If we interact, please read this!
Starting today I will be moving things for this character over to @myexistenceisscience. It’s going to be a lot easier for me to just have all of my Voltron characters on one blog. I will still have this up as an archive until I’m able to switch all of my pages to that blog.
Should I merge this blog with myexistenceisscience?
I’m really indecisive about it. I’ve had issues in the past with OC and canon multimuse. The OCs often get ignored or one is favored over another and won’t get interaction.
Any thoughts?
I might just turn that open starter into a fic. I really wanna do that storyline.
“My battery is low and it is getting dark” is the Mars Rover version of “I don’t feel so good, Mr. Stark.”
I’m emotionally compromised by both.
gosh but like we spent hundreds of years looking up at the stars and wondering “is there anybody out there” and hoping and guessing and imagining
because we as a species were so lonely and we wanted friends so bad, we wanted to meet other species and we wanted to talk to them and we wanted to learn from them and to stop being the only people in the universe
and we started realizing that things were maybe not going so good for us— we got scared that we were going to blow each other up, we got scared that we were going to break our planet permanently, we got scared that in a hundred years we were all going to be dead and gone and even if there were other people out there, we’d never get to meet them
and then
we built robots?
and we gave them names and we gave them brains made out of silicon and we pretended they were people and we told them hey you wanna go exploring, and of course they did, because we had made them in our own image
and maybe in a hundred years we won’t be around any more, maybe yeah the planet will be a mess and we’ll all be dead, and if other people come from the stars we won’t be around to meet them and say hi! how are you! we’re people, too! you’re not alone any more!, maybe we’ll be gone
but we built robots, who have beat-up hulls and metal brains, and who have names; and if the other people come and say, who were these people? what were they like?
the robots can say, when they made us, they called us discovery; they called us curiosity; they called us explorer; they called us spirit. they must have thought that was important.
and they told us to tell you hello.

No Way Out // Open
Cadet Hayley Collins, please report to the conference room for assignment from Commander Iverson.
Hayley looked to the ceiling with a frown. Assignment? Why wasn’t her team called? They had never called any of the MFE team alone. Unless the team was already there. And what assignment was so important that they would pull her away from weapons training?
It took little time for the cadet to adjust her uniform and make her way to the main conference room. Inside were several of the Garrison commanders, a few members of the Atlas crew, the Paladins of Voltron, and her own teammates. She saluted upon entry before moving to stand at the end of the conference table.
“Now that Collins is present, I have something to show all of you.” Commander Iverson brought a video of a Galra base on the screens in the conference room. It seemed nearly as big as the Garrison itself with a large particle barrier around it. “This is the enemy base located in a mountain range. It happens to be in a nearly uninhabited area which is good news for this mission.”
That sounded a bit worrisome. Hopefully that just meant he was glad no civilians would get caught in the crossfire. But Hayley knew that was too good to be true. “What is the mission, sir?”
The commander smiled and pulled up a holographic representation of a bomb. It was small but it was labeled as a highly radioactive weapon. “Your mission is to use stealth to get past the barrier and plant this bomb as deep into that thing as deep in as you can get.”
“Just the MFEs?”
“No, Cadet. Just you.”
Hey, remember that time, in the episode with the shielding station, where they’re showing Pidge or someone on screen, and you can just hear Shiro, like, groaning into the comms? And they’re like - are you ok? And he’s like, yeah, totally ok here, and then everyone’s like ok we believe you. But meanwhile Shiro’s still kind of losing it. Right up in the comms, like they can all hear it, come ON.
And then, later, he loses it and freaks out on Pidge, and nearly gets them all killed when he fucks up the Galra tech thing, whatever it was? But Pidge just, like powers through, and manhandles him back over to the console thing. And afterwards he’s like it’s cool- I’m fine. And everyone’s like OK. But OBVIOUSLY he is NOT FINE. And then he loses it! AGAIN! RIGHT UP IN THE FUCKING COMMS, FOR EVERYONE TO HEAR, JUST FUCKING- FUCKING- GROANING AND CRYING OUT AND THEN. NO ONE. EVER. MENTIONS IT.
We need less Team Voltron and more Team Get Shiro Some Fucking Therapy you DUMB CHUCKLE FUCKS.
BACK THEN, I WASN’T A GOOD PERSON, too skinless & heartless to manage anything else. i didn’t wanna know what my love looked like from the outside. left it shivering in the cold until it was raw. read a story where a man killed someone because of how the SUN MADE HIM FEEL & could almost understand it. so i kept living. thought i could survive anything & i was afraid of nothing but the dark. i made myself elysian. transcendent but not pure. more like a pillar of smoke rising up to choke the sharp dawn. i’m looking for providence. it always comes back to the light & ALL THE WAYS I USED TO LOVE & all the ways i can’t anymore.
Awkward Valentine's Day/Date Starters
“So…I can’t afford Netflix, but we can Redbox and chill if you want?”
“Roses were sold out everywhere, so I got you a bucket of chicken instead.”
“The date was great! Well … until we got to his apartment where his dog kept trying to hump me.”
“Every year I tell you the same thing; I don’t like white chocolate!!”
“Not only did he take me to McDonalds for Valentine’s, he used coupons to pay for it.”
“All the stores were sold out of condoms…”
“I think there was something wrong with the food because I don’t feel so good.”
“We need to cut this date short because I’m going to shit myself.”
“PLEASE tell me your credit card did NOT just get declined.”
“What do you mean you’re in labor, the baby’s not due for another month and these tickets weren’t cheap!!”
“Did you get any of those rose petals stuck between your ass cheeks?”
“Are you okay?! I swear I didn’t mean to pop the cork into your face!”
“He not only showed up to our date wasted, but broke a $200 bottle of champagne over his head.”
“So not exactly the surprise you were hoping for, but we’re having a baby.”
“There weren’t any nuts in those chocolates were there?”
“I think I’d rather have been home alone with a pint of ice cream than to have come out on this date with you tonight.”
“I’m sorry my overwhelming libido put you in the hospital.”
“I’m sorry, I can’t help it; I’m lactose intolerant.”
“I can’t drink any champagne because … I might be pregnant.”
“He asked if he could ‘lick my pussy’ and I told him I didn’t have a cat.”
“Quick, call 911; the stove’s on fire.”
“Wait, if you don’t have a car, how are you taking me out then?”
“I don’t think drizzling chocolate on the bed was a very good idea … ”
“I’d kiss you but there were red onions in my dish … ”
“Either I’ve got food poisoning or the baby’s coming.”
“I wanted to propose to you tonight but I think our waitress … kinda stole the ring.”
“I know spending Valentine’s in the hospital isn’t very romantic, but I can’t tell you how happy I am that you stayed.”
“So, um, I don’t think we can have sex tonight. I just got my period.”
“If you’re going to fart in my car, at least give me a warning next time.”
“My/Your dress totally ripped up the back and now my/your ass is hanging out.”
“We weren’t even ten minutes into our date before he pulled his dick out and started jerking it under the table!!”
“I don’t mean to be rude, but did you brush your teeth with garlic or something?! The smell is overwhelming.”
“Not only was he/she late to our Skype date, but I could see his/her side guy/chick in his/her bed in the background!”
“Well, being handcuffed and arrested certainly made the date exciting.”
“No, we’re going to have to cancel our reservations, I can’t find a sitter.”
“Even though I peed myself in the middle of our date, we still had a good time.”
“Well, I had bought you a really nice Valentine’s gift, but one of the kids thought it’d be funny to flush it down the toilet.”
“I’m the master of the microwave.”
“Oh. Um, they must have mixed up our plates. That ring isn’t for you.”
“I was so nervous for the date, I forgot to put deodorant on. That might be why they haven’t called me in a few days.”
“If you’re expecting an engagement ring tonight, then I’ve got bad news for you.”
“He tied me to the bed, told me to call him daddy, and next thing I know, he’s face down between my legs, snoring.”

The Opportunity to Rove on Mars! 🔴
Today, we’re expressing gratitude for the opportunity to rove on Mars (#ThanksOppy) as we mark the completion of a successful mission that exceeded our expectations.
Our Opportunity Rover’s last communication with Earth was received on June 10, 2018, as a planet-wide dust storm blanketed the solar-powered rover’s location on the western rim of Perseverance Valley, eventually blocking out so much sunlight that the rover could no longer charge its batteries. Although the skies over Perseverance cleared, the rover did not respond to a final communication attempt on Feb. 12, 2019.
As the rover’s mission comes to an end, here are a few things to know about its opportunity to explore the Red Planet.
90 days turned into 15 years!
Opportunity launched on July 7, 2003 and landed on Mars on Jan. 24, 2004 for a planned mission of 90 Martian days, which is equivalent to 92.4 Earth days. While we did not expect the golf-cart-sized rover to survive through a Martian winter, Opportunity defied all odds as a 90-day mission turned into 15 years!
The Opportunity caught its own silhouette in this late-afternoon image taken in March 2014 by the rover’s rear hazard avoidance camera. This camera is mounted low on the rover and has a wide-angle lens.
Opportunity Set Out-Of-This-World Records
Opportunity’s achievements, including confirmation water once flowed on Mars. Opportunity was, by far, the longest-lasting lander on Mars. Besides endurance, the six-wheeled rover set a roaming record of 28 miles.
This chart illustrates comparisons among the distances driven by various wheeled vehicles on the surface of Earth’s moon and Mars. Opportunity holds the off-Earth roving distance record after accruing 28.06 miles (45.16 kilometers) of driving on Mars.
It’s Just Like Having a Geologist on Mars
Opportunity was created to be the mechanical equivalent of a geologist walking from place to place on the Red Planet. Its mast-mounted cameras are 5 feet high and provided 360-degree two-eyed, human-like views of the terrain. The robotic arm moved like a human arm with an elbow and wrist, and can place instruments directly up against rock and soil targets of interest. The mechanical “hand” of the arm holds a microscopic camera that served the same purpose as a geologist’s handheld magnifying lens.
There’s Lots to See on Mars
After an airbag-protected landing craft settled onto the Red Planet’s surface and opened, Opportunity rolled out to take panoramic images. These images gave scientists the information they need to select promising geological targets that tell part of the story of water in Mars’ past. Since landing in 2004, Opportunity has captured more than 200,000 images. Take a look in this photo gallery.
From its perch high on a ridge, the Opportunity rover recorded this image on March 31, 2016 of a Martian dust devil twisting through the valley below. The view looks back at the rover’s tracks leading up the north-facing slope of “Knudsen Ridge,” which forms part of the southern edge of “Marathon Valley
There Was Once Water on Mars?!
Among the mission’s scientific goals was to search for and characterize a wide range of rocks and soils for clues to past water activity on Mars. In its time on the Red Planet, Opportunity discovered small spheres of the mineral hematite, which typically forms in water. In addition to these spheres that a scientist nicknamed “blueberries,” the rover also found signs of liquid water flowing across the surface in the past: brightly colored veins of the mineral gypsum in rocks, for instance, which indicated water flowing through underground fractures.
The small spheres on the Martian surface in this close-up image are near Fram Crater, visited by the Opportunity rover in April 2004.
