[CLOSED] wibbly wobbly timey wimey bs
Who: Allura and Krolia
Broadcast: No
Action: SS Iskaulit
When: Beginning of the month
[ Allura had given Krolia some time before reaching out again, knowing that finding oneself in a pocket reality where you are essentially a commodity for some unseen masses could need a little time to get used to. Certainly it had taken Allura a while, in no small part due to the fact that her friends had disappeared only a few quintants after her arrival, and then learning of her future shortly after.
It had been a trying time, to say the least. Surprises on the Fleet have often not been kind. Hence she wants to handle this as appropriately and delicately as possible with a potential ally.
She picks the Mural as a quiet, unobtrusive meeting spot. If they desire something more private she reckons that they can move to one of the private rooms in the library. But Allura can appreciate art even if she cant recreate it.
So she waits quietly, staring up at the large painting, trying to pick out pieces that she recognizes. ]

Krolia spots her easily, enjoying the location that she had chosen for their meeting. Art can be a calming presence. ]
Princess Allura, it's nice to see you. [ Should she have said meet you? No, this was what their meeting was about. ]
no subject
You as well and to finally meet you in person. I hope you've been adjusting well?
no subject
[ She's attempting to joke. Attempting is the key word there.
And of course, to the point as always. ]
I believe we have much to discuss.
no subject
[ Friendly, yes, but how much freedom do they have? The fact that every movement is monitored and potentially broadcast had rarely escaped her mind in the beginning, but Allura found herself becoming much too lax. ]
Yes, we do indeed. Would you like to take a seat or walk as we talk?
no subject
[ Walking might draw more suspicion or allow them to be followed. At least sitting they could notice any number of people attempting to listen into their conversation. ]
Why don't we start with what you wish to know?
no subject
[ Allura has no problem with that. Though she would like to watch the mural, she also knows the importance of keeping an eye on anyone that might happen by, so she decides to sit parallel to it, offering Krolia a seat across from her. ]
We've been working with the Blade for some time now, though I have not been as deeply involved and privy to the operations as Keith and Shiro. Unfortunately, we are all subject to potential timeline discrepancies as well, so I want to cover any gaps that may be present. I did want to know in more detail what it was that you have been working with Keith on.
no subject
Of course. [ She pauses, taking a deep breath. ] My station was under that of Warlord Ranveig. He was conducting experiments with an unknown source of quintessence that we've been trying to track down for deca-phoebs. He was attempting to utilize it to create a monster that would hunt down those he considered his enemies.
However he was unable to control the monster enough to have it differentiate between friend and foe. [ They lost many lives because of this. ]
His death, however, meant his base was fair game. Keith's mission was to retrieve me from the base, but the information I had on the enriched quintessence lead us to the Quantum Abyss to follow it's path.
[ Krolia stops there, because this is all very basic information compared to what they found. ]
What has Keith told you?
no subject
She nods, following. Though the mention of the Quantum Abyss does immediately get her attention, ears perking slightly. ]
The Quantum Abyss?
[ Wait a moment... ]
He--...had mentioned that's where he had found a...colony. He had been there with--
[ His...mother? ]
no subject
[ That was good. That's better then she could have hoped. If she knew about that, then perhaps there wasn't much she needed to share. Her reaction, however, was a curious one. ]
He told you he was with his mother. [ She smiles a little. ] I'll never tire of hearing him call me that.
[ There are days she wonders if she deserves to be called his mother -- but knowing he shows no hesitation does alleviate some of her guilt. ]
no subject
...
[ She blinks.
Then touches her forehead. ]
I am such a fool. I should have known...--I apologize.
no subject
[ Really, it must have been a shock for everyone if -- well, things had gone differently. ]
He takes more after his father. I'm not surprised it wasn't as obvious.
no subject
[ Goodness... ]
That certainly makes me asking if you're familiar with Keith a little embarrassing.
no subject
[ She knows that Keith could take care of himself, but the threat or possibility of threat would always linger. They needed to isolate what information that they spread anyway. ]
You still have questions. I would be more then happy to oblige.
