All About the Hype Train // Canon is Voltron: Legendary Defender // SPOILERS

Wow. You really don't go for subtle, do you? I mean, I guess technically the Black Lion would be the male leader of the pride while the others would be the lionesses, but still that's probably not how most people see it.

Not sure if I should be glad you're considering just doing memes as opposed to one of these "games" or not. I've kind of got more important things on my mind. Y'know, saving the universe, finding my family, that sort of thing.

[He's trying not to have an amused look on his face but it's really hard to wipe away. Poor Pidge.] It could be worse. The name, I mean.

[greenlioness]

Shiro? You're here already?

[lukeim_yurlin]

Mundanes rarely do "subtle."

[Oh hush, Dezel. You can be about as a blunt as brick to the back of the head at times, yourself.]

As for memes versus games, one isn't necessarily better than the other.

[andiwillformthehead]

[He winced, scratching a hand at the back of his head.]

So it seems. "Just lurking" my mun says. We'll see how well that goes, but I don't think she's activity looking for anything. Which is good. I don't really have time to mess around else where. Like you said, we've got things to do.

[greenlioness]

Great. Why's that?

[greenlioness]

Yeah, mine's pretty much the same. Guess she figured that it'd be good to just keep it low-key for a while before she makes a choice. Can't say I'm too upset about that.

[lukeim_yurlin]

Because humiliation, injury, illness and even death can occur in memes, just as they can in games. The only difference is that in a game, the setting remains constant.

[AN ABSOLUTE WELLSPRING OF POSITIVITY HERE.]

[andiwillformthehead]

I think it's a good plan of action. I'm hoping they'll get bored after a short time and let us get back to work.

[greenlioness]

[And grimacing so hard over here. Why, mun? Why did you do this?]

I'm not sure which is worse. On the one hand, not having it be a constant thing isn't bad. For another, that might mean she can do all kinds of awful things simultaneously.

[Mun innocently whistles.]

[greenlioness]

Considering some of the people she lugs around in this "headspace" of hers, pretty sure my mun doesn't let go of people easily. Some of them have been in games for over six years, apparently.

[andiwillformthehead]

...

That's no good. Though... she sounds like you. Someone who wont back down, strong minded and stubborn. [Sorry Pidge, he's a bit amused by that.] Which isn't a bad thing.

[lukeim_yurlin]

Hence my statement before about one not necessarily being better than the other.

[...]

Why are you associated with a pride of lions, anyway?

[greenlioness]

Are you kidding? She's going to drive me crazy! She's already hunting for memes!

[greenlioness]

I'm one of the Voltron paladins. Meaning I pilot one of the lions that come together to form Voltron. Mine's the Green Lion.

[And going to show you a picture of all five Lions.]

[andiwillformthehead]

Good to know I'm not alone out there anymore. Mine keeps whining about the lack of other Voltron pilots on the memes already.

[A pause, then a brow raise] Consider it training?

[greenlioness]

My mun thinks it's because we're still relatively new and most people are nervous. Or something. She also is interested in what your mun may have found. She keeps finding sex memes and neither one of us is exactly leaping at those.

[And skeptical look at that last part.] You've got to be kidding.

[andiwillformthehead]

[Mental alarms go off. He sits up more at that.] Ah, yes, well... you don't need to go looking for anything she threw me at. Some of it isn't all that great. Most of the memes out there right now are, as you said, just... sex memes. I'm not exactly leaping at those either.

[He smiles a bit more though, just a bit, at the kidding part.] Would I kid you? [Maybe a little.]

[lukeim_yurlin]

[...one of the what with the who now? He's still trying to take those couple of sentences apart in his mind to make sense of them when the picture comes into play. Good thing his eyes are back to their original brilliant green.]

Huh. Robots.

[Also a good thing his experiences in a game over the last six months have introduced him to robots and what they are...sort of. He doesn't understand the technology involved, but in some cases that's not really necessary, anyway.]

So you ride the green one... Does it think for itself?

[He's met Baymax and Astro Boy and Zero, so this is an important question for a being of spiritual energy okay? Okay.]

[greenlioness]

Well, not exactly ride it. More like pilot it. And, yeah, Green's got a mind of its own but it usually lets me call the shots.

[greenlioness]

[What's with that reaction?] Why? Where'd your mun send you, too?

[Green Lion is inquisitive, remember? You've peaked her interest now.]

...Maybe. [It's hard to tell with you sometimes.]

[andiwillformthehead]

[His favorite would be the first one out here on the memes and things. He rubbed at his nose, shaking his head.] I don't remember. [Right.] Text from last night, I think. Other places too. She wasn't very hopeful.

[He did smile more at the 'maybe'. She's a lot like her brother; fun to tease, even if he doesn't do it too often.] Maybe. [he agreed]

[lukeim_yurlin]

[Pilot it... Huh. That plus the apparent scale in the image leads him to believe those things must be the size of small airships, at least.]

...so a partnership.

Unfortunate that you likely won't have have your lion with you at a constant while your mundane has you.

[greenlioness]

[Oh come on. How gullible do you think she is?] I've heard about the Texts From Last Night thing, but other places?

[greenlioness]

Yeah, kind of figured as much. [Siiiiigh.] It'd be easier if that wasn't the case. I don't think she'd argue with Green.

*Arms flailing* I love you

[lacking_toes_tolerant]

...I don't get it, you don't like anything like a lion.

Though green really looks good on you, kinda like Lisa.
