one scene you wanted to see in season 8

Okay I'm going to admit something. I have never seen season 8 :"(

BUT, from what I do know about season 8...

Or really just the whole show overall, I really wish we got more episodes focusing specifically on the main characters rather than the war. It feels like as the show went on, we didn't really get to see those relationships develop, so the whole found family trope kinda fell flat on its own face.

Like we're suppose to believe they're super close and like family, and they just...don't spend time together. Especially since certain characters lack any interaction together (a big example of this is Allura and Hunk. They practically have no moments together).

This ties in with my love for episodes like Space Mall. The characters actually spent time with each other and their arcs overlapped. They showed their friendship with each other.

I also wish there were more episodes that directly addressed characters' insecurities. They were mention a lot but never acknowledged or directly resolved (Lance's inferiority issues, Keith's abandonment issues, Pidge's fears of losing family, Allura's loss of family).

I can't think of a specific scene I wanted but I hope this answers ur questions!

[angelpuns]

ohmigosh you like Voltron toooo :D??? i like punk (Hunk and Pidge)

I used to be really into it! I've sort of grown away from it in the past few years, but I was really into it for a while :)

They're okay, I was always more of a Klance fan :3 I really loved their characters tho! I wish we had gotten more Hunk development from the series in the end tho, he deserved better :/

[soadscrawl]

I've always wanted to see more of Keith and Pidge's relationship from the show (lookin at you voltron writers).

BUTTT personally, I think the short arses would have very... creative ways of getting around the castle.

Fridge hopping is a must.

short kings stick together

[proshippers-against-censorship]

Is there fandoms that were popularized because of proshippers?/genq

Keith leaving Lance with engagement rings hidden in their home thinking "I'll ask him when I get back"

Only...Keith's mission goes wrong. So wrong that everyone thinks he's dead, and lance? Well, he finds those rings

At first he's heartbroken over them. The delicate but intricately carved bands with blue and red gems. How pretty they look on his hand, how pretty they'd have been on Keiths–its too much to think about at first.

Then, that sorrow burns itself into rage. The audacity this man had to leave such a thing behind so poorly hidden! To have left them here while he himself is no longer. It pisses Lance off for the longest, yet none will see him a second without both bands on a chain round his neck.

The thing is, Lance never actually stops looking for Keith. None of them do even when all the evidence points to the worst case scenario and all the Garrison believe he's gone as well as their allies.

So Lance gathers himself. He marches right into that damned ship–the Atlas– and he makes himself a spot right at the top of the food chain bc he'll be damned if he's too low to search for his stupid fiance. He didn't ask for a position, didn't apply, didn't let the earth team think for even a second they could talk down to him. Lance simply made his place known and very apparent from day one.

Shiro supported him full throttle, as did the rest of his team, Vera, Adam and Curtis. Which made it all the easier.

Now, did Lance tell them he was doing this just to find Keith? No, but only because they'd throw him back into grief counseling and that's not at all what he needs right now.

Little does Lance know it's not him that finds Keith...it's Keith that finds Lance. And he does so by landing the worst he's ever had into the barracks of the Atlas, throwing himself through the halls and right into the meeting Lance was 10seconds away from arguing in.

He's point two second away from opening his mouth before he's got an arm full of Keith squishing the living daylights out of him. Lance is shaking from the emotions that overwhelm him in that moment. Tears running down his face of their own free will, his hands tremor as they come up to clutch onto Keith like a lifeline.

And through everything is a rush of relief at the knowledge he's alive

Keith alive! He's alive he's alive he's alive.

And when Keith pulls back just enough to rest their foreheads together he's stopped in his tracks because Keith is apologizing a million miles a minute but all lance can focus on is the sound of his voice. All up until Keith says those two magical words

"Marry me..."

It comes out so hopelessly breathless, so hopeful, so dreadfully delicate and that rage from before fires back full force.

"How dare you?!" He grits out, stepping back to point his finger right into Keith's chest "you go missing and leave rings for me to find in our house!"

"I–"

"Then! You get pronounced dead, have us all grive for you and think you can come in here and ask me to marry you?"

"Lance, I–"

"And you have the audacity to think I'd say anything but yes? To think I didn't already consider you my fiance?! My dead fiance?!"

"What the fuck did you want me to say then?!"

Lance flails his hands "literally anything else!"

"Well?!"

"Well what?!"

"Your response dip shit! I never actually got to ask you it's not my fault you found the rings!"

"It's not my fault you hid them so poorly!" Lance snaps and now they're back to being chest to chest, centimeters apart "yes."

Keith's face consorts, confused, and lance laughs "yes you idiot, I'll marry you...."

The sighs of relief are short lived as Lance declared Keith has to ask in an actual way now "the proper way Keith! I deserve that much"

And from now on? Keith's trackers are updated. He will never go missing again if Lance has anything to say about it, he's got a husband to keep track of afterall.

“Keith is not a tsundere he just sucks” you know and understand more than a simple mortal mind could ever dream

i feel like a quintessential part of understanding keith's character is realizing that he is generally okay at socializing with people (he just doesn't like dealing with strangers), but there is something very specific about lance that makes keith fumble every single interaction they have

[heynhay]

[existwound-moved]
