Why do you think shiro moved to the green lion?
ok. you’re takashi shirogane. you’ve been a clone for several months and also simultaneously living inside the consciousness of a black lion where your only interaction was a feeble attempt to reach your best friend before said best friend literally disappears from all of your lives. he comes back and he’s two years older and fucking hot as hell. abs? pecs? hot mom? you are screwed. you get brainwashed. boy takes on a fleet of cruisers and then follows you into literal death, fights you, gets permanently scarred, saves your life somehow anyway.
so you wake up and he’s there. he’s like. your rock. your everything. you fall asleep on him and when you wake up again it’s to his voice begging you not to die. he leans down, pauses, and then presses his face into your neck for a hug. you’re internally dying. this is so much. you’ve come back from death maybe four times now all thanks to this suddenly hot as fuck funky alien boy and then you get stuck in the lion whose consciousness you possessed along with his mother and the team’s collective father figure.
shiro spends one night bunking with keith while krolia and coran sleep one bed over and dies all over again.
anyway obviously there just was more room in the green lion’s cargo bay.
Instead of allowing Shamus Kelley to get undeserved exposure by promoting his queerbait-y articles, here is an excellent article about actual representation in Voltron.
- An Analysis of Voltron’s Princess Allura and the positive impact she has on young kids, specifically dark-skinned girls
- Lauren Montgomery and Joaquim DosSantos on VLD Pidge & female representation “I wanted more female representation on the team for sure – everyone wanted it. Dreamworks wanted it. Nobody was really setting out to make a show with nothing but guys in it.”
- Voltron is defending diversity with a re-imagined Princess Allura: Kimberly Brooks talks about ‘welling up’ when she first saw Princess Allura’s new character design
- ‘Opening doors’ through diverse casting: Post-Season 3 interview with Kimberly Brooks about Allura’s significant new role
- Lauren and Joaquim about their approach to a more diverse, multi-ethical cast “…for the sake of making a more diverse team, we opted to use [Sven’s] original GoLion name, Takashi Shirogane.”
Keith: The stars are so beautiful tonight
Shiro: Yeah…
Every star in the sky: Just kiss already
“It’s affection always,
You’re gonna see it someday
My attention’s on you
Even if it’s not what you need.
I think of you, I want you too, I’d fall for you
It’s affection always…” –Affection, Cigarettes After Sex (x)
Welcome back, sun! 🌻
Literally didn’t occur to me this is yet another selfie with Shiro drawing until I was done. Oh well.
