reasons why I love hunk garrett and not just b/c he’s “the food guy”
got over his fear of flying in order to take the responsibility of the yellow paladin
a fear that physically crippled him by-the-by – chronic motion sickness isn’t fun y’all
he has a natural pacifist nature but that gets tossed aside if he sees anyone, especially if those he cares about, are in danger
the fact that he’s literally on the front line all the time b/c he’s the tank of the team and he’s willing to get the brunt of the hit to keep people safe
he’s friends with everyone and everyone is friends with him!!!
lance likes him b/c they’re both laid back
pidge likes him b/c they both connect over science
keith likes him b/c he honestly makes him laugh
he’s headstrong and stubborn when he needs to be and isn’t just a push over, he stands up for his ideals when they matter
fighting for the Balmerans and their freedom
insisting Rolo and Nyma were no good
he’s so humble, I feel like Hunk sees himself as a background character (which makes me cry in the middle of the night t b h) but he knows how much voltron means to people, that it’s a symbol of hope, that he’s a symbol of hope now and he uses his services only to help others
he is literally such the mom of the paladins?????
idk why y’all think allura is mom when she’s more like the ruthless middle school P.E. coach who throws dodgeballs at screaming children but okay
hunk literally cooks for everybody and fixes their stuff and sasses them when they mess up and gives them hugs and is the voice of reason/caution of the group
but oKAY I GUESS ALLURA’S MOM
his sense of humor is literally the best, he either points out the obvious and screams about how they’re in giant cat heads or goes on a tangent of how superior sporks are in the middle of a galra recon mission with the straightest goddamn poker face I have ever seen
HIS BAYARD IS A FUCKING CANON
AND BOI CAN HE AIM AND SHOOT
he’s just so???? smart?????
probably the top astromechanical engineer at garrison
he took apart galra tech on his first day while navigating the mine shaft to find his lion and again while analyzing the galra foot soldier with pidge
just that whole Fraunhofer line scene
he apparently knows the atomic signature of all the atomics elements known to earth
literally made a device??? to track??? the blue lion????
when could your fave ever
where would the paladins be if they didn’t have hunk honestly?????
still in keith’s crotchety ass shack that’s where
he probably has photographic memory
I mean he is literally almost equally as smart as he is strong check out this shit
[Strength 19/ Intelligence 17]
and finally: hunk is literally the sweetest cutie in the whole universe Facts™
who else would voluntarily cook for their friends on top of being the team engineer and weapons specialist
literally said “what, no, we’re friends” to pidge when they wanted him to kick them across the room
constantly validates lance to make him feel better about himself
made keith laugh probably the hardest laugh he’s had in awhile
helps shiro reign in everyone
let the Arusians go on piggy back rides
literally liberated all the Balmerans through the power of friendship
please love my beautiful POC, canonly chubby son more thanks (ʘ‿ʘ✿)
