Oh my god, they were there too!

I can't tell if I knew about this but I forgot, or if I've never seen it, since my surprise is real (but it's strange, how could I have missed it?!)

Oh well, it doesn't matter. I'm happy to have discovered again? this gem!

SHIRO'S APPROACH TO GRIEF

As season 7 moves forward, Shiro is now adjusting to being home. Earth definitely isn't what he expected to see and neither is the garrison. Shiro finds that out the hard way after learning about Adam’s death, so how do you guys think all this will impact his relationships? How do you think Shiro is handling the grief of knowing what happened to Adam?

Lauren Montgomery: Well, I think obviously [the Paladins] have been through a lot together and coming back to Earth and finding it in this state is certainly a blow. But I don't think it's really going to make them act any differently toward each other. If anyone's put in a weird position, it's probably Allura or Coran who went from being the people who knew everything to now suddenly they're strangers in a strange land.

Obviously, [Shiro] going to live with this guilt of never fully knowing if he brought this upon Earth. If he did not come back for the Blue Lion, if he had not started this whole Voltron resurgence, would the Galra have ever attacked? There’s definitely, I think, a level of guilt there but it's not something that he can dwell on or allow to stop him from ultimately achieving his goal which is fighting back and ending the war.

It's something I think would be entirely internalized. Again, he's a professional, he's been pushing through all of that pain and all of that guilt for the entire series. We saw it kind of getting to him early on in the series, but he keeps it... He's kind of over it by now.

Joaquim: I think, as everybody knows, Shiro is the person who has the most thrown at him in the series, and he's been the pilar and the rock in reference to himself. He'll continue to play that role.

I can’t be the only one who believes that, as good as it currently is, VLD would be WAY better if the execs hadn’t forced Shiro back so early, and if Keith was forced out of the team. The story feels like a mess without Keith. It would have been so much better if JDS and LM were allowed to tell the story they wanted to tell. And it would be so much better if Keith was allowed to organically grow into the Black Paladin role.

Instead, we get Keith getting shunted off and treated like a side character for now, and a big mess of a plot at a time when the story should be charging at full steam by now. This perception might change post-s6, of course. But really, the team and characters deserve so much better than the hand they’ve been dealt.

And that’s not even getting into how awful the fandom’s been.

Common sense would tell you not to harass any of the vld staff memebers. They work hard to bring us content as it is and this is not only pathetic but fucking sad. Stop harrassing people and just be a decent human being for fucks sake.

Sending death threats isnt going to stop people from shipping what they want. Nor is it going to make the your favorite ship canon either. Y'all really suck the fun out of fandoms w this kinda crap I just wanna enjoy the show.

[cheer-me-up-scotty]

The VLD staff is just SO FUCKING TALENTED! They think things thoroughly and do the best with what they can and have. They’re so good ^^

OHMYGOD OHMYGOD OHMYGOD

It really is telling how much klantis dont care about rep lol - like seriously? Yall going to harrass GAY MEN about an unproblematic ship? Pedophilia? They're 4-5 years apart now and Shiro had a BOYFRIEND when he met Keith, dead argument. Incest? Not blood related and when asked, the STORY EDITOR laughed at the implication that they'd be brothers blood or adoptive, dead argument. The creators don't like Sheith and called it a "problem"? Its because there was no Sheith problem in the first place and explain why they continue to like Sheith art well after that interview, I'll wait lol.
