So which half of Liminal was going to help with Shiro's replacement arm, again? Apparently it's time to get the ball rolling on that.

That's between you and your boyfriend, dude.

That was all Coran, and unless we really, really need to infiltrate a vintage goth scene club some jaunt, don't worry. It is not making a return tour.

Do I want to ask how it ended up being a thing in the first place?

[Heavy siiiiigh.]

We were doing a tour around un-allied planets and systems to raise support for the rebellion and the coalition. And to do that we wound up doing some reinactments of various battles, and Coran went a little crazy with the idea of making it a show. My... character, I guess, was pretty popular? At one point near the end he definitely handed me a shirt more mesh than fabric. We were on an ice rink! It was freezing!

That... sure sounds like a special kind of crazy.

It was. Turned out there was some kind of space worm parasite that was messing with his brain chemistry, which explained a lot, but honestly it wasn't that far off from his usual exuberance. He's a great guy, and an excellent mentor. Just... excitable.

...wow.

I don't think I have any more than that. Just... wow. If he's usually like that he'd probably get along pretty well with Pete.

I think he really wanted to be useful to the war effort in a unique way. Allura could pilot the Castle of Lions, if he was out of commission, but no one else had tried to get a propaganda campaign set up before. He's not a fighter, or a stealth expert, or a tech expert, but he was essential to us learning how to be paladins and in keeping our morale up. He went a bit overboard sometimes, but I don't think he really understood how important he was to us. It's one of the things I want to try and fix when we go home.

Somewhere between Pete and Leena, then - I don't know if she's ever done away-team Artifact snags or not. Would've been before I got there if she did. She does admin stuff, Artifact shelving, making sure we eat something other than Artie's cookies.

That sounds more accurate to what Coran's duties were. Though if he arrives, I can recommend passing on the food. I'm sure it's very authentic Altean cuisine, but uh. It doesn't really match well with Terran tastes.

...Fun for the whole family, I take it.

I didn't actually taste it. I had something else on my mind. I'm sure it tasted better than it smelled.

[Very convincing, Shiro.]
