â am i dramatic? yes. is it justified? also yes. â ( altean lance verse )
  Shiro does his absolute best to look annoyed, but he has to roll his eyes upward towards the ceiling because he can feel the corners of his mouth betraying him. âLance, sweetheartâI know you donât like him, but I think your only saving gracing in telling Lotor, officially the new Emperor, to stick it where the sun doesnât shine is the fact that he doesnât know Earth idioms.â Not that Shiro entirely blames him. None of them wanted to get involved with the Kral Zera, and aligning themselves politically in a turmoiled, leader-less Galra Empire was a bad idea.Â
  Sometimes, hard decisions had to be made, despite everyoneâs feelings on the subject.
  Zarkon was dead.
  Things were changing.
  Maybe some things were changing too much, and bringing out tensions where there hadnât been any beforeâShiroâs not sure, and part of him is too nervous to delve deep into it when things between them had been so good lately.
  âAnd I know you donât like him sidling up to Allura, but she can take care of herself.â Why would Lotor have saved them from Haggar and then allied himself with Voltron despite knowing it would get him locked away under count of suspicion, and then killed his own father on top of it all if he truly didnât want to change the working ways of the universe as they currently stood? Maybe heâs... over-simplifying it all in his head.
