I Think I Might Make My Recent Post Two Parts Cuz Idk How To Format My Links

I think I might make my recent post two parts cuz idk how to format my links💔💔💔

Wait I have an idea. How would Allura react to seeing her past lover reincarnated and ending up on Arus with the gang once she’s woken up? Like would she realize immediately that you’re not the same person she once knew? Would she noticed how you don’t have Altean markings or how your ears are more rounded?

Or would she only focus on your familiar face and quickly jump on you, thankful that you were ok. You’re just standing there confused on why this alien princess is hugging you since you’ve never seen her in your life.

Her face falling immediately once you tell her you don’t seem to recognize her. That’s when she would start to realize her nightmare becoming a reality.

“Wait, where are your markings? And your ears, they’re different. Did you cut your hair? What happened to you?”

“I’m sorry but I don’t know what you’re talking about.”

Allura would be in denial, trying to help you remember all the memories you both once shared. Clutching onto your hands, not realizing that she’s quickly making you uncomfortable with her hysteric actions.

Only when Coran steps in to gently detach her from you will she accept this awful outcome. She wouldn’t be able to look at you for a while after your first meeting, not when you share the same face of her dead lover. And your voice. She stiffens whenever you speak, but you quickly catch onto this.

It would take a while for both of you to find some common ground as Allura would purposely distance herself from you while you do the same, not wanting her to feel uncomfortable in your presence. Coran definitely helps the princess through these times since he knows exactly what she going through.

He would try his best to remind her that you aren’t the same person they once knew. You were different and they needed to accept that. She needed to accept that.

After that, Allura would slowly begin talking to you, though she was still awkward around you. You didn’t mind though because it was still an effort she was putting in.

Even though she constantly reminded herself that you were a different person, Allura couldn’t help but notice the similar things you would do that made her mind wander to the past.

How you would pull on your left index finger when you were anxious. Or how you would begin scratching the same spot on your eyebrow when you were nervous. Or how you would twist your body from left to right when you grew bored.

It seemed as if you were the same person she once knew but hearing someone call out your name always brought her back to reality.

I think you would have a serious conversation regarding this. You would notice how Allura can’t fully allow herself to be comfortable around you and while you tried to understand, it still bothered you nonetheless.

Allura would be upfront with you, hesitantly saying that despite knowing better, she can’t help but think of you from the past. She couldn’t help but make small comparisons of what was different and what was similar between the two of you.

Seeing how you responded to this, the princess would make an even more effort to befriend you, having to finally accept you were here now, despite being a whole new person.

She would be able to read you easily, know when you were upset over something. Knows how to make you feel better too! You would feel more at easy with her too since now she was treating you more as part of the team, as her friend.

So while she does miss the person you once were before, she has grown to care for the person you are now, seeing you as your own person.💔💔

What is the real reason why Zarkon thought Lotor was weak? And why did Zarkon become power hungry after the quintessence incident?

------------------------

In this week's edition of VLD Theories I hyper fixate and overanalyze the show once again but this time I think I have something really interesting, considering the fact that we're not just talking about the inner workings of the Voltron universe but we're also discussing everyone's favorite father son duo.

-----------------------

Something that's always irked me is the cliché way Zarkon was written (and don't worry we'll get into Lotor and his relationship with Zarkon as well as childhood trauma in a moment but to get to that we have to talk about the Emperor himself). Zarkon is written as everyone's typical, immoral, emotionless, power hungry bastard and while that is essentially what a 'bad person' is it doesn't make for good writing nor does it function well with the cannonisity of the series or even its inner workings.

Let's go back to what Shiro said himself about Quintessence Corruption. Shiro stated "Zarkon fell to his own evil instincts. The quintessence field didn't create Them, it revealed them." This sentence states that the chemical itself is capable of sensing and seeping into hidden or strong desires. But here's the thing, Zarkon initially didn't desire war. He conquered planets because that's what his race had done for generations, that was until Alfor helped Zarkon to end his conquest and ally with several of his enemies (Alfor, Blaytz, Trygel, Gyrgan) then Zarkon put conquest behind him and worked on being a benevolent ruler who desired peace. Quite a switch but that still leaves the question, what changed? What made him power hungry? What ruined him? Well the answer is actually quite simple and was staring us in the face the whole time.

It was the overwhelming feeling of weakness. Weakness that came with his greatest failure, the inability to support what he loves and cares for. Namely, Honerva, Lotor, his planet, his military, his citizens, and with each day watching the things he loves grow weaker, even himself.

Zarkon watched his life grow into something spectacular and then started watching it's downfall. Even when he put stabilizers into his planet, that only slowed its collapse. He struggled to make his wife pregnant and now he was struggling to keep his son, his only child, healthy in his mother's womb. Speaking of his mother, Honerva slowly and harshly deteriorated right before Zarkon's eyes and he couldn't stop it. Because his planet was dying, he struggled to feed and support his citizens as well as provide nourishment for the soldiers whose job it was to stay healthy and protect all of Galra existence. And thusly Zarkon himself began deteriorating, His mind losing its sense of morality in favor of a stronger sense of survival. He's been weakened. Powerless to stop anything, the quintessence at this point is the only support he has. And thus the only thing he can focus on. If he can harness it, he can fix everything.

See, the quintessence didn't reveal Zarkon's evil nature, he wasn't evil to begin with. The quintessence corrupted his deepest desire. To become strong enough to support all that he cares about. To have power over all that he controls and sees. But no wish comes without a price. Power and quintessence became his biggest concerns. And turned him into what we now know as the Evil Emperor Zarkon.

------------------------

But how does this tie in with Lotor? Quite easily actually! You see a lot of what Lotor is, happens to be what Zarkon once was. Lotor had a deep seated love for existence. He indulged himself in other cultures, he respected every living being, he befriended individuals other than Galra, and he believed he could harness quintessence without destruction or disrespect to life.

But to Zarkon, that is Arrogance, Foolishness, it is Weakness beyond compare. Because he thought that way once, and it only brought Daibazaal to ruin and made him incapable of anything. But as we know, that's just Zarkon's perspective through his corrupt eyes. We, the viewers, know Lotor is right in his beliefs But his father is incapable of seeing that because of his fear, having no control over anything, no power over anything. This led Lotor and Zarkon to have an even more broken relationship than they already had, disintegrating to the point Zarkon couldn't stand his own son anymore and sent him away.

But he didn't kill Lotor. Not until 10,000 years later. Because his son was one of the things Zarkon wanted to save. Another reason why Lotor and Zarkon had an abusive relationship has to do with the Quintessence Corruption itself. Because Zarkon desired that power and control over everything, he desired it for his own son as well because if he can't control his own child then the weakness will grow again. The fear Zarkon let die along with his friends and planet will regrow and resurface. But Lotor is not the kind of person who allows himself to be forced, coerced, or manipulated so easily into obedience. Especially when it has to do with his father's sense of Value and Morality. So naturally in Zarkon's mind Lotor has become weak and as he's said before "Weakness is an infection. Better to cut it off then let it spread." We all know what happened next.

And if you need more evidence. Look no further than to Lotor's own corruption itself. Lotor was never good enough for anyone. And honestly saying that statement grossly understates Lotor's actual suffering. But it's still accurate. There are many things the prince wanted in his life. He didn't just want good parents he wanted his parents to be good. But that wasn't going to happen. He didn't just want to accept and be proud of himself he wanted people to accept and be proud of him. But that wasn't going to happen. His home quickly became nothing short of a survival situation and a place where he couldn't belong. So he decided he'd find that place himself and if he couldn't find it, then he'd create it with his own two hands. A place where he is accepted and everyone is proud of him. A place where his accomplishments and intellect matter. A place like the Altean settlement

Initially yes, I believe Lotor made this settlement to save his race. There is no denying he's always had a good heart. But sadly, he's never had a sane brain. Lotor was in Honerva's womb when she and Zarkon became corrupt and it's even stated within that show that when Galra doctors did a health read on Lotor shortly after his birth, he was giving the same quintessence readings as Zarkon and Haggar. In addition, Lotor seems to struggle with letting go of a grudge. Understandable but holding onto grudges creates emotional instability which can cause problems for your mental state. Take it from me if your angry with someone, forget the pain you felt but remember the harm that was delt. Learn it and let it hone you for further down the line in your life. Lotor, didn't do that. He wouldn't forget the rage he felt, even if he could still get revenge on his abusers if he wanted. And with his hidden desires and quintessence his parents seeped into his veins, it was only a matter of time until Lotor finally lost it.

Lotor desired a place to belong and he was going to make it happen no matter what. No matter what or who he had to sacrifice to get it. That's what the Quintessence brought out. His hidden desire for belonging. To be honest, Honerva had her desires herself. But we already understand what those are. Her desire for endless knowledge as well as control over quintessence, life itself. And we know what it made her. We've always been aware of Honerva's mind so there really wasn't a place for her in this post. This statement does exclude her actions for season 8 and that's because who she is then doesn't fit into who she once was or what were discussing.

------------------------

Zarkon became what he wanted to be but at what cost? His desire ruined everything. So did Honerva's. It tore apart the universe, it destroyed their son, it slaughtered their friends. Zarkon got the power he wanted and control over his fear, but in turn it ruined everything he built. Immoral sacrifice for absolute solace.

dating keith kogane

requested DON’T PANIC, BUT TODAY WE’RE TALKING ABOUT WHAT IT WOULD BE LIKE TO DATE KEITH KOGANE…

— firstly, i think it’s important to note that keith is terrible when it comes to romance, simply because he has zero idea what he should be doing.

opposite and equal energy to lance - keith has no idea how to flirt and at this point, he’s too proud to ask.

— one time, he tried to steal a pick up line he heard lance use, but he somehow bungled it really badly and it came us just……. wrong. 

‣ (lance will not let him live it down, and will bring it up in every viable conversation for clout reasons.)

mostly, he just looks at you from across the room and exchanges a “healthy” amount of intense eye contact.

— i hope you’re good with keith sending ~vibes~ across the dark expanse of space because that was his primary form of communication during his intense crush phase.

‣ (one time, hunk saw this exchange and was like,,,,,, ‘yo, keith, you good?’ and keith was so embarrassed he avoided you and hunk for the next three days.)

Yoga with Shiro Headcanons

I’m in school rn but I had this idea, I couldn’t WAIT💔💔 this is a more calmer post, I wanna do more Headcanons like this one teehee

Imagine doing yoga with Shiro.

You’re just wanting to let off some steam and then boom, there he is just stretching as your walking into the training deck. He would invite you to join him which you do hesitantly

Training turns into a yoga session😍

He would do complex poses while you’re in the back struggling to follow his lead

You falling over multiple times with Shiro trying to encourage you to continue

He would change his yoga plans for that day just for you so you can actually do the poses💀

Imagine Pidge is walking by and just sees you both on the floor and decides to join

Now both of you are struggling as Shiro counts the seconds you need to hold your position

“Deep breath in… And deep breath out…”

*cue both of you struggling to breath while doing a plank*

If you’re not doing one of the positions correctly, he 100% fixes that for you

Demonstrates the proper way to hold certain positions

Shiro is definitely more stressed trying to help you both keep balance than when he first began

You realizing how flexible Shiro is which causes you to compliment him, making him feel a sense of pride (yoga king <3)

One by one, everyone else slowly joins in, Lance and hunk trying to find where Pidge snuck off to, Keith walking by the training deck before hearing some laughing, and Allura not being able to find anyone in the castle before hearing a crash as she walks by the room

Now Shiro’s teaching a whole class

Keith following Shiro with ease as they both used to do yoga together on earth

Lance purposely trying to make you, Hunk, and Pidge lose balance but ends up falling himself

Allura not understanding the point of some of the weird poses you all do yet doing them all with ease

The session finally comes to an end when Lance slightly pushes you while your all balancing on one foot, making you guys fall down like dominos when you try to hold onto Pidge for balance

Shiro is the last one to go down, looking behind him before seeing Keith crash into his back

Shiro letting out the biggest laugh AHHH!!!!!!

After that day, someone is usually accompanying Shiro when he does his yoga routines :))
