Just A Plant

26 • she/her every time you see leaves rustling - thats me multi-fandom (i just draw what i like)

[lovesickplant]

life is beating me with a baseball bat rn but the ✨worm✨has finally given me the will to draw, more specifically on this older sketch

anyway this is like one of two OCs I had for MHA, nameless ofc but her quirk is using starlight for both offense and maneuverability. total sweetheart energy too, just a girl from the country who had big ambitions to become a hero after seeing a hero’s win by chance on tv

Sleep deprived Keith bc same

[lovesickplant]

some kid Galra Keith for the soul

Baby Keith is like 5 in this sketch. since he does have more Galran features in this AU, the ears are tail are pretty clear indicators of that, but I also imagine him with a purple complexion. more specifically, he’s got lavender “socks” on his arms and legs while the rest of him is a darker purple tone. he has claws too (sorry still refusing to draw hands) that’s kept short for the sake of safety - it’s not drawn here but wouldn’t it be funny to see his plushie all stitched up because of how many times he’s accidentally poked holes in it? sweet boy

also I feel like I remember hippos being common in the fandom for him??? so behold the hippo plushie (funny enough I actually have a lavender hippo beanie baby)

I wish I had a better name for my Galra Keith AU, but I really like the idea of Krolia being given the chance to be a mother to her son on Earth in ways that just wouldn’t have been possible in space, much less during an tens of thousands years old war.

Incoherent lore dump under the cut since I will probably never actually write anything for this <3

Do you ever wonder what it must have been like for Krolia to crash land on what is likely one of the few planets with intelligent life in the universe that hasn’t been impacted by Zarkon’s rule - and not even just that, but the people of Earth also have no idea what’s going on outside of their galaxy and don’t have nearly the same capacity in terms of tech compared to the rest of the universe to make contact with any other alien species?? All in all, sounds stressful as FUCK

I’d like to think that Krolia would definitely do everything she could at first to get back into the fight, her sense of duty to the Blade and their mission strong - but she’s seriously injured, her cruiser is wrecked, and she can’t risk exposure. There’s only so much she can do, and the pressure is on knowing that the damage her crash caused would bring unwanted attention.

Meanwhile, the mystery aircraft’s impromptu landing gave the locals plenty of cause for concern. The local fire department and other first responders were called into the site to investigate and assist where needed. Cue Tex (still can’t believe this man is referred to as TEXAS in this godforsaken fandom but I have yet to think of a different name so bear with me). His team is assigned a section to search for potential hazards or any injured, and lucky for Krolia, Tex is who finds her.

At first he’s completely shocked because something very unhappy and distinctly not human is staring right at him, but once he sees Krolia struggling with her injuries, he knows he needs to do something. He gives her what limited first aid he can provide and struggles to communicate with her while radioing back to his team to inform them that his designated area is clear. Without a translator of his own, there’s only so much he can discern from the female creature before him. She somehow seems to understand him well enough despite this however, and he feels confident to instruct her to stay hidden. All he can do is attempt to reassure her that he’ll be back once things have settled - Krolia is just clinging to fact that maybe with the human’s help she has a chance at survival.

With little findings and just scraps of the spacecraft, the rest of the humans are eventually dismissed and Tex is able to return to Krolia to get her to safety in his home, isolated from any potential prying eyes. While grateful to be alive, Krolia is still cautious and wary. It’s a longer recovery, and during this time the two keep each other company and slowly but surely build trust. They do a language exchange since Krolia is the only one with a translator, and from then their relationship really starts to develop into something more than just roommate by circumstance. They learn more about each other’s cultures, their triumphs and failures, their lives, and Krolia finds herself struck with the realization that she no longer knows where her duties lie.

Krolia starts to fall in love with Tex, with Earth, and with the fact that the war she’s been fighting for most of her life simply… does not exist here. Part of her feels guilty, and she knows that realistically the threat is still looming over their heads and no planet is without their faults. But they could be happy and free from the burdens of an intergalactic war here. Those feelings expand ten fold when she realizes she’s pregnant. This would have never been an option if Krolia remained with the Blade - bouncing from planet to planet, one mission to the next, constantly battling both enemy forces and the never ending cycle of death and grief and loss and injustice. But here on Earth, a secret dream of something more suddenly wasn’t impossible.

And so she stays. They find their little paradise where Tex can be with his family while still finding work to support them as the only human, and Krolia won’t have to fear for her and her little one’s safety. Then Keith arrives.

I’m working on a character sheet for my Galra Keith AU, and lemme tell you I’m going THROUGH it

The angles, the poses, the FACIAL EXPRESSIONS?? I’m not even really doing anything special, but before now the main things I drew were solo pieces/sketches and the female form

This is literally everything else but that :D

[lovesickplant]

Voltron?? In the year 2025?? Who am I??

Anyway tell me why it’s my first time posting my art here and it’s of KEITH MF KOGANE. Galra Keith has been consuming my mind for weeks and it will not let me rest until I’ve drawn out every single scenario in my head

I’ve been building on this little AU for a bit now where Keith was born with more Galran features, and eventually ends up leaving Earth during early childhood with Krolia to grow up in the Blade. The show definitely didn’t take advantage of Keith’s heritage so I love seeing all of the fics and art embracing and exploring what this could have looked like

I have sooo many ideas lore wise and ofc how this would change the cannon, but unfortunately I’m not much of a writer (tragic). I definitely plan to post more sketches for my take on the AU though, and dive into the details as they come up

In the meantime, enjoy the brain rot :)
