Hey, so, this isn't a chapter, sorry guys. But I've got some stuff to say that you will want to hear.

After some reflection, I have decided to end this story at chapter four. Why you might ask? In short, the VLD fandom has gotten a little wild for me. I would like to explain a little further my thoughts on season 7, which honestly is only the catalyst for the absolute madness the fandom has become. So, if you would like to know more than the short and simple, read below my dudes.

Alright, so I suppose this was a long time coming. The Voltron fandom, as many of you probably know, went off like a bomb of hostile feelings after season 7. We got our hopes up (I say we because I too was a little naive in my high expectations for this season) , and then things didn't work out how we wanted. So what does the fandom do? Throw a temper tantrum of terrifying proportions. I don't think that I can brave the hate going around right now, and I can't find it in me to "finish" this fic.

However, in regards to this fic, it has, in my mind, fulfilled its intended purpose. I had had some grand ideas of an action showdown and spotlight for some background characters, but even without the mess right now I honestly would have probably had problems finishing it. So, it's done. Please don't hate me too much.

In regards to my thoughts on season 7 exclusively, for those of you who may be curious (what the hell, truth of the matter is I wanna say my two cents), I have a few things to say. First of all, I do believe in my writer heart that they handled Adam the best way possible. Introducing him so late in the show made it impossible for much development or attachment to occur, and he was obviously marked as an important character. As a writer who began with writing 2-3 page stories within a half an hour for competition, I learned very quickly and early on that for the most emotional impact in a story, normally tragedy is the surest street to go down. So, when they killed Adam, I was a little angry (okay, a lot), but I wasn't surprised. And I hope you haven't forgotten Shiro's finale speech at the end of the last episode, and when he mentioned loss and mourning (and a very poetic and beautifully worded line, mind you) the screen focused on Adam's plaque. Cinematography is not something to be taken lightly, and even though he was speaking in a vague sense, it is clearly stated in the "language" of the visual we were given that he was speaking about Adam. That, my friends, is when I was content with season 7.

In regards to Klance, I'm a fan of the ship too, but I have one message for those of you who are angry that it might not be canon: Suck it up. It's not a romantic centered show. It's not about your ship. Grow up. It doesn't have to be canon for you to like it, so get over the small facts and get on with you lives. Let people live theirs. Please. I'm so tired of this.

Anyways, that's all folks, please comment if you would like to discuss with me about anything. Other than that, peace out.
