i have a confession to make: i am still unbelievably bitter that lance lost the blorbo poll in 2023. and i smiled when the news broke that mappa had cancelled the yoi movie.

Graaaaghhhh I did not go to Tumblr for a break just to witness toxicity again. That's it. I'm scared for life from these two fandoms but I dont care anymore

If these polls had happened in like 2017 there wouldn’t be any competition. Lance would’ve won the blorbo poll after the first round. The red and blue duo poll wouldn’t have even been made because everyone knows who would’ve swupt the entire polls. How quickly we forget our roots.

i just wanted to add that lance specific angst (langst) is in the top 10 additional tags on ao3, and langst is indeed one of the most common extra things tagged under the major character death warning those fics were a PHENOMENA. i can't emphasize this enough it's like a key part of my vld fandom experience

good morning everyone. today marks exactly one year since Lance lost the blorbopoll and i am still incredibly bitter about that.

[klanced]

Lance may have not swupt the polls but he swupt our hearts and I think that still means something

i am dead serious right now i am completely flabbergasted that lance is so far behind in the blorbo poll. like at this point i’m convinced that scorned voltron enjoyers are purposefully throwing and voting for yuri out of spite/trauma.

like FIRST OF ALL lance was absolutely the poster child for voltron. he was the fandom darling and he was EVERYWHERE we brought him EVERYWHERE. he was the community little guy. you could not go five feet without seeing a pastel background lance icon. AND he was also the projection character of all time like people had to invent a brand new tagging system on ao3 just to organize their #langst whipping boy content! AND THEN the juxtaposition of the increasing flanderization of his character in canon vs the heaps and heaps of fancontent made about him??? how can we forget the fanarts! the dedicated alternate universes??! THE SHIP WARS??????

literally NOBODY else was doing it like him girlie was a different boyo every week. #LANCESWEEP
