category 18 event (thinking too hard about the lions again)
#their paladins either dead or turned evil. separated from each other and scattered across the cosmos.#do you think they got lonely??? just sitting and waiting for their new paladins to come????#do you think they could all feel red's fear when the galra captured her but without paladins couldnt do anything to help her????#i hc that the lions are all connected emotionally to each other and they communicate w each other the same way#they communicate w their paladins. which is to say through the mindlink and shared emotions in the mindscape#but after ten thousand years of being so so so far away do you think they stopped being able to sense each other???#of course they can tell that their brothers and sisters are there but their connection is muted like its behind a wall#they can feel each others' presence and maybe a twinge of shared emotion here and there but nothing more than that.#the connection theyve all shared for millions of years has grown weaker than ever and theyre so lonely.#and then maybe when the galra did capture red they could feel her panic and fear and anger and distress#but the connection was so muted by then that they were unable to see specifics. if she was ok. if she was in danger.#and man. just thinking about black having to deal with the fact that her pride is scattered and in danger#and there's NOTHING she can do to help them. they rely on her and look up to her but she's utterly helpless to help them.#with all this in mind its kinda poetic that the black lion can only be released from her hiding place w all the lions present tbh#because she's powerful. sure. but without her siblings she's just as helpless as anything else#IDK. IDK IF I THINK ABOUT THE LIONS TOO MUCH I START SPIRALING.#i know they were only sentient in the loosest terms in canon but FUCK ALL THAT YKW. THEYRE SENTIENT <3#winter speaks#voltron#lions
