Hey hey...if you're like me AND celebrate on Christmas Eve BUT can't see anyone bc this awful pandemic was mishandled by the same evil monsters who now get the vaccine before anyone else AND STILL ignore the 320K of us who DIED AND lost someone you loved...it's okay to be angry.
I've just been angry for so much of 2020 that when my niece was born last month, I've forgotten what it felt like to do be anything OTHER than angry. I saw her in the video and was like getting hit in the back of the head by a 2x4.
Anyway, I have nothing really positive to say since this year has been a shitbag thrown in a trainwreck that landed in a dumpster fire. I won't even say it's going to get better in 2021 cause fuck that. It's been fun to write fic, watch BNHA and enjoy everyone's company, though.
Last year I came to the late-in-life realization that I'm a natural optimist. Even at the worst times in my life, my brain is so broken that it just finds positive solutions to problems? It's terrible. I wish I could self destruct like SOME of you, but I'm naturally unflappable.
That means even though today sucks, I'm still going to have a good time, get shitfaced on gløgg with my spouse in our living room and chill out. I'm still angry though and I don't know when I'll ever stop being angry - if ever.

PART 2 - of my Holiday post-canon klance thread where Keith is stuck on Earth and forced to celebrate Christmas with Lance even though he’s grumpy about it and lost his memories. 🎄☃️
Keith wakes up in what could be the most comfortable bed he's ever slept in. A plush pillow rests under his head. Everything smells like Lance, and Keith wonders if this is what it'd feel like to be hugged by him.
Did they hug before?
Keith hopes so because he wants to again.
He pulls the blanket up to his chin, squinting at the end table. The picture from before is faced down, hidden. Curiously, Keith lifts it up and sees a picture of Lance standing next to a young woman with dark skin and silver hair and -

Keith wakes to the sound of people talking about him, which is the first hint that he should probably stay asleep. The smell of antiseptic and the scratchiness of the sheets is what clues him into being a Garrison hospital room.
Groggily, he opens his eyes and his vision blurs around a figure that looks like Shiro, that guy Shiro's dating that Keith always forgets the name of, and another person his brain can’t connect to a name. He knows him though, Keith is sure of it.
I've spent all weekend reading "Reverse Psychology" by @tempestbreak_ and every piece of this work of art is them going, "AIGHT AIGHT...You wanna tell me Keith was in love with Shiro and heartbroken over Curtis? That Lance was destroyed after Allura? Challenge accepted, bitch."
"Oh what? Keith fucked the clone? Bring it. Lance with depression? I'll take that too. Post canon klance can happen in any universe, under any circumstances and here's 100,000 word 11 chapters why. AND IT'S FUNNY!"
Then they droppes the mic and backflipped out a window.
This fic has the exact opposite canon interpretation I had and yet every time I finished a chapter I was like, "LOOK AT THIS BALLER! LOOK AT THIS FIC! I HAVE NO DAMN BUSINESS HYPING THIS SHIT! DAMN!"
Also Lance is quite perfectly written. It may be the best Lance I've ever read.
Thread where I re-read my favorite volume of the Voltron comics - also the last one written by Tim Hedrick 😭 - where the team hangs out with space furries, Hunk adopts an alien son and Lance saves Keith from getting his head chopped off. 💕
When the universe is at stake and you're all really stressed out, what else is there to do other than fucking around with the training equipment like it's a corn maze?
So many of you weren't around when JDS, LM, Jeremy Shada and Bex were the 4 horsemen of the Votlron apocalypse. Nothing good ever happened when these people were interviewed. Ever.
Bex gave us the iconic "Voltron is a show about war..." speech and ironically had a redemption arc the week before S8 dropped when she confirmed Acxa and Keith were warrior buddies.
The Most Bex Moment Ever was after S7 dropped and everyone rightfully was rioting over Voltron killing their gays and Bex tweeting out, "Ummmmm can we stop this drama and APPRECIATE MY EVIL SPACE LESBIANS ZETHRID/EZOR!😍😍" and every reply under it was, "BITCH, THEY'RE DEAD TOO!"
