after the events of star court it’s common for the Party to see steve walking around carrying robin in his arms. but instead of piggybacking like normal people, she’s against his front, chest to chest with her legs and arms clinging tightly so he can still use his arms. and they’ll go around doing normal everyday things like a two-legged three*-armed creature. if robin is eating something this gives her good access to share with steve while he stocks shelves or whatever. the one time a Party member asked why they don’t just piggyback instead the two of them gave the whole group looks like THEY were the weird ones for suggesting it, so that ended that discussion.
and after s4, the whole group is witness to a whole new ridiculous mass of limbs and heads as a certain metalhead decides it’s his job to cling to steve’s back. and steve now visibly starts to struggle under the weight (only a little tho), but always has on the happiest grin the Party has ever seen
*of course she still helps when she can, but one arm is always around his neck to keep her in place

character asks bc other anon was a coward: blade
HAJFTOVNWHYFAGDYSDNTJ
General opinion/How much I care about them: Ren Blade Yingxing my beloved beloathed depressed miserable angsty bastard aaaaaaa-
This man, oh my god. This edgy mess is somehow the second fastest blorbo to be coined as such in my blorbo-having history, and I think that alone says a lot. But even if not, he has his special little spot for being: 1) my first HSR fave, 2) my current main (the gameplay is ridiculously fun holy shit), and 3) the reason I downloaded the game at all (shoutout to Bronya, of course, but it was mainly Ren).
Also I really like the fact that he's genuinely batshit insane. An unapologetic menace to the galaxies. He can be so unhinged and evil sometimes, and that's a new flavor of fave in my collection. Did I mention the story doesn't try to redeem him at all? Because it's true! Extremely uncommon win on the hyv writers' part there; doubly so because they manage to balance this aspect with the subtle gap moe they love to give to all their stoic characters.
Yes. Ren is simultaneously edginess incarnate and a tired grandpa that sucks with words and doesn't know shit about technology. Oh and he keeps getting roped into Situations by his colleagues- and goes along with them all the time! The dude was literally asked to pose for a movie cover and he just. did that. No questions asked. Nothing.
I care about him a very normal amount. He's so neat and- oh my god I forgot to mention the aesthetic. Black/blue/red/gold is such a banger color scheme. He also has a spider lily motif and that looks very cool! And the pretty ribbon on the back of his coat is a 10/10 design choice. His only problem is that the game keeps forgetting to edit his silly beta design sneakers out of splash art, and that the washed out jeans clash hard with the coat. But otherwise? Perfection. I could (and did) stare at him for hours on end.
A ship I love: Kafblade is one of those pairs that you can read as romantic or platonic with equal efficacy and I love that for it. They're partners in crime! There's a great sense of trust and faith between them! They're each other's guardian and tether and the one who understands them best and they're such an awesome dynamic, good lord.
Honorable mention goes to jingren for the old man yaoi potential to take the relationship in a very (bitter)sweet or very sad way. There's something to be explored here and I wish canon could give it consideration someday.
A non-romantic relationship that I love: Stellaron Hunter agenda!!! They're so awesome individually and as a group, and the comedy is just lovely. You have Ren wrangling two terribly reckless women because in some way, by some miracle, he happens to be the braincell holder among the three. You have him trailing after Kafka on one of her shopping sprees with a whole bunch of bags and coats, you have him going to an arcade with Silver Wolf because she wanted to show him this brand new game she's been talking about nonstop for four days, and you have him in an impromptu shooting session with them both because they wanted to make silly movie covers and needed an extra actor.
They're one small hilarious family and I adore them so so much, you have no idea. Can't wait until Sam and Elio make an appearance in the story so I get more fuel for shenanigans.
The NOTP: None here sir, as long as the ship is normal it's fine by me.
My biggest headcanon about them: Ren is autistic and you will pry this hc from my cold, dead hands. He's stuck in his own head 80% of the time. He doesn't do conversation at all. Back when he was still Yingxing, he used to spend so much time at the forge when inspiration struck him, to the point of tuning out everything until his friends physically dragged him out to touch grass. He's an autistic nerd through and through, and even several thousand deaths can't take that from him.
An idea for a fanfiction I would like to write/read about them: One idea I've been curious about lately is what would happen in a roleswap scenario, where the Astral Express crew find Ren before the Stellaron Hunters do. He may not make for a great archivist, his state of mind may be less-than-stellar, but it's interesting to imagine the dynamics between him and the crew- and hey, who doesn't love taking sad guys out of situations for a change?
I'm filing this concept for later, just in case. Who knows? The writing ghost visits when I least expect it.
Something that makes me think of them: Everything these days The flute, the sound of wind blowing, red spider lilies, and -to the immense detriment of my composure in public- mentions of the word blade in any context ever. Why gee, thanks for permanently altering my brain chemistry.

Hc for the homeworld trio plz
oh man all three alright...also in case its not obvious I'm thinking like human versions for these just so I can get more creative
Jasper: huge unpleasent cis dyke energies. like she's obviously crazy hot and goes home with women often but her personality is so bad that she can't keep a girl for more than a month LOL. you wake up from a night of passion only to see a giant gadsden flag hanging on the wall that you didn't notice before and then you leave without saying anything. living embodiment of an ex girlfriend
Peridot: either transmasc or transfem but nonbinary either way lol. could be they/them they/she or they/he but there's a they thrown in no matter what. crazy baby butch energies look at her little bowtie. lots of girls like her but she's too autistic to notice. she's in her mid twenties and has never kissed anyone
Lapis: i can never tell if she's lesbian or bi but she is some flavor of liking women LOL. also huge she/they vibes. can't decide if she's transfem or not but I think that would be cool it really could go either way though. t4t lapidot is an epic concept...also I don't have a detailed mental image of her hypothetical love life compared to the other two but I think it would probably be the most normal out of the three of them.

mami tomoe for the character ask hehehe
First impression: The first time watching PMMM was ages ago and I didn't watch it all the way through then but one thing I do remember about that time was legitimately not believing Mami was dead. Like I thought the show was faking me out bc I didn't think they would kill off a character from the intro three eps in (it's important to know here that I didn't realize that PMMM was only 12 eps total; I thought there were more and Netflix just had the first season or smth. The only other anime I'd been into before that was BNHA and FMAB so I kind of thought all animes were long)
Impression now: All the PMMM characters are tragic in their own ways but in Mami's case what gets me is how she was just starting to open up at the time of her death. Most of the time she tries so hard to seem like the mature, responsible one who others can lean on, but in reality she's literally just a 9th grader whose life is in danger on a daily basis. She's so scared of burdening others but then she finally does admit to Madoka that she needs help, and then immediately gets fucking. chomped. The futility of it all messes with me
Favorite moment: Her confession to Madoka always and forever. The "I don't deserve [your admiration]; you should find a better role model" bit is soooo telling about her self esteem. And what's so ironic here is that Mami was very clearly afraid that admitting weakness to Madoka would make Madoka feel obligated to help her out as a magical girl even if she didn't want to (the fate Mami was already stuck with). But in opening up to Madoka is Mami's actually giving Madoka more autonomy, bc with more information Madoka can make a more informed choice about whether she wants to be a magical girl! The "refusing to accept help when you need it actually hurts the people you're trying to help" theme that's later prevalent with Sayaka is also very visible here. (On a very different note, my second fave Mami moment is her gunfight with Homura in Rebellion purely bc it was sick)
Idea for a story: I would say I want to see her interact more with Kyoko but I am aware that that literally happens at some point in the manga that I haven't read (set in one of Homuras other timelines iirc) so
Unpopular opinion: I feel like people underestimate Mami's importance on Sayaka's arc? Ik I've talked abt this before but it still stands. Sayaka not being there during aforementioned scene with Madoka and thus unquestionably believing Mami to be this virtuously selfless platonic ideal of a magical girl is soooo crucial. I think this combined with her survivor's guilt about Mami's death is a huge part of why Sayaka's Like That. IMHO Sayaka's way more like Mami than she thinks, it's just that neither of them are much like the idealized version of Mami that Sayaka thought was real (and also clearly had issues with guilt)
Favorite relationship: Sayaka but I've already talked about that so, Mami and Homura! I think I said to you once awhile back that what I find really tragic about them is that in another world without Madoka coming between the two they'd be friends, but they can't be here bc of their competing needs for companionship make them butt heads over her. And I don't remember if you ended up watching Rebellion so to say this in a way that avoids spoilers as much as possible, I feel like their portrayal there really confirms this interpretation. I wonder a lot how they interacted in early timelines when Homura wasn't so focused on solely Madoka
Favorite headcanon: If there is anything in canon that actually contradicts this ah well but I hc that she's not actually big on tea and has more just learned to tolerate it. Both bc it feels like it would be thematically fitting with her "wanting to appear mature even when it makes her miserable" thing and bc I'm a flavor of autistic wherein I don't like tea

some HC’s, I guess
-Drew was, and still is to a select few post-canon, the Mom Friend of the Secret Scientists.
-She is also not above insulting people in languages she knows they don’t understand.
     -This has backfired on occasion. And may or may not have been a means of accidentally teaching a certain child a swearword. She couldn’t bring herself to be mad at him for that one.
-Her full name is Andrea. No one calls her this, not even Doc.
    -The last people to regularly call her that were her parents.
    -Epsilon did when they first met, and got a black eye for his trouble.
-generally prefers tea but will take certain types of flavored coffee if the caffeine is absolutely needed.
~~~~~~~
-Doc knows he came out of Weird World with some degree of PTSD. He doesn’t like admitting it, even to Drew.
-while he’s generally pretty good at putting aside emotions in stressful situations, now and then that just means it’ll hit him all at once later.
(yeah i don’t have many for him tbh)
~~~~~~~
-Miranda gets very focused on her work. To the point of forgetting to do things like eat or sleep. This usually leads to her passing out somewhere in her lab, or occasionally during a meeting.
-Somewhat aware that she is bi but hasn’t really acknowledged it. She had, and still does have, a bit of a crush on Drew during college. It was one-sided, and never noticed.
-Bit of a perfectionist. Can be blamed on her parents pushing all the family expectations onto her instead of Abbey, though she actively does not want to acknowledge this.
-Major blood phobia as a result of Weird World. There’s also one cryptid out there that she would not react well to seeing again.
(guess who my favorite is?)
~~~~~~~
-Arthur is definitely some level of autistic.
-He has three guinea pigs, and their names are Dana, Monica, and Lilo.
-Aro-ace. The man just doesn’t compute those emotions.
~~~~~~~
-Paul is one of those people who just smiles when angry.
-He’s also the resident gay disaster of the Secret Scientists; he hasn��t actually told anyone but they all know.
-Easily gets overexcited when it comes to topics he’s interested in, but can also be a little dense about things sometimes.
~~~~~~~
-Doyle is an absolute adrenaline junkie. (may or may not be canon tbh)
-shockingly good with younger kids.
    -unless they’re crying. Then he’ll be trying to stay away from them.
-Very bi and unafraid to admit it.
-has killed people before, but only ever in self-defense or by accident.
-Can fall asleep anywhere, but is also a very light sleeper.
~~~~~~~
-Zak was an incredibly quiet baby. To the point of being a little concerning.
-He was also born at least a month early, mostly in part because of the stress that came out of the raid on Weird World. It’s part of why Drew’s so overprotective of him.
-This kid can sing. He doesn’t really want anyone knowing this, but Fisk does and so do his parents (though he doesn’t know that those two know)
-There are bits and pieces of the old Kur left in his subconscious, but it’s really no more than vague memories and a few places feeling familiar despite Zak never having been there himself.
    -part of the reason he was so quiet when little was because what remained of Kur just didn’t know how to process the situation.

Trans Headcanons for Team Voltron
A few people expressed interest, so here we go! I was mostly musing on some plot ideas for a fic, and then realized that I just... really like the fact that I have enough trans headcanons to actually be able to play around with who feels which way about the concept of gender, body dysphoria, and presentation, since IRL not all trans people have the same approach to these things. Most of this is from a conversation with @firebirdeternal​, my usual beta.
Some things to keep in mind: I am not trans, I just like diverse headcanons. @firebirdeternal​ is nb. I don’t always headcanon a character the same way from one universe to the next. I will almost always headcanon Pidge, Hunk, and Coran as trans. The others more just... happen as I write. Sometimes they are, sometimes they aren’t, depending on which fic it is and what my brain decided was a good idea.
Anyway, I’m sticking this under a Read More because Lance, Matt, and Keith all have multiple paragraphs for their sections and the post got... long.
Hunk is uncomfortable with sexual situations and anything below the belt, but strangely ambivalent about his chest. He’s fine going around without binder so long as he’s wearing a shirt, but super unwilling to do anything involving taking off his pants unless he’s either completely alone or in a medical situation where the medical professional in question doesn’t say cissexist things or try to talk about his genitalia for no reason. On HRT by the time he’s at the Garrison and looking into surgical options to figure out what he’s most comfortable with, but hasn’t actually gotten any yet.
Pidge doesn't super mind being mistaken for a boy, and frequently wears boyish clothes, but there's a lot of gender euphoria for her in stuff like sundresses and long hair. She likes being a girl, but isn’t super bothered by people thinking she’s a dude so long as it really is just a mistake (or her being undercover), and they correct themselves afterwards. She’s also interested in transitioning hormonally and with surgery, and was on puberty blockers before Voltron happened. (Altean medical technology means a safe and nearly painless vaginoplasty, breast prostheses, etc.  and Pidge has no hangups at that point.)
Coran transitioned literally centuries ago and is comfortable in his own body, but only due to the fact that Altean surgeries meant he could definitely get the body he WANTED when he wanted it. He had some fairly strong dysphoria before that. He’s pretty solidly a dude though, and hasn’t had the kind of internal debates that Pidge and Lance get since he was very, very young.
Lance's relationship with gender is kind of tenuous. He settled on identifying as a dude a few years ago, but actually likes his vagina and wants a pregnancy at some point (because Lance loves the idea of having kids and is down with being the one to carry them), and has admitted to considering identifying as nb because he still sometimes likes the IDEA of dressing up and being viewed as a woman for a night? He’s a dude. He identifies as a boy/man (he’s at the age where either word works and it doesn’t really matter), but. You know. He’s got some interests that people would consider feminine and he still sometimes looks at women and goes “Huh, I wouldn’t mind looking like that for a day”
firebirdeternal See, I've kind of headcanoned Lance as being very fluid except for one thing, he really doesn't like chest based intimacy with himself. Like that's the one thing that does actually bother him, and it isn't a rational thing for him.
Lance's gender is a complicated thing that he's mostly just given up on trying to untangle. He tells people he's a dude and stays fairly solid on that unless he super trusts someone, because a lot of people have tried to dictate his gender FOR him when he explains the details. He doesn’t actually think it’s that big of a deal? Hell, even when he considers “would it make more sense to identify as genderfluid or bigender or something,” it’s usually with about the same level of seriousness as picking out which color boxers he wants to put on after a shower, or what flavor his Frappuccino of the day is going to be, because he’s comfortable in his own skin at this point and as far as he’s concerned, that’s all that matters?
It’s just that other people keep trying to tell him that it’s a big deal and that is Very Tiring.
firebirdeternal I like that a lot. Sticking to the label you know people will at least SEE rather than get into the complexities of how you really feel, at least with people you don't trust yet.
Since I mentioned it for the others: he got top surgery but isn’t interested in anything else.
Relevant:  I know a trans guy who occasionally dresses in drag (mostly 1700s dresses because he's a history nerd, or...well, some old thing like that), and I like to think that Lance, even as a trans dude, would probably still dress in drag sometimes, because clothing isn't inherently gendered (fuck you, Victorians) and also GLITTER IS FUN AND SO IS DANCING and anyway, Lance would definitely still be down for crossplay and RuPaul’s Drag Race levels of Extra and wearing dresses even when he’s firmly sure that he’s a dude because it’s just a pretty outfit.
Keith's dysphoria kind of... oscillates? I don't headcanon him as trans often, but when I do I usually headcanon him as an "out of sight, out of mind" person. If he's wearing a binder and pants, then he doesn't have to think about it. If he isn't, then it's really a flip of the coin.
firebirdeternalyeah, he seems very much like: The less he has to think about it the happier he is. I can honestly see a scene where Keith has a mild breakdown because he has to get a new binder and it gives him Bad Sensory Issues because of something different about the fabric.
(NOTE: Both firebirdeternal and I headcanon Keith as autistic, since...well. There’s evidence for it in canon, and we like to project.)
This affects his approach to sex. If he's having a high dysphoria day, then he doesn't really want to be on the receiving end of anything? He's perfectly happy pleasuring his partner most of the time, but not... actually touching himself or being touched Like That. On the other hand, sometimes the dysphoria is barely there and anything goes. Definitely interested in HRT but not super comfortable with the idea of any kind of surgery, even with Altean medical tech.
firebirdeternal Yeah, up and down days, basically. I just... I love the trans Coran headcanon so much, especially when paired with any number of trans paladin ones, because I can just see him being such a good Space Dad to the kids. Like, even with the differences in Culture he'd be So There for them.
I only recently started playing around with trans Matt headcanons, and I think he's kind of similar to Pidge in that he's mostly about the gender EUphoria, and he got top surgery before Kerberos and doesn't really care about below the belt. I think the best way to put it for Matt is that he's trans but ranks that fact lower on his list of Important Identities than the others (save for Lance) do.
firebirdeternal He likes feeling like a Cool Guy Anime Protagonist honestly.
He's trans, and open about it, but it's not a thing he really thinks warrants much attention or discussion or even self-reflection? He'd rather play video games and gush over his little sister's coding.
EXCEPT FOR THE PUNS.
Matt is all about the queer jokes.
firebirdeternal Oh god he loves them. HC that Matt came out of the closet at like 12 with a joke because the opening his mom gave him was TOO GOOD to be ignored, and after a split second his mom and dad were just giggling up a storm and hugging him. Pidge too.
Colleen already had suspicions but her first reaction was a snort and a facepalm. "So THAT'S how you've chosen to come out."
firebirdeternal All this followed by GRATUITOUS AMOUNTS OF REASSURANCE. Pidge is like "Matt come out again, mom baked brownies for like three weeks the last time you did"
"I already told her I was bi and trans, there's nothing LEFT." 
(I've also played around with Matt being intersex but I'm not comfortable delving much deeper into that, especially on a public platform, until I've done some more research on intersex representation and common issues so I know I’m not doing anything offensive with the headcanon.)

Some quick HCs for #omgcpwomenfest
(Okay, maybe not so quick. Curse you, inspiration!)
Alicia Zimmermann is autistic af. Samwell is one of her special interests. She flaps her hands when she gets excited.
George is also autistic af. You remember that “autistic otp aus” someone wrote a while ago? With the “you asked me to talk about my special interest and the longer i talked the more excited you got and now it’s your special interest too. yessssss” bullet point? Graduation. That’s all.
Lardo is autistic as well (lol this is practically canon lbr). Also, you know how Ngozi said none of Lardo, Nursey, and Parse were actually chill? The reason Lardo looks chill is because she her panic just … doesn’t actually show. Like, this one time she was in class painting and one of the other students accidentally dumped an entire can of Diet Pepsi on her canvas, and she just looked at it for about five seconds before working the brown splash into her painting … and everyone else was like “SHE IS A GOD” while Lardo was like “shit shit shit maYBE THIS WILL WORK SHIT SHIT” inside.
Prof. Alice Atley, Bitty’s advisor, is actually totally allistic. (C-c-c-combo breaker!) She’s also just this really warm, lovely person. Like if you are a trans lady waiting for a bathroom stall and lowkey panicking about someone looking at you and giving you a hard time? And Alice is in line behind you? She will strike up a conversation about the weather or something and you will just be like “why do I feel welcome and comfortable here is this supposed to be possible holy cow”. She might be magic.
Suzanne Bittle is incredibly kind, caring, loving, and also utterly badass when the moment calls for it? Like, she forced her high school to implement a comprehensive sex ed course when she was fourteen, in the face of half an entire church coming out supporting abstinence-only, by organizing the whole student body in support. Her yearbook caption said “Most Likely to Conquer World, And Then Bake It Pies”.
Caitlin Farmer is, like, seriously one of the best autistic pals you can have. Like, 90% of the time that everyone thinks that Chowder and Farmer have gone upstairs to have sex, they’re just escaping the overstimulating atmosphere.
(Caitlin is also super good at making people feel less anxious? Like, April was panicking once about losing her scholarship after she overpassed and gave up the game point after shanking two balls earlier, and Caitlin spent like an hour talking about how good her digs were until she calmed down.)
Speaking of April: she and March? Totally BPD buds. April didn’t actually know before she got to Samwell, but after a year of being March’s best friend and, like, reblogging Tumblr posts back and forth with Caitlin, she’s prrrrrretty sure of her self-diagnosis. They keep each other on a level keel, though.
And March totally knows that Holster has it bad for Ransom and they’re totally going to live together forever as soon as Ransom gets his head out of his ass, and it’s fine. Really. She and Ransom can just be a fling, it’ll be fine, and Holster really cares about the doof - they’ll be good for each other. And she already has a flavor of ice cream picked out and a pint of it in the freezer to split with April after she inevitably gets dumped.
(The day Ransom gets the three of them together to talk about maybe becoming a triad is officially the most confusing day of her LIFE. It’s two months after that before she’s convinced enough that their relationship will work to give the ice cream to Dex.)
Camilla Collins is actually the most pan ace person ever. She is constantly surrounded by gorgeous people she wants to touch but also not touch. It’s a serious problem.
