Safe to say, AJ is a bit salty about allurance.

So just like we predicted…that ending pretty much sucked! Fanfic writers, we’ve all prepared for this. Let’s get typing
OKAY OKAY BUT IMAGINE. A soulmate AU in which your soulmate is revealed by a kiss. The downside is that if you kiss the wrong person you cause major pain to your soulmate—it’s the only way to tell that the kiss isn’t genuine. (Also if actual soulmates kiss they can TELL it’s meant to be because soulmate magic. And sparkles.)
I’d like to think that Galra have a special instinct and are naturally drawn to their soulmates through a magic force that normal humans don’t have—so Keith is automatically drawn to Lance from the start without knowing why. It’s only when his mother tells him when they’re traveling together that he understands Lance is probably his soulmate.
And then, Lance’s date with Allura happens.
Keith is torn because he still isn’t sure 100% if Lance is the one for him and he KNOWS how much Lance likes Allura so even though it breaks his heart he gives him encouragement to go after her. And then on their date Lance kisses Allura and there’s no magic and no sign that they’re soulmates, and Lance is CRUSHED because he thought for sure Allura was meant for him but she isn’t. They sorta discuss their relationship and whether or not they want to try being together (the whole “Some people can be happy without their soulmates” deal) and Lance really wants to try for both of them because he likes her so much so they agree to give it a shot
And in the midst of all this, Keith is curled up in his room, in immense pain, because his soulmate just kissed someone not meant for them and he’s sure it’s Lance and that the date went well and he doesn’t know how to feel because he knows it’s wrong
Then Lance comes back and Shiro tells him Keith had a bond reaction (what they call the negative reaction to a kiss) and it doesn’t take long for Lance to connect the dots and he struggles over whether or not he wants to stay with Allura and keep causing Keith this pain or break it off with her and be with his intended soulmate and it’s a MESS THANKS GOODNIGHT
Alright guys listen up
In know we’re upset over vld season 7, but it’s a mess right now. While I agree that Voltron did stink it up this recent season, I feel that a large part of the fandom has sort of blown up out of proportion.
I’m just as sad as everyone else that Adam died pretty much immediately after we were introduced to him and introduced to the lgbt rep between him and Shiro, but I feel as if calling voltron homophobic or queer baiting is unnecessary. Yes it’s upsetting but who knows exactly why he was killed off. It could have been directly for the plot: Shiro’s past with Adam consisting of Adam not wanting his bf to go out in space with his illness and a subtle foreshadowing of Adams death when he said if Shiro went he wouldnt be there to greet him back. It’s tragic when that becomes a reality and when Shiro arrives at the Garrison with the others to find out his partner died. Of course I’m not completely dissing the fact that Voltron killed the only lgbt cannon representation in the show but we have no clue if there will be more. We have a whole other season guys.
A part I agree with is how lame Hunk’s arc was. I feel as if they should’ve taken the random scenes with Lance and Allura and put that time into Hunk’s character development.(I’ll go over Lance and Allura later) Hunk has been deserving an ark forever and we finally get one that consists of some leadership roles and a few flashbacks. We’ve noticed how Hunk has grown over the past two seasons but I feel as if he was written no different than that. He is on a journey to get his family but is unable to and then is turned back to saving the earth. The least they could’ve done was give him his parents- then he would be rejuvenated and even more ready to fight because he is whole again.
Okay, I’m not an anti shipper of Lance and Allura, but I want to discuss what the heck is happening in season 7. Allura was into Lotor and even went further as to kissing him just to find out he was inslaving the last bit of altaens to suck the living juice out of them. So after six seasons of rejecting Lance’s feelings, and even figuring out about his crush in the last season, she still rejects him. So now that Lotor is out of the picture, she is starting to crawl her way into Lance’s feelings and it’s not okay. It’s unfair how she is teating him in this season. He’s been interested in her for the longest time and he’s her second choice. It’s unfair how she is playing with her heart.
Speaking of second choice, the klance in this season wasn’t as much as I’d hoped it would be. Voltron said Lance would end up with someone he needed, not wanted, and that he’d be someone’s first choice. You’ve probably seen tons of posts over klance being end game and it does make sense. I won’t get into it or else I’d have to split this post in two. What I want to discuss are the little things. During the game show episode where lance and Keith chose each other- lance’s comment over the fact that he thought Keith was the future??? That’s beautiful and yet Keith responds pretty rudely but it’s just bad writing. They could’ve had a legit response to why he chose Lance. I mean, did anyone else notice how soft Keith had looked through out the whole episode and in that only moment he grumpily frowns? But another thing I’d like to point out is all the little actions that Keith is giving lance. Not hunk, or pidge, or even Allura, but lance specifically. So with this growing trust and friendship growing why toss in Allura and for some reason Acxa who we’ve only seen Keith interact with her like twice. It doesn’t add up. If Keith ends up with Lance in the end it will be his first choice so why add some random galra chick who has been against them as of late?
So don’t yell at me after reading this because we are all entitled to our own opinions. I understand completely why there is an uproar in the fandom right now toward the seventh season but I feel as if a large portion of us have given up on the show over this saying that is is the worst and that you’re never watching it again. It’s sad. Do none of us remember the good parts of the show? The past two seasons have been fantastic and the plot has been crazy. There have been pretty weak seasons before and this unfortunately is one of them. Just have faith and believe the show will turn out for the better. Thank you for listening to my Ted Talk lol
Can we take a moment to remember not ever Klance shipper is an anti and that there are very many wonderful klance shippers out there that sheith, allurance, and any other shipper can be friends with.
We all love the same show after all
Also, I am sorry to any non-anti klance shipper who has been harassed because of antis.
