#theo is definitely some kind of oncologist......

[klanced]

Katie I'm going to beat your ass because of Theo. What happened to him, how is he doing? I want to see reunite with his Husband, dang it!

I was originally going to name Theo “Marco”, but then Season 5 came out and Lance mentioned having a brother named Marco and I was like -_- 

Shiro and Theo met on a blind date that was set up by a mutual friend! 

Both of them ended up being almost an hour late to their date because of their busy work schedules, but luckily they both arrived at the exact same time.

Being late for dates becomes a running joke between them because it happens so often lmao 

They met when Shiro was 23 and Theo was 25; Shiro had just started working full-time at the Garrison, and Theo was nearing the end of medical school.

Theo started college when he was 17 because he’s a #prodigy (also because he skipped third grade), and ended up graduating early as well thanks to his accelerated undergrad program. 

They both hit it off immediately and started dating quite happily for a few months. Then, at the end of the school year, Theo graduated from med school and ended up accepting a residency offer at a hospital a state over.

Although Theo isn’t actually that far away, the demands of his residency program + Shiro’s responsibilities at the Garrison meant they basically had a long-distance relationship. Fortunately, technology in the Voltron universe seems to be a little bit more advanced than our own, so they had no trouble staying in contact (Skype dates, babey!!)

Theo was the one to propose :’) 

He accidentally dropped the ring in the grocery store and decided “fuck it” when he realized Shiro saw it.

After the Kerberos Mission failed and Shiro was declared to be KIA, Theo flung himself back into his work.

“I’m fine,” Theo lied.

He formed a support network with Colleen Holt and Shiro’s close relatives, though he focused more on helping Colleen with her grief instead of dealing with his own.

Theo also tried to stay in contact with Keith and encouraged him to stay in school, something that only lasted a few months before Keith was booted from the Garrison and dropped off the face of the Earth.

Keith’s disappearance did Not help Theo’s stress levels.

Unlike Keith and Pidge, Theo wanted nothing to do with the Garrison after the accident. Obviously he also wanted answers as to what the hell actually happened, but asking questions required interacting with the people who left Shiro to die in space, which was something he couldn’t stomach. 

After the funeral (which was televised, to Theo’s complete distaste), a Garrison official approached Theo and asked him when he’d like to clear out Shiro’s room at the Garrison.

Theo, rather appropriately, lost his shit and almost had to be escorted out of his goddamn husband’s goddamn funeral reception.

Theo is the reason why Commander Iverson has to wear an eye-patch.

Misc:

They’re both broke millennials (even with all his scholarships and financial aid, Theo has SO MUCH student debt) and for a really long time they considered getting married at the courthouse just to save on having a wedding.

But then Theo’s mom bullied Commander Iverson into letting Theo and Shiro have their ceremony and reception at the Garrison for free of charge.

Theo’s mom: You’re throwing my son-in-law into God knows where space, the least you could do is pay for his wedding!

Iverson: Ma’am, the taxpayers-

Theo’s mom: I am the taxpayers!

Commander Holt was the officiant of their wedding :’)

Shiro wore his uniform because he knows Theo thinks he looks super sexy in it.

Iverson was also invited to the wedding as thanks for the venue, even though Theo hates his guts. He and Shiro compromised by sending Iverson the expensive gift list.

Iverson gave them a wicked expensive toaster. 

Months later, after the Garrison blamed Shiro for the failure of the Kerberos Mission, Iverson opened his door to find a smashed to hell toaster on his step.

Theo was kind enough to include the receipt with it.
