The Fan’s Guide to the Altean Language

UPDATED FOR SEASON 8 - First Update for season 8 (Includes very very rough timeline!)

Thank you all for your overwhelming support. We have reached the end of Voltron. I plan on transferring this to AO3 at some point. Let me know if there is ore data you would like to see for that. For a more indepth guide to season 3, check out @butteredonions post here! (This post is not being updated. Please do not contact them about errors!)

New Updates? Perhaps for the comics. No promises.

Questions? Comments? Want to chat? Let me know! Due to the popularity of this post, I may not see commentary in the tags, so hit up my askbox, the messenger, or the comment feature on the post.

With the increase of alien characters in season 3, we are getting away from this being purely the Altean language. Unfortunately, there’s no real way of knowing what is and isn’t considered “altean”, so I’m just going to continue to use “Altean Language” as the tag.

Units of time (Confirmed with Official Guidebook!)

Quintant = 1 day

Deca-Phoeb = 1 year

Phoeb = 1 month

Dobosh = minute

Varga = hour

Tick = a tad longer than a second

movement = week

@saiikavon has pointed out that in S2E8, the Blades of Marmora base would be closed for 2 quintants. When they mention that 10 Vargas have passed, Lance correctly estimates another 30 Vargas until the base is open again. From this it can be assumed that 2 Quintants = 40 Vargas or 1 Quintant = 20 Vargas.

Agotian Trials - Part of Galra education. Lotor completed this before the age usually tested at

Yordam bering exus - part of an emergency protocol when the sentries are under distress. Is unclear if it is a universal call (like sos) or if each sentry has it’s own (Keith uses it as a name when he addresses the sentry)

Lotarious - ancient Altean believed to have established the foundation of Altean engineering. Partly inspired Lotor’s name.

Sprawl - a galra installation for harvesting cruiser materials (comics)

AW-Cruiser - the garrison off-road cars

Mecha-Flex-exo fighters (MFEs) - Griffins teams use these. One of the prototypes was the MFE-Ares

IGF-Atlas - Sam’s mammoth ship built to defend agains the Galra invasion. Large enough to hold the lions and another unit of fighters. Eventually shape shifts into a Voltron-like being

Plaht City - a large city 30 minutes away from the Garrison

Orbit Axiom X - garrisons most advanced (and portable) flight simulator

Calypso - 1st ship to carry astronauts to the moons of Jupiter. It took 3 years. Reading about it made Shiro want to be a pilot

Mr. Pollard teaches biology at the garrison

Random techno-babble

gluon field fluxuations - expands atomic distance

Synthian nitrate - Axca and Keith use this to make an explosion and escape

Flaxum assembly - MFE part. Griffin instructed a mechanic to tighten down the manifold on the left side because it felt loose

Dynotherms - a connection of some type

dichormate resonance chamber (atlas part)

Paladin Trivia

The paladins left earth on a monday (S1E2)

The swords the blades of Mamora use are made of Luxite, which is rare. They are connected to the life force of their wielder

Coran accompanied his Grandfather while the castle of lions was being built, potentially putting his age in the 600s (not counting the 10k year cryo-sleep)

He/him pronouns are used for Pidge until S1E6, and She/her pronouns from S1E6 onwards

Coran’s full name is Coran Hieronymus Wimbleton Smythe

Haggar’s altean name is Honerva. Her official title is High Priestess

The mice are Platt (largest), Chulatt (blue fur/eyes), Plachu (Blue fur, red eyes), and Chuchule (pink fur)

The Holt family dog was originally named Gunther, later changed to Bae Bae (in honor of the studio’s late pet)

The dates on Matt’s tombstone are 0010-05-25 to 0014-04-28. This format may be the correct date format, as Pidge didn’t realize anything was off until she realized Matt’s b-day was wrong

Allura didn’t seem to know that Lotor was half Altean. Coupled with the memory scene with Haggar, it is implied that Lotor was born sometime after Haggar and Zarkon became corrupted.(confirmed S8) He is likely younger than Allura.

Krolia wanted to name Keith “Yorak”

Coran calls his grandfather “Pop-pop Wimbleton”

Hunk’s pappy is named Hershel. He also has a niece and a nephew. (comics) His Uncle is named Filo. It is unclear if “pappy” refers to his father or grandfather

Alfor took scrapings from the hall of consequences (according to Coran, nothing happened) (comics)

Shiro had an unnamed disease that effects the muscles. He used electro-stimulators to keep the muscles loose. It was getting worse, to the point that he would be unable to maintain peak condition for more than a few years. It is unclear if the disease was terminal, or merely debilitating, of if the clone body also shares the disease

Lance loves his Mee-maws cooking

The paladins named the space wolf Kosmo

Someone just asked me for a source on “women have vivid internal lives that do not rely on men”. Buddy, if you need an academic source for that, that’s your problem right there.

Restless

Allura x reader

I sorta made this out of impulse and it’s the first voltron thing I’ve ever written and it’s kind of pointless but???? There’s not enough Allura stuff so I was inspired.//

It was quiet. The only sound in the air was the steady breathing of the sleeping Altean beside you. Her soft inhales and exhales were so soothing, you almost forgot where you were. Carefully, you turned on your side so you were face-to-face with Allura. It was early, so early that it could’ve been late instead, then again what did you know about time on this planet.

Allura’s breath felt cool against your skin, her breath smelt liked something mixed between cotton candy and butterscotch and you slightly wondered if she ate something sweet before bed or if Alteans just had some weird ass toothpaste. You presumed it was just an Allura thing.

The sliver of light that peeked into the room was just enough for you to admire her expression. You loved watching her like this, asleep and carefree and just her. Her eyelashes shadowed across her cheekbones and her lips just barely fell open with shallow breaths, her snow white hair cascaded down her shoulder, almost acting as another blanket. You mentally asked yourself if she ever got hot under all that hair and decided you’d have to ask sometime when she was awake.

Allura shared her pillow with the four mice, they rested peacefully above her head, some snuggled together. Did she ever name them? Your eyes trailed back down to said girl, marveling at the pink markings on her cheeks, and then you knew you couldn’t help yourself. Your reached your fingers out to lightly graze her cheek, of course you ended up holding her whole cheek while your thumb ran back and forth. She was perfect.

You almost felt bad when her eyes peeked open, squinted, shiny and blue, they might as well have been crystals. You could tell by the way her eyebrows furrowed that she was starting to turn the gears in her head. “What are you doing in here?” She asked, her voice a bit disgruntled.

You let your thumb run across her cheek one more time before pulling your hand back to it’s original position. “I wanted to see you.” You whispered.

Why she showed interest in you, was beyond your understanding. You didn’t have cotton candy morning breath, or perfect cheekbones, or paper-white hair that could or could not be used as a blanket. You couldn’t shapeshift like she could, or fly the ship, you didn’t have ears with a pointed tip or cute little markings under your eyes. She was an entire galaxy full of stars and you were merely a meteor passing by to see the beauty.

“At 306 ticks in the morning?” You could tell she was annoyed by the way her words came out as more of a statement than a question.

You chuckled lowly, matching her glare with a shit-eating grin. “I couldn’t sleep, so I figured it was a good idea to come in here and stare at you until you woke up.” You not-so-jokingly-joked. Allura rolled her eyes, somewhat playful. “It worked, didn’t it?”

“I suppose it did.” She agreed with a pout that made your expression soften and your heart thud.

The room fell quiet for a few ticks, the both of you just staring at one another. Allura stretched an arm out, placing a hand on your cheek as you once did to her, her thumb slowly tracing the outline of your lips. You were surprised at the contact she initiated on her own, seeing as the princess was still getting used to such affection, you assumed it was because she was tired. Her hands smelled like something sweet and were so soft they almost felt unreal, you were starting to wonder what moisturizer she used, or if she even used one.

“What did you dream of?” You wondered.

She smiled in a way that made your stomach drop, so you knew whatever dream you interrupted of hers, was a good one. There was just enough light for you to make out the dark red that coated her cheeks and ear tips. She broke eye contact with you to look down. “You.” She muttered

You could die, right then and there and be okay with it. This girl- this gorgeous celestial being spend her night dreaming up some scenario with you, that she was obviously enjoying, and you woke her up. “Yeah? What was it about?” You were practically smiling ear-to-ear.

“I can’t tell you or else it might not come true.” The way she said the statement was almost childlike, like she really believed it wouldn’t come true if she spoke about it.

“Isn’t that supposed to be wishes?”

“No, that’s silly.”

A comfortable silence fell between the both of you once more. You were both on your backs, staring at the ceiling in thought. Allura’s hand now snugly intertwined with your own. You’ve never felt more content since leaving Earth and maybe even then. You missed home so, so much, and yet if you hadn’t left you would’ve never had this moment, or any moment with Allura. Her hand squeezed your own and you wondered what she was thinking about, but one glance at her glossy eyes and you knew.

You knew she was thinking the same exact thing.

#rereblog bc of S5 #I'm in love with lotor but ya girls fave is still kween allura #gonna post another one sometime this week #voltron

I love searching Newt x Reader because it’s so satisfying. You either get Maze Runner Newt or Newt Scamander, but you always get a cutie with a British accent in your head.

Promise || Minho x Reader

Summary: Minho, Thomas and Alby get trapped in the maze and as you wait oustide the walls, you think back to moments with Minho.

Word Count: 2.9k

Author’s Note: I’m so proud of how this turned out! This is the only piece of writing where I wrote it in one sitting! Very happy on how this turned out eek! I was listening to sad music while writing this and wow it actually made me cry???

Warning: small bit of angst with a lot of fluff!

Request: I don’t know if you would even do this but if you’re a fan of tmr i might as well try! Minho x reader where he gets trapped in the maze and the reader is super worried about him!!!

It happened so suddenly. You knew something was up when Minho and Alby didn’t arrive 4 hours before the wall closed like Minho promised you. When it was 2 hours left, you walked over to the entrance of the maze where Minho parted and picked at the grass. With only an hour left, you were pacing along the entrance, biting your lip and trying to think of something, anything to keep you sane but here you were, minutes before the walls were set to close.

A small group gathered near the opening, all of the glader’s anxiously waiting for their arrival. You tuned their conversations out, but not enough since you caught some of them saying how they wouldn’t make it in time. “No one has ever survived a night in the maze.” Those words haunted you since you arrived at the glade but now more than ever, it was plaguing you.

You felt a hand grasp your shoulder and your body relaxed a bit,” He’ll make it Y/N. Minho knows what he’s doing.”

You look over at Newt and while you wanted to believe his words, his eyes gave it away.

“ If he knew what he was doing then why isn’t he back yet?” You snapped and while your words sounded harsh, your voice was quivering.

A wave of guilt washed over you and you immediately apologized, Newt was just trying to comfort you and it wasn’t fair that you were angry at him.

“ It’s alright, I understand love,” Newt said softly and started to rub small circles on your shoulder to somehow calm you. It didn’t work at all but you were too focused on Minho to care.

From the corner of your eye, you saw the new greenie walking over to you and Newt. Minho talked about Thomas a lot when you two were together but you didn’t mind. Minho was always worrying about getting out of the maze so if a new teenage boy was going to help get his mind off of their endless nightmare, then so be it.

“What if he doesn’t come back? We should really be out there looking for them,” Thomas stated but Newt interrupted his dangerous train of thought.

“ No one steps foot into the maze Tommy,” Newt looked over in your direction, but your eyes never left the maze,” Minho will come back, if anyone can it’s him.”

You had a small fraction of hope but it was demolished when the walls started to shake and began to close.

“No…No no no! Damn it!” You shouted, this couldn’t be happening. Your eyes scanned through the dark maze and your heart dropped when you saw two shadows appear from the distance.

“ It’s Minho and Alby!”

You could hear Minho’s voice, shouting out in pain or in terror, it echoed out in a way where you thought he would make it, but the walls were closing fast.

Alby was wounded and with Minho dragging Alby along, the two of them wouldn’t make it in time.

“They need help,” You whispered softly and you didn’t even realize your feet were moving until you felt someone grab you.

“ Y/N stop!” Newt shouted as you struggled under his grip, his arms locking your whole body to the point where your feet wouldn’t even touch the floor.

You could hear Minho shouting your name, telling you to stay put but all you cared about was getting to Minho, even if it meant you had to go in there. You used all of your strength to get Newt off of you but it wasn’t enough. You felt wet tears streaming down your face and your vision was blurry from all the tears- but enough to see Thomas, running through the closing walls.

Your breath hitched and you stopped struggling, Thomas went in there to save Minho and Alby. The rest of the gladers were shouting, you weren’t sure what they were saying because all you could hear was Minho screaming your name and hearing him say “I Promise.”

A gust of wind pushed your hair back as the walls closed and you let out the breath you didn’t even know you were holding. If everyone was talking around you, you couldn’t hear it. Everything sounded so far away and for the first time since you arrived in that stupid metal box, you cried. You sobbed and sobbed as Newt kept holding onto you, the two of you falling to the floor. You turned your head away from the walls that trapped your best friend, your everything, your Minho and cried into Newt’s shoulder.

“Sup shank, whatcha doing besides looking cute?” Minho asked as he tossed you a sandwich and you tried to catch it with one hand but failed.

“ Just drawing and trying to have peace and quiet for once,” You said, putting down your pencil and picking up the smushed sandwich Minho gave you. You unwrapped it and took a huge bite, not realizing how hungry you were.

Minho snorted as he sat down on the grass across from you,” Peace and quiet in the glade? Sounds like a fantasy.”

He tried to peek at what you were drawing but you put it against your chest, hiding it from him. He raised his eyebrow suspiciously,” Is that from the map room? Are you stealing again?”

“ It’s not stealing, it’s borrowing…you’re not gonna rat me out are you?” You tease, knowing that Minho would never tell on you.

“ I just might…unless you show me what you’re working on,” Minho says as he snatches the paper from you.

“Minho come on!” You whine as Minho scans the picture you drew. It was a picture of the vines that cascaded along the walls of the maze with Minho near the bottom of the picture, his face in deep concentration. You were proud of the picture but you couldn’t hide the embarrassment you felt, wondering if Minho was creeped out or not.

“ Was this from-”

“The last day of me being a runner yeah,” You interrupted, biting the inside of your cheek. You studied Minho’s face and you were surprised to see a smile forming on his lips.

“Y/N this is really good, you captured my beauty perfectly. I’m a little hurt you didn’t draw it from my good side but wow- this is amazing, thank you,” Minho gushed, his cheeks were slightly pink.

You smiled and took your bottom lip in between your teeth,” To be fair, every side is your good side.”

The words fell out so easily out of your mouth and while you were nervous to let it slip, it felt good to let it out. Minho’s eyes left the picture and traveled to your own eyes, the look alone made you feel like the happiest person in the world.

“ Do my ears deceive me or is Y/N actually flirting with me?” Minho teases as he moves closer to you.

You never went along with Minho’s flirtatious comments but for once, you finally had enough courage to test the waters and you had to use it fast before it faded again.

“ If I didn’t who would?”

“ You’re a clever shank ya know that?”

“ I think I get that from you.”

“ I guess we have two things in common then- being two hot clever shanks.”

“ I think that’s three things in common, can you even count?”

“ Sorry, I guess you have that effect on me.”

While you two were “bickering”, you two moved closer and closer to each other. Minho was on his knees with one hand leaning against the tree right next to your head and his other hand playing with the hem of your shirt.

Minho’s eyes traveled down to your lips and back to your eyes, almost as if he as asking for permission. You ignored the butterflies in your stomach and grabbed the collar of his shirt and pulled him in, but before you could kiss him, a voice rang out.

“ Minho, don’t you have a job to be doing? You two can be hormonal once we leaving this shucking maze alright?” Alby said sternly as Minho huffed and moved away from you.

“Yeah yeah,” Minho muttered as he looked back at you with pleading eyes, almost as if he was saying “ Maybe next time.”

Alby practically dragged Minho away from you and while you were embarrassed from Alby catching you two almost kissing, you couldn’t help but think of Minho’s lips so close to yours.

It had been hours since the walls closed but you were still sitting a couple of feet in front of the wall that trapped Minho hours earlier. You didn’t know if you should be worried about how you didn’t feel cold anymore but if you were freezing, it meant Minho was even colder than you. You rubbed your hands together in an attempt to stay warm but you felt a blanket being wrapped around your body.

You didn’t have to look up to know that it was Newt, he was always taking care of you when Minho wasn’t around. Newt sat down next to you and handed you a plate of Frypan’s food, but you weren’t interested.

“ He shouted my name, he saw me…standing there doing nothing,” You said quietly, your voice was strained from crying. Newt didn’t say anything, he instead pushed the plate closer to you to try and tempt you to eat it. You took it from Newt but plopped it down next to you, earning a small sigh from Newt.

“ I’m sorry…but you couldn’t go in there. If you went through those walls-”

“It’s not like I haven’t before Newt, remember?” You remind him.

Newt shakes his head and picks at the grass,” Yeah but that was because you were a runner, not anymore. No one steps foot into the maze-”

“ I’m sorry,” you say hastily,” but I don’t remember you doing anything when Thomas ran in there to try and save them. He’s a greenie- he barely knows anything about this shucking place. I should be out there not Thomas.”

“ My hands were a bit occupied Y/N! I was keeping Minho’s promise so-” Newt cut himself off and his jaw clenched, staring anywhere but your gaze.

“ Minho’s promise?” You ask quietly.

Newt looks over at you and curses under his breath,” God he’ll kill me for telling you this….Minho made me promise that if anything ever happened to him that I would take care of you. You’re as stubborn as him, and as strong but I still had to hold you back because if you went in there and something happened… I don’t know.”

You took in a deep breath,” God this sucks.”

“What do you mean?”

“Because,” you started as you thought of Minho and what he could be doing out in the maze right now- if he was even still alive,” I think I love him. A lot. But he’s out there and I’m in here and it didn’t hit me until something terrible like this happened to realize I love him. I love his shucking face and his shucking hair and his stupid shucking eyes. I’ll never be able to hear his laugh or hear his lame jokes. I never got to tell him I loved him and he’ll never know.”

You expected Newt to say nothing but instead, he cleared his throat,” Y/N, he knows you love him. Bloody hell we all know you love him and he loves you too. The only words that come out of his mouth are about you and your shucking face as well. When he gets back, which he will, you two are gonna kiss I promise you that.”

For the first time since the walls closed, your eyes weren’t wet with tears and you wore a small smile,” You promise?”

“I promise,” Minho said as you laid together in your hammock,” once we get out of this place I’m going to show you what real food tastes like.”

Your legs were tangled together in the hammock, your head resting in the crook of Minho’s neck and your left arm was draped over his chest. It wasn’t unusual for the two of you to be this close but it bugged you to the point of insanity that you haven’t even been close to kissing since that time in the woods. It seemed that there was this unspoken agreement between you two that there was something there, but never acknowledged it fully.

“ Oh come on, Frypan’s food isn’t even that bad! He should get more credit, after all, he is cooking for so many ungrateful teenage boys.”

Minho acts offended and scoffs,” I am not ungrateful, I’m just saying that if I’m eating beef and I can still hear it mooing, it’s a problem!”

You both share a laugh and you savored this alone time with Minho. For the past couple of weeks, Minho was always being pulled into the map-room and you were always attending to someone’s wounds with Jeff and Clint.

“ Do you ever wonder about what’s outside these walls?” Minho asked, throwing you off guard. Your topics usually never got too deep or personal but you didn’t mind.

“ All the bloody time. I’d give anything to leave this place,” You admit as Minho tenses up.

“Bloody huh? I see you’re spending a lot of time with Newt,” Minho states, his voice sounding almost monotone.

You raise your head up to make eye contact,” You’re not jealous are you?”

“What? No, I’m glad you’re spending time with him, he’s a good guy…is there a reason that I should be jealous?” Minho asks and you weren’t sure if the tone of his voice was serious or not.

“ Of course not. I only have an unspoken relationship with you and no one else,” You tease as you rest your head back down, making Minho chuckle.

“Unspoken? I have no idea what you’re talking about Y/N,” Minho says, looking at you with soft eyes.

“That, that right there don’t do that,” You say as Minho continues to give you those eyes that could be saying a thousand words. It was like looking into the eyes of a child who knew they did something wrong but are too stubborn to admit it.

“ Oh come on, you’re telling me that this look doesn’t scream the words kiss me? Cause that’s what they’re trying to say unless there’s a language barrier,” Minho challenged as his hand brushed your hair out of your face.

“ You’re such a flirt Minho.”

“ Oh shut up, you love it.”

“ That’s very debatable.”

“ Instead of debating, can I kiss you? Cause I rather do that before we get interrupted again.”

You smile as Minho closes his eyes and leans towards you and before you can kiss, you feel the hammock tilt to the side, causing you and Minho to fall to the ground.

“Seriously? Can’t I just have five seconds alone?” Minho groans as he looks over to Alby, who doesn’t look too happy.

“ We got a problem, it’s about Ben,” Alby says as he crosses his arms, looking at you and Minho.

Minho looks over to you and groans,” This better be good Alby, I’ll be back Y/N promise.”

I promise.

Those words kept you awake all night and now that the walls were open, you clung to those words. Newt was still by your side, along with a few other glader’s who looked over at Newt from time to time since he was second in command.

You were tired to say the least, you didn’t get a blink of sleep because all you could think about was if Thomas, Alby and Minho were okay. No one has ever survived a night but a part of you believed that Minho could do it. Being a runner meant that you had good intuition and enough knowledge, while Minho was very impulsive, he was still very strategic.

You wanted nothing more than to wrap your arms around Minho again and never let him go. For a second, you thought you saw something move in the maze and you thought nothing of it. It wasn’t until you heard your name when you realized it was Minho and Thomas carrying Alby back. They were alive.

Other runners rushed in to help with Alby and as soon as Alby was in the hands of another runner, Minho sprinted towards you.

You rushed towards him as he picked you up and spun you around, the two of you laughing and crying like a bunch of idiots. You buried your face into his neck and sighed in relief.

“ You scared me to death Minho I thought you were dead!”

“ And leave you here with 40 hormonal boys? I think the shuck not!” Minho laughed, trying to lighten up the mood,” god I missed you so much you have no idea!”

You pulled away from him and saw Newt in the background, giving you a thumbs up. You smiled back at him and turned towards Minho, feeling that same wave of courage,” I’m gonna kiss you now okay?”

Minho smirked,” Gee Y/N you’re very eager-”

You grabbed a fistful of Minho’s shirt and pressed your lips up against his, cutting off his teasing voice that you would never get sick of hearing. He immediately kissed back, his hands moved down to your waist and you could hear Gally pretending to throw up in the background.

“ Bloody hell, it took you two shanks long enough!”
