Alternatively titled: Lance Deserves The World Because He is My Son and I Love Him
Okay, so Shiro’s gone and someone’s gotta fill his big ass shoes. In the toss-up between him, Allura, and Keith, I’m going to be arguing in this post that Lance could be the guy to do it. And, fair warning, this is going to be ridiculously (like, ridiculously) long lmao so here’s the TL;DR right now: I think that a) Lance already shows the character traits of a good leader, and b) there’s a good chance of him becoming one, given his impending character arc.
It also has a chance of not happening, of course, but who cares?? I already started writing this thing, so:
Alright, let’s begin at the beginning, because that’s always a good place to start.
Lance is first introduced to the audience as the classic loud, arrogant, goofy flirt. The perfect comic relief character. He rescues a guy because his “rival” was gonna do it first and he can’t have that, the first thing he does in the giant robot cat is fart, and he hits on a girl who just fell out of a pod in a magic castle. He’s there to make you laugh.
I can’t imagine anyone looking at a character like that and “You know what? This guy could be a leader.” Allura says it herself in episode 1. The black lion is supposed to be the decisive head of Voltron, a person who’s a natural born leader, who’s in control, and,
Basically, calm, collected, and respected. “A natural born leader.” So, definitely not Lance. Case closed.
But, not really. Because Lance actually is calm and collected. He’s just not respected. He has all the leadership traits– the problem is that he’s not treated as someone who could be a leader.
college au based on these 2 profs in my school that always competed w/ the one nxt door by yelling louder than the other one. Everyday. Also obligatory child genius Pidge that gets to go to college p early and is constantly suffering for many reasons
I have a really bad habit of hoarding in my ‘marked for later’ list on Ao3 and yesterday I went through and caught up on almost everything (besides some longer fics), along with taking some notes on stuff I had read and liked before. So here’s a list of, imo, excellent fic.
Most (i think all, actually) of this is NSFW because I’m a shameless ho so just read the tags, mkay?
If anyone sees typos/bad links/doesn’t want to be on this list let me know so I can fix it please.
Keith
woke too hot and irritable. He had kicked the blanket away and rolled
onto his stomach on the soft futon, and now he rested his forehead on
his arm and groaned. His skin felt prickly, like he itched all over,
and a deep-seated ache resonated
somewhere between his legs. This wasn’t the same, as last time.
So i fininished season 2 of voltron in 1 day and all i have to say is WTH IS THIS!?? SHIRO YOUR NOT A DAMN MAGICIAN GET YOUR ASS BACK HERE I NEED SEASON 3 NOW
