#voltron legendary defender season 7

[evi-anxiety]

I think one of my favorite moments in "The Feud!" is when the other paladins get so angry at Lance they just straight up tell him to kill himself

[little2nerdy]

tell me why i was the same age as pidge when i watched voltron for the first time and now i'm closest in age to shiro 😭

[bottomlangst]

do you guys ever think about how lance died and it was never addressed? that could’ve been such an interesting plot point with lance feeling different afterwards.

teen wolf had their protagonists die and come back and on the show they described having a darkness around their hearts, like a scar.

imagine that with lance, how not only does no one care he died but now he has this black hole in his chest and head that swallows him from the inside and the team has to acknowledge his sacrifice in order to help him get better.

would’ve been such a heartfelt plot point, if only they didn’t hate lance.

never watched Star Trek, and i don’t know anything about it. but seeing as how the founding fathers: Spock/Kirk (Spirk) basically invented the term "slash" and gave shipping culture a massive push into what it is today, ALL THE WAY BACK IN THE SIXTIES, and now fans finally have a comforting closure, and essentially a confirmation of it being canon, for Spirk with Unification, that has everyone who understands how important this is reacting like:

truly is beautiful.. maybe the world is healing <3

congrats to Spirk shippers!!

Inspired by @mdoodlerfandomart 's Coalition Lance AU.

~~~

The Voltron team was in a somber mood as they made their way back to Earth. Pidge a bit less so, because she was so looking forward to seeing her mom and dad, but even that only served to remind her that one of their own wouldn't be coming home to his family. The Voltron team had a Lance shapped hole in their ranks and everyone was feeling his absence.

Coran missed the incesant chatter from the coms which Lance had usually initiated, and Allura missed their gossip beauty sessions. Shiro had an immense amount of guilt over Lance's capture, despite technically not having been there when it happened. He contantly wondered if his clone had somehow set Lance up in an ambush, and hated that his memories of that time were disjointed and blurry at best.

Pidge busied herself by radioing every ship and planet within distance to ask if they had seen a man, tall, brown skin and blue eyed, but everyone she could get in contact with said no. (On the plus side of this process, though, they did discover that the Coalition seemed to be in good hands, so that was a relief, at least.)

Hunk kept a small notebook where he drafter hundreds, if not thousands, of ways in which he might have to break the news to Lance's family that their son, brother, cousin, uncle, etc., was MIA, likely presumed dead. None of them were completed because Hunk inevitably broke down in tears every time before he could finish any of them.

And Keith... well, Keith kept holding onto hope that Lance was alive, somewhere in the wide universe. He simply refused to believe that Lance was dead. The team kept telling him he was in denial, but it was the only thing that kept him going. Otherwise he didn't think he'd be able to function. He often played with one of Lance's necklaces that Keith now wore and wondered about his whereabouts.

If he was in a good mood, Lance had escaped to a planet of peaceful aliens and awaited rescue. It was his greatest, most indulgent daydream that they defeated the Galra once and for all and Keith led a rescue mission to find Lance, found him and brought him home. However, if he was in a bad mood, he tended to imagine progressively worse case scenarios that left him on the verge of a panic attack and spiralling. It was the uncertainity that got to him and wore him down.

As the Earth finally appeared in front of them, Red and Blue picked up speed and went ahead of the rest to spearhead the formation. It was a bit unusual, but the Paladins didn't have the energy to question it. There were a lot of mixed emotions in the group and they were absolutely exhausted in every way that mattered. The comms were quiet. Each Paladin was lost in their thoughts, and their missing Paladin weighed heavily in their minds.

Suddenly, as they entered the Earth's athmosphere, the comms began to crackle.

"Earth to Voltron, do you copy?"

Every single one of the Paladins startled in their seat and their eyes widened in disbelief. They turned on their comms and cameras. They all looked at each other as if they had seen a ghost. Hunk was the first to break the silence.

"Was that...?"

"Earth to Voltron, do you copy?" the voice repeated and this time Keith yanked the radio out of its base as his heart felt like it was going to beat out of his chest.

"Lance?! Voltron to Earth, we copy. Lance, is that you?!" Keith yells into the receiver.

"Keith?! Oh my gosh, you're alive!" Lance exclaimed on the other side.

"What do you mean I'm alive? You're alive!" Keith retorted and he couldn't help the smile on his face or the tears in his eyes.

Just then they received a notification of an incoming live transmission that Pidge immediately accepted. A new screen popped up in front of them and there he was, alive and breathing, the one and only, Lance McClain.

On the screen, he laughed incredulously as he wiped at his eyes and said, "Hey guys, it's been a while."

What followed was chaos: everyone began talking at the same time, raising their voices to be heard above the others, and asked all sorts of questions wanting to know how Lance ended up on Earth, how he escaped the Galra, was he okay, he he seen their families, were they okay and the cockpit descended into pandemonium as Lance valiantly attempted to answer all of them.

Keith, however, was quietly taking in and just looking at his boyfriend after years of holoscreens and memories. Lance was no longer a lanky, awkward teen. He'd filled out: his shoulders broadened and, while still thin, he seemed to have gained a lot of muscle. His face had sharpened and Keith could see a bit of stubble on his chin and cheeks. He had a few new scars, too. He was also wearing a Garrison unifform, with a few medals in it.

"Keith?" Lance asked, and Keith realized he'd just missed most of the conversation. Keith smiled.

"Hey, sharpshooter," he replied. Lance sent him a flirty smirk in return.

"What? Did you miss me?"

"You have no idea," Keith answered and didn't care if he was being sappy in front of the Paladins and however many people were in the command center. Lance chucked wetly and his gaze softened.

"We're ready for you to land. Unfortunately, our hangars aren't anywhere near large enough for the lions, but there's an open field right outside. Crew members will be waiting for you in their vehicles to bring you to base. There are some people here who can't wait to see you guys!"

Keith raised an eyebrow. Lance looked, and sounded, so mature... so professional. It was hard to believe he was the same goofball he fell in love with.

"How come you're at the helm?" he asked. Lance smirked, but it was Pidge who answered.

"If you hadn't been so busy making oogly eyes at him, you would have heard that he's the head of the coalition. You know, the one we've hearing about," she snarked with a shit-eating grin on her face.

"Wait, for real?!" Keith exclaimed.

Lance gasped and grabbed his chest in a wounded gesture, "You heathen! Can you sound a little less surprised? Do you really have so little faith in me? You wound me!"

Someone out of shot of camera in the command center said something to Lance that the Paladins didn't manage to catch. Lance's reaction, though, was telling enough. He scoffed in mock offense and replied, "You take that back!"

Keith laughed. It was nice to see his Lance in this new, grown version of him. He asked, "How did that even happen?"

Lance scoffed again and rolled his eyes, "Again, it's a very long story and I don't want to clutter the frequency. You're welcome to come for dinner at mine's and I'll tell you all about it." Lance winked.

"Fine," Keith relented.

"Transmission over," Lance said and his screen disappeared. Only then did Keith pay attention to the looks of awe and joy in the rest of the Paladins. Hunk was even openly crying and babbling about how glad he was that Lance was okay. Keith felt the same.

It was as if a stone had been lifted off of his chest and now he could breathe! Liquid fire poured through his veins and, for the first time in a long while, he felt like he could battle a hundred cruiseships and win! Red purred in his mind, and Keith was transported back to the very first time he flew red, before the war and their losses had worn down his excitment and passion for flying a sentinent lion in space. He smirked.

"Race you," he said, and sped down towards the Earth at full speed. Red happily obliged.

"You cheat!" Pidge yelled and gave chess.

Hunk followed with an indignant, "Hey!"

Allura, Shiro and Coran laughed joyously and tried to catch up.

Keith didn't care all that much, to be honest. He had a very pressing reunion to get to, after all.

~~~

I hope you liked it! It's just a scene, and it doesn't encompass a lot of events but I wanted to focus on the characters. I'd like to explore other scenes, perhaps later, from Lance's POV on Earth or maybe Keith's POV when he first finds out Lance is missing until they exit the time dilation worm hole thingy.

Let me know what you think!✌🏼

[atla-what-is-this-site]

listen, the whole 7 years cliffhanger means TDP will have to release a new season.

8 seasons.

Gee, i wonder where they got that idea.

[keepofkandrakar]

it should not have taken me three watches and several years to realize that Voltron is just very gay Power Rangers 

[makorragal-312]

That moment when you're on the Klance shipper to Buddie shipper pipeline and you realize that the queerbait you experienced before just got obliterated with your comfort character's bi confirmation.

redrawing of that one scene from s7 (that doesn't exist)

[chaoticstarlightwonderland]

Watching season 7 of Voltron and I forgot how much I liked it.

I decided to rewatch the parts of the last two seasons since those are the only ones without DVDs, and I forgot how much I enjoy the latter half of season 7.

The battle scenes are so cool. And the MFE crew are fun. Especially the blonde autistic girl she is a delight. I love the details of the crowd shots. And we get to see how much the paladins have bonded with the lions. The episode where they are stuck drifting in space is good too. Seeing Shiro leading the Atlas really gives the character some purpose that’s been wobbly for a while now. Plus he’s so cute.

There’s also some fun character interactions and animations/poses that are so fun/cute to see.

I’m probably a little biased cuz I’m watching this fearing that it will all be lost tomorrow, but there are some real strengths to this season. I remember there was some talk about people wishing s7, as is, was the finale cuz of the good fights and satisfying finish, and hopeful note for the future.

Obligatory note: General Sanda still sucks. I wouldn’t mind if there was a fix-it fic where she had a heart attack as soon as Sam Holt landed and most of humanity was saved cuz she wasn’t there. Like her existence isn’t necessarily bad writing but the fact they tried to redeem her in the end gave attention to her in the funeral is where I draw the line.

[snivy1245]

it seems the only reasons people disliked this season were shipping and queerbaiting promos

And having not been exposed to either of those this was awesome

now for

...season eight

Let's not talk about that

[black-daisy7]

So for an AU of Voltron: Legendary Defender here is the alt form for Shiro. he takes on the look of a lion with wings & a constant shifting galaxy(Left is his calm mode Right is Angry mode.) he gains this ability after season 2.

which he first start as a poofball then the lion form with Fuzzy-fluffy dowe wings, but they become the full wings after he eventually loses the metal arm, & gains a galaxy looking arm that has no claws. ps. the claws are silver metallic pencils. ✨Shiny✨

Attack mode in season 7 & onward AU.

His mane is fuller & turns white, & his right arm/paw can inflict spiritual damage while his claws deal physical damage.

PS. He can talk in this form.

Roar!🦁

[flukefantasy]

By far, my largest gripe in a world post-Voltron Legendary Defender is the fact that there is no model kit for the IGF-Atlas.
