Hey, Voltron fandom :
Any Ship You Want Canon… Is Canon
The ending was actually rather vague
Hear me out
All we see is the BIG PICTURE of what the Paladins did
Pidge and the Holts work to make a Voltron Force thing. But without Voltron (ofc). Like, a galactic defender space program
Hunk and his team of awesome side characters become gourmet chefs to the Galactic Coalition
Keith turns the BOM into a relief organization
Shiro gets married to Curtis
Lance helps his family out on a farm (and Kaltenecker has cow babies)
Now
Other than Shiro and Hunk, who have confirmed (or pretty obvious) partners, Curtis and Shay
The other three Paladins don’t actually have a confirmation of relationship
It only shows us what happens about 3 to 4 years after the Voltron Lions leave Altea
That makes the oldest Paladin (Keith) only, at most, 26
Lance and Hunk would be 23
Pidge would be 21 (yay she can drink now!)
Even in Earth terms (plus three years), neither are over the age of 30
So!
They have their ENTIRE life ahead of them
Nothing is to say that Lance and Pidge don’t end up together
Or Pidge and Keith
Or Keith and Lance
Or maybe
Keith and Acxa
Or Lance and Romelle
Or Pidge and Veronica
Or Keith and Veronica
LITERALLY NOT ONE SINGLE PAIRING IS A CONFIRMED ENDGAME EXCEPT FOR HUNAY AND SHIRO X CURTIS (AND MAYBE LOTURA)
(I say Lotura because they’re in the cosmic cloud at the very end)
So, yes, allurance was the dominant relationship in s8
But ANYTHING is canon after the show ends
It’s all up to interpretation
Do Lance, the Cuban boy who adopted a cow from the mall and yee-haw, southerner descendant half galra Keith live happily ever after?
Maybe
Do Pidge and Lance raise Chip as their own and grow plants?
Maybe
Does Veronica get that date with Keith?
Or does Axca spend her days with the one with the flippity hair?
Nobody knows
Because nothing was set in stone
My point is
Stop fighting over ships
When you can headcanon anything to be canon and it will be
You can’t be proven otherwise
There’s nothing to prove you wrong
Only the limit of your imagination can stop you
