Hello everyone, reporting for giant robot kitty fan trash, I am on this ship, ready to graduate from cadet. I love Shiro, Allura, and Pidge most of all. My trifecta of awesome.
Because I am entirely wrong: I may have some slight speculations about a Black Jewels/Voltron crossover. I blame Keith wing!pics and ABO (Because the black jewels gender essentialism is pretty much ABO with Queens as Alphas. ) I don't think Keith would necessarily be Eyrien though. Lance: Warlord Shiro: Prince (he doesn't have the exaggerated aggressiveness of a Warlord Prince, but I don't think he's a Warlord.) Hunk: Warlord (or maybe Prince if we're assuming that Princes in Blood terms are more level headed?) Keith: Warlord Prince (because the "lets attack Zarkon" seems very Warlord Prince to me) Pidge: Queen Allura: Queen Corran: Warlord
I'd put Pidge as a Black Widow. She doesn't have the center-of-attention leadership thing that Queens do but the hacking could be equivalent to some Black Widow weirdness. Did we ever get to see a regular Prince in the books?
Yes, he's a member of Jaenelle's birth family, though I can't remember his name. (He told Lucivar that Daemon killed Jaenelle.) I did not think of Pidge as a Black Widow. :/ ("natural" or just training in the Craft?) My reasoning for Queen is mostly because of the Green Lion being Forest (connection to the earth.) Though I guess Black Widow might fit better. Now I'm imagining her posing via various disguise magics as a Warlord.
Okay, Now for the Inevitable SBURB Classpect Thing Uh. I actually got nothing, except Pidge is Something of Space, and Lance is Page of Something. (Okay, maybe not a Page, I dunno.)
Keith doesn't have nearly enough self-image issues to be a knight. He's Heir of Space. Shiro's the Knight... maybe of Heart? Pidge - Thief of Mind Lance - Prince of something Hunk - something of Blood, actually I could see him as the Page Allura - Mage of either Hope or Life
He doesn't have self image issues that we yet know of, because his history is still really vague, and we haven't gotten much, if any in Keith's head episodes, but he sure does have the stupid, instinctive drive to be self sacrificing for others. So I think Knight is still on the table for him. I can def see Mage for Allura. Think Corran is a Seer?
I am not sure about Thief of mind for Pidge. Since she doesn't seem to have Meenah or Vriska's flashy temperament? She isn't a Roxy or Nepeta type character either so I'm not sure Rogue would fit either. I like Mage. Keith...definitely a Knight. Lance I don't see as a Prince. (Are you judging Prince by Eridan and Dirk's romantic issues?) Page fits him better I think: flights of fancy and adventure/overconfidence on top, flipping to squidgy insecurity on the bottom, potential is there, but he's not hitting the notes. Hunk I *don't* see as a Page. He's too steady. Yes he gets panicky, but that's not necessarily a Page thing. I'd say Heart, myself.
I kinda see Pidge as a Seer? Driven to understand things intellectually, tactical, prone to kinda doing their own thing and being reckless. I'm not sure the aspect. Maaaybe Blood or Doom? Or Time. I almost wanna put Hunk as Sylph, since he is the one that most worries over/nurtures (feeds) everyone else, but I don't think he's that passive. Life aspect, though. I really like Shiro as Knight of Heart- that classpect is basically synonymous with "Hope you like identity issues." Could also be Knight of Mind, for similar reasons. ...Knight could still work for Kieth. Knight's stories often revolve around heroism or goodness, or some other type of thing you try hard to be and think you're failing. From what we've seen in the trailers, season 2 could push that more to the forefront for Kieth. In that case....it'll sound weird but maybe Maid for Shiro? His story has a lot to do with control and who has power over him. Sooo revised, maybe Maid of Heart for Shiro and Knight of ..yeah, Rage for Kieth. Allura could almost be a Prince, but I think I'm gonna go with Mage of Space. Coran is the Heir of Mind? I really like Page for Lance, maybe Page of Breath or Life?
I thought of Seer for Pidge at first too, but I think she's too active/fighty/wants to personally act on things where Seer is supposed to be a passive class that guides others through action. Since Light is somewhat a combination of both luck and knowledge in SBurb terms I can def peg her as Light.

I don't suppose anybody knows if the new season is up anywhere other than Netflix? I don't got Netflix rn.
Not this early I don't think. I am considering streaming it when I get home from work, maybe with an art draw? Don't know if anyone would be down for that.
