Ryner helps the Voltron team get started so they could form a plan on what to do and how to hopefully save King Lubos.

When you attempt to make Ryner look hylian for a certain fic series to help a friend in need ( @winter-and-little-brunettes ) and you only have a sketchbook and someone else’s colorpencils… And then you remember you haven’t attempted traditional art in a very long time. Anyway go check out the fic and this masterpost!

I am once again frankensteining imagery from @speakswords’ fics into my own Voltron rewrite... Um. Imitation is the highest form of flattery?

The catastrophic cosmic event pictured here is the collapse of two binary stars into each other from speaks’ fic, Cores of Diamond. I read it for the first time years ago, but the visuals have always stuck with me because of speaks’ incredible prose. Tênnero reminded me a lot of what happened to Taujeer, but I find those little Taujeerians really creepy, so I rewrote it as Olkarion...

The Olkari have known for generations that their planet would eventually be destroyed by the collapse of the binary stars they orbit. They thought they had a few years left, but Haggar used her powers to disrupt the gravitational pull between the two stars, sending Olkarion to an early demise. Allura thought she could save them. Ryner soothes her with the knowledge that everything must eventually return to the same cosmic dust.

The team heads out, ready to come up with an idea on saving King Lubos. However, there are a few hitches in that plan, starting with what could potentially be a giant floating cube of death.

As on board as I am with the Stella and Leon twins headcanon

Can we consider Plance naming their daughter Ryner?

She’s pretty important to Pidge.

Yo Grandeezy, I'll give you like,, a legit ask for once(? Have I never asked a genuine ask? Idk,, anyway); if you had to replace team voltron with secondary/minor characters for an episode who would you cast?

Boi!!! I’m so ready for this ask. First of all thank u, I enjoy ur other asks but this one made me excited~so immediately I thought, Slav would be the green paladin, I definitely think that despite his anxieties (and headcanon OCD), he’s a very curious person who likes knowing things!~Nyma would be the blue paladin, I think that her natural charm (despite the way she used it), and spirit makes her a really good fit for Blue~I think that Rax is a good fit for Red because he kinda thinks a lot like Keith in that he tries to put the Balmera and his family above anything else, like strangers looking for a crystal~I’m almost 100% sure anyone could see this coming, but Shay would be a great yellow paladin (I would make a case for Plaxum if she had legs bc tbh she’d make a great yellow paladin too). Shay naturally has a very kind and open heart, similar to Hunk, and she also has a deep devotion and love for her people that drove her to act in order to help them, and I think that could easily translate over to Voltron~finally for the black lion, I think that Ryner, the Olkari leader from the Greening the Cube episode (s2 e4) would make a great black paladin. I know that she’s very connected to nature and that could potentially make her a candidate for Green, but I definitely see lots of leadership qualities in her. She’s decisive in her planning, and she doesn’t hesitate to call out Lubos for being a terrible king. Overall she’s a very collected individual and I think Black would take to her quite well

I don’t even know whether this meme is a thing anymore but anyway I did this.

What happened to the Olkari? The Robeast stopped attacking their planet when it got the cubes, and most of the escape ships made it out. So where did they go? Did they head for Earth? Did they set up base in a nearby system? But then why didn’t they call for help once established? Did the Robeast wipe them out as they were leaving the planet? What about Ryner? We didn’t see her die, and the Robeast was leaving. Where did she go? Did she stay and die with the planet, or did she get on another ship after the destruction was over? Where? Why? Whaaaat!?

Hi! Sorry I haven’t been doing much Voltron!Avatar stuff lately! I’m currently working on pillows to sell at a mini-con this Friday 🤪 as soon as it’s done, I’ll be able to draw more! ✨🌷✨ Here’s some quick doodles of what I think the aliens would look like

Sport Dance AU. The First Competition Preparations.

The design of the dress and Ryner’s human concept were offered by @adreamneverends.

When Katie agrees to take part in the competition as Takashi’s partner the new problem comes: she does not have a dress. Shiro offers to go to the Olkarion Boutique run by Miss Ryner. Garrison dancers are her regular customers so they have good discounts. Moreover, she rents dresses and these ones are not worse than the ones she makes and sells. 

“You didn’t have to waste your time accompanying me to the shop”, Katie says, a bit confused. “It’s a weekend and you must have more important things to do than looking at dresses. I can handle this myself, really”. 

Takashi smiles, tilting his head to the right. Katie follows his nod and sees a rather small shop with a sign “Olkarion Boutique”. It should be the place they are looking for. 

“Well, at first, it would be awful of me to send you somewhere which location you don’t know. Secondly, I have nothing special to do and thirdly... Oh, here it is! I think two reasons are more than enough”. 

“Gentleman as usual...” She can’t keep her smile back. It’s hard to be serious or moody beside such a bright and caring man and Katie lets herself relax. In addition, Shiro’s company is always pleasant as he truly knows a lot. “Is this the one?”

“Indeed. Don’t jump into conclusions: she shop might look tiny but it’s huge inside. Ryner says it’s a kind of symbolism: the real treasure has to be hidden”.

“Sounds like philosopher's words...”

“Ryner is a philosopher. And a thousand of other persons too, I suppose”. 

And Katie believes him after a few moments spent in the Boutique. Ryner notices them almost immediately and her official smile is replaced by a warm, friendly one. 

“Mister Takashi Shirogane, if my old eyes are not playing tricks with me?”

“Hello, Ryner”. Shiro’s voice is also full of sincere delight. “How are you doing?”

“Long time no see. Hm, the dresses are still in demand so everything is great. Have you finally come to have a cup of good tea or is it something special? And would you be so kind to introduce me to your companion?”

“Of course.This is Katherine Holt, one of my students. And a partner, to be exact”. 

“You’ve finally decided to move on and go back to dancing world? That’s what I hoped for, you are still too young to retire”. 

“No, no, not at all!” Shiro notices Katie bite her lower lip and hurries to make things clear. He does not want to embarrass his partner, he has already spent too much time and willpower to persuade her to at least dance. “We are just attending. It’s a kind of practise”. 

“Oh...” She looks at him, then at Katie and nods. Something in her gaze makes Shiro come up with the idea she does not believe his defensive speech. He himself wouldn’t mind this event being not just the event, that is right. But the tactful old lady prefers not to insist or interfere. “I see. But a dress is still needed. Please, miss Katherine, follow me, and you stay here until we’re ready!” She points at Shiro with her slender wrinkled finger in a threatening gesture. “Keep yourself busy with something. And no peeking, young man! A man shouldn’t see his partner’s first dress until the event, that’s a rule. It’s a bad luck, you know! Remember what happened to you then, huh?” 

“Oh please, how much time has passed and you still remember it? I just got nervous and tripped over Maggie’s dress”.

“And almost fell on her, she told me. So be wise this time and obey the rule”. 

“I haven’t heard about this custom before”. Katie says glancing at Ryner when they are alone. “Although it’s not my first event at all”. 

“It’s not well-known, miss, and sometimes everything goes great but it’s similar to weddings: might happen or not. I prefer avoiding troubles. So, this is your first event with this young man as a partner?”

“Yes”.  

“Good choice. I watched some championships he attended and he really is skillful. And handsome”. She winks at Katie and the girl feels a blush heating on her cheeks. “What size do you have, miss Katherine?”

“Oh... well... It depends. And, to be honest, I’m afraid almost all the dresses may be too big for me...” 

“This is not a problem at all! We can look through junior ones. Don’t worry, many of them may be considered as adult models so you won’t tell the difference, neither will others”.  

She has never seen so many dresses before. Neither has she ever tried so many dresses on before. Blue, pink, grey, violet ones... With plain colours and prints... But every time Katie goes out of the fitting room Ryner shakes her grey-haired head and says “Not yours” and something about the reason why. She already begins to hate her short figure because of all these wrong backs, shoulder lines and waist lines, but Ryner keeps bringing her a dress by dress every one of which looks perfect, to be honest. And when Katie is finally ready to give up and stop torturing the old lady Ryner suddenly hands another light-green poufy dress to her.

She sighs but takes it, returns to the fitting room and puts it on. 

And freezes when the mirror shows her the vision. 

The dress is shining and it seems to be made from clouds. The fabrics are light and soft, all the darts are in places and even the skirt needn’t being shortened. Katie remains silent, staring at her reflection and guessing is this really the same girl. She remembers Tiana from The Princess And the Frog movie. Her outfit reminds the froggy’s green wedding dress and she can bet the designer used it as a basis. Actually, this makes Katie feel pleasantly strange: she looks like a Disney princess and does not every girl in the world want to be a princess for at least one day? And it does not matter how old the girl is...

“Miss Katherine, do you need any help? Is it your size or should I look for something else?” She jumps and swallows, the spells run out. But the dress is still on her and she cannot deny it fits perfectly. 

“No, no. Everything is okay. I’m just... It’s so beautiful”. 

“Could you, please, go out so I would be able to have a look?”

Katie pulls the curtain away and appears in front of Ryner, her arms are kept tight to the body, the fingers are crumpling the soft green fabric. 

“This truly is the one”. Ryner smiles at her customer watching her turning her confused and purely happy gaze away. “This dress was designed to look similar to...”

“Tiana’s dress”, Katie mumbles and locks her eyes with Ryner’s. She feels like a child but the sense is more than warm and exciting. It is like she is 13 and has come for the first sport dance dress. She still remembers it. Blue satin one with a lovely red belt. “This is the girl from a Disney movie. Her wedding dress looked extremely similar to this one”. 

“Oh... I was about to say it represents a she-elf of nature but your association is right too. I once saw this cartoon but no one has pointed out the similarity yet”. Ryner glances at Katie again and comes closer to see whether the darts are okay. 

“The size is right. Can you move in it freely? Try to spin and do something. The dress shouldn’t bother you or press anywhere. If there is any lack of comfort, tell me and we’ll try to fix it or look for another option”. 

“No, no, I choose this one. It’s just perfect”. Katie shakes her head and looks at the huge floor mirror. She fails to notice Ryner lifting a brow and smirking. “How much?”

“Miss, miss, I have to ask you to check your senses carefully again. The clothes you dance in is very important. And I want my clients be satisfied with their choices completely”. 

“I’ve already decided. I’ll rent this one!”

Well, it is obvious this pretty little woman is very deceive if she has made up her mind to something. Ryner didn’t expect Takashi she knows to choose someone less bright and interesting. 

And when Katie comes back to return the dress Ryner notices her gaze is no longer shy or sad. She is shining and she holds her head high. The true princess even in jeans and with messy hair. 

And when this Katherine says she may need another dress later Ryner smirks: she knew that day was just the very beginning.

The team heads down to Olkarion, ready to see what needs helping with and to lend a robotic hand. Of course, Pidge has her concerns about going down as the Galra are the enemy to many and she is very obviously Galra.

Hi, Ryner! Also I see you guys gave Sam proper clothes and trim - he looks much, much better than before.
