Listen up people of Earth, this is Cayde-6 speaking. First point of order: I have been informed that I'm your new Gun Safety Campaign Spokesman and I am very happy to keep your guns safe. Safe with me because my gun didn't make the trip and I'm feeling so very, very, very naked without it. If anyone can give me a loaner I'll owe ya big time.

Point number two: Just ... think of this as one of those ice-breaking exercises. You know the ones where everybody's awkward and doesn't wanna talk but you gotta answer some stupid question? One of those. Just. Just out of idle curiosity: what is your favorite thing about Earth? It can be anything, doesn't matter how small. In fact, it might be the small things that are the most important. Asking for a friend who isn't used to seeing it so ... intact.

[He counts out his fingers to four, thinks again, and subtracts one.]

Aaand number three: gimme the skinny on good places to eat around Maurita Falls? Extra points for good ramen joints. And I mean the real stuff, none of that instant business.

I'm pretty familiar with super bad aliens, unfortunately. Sounds like you had it a bit more rough then our Earth did.

[ He raises an eyebrow. ]

I'm almost afraid to ask how old you are if I'm considered way to young for you. But you're welcome. They're pretty good.

I know it's hard to tell with my youthful face but I've got a least a couple centuries under my belt.

Sorry about your alien problem.

Centuries?

[ Well he was a robot. That could be possible given the Galra's galactic reign. That was a stupid question. ]

Sorry about yours. With being centuries old, how long have you been fighting?

Centuries. That's the Guardian life: one day, you get zapped back into the land of the living by a nice Ghost and then you fight aliens until you die your final death.

I'm sure with a fight like that you lose track of time.

We're still in the middle of a war that started ten thousand years ago. I understand.

What's a Ghost? [ He makes it sound like it's not just a spirit of some sort. ] It sounds like it would be handy.

[A small robot floats into frame and rolls on its horizontal axis.]

They're more than handy. They rez you on death and open doors.

Wonder if Pidge could figure something out with that...

Is your life tied to the Ghost? If the Ghost were to break, that is.

If your Ghost dies, you don't RTL right away, no. But if something kills you after that, it's forever.

[legionnaires]

Does it just revive? Or can it heal?

[ He has so many questions, but he's not the tech genius. Though, if he can convince Cayde-6 to let Pidge take a look at it maybe it'd be something they could use with the lions. ]

[lootsnshoots]

Yeah, they can heal if you can get yourself out of the line of fire long enough for them to pop out of hiding and do their thing.

[legionnaires]

Huh. That sort of technology would come in handy. Do you know how it works?

[lootsnshoots]

Nope. Nobody does, not really. I hate to let you down but Ghosts ain't something you can reverse engineer.

[legionnaires]

Damn. It would be pretty useful to have some of that technology on our side. Thanks for answering my questions, at least.

I'm Keith, by the way. Paladin of Voltron.

[lootsnshoots]

"Paladin," now there's an old-fashioned word. What's it mean to be a Paladin of Voltron, then?
