An attempt to fix Shiroās ending
Ā Shiro was my favorite character in Voltron and deserved a better ending than marrying some faceless npc whose name I cannot remember.
While I personally ship him with Allura, if Dreamworks was going to give him a male love interest the obvious answer is Matt Holt. Someone who wouldnāt start any age debates, has been established outside of being Shiroās love interest, and both Shiro and the audience know and care about.
To kick things off Matt would have to be on earth for season 7, I imagine him walking up behind Shiro while heās looking at Adamās nameplate, and the scene would go something like this.
Ā ā I know you loved him. Iām sorry you never got to see him againā
ā Thereās nothing left, no family, no friends, no lovers, not even possessions. And I can feel the team drifting further away every day. I⦠thereās just nothing left.ā
ā Come on, donāt talk like that. Youāll always be welcome with the Holts. Mom and Dad adore you, and I can tell Katie looks up to you. Besides, you sacrificed yourself to save me from the arena. Thereās no way Iām letting you become some sort of lonely hermit.ā
ā Heh, of course notā
ā Thatās the spirit. And hey, maybe when this is all over we can finally do what we always wanted to. Explore the galaxy and go where no human has gone before. Iāve seen some amazing stuff out there but I never actually got to just take it in, yāknow? Because-ā
ā Because thereās no time to play tourist when thereās a war going on and lives are depending on youā
ā Getting to just explore once this is all over, we come do humanitarian aid missions and play tourist on the sideā
ā Itās a plan then. You and me, once the war ends, exploring the galaxy and helping people along the wayā
āāāāāāāāāāāāāāāāāāāāāāāāā
Throughout the rest of the show weād have little scenes of them spending time together, maybe a quick kiss in the heat of battle. Matt would end up working on the Atlas with Shiro to give them more time together. And the final image weād be given of them would be the two of them posing in front of a dramatic alien landscape with an alien child theyād adopted. It may not be as overt as a wedding, but I feel it would fit them better.
