Lance: Is Anyone Else Scared?

Thank you so much for this!! I feel like not enough people know about or respect Jewish holidays.

Just a note: if someone around you is fasting during Yom Kippur, please don't ask them why or question their decision. It's incredibly disrespectful and very annoying. L'Shana Tova!

Since we have some Jewish holidays coming up, let’s talk about how to interact with them

On this thursday is Rosh Hashanna:

- this is the jewish new year, we are entering the year 5778. It comemorates when adam and eve were created.

- If you see someone jewish, or have jewish friends and family, say “L’Shana Tova (Le-Sha-Nah-Toe-Vah). It’s a greeting and a wish for a happy new year!

- We dip apples in honey to remind us of the sweetness of life and to bring sweetness into ourselves for a new year

-We eat a circular challah to symbolize the cycles of time, the challah often has raisins in it to add extra sweetness

-This is a happy holiday, full of joy

Beginning on Friday, September 30th is Yom Kippur:

- This is the jewish day of atonement, when we think about our wrongdoings of the past year and think about how we can commit to doing better in the next year.

- Many Jewish people fast, abstaining from food and water from sundown to sundown. The fast is roughly 25 hours. HOWEVER, if you need to eat, you may. There are lots of reasons that people may not fast, like recovering from an eating disorder, a medical condition like diabetes, or having to take medication with food. The elderly, children, and pregnant people should not fast.

- This is a solemn holiday, many people spend all day in synagogue in deep prayer. 

- On Yom Kippur, wish someone a peaceful or meaningful fast. Some people may take offense to the concept of having an “easy” or “enjoyable” fast because Yom Kippur is not about ease or comfort. 

- There is a breaking of the fast at sundown, this is usually a joyous event

Together, these make up the High Holy Days, the most important week in Judaism.

shiro: so keith, what does your ideal bf look like?

keith, imagining lances pretty tan skin, cinnamon colored freckles, soft, wind tousled hair, and infectious smile: mothman

Headcanons on how the paladins chill out?

•Shiro rarely ever takes time to chill, and when he does, it’s because the other Paladins forced him to. -One time, Keith (aided by Hunk, of course) had to actually pin him down to make him stop training. -When he does take a break, it’s to make sure everyone’s doing alright, looking over battle plans and catching up on alien literature he’s actually a huge fuckin book nerd ok. -He always gets dragged into the Paladin’s movie nights and, though he won’t admit it, he loves Disney so goddamn much.

•In his free time, Lance has tried to sneak off to alien bars gay bars to meet cute girls and boys. -On one abandoned planet, he found two long scraps of metal and bent them into needles so he could knit. He’s made everyone sweaters and gave Keith a giant floppy Santa hat (Keith secretly loves it).-Once and a while, he’ll set up a kind of spa and forces the other Paladins to let him give them face masks and massages and paint their nails.

•Hunk cooks, of course. He tries to find new ways to work with food goo, and tests out different ingrediants Allura finds him on other planets. -He loves taking long naps (and not getting woken up by attacking Galra) and checks in with the others to see what they’re up to, if they need any help or support from him and is down to cuddle at all times. 

-He also works with Pidge, exploring the castle and checking out all the cool technology it has to offer, making sure that everything is functioning.

•Keith will spend hours just zoned out, staring at nothing or playing absently with his knife until someone shakes him out of it. 

-He creates these crazy fitness-oriented contests and basically forces everyone to fight him or do push-ups or kickbox until they can’t feel their legs. 

-He can’t whistle and he is the most tone-deaf person you’ll ever meet, thus he hums so goddman much. He denies it, but sometimes he’ll just sit and hum his favorite songs, thinking about earth.

•Pidge, obviously, would spend pretty much all of her down time working with her tech. 

-When she isn’t using her computers  to track the Galra or search for Matt, she’s coding, making new programs, taking alien teach apart and making new robots and machines out of the pieces. 

-One time she holed up in her room for an entire day, making a video game and spent the next 48 hours testing it playing it non stop with Lance.
