[ The video clicks on to show Pidge wandering through Heropa. She's meandering through the crowds and down random streets, and would look like any other teen if not for the green lioness at her side. ]

So... this is all strange. One moment I'm being threatened by a giant warship, the next I'm in a weird underground bunker and have a glowy tattoo on my arm and sudden super powers? Which is cool, don't get me wrong, but I sorta already have a universe to save. The Galra threat isn't just going to go away because I was kidnapped.

[Pidge pauses while she maneuvers around a crowd. ]

Wait, is that why I'm here? Am I supposed to save this world... universe... whatever? The soldier guard dude who gave me all my stuff didn't really explain much. Just kinda dropped me off in an apartment and left.[ Rude. ]

I'm Pidge by the way. [ She directs a grin towards her communicator. ] And I'd really appreciate more information.

[ 'Sending'? Not a term she's familiar with, but she's just gonna assume you mean Green. Almost every one has been commenting on her after all. ]

This is Green! She's one of the Lions of Voltron, a peacekeeper that was built centuries ago in my universe. She's supposed to be taller, but I guess when we got dragged here they shrunk her down.

[postcog]

[ She understands approximately half those words. They're enough though, if only barely. ]

Built? So it is a mechanical construct. Most curious.

[pidgewidgeon]

She's way cool!

I take it your world doesn't have anything like her?

[postcog]

Cool? I don't understand.

[ Lirael lifts her mechanical hand. ]

We make do.

[pidgewidgeon]

[ Pidge is just going to stare for a moment. Sure, Shiro has a mechanical arm, but this one is here. And maybe she can play with it! ]

Is that a mechanical prosthetic? That's so amazing! Do you have full range of motion with it? Can you feel sensations with it? How sensitive is it?

[ Your hand is just getting all the heart eyes. Pidge may be in love. ]

It's so beautiful. The design is so much nicer than Shiro's arm.

[postcog]

[ Lirael's hand is a literal work of art. It looks exactly like a hand, but golden and clearly made out of many, many mechanical parts.

As a manner of an answer, she wiggles her fingers, quick and nimble. ]

Yes and yes. It was a gift from a good friend of mine. A fine mixture of mechanical engineering, he said, and Charter magic. It really works just like a hand.

I don't know anyone else with anything resembling my hand. I would love to meet this...Shiro.

[pidgewidgeon]

Magic. It's always magic. [ There may be a faint hint of disgust in her voice. But only because she can't hack magic. ]

Shiro's hand is like that: Galra tech with a bit of quintessence to make it interesting.

As for meeting him, I don't know if he's here. He hasn't gotten ahold of me yet if he is. And Shiro's big on staying in contact so... yeah. Sorry? [ Now she feels kinda bad.

But oh! ]

If you need help with upkeep, I did the maintenance on Shiro's arm; I'd be happy to help with your arm. Assuming it needs upkeep. And you don't think it creepy I'd just offer... I should stop talking now.

[postcog]

It certainly makes things easier on some aspects.

[ It's not the strongest reaction she's gotten to magic, so Lirael doesn't mind the disgust. ]

Oh, I see. Well, if he does show up...

In all honesty I've just had it a few months. Most of what I've done with it is try different Charter marks, but if you are knowledgeable on this you're free to inspect it. I don't suppose it would hurt.
