Rough Klance Sketches To Get Me Through Exam Season I Breathe Them Like Air

I want to write books that cause people to make irresponsible decisions when it comes to sleep

Love In Voltron

You should always be wary of things said in interviews, but one thing I absolutely believe is when LM and JDS said that one of the biggest themes within Voltron is love. I’m not talking about shipping or anything like that, just love in general and in all its forms.

I’m going to be looking at different kinds of love, and how, as far as we’ve seen on the show, it applies to them. There’s a tiny bit of speculation in spots too, because of course there is. This gets long, so it’s going below the cut.

Keep reading

characters who are absolutely convinced down to their bones that they are unlovable being subjected to the mortifying ideal of being wholly and unconditionally loved. that’s the good stuff. never get tired of it.

‘Shiro and Keith’s Kickass Fighting Techniques’ by Lance McClain || skyestiel || Keith/Lance || T+ || 11.6k || chs. 1/1 (complete)

summary: 'And, really, it’s a pretty brilliant idea. Until Shiro’s Kickass Fighting Techniques quickly becomes Shiro and Keith’s Kickass Fighting Techniques. That’s when things start going downhill. Because soon enough, the bulleted list consists of more than just fighting techniques.’

or: Lance starts with one role model and ends up with two, a myriad of confusing emotions, and a notebook filled with condemning evidence which Hunk must never see

my notes: Really sweet and made me nostalgic for s1-era fics. Some good garrison!klance content which is my JAM. also the way it reinterprets canon scenes and blends them in with original scenes is really cool and feels so seamless. over all just super cute and funny and entertaining.

lungs || Dreamicide || Keith/Lance || T+ || 14.7k || chs. 8/8 (complete)

summary: After a near drowning experience as a child in which he doesn’t remember how he survived, Lance avoids the ocean he once loved. He doesn’t realize that’s where his savior lives.

Or: a slice-of-life story about a boy and his mermaid.

my notes: i adored this, it’s so sweet and magical! the combination of it being a childhood friends au and a mermaid au….wow i’m soft. keith and lance’s relationship is developed so well in this, and i love how it spans a long amount of time and how we get to see how the two of them change from year to year. a lot of really touching moments but also some really funny moments as well. 

Stormchasing || sinelanguage || Keith/Lance || T+ || 18k || chs. 1/1 (complete)

summary: This isn’t how Lance intended to spend his vacation, chasing after Keith’s premonitions. But here he is, and he’s one hundred percent blaming Keith for all the trouble they’re about to get into. Keith makes bad decision, Lance makes mistakes, and both of them are stuck together on a space pirate adventure neither of them asked for.

my notes: this fic had me at “space pirates” but yeah wow this is amazing. i loved the fast pace and epic/adventurous feel of it, plus it has really snappy dialogue and parts that made me laugh out loud. plus keith and lance are so well-written in it and have such a good and in-character dynamic. an instant fave.

the light the water reflects || auras || Keith/Lance || T+ || 3.2k || chs. 1/1 (complete)

summary: The boy has ocean-blue eyes, and a gaze that pierces through all the red.

my notes: a short one but super engaging and emotional. the writing is so beautiful and poetic.

someone i forgot to be || skyestiel || Lance & Shiro (platonic), Keith/Lance, Adam/Shiro || G || 1.6k || chs. 1/1 (complete) 

summary: “I wanted to tell hi— them how much I worried about them.” Shiro pauses, gaze wandering to some point in the distance. “But I had trouble admitting it to myself. And to them.”

“Why?”

“Let’s just say that… although it shouldn’t be an issue anymore, it is.” Shiro returns his attention to Lance. Staring straight into his eyes with staggering intensity.

Or: Shiro helps Lance confront puzzling emotions with reassurance and stories of the past.

my notes: a nice lil fic about lance turning to shiro for help when he realizes his feelings for keith, and shiro gives his advice based on his own feelings for adam. it’s just really sweet and heartfelt, i love this so much!

Coming Home || thearchangelofsass || Adam/Shiro || Not Rated || 4k || chs. 1/1 (complete)

summary: Shiro and team voltron have returned to earth and there’s one person Shiro desperately needs to find. But Adam has moved on from the Garrison and perhaps he’s moved on from Shiro as well. But after surviving the horror of Haggar’s experiments, there’s no way Shiro is leaving the love of his life up to chance. 

or

so I can’t stop crying about Adam and Shiro so here’s a fic where they reunite back on earth and are happy

my notes: adam and shiro reunite and talk things out. AAHH this fic made me tear up. the convo between them just feels really organic and believable, it made me so emotional.

What Makes a Team Great || Shedoras || Keith/Lance, Adam/Shiro, Adam & Lance (platonic) || G || 2.7k || chs. 1/1 (complete)

summary: A rare night off at the beach leads to an enlightening conversation between Adam and Lance.

my notes: this is sweet and beautiful and i couldn’t stop smiling! the shiro & adam backstory is so cute where they start off with a rivalry…and hearing adam’s story about it makes lance start to realize his own feelings for keith. beautifully written and i loved it.

Well, well, well look who came running back

Found you through your florist stories. Is there a way I could subtly tell someone to fuck off with flowers?

In flower language? Probably, I think I’ve even reblogged something to that effect. But….most ppl don’t know flower language anymore. No, if you need a true “fuck you” then here’s my DIY official tutorial, the Death Bouquet:

(This is gonna be the least wholesome post I’ve ever written and I am so sorry but I am also laughing while I type this.)

I’ve been railing on Pink Floyd roses a lot for their thorns lately because one has sliced my hand open recently. Get some of those.

Next. Get you some ornamental thorn roses. (I’m not 100% but I think mermaid climbing roses fall into this and are also brutal)

Next. Thistles. Lots of thistles. More thistles than sense.

Next. Dusty miller flower greens. Soft. Weak. Floppy. Clog up your bouquet with these, especially in the middle where they’ll make the stems stick together.

Next. Baby’s Breath. This is your secret weapon. You can’t tell when they’re dead half the time, they’re strong. Too strong. The wrong touch and FOOOOOOF. Tiny leaves and petals EVERYWHERE it’s as good as a glitter bomb.

NEXT. Abandon common arrangement sense. Fillers first, clog the center with fillers. Clog it, make it dense. Stick a rose or two in, but you want at least 70% filler.

NEXT. Hide the thistles. Hide them under the roses. Make sure some of the heads are at hand level. Spray them with water. You want those stems damp and miserable. Thistles harden as they die.

NEXT. The roses. Line this puppy in roses. Ornamentals and Floyds should be along the outside, this bouquet should be DEADLY to put any weight on. Spray them with water. This bouquet should be so tightly packed that your “handle” looks more like a solid mass than anything else.

NEXT. Wrap them in paper. TISSUE PAPER. Thin, weak, damp. Even gardening gloves can’t save your hands now.

NEXT. Be strong, treat the bouquet like a bed of nails. The more evenly spread the weight, the less likely you are to get hurt. You will be tempted to give these roses away in person, but be strong. Your ginger body language will give up the game.

FINALLY. Deliver them. Know. KNOW that your plan has worked, because anyone with any sense will see a bouquet and just FIST it with one hand. Maybe the other will come to support it. But just that. Just the hands. Meeting thorny death. A dozen little needle presses. The paper will be too damp to unravel, to see what has done this. They’ll grab it a few times, trying to learn the secret.

Deliver it with a nice note. Sincere, heartfelt. Make them feel obligated to deep the Death Bouquet. This is where the density comes in. Damp, suffocating, these flowers will mold in secret. They’ll die and their odor will permeate the air. But, because of the nature of the baby’s breath….it’ll be hard to find. Hard to detect. The roses will be sheltered because they’re on the outside, getting air and water. But the center will mold, and stink.

Eventually, they’ll realize it’s the flowers, and they’ll move the bouquet, and POOF, it will shatter, leaves and petals everywhere, releasing a gag worthy odor unlike anything they’ve smelled before.

And that’s how you say “fuck you” with a bouquet.

All he can think is a supercut of other people’s letters they’ve quietly sent to each other. Words that went down in history. “Meet you in every dream … Keep most of your heart in Washington … Miss you like a home … We two longing loves … My young king.” One day, he tells himself. One day, us too.
