Yeah, I thought I needed a change of tone. Sometimes I can get a bit... negative.

This is something I wrote in the Furry Cafe ages ago and decided to put it here.
The approximate-science is all based on real science, for anyone who cares feel free to ask what any analogy is referring to.
Hey Ray, let me tell you story. It's the story of a pawful of atoms, about 7,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000 which seems like a lot but really isn't much for atoms.
Once upon a time, when these atoms were young, they were hydrogen and lived in a fancy, new, young star. Back then the whole universe was still pretty young and things were simple. The atoms were busy working with their atom friends to give life to the star. Boy, did they have some wild times! But giving life to a star is a tough job and it changes you. So it wasn't long before some of those atoms were helium, they were still the same but they were different too. They probably had squeaky voices!
But hydrogen or helium, they kept on making that star work, making light and heat. They did such a good job that there is still echos of that party today! But nothing stays the same for ever and even stars change. They get bigger and bigger and sometimes too big and explode BAM! And those atoms get shot out into space but that star dragged them back in. That can really leave a mark let me tell you and some of those helium atoms changed into other sorts of atoms and then that star party got started all over again.
This probably happened a few times before those atoms finally did escape and when on a crazy journey through space. Floating around doing space stuff. You know the sort of thing. Until they met up with a bunch of other atoms and hung out together. The thing about that though is once a star always a star and atoms like to get together and try and relive those good times and so the make a new star with all sorts of different atoms. And then that party gets going until it gets too big and off they go on their journey again.
Well our bunch of atoms they did that a bit until when they tried to reform a new star there wasn't enough other atoms and so the made a planet instead. It was a pretty crappy looking planet at first but it made for great foundations.
Anyway those atoms just kept on trying to find ways of getting together to have a party. So even when they formed little groups even those groups tried to join up and form bigger groups. Until there were blobs. They're like groups of groups of groups of atoms. And those blobs started bumping into each other and little bits fell off some and stuck onto others by accident.
There were so many weird blobs back then on that crappy planet. And only one in a billion was even a good blob. But those few good blobs found a way to group together. Then it was on like Donkey Kong! Once the good blobs formed teams those teams started competing to be the best blob. Some cooperated and some didn't, some had a good approach and some just got lucky, but those teams started building bigger and bigger teams. And the teams worked out they could join together like Voltron. More like vehicle force Voltron than Lion force Voltron probably, but that's not important.
And then those mighty Voltron forces started competing until he planet was crawling with them and wasn't so crappy anymore.
As they did their thing they developed more complex Voltron forces but they all still carried the blueprints of the older models with them. Because it's important to remember the past when you are only together for such a brief flash in time. And so those Voltron units which came after remembered those more complex ones in the same way.
Eventually the star that the planet orbits will continue the pattern and it's party will get too big and all the atoms from that crappy planet will be called back in to start a new party until they head back off on their journey through space.
Now I don't know about you but not matter how cool a Voltron force is, it's nowhere near as awesome as a bunch of star making cosmic wanderers. So even if you loved one and it was the best Voltron ever, it was only ever filling time before the next star-party. So don't be sad, just do what the teams do and remember the teams that have come and gone.
Because one of those Voltron unit is only about 7,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000 atoms, and it's important to remember the past when you are only together for such a brief flash in time.

I love you I love you
It's wrong but I do
I've tried so hard not to
I swear that it's true
If only you loved me
But I'm not for you
Then I'd still be sad
And you'd be sad too
I hope you are happy
That you're one of the few
Coz I love you I love you
And that's all I can do
