Bro.. literal tingles..I CAN'T WAIT FOR THIS MOVIE!!! ♥️♥️♥️♥️
Candyman (2020) - “The origins of Candyman” short.
CANDYMAN, at the intersection of white violence and black pain, is about unwilling martyrs. The people they were, the symbols we turn them into, the monsters we are told they must have been.
10/10 im wet
lance tangoed in. ’allí es mi papí caliente. hola keith’
keith leaned forward, “oppa voltron style” he whispered sexily in korean.
keith said something in korean (A/N: i don’t know korean make soemthign up).
“ohhhh keith mi amante” the caramel blue pilot said, wrapping his yaoi arms around keith’s tiny asian body.
suddenly lance whipped his head arojnd. ‘its Coming’ he said.
“何ですか?"said shiro.
allura walked in. the light shone on her chocolate skin. her mocha colored hands flew to her mouth.
keith cried in korean.
hunk walked in. ‘who wants food’ he said in hawaiian. (i don’t really remember a lot about hunk lol!!! who is he again)
“oh mierda allura i was trying to seducir keith ” lance yelled in a sexy latin way.
keith collapsed onto the floor, “모든 알려진 법률에 따르면 항공, 벌이 없다. 날 수 있어야합니다. 그 날개는 너무 작아서 뚱뚱한 작은 몸을 땅에서 떨어 뜨리지 못합니다.” he cried out, his kimchi hitting the floor like la chancla on lance’s face back on earth. keith lay on the floor, his phone ringing out his favorite kpop song: oppa gangnam style.
lance cried, cuban tears streaming down his face. “keith mi amor te muriaste demasiado pronto” he said, eating a burrito.
“allura this is all your culpa” lance said, in spanish for the last bit.
allura’s mocha brown starbucks hot chocolate hand was on her face. “Oh no!! I didn’t mean to!” but it was too late. keith was already muerto (that’s spanish for dead)
coran fell out of the vents speaking australian. “im going to pop on over to the tiddlywinks and have a cuppa with a few of th’ lads since i have shilling or two” coran said.
“何 the fuck” shiro said.
keith cried korean tears, “i’m 죄송합니다, lance” he cried. “but at least i got to 주사위 here with you, listening to my favorite kpop song because i am korean, oppa gangnam style.”
keith oppa gangnam styled his way to space korea heaven, lance crying into his taco.
“ファックあなた all, “shiro said. “i 大嫌い you”
