Speaking of others, sometimes I wonder whether to tell other Paladins about the Nexus, because I miss everyone, but... maybe after the war. Everyone's surely too busy now.
Then again, time doesn't pass normally in Nexus, and everybody in the Voltron Coalition needs vacation sometimes, honestly!
Allura can tell them someday. Or Shiro, or Romelle.
Hiroki grins. Yeah, he really misses his friends, who are like a family to him, too. He knows that Ziggy's not content with how they treated Hiroki, but right now, he doesn't care.
Maybe also because Hiroki's not sure he'd've done anything any differently, if he was in any of their shoes.
And this is the first time he's allowed himself to think that all of them, even Keith whom the clone had tried to kill (had tried not to kill, it was Haggar who had tried any killings), wouldn't mind seeing him, too. And really, much of that was thanks to Allura, who, he knows by now, still considers Hiroki a friend. Maybe not as close, but still. (Or, she might be as confused about how close friends they are, as he is with anybody whom he's met who first knew Shiro. It's a bit of a mess. But they're dealing with it. Slowly.)
Right. Jack. True, any nebulous connection he might or might not have to Ziggy shouldn't be a priority right now. Being an alien without knowing was pretty surprising on its own.
You're right. Maybe tell him a little about Antheans before you tell him he's one? So that he doesn't think it's something bad. Either way, it's going to be a lot to deal with, but yes, he deserves to know.
It's strange, but I'm really not attracted to Jack. Maybe because he just seemed so young and lost. Not that I should talk, I'm way younger, in every possible way. I wish I was the age I'm feeling like I am. Because sometimes, just talking to people I barely know, I'm feeling like a fraud. Like I'm lying that I'm as old as I look. Because of course I'm not gonna be telling strangers.
And then he realises that Ziggy's heard that thought, too. Now that's slightly embarassing.
