A groggy mind slowly turning its gears again muffles the question. Sleep deprived, no thoughts. Head empty.
You hadn’t even thought about the concept of explaining to your coworkers what could’ve possibly taken up a seemingly random weekend. Much less about how you’d be utterly useless for the day. And even less about why you would even bother to show up.
Forty-eight hours of chaotic planning, development, ideas, failures, hijinks, etc. Starting with an evening of high-energy grindsets strong enough to convince the most mythical of engineers to leave their castles and bless us with the riches of their fast prototyping. Their high-end mechanical keyboards controlling the push and pull of our hopes and dreams with a simple pull review.
Of course, we would treat them with a fine glass of designer tears farmed from the realisation that they might actually have to touch a Unity UI, served together with a fine plate of lovely looking high poly dishes (which would’ve been perfect were it not for the artist that forgot about the exporting guidelines).
As a side dish, we’ll air-fry the abandoned concepts on the floor where the theme was announced. Its withered flowers tasting of sour regret mixed with sweet daydreams, freshly plucked from the train ride to here. Goes well with a glass of anticipation (locally sourced, definitely sweat).
Of course, to top it off, we would have some of the sauciest sauce. Richly flavoured with the media literacy of a well-read shut-in and stocked with the fruits of the labour of a well-disciplined hard worker. And spiced with the zesty sparks of a debatably well-rested loose cannon of a nerd.
None of it will be finished. Perhaps not even halfway. But an over-scoped project is a dinner meant to be shared. And who’s better to share it with than the people crazy enough to cook it with you?
When the sleep deprivation hits and the lingering smell of gamers slowly wears off, you might think about other weekends. Ones where you’d have stayed home, binge-watching your blorbos. Ones where the word code wouldn’t even dare show up on your phone.
I hope that, when you consider the seemingly meaningless suffering you’ve gone through, you remember the just-as-stinky peer sitting next to you, using 4 hours of Eurobeat to crunch through nights of bug hunting, ngon culling, and entry-level scripting. So, when people ask, you look at your well-filled stomach of experience and answer them truthfully, with all your heart:

what didn't you like about season 3? I liked Lotor, and the alternate universe concept as well as clone shirk and younger zarkon. now I had the "this is only 7 episodes, not the full season in mind" but I didn't like how they had Keith willingly leave his team behind when he had that character growth in season 2s BoM episode. they put Keith down a lot for characters like lance to shine, and Lotor to show his cunningness. talk to me captain
There were a lot of things I didn’t like and I had some expectations that S3 would draw my attention and interest back fully on Voltron again, but yeah - haha. Not happening, so far. Er, putting this under “Read More” simply because rant. /sighs
Some things I didn’t really like however, were basically:
Everything felt super rushed and the pacing was horrible; there was too much going on in one episode, imo.Â
The portrayal of Keith - I guess, which I felt was really … Dumb? I get that the way he reacted was supposed to be because of Shiro’s absence, but it just made Keith seem really dumb, illogical, and like he can’t do anything right unless Shiro is there. He came off very dependent but not really only that, it just seemed that his angst and anger wasn’t executed very well because I didn’t really … I don’t know? I sat there and was like, for a moment, “Wow, this is the Keith - the character I really adore?” It just seemed as if at first, Keith came off as a very fun, complex character because he wasn’t just your impulsive, hot-headed loner - he had issues with being abandoned, he’s a bit socially awkward, able to joke and laugh, loyal and trustworthy, etc. – but with the portrayal of him in S3, it just felt like the horrible, stereotypical emo boy fanon!Keith was real - like, everything he had in S2 just went down the drain all of a sudden. Especially his time piloting the Black Lion. It was just ??? Alright, so I understand that he’s not going to be the best leader straight on, but come on. The characteristics in this show is just so inconsistent.Â
Switching Lions was done pretty poorly and seemed pointless, imo. I just - ??? I’m already cringing at people making the whole, “Lance is in Keith’s shadow now” because really? Not even that though, but I just don’t understand ??? Like, I honestly don’t see a reason as to why Allura can’t be accepted as the Red Lion? I had high hopes for her because I viewed Keith and Allura as very similar. Lance being accepted as the pilot for Red Lion didn’t make sense? I don’t really see how he proved himself either? He literally tells Keith that he doesn’t want him as leader, thinks Keith bringing up how Shiro chose him as the leader as Keith having an ulterior motive, and then suddenly, he’s so accepting just because Black Lion accepted Keith in front of him? S1, Allura states that Red Lion is the hardest to earn the trust of - well, damn.Keith, risks his life to prove his worth to Red LionLance, sees Keith get accepted by Black Lion despite how ten minutes ago he was being bitter about it - instantly gets accepted by Red Lion  Amazing.Â
Lance’s development was shitty. Like, he doesn’t even develop through the episodes, he just randomly changes after Keith gets BL and he gets RL. All of a sudden, he’s supportive, the voice of reason, the person who puts his hand on Keith’s shoulder to give him reassurance and it’s like, okay - throughout the series, we are literally shown Lance being a dick to Keith for no reason other than having a misconception about Keith’s character (envy, inferiority, jealousy) - and now, he doesn’t even address that. His development doesn’t address it at all.It’s obvious that Keith would be involved with Lance’s development and I wanted them to settle the problem between them that Lance instigated, but with how S3 developed it, they just swept that under the rug. Honestly, I don’t know how anyone could be satisfied with that but you do you. I mean, maybe I’m just a salty Keith lover, but S3 swept Lance’s bad sides under the rug and just showed how logical and reasonable he was and supportive and just how insecure he is without actually … Letting him … Develop it. It just … Happens. Like, he’s a different person ten minutes later.
Lotor and the Paladins; it seemed like the writers didn’t know how to show just how different Lotor was from his previous version and that he is now, smart and cunning - intelligent with hidden agendas without dumb-ing down the Paladins? LOL? The whole baiting scene was just ???? Lance points out they’re being pinned against each other, Keith screams at everyone because he’s angry and frustrated, and then - Pidge, Hunk, and Allura have no idea what to say or what they’re doing. Meanwhile, Lotor is just apparently too damn smart. Honestly, I really like him a lot! Tbh, I just didn’t like how ??? His scenes were kinda’ … I don’t know, it just didn’t stand out for me.Â
For some reason, it seemed like no one really cared about Shiro’s disappearance but Keith? Everyone was already ahead and making jokes about wanting to be BP and it just seemed kinda’ weird? Like, they comforted Keith for a second and then they were just - shrug, shrug, shrug.Â
I actually don’t care much for the clone!Shiro plot.Â
Er, the fact that they made Shiro’s absence such a big goddamn issue for Keith and then, once Shiro’s back, it’s just sorta’ like, lackluster in the reaction Keith has?Â
Yeah, that’s all I can think of right now. There were of course, some good parts as well? I enjoyed the Lance and Pidge moments, the Lance and Allura moments especially, and I like the idea of Auxia and Keith being foils (since she was apparently leading the battleship thing they made with the comet). I think I’ve come to love Zarkon’s character more than Lotor, actually, and felt that the background they gave Zarkon made him so … Easy to sympathize for, like, oh, everything makes sense now. The Lance and Keith moments were actually quite nice to watch. Sorry if this answer was a bit disappointing. I’m pretty bitter right now but I’m still going to stick around. Thanks for the ask! Have a good day/night.Â
Happy Holidays! I will be taking a break until the new year! I’ll have things queued and check in from time to time, but I am taking a much needed break from Tumblr. Later, everyone! Have an amazing holiday season (as best you can) and let’s make 2020 amazing! Slight warning: my blog may be even more political in 2020 (for obvious reasons). much love xoxo
