#voltron pastel magical girl

[waitjustasecond-toro]

hello this is my intro: i am toro, nice to meet you! i dont use tumblr as often as i did on my old account (2017 era), so i may be a little rusty, forgive me.

i have adhd, generalized anxiety, and depression (not sure how this really matters but i just wanted to mentionn)

i like cats, drawing, the colour pink, music, silence, anything artsy honestly, piano, video games like minecraft, ihnmaims (i have no mouth and i must scream), roblox (some games like rh, mimic, etc), and more!!!

i like alot of shows such as: she-ra, block 13, tawog, toh, and hazbin hotel/helluva boss (kinda,, ive watched both and theyre pretty entertaining but i avoid associating with their fandoms cause its full of weirdos;;;), voltron, hilda, object shows, and much much more

i also enjoy creepypastas and alot of horror things in general; contrary to that, i really like cutesy things like precure animes and magical girls and shoujo/girly shows. pink and pastels are two of my faves, and i HATE most greens.

i kin bocchi the rock (alot, as you can tell by my account right now), luz noceda, twilight sparkle, and more (that im too tired to list out right now)

i have alot of mixed opinions and interests, so if youre sticking around for only one, beware;

DNI : basic criteria; proshippers, comshippers; most radqueers (the ones who like kids and animals, the rest are thin ice/okay)

thin ice: most transID (transgender people (+ the umbrella) interact, the rest are thin ice)

interact: anyone else??? people who dont make me uncomfortable ig; ill update later when i figure that out hehe

idk what else to add,,, plz dont talk to me i freak out alot and it makes me uncomfortable btw ! 🩷

Galtean Klance AU Meet-Cute

Hello! I’m going through my GDrive and uploading all the pieces that I wrote for apps and then never posted.

Here’s my first ever Klance piece, which is a short one-shot of two guardsmen from different species meeting in an Altean courtyard after a tree-climbing expedition goes awry. Come for bored Galran Keith, stay for smarmy Altean Lance’s attempts to flirt (with mixed results).  

Read it here or below the cut:

https://archiveofourown.org/works/19781197

Keith flicks through the security report as his foot skims the purple flowers in the garden below. He’s been ordered to be polite, to be open, to make himself available to their Altean hosts. He wouldn’t half mind, but all the sunshine and pastels are a tad much, and he’s pretty sure he’s developing a pollen allergy.

Still, he’s heard the speech enough times not to bother protesting.

“Guardsmen, you stand in the legacy of Voltron! Voltron: a shining symbol of the peace and prosperity that we can all experience when our races stand together, united by bonds of brotherhood and love.”

Yada, yada, yada.

Look, it’s not like he has anything against Voltron, or the concept of cooperation (at least in theory). But no matter how many speeches the top brass gives or how many weapons they allow the Honor Guard to carry, nothing can change the fact that this is diplomatic duty, and his sworn oath iss...to defend an Altean courtyard.

“To the death,” he snorts in a mock salute to an overly curious honey-catcher that has decided his hair might be some special new flower, worthy of investigation.

A pair of boys with cotton candy hair enter the peaceful enclave, screaming in childish joy as their shared kite takes to the wind (before promptly getting tangled in a tree). They’re soon followed by an older girl who seems more seafoam than Altean, so wild and overwhelming is her gauzy dress and loose-bound hair. The boys pull on her hands and entreat her to rescue their kite from its new home in the iridescent leaves of the Balaa tree. Keith sees her point in his direction and he has to suppress the sudden and intense urge to flee, dereliction of duty be damned. Sure enough, moments later his relatively peaceful existence is shattered by two chattering boys, who fall over themselves as they beg him to retrieve their paper dragon.

“Uh, that’s not really-”

Big eyes look up at him. Holy flames, are they crying? Over this?

He imagines the security debriefing, where he has to explain why Senator So-and-so’s child was weeping about evil Galra, and admits defeat. With his luck, these are probably royal princes and that kite is actually some sacred treasure.

“Alright. Let’s...go climb a tree, I guess.”

The boys scream in ear-splitting joy as they grab two gauntleted hands and drag him to his quarry. This is not what he intended when he joined the garrison and declared his intent to become a great protector. ... Climbing the tree takes an embarrassingly long time.

The Balaa is taller and smoother than it appeared on first glance, and when Keith pulls a dagger to help with his ascent, Ms. Mermaid nearly faints before the boys, (brothers, it turns out), explain to him, as if he’s very young and very stupid, that the Balaa tree is very sensitive and very special and he can’t, under any circumstances, damage it.

Because of course the kite had to get caught in a magic tree. Because that’s Keith’s luck.

He ends up having to give up his weapons, his boots, and his gauntlets before he’s allowed to continue his valiant efforts at conquering the tree. At some point, his audience offers to let him give up, their faith in their hero dwindling with each failed attempt. But Keith is stubborn. This isn’t about the tree or the kite anymore, it’s about his honor. As a Galra. As a man.

That’s how he ends up alone and stuck in a Balaa tree as the sun sets and the moons rise. Soap-bubble leaves seem to giggle at him as he gives up and lays flat on his back, waving his prize in the air, making laser sounds with his mouth as he imagines it’s one of the Empire’s fighters instead of a pastel toy.

“Need some help up there, Ace?”

Keith looks down and locks eyes with one of the Altean guardsmen, a tall man with dusty lilac hair, softly shining armor, and brilliant, luminescent markings that shine like stars in the fading light of the walled garden.

Keith coughs and tries to hide the toy behind his back, which necessitates sitting up, which upsets his balances which...is how he ends up falling directly into the arms of the smarmiest Altean he’s ever met.

Look, mistakes were made. He just hopes none of the other members of the garrison are seeing this.

“Wha-? How?”

He blinks up in confusion, something his rescuer takes full advantage of as the Altean fires off a dazzling smile and leans in close, whispering:

“I’m Lance, and you’re right here in my arms.”

Keith wonders if punching counts as rudeness in this situation. He sighs. Probably. Instead, the grumpy Galra reaches forward and pinches his rescuer’s cheeks, the surprise attack giving him time to find his own feet and to enjoy the positively undignified (and very un-Altean) squeak that Lance lets out as he rubs at his markings and glares at his not-so-grateful comrade.

“Oh, come on! What are you, part snick?”

“Yeah. It’s an ancient Galra secret. We all have secret pincher powers.”

Keith sets down the kite while Lance pouts. If the kids care about it, they can come find it in the morning. For now, he turns away from Lance and starts putting on his discarded armor, hopping awkwardly on one foot as he tries to force a boot back on. Lance, cheeks and self-confidence rapidly re-inflating, tries to make small talk with the very cute, very distant Galra Honor Guard. He’ll woo him right here in a stunning adaptation of the beloved romance opera, “Rielle and the Forbidden Meringue.” This is his chance to showcase his intellect, his ardour, his way with words:

“So...you like gardens? Altean gardens, I mean? You...come out here often?”

Keith, newly rebooted, looks up and quirks an eyebrow. Smooth Lance, real smooth.

“Well, it’s my duty station. So yes, I’m here often.”

Lance waits for a continuation of the conversation, maybe some playful banter, but he’s bound for disappointment. That’s okay though. He’s a stubborn man, according to everyone who knows him and several who don’t, which he considers a point of personal pride.

“My posting too, but I guess our shifts don’t overlap.”

“Lucky.”

“Huh?”

Keith sighs and looks around as he picks up the abandoned security report and looks out across the darkened courtyard, enjoying the way the moons bathe the sleeping foliage in hues of plum and cerulean.

“This is my first time seeing it, but...I like it better at night. The colors, the sounds...it’s more like home. You’re lucky to be alone under the stars instead of suffocating in the sun.”

He blushes faintly and looks away while Lance restrains himself from breaking into song and dance at getting a multi-syllabic reply. He’s the smoothest in the garrison. He knew it!

“Huh..Well, do you want me to show you around, then?”

Keith hesitates.

“Come on, you might like it! And after all, what kind of guardsman would I be if I didn’t try to make you feel more at home?”

There’s a long pause as Keith weighs his options and his interests.

“Fair enough. What kind of guardsman would I be if I didn’t accept the chance to learn more about my post?”

The two men walk in a lazy and winding patrol, their stride occasionally broken by Lance’s antics. First, it’s the way Lance casually slides his arm through Keith’s while explaining the history of a particular birdbath. Then, it’s the way he pulls Keith down to smell a moon-blooming Orva, soft but insistent that his new friend/hostage just has to take a sniff. Keith’s not sure if these are pre-planned or the result of genuine puppy-like enthusiasm, but he finds he doesn’t mind, either way. He’s...enjoying himself, against his better judgment.

They’re at the far side of the garden, where the smooth walls and manicured lawns give way to the trees, when Lance grabs Keith’s hand and pulls him into the forest, heliotrope eyes locked on some small and fluttering thing.

Any protestations that Keith might make die on his lips as he’s pulled into a glade, where a small lunar moth rejoins its fellows, creating an undulating vortex of bioluminescent wings that beat softly around the two guards. Keith feels his mouth tip open as he lets his eyes follow the dives and glides of the creatures against the night sky, their gentle glow tricking his eyes into imagining them reaching all the way to the heavens. Lance has seen the dance of these moths for decades now, but he can’t help but be swept away anew as he watches the way the Galra’s eyes shine like molten gold, the way his lips part in awe as he watches.

He feels Keith’s hands squeeze into his, eyes still bewitched by the patterned and swirling wings.

“It’s...beautiful.”

Lance keeps his eyes on Keith.

“Yes, beautiful.”

Something in the other man’s tone breaks Keith’s focus. He looks down from the moths and the fog clears, pink slowly spreading like a bruise under mauve skin. He’s here, in a glade, in the moonlight, in Altea, holding hands with a stranger, surrounded by…

Wait a second…

He leans in close and can’t resist smirking at the way Lance’s eyes widen at his approach. He’s never been one for romance, but he tries his hand at a seductive whisper all the same:

“Hey, Lance?”

“Un- Yeah?”

“Is it just me, or is this straight outta ‘Rielle and the Forbidden Meringue?’”

And….the spell is broken.

Lance blushes all the way back to the barracks, spastic hand movements and insistences that it was just a coincidence continuing to the unguarded doors just off the side of the garden.

As Keith continues to smirk, Lance jams his hands into the pockets of his cape and mumbles about stupid Galra Diplomatic Envoys and how rude it is to show sacred films to young cadets and ruin the romantic overtures of the native population.

Keith hums to himself as he inputs his security code and turns back to the still pouting Altean. He clicks his tongue good naturedly and reaches out a hesitant hand, first planning to reach for his cheek but panicking at the last minute and instead settling for a head pat.

The rollercoaster of emotions that that simple action incites is enough to break Lance’s mumble-rant.

“Uh?”

Keith gently ruffles the other man’s hair and smiles good-naturedly, hoping he’s not giving himself away too easily. Wow, his hair is soft.

“Film or no, thanks for the tour. Honestly.”

Before Lance can come up with a charming response, Keith leans over and presses a quick kiss against the side of his mouth, nerves and low-lighting throwing off his intended trajectory just a smidge.

While Lance’s brain short circuits, Keith slips into the safety of the barracks, his courage not lasting quite long enough to see how his clumsy attempt at romance was received. It’s a shame, because it means he misses the way the Altean traces the memory of the kiss with trembling fingers, the way he leans up against the wall and smiles up at the moons like a man reborn.

Keith, huh?

“You can’t ship the Paladins/Allura with the Galra! It’s imperialist, colonialist, oppressive & racist! All the Galra are evil, they’re adults, they should know better than to genocide!”

- Keith is a mixed Galra. Are you saying that it’s x-ist for a person to be in a relationship with someone with the same ethnicity as they are? Does he only count as Galra when being shipped with Allura, but not with Lance or other Galra?

Why the hell are all these “Altean Lance x Galra Keith” AUs perfectly fine but Kallura is “EVIL OPPRESSIVE GARBAGE”?

- You heard it from the antis, folks. If you’re at war with another race, you can’t marry one of the people from that race. Guess that means that all American/North Korean & American/Middle Eastern marriages are no longer legit. They are OPPRESSIVE & ABUSIVE & RACIST.

(Does this mean that Lord Pastel Lance’s mere existence is oppression??? ^ Half Chinese & Half Taiwanese)

- Also all mixed race people are now considered oppressors. (Except when they’re not.)

- The Galra were clearly shown to have a caste system & a monarchy which lasted for many years even BEFORE the 10,000 years that Emperor Zombie Zarkon ruled. Blaytz could not even chat with a Galra servant without being criticized for being “inappropriate”. Why would the Galra “know any better”?

-> The Original Paladins were even shown to be fighting each other for GENERATIONS before they came to a diplomatic agreement & became friends, so politics were NOT at all stable back then either. Without Voltron, their bonds would have been gradually weakened by their responsibilities to their own planets/systems/people & old generation-long conflicts that were never fully resolved, thus leading to more clashing politics, internal conflicts & the Other Reality “Altea-Galra-Names of the races of the other Paladins that we never got” War.

File name is literally “And_in_some_cases,_had_been_warring_for_generations” Blaytz is clearly shown using Altean weaponry here, so the Alteans were DEFINITELY involved in this war in some way. They weren’t peace-loving monks like the Air Nomads. (Did everyone forget in s1 when Allura said that even Altean CHILDREN were trained to fight gladiators drones?)

-> As mentioned above, ALL the races had been at war, some for GENERATIONS. They all grew up hearing & seeing their parents & their grandparents & their great-grandparents trying to kill off the other races for their entire lives up until recently! Rulers being best friends does not suddenly erase years of political tensions & war between people! Why would the Galra or even the Other Reality Alteans “know any better”? They would not have seen each other as people, just as enemies.

^They had literally less than even HALF of a generation (Allura’s lifespan + the years before she was born, even if it’s an alien generation & not a human one, that’s still like what? Less than 50 years?) to get used to peace & even then, their “peace” was degrading to something more like “non-hostile low-contact” tensions near the end.

You know that your diplomacy is turning into shit when it’s been years since your leaders last visited each other. (Especially when they both have warping tech).

- Allura was raised under a similar monarchy considering that Alfor found nothing unusual about the Galra’s caste system, just that Zarkon should “lighten up” a bit.

-> She & Coran have shown “racist” tendencies & pro-Altean anti-non-Altean biases in the past, calling the human Paladins’ ears “ugly” & their brains “primitive” despite Pidge being able to hack & manipulate the Galra’s advanced tech (already 10,000 years more advanced than Altean technology, Slav even complains about the castleship being outdated as it uses ziplines instead of the warping tech that the Alteans already use) with ease & other alien races being much more conventionally “unattractive” than humans/Alteans/Galra (or not having any ears at all). It is not unsurprising that with the war escalating for political reasons (rather than “ZOMBIE ZARKON WANT BLACK LION”), that Other Reality Allura would come to view other non-Altean races as barbaric & unnecessary.

->IMPORTANT: Generations of war in alien years can translate to centuries or millenia in human years. Coran said that he saw his Grandpa build the Castle of Lions 600 years before the start of the series. Think about that. The races of the Original Paladins were fighting for THAT long. Is it any wonder that they were all biased against each other in some way? That Allura believed that Alteans were so amazing compared to other races & that the Galra were so awful?

It is extremely confusing when antis claim that the alternate reality episode is racist because Allura is a “black girl” who became a tyrannical dictator.

- She is not ethnically African/African American. She is not even a POC. Those exist back on Earth.

She was literally BORN before racism was even a thing! Humans were still hunting giant woolly mammoths back then!

Her race has never experienced slavery (slavery that the Africans/African Americans were subject to - this is very different from Galra slavery, which takes mostly from Ancient Roman style slavery as they used people for as either Gladiators or miners), voting restrictions & gerrymandering.

To equate the two is to dismiss the suffering of real Africans/African Americans. Her voice actress, Kimberly, who is black, has said so before that Allura is NOT black.

- Since the Other Reality had Alfor stay to defend Altea, no Voltron & no super advanced quintessence-based Galra war technology ready to be used, the war would have been much more drawn out, more intense & more brutal with both sides being unsure of victory (they don’t have Voltron or the Galra mega-ships to achieve near-instant victory).

-> It is also possible that without the Voltron meteorite creating a rift on Daibazaal, Honerva & Zarkon would have never met & gotten married, thus the Galra & the Alteans would have a much more unstable & shaky peace treaty to them as compared to our reality, which at least had an Altean in the Galra royal family. Thus, they would have had less common ground & become more distant from each other, giving more room for anti-Altean & anti-Galran opinions to spread. (They already disliked each other enough to war for years until the 5 original paladins agreed “Yeah war sucks, let’s kill space bandits & be friends!”)

-> Since Alfor stayed behind to defend & the war took longer, more Alteans would be alive, including morally corrupt, morally grey, evil and manipulative Alteans who could easily persuade their grief-stricken newly crowned Queen Allura to become a cruel tyrant in the name of peace & her dead father. People are not a monolith. Not all Alteans are good & kind people.

--> See Honerva (although her behavior could have possibly been influenced by the purple quintessance/quintessance poisoning)

Is Honerva an evil witch or just possessed by a rift creature? Who knows. Would she even have magic powers if she wasn’t possessed?

--> Since original Voltron is based off of Golion & Romelle is one of Lauren Montgomery’s (VLD showwriter & creator) favorite characters, if Romelle was introduced, then there would be “EVIL” Alteans. Romelle was from a group of Alteans who split off many generations ago for being “war-like” & “violent”. This may or not make an appearance in VLD, but even if they don’t, Alteans are NOT all peaceful. Again: warring with the races of the other Paladins, some for generations.

-> Coran probably wouldn’t even say anything to stop them, he didn’t bother to correct Allura when she treated Keith like dirt after finding out that he was part Galra.

-> It was implied that Other Reality Allura genocided the Galra, which is something that Our Reality Allura (pre s2-e08) may have agreed with as she viewed ALL Galra as evil. However, she only ever mentioned Zarkon & not any Galra in particular who she felt betrayed by. (The s3 flashback suggests that after Allura’s birth, the relationship between the Galra & the Alteans cooled down until they barely visited each other so she probably did not actually know Zarkon or any Galra that well.)

^Remember, this was right after Voltron was first formed. When Allura was still a baby & was just gifted that Golion Lotor helmet.

Would the peace have lasted this long if there wasn’t Voltron, the marriage & the threat of the purple Quintessence monsters to keep everyone together & to distract them? Or would it have fallen apart more slowly until it was when Allura was an adult & not a teen that the war finally began again? We were never told how old Other Reality Allura was when she lost her dad or when the war happened.

- Zarkon/Honerva still got married even though their people had been at war for years. Honerva continued to side with Zarkon & the Galra after her marriage. This does NOT make her a race traitor. She is & always will be an Altean, for better or worse. Just like General Hiira from the Other Reality. She, her men & Other Reality Empress Allura are Alteans. It does not matter what OUR Reality’s Allura said, Hiira is still an Altean.

It would be a miracle for Other Reality Allura, with no friends & no Voltron to give her hope, guidance & character development, surrounded by only politicians & other Alteans, to focus on keeping the entire universe safe instead of just keeping her people safe from THEM. You can see how she could convince herself that she was doing this all for keeping her Alteans & New Altea safe from the “barbarians”. A peace treaty forged by diplomats & monarchies could not keep her father alive. Voltron, the symbol & the legend, does not exist.

Our Reality’s Allura still has that hope & Voltron. (Which is why she naively believed that the peace that Hiira was talking about was peace that was debated & agreed upon by several races & NOT forced on them by the Alteans.)

- And lastly:

If you’re so against victims of racial oppression, genocide & colonialism being in relationships with their oppressors,

Then why aren’t you against relationships in real life where white people date/marry POC? Why do you allow mixed antis into your group if you categorize Keith & all the other mixed Galra characters as “oppressors” (except when they’re not)? Why do you allow mixed antis to call themselves POC & “victims of racial oppression”? Why don’t mixed antis yell at their white parents for “oppressing” & “abusing” their POC parents?

Why don’t you care about this stuff in real life if you’re going to care so much about its fictional nonequivalent?

Must Be Magic (chapter 3)

It’s time for the spring festival!

The soft glow of lanterns and fairy lights illuminated the stands against the darkness of the night at the spring festival. Magarians crowded the streets with children running and laughing and adults conversing with one another. There were stands with food, games, toys and other knick knacks, and in the center of town there was a stage for later performances like magic shows and dancing.

Everyone had split into groups; Allura and Ivy in one (Coran had gone off to look for a few things for the ship) and Lance, Hunk, and Pidge in another. Keith had opted to look around by himself, however it was his trick to get out of there and to some secluded area.

Keith weaved through the crowd trying to find a way out of the festival, but found it difficult to do so. After what felt like fifteen minutes, and with no sight of anyone familiar, he came to the conclusion that he was lost. Cursing to himself, Keith walked around once again, this time in search for one of the paladins, when he collided with someone’s chest. Looking up to see the asshole who wasn’t watching where they were going, Keith saw the familiar face of Shikuma. His festival getup was the same as the other Magarians; light colored robes—Shikuma’s were a pastel green—and flower crowns to represent the arrival of spring. Glancing at the crown on the taller boy’s head, Keith couldn’t help but think that it looked cute on him.

“Little Red!” Shikuma exclaimed. Okay, the moment was ruined with that stupid nickname. Shikuma immediately wrapped an arm around Keith’s shoulders. “Fancy seeing you here!”

“Well, yeah, Ivy told us to come. I was just about to leave, though.” Shikuma cocked his head to the side like a confused puppy. “How come?” he asked. “Didn't you just get here?” Keith shrugged. “I’m just….not good with people, especially with crowds this size. I’m used to being alone.” Shikuma hummed, his arm sliding from Keith to grab his chin in thought. “You know what I think?” he said. Then he smiled. “I think you just need to loosen up a bit!”

Plucking one of the exotic-looking flowers from his crown, Shikuma held it to the green crystal that hung from his neck. The crystal glowed and streaks of light spewed out and floated around the flower, vines and leaves growing out from it and braiding around each other with more of the flower blooming in little clusters. Soon it was a crown on its own. Keith had watched in amazement the whole time. “Wha….? H-How did you do that?” he questioned.

Shikuma pointed to the crystal he was wearing. “These necklaces are the source of Magarian magic,” he explained. “It’s how I turned into that cloud of smoke you were chasing the other day.” He let out a chuckle as Keith’s cheeks flushed with embarrassment. Placing the crown atop the red paladin’s head, Shikuma took him by the arm and said, “Come on, I’ll show you around!”

Shikuma kept a good hold on Keith’s arm, so as to not lose him, as the two walked through the festival. He brought Keith to almost all of the stands, showing him new foods and teaching him how to play some of the games. They even watched a few of the shows that were performed on the stage. Keith had to admit, he was actually having fun!

After sitting down at a nearby table to rest their sore feet, Keith couldn’t help but still smile. “I don’t think I’ve seen you smile before,” Shikuma said with a laugh in his tone. Keith raised a brow. “You haven’t seen me since the other day.”

“I know, I know, but still! I think your smile’s cute!” Keith felt his cheeks heat up for the second time that night. “Y-You think so?” Shikuma answered with a nod. Feeling the awkward tension between them grow after that, the boys just looked down for a few moments. That was until a voice broke through their silence.

“Shiiiiiikuuuuuumaaaaa!”

The voice grew louder as it neared their table, then suddenly a third person crashed into Shikuma in a tight embrace from behind. It was a Magarian girl with shoulder-length hair that was mostly dyed light pink while the rest was brown. Her skin was tan and her eyes dark blue, and she wore her sky blue robes like a short dress with leggings. The robes were sleeveless, making the three black tattoos on her upper arms clearly visible.

Shikuma laughed as the girl swayed him back and forth. “Rubi! What are you doing here?" he asked her. "Shouldn’t you be working at your stand?”

“I was, but my shift ended an hour ago.” Rubi’s eyes then locked onto Keith. “Ooooohhhhh, who’s this~? He’s adorable!” Then she gasped. “Don’t tell me, you’ve scored an Earthling!”

“Scored….?” Keith asked, but Shikuma waved Rubi off. “Don’t listen to her, she doesn’t know what she’s talking about. And Rubi, Keith isn’t just an Earthling, he’s a paladin of Voltron! Freaking Voltron!” Rubi’s eyes widened as she looked at Keith, slamming her hands down on the table and leaning close to him. “No way! The Voltron? The giant robot that fights aliens and stuff? Which paladin are you? What are your teammates like? What’s it like out there fighting the Galra?” Keith felt himself leaning back further in his seat at every one of Rubi’s questions, as if he would fall if she got any closer to his face.

Sensing Keith’s discomfort, Shikuma grabbed Rubi by her shoulders and gently pulled her back, saving Keith from her onslaught of questions. “Whoooah!” he said. “Calm yourself, Rubi! The last thing Little Red here needs is an interrogation. He’s here to unwind and relax.” Clicking her tongue, Rubi let out a dragged out ‘fiiiiine’ and stood from her seat. “I need to get back to the stand. That new guy probably can’t hold out for much longer.”

“Wait, I thought you said your shift was done!”

“I liiiied~!” Rubi sang as she skipped away, leaving Keith and Shikuma alone once again. “Well then,” Keith started, “she was….something.”

“Yeah, that’s just Rubi’s rowdy nature,” Shikuma replied. “She’s like that when she meets new people. You should’ve seen her try and fail to hit on my sister Suvi when she met her! It was hilarious!”

“I’m guessing Rubi’s pretty flirtatious. She’d be a perfect match for Lance.”

“Right? I thought the same thing!” Another moment of silence. “Do you….wanna get out of here?” Shikuma asked, only regretting the wording after he saw Keith's body stiffen. “N-Not like that!” he exclaimed, waving his hands in front of him. “I-I mean away from the people, away from the noise, that kind of thing.” God, this was embarrassing, but at least Keith relaxed a little. “Yeah,” Keith said, a smile gracing his features, “that sounds great.”

“So I’ve been meaning to tell you,” Shikuma said as he and Keith walked down a dirt path in the woods, “that you look really cute in that flower crown.”

“You’ve been listing a lot of things about me that are cute,” Keith remarked. “If I remember correctly, you said my smile was cute.”

“Well, I’m not gonna lie and say that you’re not. I tell the truth when I say that you’re indeed a cutie~.”

“Ew, stop,” Keith said with a laugh. Was it possible to blush three times in a day, Keith wondered, because his cheeks might as well be a fucking furnace with how much they were heating up! “But, I think you look cute in yours, too.”

“Awww, Little Red! You’re so sweet!” Shikuma pounced on the red paladin with a tight hug following. Keith didn’t tense up or freeze this time, as he was now used to Shikuma’s cheery behavior. “Okay, okay! I can’t breathe!” Successfully pushing the taller boy off of him, the two of them continued their nightly stroll for what felt like hours. However, they were so lost in talking that when they stopped, they were in an unfamiliar area.

It was dark, and the land around the boys was littered with dead trees both standing and fallen. A dense fog and rocks jutting out from the ground surrounded the area as well. “Where are we?” Keith asked. He looked over to Shikuma for an answer, however the expression on his face—wide eyes and brows knitted—made the situation even more unsettling. “Shiku—”

“We have to get out of here,” Shikuma said in a low voice. “Now.” Keith could tell from the short rises and falls of Shikuma’s chest that he was becoming scared, and fast. A loud shriek then pierced the night, ear-splitting and blood-curdling, and from how loud it sounded, it was definitely nearby. Shikuma immediately took hold of Keith’s hand and made him run with him in the direction opposite of whatever that was.

“What was that!?” Keith yelled, but Shikuma didn't answer. Instead he brought them to one of the giant rocks. Keith watched as Shikuma hastily took off his crystal necklace and drew a circle with a symbol that looked like a jagged M on its flat surface. "Grab onto me, Keith," was all he said. Hearing that shriek once again, Keith knew that it was pointless to argue. He held on tightly to Shikuma as the taller boy slammed his hand down on the ideogram. The white lines began to glow and the boys were then consumed by a light that carried them out of the forest.

"Shikuma, would you stop walking for a second!?"

The light from the ideogram had teleported the boys near the festival, which was about to end as there were people packing up the stands. Keith was trailing behind Shikuma, who was walking fast, as if to get away from everything that just happened. Keith finally caught up to him, grabbing his arm and spinning him around to face him. "What was that back there?" he questioned.

"Nothing."

"That was not nothing and you know it! What was that sound? What was that thing that made the sound?"

"God, do you ever stop asking questions!?" Shikuma snapped, causing Keith to take a step back. Shikuma was no longer chipper like he was at the festival.

"Just drop it already! What you heard back there doesn't concern you!"

Now irritated, Keith took a step forward, looking up at Shikuma with furrowed brows. "Well it concerns me now! This could be something that threatens Magara!"

"Those 'things' are Leviathans and they haven't been a threat to Magara in years! Stop trying to think you can solve problems by sticking your nose into someone's business! You can't protect everyone just because you're Mr. Hero!" Keith felt himself tense up at that. That....kind of stung. Why was Shikuma getting so angry about this?

"Fine! If you're not going to answer me, then I'll just leave!" Keith bumped his shoulder hard against Shikuma's as he stormed back to Ivy's castle. He needed sleep.

Rules: Answer the 20 questions and tag 20 amazing followers you would like to get to know better.

Name: Adreanna! (please call me Addy though)

Nicknames: I go by Addy, which is actually a nickname. Others include Addsabelle (my grandma), Sir Stinksalot (my step-dad, he’s weird), Princess (my girlfriend), and...so fucking many weird ones my mom has given me. She used to call me Apple Jane a lot

Zodiac Sign: Taurus yo

Height: 5′ 5′ (I think?)

Orientation: Bisexual, with a heavy, HEAVY preference for girls. Like if you had a pie chart of how much I like girls vs how much I like boys, it would be like 90% to 10%. Idk why exactly. Probably has something to do with every guy I’ve ever had a crush on being a douche in one way or another (and rejecting me every time lol) But girls are soft and pretty and wonderful I love them so much. I love my girlfriend more than anything in the world. I wouldn’t trade her for anything.

Ethnicity: I am very white. Scottish, Polish, and German, though none of that really holds any significance in my life. I don’t have any family traditions except for unhappy marriages

Favorite Fruit: Pineapple probably. I really like grapes though and Pink Lady apples too. Oh and cantaloupe and clementines!

Favorite season: Autumn. All the way autumn.

crunchy leaves

sweaters

beautiful leaf colors!!! like!!! where I live has a lot of trees on a lot of hills, so looking out the window at a hill full of red and orange and yellow and brown makes my heart go “!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!”

brisk weather

fall fashion is the best (I don’t participate in fashion as I am a whale with legs but everyone else looks beautiful)

perfect weather for hot drinks

APPLE CIDER

Thanksgiving!!!!

Halloween!!!!

bugs start to fuck off right back to hell where they belong

summer is ending. summer can fuck off I HATE summer

no longer sweating and dying

overcast skies, gloomy days, rain!!!!!

gray, cloudy, rainy days are,,, my reason for living

Funny thing is I actually don’t like pumpkin spice anything except for pumpkin pie guess I’ve gotta up my white girl game

Favorite Book: What the fuck kind of question is this. You come into my house. And you ask me to pick between my children.

This answer is really, really complicated. I love so many books for so many different reasons. I love Harry Potter because it’s what got me into reading longer series. I love Binge by Tyler Oakley because it helped me be more open-minded and was a big part in helping me discover what my sexuality was and that I was okay. I love The Hobbit because it was a book that helped me escape life and that taught me that caring about home and hearth is a good thing to do. I love the Warrior cats series because I fucking love cats and it was one of my first introductions to more adult situations (in terms of violence, death, grief, and loss). I love The Giver because it made me cry my eyes out. I love The Martian because it made me laugh. I love every Shel Silverstein book ever written because they made me feel like a kid again and that being a child at heart is okay. I love Journal 3 because Stanford Pines is a character I love with all my heart. I love the Percy Jackson series and most of its spin offs because I love mythology and modern aus. I love the Septimus Heap series because it was such a different, wonderful, beautiful approach to magic and wizardry that made me feel warm inside. I loved Entwined because...I just loved Entwined. (It’s a twisted fairy tale kind of deal with The 12 Dancing Princesses and one of the best things I’ve ever, ever read, hands down). I love A Series of Unfortunate Events because I have a dark sense of humor and because it makes me feel better about my life.

Books were basically my only friends growing up. People didn’t like me because I was fat, or because I didn’t want to play outside very much, or because I had only ever really talked to and hung out with my mom and my step-dad, so I had a more mature sense of humor and personality overall.. Friends came and went, but books never went anywhere. Books stayed. Junie B Jones always stayed with me. Jack and Annie always went on magical adventures that let me learn about history. Every character I met along the way stayed with me, even if they died, because I could pick them up off of a shelf and read their adventures again. I don’t read as much as I used to, because I spend a lot of time on the computer, but I’m working to change that. Books have always been an escape for me, and I’ll continue to love their stories until I die.

Favorite Flower: Roses! It’s a tie between red and pink roses. I also really like tulips!

Favorite scent: My girlfriend’s perfume. I think it’s sweetpea or something? Idk, but it always smells really nice. And I just like the way my clothes smell after I come home from spending the night at her house. It’s like her perfume, laundry detergent, and something that’s either wood or stale cigarette smoke.

Favorite color: Pink. Soft, pastel pinks.

Favorite animal: cats, red pandas, owls, wolves, penguins, cats, dogs (pugs in particular, I LOVE pugs!!!!), foxes, moose, narwhals, dolphins, orcas, eagles, hummingbirds, blue jays, orioles, lions, tigers, basically any big cats...I just love animals. If it’s soft, fluffy, or cute? Fuck yeah I love it

Coffee, Tea, or Hot Chocolate: As much as I love coffee...tea, probably. It’s just so relaxing to sit curled up under a blanket with a cup of tea and relaxing. Plus my girlfriend and I make tea whenever I go over to her house, so it holds a special place in my heart :)

Average Sleep Hours: Okay, so...if I ever got up on time, I’d be getting like five hours of sleep a night, which is fine. But I oversleep. Every. Fucking. Day. So usually seven or eight.

Cat or Dog person?: Cats. I love dogs with all my heart and I want one someday, but if I had to choose between a cat and a dog I’d choose a cat because

1.  TOE BEANS

2. purring

3. the kneading thing they do?

4. I love love LOVE the sound of a cat meowing. so cute. so gentle.

5. cat loaf

6. smaller and easier to manage

7. don’t have to walk them

8. if they need to pee in the middle of the night they just. use the litter box. you don’t need to get up and let them out

Stranger Things: Mike Wheeler, Eleven, Barb

i just,,,, have a lot of love for fictional characters,,,, there are more I’m sure, but I can’t think of any

I connected with a lot of these guys on a deep personal level. Like with Amethyst, I understand why she feels the way she does because I’ve gone through struggles of self-hatred and thinking I was a mistake. I love them all, but there are those few who I just feel like they were...made for me I guess.

Number of Blankets you sleep with: Just my comforter, but before I got my space heater in my room I’d sleep with two blankets, an electric blanket, and my comforter. My room used to be an attic, so it has like no insulation. Plus the heating ducts that go to my room are SUPER shitty, so barely any heat comes out of my vents. Now I’m just used to being cold XD But I don’t like sheets D: Even in the summer, I have to have my big comforter...sheets are too flimsy. Idk, I find the weight of a comforter or heavy blanket comforting.

When I was little though, I remember taking every blanket I owned and piling them on my bed in the winter...and I slept in a sleeping bag, on my bed, under those blankets! XD I miss that sleeping bag. It was a really pretty blue and was really warm...

Ideal Trip: going to New Zealand or England or the French countryside or somewhere with a lot of greenery. Staying somewhere where I can relax and stay in bed all day if I want to or go find things to do in the city or town or wherever is close by. My girlfriend being with me and being able to relax somewhere quiet with her where I can watch the sunlight stream across her face every morning and kiss her all over her face until she wakes up. Somewhere I can relax and not worry about what tomorrow brings; somewhere I can let my troubles float away.

Blog created: December 2014. I can’t believe I’ve been dicking around on here for almost three years.

Number of followers: 396. That may not seem like a lot to some people but??? That’s basically my graduating class??? And you’re all just here watching me shitpost about whichever one of my fandoms is relevant and cry about shit and post really fucking awful art and???? Whether you’ve been here since the beginning or just joined, thank you for hanging out with me through the internet! And if you’ve read all of this, thanks!

Magical Girl Kroila

November 13, 2018 

I used that Pastel Magical Girl dress up game for the ENTIER Voltron Magical Girl Series.

[timemachineyeah]

OKAY I’M HOME. 

Uhhhhhhhh this list is even longer than I realized? It’s a long list. 

Things of note before going into this list

- I am a Sailor Moon and Magical Girl nerd so unsurprisingly many of my faves have similar habits. 

- I tend to get really excited by animators? So many of these blogs I followed because they did cool animation.

They also vary in activity wildly - some being very active and others posting one new piece only every few months. Both are very good schedules to me. I LOVE ALL OF THIS. 

Anyway, in no particular order. @curbananimation - Cute art and animation, including fanart and animation for TAZ and Friends at the Table. Many good Taakos. 

@docbedoodle - also a fun livestreamer and gamer at @gloomy-optimist. Digital art with a tabletop/video gaming bent. I looove it. And such soothing livestreams. 

@susandrawsthings - Expressive af. Not gonna lie, I often follow art blogs that make me think “If I were to write [some idea I have], I’d want it animated in this style”, and this is absolutely 100% one of those. Such a MOOD to the work!

@abby-howard This is cheating because Abby is already Internet Famous and her webcomics are amaze, but if you aren’t reading The Last Halloween yet, you should, and also Abby has the best best best sense of humor of all time. 

@lulusketches - background artist on Tangled the Series and video blogger, Lulu’s entire body of work just radiates optimism? My eyes hurt? I cannot look at something so lovely and bright with my gollum eyes. 

@reallycoykoifish - SPARKLES AND MAGICAL GIRLS. Has Magical Girl Monday, also known as The Best Part Of The Week. I want literally every piece of this art as a tshirt. 

@madeleinelovescolours - Pretty digital art in an oil painting style. Or often actual oil paintings! Deserves a pretty picture book. The kind you keep out for people to look at. 

@arts-n-craps Doesn’t always update regularly, but every update is beautiful. Worked with @madeleinelovescolours on possibly my favorite shot on GemAnimate, the Steven Universe reanimation project. 

@goodsniff - Character design! So emotive! Such folks! May not always be safe for work, but always safe for the soul. Also an incredibly talented animator. 

@lalou-art - how are there so many good artists and animators on tumblr. I don’t even think I’m halfway through the list. THE ART IS SOFT AND I WANT TO HUG IT. 

@katieelle - is it possible for art to be so cute you want to stick it in your mouth, like the art equivalent of a tide pod

@shannondraws - anime, miraculous ladybug, overwatch, video games, ALL VERY CUTE. Also part of the TAZ animated project. Please give them money; I am too poor.

@allyssinian - so pretty?? I don’t know anything about technical words for art (fuck film school it taught me nothing useful here) but the color choices are always just so?? good?? this art will keep me safe. I can nap in it. 

@r-i-v-e-r - I don’t even care about Voltron and still follow, that’s how good the fucking arts are

@mivisdrawings - GIVE ME THOSE DELICIOUS PASTELS. 

@chiaramartinelliart - anime/SU art that GIVES ME FEELINGS and LOOKS LIKE SOME OFFICIAL MERCH OR COMICS OR SOMETHING. 

@nikoguardia - super cool animator, too cool for me even to be following probably. 

@moaang - how u animate perspective like that?? how

@aithris - lots of Steven Universe comics - amazing full color shading and character designs and backgrounds. Also: hilarious

@bigbigtruck - Have you read The Less Than Epic Adventures of TJ and Amal? No. Well do that. And also do a follow. 

@leighwortley - Amazing style. Amazing clean use of colors. Read @mothgirlcomic. 

@sakura-rose12 - artist behind @damedaffodil, a magical girl webcomic that I fucking adore and can’t wait to see more of. Has this full adorable style that I want to kiss because it looks so soft and nice. 

@azuremakes - Animator in NYC. And not just art! Also knitting! And cooking! I want to eat cake!

@amymebberson - Artist behind Pocket Princesses. You’ve probably seen them around. 

@prinnay - has a kickstarter for a kids book, you should go fund it now! Her art makes me feel like I’m in outer space with fairies. SO MANY COLORS. 

@elucile - just fucking makes the most devastating amazing Sailor Moon fan animations and the like?? Goes off like they haven’t destroyed me?? I love them and their animation. Gosh. 

@troffie - Katie Mitroff, Steven Universe animator. ART.

@thisistab - Tab Is Beautiful. I can tell from the art, which is also beautiful. 

@tipsycanadian - Tipsy is my friend and also an actual animator in Canada and ALSO DRAWS THE CUTEST FUCKING SHIT ASLDKFJASKDJFALS I DIE. I. DIE. 

@crystalnyam - I found out about Brigitta Rena when I was playing video games with a friend for the independent game awards (so he could vote properly) and we played this game that was??? so pretty??? and I was like “WHO THE FUCK DREW THIS” and the answer was Brigitta so anyway that’s some good art there. Please go stick your eyes on it. 

@stardustinjune - I worry that this far down the list you’ve stopped paying attention and that would be a travesty because then you’d miss all these GOOD TAZ FEELINGS from ACTUALLY FUCKING STUPENDOUS ART. 

@buffycake - Look at this Star vs the Forces of Evil opening done in the style of Ranma 1/2. This is everything I ever needed out of life. It’s so fucking good.

@azurecomics - Sailor Moon, Pokemon, magical girls. Listen, am I a weeb? Yes. Am I ashamed? No. Is this art fucking A+++? YES. 

@thirdchildart - if you aren’t following Megan yet what even are you doing on the tumblrs. Remember that fucking amazing TAZ Balance trailer?? YEAH. 

@storyofthedoor - Self-described “Sailor Moon Trash Heap” has not met me, but does give more to the fandom than I ever could. SUCH GOOD ART. I love the style of the faces?? So good?? So many feelings? The Reinako comic slays me. 

@ellielotusart - COLORS I WANT TO LIVE MY LIFE IN. 

I am 1000000% forgetting many lovely people. ART. ART IS SO GOOD AND IMPORTANT. 

Anyway. That should be a jumping off point for you. Lemme know if you have anything more specific you’re looking for!
