Unfortunately, the Pidge Angst Bang will not be happening this year. We had a pretty small group last time and both mods have been fairly busy with other things. There is always hope for next year if there's enough reason to think people would want it, though!
As a side note, just because this bang isn't happening doesn't mean that you can't still get involved in a fandom event! Things have settled down in the fandom the last couple of years, but there's still zines, bangs, and challenges around if you look around enough. And if you find that none of those catch your interest, there's almost always an artist or author out there who would be super flattered if you asked to trade fic/art with them. It's not quite the same as a bang of course, but it's an easy way to still get that partner connection.
Thank you for your interest and we wish you the best!
The Pidge Angst Bang 2021 has officially come to an end! All bangs are officially up, so please use this page as a tool to go visit everyone’s wonderful work and give them the comments, likes, and shares they deserve! Congratulations to everyone who participated!

Summary: After liberating a planet from the Galra’s control, the paladins attend a feast on-planet to celebrate, as well as for coalition business. However, there’s more to the planet than meets the eye, specifically its inhabitants. Soon after Allura and Shiro disappear to organise joining the coalition with the king, things start getting weird. Each paladin is thrust into their own nightmares and worst fears, the main obstacle keeping them back from saving their friends and fleeing the planet.Â
It seems, however, that there may be more friends on this horrific planet than originally thought.

Summary: As a Resident planning to go into Cardiothoracic Surgery, Pidge thought all they would have to worry about was learning how to perfect the art of surgery. They were raised to feel at home in an Operating Room but life outside is more complex then just fixing hearts. Having a baby almost kills Romelle and makes it almost impossible for Pidge to talk to her. Matt’s relationship seems to be falling apart and despite Pidge’s need to try and help fix things only leads to more screaming and crying. Pidge keeps their distance from their love and hopes that in the end they will be able to fix it. Time heals all wounds, right?
Summary: Lance dies during a mission on a labor planet and, despite Allura’s efforts, is unable to be revived. With the other paladins already looking for a new blue paladin, and Allura and Lotor becoming engaged, Pidge feels alone in her grief and lost love. Strange things start to happen around Pidge—she’s always cold, memories dance in her head when she dreams. Could it be Lance, trying to contact her? Or just figments of her imagination?

Summary: During the journey back to Earth in season seven, Pidge runs into a dead end searching for Voltron’s allies. She instead becomes the unwilling guest of a space mob boss, who is eager to use a Paladin of Voltron to promote his new casino. As the grand prize of a fighting tournament.

Summary: She learned fast that it was almost impossible to distract Matt when his soulmate was sending music his way. At best, the most she would get for her efforts would be a mindless hug, at worst, her brother’s attention, paired with the most pitiful kicked puppy eyes looking her way It was strange, and sometimes she couldn’t help but indulge in the pang of jealousy directed at her brother’s faceless partner, who could bring those special, soft smiles to his face so easily. Smiles that she thought were reserved for her alone. After all, Matt had been her best friend first. And then, mere days after her twelfth birthday… Pidge got her own First Connection.” Pidge has a soulmate. Well, every human has one. But this is something that’s been a steady comfort in Pidge’s turbulent life. She has a soulmate. Someone who is meant to be perfect for her. Someone who she can’t wait to meet. But there’s a ten-thousand years old war going on and she’s smack in the middle of it. So, she has to put anything that isn’t ending the war and saving the universe on hold for a while. No worries. She’s young, she has time. But there’s no warning before a swan sings for the last time.
