01 ✨ Homecoming
Who: Allura and anyone who happens to be dropping by
Where: Island Four, Beach House
When: October
Summary: Allura is reunited with her friends
Rating: Should be PG
Allura isn't entirely sure what to expect when Shiro's Skarmory touches down on the beach in front of building that seems charmingly antiquated to a person who grew up in a castle that is also a spaceship.
It looks like the kind of place someone could begin a fresh life. A new life.
It's a little daunting, this idea of starting over from scratch in a new, alien world. She might reinvent herself entirely but for her friends' presence; they tether her inexorably to her old life and the person they remembered from whatever point in time they'd been plucked.
She follows behind Shiro, equal parts nerves and excitement at the prospect of seeing them again. It doesn't feel like it's been long since they parted ways, but that parting was so bittersweet and none of them will have the slightest idea.
"I'm home."

[ Allura is seated on the couch in the beach house with her Swablu perched on her knees. She waves once at the screen, smiling pleasantly. ]
Hello! I'm Allura, and this is Blaytz. I'm very recently arrived and it seems proper to introduce myself and my new companion. [ Blaytz chirrups and flaps his little cloud wings, and she gives him a scritch in the floof under his beak. ] My friends have explained many things to me, but I've no doubt there is much more that I have yet to learn.
I look forward to meeting you all in my travels.

Al-te-ans?
[Now where did she hear that word before? Something is pinging in the back of Sasha's mind where the cobwebs hang out and it's bothering her as it makes its way upfront. Alteans. Who mentioned that kind of species before?
It's only when Sasha takes note of the pinkish markings until Allura's eyes that the pinging turns into a lightbulb exploding to life.]
YOU'RE THE SPACE PEOPLE MR. SHIRO TOLD ME ABOUT!
no subject
That... is one way of putting it, yes. We're from a planet, just like you. It's just... a different planet.
[ That makes you a space person, Allura. Just accept it. ]
no subject
[Sasha announces that little fact because honestly, before she got here, she didn't even know space existed, much less what a planet was. There was the moon, of course, but that was just an object without much of a category to her.]
How did you get here? Like down here?
[On Earth, she means. Sounds like a pretty big jump.]
