so some sketches of my little baby

voltron is a kids show for babies who are babies and like giant robots but. a year? a year to topple an empire thats dug its slicing claws into over half the known galaxy? its an impossible task made sillier by such an impossible hyperbole. a year?

keith is going to be thirty before hes walking back into that shack. lance's mom is going to get her boy back covered in scars. a map of the galaxy in pale, hairline slits over his skin. colleen holt is going to leave her latest tenure at the local grieving-widow's-support-group, sixty and tired, to find her children sitting in the kitchen. hunk's parents are going to see a man where they lost a boy. not a man of the early 20s variety, a man, with dark stubble and strength in his arms and shadows in his eyes. shiro's parents will be seeing a stranger. shake the hand of the chiseled war veteran, and feel the way the metal slides, smooth, over your skin.

i want the return to earth to be like wearing clothes that dont fit. pulled from your childhood dresser, well-worn and well-loved and impossibly small. tight around your broad adult shoulders and scarred arms. the sky is blue, and the ocean is salty, and life has gone on without you. its not a matter of "you changed, and your home didnt". quite the opposite. your parents had other children. your siblings got married. your grandparents died. your home-- and the people you left there-- changed. but you changed, too. and you and your home changed in opposite directions. your nieces and nephews dont know your face. your parents cant stop looking at the scar on your neck. your siblings ask you what happened, and there is no answer, because there is no way to say that everything happened. you lived a whole life in the stars. and they lived a whole life down here, on the ground.

[shrugs] or maybe you walked into an empty shack after twelve years

This cuties will be the death of me

[yelmor-boots]

That moment that gave us all heart attacks

[yelmor-boots]

The "captain, captain, captain" refrain sending chills down my spine

Odysseus's little "Polites...." Mirroring Polites little "Captain..." when he died is so cruel

[yelmor-boots]

"WHO?!"

Odysseus asked calmly.

Fun fact about the underworld saga:

‘558 men who died under your command’ from The Underworld, combined with ‘43 left under your command’ from Ruthlessness, doesn’t add up to 600 men.

Which means that the guy who fell off Circe’s roof and died is canon to Epic the musical.

#tags by op for context #this is a fuckin gem

[yelmor-boots]

how the fuck does jay expect us to be comforted by the fact that polities believed in open arms even when he fucking died???
