Smile when your Heart is Breaking and even though your aching.
Under a shady tree not far from some spot between one of the Cafe's and a announcement, or pin/cork board a black German Sheppard is nudging a pretty descent size cardboard/shipping like box into place. There's a quilt mostly covering the top, The smell of cheese crumpets and some other baked goods waft up from inside. There's a medium size dry erase board and marker hanging from a tack outside. With the question, 'What do you do when your feeling down?, In the Dumps or Melancholy? ' She checks to make sure it's secure before hoping inside. An ear twitching or eye mite be visible now and again. But mostly she'd curled up feeling emotionally and physically drained, her head pillowed on a lovely blue scarf. She lovingly rubs her check against the soft cashmere.
Which was on of the last gift's she'd gotten from a dear friend and heart brother and a well loved home made plush mouse, in a deerstalker and tweed outfit. She gently gums at an ear perhaps out of habit or thought between Half heartedly trying to nibble on a snack, and laying a bit listless. Half hoping..she mind see a friendly face or two while the other half doubted anyone would be bothered or care to notice. A part of her trying to hold onto hope another part felt like she was running on fumes. A person could only take so much heartache let alone doing one's best and failing for the most part over and over again.

Cheese?
"I'm not sure what cheese is, but if you are offering, I'll gladly try it."

"Oh ah it's made from milk..from Cows..ahem it doesn't hurt them none either only if they get too full and someone doesn't help take care of them. " It was different though if they were still nursing their calves. She adds reassuring..Not..sure if the lass was a meat eater or not..But she always preferred good stewardship and humane treatment especially of the farm animals and those in the forest. She smiles and nods, as she balances it on the edge of the box carefully napkins and a few paper plates ready for use on top.

It was a.... different and unexpected experience.
Humans and cows are strange.
"Yes, plants. Plants can be very healthy."
no subject
She missed her horses and barnyard critters and her Cooy cows though, to be honest. And especially her stallion Polarius.
She smiles warmly and nods making a note of that. "Mild or spicy?" She asks though she didn't often make things too spicey as she didn't like that herself she knew some folks did.
no subject
Spicy, she leart to tolerate, too. Actually, her diet has been enriched since she met Hunk. The Yellow Paladin was the best cook the princess's ever met.
But mild was fine to begin with.

Allura opens the container.
"Yes, this looks like the food Hunk makes, at least some of it!" The Blue Paladin exclaims with a grin.
"Chulatt, Platt, Plachu, Chuchule, look here!"
Yes. She is talking to her Altean mice.
Re: 1/2
She grins a little bit and wiggles a little her ears especially at the interesting names..but she also melts a little and perked up hopefully. She had a very big soft spot for wee beings..especially fuzzy ones. She giggles softly much pleased and tickled pink. Though her eyes are still softened by old memories.

"If you ever need help reaching high places, or anything, tell me."

"Oh thank ya kindly." she nods softly. "And if..ya not sure of ingredients and the like..don't hesitate to ask." She murmurs warmly and sincerely. "There's all sorts of things..ooh..have ya been to the Grand Library yet?" She asks after a moment of thought.
no subject
"And there's still so much in the Grand Library that I plan on showing to Lotor and Shiro! I wish Coran, Pidge and Hunk came to Nexus, too, they'd love Grand library."
Hmmm...
"Speaking of my companions, Lotor is busy in the library right now, but if you want, I can call Shiro on the commlink - or rather, PINpoint, it's called? - and introduce you right away."
no subject
She nods in understanding, "I know that sentiment well." She murmurs warmly.
She blinks her eyebrows go up as her eyes soften. "Oh..I mean..if it's not too much trouble..that would be nice." She murmurs softly with a little tail wag.
No problem, because I rp here a few Voltron charas myself XD
This is nice. She really hasn't been talking to people in Nexus enough.
"Not a trouble at all."
So, she calls Shiro, who at first, for some reason, is hesitant to leave Lotor alone in Grand Academy, but at Allura's description of what Ash is, easily guessed even if Allura doesn't exactly know the word for dogs, readily agrees to come.
"Shiro will be here in a few doboshes,"
Allura tells Ash after she's finished communication with Shiro on the PINpoint.
"Oh. Shiro said you might not know Altean, and to tell you that's in a few 'minutes'."
Re: No problem, because I rp here a few Voltron charas myself XD
She then waits patiently. She then tilts her head and blinks a few times at that word. Slightly owlish. "Aye..ahem..oh I see." She nods and makes a mental note of the translation. "Mmh that's an interesting name for a language..ya'll aren't related to Atlantians by any chance that you know of?" She asks warmly and curious.The Entomology sounded..a little similar. She did enjoy learning about cultures and various realms after all. And not just for say, 'work. ' related reasons.
no subject
"I've never heard of Atlantians. What's their home planet?"
no subject
"Oh? ..ahem well most realms where I've heard tales of such they either have a hidden island or live under the waves of Earth." She informs the Princes warmly and little ear wiggle. "Their Atlantis was once the capital of a mighty empire above land..That most think merely Myth in some lands.."
no subject
Could they be? No, her father would've known.
In a moment, a young man comes to this newfound meeting spot.
"Hello. I'm Shiro. Takashi Shirogane. And you must be... the sentient dog."
He hesitates at first, but then, looking Ash over, thoroughly, he smiles softly.
"Amazing! No offence. Great to meet you."
no subject
She tilts her head and gives a soft warm smile and a little wag of her tail. "Oh ello." She murmurs and blinks a little. "I'm Ashlynn Aalish Sinclair, but most folks call me Ash." She introduces herself and sticks her paw out warmly to shake.
She blinks a few times at the gaze. Most folks didn't give her more than a passing glance half the time in this form. She shifts from one hindfoot to the other for a moment. She chuckles warmly then, "None taken, laddie and you." She murmurs with a small smile. Before glancing tween the two.

Well, no, it's not a dog, since it talks, and not 'it', but 'she', but - still.
Shiro smiles at her in response. He reminds himself not to do anything that one would immedietaly do with a, well, nonsentient dog, in case it'd be very offensive. No stick throwing, for example.
"Ashlynn."
Just to remember.
"Hello, Ash."
