[video] [action]
Who: Lance and you
Broadcast: Fleetwide
Action: Blameless
When: Shortly post planet go boom
[Video]
[The vast majority of people here know Lance as constantly loud, boisterous, all smiles even in the face of bad news. Constantly flitting from person to person, acting as a sort of giant team cheerleader. But this Lance? He looks small and tired. If you squint, you can see a little tremble passing through his body. He can't even muster up one of his trademark smiles right now.]
So that's it, huh? That's...it. That's all we could do.
[Action - Blameless]
[Lance knows he can't just lay here in his room and mope. People need him, he could still help. It's his role to comfort people and to keep their spirits up. He should be doing that, and helping with first aid anyone who got injured. He should, but he can't move from his bed right now. All the fear of this situation is finally settling in--no, it's more like a truck hitting him at full speed.
He's spent all this time helping everyone he can, distracting them, in a way distracting himself, and it's only now after it's all over that he realizes how terrified he's been all along. And especially now, with the dead remains of a planet floating right outside his window... And Looma...
You're useless without your lion and Voltron. Part of him knows that it isn't true; he'd helped some others through the month and he evacuated as many people as he can, but his fear is leaving him hyperfocused on those he couldn't save.]

Sorry. I didn't mean it like that.
no subject
Yeah. [Falling silent, Fie knows she should try to give him more than that.]
If you want to focus on something, go back to the ships. Organize people and help set things up there. It's not over just yet.
no subject
[Complicated. He's used to being the big damn hero by now, saving planets, and yes, he knows that's cocky of him. But without Voltron, he's just another pilot.]
Anyway, I'm going to go do that.
no subject
It's never that complicated. Do what you can with what you have at the time.
no subject
[He gives a tired smile.]
I will.
no subject
[Just from her own experience at least.]
