Whoa! [Hunk laughs] Holographic interface, awesome! This is way better than possessed mermaid planet tech. A little creepier, though. Uh, no offense. Just.. you know. Being teleported away from people I was standing right next to without being asked is a little rude where I come from.

On the up side, really digging the local food options so far. Tons better than space goo, not that I don't hold a respect for nutritionally dense jello with an oatmeal-like consistency. Here's to hoping it isn't gonna make me start chanting about how safe and warm I am.

And hey, speaking of, fingers crossed that I got tossed into here with my buddies. Anyone seen any other paladins of Voltron laying around? Well, hopefully not laying around. Hopefully, you know, standing. Like healthy non-injured people, which they mostly were like five seconds ago.

[... you know what, she's going to ignore him throwing shade at space goo because--]

Hunk?! Is it really you?!

[She seems thrilled to see him. Kind of odd, since the battle shouldn't have been that long, right?]

[im_a_leg]

Hey, Allura! [A relieved grin splits his face] Oh good, I'm not alone. What happened? More wormhole fun?

[patchricide]

That's... I suppose, yes? Given how unstable the wormhole was... [IF YOU CAN CALL THAT FUN...]

I was starting to worry that the rest of the paladins weren't going to show up! That you might have been picked up by some other trans-universal gate!

[im_a_leg]

No such luck. Guess you're just stuck with us. [A friendly smile]

When did the wormhole show up again though? None of us picked one up. Though I guess maybe we wouldn't have from inside the black lion, all things considered.

[He frowns. Speaking of--]

Is Shiro here too?

[patchricide]

"Again"? What, did you, Keith and Lance make it to the other side, then? ... are they with you??

[She catches that frown. Ugh. Tricky question.]

Yes. Not right at my location, but... he's here, on this planet. He came with us.

[redshitlord]

Yeah, dude, literally no worries. You're not gonna end up chanting anything unless it's like...

"Help I'm lost, I can't read weird Savrii words!"

...

So I mean.

You're good! Hi.

[im_a_leg]

[He laughs] I can handle that. Last time I got sucked into somewhere weird we were like, drugged by a sea space mind control thing that drugged our food. How evil is that? Who does that to food?

[redshitlord]

Whoa. You too?

That happened to us! Like, before the ship crashed but still. We got stuck on Party Planet for a year.

I mean, no big deal for me, but I guess humans have like major malfunctions with that.

[im_a_leg]

Yeah, we're kind of into eating and stuff. [He scratches at the back of his head, still grinning.] But aliens have some really cool culinary palettes! Once I found this tuber root on an alien planet that was a lot like a potato, except it was bright orange. Like glow in the dark orange. Tasted like one too! I mean, I puked my guts out for awhile after but I think I could build up a real resistance to it over time.

[redshitlord]

Oh, dude, no I mean like. You guys have super problems missing a year of stuff. And we don't. Us bots, I mean.

...

Did. Did you puke orange?

Hey, Shiro! You're okay! You're ... you don't sound okay.

[shiro2hero]

is this like the cookies again

[im_a_leg]

Cookies? Shiro, there aren't any cookies. Or if there are any cookies you should probably share, because that's just polite.

I'm real. Just got here a few minutes ago. Allura said we have a house and gave me the address. Is that where you are, or.. ?

hi man

[wallride]

You guys are called paladins? That's a lot better than the "driver of giant lions" Shiro told me.

[sounds cooler, too.]

Re: video

[im_a_leg]

[He laughs] Yeah, Shiro kinda has his own way of saying stuff sometimes. [Since he found out Shiro's here and mostly safe by now, he has wayy less anxiety about this than he would've ten minutes ago.]

I mean he's right, but paladins does make us sound less like we're driving around in giant bumper cars at a carnival or something.

Re: video

[wallride]

I was thinkin' more like... video game paladins! With the holy magic and stuff!

[the closest thing he can think of to that is reinhardt.]

And yeah, he does. I guess it goes without saying he's around, huh?

[im_a_leg]

Oh yeah totally! We have armor too, look! [He moves the camera down since he still has that armor on] Plus we all get fancy weapons that magically transform based on which paladins we are. We could totally be a video game. I would play that video game.

Yeah, Allura told me. And he sent me some uh, interesting texts.

[wallride]

What!! Immediately make a video game of your life, please!!

[THAT'S SO COOL??????]

--Ah. Yeah, he, uh. Was a little... extremely high on painkillers...

LATER, AT THE LION HOUSE

[pidge_out]

[So maybe Pidge missed Hunk a little. Maybe. A little. So that might be the reason she's just sitting on the counter in the kitchen while he bakes cookies, watching him like she hasn't seen anybody cook anything in months. ...Which is probably accurate, to be fair.]

I didn't even know we had the stuff here to make cookies.

[im_a_leg]

All you need is a few basics! Flour, salt, butter, eggs, sugar. Heck, you don't even know all of those. Did you know you can use bananas instead of eggs?

[He wipes his hands on his makeshift apron, ignoring the smear of flour across his cheek.] Besides, what's a house without the smell of something baking floating around?

[pidge_out]

[Pidge just tilts her head slightly to one side. Mainly because... cooking is not a thing she knows. At all.]

Technically, still a house. But I guess I get your point.

[im_a_leg]

[He grins, motioning Pidge over] Here, try some of this batter.

So how's it going, what'd I miss? Why were you beating up the blue kid?

[pidge_out]

[She refuses to get up for that. She will instead just scoot herself closer on the counter until she's close enough to just lean over to try it. Until she gets there, she'll do the question answering thing.]

Things are going, I guess. We've got a house, things are better than they were a few weeks ago. And Darin? You saw how messed up that washing machine got. He's kind of super technologically inept.

[And then she's trying the batter with a thoughtful little hum.] Mmm. It's good. Real sweet.
