18 for the whole team. I'd like to know your thoughts.... (sits in front of you with a notepad and pencil) owo
VERY good question arbor. class is in session
18. what they’d go to see a therapist about
(this quickly turned into what the team is like in therapy as well. but i love talking so <3)
the entire team would obviously be in therapy about. the intergalactic war they were on the front lines of. that goes without saying but i’m saying it anyway
shiro: not just the PTSD but how he’s so nonchalant about it. he goes into his first session like “yeah. i think i have PTSD? like i’m not a professional i’m not gonna definitively say i do but… (describes how often he gets panic attacks and how distressing they are in detail)” and the therapist is like “😀… okay. do you wanna talk about what happened? it’s okay if you don’t it might be difficult to recall”
meanwhile shiro’s like “oh yeah! i was kidnapped and forced to fight to the death in a gladiator ring for a year. then i had to lead a team of teenagers in a war against a ten thousand year old empire. just the seven of us against an entire militia :|-)” and the therapist is already pulling out all of her books on post traumatic stress like “uh huh uh huh uh huh continue”
keith: getting keith to actually participate in therapy in a meaningful way is gonna be like trying to pull teeth. and once he’s in there it’s gonna be boring conversations about his day where his therapist sneakily gets him to open up about his past. you ever see in the office when micheal goes to therapy with toby? it’s like that.
but when keith starts actually opening up he forms a ride or die bond with his therapist and is the only person he talks to so openly about his abandonment issues. he’s just on the couch crying his eyes out like “diane… you’re the realest bitch i’ve ever met.” and diane is like “thanks keith. you’re real as hell too. i can tell the people in your life really love you” and thus a new person gains keith as a purse dog
pidge: she definitely needs to learn how to be more open with her affection. stems from repeated loss like keith and like keith her response is to be more guarded. but rather than be closed off and a loner she snaps at people and is aggressive to people before they can be aggressive to her #bulliedgang ✌️ but as she’s grown closer to the team her jabs are more lovingly said, though still she’s scared to openly admit she loves people because ew affection she’s gonna get shoved in a locker!!!!
her approach to getting into therapy is very similar to keith in terms of “fuck that i’m perfectly fine” but she lets her walls down a lot quicker because she didn’t lose quite as much as keith #hasamom
lance: i know i said the post war therapy goes without saying but he’d be processing the war so much more than the others. his personal issues are an afterthought when he’s dealing with “omg i KILLED someone diane what do i tell their family?” also he doesn’t like talking about himself in terms of “i’ve had issues my whole life and need help” and makes it very apparent. it’s complicated to be in therapy and trying to better yourself when you’re convinced that you don’t deserve better things!
but once he does get to that level it’s allllll about the coping mechanisms. very much giving “no i don’t care where my self esteem issues came from how to i FIX IT?” he gets told his braggadocio stems from overcompensation for his perceived shortcomings and he’s like “YEAH? DUH???? how do i start calling myself awesome and believe myself when i say it?” also maybe once he’s processed and progressed enough he gets a bit transgender with it who knows ¯\_(ツ)_/¯
hunk: he was already considering therapy for his anxiety before the war so like. this has been needed for a WHILE. his anxiety has gotten both worse and better. worse because he’s always looking out for a surprise attack and better because he knows his limits a lot better than he did and is like “well. if that guy who looks shifty DID stab me, i’d know how to deal with that! just like on planet naenov that one time”
in therapy he asks plenty of questions about the specific limitations of doctor patient confidentiality before absolutely oversharing. diane learns more about keith in hunk’s sessions than keith’s for a while. there’s a period where hunk is more worried about how well they’re doing than his own well-being and has to keep himself from breaking THEIR doctor patient confidentiality. there’s also him knowing she can’t and won’t share what he says so he vents about petty stuff in side tangents every five minutes
allura: “how am i supposed to be queen of an entire planet i feel bad telling pidge what to do when she’s tired” and other such questions. allura is overjoyed to have a new altea, but she’s terrified about ruling it wrong. it’s self esteem issues AND anxiety! what fun! there’s also the general grief of old altea and all she’s lost, but that comes with so much survivor’s guilt too. she knows she was raised to rule one day and believes in fate enough to trust in herself being the one to survive the war, but still. a lot on her plate.
there’s also the fact that she treats her therapy like a new religion. “you know how to fix me so i will do anything you say. i’ll kill someone for you. i’ve killed before actually, did i tell you that? i can’t not forget the life draining out of his eyes…. anyway, i’ll do whatever you say if it means no more nightmares.”
coran: he’s dealing with everything allura’s processing, plus the fact that he was her rock the entire time. he made himself available to the whole team as a shoulder to cry on, but he didn’t have anyone in return. he jumps at the chance to go to therapy because he’ll FINALLY have an outlet outside of his brain
he happy shares every detail with his therapist, but intersperses every sad memory with some of the most batshit insane stuff anyone’s ever done because they often happened one after the other. real sentences coran has said in therapy: “yes, i had killed someone long before this war. i’ve been in others, but never like this. i tell you, seeing these kids lose their innocence so quickly yet so gradually… it rocked me to my core…. but! it reminds me of when i first killed a man. funny story, actually.”
also fun fact. therapists sometimes have to go to therapy themselves for all the stuff they deal with and stories they hear from patients. diane is also in therapy; why she chose to see all seven of them, she’ll never know
ok i understand completely where you're coming from wrt shiro wouldve been to young to get guardianship. if vld followed actual logic this would be true. however. remember how they sent matt to space? that was a kid. what was up with that. ok thanks for your time new mutual and fellow lesbian (? is that your hc?) keith enjoyer. i just think it's funny to imagine a teen with legal rights over another younger teen
OH NO FOR SURE i just literally think about everything way too much. Teens i think do get guardianship sometimes but more specifically to biological siblings they're already taking care of. kind of odd if you ask me but whatever. I had to logic myself into matt testing wildly out of range like ok obviously he graduated early and qualified for 5 full years before they shot him into space like it was nothing. When the reason is obviously that it's a tv show. But that's not good enough for me. I have a mild allergic reaction to shiro legally adopting keith just because i remember how weird posts about them literally genetically or legally being brothers made me feel back in The day like the way it removes shiro's choice from his closeness to keith. Genuinely it is super sweet the idea of shiro getting guardianship it's just sosososo important to me that it was HIS CHOICE ! on purpose. Also i have overly specific ideas about his single mom with personal problems. Don't worry about it. Also yes i think she's a lesbian :) it's not as important to me as her being a girl like if she's bi thats fine or even straightgirl keith i guess i mean it sounds very weird to me but it's about being Transgender. IMO though the only characters she had thaaat much believable chemistry with were allura and hunk. and hunk is so fucking nonbinary

katie hi it's me arbor!! i drew your voltrons except coran cos i dont know if you're even making him a main character or not and also i never did know how to draw coran. sorry coran. they're mostly just wearing the same shirts but i like to think im good at faces and facial diversity and all that so thats what you should focus on. i tried to draw them as accurately as i could to ur descriptions and then what i didnt know i just stuck to how i used to draw the canon versions or i went hogwild! but anyway. these are your voltrons from ur brain. hopefully they are close to ur vision. i don't care if you post these or not but i hope u like them!!
Arbor I LOVE YOU and you’re the only person in this house who can handle me!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I LOVE THEM!!!!!!!
Literally saving these to my phone as we speak, pls imagine me as Kermit wiping away a tear because I LOVE THESE!!!!!!!!!!! You’ve NAILED them, especially the hair and I love the detail and care you put into everyone! Honestly your drawings are seriously helping me visualize everyone better bc sometimes Words Are Not Enough, thank u for your service, I owe you a blood debt. <3 <3 <3
do you usually stay up this late and are u always thinkin about car dicks when you do
yes and no. but if the exhaust pipe is visible on racing cars does that mean his dick is always out
treesbian replied to your post “I like the fact that in canon and even in everyone’s headcanons of how...”
i really like that one post with the headcanon where shiro's like "oh fuck we gotta give him so much emotional support. i think kids run on that stuff maybe" and adams like "yes takashi and we also need to feed him."
