I’m shocked that nobody has mentioned this yet from the trailer, as it was a detail I noticed the first time I saw it. You remember this guy? From season 1 episode 3?
Myzax, the monster that Shiro fought so long ago when he was the champion, and the very first robeast to ever appear on the show. They even made a toy of him because he was the first robeast! Truly iconic. Well…
It looks like he’s back for some reason in the season 8 trailer, fighting the individual lions in what appears to be space, or maybe even the astral plane.
They destroyed him completely in their first encounter in season 1, so it doesn’t make sense for him to literally reappear. Unless Honerva brings him back? Or a random theory I thought of is, perhaps Honerva is going to conjure up projections of all of Voltron’s past enemies? That would not only be intense, but it’d be quite the nostalgia trip to go down the line of all the major robot enemies our paladins have faced throughout the show.
Whatever the case, he’s at the end of every opening credits sequence when Voltron slices all three robeasts, so it’ll be interesting to see what role he has to play in season 8, as well as what other call backs they’ll bring into play. After all, if they’re revisiting an enemy from the early episodes of season 1, what else are they going to be bringing back in season 8???

Stories where Keith slowly starts trusting Shiro
Check these out:

Keith’s mentor, Krolia, has always warned him from the very beginning: show mercy to a vampire and you’re dead. They’re snakes, they’re liars, they’ll kill you if you’re stupid enough to ever give them a chance. As a beloved member of the Blade, Keith’s lived by this. He’s never had any reason to question Krolia. She’s always told him how his family was killed by them, after all.
Keith’s a good fighter. Krolia’s trained him into the perfect weapon. But when a newly turned vampire doesn’t fight back, Keith hesitates, and to hesitate is to be killed. But the vampire doesn’t hurt him. The vampire saves his life instead. And from that moment on, Keith is gone.
Maybe vampires aren’t as bad as he thought. Maybe Keith’s not who he thought he was. Maybe Krolia’s been lying to him all along.

After losing the Grandfather who raised him, Shiro throws himself headlong back into life at the Garrison. Desperate to believe that everything is fine, Shiro focuses on his extra studies, on working as Commander Iverson’s TA, on anything but dealing with his grief or giving himself space to mourn. For the most part, his façade fools everybody. Unfortunately for his desire to avoid dealing with his problems, compartmentalizing and denial can only last so long before something has to give.
On the other hand is Keith. A driven cadet who’s earned everything that he has to his name, Keith sees Shiro as little more than a useless pretty boy whose family has a legacy with the Galaxy Garrison. As far as he knows, Shiro’s only gotten so far at the Garrison through a mix of dumb luck and nepotism. Keith’s perfectly content not to question any of his preconceived ideas about the Garrison’s resident golden boy. Unfortunately for his resolve, he keeps catching Shiro in vulnerable moments and spotting details that other people miss.

The Garrison has captured an alien. It’s the very first time.
Shiro is sleeping peacefully in his room at the Garrison when it happens, bundled warmly in dreams as light explodes through the night sky and the ground quakes and quivers. A mile away, in the darkness of the desert, a boy who’s not all human, but not all Galra either, stumbles from his shuttle, disorientated, looking for his father.
He’s apprehended immediately and it’s up to Shiro to get him to tell them what he wants.

Keith had watched him fall. One moment standing there, then knees had hit the dirt and the rest of Shiro’s body had followed. One moment was all it took for the world to run black, then fire up red as blood across the earth. Just when grief sinks its claws into him, morning breaks with scenes Keith knows because he has already lived them, knows that in just a few hours his entire world will end once more.
Shiro had watched him fall. One moment standing there, and on the next, Keith’s body had dropped to the ground, heavy and silent. One moment for the panic to start snarling in its cage and set the world buzzing with static in his ears. And just when the grief sinks in, morning breaks with scenes Shiro knows far too well because he has walked every step of them, and he knows that in another day the best part of his world will end once more.
It happens again and again, their world recycling itself as one end is traded for another. That is until the inevitable reality of their circumstances brings Shiro and Keith to a standstill, leaving them with a choice hinging on their faith in the universe.

Keith and Shiro find each other in every life. (A series of connected AUs)
1. Shiro will do whatever it takes to promote peace between his nation and Keith’s. Even if that means staying quiet about the way the prince makes his heart ignite with the power of a thousand suns.
2. Shiro doesn’t have a soulmate anymore, but he finds the next best thing in a boy in his astrobiology course.
3. Selkies are never safe, not when Hunters are near. Keith breaks Shiro out of the laboratory facility he was taken to, but Keith is captured in the process. Shiro needs to go back for Keith, but he can’t when his ability to take his human form has been stolen away.
4. Keith takes care of Shiro after he escapes from a Fire Nation prison, his arm irreparably burned. Hoping to take down the Fire Lord, they search for a new way for Shiro to bend the elements, confronting Shiro’s fear of fire along the way.
5. A Galra rebel breaks Shiro out of prison, asking for his help in shutting down a weapon that threatens the lives of the entire planet Princess Allura rests on. Shiro’s Altean heritage will allow him to destroy the crystal that powers it, but not without a cost.

while it is unfortunate that adam died, i think you guys are taking things sooooo much farther than they really are. adam was literally just a plot device to show that shiro is interested in men. that’s literally all his character was there for. and while the crew shouldn’t have hyped their relationship as much as they did, we were not queerbaited by them. they were broken up and were no longer together!! the only people who queerbaited us are ourselves for making up head canons of shiro and adam still being together once he got back. that isn’t canon, just our own fantasy!! and i’m tired of people saying they killed off the lgbt rep….they didn’t!! shiro is the main lgbt representation and that’s it! he’s the one we are suppose to be focusing on, not his ex who was there for a minute tops to once again show that shiro likes men! he doesn’t have to be in a relationship in order for his gayness to be valid and legitimate. shiro is a strong poc disabled man and is gay, and that’s so so amazing on its own!! stop overlooking everything and being entitled to how the show writes it story. respect and love what we have, takashi shirogane.

People are protesting that we must boycott the film Bohemian Rhapsody because, and I quote, “the trailer erases Mercury’s homosexuality by having him flirt with a woman and whitewashes him!” Which is funny, because these people are basically erasing Freddie Mercury’s bisexuality and his relationship with Mary Austin and whitewashing Rami Malek at the same time in order to back their shitty excuse of an argument.
Now, repeat with me:
Freddie Mercury wasn’t gay, he was bisexual. Rami Malek is Egyptian.
Freddie Mercury wasn’t gay, he was bisexual. Rami Malek is Egyptian.
Freddie Mercury wasn’t gay, he was bisexual. Rami Malek is Egyptian.
Freddie Mercury wasn’t gay, he was bisexual. Rami Malek is Egyptian.
This has been a PSA.
there's this one where lance goes on a europe trip by himself and somehow keeps meeting up with keith in different countries, I'm sorry if that's vague?? but I've been looking for days and I can't find it.
oh man i hope you mean this fic, bc i love!- Vallie
Foreign Scenes by bwyn (13/13 | 110,581 | Teen and Up)
Lance has been dreaming of travelling since the first time he heard stories from his family as a child. Now, having finally the time and money to do it, he goes on a trip to Europe to see some of the most culturally rich cities on the continent. Except he keeps bumping into the same guy over and over again, in random cities, doing stupid shit, and ultimately dragging Lance into his trouble, too.
Basically an AU in which Lance and Keith become impromptu travel buddies and get into trouble.
whats your opinion on season 8? and will you ever be making any post cannon fics?
i loved it. i loved the Lance and Allura plot line, i loved the battle scenes, i loved how it ended (even though it completely broke me. i shall never heal ffs). i’m sad that it’s over tbh :(
if an idea for post canon comes up, i will definitely write it! with the new season, i already have a ton of new fics popping into my head that i plan on writing - i’ve just gotta find the time
