thelinebetweenIt was like floating in space. Allura would know, having been stranded among the stars for a spell.
She placed an affectionate hand on the leg of the Blue Lion, hesitant to leave it unattended while Lance introduced her to the mer-people of this aquatic planet. She knew it would be safe - Hunk and Lance's gallantry ensured a peaceful encounter after all - but the Lions were vital to the success of their mission, both this one and the grander scheme of protecting the universe.
She took a step away, hoisting herself off of the ocean floor and quickly finding buoyancy. Pulling her gaze away from the lion, she twisted her torso in hopes of the rest of her body following suit. Her suit helmet granted her a limited field of view, so she quickly scanned what she could in order to locate its pilot.
"Lance?" She could hear her voice in the helmet's monitoring speakers. She brow furrowed. "Lance, you better not have gone far!"

She was very good at hiding it--as any good diplomat should be--but he knew her well enough by now to know how to read her voice. Lance might have been a bit obtuse a lot of the time, but he cared deeply for his friends and paid more attention to them than most other things (like school). She glanced at him, and he met her expression with one of sympathy. They were all worried about Shiro, but he knew that Allura's respect for the Black Paladin knew no end. Maybe Allura should have brought Pidge instead; Pidge probably could have tweaked the beacon for their purposes no problem and found Shiro within a matter of hours. He wondered for a moment if the team would have been this adamant about finding him, if he'd been the one to go missing--
Okay, stop. This wasn't time for jealousy, not at all. Get it together, Lance, he told himself, shaking his head. Maybe he wasn't the leader of Team Voltron. Maybe he wasn't even the second choice. But he was still a part of this team, and it didn't work if any of them were missing. Just because he didn't have super amazing technical skills like Pidge didn't mean he couldn't do anything.
"Is there anything we can do to help, Your Majesty?" Lance asked, trying to shake off that cloud of self-pity before it got too big. "I mean, we have the supplies and stuff for you, of course, but since we're here anyway, if we can do something to make things go faster, all you gotta do is ask."
