[ that's probably because he isn't currently dying or even close to it. the castle's pod healed his wound just fine, and he's managed to avoid any new ones, for the most part. ]
I did, yeah. A few weeks after her, I think. Any luck making sense of this place yet?
Of course! You're speaking to an experienced traveler, after all. I know a thing or two about being quick on my feet!
[ Debatable. Nonetheless, he is going to persevere whether he likes it or not. ]
And I am glad to hear you've been here with the Princess. It would've been terrible to hear that none of us arrived until just now. With these 'anomalies,' anything like that was possible.
[ that's all any of them can do, isn't it? persevere. ]
I wasn't there the whole time. I think in the beginning, she was alone. [ shiro is sorry for that, even though there was nothing he could have done differently. ] Do you think the anomalies are essentially wormholes?
[ Alone in the beginning and alone the entire time are different enough beasts. Can't hold a grudge for the whims of... whatever mishap started plucking them out of the known universe. ]
I suppose it could be possible-- an unstable wormhole could scatter us to any possible point in the universe, after all. There could be unstable technology pulling things in from any possible point. It's hard to say for certain without knowing more of the technical details. We have an alarming lack of blueprints in these welcome packets.
[ Well, that's the undeniable truth. People pulled in against their will from all across the stars, not given any concrete information, put to work and asked to be cooperative.
Coran doesn't have the full history of this vessel at his disposal, but he's dug around and had a talk here and there so far. ]
There's only so much we can do to try to prevent that. Still, doesn't mean we won't be trying! [ If he knows a got dang thing about Allura and these new Paladins, it's basically that. ]
That's true. [ both of it, but especially the part about trying. shiro will be damned if he lets anything happen to anyone that he could have prevented. ]
I know I'd feel better if Hunk were here, too. Or if we were all back there fighting the Galra, instead of here.
[ but he's glad coran is here. he's glad keith and lance are here, too, and pidge, even if that's maybe a selfish thing because — he's not sure he would wish it on anyone to be picked up by the anomalies. this place isn't terrible, but it's not great, either. especially not given what happened on oros. ]
I have to agree with you. This is part of the universe that Voltron is meant to protect. You know, probably. Need to crunch a few numbers. But the Galra were meant to be a bit of a top priority.
I just hope the Galra don't make any advances while we're here.
[ it's a foolish hope, isn't it? and he isn't really hoping they won't so much as worried that they will, angry and resigned all at once at his own inability to do anything, the helplessness of being here instead of where the paladins are really needed. ]
[ Coran's brief pause before replying says that isn't quite optimistic about that himself. ]
It never hurts to hope! Otherwise we just stirred up trouble with the lions and then completely disappeared right before they started trying to expand more quickly.

[ yes, shiro is going to be forever grumpy about that. if by grumpy, one means worried, really. ] The crew isn't forthcoming with any intel at all.

Probably be easier for all of us to settle if we had the whole team here, of course.

It's something. [ it's not enough, though. ]
