With Voltron s4 on the way Im getting worried
So, ships right? Klance, Leith whatever the fuck (still ugly names) has this kinda cool, kinda weird shakiness with their chemistry. Keith and Lance, Red and Blue- we've seen it all and it's great, we saw great strides in LGBTQ coverage compared to say, ten years ago.
Now, I've been hearing on the airwaves about VAs talkin about the maybes and maybe nots of Klance happening, and that got me worried. I'm worried that the writers are gonna lure Klance fans in with the same way Supernatural writers lured Destiel Fans. A lot of talk amongst actors, stringing along with twisted writing and that thought that maybe one's favorite, dedicated ship will become canon.
Now with what I know as an ex destiel fan, Actors did a lot of shimmy shimmy showtime on the matter and sorta blockt questions abt destiel. Then the writers part mocked, part gave a love letter to their fans about their dedication to the show. Fans fell for it, hook line and sinker and I was one of them.
Then i realized how it fucked me and left mento die and i was bitter since.
Come Voltron and the shakiness that is Keith and Lance. There are a lot of familiar parallels between Supernatural destiel shenanigans and Voltron Klance shenanigans. I'm worried, not that it'll be canon but that it'll be the sorest sense of queer baiting this side of Tumblr shipping and TV. That they'll lure in shipping fans and keep them there, then shit out piss poor writing. Like Supernatural.
Now, I'm rambling a bit but hear me out: just cause its Netflix doesn't mean they'll do it. I'm seeing signs that maybe they're willing to broach the idea with Home but a bishie boy together romance? Note, that mainstream pop culture media is making stiff moves forward.
So yeah Im worried. Ship whatchu ship, its cool and everything but foe my sake, please don't expect anything to happen.
