they're the friends ever to me

So it's been a while since I took the effort to not just sketch something, but to line and color it. But holy fuck, Hazbin Hotel has me by the balls, especially these two.

On one hand, I want Husk and Angel Dust to have a tender romantic moment where they confess and kiss.

On the other hand, it'd be hilarious if the ship kept being a really slow burn until, near the season finale, someone opened the door on them and they're just going at it like rabbits.

when we ran away together

[year-of-the-lion]

Starting on season 2 is jogging my memory a bit regarding the whole "Keith's hunt for answers" fiasco. Also still wildly off-putting to be reminded of how little the Paladins really understood the war they were fighting— again, kids' show, but it's an interesting area for depth to be added in fic.

I feel it does show their youth, that they just take on the narrative they're told by the ones they trust and don't really care to challenge it— except Shiro at first, and then Keith, for their own reasons.

This moment when Keith's unwrapping his knife is another one of those that really makes you think. Obviously, you see he's starting to question where it came from, where he came from, but I would imagine he already knows the answer to that question, even if he won't admit it to himself, and the rest of his search is about coming to terms with that and trying to figure out the how.

(It's also just a beautiful scene— I especially like how he has the main light in his room turned off. Logically there's nothing that turning the light off will do to keep this secret contained, but don't secrets feel easier to face when the shadows make the world around you smaller?)

It really makes me wish we had seen even just a bit more of Keith's heritage being explored— Shiro's reaction especially, though I'd love to have been a fly on that wall when he told the rest of the team. Or maybe a slightly better payoff to the two seasons worth of ingrained hatred of the galra that we see.

Oh well. Plot holes are where we store our headcanons, and I'm already looking forward to touching on these in fic.

my new favourite genre of guys is when they're cute but only in deeply neurodivergent ways.

On Lance and Keith, and the water/fire and sun/moon dynamics

Saw a post talking about how Lance and Keith are actually more like the other's element and is a really interesting but I found myself disagreeing though I didn't want to argue in OPs post.

I remember there was a part that said that Keith had to mold himself for survival, and, for what I remember, Keith very much does NOT do that.

Someone who molds himself to fit better would have gone into the Garrison to become a model of a perfect cadet, instead Keith is rebellious, and is not afraid of confrontation. He challenges Iverson and fights James and doesn't care if he makes an enemy out of the rest of the other cadets. They don't like it? sucks to suck because he is that good and he knows he is good.

In that same Garrison flashback, Lance actually tells Keith that if Keith keeps messing around he will be stuck as a cargo pilot, Lance tries to follow instructions, molds himself to be a good cadet because that's what is expected for him to be a fighter pilot, only that, things don't go that way, Keith is the one becoming a fighter pilot instead.

Even in his role as Black Paladin, Keith doesn't mold himself as much as he grows into it, like a flame growing to consume space.

Keith is a very straight forward guy, and rarely if ever, tries to hide his feelings, he is very sincere in what he does and means and he does things because he thinks is the best for everyone.

Take leaving the team for the Blades, while I do think he also did it so Lance didn't have to feel left out, I think he also did it so he could go and find more about his origins and himself, making what he thought was the best decision for both the team and himself.

What i'm trying to say is that t I never got the impression that Keith was afraid of showing himself. Just like a fire that doesn't change itself to fit in one place. He can be abrasive and powerful and hurtful like a wildfire and can also be warm and comforting and protective from the harsh circumstances like a fireplace. The presentation is the same, he just needed to learn to channel it better.

And that's why I think Lance had a bone to pick with him, or at least one of the reasons.

The previous description fits Lance to a tee, he can be downright mean and bitchy when he wants but also will give you friendly words and comfort when needed. Just like water can be overpowering and traitorous like the ocean while also bringing life and cleansing.

The thing is that while Keith didn't feel the need to mold for others, Lance does it with a lot of ease.

Being either a friendly welcoming face for the aliens they encounter, an emotional support for his team, a goodball to lift spirits for his friends, or a right hand man to two different leaders.

There is a reason he was usually referred as a jack of all trades just like Blue, not the tankiest or the fastest but it will be hard to find a place he won't be able to fill.

That's also while I support the sun Keith/moon Lance dynamic.

No matter how emo or mysterious he is, Keith shines bright not caring who may end up burning on his path, he is powerful and brilliant and good luck trying to ignore that. He burns but knowing he exists gives you hope for a new day. "He is the future" just like Lance said.

While Lance is the moon, who is always the same but will take on different faces depending the situation, the fact that you can stare directly at him doesn't mean he is letting you see the full picture. He shines in the dark offering guide in hard times but also caring for his team from afar as the resident sniper. Nurturing and kind, always tied to the waters and Earth.

They are still very similar, that's why they are a duo but I still think Keith at his core is fire just like Lance's is water.

And also to spread the Sun Keith/Moon Lance agenda.
