Feeling My Way Through the Darkness (Intro Catch-All)
Who: Princess Allura and YOU!
Where: Route 29, Cherrygrove City, and Four Island
When: Around October 10
Summary: In which the Pokémon world gets a new Space Elf Lion Princess (again) and settles in... while getting a crash course in backpacking.
Rating: PG-13 for cussing and really nasty Voltron elements... and apparently Pidge and Lance being TOO MARRIED. (Season 6-8 spoilers for Voltron: Legendary Defender in some threads)
A. Guided By a Beating Heart (Network, Video)
[Well... waking up in the strange house alone had been unnerving, to say the least, especially with the woman blithely claiming to be Allura's mother... Too many fresh wounds involving her own parents, or too-cheery simulacra of parents... But at least this almost-mother wasn't trying to make her stay, or drive a spaceship into a supernova. In fact, it was almost a relief to be shoved out the door.
At the very least she should check this network, see how much of this is a dream or illusion, how much a hostage situation. She means to start composing a text message (at least she can make out the keyboard, thank goodness for the PokéGear's translator function), when a tiny white nose presses a different button, and the first thing people might see is an intense close-up of a white Vulpix face before humanoid hands start to pull the body away from the camera.]
Ah ah ah, little one, that isn't--
[The gentle but firm correction freezes when oh. ... The little blinking is on... complete with a camera preview...]
... Ahem! [This is fine, she can salvage this, she's not nervous you're nervous!] Greetings. I am Allura, Paladin of the Blue Lion. [She thinks half a tick later that maybe she should have kept that under wraps in case this whole situation had something to do with the Galra, but... it seems peaceful here. Besides, after the string of Coalition shows, it'd be hard to keep her identity a secret.] I seem to have arrived on this planet rather unexpectedly. The... gracious woman in the house I found myself in... was able to provide some instructions and supplies, but any further assistance- especially in terms of the sociology and technology levels of this planet- would be much appreciated.
B. I Can't Tell Where the Journey Will End (Action, Cherrygrove City)
[Of course, sleeping outside on cold, hard ground for three nights straight with only a nylon bag and Coressa's fluff for comfort was draining on her. Even with everything she's lost, at least in the Castle of Lions she still has the luxury of sleeping in her own bed, with perfectly comfortable bedding and a mountain of pillows... and she's missed having the mice to sleep on the pillow next to her, even with Coressa's company. So you might find a tall young woman with bags under her eyes and a very, very messy mop of moon white curls looking at the entrance spa with envy.]
No, no, no... I have no idea how long it will be before I find a way home, I need to manage my resources wisely. ... Even if it has been ten thousand years since I've had a proper massage...
[And that crick in her neck could definitely use one... Still, she's suffered worse, she can endure this much.]
C. But I Know Where to Start (Attack on Voltron House)
[The ride from Cherrygrove to Four Island had been interesting... especially once Allura stopped panicking that there was no way this three-foot-seven cloud bird could possibly hold the weight of two fully-grown Altean women together. It took a full ten minutes before she reached that point, and even once they reached solid ground, Allura had to pry herself away from Romelle and her Altaria. (Maybe it was a good thing her super strength was taken away...)
But now she’s on solid sand and... actually, this beach is rather pretty. The shore nestled in on all sides with cliffs while the sea and sky stretched on and on in sapphire and turquoise. ... The lack of any of Altea’s stealth predators or rarely-surfacing sea monsters helped with the view, although she’s sure this place has its own odd fauna.
And the house... it’s still so odd to think of her friends being in this world long enough to have a residence, not just shelter. But it looks safe and peaceful, even quaint, and at least large enough to hold her without being too crowded. It helps that she and Coressa have been traveling light.]
So... this is our house?
[Come welcome your old-new housemate, guys.]

D. So Wake Me Up When It's All Over (Wildcard)
[[Got something in mind not listed in the prompts? Hit me up on my OOC Intro or on Plurk at
no subject
The latter. And I am not dead. Nor is my advisor Coran.
[She lets the silence hang there...]
no subject
[To Riz's (minimal) credit, his voice does soften, his brows furrowing. But it is still a pretty blunt thing to ask. He doesn't mean ill, he's just... not good at social things.]
no subject
[A second's pause... and then a shake of her head.]
No. He sacrificed himself to hold Zarkon off. When we woke up... Altea and all the planets orbiting her sun had been wiped clean from the map.
[There's more to the story, but as far as Allura knows now... that's the ending.]
no subject
[Because what else do you say to that? To someone telling you that not only their father died but hey, so did their entire world? He remembers his dad dying and all the empty little platitudes people had offered him after and how none of that had made the situation even a fraction better.]
no subject
[A rueful puff of a laugh as the little white Vulpix comes up and nuzzles her face. She's not much for swearing herself but... well said.]
Indeed. [A heavy, settling exhale.] My apologies... you did ask.
no subject
[It's just awkward. Because really, what do you say to something like this? Riz barely has the social graces to keep a regular conversation going, let alone one which is tinged with emotion and grief.]
You don't... We can drop this subject if you want. Maybe you can just tell me more about Altean abilities?
no subject
[A light nod in agreement and thanks.]
We can do that. Let's see... I've mentioned size shifting, energy manipulation... we're also rather strong for our size.
no subject
What should I be picturing when you say rather strong? [he touches his chin in thought for a moment.] Can you compare it to a human? The humans here seem to be about as strong as the ones where I am from. Or do you not have humans where you are from?
no subject
[A soft chuckle.]
Yes, my world has humans. And hm... I was shapeshifted taller at the time and well armored, but I was able to body check a Galra of similar height and the same armor into a metal wall and leave an indent.
[And by "indent," she means "the guy's metal helmet got embedded in the metal wall." Shame she can't use yeeting her future ex as an example...]
no subject
Okay, yeah, that's pretty impressive.
no subject
Thank you--
[Oh... she shakes her head at herself.]
My apologies... all this talk and I forgot to ask for your name. I am Allura.
no subject
[Said with a nod. And the implication that Riz regularly hands out business cards.
Because he does. He hands out so many business cards.]
I'm Riz Gukgak. It's a pleasure to make your acquaintance, Allura.
no subject
Pleased to meet you, Riz. So... may I still ask about goblins?
no subject
no subject
You said your world has humans, but I can't recall the ones I know from my world speaking of goblins. Are you another of Earth's species, or from a different planet?
no subject
no subject
Really... interesting. Is there an Earth in your world?
no subject
