[At the fooling comment, the mice who've been sitting up on the table squeak something that makes Allura pause and blush a bit.]

Ah... in truth, I might have needed some help on that front.

[Small, tiny, mousy help that was there for Shiro calling her by a girly name? ... HOW they knew it was a girly name by Earth standards is a mystery, I mean come on, we have a ten thousand year old alien with "Smythe" as a last name!]

[ It might feel weird if everyone decided to grow their hair out long, even Pidge is putting a limit on how long hers is going to get. ]

I'll put it my list of tech to make, near the top. We'll name it the Supercharged Manedryer.

[ Or something equally ridiculous because of course it needs a name if they're going to sell to the general population.

Her eyes go to the mice as they squeak, obviously talking to the princess only to look at Allura in the mirror at the confession. ]

No secret is safe on the ship with the mice gossiping.

[ Though Pidge doesn't sound too upset by it. She does wonder how Keith and Coran found out and suspects Hunk found out during their early days of Paladin training when he was digging around in her mind. ]

[Not to mention her backpack.]

Ah, no. If it helps, I have asked them to not snoop quite as much. It'd be impossible to stop them completely, but... I've realized I was wrong and I need to respect your privacy and trust more.

[Because holy crow, did that conversation blow up in her face. Multiple times. Almost literally even, towards the end.]

[greencosmicdust]

[ That too. ]

Even if they tell you something, you can just ask me about it. [ Not in a roundabout fashion because yes, that did not get the answer Allura was expecting. ] At first I was trying to keep secrets but I'm not anymore.

[ And if there is something Pidge isn't comfortable sharing, she can say that much. ]

You guys are kind of like... my family now. Everyone who's part of Team Voltron, that is.

[Allura pauses for a second... before gently wrapping her arms around Pidge from behind, careful not to mess with the smaller girl's dress. Around them the air grows pleasantly warmer and faintly sparkles.]

Thank you, Pidge. I feel the same way about all of you too.

[Especially since she's actually had a chance to get to know them here and back home, and especially with Pidge through her relationship with Matt.]
