The things I'd do to these men would put me in a mental facility

Season 8, Episode 5. Curtis so far has a total of five lines.

...

Takeshi, you could have gone for someone else. Someone who spoke more.

[bluemantics]

As his eyes slowly blink open, the sound of beeping infiltrates Shiro’s ears, and he groans. Bright sunlight filters in through the window and into the blurry room. With trembling forearm, he tries to sit up, grabbing his glasses off the side table and focusing his vision.

“You’re awake.” His gaze catches on Curtis, who holds a closed book in his lap. Curtis looks tired, but relieved, a gentle smile creasing the lines around his eyes.

“How long—“

“Just five hours.” Just. Even if Curtis looks at him with understanding, embarrassment flushes Shiro’s face. Five hours he’d kept Curtis waiting at his bedside.

Now that he’s properly awake, he can see how uncomfortable and sterile the hospital room is. Thin, ratty curtains hang framing the window. The floors and ceiling are both white. Curtis, sitting beside him, is in a stiff, plastic chair.

“I’m sorry.” Shiro’s left hand pushes at his face, rubbing his eyes and twisting to adjust his hair.

“Don’t be,” Curtis rolls his eyes, smile flattening slightly. “I know you can’t help it. You keep me safe. It’s sweet.”

A sharp pain in Shiro’s side only causes the guilt to fester. He pulls back the thin white sheet he’s under, feels under his hospital gown for the thick bandages wrapped around his chest and his stomach.

“Not gonna call me stupid?”

“You already know you’re stupid,” Curtis plainly states, narrowing his eyes. “If Keith and Lance hadn’t been there, you’d probably have seven more cuts. Idiot.” It sounds pained and fond all at once coming from his mouth.

Memories flash through Shiro’s mind. Shopping for the reunion barbecue with Curtis, Keith, and Lance. Getting separated in the store, then cornered by a thin, wild-eyed man with shaking hands. Trying to calm down the panicked man on his own, slowly approaching him with rational words of reality and war being over.

He hadn’t accounted for a knife.

Keith turning a corner before it all went dark.

Shiro blinks it all away.

“You’re alive. That’s all I need, for now.” Curtis reaches to place a firm hand on Shiro’s chest, eyes searching.

Gratefulness blooms where his hand is placed, spreading warmly through Shiro’s limbs. He can’t help but smile, eyes tearing up. Shiro sucks in a shaky, rattling breath.

“I’m really bad at retirement,” he admits, throat tight.

“The worst,” Curtis agrees.

“I love you,” Shiro whispers, ignoring the tight jabs of injury to place his hand over Curtis’.

“I love you, too.”

Soldier is now explicitly gay in-game! yippee

Something funny is I saw people be like "is he talking about Reaper?????" (A testament to the inherent intrigue of toxic yaoi) since the circumstances of Soldiers sexuality reveal was 6 years ago. He is actually talking about this guy

We all know who this guy is /s

[eggsandbxcon]

Shiro being canonically gay is lovely but simultaneously the most frustrating thing in the world because every time I rewatch Voltron I find SO many parts where they could have talked about it at least a little bit and just didn’t. Literally from like episode one there could’ve been an Adam mention but we get NOTHING. Shiro crashes to earth “where’s Adam?” No? Nothing? When the team are thinking about the things that mean a lot to them in episode one and Shiro is JUST thinking about the garrison??? Like babe think about your wonderful boyfriend.

I’m losing my mind I KNOW it’s just queer baiting blah blah blah but they could’ve done things so easily and just didn’t. Grinds my cheese.

Oh I NEED to see little Shiro and Cg Curtis

Hello yes! Cg! Curtis is very supportive of Shiro showing him Bluey every 2 or 3 minutes. I can hear him saying "Oh yes! Look! Bluey is still on!" And Shiro kicks his legs very happily

[cockybusiness]

u heard about "matching eachother's freak"

now get ready for "matching eachother's vanilla"

[squeakyleftsneaker]

Who the fuck is Curtis, dawg?

Not to be rude or anything but like who??????? WHO??????

[mangocallum]

Voltron, as a series is amazing, but I can agree with other people, that the last couple of seasons were weak as heck

There were alot of times where it just made me sit back and go "yo wtf??" And just sit there in sadness as I thought about the wasted potential of the show

So here's a top 3 Voltron things we had in the show!

1. Adam. Oh gosh, I'm here for when I speak for most people that Adam was one of those characters where barely got to see any of them. (because he's dead) And too me, that's just messed up.

He's one of the shows cannon LGBTQ+ rep (along with Shiro), and just killing cannon representation off like that, is just No. WHY???

I wish we could have seen more of Adam, or even Shiro mention him earlier into the series with more of his memories/flashbacks, or even KEEPING HIM ALIVE!! Either way, we all wanted to see more of Adam, and it was really sad to just see his 4 or so minutes of screen time 😞

2. An actual Shurtis storyline. More on Shiro, here we are discussing his relationship with Curtis.

As much as I love Shiro's ending of his wedding and getting married to his husband Curtis, I can understand why some people were upset at this ending.

We never really saw much of Shiro and Curtis together aside from the wedding in the epilogue.

I feel like if they at least had some moments to showcase their relationship, or even flourish Curtis' character would be nice, as the ending of them getting married would make much more sense, and be more satisfying.

I've read some amazing fics on ao3 with Shiro and Curtis. Those fics honestly show what we could have had in the show, I feel like a good plotline for a Shiro/Curtis related plot/ subplot is them wanting to ask each other out or confining in eachother due to the stress off the war.

ANYTHING, just any plot between them would make Shiro's conclusion more satisfying.

3. A better character arc and ending for Lance.

Oh, good golly gee. Lance McClain. Where do I even start. Lance is, and always will be, my favourite character. He was honestly done so dirty by the creators ☹️

His ending of making him a farmer was not it. Like seriously, him settling down, having a simple life, and being a farmer when his lifelong dream was to be a pilot?? No. Just NO.

The rebound treatment, him getting treated like a rebound towards Allura. Honestly Allurance wasn't even that bad, if it was fleshed out more and we got too see more of Allura and Lance together, it could have been something. But the way they decided to execute it in the series itself was horrible.

Lance was a rebound, and Allura showed zero to no interest in him. Allura fell in love with Lotor, not Lance. Honestly, I feel like Lotor and Allura being together should have done some good in Lance's character arc rather than it being bad. It should have taught him to try to move on, or console in his friends, ie, Pidge, Hunk, even Keith etc etc.

Maybe this whole arc could have made him realise who he really needed was right infront of him all along. *wink wink nudge nudge*

Or possibly to realise his own self worth, and that he's more than just "a boy from Cuba"

I think they made him get with Allura beacuse he was such a "ladies man" but in reality he's so much more than that ☹️ He's a guy who values his friends and family, putting himself before others, and wanting the better for others, I wish they could have explored that in him more.

Obviously, there is SO much more I could cover, way much more, this doesn't even scratch the surface! But these are the top three ones that really just stick out to me.

I love voltron! This show is literally one of my favourite shows. It's not perfect, yes, but it's done what it could in it's two year running time, so sad it's getting removed off netflix 😞

some silly voltron thoughts;

shiro is actually very goofy and fun around his partner (originally this was gonna be about adam but it could also apply to curtis)

around the team, he's their leader and a parental figure. he provides them with guidance and instruction, and he's a mentor. he's the black lion's paladin, but with his partner, he's shiro and that's so special to me guys

like imagine he's baking with his partner, he's wearing some branded apron he was gifted by the garrison as part of a consolation package, and they both have flour in their hair and on their noses.

whatever they were making ends up burnt but they laugh about it and order postmates instead, turning on a stupid horror movie and eating storebought cookies until they fall asleep on the couch.

it's one of the few domestic moments that shiro *really* gets to experience as a pilot, but more importantly it makes him remember he's in his fucking 20's. it gives him a chance to actually feel like it.

when he's around someone he loves (especially if it's romantic), he lets himself feel like he doesn't know what he's doing. and that feels so, so good. for once, he doesn't have to pretend all of his shit is together, and he can relax and act his age.

OK I know that Tumblr isn't twitter and it's not about fighting with people but I really hate how much everyone hates the fact that Adam and Shiro didn't get together in the end. And because of that they take it out on Curtis. I do think that Voltron has a lot of missing parts in its story. I have a LOT of critiques towards the shows storytelling, but the only reason Shiro got with Curtis is because Adam passed away. I think it's a really important thing to show that war takes EVERYTHING from you. If we had been shown more of Shiro's relationship with Adam and Curtis we would've had a very sad story about a lover passing away and a very heartwarming story about finding the courage to move on. I really don't know why Voltron didn't take the time to make up more episodes about the character's relationships with each other, their experiences with literally having to leave everything behind to fight in a space war in a day, how Sam Holt, Shiro and Matt death with the extremely traumatising experience of being slaves and prisoners for the Galra, Lance and Hunk as characters are EXTREMELY empty I mean we only learn about their family TWICE. The show has so many missing parts but I think that Curtis and Shiro are cute and if they had a bit more time they could've been amazing. Anyways sorry for thr long ass rant and ThatBlueGalran out.
