ya’ll i was telling chip the other day. i’ve been on tumblr for over five years now. i have /always/ had a young justice or kpop-related icon. and even then i only had one kpop icon, 97% of the time it’s been zatanna from yj.
buT NOT ANYMORE HOHOHOHOHO. i lov this little side chara. bring her back. pls. pls. she would trample all over fuckboy lance and i desperately need this in my life.
💝as in SHAY because you are toller than me and beautiful and kind and determined and brave and the place you live produces lovely awesome things (that are far more delicious but humor me here)
Awwwwww. Omg, Chip, this is too sweet! I’m not worthy of such a beautiful comparison and such high compliments. ♡♡
Send me anask with an emoji to tell me which voltron character you think I’m most like.
It’s 3:40 here and I’m way too hyped up to sleep, and the reason is VOLTRON!
@chipofmintchocolate You wanted to know how far along I am with the series (I’ll reply to the rest of your message after some sleep btw), well... I basically watched episodes 6-11 in one big swoop and finished just now.
WHAT WAS THAT CLIFFHANGER??!! :O
AND ZARKON IS THE ORIGINAL BLACK PALADIN?!
AND KEITH MIGHT BE GALRACIAN? (Is that the right term?) Which is not far-fetched since he discovered he was Arusian in Voltron Force, so I thought he’d be alien somehow in this adaptation as well.
IS THACE HIS FATHER THEN SINCE HE LOWERED THE BARRIER??
I’m honestly so happy that S2 is coming out later this week, because I am so addicted now! I’ll probably even rewatch S1 and continue posting my thoughts like I did with the first three episodes.
PS: I ship everything on this show, but my favourites thus far are Keith/Shiro/Allura OT3 (I ship all the combinations of those three so much, but in this adaptation I think I like Sheith the most) and Hunk/Lance. Hunk/Shay is adorable too! I understand the appeal of Klance and I do like them, but I’m personally not feeling that one as much as the others.
(Putting my answer under a read more as it became a tl;dr love rant on voltron shipping, haha.)
@chipofmintchocolate replied to your post:
Bb I’m so proud of you!!!! Way to power through it in a night of passion haha. Let’s talk theories when I’m more awake. And it’s okay I’m weak for fire+ice pairings in general so I was made to be Klance trash; not everyone is as trashy 😆
Thank you! ♥ *takes a bow* Yes, it was a night of passion, haha. I continued watching ep6 and I just couldn’t stop, I had to watch them all so I did.
Yes, I want to talk theories!!
Sorry, I think I phrased what I wanted to say wrong. (It was almost 4am after all. I edited it in the post.) But I do like Klance, I just expected to like them more than I actually do? I saw all those Klance posts on my dash before watching VLD, and granted I shipped them a little in Voltron Force as I liked their bantering (though I was much more a fan of Kallura and Hidge in that adaptation), so I was so certain I was going to hardcore ship them since I love my ships that have a strong trusting bond at its core but who do like to challenge each other through banter. But so far there was too much of just the bickering (and yes saving each other), but not so much actual casual bonding? Maybe we’d get that with the shirtless scene in S2? Omg, I would so love that. :D And I’m sure if I get to see more of that, I would in fact end up adoring them.
That said, I do think Sheith is my most favourite ship. I just love the fact that they have a history that hasn’t been told yet (since Keith knew Shiro personally already in the first episode) and I absolutely love that they trust each other so much and that they wordlessly work together so well. Plus there is the potential for many angst plot with their Galran connection. This ship really hits an awful lot of my likes.
And there are the space parents. I love Shallura as well. They have so much in common. They are both so focused and determined, but still so emphatic and kind. I also love that they instantly trusted each other’s leadership capabilities. Plus can you imagine the banter with them? I do and I love it!
I know you’re not into this ship, but I like Kallura as well hence me ot3ing Shiro/Keith/Allura so much right now. While I didn’t like Voltron Force much (those bratty cadets were annoying af), there were redeeming factors and Kallura was most definitely one of them. I loved how obvious it was that they loved each other, but how they kept it to themselves because of their duty and responsibility. They always watched over each other, even on missions without jeopardising it. They also always confided in each other about anything, because they understood each other and were the perfect person for each other to turn to make an important decision, etc. And then there was the fact that Keith, mister mission, wanted to step down as Voltron’s leader to be with Allura. Ugh, I loved that ship more than the show itself. In Voltron Legendary Defender, however, they had some nice scenes in the first few episodes. I especially loved that scene when they both returned to the Castle to help Shiro and Pidge fight against Sendak and when Allura screamed, “Keith, now!”, he knew immediately, without any further directions, what to do. That scene reminded me of the ship I loved in the previous adaptations. However, it dwindled a bit after the Balmera arc? Keith was willing to leave Allura behind, something he’d never do in Voltron Force (and I’m sure in Defender of the Universe neither, but I haven’t watched that one completely yet). Anyhow, if the creators do decide on making them canon (as they are the canon ship of the franchise), I’ll be very curious as to how they’ll handle that. So yeah, despite them not having so many scenes (besides from standing next to each other an awful lot), I can’t help but still ship them.
Oh Hance, my Hance. I never expected to like this ship as much I do. They’re total besties, they are so comfortable around each other and they’d have such a loving, understanding relationship with (lbr) the most random fun conversations.
Shaynk was so adorable, hands down, no one can dispute this. They helped each other so much. They both helped each other into seeing the bigger picture. Hunk really grew as a person and as a palladin because of her.
Lastly there is Hidge, which I also shipped on Voltron Force because they’re dynamic was so fun and interesting to watch. Pidge being a technical genius and Hunk being a mechanical genius, along with their fun-loving personalities, completed each other so nicely. I’m not really feeling it on VLD (yet?), but I loved seeing their friendship, especially in the “Venom Crystal” episode.
LONG RANT SHORT: I LOVE AND SHIP EVERYONE IN THIS SPACE BAR!
