Here’s the drawing I made to accompany @jade-clover ‘s story in @voltronauzine2018, with the theme Mythology!

New headcanons:
I decided to share what I think are the OG Paladins’ sexual and romantic orientations.
Zarkon is very heterosexual and heteroromantic. He’s straight-laced (pun intended) and traditional, and honestly probably hadn’t thought much about romance until Honerva dropped into his life.
Alfor is, in contrast, very, very bisexual and biromantic. He had a crush on Fala for the longest time, but, let’s be honest, he may have had a crush on Coran for a little bit and he definitely had a crush on Blaytz for a while.
Blaytz is pansexual and panromantic because the more I think about it, the less I can imagine him limiting himself to two genders. Female, male, non-binary, or anywhere on the gender spectrum - he would flirt with you.
Gyrgan I am less sure about. I want to say either heterosexual or bisexual, but honestly he is panromantic because that man is all about cuddles and love and has plenty to go around.
Trigel has zero interest in any gender. She is very asexual and very aromantic, but she does find it fascinating and (dare she say it) cute in observation. She teases her friends relentlessly, especially Alfor (the youngest).
New headcanon:
In the early days of their marriage, Honerva would often shift to try to look more Galra, as there were many Galrans unhappy that their emperor had married and Altean. Zarkon eventually told her that she needn’t change herself for anyone, that he liked her just the way she was, and that if anyone argued he would fight them to the death.
(Though touched, Honerva thought he was kidding. He wasn’t. Alfor had had to hold him back from death matches for reasons akin to this many, many times.)

I can finally post the two fics I wrote for the Zaggar Zine@galrashipzine! (The banner comes from a WIP of mine that I need to finish one of these days.) Thanks again to everyone involved with the zine!
Scientific Method: Zarkon wants to know more about the chief researcher on the Rift project, but he has protocol to consider. When she asks for his involvement, he is only too glad to offer her whatever assistance the Galra Empire can provide—but is that the best way to get to know someone?

After returning from death, Zarkon is changed. His planet is destroyed, his friendships fractured, and though his wife is alive, she remembers nothing from before, not even her name.
