#because im talking about voltron

[evi-anxiety]

POV: You're a soldier fighting a war that isn't yours. You quite literally sleep on the battlefield, and you look into space with the hope that one of those stars is your very distant Sun. You might die tomorrow, and you haven't even graduated school yet. But it doesn't matter, because there are thousands of others who perished before learning their own name, and now you must make up for the guilt of even wanting to go home in the first place.

when adam met 11yo keith he immediately knew that keith was gay and was like i have GOT to support this kid!! (runs into traffic) meanwhile shiro spent years operating under the assumption that keith had like a gender thing going on

[ID: a drawing in the Voltron Gravity Falls au, where Pidge and Matt take the place of Dipper and Mabel, drawn in approximately the style of Gravity Falls. The drawing is of Pidge and Matt in the backseat of a car. The seats are strewn with scribbled-on papers, their luggage, and fast food trash. Pidge is turned around in her seat and looking out the back of the car, while Matt has his foot on the headrest of the seat in front of him and playing a handheld video game. Sam's head is slightly visible in the corner of the foreground. End ID.]

an illustrated contribution to the gravity falls au: before the beginning, Pidge and Matt are on a trip to go stay with their "uncle" (a friend of their parents') Coran for the summer, because their parents are going alien hunting and also Pidge needs to leave the house more. With a setup like this, I'm sure Sam and Colleen are going to be the ones who encounter the most aliens!

every day i kick a rock and bash my head into the wall because i'll never get to go on a big space adventure and become tightly close-knit with my new found family up there <//3

[ofc-vi-writes-too]

In honor of me being black and loving being black and thinking everyone should love black people, here are a list of characters I believe love black women with everny bone in their bodies:

• Starting off strong: Steve Rogers. I can’t explain it but trust me please. If you get it you get it if you dont you dont.

• Jason todd. Like c’mon. Look at him. Tell me he doesn’t want to wake up next to a brownskin queen every morning. Look me in my eyes.

• MCU Bucky Barnes. I love to say it, Wakanda changed him. Stepping foot in that country was like seeing the light for the first time. He was basically reborn. I said it before and I’ll say it again. Look at how he looked at Sarah. SAME LITERALLY EXPLICITLY TOLD HIM NIT TO FLIRT WITH HER BEFORE THEY EVEN GOT THERE.

• Gojo, Itadori, nanami, and Toji from JJK. i dont think i need to eloborate here.

• Haley from Stardew Valley. She is not only a fellow girl kisser, but she would genuinely have a real tweak if the farmer was a black woman. Haley needs a 6 ft nonchalant butch dreadhead in her life it would literally solve all her provlems. She has written in her diary about this, and Alex hasnt heard the end of it.

• Fear from Inside out. Just believe me, please.

• This might be controversial but Squidward.

• Bruce Wayne. Literally thinks about eating drywall every time Selina Kyle is even mentioned. “Alfred why hasn’t God hand delivered me what i CRAVE and what i NEED *loud dramatic sigh*” hes also accidentally a perpatrator of hard wig soft life lmao. He donates ridiculous sums of money to black charities like 100 black men, and the black youth helpline. He’s an advocate for his girl’s community and we love to see it.

• Barry Allen. also thinks about eating drywall whenever he sees Iris. She’s just so sigh. And he loves her so much and he’s so glad that he married that beautiful amazing strong and powerful woman.

• Ellanore Shellstrop. After she died she had real clarity about the truths of the universe. If soulmates didnt really exist then wtf were her and Chidi im so deadass.

• Woody from Toy Story. Please do not at me. I will not be taking questions comments or concerns on that one. And for anyone saying “but what about bo peep ?!” Shes albino. Look at those 3B curls and tell me to my face that I’m lying. I dare you.

• lightning Mcqueen. Hear me out here! In universe there have to be like… black cars. He’s def the type to go for a UK baddie ykwim.

————————————————————————

a/n: guys please im just being silly they are fictional characters please dont argue about how much these FAKE characters like black people 😞. also if you try and argue i feel like that makes you a liiiiiiiittle bit racist but like thats a convo for another time. Anyway, sorry to all my sistas out there who’s fav character I forgot. Ur probably right and they probably do belong on this list, I just might have forgotten they exist! Dont be scared to comment them tho. I need to know what yall think too.

[emero0]

If I had a nickel for every time my favorite character/kin played the piano, I’d have 3 nickels

If I had one for every time they were also blond, over confident, but still genuine at heart - I’d have 3 1/2 (this makes sense trust me)

Thanks 🌻

thank you so much, sunflower anon! i love little games like these!!

As far as any listings go, there is generally no particular order in which I rank them. Here you go!

(And I know you didn’t say I could list them, but I considered games to be a viable category for me to choose from. And, note that these are not what I think are, necessarily, the most well-written things of all time. These are just my favorite. Vastly different concepts.)

Top 3 Favorite Female Characters -> Kugisaki Nobara [Jujutsu Kaisen], Nina Zenik [Grishaverse], Yosano Akiko [Bungou Stray Dogs]

Top 3 Favorite Male Characters -> Robbie White | Axe Boy [Identity V], Oikawa Tooru [Haikyuu], Percy Jackson [Percy Jackson and the Olympians]

Top 3 Favorite Media -> A Silent Voice (Movie), Merlin (TV Show), Grishaverse (Book Series)

Media You Are Currently Enjoying -> I am on Season 3 of Kitchen Nightmares.

Media That Exceeded All Your Expectations -> The A Quiet Place movie franchise. Cannot believe how fantastic those movies are. And it’s impressive that it exceeded my expectations, because I went in with high expectations already.

Top 3 Unpopular Media You Really Love -> Taking “unpopular” to mean underrated/not well-known; Child of Light (Video Game), School - Live! (Anime), The Unlisted (TV Show).

Favorite Romance -> When I Awake (Fanfiction). I don't give a flying FART that this isn't it's "own work" or whatever. I HAVEN'T CONSUMED A BETTER ROMANCE THAN THIS FANFIC.

Favorite Action -> Moon Knight (TV Show).

Favorite Fantasy -> Merlin (TV Show).

Favorite Sci-Fi -> A Quiet Place (Movie Franchise).

Favorite Drama -> A Silent Voice (Movie). The reason why I have this listed here, instead of under romance, is because I believe the movie - as opposed to manga - has a far stronger focus on the drama genre rather than the romance genre.

Favorite Comedy -> The Disastrous Life of Saiki K. (Anime). Honestly, this is my weakest category. I love a good laugh, always, but I read comedy fanfiction and don't really watch/read comedy in any other media format. Because the funny people in this world are not producers en masse in exec rooms, but 14-year-olds on Archive of Our Own. Sorry. I don't make the rules.

Top 3 Favorite Movies -> A Silent Voice, A Quiet Place, A Quiet Place: Part II. I seem to have a running theme…

Next In Your Watchlist -> A Quiet Place: Day One (Movie).

Next In Your Readlist -> This Is How You Lose the Time War by Amal El-Mohtar & Max Gladstone (Book).

Top 3 Favorite Antagonists -> Akutagawa Ryuunosuke [Bungou Stray Dogs], Kuro [Ori and the Blind Forest], Oikawa Tooru [Haikyuu]. I find it very humiliating that the normal, high school teenage boy somehow managed to make it on my list of favorites in this ask three whole times. But he is an antagonist and honestly very well-written one at that. I will die on this hill.

Top 3 Favorite Ships -> Klance [Keith/Lance; Voltron: Legendary Defender], Percabeth [Percy Jackson/Annabeth Chase; Percy Jackson and the Olympians], IwaOi [Iwaizumi Hajime/Oikawa Tooru; Haikyuu]

[juhbebbie]

I swear the only thing that makes me click away from a fic faster than evil jake lockley is when the author decides to let us know he speaks Spanish by throwing in one (1) word in Spanish in the middle of an English sentence, and not because he forgot the word in English but just because how else would we POSSIBLY be able to know he was a Spanish speaker, and its the most awkward and forced thing ever

[sockdooe]

I’m not only shaking so much with energy but tumblr just crashed on me for all the shiros I’m rebooting in record speed

[homebecomesthehighway]

you know, maybe the shitty shows we watch really were the friends we made along the way

I've been in some of the most toxic fandoms full of little freaks and weirdos, but I still always come back because I love listening to people talk about things they love with all their heart. like, I know the things I'm watching are all "bad" things to like, and I know they're problematic and toxic and full of shitty manipulative people that only wanted my money and attention. but I'm never going to forget how I felt loving those things, and the people that loved those things with me. and I will always remember crying and laughing and feeling boundless joy, and I'll remember the theory posts and fanart and stories and the discourse so much more than the actual media because it is the purest feeling to love things together

[chipper-smol]

QUESTION what are some things you’d recommend about isat? I’ve been thinking about maybe getting it but I don’t know much about the gameplay and I’ve gotten spoilers for it just from seeing posts on here but it seems interesting!

do you like amazing quality of life measures that make playing games fun instead of a grinding slog? ISAT does this and more. Because its a time loop rpg, its easy to think that gameplay will become repetitive and annoying, but there are in game mechanics that prevent this

ITS A TIME LOOP GAME AWARE THAT ITS A TIME LOOP GAME SO IT FOCUSES ON THINGS BEING FUN AND ENGAGING

do you like object heads who serve cunt?

(also you can make fake dialogue screenshots, gifts, and more thanks to kongkrog)

are you tired of token gays being shoved in your face while at the same time being barely present at all, like Disney's FIRST GAY [insert extra here] and Voltron making Shiro gay at the last second, for kudo points? ISAT's got your back by NOT doing that. It focuses on the story first but makes time for the characters to have their moments.

speaking of character moments, this game has FANTASTIC chemistry between all of the characters. It's refreshing to follow the story of a friend group and actually be able to believe they're friends by how they talk and act with eachother.

Also the things i've reblogged are unfortunately from a small portion of the game. theres SO MUCH

It has more words than all of Lord of the Rings. This is not a short game (unless you play it straight for 3 days without breaks)

canonically there's no britain

idk theres just... so much... good stuff...

it's a game i'd come back to. repeatedly. It's not the sort of game where you play it once and go "huh that was neat!" and shelve it because you did everything in it. It's dghmghmdgdm its good m sorry my brai n is getting tired im definitely missing stuff but i've been sent so many asks of people blaming me for getting them to buy ISAT so maybe you could become another?

Keith walking into the holding cell greeting all the regulars by name while Lance is sobbing lamenting that his life is over and his future is ruined (they were like. Trespassing or some shit he’s going to be fine)

lance: (actively dry heaving in the corner, on the verge of a panic attack as he imagines having a permanent record)(actually what does a permanent record even look like?)(omg is he going to have to go to COURT? like in JUDGE JUDY?)

keith: remy, this is lance. lance, this is remy, she’s my favorite alcoholic :)

fic rec friday 58

hello and welcome to fic rec friday! where, on friday, i rec five of my favourite fics.

The Value of a Moment by @a-fools-errand

When Lance’s previously obsolete skills in language suddenly become very useful, he finds himself wondering why aliens can’t account for the fact that humans, particularly him, need sleep and would prefer linear timelines. (Or: an Arrival AU because I love that movie)

yall OBSESSED does not begin to cover it. i have never read a fic where lance was so goddamn cool. and in like. the insanest of ways?? like of course lance is a polyglot but THIS....this is a whole new level. i havent even finished it fully yet but like god this thing is so fucking cool. if ur looking for a longfic stop looking

2. Rest Stop by @flaming-potato-arsonarson

Lance wasn't like the rest of the world. And he had never had a loving mother tell him it made him stronger for it. So he told himself, gathering up his courage and grit to face a world of winged humanity, when he, in fact, has no wings and turns into a mermaid instead. A world that wants him to die. So he'd keep this secret like a knife in his boot, a sharp weapon until he died on his own terms. Not because of who he was. Except, Team Voltron isn't so sure why Lance is all rough edges and sharp points about showing off his wings. Or acting like a member of the Flock in general. It's clear he cares for them, but he's never shown an intimate part of him. Until he has to.

oh god this has gotta be one of my CLASSIC fics. read it a few dozen times. i read it right when it came out, six ish years ago (goddamn), i can remember curling up in my old bunk bad and eating this up as the hours ticked by. i was HOOKED. my jaw was dropped my eyes were glued. could not get enough. if youre looking for mermaid lance with a twist....brother this is it

3. Looking for Rain by @thewriter2

Like most things, it starts with the little things: his smile, his confidence, his talent. Eventually, all these little things add up to one big thing that threatens to crash over them like a heavy rain. But, maybe that wouldn't be a bad thing. Maybe something beautiful would come from it. A 5+1 (really a 10+1) of Lance and Keith falling in love.

oh god guys..... @thewriter2 knows how to fucking haunt you. if a 10+1 (!!) isnt enough for you, i want you to know this line has been echoing in my head since i first read: "He looks at you like you’re a storm and he’s a desert desperate to drown." UM??? EXCUSE ME???? SIMILE OF ALL TIME ACTUALLY???? keith being so so visibly obviously in love with lance is my actual roman empire shit never leaves my mind

4. Astronauts by @thewriter2

When they entered the Blue Lion, Keith was Lance’s rival--the person Lance was working so hard to surpass. But slowly, Lance found himself thinking of Keith less as a rival and more as something close to a friend. So of course, Lance’s traitor of a heart decided that it would be Lance’s kind of friend that it would fall in love with.

tags to sell you: "keith is a dork but lance loves him anyway" (dorky keith my beloved), "hunk is an a+ friend" (yes he is), "lance is a lovesick fool" (yeah), and "allura is older sister goals" yes yes YES you get it. and like....while keith pov is my favourite to write by far, lances pov as he realises he is in love....that will always hold such a special special place in my heart

5. his own worth by frogsterz

In the middle of the conversation, Lance stops talking and no one notices. It’s not like he had been leading the conversation, for he hadn’t been, but somehow the fact that his lack of input or opinion isn’t noticed tightens the grip loneliness has on his heart. He looks down at his food, his face burning, his throat tightening up.

now usually anything but team as family isnt my deal. im not big on classic langst. but keith as a knight in shining armour.....what can i say i am weak willed. deeply. also " It’s what made it worse. I miss home and I miss being held and the rain, and I loved you. I thought you hated me." got me so bad got me WEAK like i have never recovered from that line and i doubt i ever will

that’s it for today!! i’ll see y’all back next friday for the next fic rec post!!!

[scattered-winter]

hey! hope you're doing good! if you don't mind me asking, what made you want to start the voltron rewrite?

I absolutely don't mind u asking!!!!!! will always ramble abt shit here on scattered winter dot com

its....kind of a long story. see I was caught up in the voltron hype a few years ago, and was obsessed with it from day one. I feel fairly confident in saying that it was my first fandom-related hyperfixation that lasted for quite a long period of time. I had mutuals and friends, and wrote fic and generally just participated in fandom and had a BLAST despite the source material being. less than stellar. but well the voltron fandom is notorious for being absolutely batshit (derogatory) and eventually the negativity from the fandom kind of drove me out (it was also just bitterness and anger on my part from the way the show ended because man.) but regardless the voltron hyperfixation went dormant for a really long time as I moved onto other things. but the concept kinda stayed with me (because let's be real its an AWESOME concept with sooo much cool worldbuilding potential that was never tapped into) and I played with the idea of an all-oc cast with my own story as the years went by, but never really went farther than daydreaming and making picrews lmao. but in the last few months the voltron hyperfixation has been flaring up as I've started rereading some of my fav fics and remembering why I liked this show in the first place, negativity and disappointment aside. and voltron is the perfect combination of worldbuilding potential, fascinating characters, and stupid fucking ass writing decisions that fuel me with enough spite to just write my own version. I've played with the idea of a voltron rewrite for a long time as I've thought about the characters more and what I would have done with them and the worldbuilding if I were in charge, but I didn't really actually start thinking about it seriously until I started rewatching the first season and remembered all the REALLY cool stuff it had. so long story short, now that most of the negative people have left the fandom, and now that I've had time to be in a better mindset abt the show, I'm doing this rewrite both because I'm frustrated by the dumb directions the source material went, and because I genuinely love the source material. at least, the core of it. AND as a bonus I'm genuinely having sooo much fun thinking about and planning the rewrite !!!! every single character got absolutely butchered after s2 and I want sooo badly to do them justice, because I love them all so much and they're all really close to my heart and I'm literally just having the time of my life out here <3 I don't even really mind that the fandom is practically dead nowadays and so my rewrite probably won't get that much attention because 1) I have soo many friends and bestiemutuals enabling me and cheering me on 2) I'm GENUINELY having so much fun. like it's been sooooo long since I've been this motivated and inspired and excited for a writing project and it's an amazing feeling to have

[bonbon-acide]

FTM Keith transitioning before he entered the garrison ( mainly Klance content)

Ftm Keith meeting Lance before entering the garrison in like a advanced/prep class. Even if hes still known as the emo kid, Lance star having a crush on him but never really talk to him bc Keith as a killer/dont bother me attitude that intimidate Lance.

Ftm Keith entering in his first year in the garrison, he finally started transitioning. Shiro and Adam are higly supportive of him, making sure the garrison use his proper name and gender and that everything is made so he doesn't feel like a burden or uncomfortable of being outed

Ftm Keith entering the garrison fully changed and more confident then before. Lance is in his class and hate him, doesn't understand why this bratty fucking kid is in his class and not the cute talented girl from last year. Start holding a gruge against Keith and Keith thinks Lance hates him because he's just transphobic or something like that

Ftm Keith start to kinda gets into verbal fight with Lance bc he's sad that the boy he liked is just an asshole. Hunk is the only one who realized Keith is the emo girl from prep class and also the only one Keith talks to bc he's really understanding and didn't say anything to anyone about his transition

Ftm Keith dropping out after the Kerberos accident. He reunites with Lance and Hunk when they finds Shiro and etc. Keith is fully transitioned, the man as we know it today and Lance gets a bit mad that his rival is hot

Ftm Keith joining Voltron with everyone, still is a bit uncomfortable that Lance is here bc he still thinks Lance doesnt like him bc he's trans. Talk about this to Shiro who says that he should maybe break the ice with Lance over that subject because they need to work together to save the universe

Ftm Keith doesn't really want to have this conversation but know its too important to just ignore this. Goes to talk to Lance about his transphobia

"If you have something against me, just tell me rather than be petty about it"

"Im not being petty I just don't understand why they accepted YOU into the garrison."

"Well if you have a problem about my gender , deal with it, its none of your business"

"What are you talking about? Your gender? I just think you're a prick"

Ftm Keith is as utterely confused as Lance, tells him that if he's not transphobic than what doesn't he like about him. Lance tells him that first, he thinks is annoying and second, that he's still mad that he took the place of the cute emo girl from prep class

Ftm Keith realizes Lance is not transphobic hes just an idiot and also realizes that Lance liked him back. Keith explains that he is that girl from prep class but Lance has some trouble understanding the concept of transitioning especially how the cute emo girl became his hot and sexy manly rival.

Ftm Keith taking a long time explaning everything to Lance so he really does understand. After that things get awkard bc they're still deeply in love with each other but Lance has to go through realising he's bi and Keith questions himself if Lance might be interested in him as a man

-

Would be interested into writing more about trans keith, tell me if you want some smut headcanon
