• “You turned out to be quite useful” proves that Shiro was not only a pawn to the Galra, but the blades too. Which then extends to include him being a pawn to the revolution.
• The black lion moving away from it’s bond with Shiro almost immediately proves that he was a pawn to Voltron, too.
• The Garrison were using Shiro as a pawn when he was their poster boy. He was the inspiration to convince young men and women to join the air force.
• He was CLONED to be used as a pawn.
• The black lion kept him for the purpose of ratting out that clone.
Shiro is so godamn tired of serving one, and the same purpose to every institution he’s even been to, and colleagues he’s ever met.
No matter how important he becomes, what level of universal fame he rises to, Shiro IS just another front-line soldier
