oo1 ★ FORM VOLTRON | voice --> action;

[undeserted]

[ A raspy but strong voice comes over the intercom, speaking loudly and authoritatively. ]

Paladins! This is Keith. Sound off! Pidge, Hunk, Allura, Lance?

We should meet, and soon.

[ A moment's hesitation, then: ]

Atlas crew, come in. This is Voltron. Requesting a status report. This is our sixty-second attempt. Repeat, come in Atlas crew.

action; Keith's apartment

[undeserted]

[ He's been a lousy leader, Keith thinks.

Not only has he failed to find everyone or make contact with Earth, he also hasn't made much of an impact here on a planet they're meant to be stabilizing or even made a substantial attempt to. They can't form Voltron without their Lions or Hunk, after all, and Keith is extremely single-minded-- and his thoughts have been consumed with finding a way out of this place, to the exclusion of almost everything else. And then the Iris cycle happened, and...yeah. He hasn't wanted to show his face to anyone since then.

But then it ended, and it's dawning on him now that they might need to settle in as if this is their new home. He has yet to completely accept it, still trying to contact the Atlas at least twice a day via any communication device he can find, but reality is sinking in-- So he reaches out, intent on checking in on his team and establishing a new plan of action.

If they truly can't leave, they have to find their place here.

Keith waits at his apartment for his team to come by, having thrown together some snacks and drinks-- literally just chips and pop, nothing fancy-- his demeanor resigned but determined. ]

[ man, Ren has no idea how he should introduce himself here. He'd met Keith once, in Duplicity, but there was no telling if Keith remembered that.

so now he's got to start over with introducing himself to Pidge's friends. ]

Kat-- Pidge has been talking about trying to get you guys together, so I think she'll be happy to meet up. I'll make sure she knows.

Um... I'm Ren. Pidge's boyfriend.

[lasersounds]

Well, there's the fearless leader. [Someone call for sarcastic confidence? Because you've got it in spades now.]

You got a plan for this meetup?

You're not going to be able to reach the Atlas crew, Keith.

[Infuriating but true, unfortunately.]

I agree that we should meet, though. What time's good for you?

[bitchilived]

[It's been a couple days and this is the first he's seen or heard from any of his team. It's the best sound he's heard in a while.]

Don't know anything about an Atlas crew, but Shiro reporting.
