A lot of people are asking about timing for when the show comes out and I haven’t answered because I don’t know 100%! I know it comes out on the 14th at midnight pacific time and am not sure if that midnight is regional or specific to PST - sorry about that!

Season eight better open with the paladins waking up from cryopods and someone being like “you will not believe the dream I had” and just make season seven a drug trip or something

“voltron walked so bubbline could run” you morons voltron pulled out its own gun at the starting line, shot itself in the foot and proceeded to tell all of its fans to shut up and that ITS WAR, PEOPLE DIE, EVEN THE GAYS while bubbline has been riding on a motorcycle for 8 goddamn years popping wheelies and jumping over buses and shit

[its-raining-cats]

Korrasami fired the starting gun, rupphire sprinted to the finish, bubbline kept a steady pace and it took a while but damn if it didn’t get there, voltron tripped at the starting line and then whined about how they should rerun the race because “it was the audiences fault they tripped.”

[jadedlunarmoth]

Voltron talked about how amazing they were gonna be at the race and how they’ed win. They publicised how they were running the race everywhere purely to get attention and money from their supporters but never actually planned to run in the race. They showed up for more money and attention but tripped their first step and just straight up left the track and blamed their supporters for thinking they’ed actually care about the race or do it and that their anger is all their own fault. And they also did all this while insulting their supporters and the race itself.

It’s November 2018. I’ve just watched the last episode of Voltron. None of our ships were canon. The screen fades to black. Netflix recommends I watch watch Troll Hunters next. I grip my Capri Sun tightly in my hand. Tears stream down my face. “Klance is canon king” I whisper softly into the void.

[she-ra-but-gay-deactivated20200]

It’s December 2018, a month after Voltron has ended. I see red and blue markers next to each other in class and scream. “It was supposed to be,” I say, tears streaming down my face. “…it was supposed to be…”

I fall to the ground, shaking.

[wench-on-a-bench]

It’s August 2088, years after Voltron has ended. My son, Klance, has brought his kids over to visit. My grandchildren, Laith, Thunderpike and Yorance gather round and ask me to tell them their favorite story, the story of how they got their names. I start my tale but get choked up. They all wait patiently and rub my back as I violently sob. They know this is hard for me. It’s hard for all of us. 

[she-ra-but-gay-deactivated20200]

It’s February 2520. It’s been a decade since the last galactic war. Politicians need to defend their case as to why Earth should be spared from annihilation. They need events from the past. My body has been dug up and restored. They ask me about the past presidents, our achievements, and past Nobel Peace prize winners. I can’t answer them. I am shaking as they try to pry out answers, but I can’t get the image out of my head. They ask me why I won’t respond and I cry.

“Keef…” my tongue is slow, I can barely move it. “Lance…”

“KEITH AND LANCE, WRITE THAT DOWN,” the scientist yells. “Who were Keith and Lance?”

“…not…….gay.”

“What?”

“They weren’t gay,” a sudden fire rushes over me. “They were there. They were supposed to be together.” I shake vigorously, but no longer in fear. I am angry, and I grip the scientist’s hand. “Where are my children?”

The scientist is trying to pull away, baffled. “O-our records say you didn’t have children…”

“I KNOW that. I need to see Keith and Lance.”

“Who are Keith and Lance?” another scientist tries to calm me. “Describe them.”

I rack my brain. What did I call them again? “They were….”

“Yes?”

“A good team… they were soulmates… they were my otp… they were…. they were……”

“Take your time.”

“Canon king.”

“Oh no…” The scientist’s eyes widen. I am strapped down, and start struggling against my constraints. “Call the president…”

I hear this and panic, multiple officials leave the room in a frenzy and I struggle harder. My constraints loosen. I can finally run, and bolt for the window. I jump out, hearing alarms blare out sirens behind me. I am free.

It’s July 4923, the earth has died and all it’s natural resources have been depleted. The last surviving human crawls his way across the wasteland. He comes across a red and blue shell sticking out amongst the rubble. “K…Klance” he rasps out with his last breath. He promptly dies. 

The last words for the last human, for even at the end of the wold, klance truly is endgame

A Brief History of LGBT+ Characters and Why the Death of Adam in Voltron is Worth Being Upset About

So uh…. Good morning.

So I think it’s pretty obvious by now that the reception to season 7 has been less than… good. The fan base has been shattered. People are upset, angry, and abandoning this series in droves (I’ve lost over 50 followers as I write this, just from people no longer wanting anything to do with this show) and have been incredibly vocal as to the reason why.

They killed Adam. 

After two weeks of receiving praise for the relationship that was revealed at San Diego Comic Con, fans discovered on Friday night that Adam’s existence would be short lived, further contributing to this popular “Bury Your Gays” trope. 

And I’ve seen people confused at this outcry. They don’t understand why people are so upset at this tiny side character’s death. What’s the big deal, right? It’s war! There’s supposed to be casualties!

And to that kind of response I have to narrow my eyes and go:

“Oh…. maybe you understand the history of this.”

Because it is a history. A rich one. “Bury your gays” isn’t a trope in the same why that “Fake dating” is a trope. It’s not popular out of coincidence and I feel like many people are ignorant of that, which is FAIR! Because most voltron fans are young, most tumblr users are young, so I don’t expect you to be watching documentaries on LGBT+ cinema in between studying for your chemistry exams. 

So that’s where I come in. Buckle in children as I take you on a journey on why the “Bury your gays” trope exists, and the harmful ramifications that it has had on the LGBT+ community since its inception.
