay in Hell; it rots away. It ages far too fast.” As you explained the facts, the man nodded, “Yes, I miss my husband. But, I cannot go against the wishes of the previous owner, who requested that I live for her and find her biological parents. Just because she was young back then doesn’t make it any less of a sin if I went against her wishes now.” Jushiro heard of possession, but he thought that was a thing of the myths. Soul reapers cannot possess a body, yet he didn’t know members of Hell could. 

“We’re still wiping your memory; that way, it would keep your powers in check,” the man said, placing his hand on your forehead. " Do you have any last words?” 

As you were about to talk, Jushiro managed to call your name, enough to catch both your and the man’s attention. "Shiro? Why are you? Your spiritual pressure is too strong, King of Hell,” you responded annoyingly.

The man shook his head lightly. " No, that’s you. I suppressed it before coming here to meet you. That’s why I said we need to wipe your memory. It’s also suffocating to those around you, not that you know it.” 

“Would I–” 

“Yes, you can get your memory back,” the man glanced at Jushiro, who stood back up after a bit. If he can trigger them correctly, you can remember. You’re mighty strong. I was looking forward to you joining the ranks in Hell; I didn’t know she would join in your place instead.” As you were ready to object, and Jushiro was prepared to respond, the King of Hell ended up wiping your memory, leaving the memory of when you came into possession of the body. “Oops, it’s not like you weren’t strong; you just ended up in Soul Society instead of Hell during your first death; that was my bad. The least I can do now is give you a life back in the world of living as you deserve.” 

As your body collapsed from the memory wipe, Jushiro rushed to your side; his embrace around your body was to check if you were alive. Which you were, just passed out from the sudden surge. 

“I’ll be taking her back to her home. Give her a few years. In the meantime, she’s still trying to get her degree. I do recommend you go back to Gotei 13. It would be nice not to be investigated since we have rules. " That gave Jushiro something to do while he waited for you. He nodded, reluctant to let you go, but at the end of the day, his heart calmed down, and he did. 

Watching the man leave with your limp body, he memorized your spiritual pressure and the way you were dressed, all just to find you in the future—his plans of following you after your death were erased. 

“I guess Halloween truly is the day of the dead,” Jushiro spoke quietly, recalling what he had picked up from travelers as he visited places you requested.

---------------------------------------------

Happy Halloween! I originally wrote something else as a show of power, but this would be better for the spooky season. The sequel will be posted tomorrow, but do know that the story is based on a reader who doesn’t remember Jushiro. Or any knowledge of Soul Society or Hell. It’ll be explained slowly as the story progresses. Think of it as a slow burn.

1, 2, 5, and 25 for the blorbo ask meme?

But, of course, Anon. 1 . Who’s the Blorbo that you’ve never posted about on your blog? Already answered.

2. Who was your first ever Blorbo, who was your childhood Blorbo, and are they still your Blorbo? My first ever "Blorbo" and childhood "Blorbo" was this guy:

My turtle son who shaped my personality and personal life philosophies in ways I couldn't begin to describe. And, yes. As of revisiting the series, a couple of years ago, I still love him dearly, and would die for him and his story arc, which is one of the best handlings of Post Traumatic Stress Disorder that I've ever encountered in a show made to sell toys to children. The Voltron: Legendary Defender showrunners should have taken some serious pointers from this cartoon. 5 . What’s the thing you dislike the most about your Blorbo? For my "Blorbos" who hail from deeply flawed pieces of media, I despise the way they were treated by their creators. Troy Bolton gets stuck in a toxic relationship with a self-centered fair weather girlfriend that he decided to center his future around, and Shiro...

"Universe's Punching Bag" is about the only term that comes anywhere close to describing just how egregiously he was mistreated. And, 25. How did you first discover your Blorbo? Once again, already answered. -- Thank you very much for asking! /ᐠ > ˕ <マ ₊˚⊹♡

Umm the usual assortment of lance allura and kuron for that ask thingy <33(can be all three or just one if you dont feel like it!!!) scurries away

Thank you for asking bestie ❤❤❤. Ngl my brain is baked these days so I'll be only one this time

Kuron-

three facts about them from my personal headcanons-

Huge ass nerd. Especially about classic lit but he's also this pic about it-

2. Enters 'Shiro look-a-like Cosplay' competition specifically to do the Worst Most Awful impression of Shiro, he also got the scar on the wrong side through makeup (its a coping mechanism leave him alone) If he and Shiro had a better relationship (and Shiro stopped being a bitch about the clone thing) they both would enter that competition and Kuron will win while Shiro will get last and Kuron doesn't know whether to laugh or cry or curl up in a corner and die

3. Fighting for his life anytime he gets a headache or a migraine. Constantly swinging between "it's just a headache! Haggar's dead! It's just a headache! Haggar's dead! It's just-" And "I am going to die"

a reason they suck-

Babygirl I know you are going Through it but you got to stop going behind your teams back and yell at them, Lotor was so not worth it.

Also is just so focused on being The Leader he forgot being Team Member

a reason they are great-

He's just trying so much???!?! Like he is doomed no matter what happened and he didn't even know it but he was still trying his best and he fought and tried to survive till his very last breath 🥺🥺🥺🥺 my boy he deserved better

a reason I relate to them-

I kinda don't? Relatability of a character isn't really my priority as much as studying them in a microscope is. If I had to I guess our tendency to not communicate well and be a bit snappish when stressed? The feeling of not being in control about anything in your life? Otherwise I can't think of any

(what I consider to be) the top tier otp/ot3 for that character-

I still think about toxic yaoi Kuron/Lotor that would never work and destroy them both btw if you even care

But also like screw romance give him as many friends as he wants

five things that never happened to that character that I believe should have happened-

Him getting to live

Him getting to live as his own person

Him getting to live as his own person in his own body

Him getting to live as his own person in his own body and not treated as Evil Shiro clone but a friend

Shiro fucking apologises to him (I know there are others who have done far FAR worse things to Kuron and Shiro has his own trauma and I like Shiro! But also listening to him being mean to my son no. 1 WHILE being mean about my tragic son no. 2 and all I could think of was, "Shut the fuck up forever actually bitch")

five people that character never fell in love with and why-

Again do I really have to answer this one?? Like can't we ignore all shipping fandom? Ugh fine

Haggar (for obvious reasons)

Zarkon (stated as above and in fact these two can be interchanged)

Sendak (sure Kuron hasn't actually met Sendak but he does have Shiro's memories and he sucks in all of them)

Iverson (because fuck him)

Slav (I don't hate Slav but I have to agree with people when they say that Slav and Shiro trigger each other's anxieties and trauma and this applies to Kuron as well)

Hello, I like your art can you share some Sasajima Kyouya/Wrath headcanons? He’s my favourite character.

OHMYGOSH THANK YOU SO MUCH???

*cracks knuckles* YOU’VE COME TO THE RIGHT PLACE. Honestly he’s my Favorite too! A decent of my Headcanons for him revolve around my OT3 or the Demon Army Family so here we go!

This may contain vague Spoilers and I may edit this for grammar or to add more details…

Honestly consider this part 1 because if you ask again later I’d probably have even more written down lol.

(I’m ripping this from my KumoDesu Fanfic ideas Doc so if some of the wording is wonky that’s why btw THERE’S A LOT)

To start I’ve def said this before here: Things to note I’m obsessed with my headcannon of Shun x Katia x Kyouya as an OT3 and there is zero content but I have a million ideas but no energy. Also you can rip the headcannon of the demon army as family with Ariel x Shiraoi as the parents to Mera, Sophia, and Kyouya (and YES I have a long winded modern and other AUs shut up) from my cold dead hands.

Shiro and Kyouya Mother-Son: The Labyrinth and the Mountains are probably the 2 harshest environments in the world. So I like to think that because of growing up in these environments Shiro and Kyouya both have some weird but similar values. I’ve always kinda seen them very much as Mother and Son. The Labyrinth was harsher so she has some more insane survival methods and he sort of looks up to it. (Side note: I know some people Ship them and I never want to throw discourse, you’re allowed to ship whatever you want so don’t want to say much, but personally I hate it very much I could go into why but it’s mostly my character reads and taste). Ariel and Shiro give off so many Mom vibes when it comes to Mera, Kyouya, and Sophia to me lol (and yes they would be siblings in that order I don’t remember where but I think the LN said Goblins have shorter pregnancies so Kyouya is slightly older than Sophia lol). Sophia especially with Kyouya reads as the “no one is allowed to bully my Brother but me” vibes and I love it. Her and Kyouya also both definitely look up to Mera as someone who’s well put together.

For the hair of the non-human reincarnations: Shiro’s hair feels like silk. Fei’s hair feels like feathers. And Kyouya’s hair feels like soft animal down. I bet Katia asks to play with Kyouya’s hair and then has a flied day with how soft it is. I also like to think she tries to convince him to let her do his nails lol.

For lifespan: So Shiroai is immortal, I’m assuming Ariel has a long life span close to that (ignoring the end of the novel with Ariel spoilers), and Mera and Sophia are somewhere in the same boat or close to that… How long is Kyouya’s lifespan??? For most angst is he gonna outlive his human friends but die before his demon family???

Goblins are just Hamsters: The Goblins look like they’re based on Hamster so you can not take away from me the Headcanon they’re language is just Hamster noises. I like to think Kyouya teaches it to the others so they can use it as code. (The Demon Army can communicate purely with inhuman noises lol). I like to think Kyouya purrs instead or snores because of this as well. I also like to think because he grew up around the Goblins he just sees them as people and doesn’t get what everyone thinks they look like.

Kyouya’s height: Kyouya was a manlet before reincarnation it's cannon I’m living. Okay and technically speaking he probably is after reincarnation as well. Like they are in a European Fantasy setting and he’s only “considerably taller than he used to be” which was considerably short for a Japanese High Schooler. Also in Ex2 we see him standing next to a Puppet Taratect (which are all short af) yet they come up to his shoulder.

Housewife vibes: I think what Kyouya wants in life is to be a Housewife ngl. Like he was most satisfied working to support people he was close to both in his past life online game and the goblin village. Plus I think though he did that by making weapons he would prefer not to have to fight. What if he makes good knives and just starts cooking for people. Like I don’t have more words right now so this is short but I could go off here.

My OT3 Agenda: Background: I’m just saying Kyouya is really depressed and probably doesn’t have any plans for after the war but I could see Ariel having in him work in the human area with Shun and Katia (probably cause she feels a bit sad about him losing friends) because he’s in their upper ranks and unlike Sophia can actually deal with people. But I feel like Shun and Katia feel bad that they had each other and he had to grow up all alone so they try and reconnect. Shun, because he really clings to the connections he does have and because they were so close in their past lives, desperately wants to rebuild that. Katia because she seems similarly attached to people she considers friends she’s afraid of losing that and probably feels bad for writing Kyoua off as maybe an enemy and not being there for him like she was for Shun. Kyouya is just deeply confused that they still want anything to do with him and feels undeserving but is really happy. Confession: I think Katia knows about her feelings first but doesn’t say anything due to self esteem issues (except some flirting to test the waters). I think Kyouya has a realization ™ and feels unsure of what to do (also self esteem issues). But ends up visibly being a little off which Shun notices and brings up to Katia (she sorta noticed as well) so she confronts him which ends in a mutual confession between the two as they then decide how to tell Shun. Shun meanwhile worried what’s going irks Fei who decides to inform him of his very obvious (to everyone but him) crushes. Now realizing his feelings he’s very awkward about it until Katia and Kyouya confront him and confession ensues. Now realizing they all love each other: OT3 successful.

Taking this outta the tags: Not even kidding answering asks about KumoDesu because I’ve sort of come to be know as a KumoDesu blog is like,,, I’m living my dream right now. I haven’t even posted my Kumoko Cosplay or that much Art yet but people just wanna hear my opinion???? Literally these asks give me so much dopamine feel free to keep them coming.

[discordiansamba]

spitballing some more about the Mer AU because I can. it's my blog and I make the rules.

I like to imagine that before Hunk and Lance can even like, consistently communicate with each other, they've already established a tradition I would like to call 'bring the other the coolest thing they can find and show them off'. Show and tell but it's a human and a merman.

Hunk introduces Lance to human cuisine. Lance brings Hunk fish in return, which Hunk brings to his parents. He got them from his friend Lance! :)

Hunk's mom, unsuspecting: Oh, Hunk must have befriended a fisherman's son.

The town of Plaht City is actually relatively close knit, so when Keith goes missing after his father's death, everyone goes looking for him. No one thinks to look in the ocean.

Heath was originally from out of town. He's a marine researcher who lives on a remote piece of property on the beach, complete with a recovery pool for injured marine life housed in a shack he built on the water. The townsfolk hear rumors that he has a partner, but no one ever meets her. One day he comes into town with a son.

I think Mer actually lay like. the mer equivalent of fish eggs but they can also get pregnant in the human sense in their human forms. This means every other Mer but Keith was hatched from a fish egg (and also probably part of the reason why Keith prefers the surface).

When Keith abruptly turns back up again after going missing for a year and a half, it's huge news at the time but things have calmed down now. He's taken in by Shiro's parents after some debate over who should look after him.

When Shiro's parents die, Keith just sort of assumes he'll be on his own from now. Shiro catches him halfway out the window with a bag of his stuff and has to explicitly tell him he can stay before he gets the message.

Keith just sort of aimlessly drifts though life. He's not really sure what he wants, or even sometimes where he belongs. He's never met another half-Mer, or even any other Galra Mers. All the Mers in Plaht City are Altean Mers.

Lotor is a highly successful businessman who invests a lot of his money into the town's infrastructure. He's generally well liked, except by Keith, who can't stand his face. The feeling is mutual.

Even in human form, Keith's lung capacity is well above average. He can open his eyes underwater with no ill effects.

Allura is eager to befriend Keith, despite his strange, surface-dwelling ways. Lance is also not totally hiding from Allura because he knows if she seems him and Hunk hanging out together, she'll put two and two together and realize that Hunk knows what he is and then he'll get in trouble.

Romelle and Allura are childhood friends. She's heard her talk on a few occasions about the strange mute Galra Mer she befriend that she calls 'Red', but she doesn't have any reason to connect him to Keith.

Mers can send and receive thoughts in human form as well... except for Keith of course, who can't even receive thoughts in human form. Lance thinks he's just being rude, Allura thinks he just prefers verbal communication. Only Coran has correctly deduced the truth.

(Shiro can send and receive thoughts just fine once he's freed from Haggar's control, which is... an adjustment for him.)

Keith's the only Mer who knows how to swim as a human. If you toss Lance into a pool and tell him to swim, he's just gonna drown. Keith thinks this is incredibly funny.

Excerpt from Chapter 7 of Lost and Found: A Broganes Story

*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~

Shiro clenched his hands around the steering wheel and relaxed them. "I know you don't know Adam very well, but if I die, would you be okay with him being your guardian? If you're not, I have a couple of other people I could introduce you to." Actually, he pretty much just had Sam and Colleen, but he knew they would take in Keith if he asked.

Keith clenched his fists in his lap. "First of all, you're not allowed to die. If you die I'm walking to wherever dead people go and dragging you home. Second of all... can I think about it?" 

Against himself, Shiro chuckled. "Deal," he said. "Of course you can think about it, but I'd prefer to get this done as soon as you make your decision. If Owen's will had named a guardian, things would have been easier." He paused. "Let me know if you want to meet the other people I have in mind."

"Who are they?" Keith asked. 

"Sam and Colleen Holt," Shiro said. "Sam was with me on the last mission I took. His son, Matt, is one of my best friends. They have another daughter, Katie, so they're pretty experienced with kids." 

He should ask Sam for advice. He should ask Sam for so much advice.

Trick or treat! 👻

friend, hello! I know VLD isn't your fandom anymore, but you are receiving this scene that I'm very fond of from an unfinished sequel.

untitled

Excerpt from the sequel to the incomprehensible vastness of space. This draft is 23k and largely written, but I lost steam and burned out on the ship. I think about finishing it sometimes, but the day has never come. In TIVOS, Shiro remained as a gladiator and worked as a spy for the Blade. Keith eventually rescued him. The following scene is a conversation between Shiro and a Galran who turns out to be related to someone he knows. This is from a first draft so please excuse any quirks. VLD / sheith (referenced). 1,080 words

Seven of the eight Galra in the hold were refusing food and water. The only one that had accepted was the same one who had answered Shiro’s question about how many of them were left. Six were asleep. One, the man with the scar, sat facing the door of his cell with his arms crossed, eyes forward and determined but not focused on anything.

He was the one Shiro had come to see. He was sure he’d met him before. He’d encountered hundreds of Galra in his time in the pits—handlers, medics, others fighters like him. Could he have been part of Sendak’s circle?

The Galran wouldn’t even look at him as he approached the cell.  

“What do they call you?” Shiro asked, not expecting an answer. 

The Galran only stiffened his posture. Shiro sighed. 

“You know, where I come from, people say thanks when you save their life.”

“It was my desire to die.”

“Would you have let one of your own save you?”

The Galran took a deep breath. “You fought in the pits? Which facility?”

“I don’t know the name of the first one. The second was the arena planet. Did I meet you at one of Sendak’s parties?”

“I have never set foot on that planet.” 

There was bitterness in his words, but his disdain seemed to be more for the sport itself than for Shiro. He’d never heard of Galra who disapproved of arena fighting. Of course, what he knew of the culture came from avid fans. People who attended the matches. But it made sense that there would be people who found the sport barbaric. Maybe this Galran had lost a family member to the pits. Maybe he’d been forced to fight once himself. He’d never asked, but Shiro had always suspected that was how Jumi had lost her leg. 

At the recollection of her name, he did a double-take and looked at the Galran’s face more carefully. Although his features were rougher, a blending of genetics, Shiro thought he could see some of her in him. 

“Your mother,” he said. “What was her name?”

The Galran laughed humorlessly. “Since you are asking that, I assume you already know.”

“You’re her son?”

“Was.” The Galran looked up. “I was her son before she betrayed the empire. She was discovered working with a group of traitors. They were stealing ship parts that belonged to the Empire, with the intention of selling them on the black market. She agreed to provide information in order to spare our lives. I was fourteen. We lived as outcasts. She fought to put food on the table. But she was alive because she had betrayed not only the Empire but the people she had worked with. She was dishonorable. As soon as I had an opportunity to enlist, I joined the army.”

“I’m sure she did what she had to in order to protect you,” Shiro said.

“Did you know she was an operative for the Blade of Marmora?”

With Jumi already dead, Shiro figured there wasn’t any harm in confirming it. “Yes.”

“I learned that after her death. She’d been recruited by them before I was born. The rest had been a front to protect them.” He closed his eyes. “Such loyalty.”

Shiro wasn’t sure what he should say. The Galran’s words didn’t match his expression. Although his posture was rigid and he spoke bitterly, his face was a child’s longing for his mother.

“Jumi talked about you,” Shiro said and the Galran flinched. 

“She was ashamed of me.”

“That’s not the impression I got. She missed you. She wanted to see you again after the war.”

“You were close with her?”

Shiro crossed his arms and smiled lightly. “Close probably isn’t the right word. She took care of me. She’s the reason I got out of there.”

“What a waste of a life,” said the Galran. “She spent it in the pits like a commoner.”

“She was pretty accomplished with biotech. Made a lot of modifications to this arm.” 

He held it out. The Galran gave it a cursory look, trying not to seem impressed, although his eyes gave him away. He must not have known that about her. Twice, he cleared his throat before continuing. 

“How did she die?”

“I’m not sure,” Shiro said. “One day she just stopped coming.”

The Galran nodded and inclined his head. “Sendak was not kind to traitors.”

Sendak had not been kind at all. Shiro could still feel the searing liquor at the back of his throat, hear the low rumble of his laughter. He shuddered at the memory of that crooked smile backlit by the light from his arm.

“The Blade of Marmora doesn’t support putting Lotor on the throne,” Shiro said. That wasn’t information he should be sharing with outsiders but he felt it was something this Galran needed to hear. The Galran looked up suddenly. 

“How do you know this?”

“We work with them,” Shiro said. “Listen. We’re on course for Central Command right now. There’s no guarantee Zarkon will ever retake the throne. We are about to hand you over to Lotor unless you can give me a reason not to.”

The Galran’s eyes widened. “You would let us go?”

Shiro lowered his voice. “I could hand you over to the Blade instead. My partner’s one of their leaders. I can call him right now.”

“The human?”

“That’s right. His mom’s also a member. She probably knew your mother.”

“What’s her name?”

“Krolia,” Shiro said. 

The Galran squinted like he was trying to remember something from a long time ago.

“I don’t know what’s going to happen to you once we turn you over to Lotor,” Shiro said. “But the Blade won’t harm you. You might not have the same end goal, but right now you’re working toward the same thing.”

After a few seconds, the Galra said, “What about my team?”

“You can all leave together.” 

“Your Princess would allow it?”

“I’ll speak with her,” Shiro said. “The Blade will probably insist because you’re a legacy.”

Almost a minute passed. Eventually, the Galran took a deep breath. “I request you contact the Blade.”

Shiro nodded. “Sit tight. I’ll be back.”

“Brin.”

“Excuse me?” Shiro said.

“My name.” Brin didn’t smile, but his eyes didn’t hold as much malice. Shiro walked out of the hold and tapped his watch.

“Allura, I just spoke with one of the Galrans in captivity. There’s been a change of plans.”

[nebucat]

Y'know, I still think sh/eith is a weird af pairing. I still maintain the "it's not for me but I genuinely don't care if other people like it and they can do what they want because caring that much about what other people ship is a waste of energy and honestly just as weird to do" mindset but like, if I'm going to post my actual thoughts about that pairing, here's what they are:

Sh/eith is just the Son/Tails of the Voltron fandom, just older. I think I could see it if they met under different circumstances such as: if Keith was already an adult, and Shiro never took up a mentor like role to him, I could see it. But because of the canonical way they interact with each other and the way they met and when they met, it just squicks me out to throw a romance plot in there man. Keith was either 15 or 16 when he met Shiro, who was like 20/21. You know people would be losing their mind if Keith was a girl. It's just icky to me. So I don't like canonical context for Sh/eith. Plus it feels out of character too, like at best I can see Keith having a one-sided crush on Shiro, and maybe trying to express that at some point, but Shiro would gently reject him because he only ever treats Keith like an apprentice/little brother and he recognizes that it would be weird. Maybe if they got older, Like way older and the dynamic shifted, maybe? But still, I just can't see Shiro returning those feelings.

Again, if they met under different circumstances and their dynamic was different, I could see it. I could even see myself shipping it - because of their personalities, they would just be human Sonadow or Shadowpeach even.

Just not with the context that canon gave us. It's weird to me. And it's weird to me how some shippers doubled down on defending it even when it was confirmed on screen that Shiro raised Keith, instead of just taking the L and learning to enjoy the pairing separate from the show's canon. Like, I can totally understand shippers frustration, because everything about the writing for the show was a total dumpster fire anyways and it kind of just felt like after season 3 nothing made sense ever anymore and most people who shipped it were there from the very beginning before the ages were canonically stated, and it sucks to have shitty and inconsistent writing desicions blow holes in your ship. But it was very bizarre seeing die hard shippers still defend it in canon after Keith and Shiro's backstory was actually shown.

The other thing is, I still never got the impression even from the very start that they had a romantic bond. It always came across as genuinely brotherly/mentor mentee dynamic to me and that is how it was always intended as we come to find out later in the show. I think some people misinterpreted it and latched on to the pairing tbh.

But you know what else? Kudos to the Sh/eith shippers for not being fucking batshit insane and insufferable like Kl/ance stans/anti sh/aladins, that's why I always liked the people who shipped sh/eith or sh/aladin pairings in general more, because they always were the more down-to-earth and reasonable party and just wanted to vibe and do their own thing. (At least, most of them. Not the ones who were still hoping for canon Sh/eith. I feel like most of the people who ship it understand that it's weird in canon context, and probably just wanted to use the moments they had on screen together as ship fodder for their own self-indulgence with the pairing, while recognizing the canonical context that is there.) shout out to the people who were able to differentiate between canon and fanon, they were way ahead of their time LMAO.

So the verdict? Canon Sh/eith is weird to me and I can't see it, and I can't spend time with the pairing without seeing them as older brother younger brother and interpreting it as romantic feels incorrect and OOC. AU Sh/eith I could actually see however, but it would require very different context. I think it could be cute. Especially because Keith is the temperamental, super loyal, narratively tortured type who would set himself on fire to save his loved ones, while Shiro is the calm, confident DILF type that would be Keith's emotional rock and I eat that shit up in most of my pairings that I like.

And this is why I never took a side in the discourse 👍 because I was always team "just do whatever the fuck you want and don't be annoying or mean to other people about it" LMAO

Watching Voltron:Legendary Defender for the First Time and Recording my Thoughts

S1-2 | S3 | S4 | S5 | you are here! | S7 | S8

<this debrief/review is pretty rant heavy because of how the season personally impacted me, but fret not! i (hopefully) made it to be still enjoyable/fun to read! just a heads up tho!!>

You get to see the “Pre” thoughts before the read more this time! As a treat <3

Pre-S6 Thoughts

->for the most part I think I understand what’s going on with shiro, but I want to really make sure. jussssst in case.

->they gave lance a big focus in season five so hopefully “we” get to see what that’s culminating to. Super excited about that!

->I don’t fw Lotor all that much despite him being the blorbo by proxy (oomf’s fav) but hopefully this season can change that. I’m just beginning to like him (beginning!) and it’s a 400k slowburn melting an ice berg of hate at that. but it’s getting there. soon they’ll hold hands.

->despite my personal enjoyment of allurance, I would be okay with lotura if Lotor got fully redeemed (in the show and in my heart)

-> PLEASE MAKE KEITH COME BACK!! AND WITH HIS MOM!! I’M BEGGING.

->I’ve noticed a sort of pattern where the characters get a specific episode(s) dedicated to them each season (shiro s1, keith s2, keith+allura s3, pidge s4, and lance s5) So hopefully hunk gets his focus episode this season

->I NEED to see what happened after keith found out about krolia

->hopefully more haggar/honerva lore, maybe even lotor lore to redeem him using Tragic Backstory™ points

Post-Season Six

-> what the actual frick.

-> what WAS this season bro.

-> This season had me getting punched,kicked and tortured left and right and up and down and everywhere. the plot twists and dramatic turns and cries and gasps just kept coming

-> this season left me like lance at the climax of a langst fanfic (yk like right b4 they save him and he’s all fucked over)

-> there are lots of things i liked and also SO MUCH i didn’t like this season

-> so pros and cons basically that’s it that’s the “review”

->WE GOT HUNK APPRECIATION!!! HE GOT TO BE THE ENGINEER AND BE SUPER HELPFUL AND ACTUALLY USE ONE OF HIS SKILLS ABDUWBDJSN IM SO HAPPY FOR MY BOY. MY SON. AAAAHHH.

->^LITERALLY LOOK AT HIM!!! HE GOT SOLID CHARACTER DEVELOPMENT TOO!! He reacted much calmer than his s1/2 self would have in a far less stressful situation!!! He grew up!!! HE GREW UPPPP!!

->^He looks like he’s itching to make a gay joke

->why did lance “die” in the first ep?? It was so random and literally served no purpose?? like it was never talked about in the other episodes and was literally just randomly put in the episode’s run time. it had nothing to do with the shield or whatever was going on with Shiro or lotor either

->does it get talked about in the next seasons or?? like it was literally just a throwaway scene

->KEITH AND HIS MOM!!! THEYRE BONDING!!! KEITH MAKES GOOD RELATIONSHIPS!!!!

->the whole “two years” thing is a little difficult to comprehend on all of its layers but I like to think of it positively because that means Keith and krolia got to spend time building upon their relationship and everything that krolia missed, more than just those flashbacks were “memory shared” between them, and keith resolved some of his internal conflicts.

->however it is probably going to make Keith be even more distant with the team because in his mind two years passed while in theirs only like 2-3 months passed from seeing him in person (if you don’t count 5x04 but they barely saw him there) so the relationships that he was building with them have fallen back a little on his part but the others still feel super close to him, so I hope that also gets resolved in s7

-> LANCE IS CUBAN!!! I got super excited you guys don’t understand. maybe you do considering the notes on my post where I said that. But still. I actually squealed so loud when he said it.

-> The mock DnD episode was super fun!! the calm before the storm though I guess

->i looooved the fact that keith came back to the team but that episode pissed me off SOOOOO FREAKING BAD BRO.

->^“we need to attack Lotor when he comes back” OMFGGGGGG NOOOOOOOO THATS literally so STUPID. make a PLAN first you freaking IDIOTS.

->^Literally if they had just played it cool when lotura came back and then told Allura about everything privately THEN stage an intervention/interrogation with Lotor like in Season 5, NONE OF THAT WOULD’VE HAPPENED.

->^but nooooooo we have to be STUPID and ATTACK IMMEDIATELY because PLOT REASONS. istg. don’t get me started this isn’t even the beginning of that rant. I just… *long suffering sigh*

->^and the way they immediately took the altean girl’s word and turned on Lotor? Y’all some fake ass bitches fr didn’t even let the man defend himself. it could’ve been a misunderstanding but okay. damn.

->^WHY ARE YOU INCRIMINATING YOURSELF BRO. OH MY GODDDDDD. every time i told myself that this episode couldn’t get any worse,, it. got. FUCKING. WORSE.

->^low key get the altean girl’s frustration tho because that shit was traumatizing. literally my live reaction right there

-> the only good things that happened that episode were lance calling keith hot and the team meeting krolia. maybe the lotura kiss. (I would’ve enjoyed it more if it wasn’t for the knowledge that they were straight up gonna beat Lotor’s ass when they got inside the castle)

->I guess I have to suffer for the absolute SQUEAL I gave when Kieth went up to the black lion and said “FORM VOLTRON” making them do the thing where they’re divided into 5 frames like a comic

->^that bitch ass clone better be ready to catch these hands. you do NOT say that to my boy.

->I got so excited when keith went all galra! ultimately yeah he did it because he was incredibly stressed but still it was super cool!

-> I was actually a little sad that Lotor didn’t get a real redemption. Like yeah I saw it from a mile away by the way he talked about quintessence and overall attitude but idk,, like him and allura actually seemed in love. even if he was just doing it for the quintessence you could tell he actually ended up genuinely falling in love with her. maybe it’s just me, but i think it would’ve been nice.

-> maybe keith and him could’ve bonded about being half-galra, and keith would finally get some solidarity with someone who knows exactly how he feels? idk it’s just a lot of missed opportunity there.

-> and then they just…kill him off…wow. that was a lot to take in. I had to actually take a moment. I mean it wasn’t even his fault, really. the quintessence got to him just like his parents. it’s actually super tragic now that I think about it. reminds me of family jewels by MARINA.

->I will say though that final battle was absolutely amazing. Beautifully animated and the action was great. I loved getting to see all the lions powers in the quintessence field. And the flaming sword?? that was literally awesome.

-> my hopes of allurance died but i think this is actually a really good step, Allura still felt bad for lotor when she didn’t wanna leave him in the quintessence field because she still loved him and after the conversation she had with the mice it was obvious she doesn’t (and won’t) like lance back, (she could’ve began to in s4/5) and lance seems to accept this as well, (seeing how he handles it when allura confides in him) which would be good for their relationship. so im happy about that 😊

->ngl if they ended it here it could’ve been pretty good, solid ending. Like, leave the rest up to interpretation sort of thing. (Yes I know there are some strings to be tied yet but yk what I mean) The ending was really satisfactory and if they just fixed a couple plot holes it would’ve been the perfect way to end the show tbh. Idk tho I still need to watch the last two seasons so I’ll see if I still keep my opinion then

->lance’s s5 focus didn’t really culminate to all that much, but he got to be taken seriously when he cried about shiro, so there’s that.

-> the clone!shiro vs keith fight was literally beautiful too omg. The emotions were perfectly captured and the flashbacks were just so perfectly timed it was incredible. the way you could just feel exactly everything keith felt as he fought what looked identical to the man who practically raised him was just. wow.

->^literally gorgeous. look at that, man. beautiful.

-> Don’t get me started on “you’re my brother, I love you” because I will start crying immediately

-> So. yeah. This season was a mess. I laughed. I cried (a lot) I got super pissed in the middle. But it was really super enjoyable otherwise. Bittersweet, really.

-> Hopefully Season Seven doesn’t disappoint! I really hope there’s more Keith+Shiro lore. Just. In general all their family lore.

These are thoughts I’ve been compiling for a while. I will continue to post my thoughts on the tag “Laura’s first VLD”

Please Remember that I am just a person with a life and responsibilities and try to be patient about updates.

Thank you 💞

Okay. Real talk? V*ltron's writing was garbage. All of it. Not just the last 2 seasons. A LOT of seemingly important things brought up for plot convenience and then never mentioned again. (Shapeshifting anyone?)

I mean, I still enjoyed it. There's nothing wrong with enjoying something imperfect. I just wish people would stop acting like the show was perfect until the end, because it wasn't.

Complete and utter offense in as many ways as possible but my FULL. HEART. to my weird emo alien son whom I LOVE UNRELENTINGLY and BELIEVE in and SUPPORT and who I WILL love for the rest of my life no matter WHAT because it's my DESTINY !!!!!

You know I’m in a better mood...

... When I start spewing angsty theories! XD

So, in all likelihood, not what’s gonna happen (I maintain this always bc it multiplies my excitement if by some wild chance it does happen), but if next ep is gonna start the ‘Geiz Revive arc’...

I just had this really sad idea. Like, we’ve established that, though so far rather calmly, Shiro Woz isn’t above forcing Geiz to do what he wants (i.e. grabbing his arm and forcing him to take the Shinobi Watch--again, not extreme duress, but his reaction to Geiz saying he doesn’t take orders from him is also suspect).

But, like... What w/ Geiz apparently sticking on Sougo’s ‘side’ even though Tsukuyomi seems to have given up...  I just had this idea of him having the ‘Tokiwa Sougo is my friend and I don’t want to kill him at all’ realisation (maybe after they defeat Another Kikaider, assuming it’s the last part needed?) and possibly not wanting to become Geiz Revive at all bc that might lock them into that future, but either getting forced into it by Shiro Woz or having to use to in turn to save Sougo... Only for it to turn out that it does (at least initially--like it’d lose it later to be a normal power up) have a brainwashing effect or something?

So like, he realises he cares about Sougo and doesn’t want to kill him, only to immediately be forced to try and do so?

That’d be rough. I’d love it.

more husband!gojo x reader pls😩😩✨✨

breakfast — gojo satoru x f!reader

a/n: I added a bit of dad!gojo, hope you don’t mind <33 @mhsofe

“y/n.”

“yes, satoru?”

“do you love me?”

“hmm, I don’t know; what do you think?”

your husband whines and dramatically collapses face-first on the bed, “don’t be so mean! you’re supposed to say ‘oh satoru! you’re the love of my life who I can never get tired of!’ and fangirl about my charm!”

you merely stare at him before deadpanning, “satoru, I pushed three kids out of my vagina for you.”

he clicks his tongue, “pretty girl, you shouldn’t use such vulgar words! what if the kids hear you?”

you roll your eyes and nudge his side with your foot, “get over here, you loser.”

he complains, “such a bully,” but still moves to lay on top of you. you feel him smile through your shirt and he sighs deeply (and happily like a SIMP) before speaking up, “I missed you.”

your eyes soften as your fingers card through his hair, something that he will never get tired of you doing, “me too, ‘toru; how’s everything at jujutsu tech, now?”

“same old same old,” he huffs and you can’t help but chuckle.

satoru rolls his eyes, affectionately, before asking, “where are the kids by the way?”

you look around and shrug, “I don’t know, but it’s eerily quiet today so maybe they went out with the first years.”

“so I have you all to myself?” your husband chuckles and looks up at you with his captivating blue eyes, “then how about I make you breakfast today?”

he presses a kiss to your stomach, “it will be a five star kind of meal that you will never forget.”

suddenly, you hear a bunch footsteps rushing to your door.

you also hear the screams of your three children combined.

yuto, the eldest, kicks the door open, “NO DAD! DON’T KILL MOM!”

the middle one, mio, nods with teary eyes, hiding behind her older brother.

meanwhile, the youngest one, shiro, just jumps around screaming continuously ‘DON’T DIE MOMMY!’

looking confused, satoru pouts but gets off the bed, nonetheless, “what are you kids on about?”

satoru picks up shiro, who clings to him quickly, and wipes the tears off his face, “I wasn’t going to hurt mommy, not in a million years.”

he looks at them with a confident grin, “I was only going to make her breakfast!”

“EXACTLY!”

it takes satoru a few seconds to register what they all said.

“OH YOU BRATS! MY COOKING ISN’T THAT BAD!” he finally says and they all shake their head, albeit with fear, except your oldest son.

yuto looks at him, with sass he most definitely acquired from you, “dad, you nearly sent mio to the hospital when you made her a birthday cake.”

“I did not!” he hurriedly looks at your daughter, “you liked the cake that daddy made, right, mio?”

your daughter just walks towards you, completely avoiding her dad’s question, and instead just cuddles up to you.

satoru gasps and yuto rolls his eyes before patting his father’s back, “just don’t cook for mom, please.”

shiro jumps off his father’s arms and nods at him slowly, “yes please! we love her too much to have you do that!”

satoru falls to the ground and clutches his chest, “betrayed by my own children.”

he then looks at you, who’s now being hugged by all three, and whines, “wifeyyy! do something!”

you blow him a kiss and even in his ‘suffering’ state, he catches it.

you would think that this meant that you will have mercy on his oh so broken heart, but said heart drops to his stomach at your next words.

“let’s make daddy a pretty princess with horns!”
