hey.

you okay?

that was pretty uh. weird.

Hello, Keith.
I am doing alright, thank you for asking. How have you been?
Yes... it was certainly... something!

i'm good. i guess.

tell me about it. being out of control of my own self... wasn't something i'd want to deal with. i'm just glad we were together for it.

I do hope I did not upset your friends. Your friend Lance especially seemed concerned... rightfully so.
As awful as it was, I'm strangely relieved about that, too.

he's pretty mad at me. i mean i don't blame him but he could give me a bit of a break. i doubt you're the one who upset him.

there was a lot of damage. i heard woden was killed? not for long though. he's someone we'll have to watch out for in the future.

Does he not know that Woden is responsible for what happened?
For now. Cassandra, Baal and the other actual pantheon gods have it under their control. I will trust in them to handle Woden, but if they need help then I'll gladly assist.

[ It really does make her skin crawl when she thinks about how Woden was able to brainwash them so easily. ]

Quite a number of civilians were killed by another imPort who had been brainwashed, I believe.

i'm sure he does but -- doesn't excuse what i did.
same actually. i'd like to help where i can.

i'm trying to forget that. i'm not surprised, but how can someone just sit back and watch so many people die? it's not right.

It's a sad thought.

[ But the world could be callous. She learned it long ago. ]

I wish there was something we could do to fix it.

maybe there is. i mean there has to be a way to make it up to the natives who suffered. to show that we're not callous and that we care.

i could talk to the rest of voltron and see about maybe doing some sort of charity benefit? we could likely get the ambassadors involved to try and rebuild relations.

I've been helping with a community project in Nonah. It does feel good to build something with your own two hands.
Voltron?

oh? is that the thing princess allura is working on?

voltron is

well a giant robot that protects the universe. i'm the pilot of the black lion. allura pilots the blue lion.

Allura is a princess?!
Wait, then this means you are one of the paladin! Heroes of justice!

she is. of the planet altea. though her planet,
unfortunately doesn't exist any more.

i am. though heroes of justice might be going a little far.

[ She sobers up when she reads that about Allura's planet.

It actually gives her pause. It's hard for Haru to imagine losing her entire world. ]

I'm terribly sorry to hear.
Allura told me a little bit about you all. Defenders of the universe. Fighting an evil empire.

it's not an easy knowing what happened.

it's difficult. there's a lot at stake and before i arrived? we were on our way back to earth.

Protecting a whole universe sounds like an incredibly big responsibility.
How long had you been away from Earth?

it is. i wasn't sure how to handle it at first. especially being a leader.

that's complicated. about a year for everyone else. i've been gone three due to...space time mechanics.

Edited 2018-09-26 04:53 (UTC)

It must be fairly scary to have to lead a team into battle, but I am sure you're a fine leader.

[ She reads that close to four times.

... nope, that goes over her head. ]

"Space time mechanics"?

the very basics of it are that my mother and i went through a space-time field called the quantum abyss. dark stars are orbited by dense neutron stars which causes pretty much everything in the area to be pulled in different directions.

it also causes intense solar flares that can trigger glimpses of the past and future. we went through the space field on a giant...whale like creature that could figure out how to navigate through it.

i don't know what better way to explain it.

[ ... none of that makes complete sense to her. ]

There are whales in space?

well they looked like whales. i don't really know what they were but they were... nice at least? they had their own atmosphere and ecosystem on their backs.

[ Her next response is delayed by a couple of minutes as she tries to parse the explanation above. ]

So... it sounds as if you went through a black hole of sorts? But this black hole did something with time?

yeah that sounds about right.

How did you and your mother escape?
