Voltron Season 7 Review

Demigods meet Shadowhunters

Ok, so let’s get this started with headcannons that are close to my heart: Cassandra Clare’s Shadowhunters meeting Rick Riordan’s Demigods! • So I think this would start of as most things in Camp Half-Blood does, with a prophecy • I’d imagine it would go something like this : “three half-bloods, Born of angels and gods, Will fight against the greatest odds To fight the monsters of the deep, For these worlds should never meet In either peace or grief this will end To make both foes And friends” • Meanwhile this whole mess got started because Zeus knocked up the wrong girl, a Shadowhunter girl. • It’s not Clary, it’s Emma. • So now on top of all the paritbati stuff, she has to deal with that she is definitely not carrying a normal Shadowhunter baby, because, while she doesn’t know that the father is Zeus, she does know that the dude was not a Shadowhunter or a mundane. • So she does the next best thing she can think of: she runs away. • In her mind she thinks it’s for the best: the best for both Julian and for her child. • A few months later, Clary and Jace are on a date at Coney Island, when they go to the beach, they meet this man selling shaved ice, so they go ahead and grab some. But Clary could sense that something wasn’t right. • And she was right. Since Zeus started the ball rolling, his brothers had to follow his lead, the dude with the shaved ice was Poseidon. And he put some magic potion in Clary syrup so that she could carry his child without Poseidon ever having to “do it” with her ( first off, the gods have come up with very unconventional ways of having their demigod children over the years. Two, Poseidon knew that there was no way to get to Clary with Jace, because she’s to loyal for that. And three, about why Clary specifically and not someone single, he had sort of a crush on Clary and because of her status as a hero, if the child came from her, then the Clave might be less likely to exile it.) • Hades now has to sire a child with a Shadowhunter but goes a slightly less than ideal route with this one, he goes what I like to call the Heracles route, because Zeus went this route to site Heracles in the myth, Hades disguises himself as a lady’s husband, knocks her up, leaves, at which point her actual husband returns and does the same thing. • It’s Tessa if your wondering. Hey, at least Persephone isn’t gonna be out to get the kid and the parents for something they had no control over *cough* Hera*cough*. This is gonna be part one for this and I’ll upload part two later, but for now this is it. What do you guys think?

May 5 is the Day of Awareness for Missing and Murdered Indigenous Women, Girls, and Two-Spirit People. (Also known as Red Dress Day.)

Show your support and pass on your strength by wearing red on May 5, and raising awareness. And if you have never read the Reclaiming Power and Place report, you can do so here.

Additionally, while the day is typically centred in Turtle Island, let us also not forget our international cousins, especially in Palestine and Sudan.

Ever After High

Okay, so I really hope EAH isn’t over with. I really liked it and I was super invested in it, way more than MonsterHigh at the time it was released (I haven’t seen much of the MH reboot yet though). In my opinion, EAH had better storyline. Just putting that out there.

Only a Sith Deals in Absolutes

Consider, Sith Obi-Wan undercover as a Jedi? Mullet Sith Obi-Wan? On the name Darth Tyche, Tyche is the Greek goddess of chance, and chance can either be good or bad. Considering that Anakin was named after Ananke, the Greek goddess of inevitability, I thought it would be rather fitting. On his tunics, they’re the same color as Anakin’s when he gets older.

HECK YEAH!!

this is a maddie hatter appreciation post. reblog if you love maddie hatter

So, I kinda love rendering armor now.

Keep the Jedi Out of It

With input from @atagotiak (Tia), @gelpenss (Gel), and @thisarenotarealblog (Doc).

Standard initial premise: Clones take over the Republic after Fox kills Palpatine.

Fun AU Twist: in order to keep people from trying to fuck over the Jedi, and also as a backup because they trust the Jedi to at least try to save them after the initial hubbub goes down, and also as a bit of a vindication for those who don't like their Jedi... the clones arrest all the Jedi and just keep them in the brigs etc. until they figure out how to break the news to the galaxy that Palpatine was a bigger problem than previously anticipated.

"Why did the Jedi not stop you?" "Great question! We arrested them." "...all of them?" "Yes." "On what grounds?" "On 'they would have stopped us from killing the Chancellor' grounds."

"The Jedi couldn't stop you from arresting them?" "We just kind of told them 'here, hold this' and then put the force cuffs on. It was really easy, actually, they trust us way too much, it's kinda scary. A few of them passed out without the Force to keep them awake and the medics got pissed they hadn't been sleeping." "...you're saying you did this for their own good?" "No, we did it so we could kill the Chancellor."

Tia:

Anakin would def be upset. What would the other jedi be like? Mostly exasperated? I imagine a few would be like “well I guess I’m stuck here. I’m gonna have a nap”

Doc:

Obiwan finds a corner he likes and conks out in 5 minutes with the power of long experience

Gel:

At least one or more of the Jedi is like. WEIRDLY zen about it. Like “yeah if he arrested me there’s DEFINITELY a good reason and they’ll all tell me eventually”

Like the reason O66 worked in large part was that the Jedi trusted the clones, which means that you could easily argue that without even murder-of-said-Jedi on the mind, it would be even easier to just. Trick them.

Rex was uncomfortable about arresting Anakin for "Palpatine's his friend and he'll hate me" reasons so Kix just arrested both of them himself. They don't tell Anakin what's going on even when he grills Rex in their shared cell. Anakin's under the impression this is a 'you haven't been taking care of yourself' medic arrest.

Ahsoka had to share a cell with Yularen and they played cards because Ahsoka wanted to work on her Sabacc-without-Force-Cheating skills.

Some of the arrested Jedi have tea parties with the clones who arrested them. Mostly I'm imagining this as being Mundi. Bacara is off handling Various Things and the shinies put in place to guard Ki-Adi while the Coruscant problem is handled just sit down and have some tea with him while he teaches them Jedi philosophy, because Mundi strikes me as very "grandpa tells you stories to try and relate to the youth and he's not great at it but he sure is trying to be a good grandpa, and he's a bit out of the loop but he's putting in the effort, he got you some of those Pokey-mans you like for the holidays and everything."

"It's been three days, are you going to tell me why this was all necessary?" "Chancellor's a Sith Lord." "WHAT?" "It's fine, Fox killed him, but we couldn't have the Jedi stopping us, or like... getting accused of organizing it. So we just arrested, uh... everyone over the age of three?"

Tia:

Im just imagining Depa in a cell, sometime before the assassination is done: Grey: yeah so we’re killing Palpatine, for uh. Reasons. Depa: well I feel like I should disapprove, but….

Gel:

Anakin is spinning conspiracies about mind control because why else would they do this and the clones are just like. 😬“well yes but actually no”

Cody: No hard feelings but we do need Fox to do the plan. Chancellor's evil. Obi-Wan, not at all convincingly, especially after the explanation: Oh no... the Chancellor... whatever shall I do... Cody: ...do I even need to put you in cuffs? Obi-Wan: For the sake of protocol, yes.

Doc:

Ponds: we're going to kill the chancellor Mace, who got pressured to give the chancellor access to a 10-year old: legally, I cannot endorse this.

"We arrested the Jedi." "...and they LET you?" "Yeah, they assumed it was for a plan, which it was, but they assumed it was 'we're being watched by Separatists, play along' reasons and not, you know, killing the Chancellor."

Bly: General Secura, you're under arrest. Aayla: Wh--On what charges? Bly: Uh.... it's a sex thing? Aayla: ..............sure, why not.

Monnk: General Fisto, you're under arrest. Kit: Why? Monnk: ....reasons. Kit: ........yeah, okay.

Nobody even bothers to tell Shaak Ti, she's so far away that she can't do anything and really they just. Don't tell her she has a long-distance call coming in.

The only Jedi that don't just get arrested with zero fuss are the ones that are in active battle zones far enough away that it's not worth the deaths that would follow, Anakin, and 'I don't trust clones' types like Krell.

And the ones in-Temple, which is admittedly a lot, but we're going to ignore that and say the clones just triggered a reactive shut-down protocol that had metal going over windows and stuff.
