My friends, one of the many things I've very much enjoyed while on the Fleet is the ability to experience enjoyable things I never would have had had the opportunity to hear about back on Thedas. A 'water park' seems to be one of those. I am interested in seeing what the fuss is about... Especially if I can convince Kolivan to experience it with me. [Oh, he will. That is going to happen.] Meeting him as been other one of those things, after all, and combining them could be fun.

My concern is this. [He lifts his left hand, showing off the silver cybernetic prosthetic.] When it was installed I was reassured it's waterproof and I've had no issues with it in the shower and such, but somehow this seems different.

Does anyone have experience with these sorts of limbs? Can you check that it will still function properly even if I take it down a 'water slide'? [He seems to enjoy saying 'water slide' even though he can't fully conceptualize what it is.]

[Waterpark (for Kolivan)]

[Just as he had suggested on the network, he is able to convince Kolivan to come with him to check out the water park. Now they are both in bathing suits and t-shirts (very out of place for both of them, honestly) and side by side as Cyril considers the slides.

He has been reassured that his arm is waterproof, but now that he's here, he realizes that he hadn't considered his khol.]

Oh... I just realized this is going to make my eyes run.

[He was excited about the new experience and hadn't fully thought ahead. Don't judge him.]

[Exactly, and Cyril plans on cherishing them all.]

So, this may seem a little of an unusual question...

But is there such thing as Galra cuisine?

Cuisine? Probably. My mom or Ulaz might be the better ones to ask, though. I didn't grow up with other Galra.

A lot of the spacefaring races we know, though, usually have some sort of food goo type of thing because it works well in outerspace. I wouldn't consider that cuisine, though. Like... not at all. [Keith shook his head.] It's actually kind of gross.

Is it like the nutrient paste we get with the Fleet?

Yeah, it's pretty similar, actually. Just... less flavor options... like, each race has their own version, and they have one version each, or something. Though, Hunk figured out that you can freeze it into ice pops once. I didn't see him do it, but he told me about it.

[Keith had kind of missed the whole "fun sentry" thing when Team Voltron had visited Lotor after he stepped up as Emperor. He'd been off chasing quintessence with his mom on a Blade mission.]

Hunk is one of the paladins is that right?

Yeah. He's the Paladin of the Yellow Lion.

He was here for a while... back before you were here, I think? Maybe. But, he's a good guy.

[Hunk would always have a friend in Keith. The big guy had been one of the first of the three Garrison cadets on Team Voltron to show him acceptance and be friendly to him, and Keith admired the fact that Hunk was always willing to face his fears the way he did. Not to mention the fact that he was also wicked smart, right up there with Pidge, and an amazing judge of character when it came to others... Keith knew he could count on Hunk for a lot.]

Then I'm sorry I missed the chance to meet him. At least he's back home?

[Keith nodded.]

Yeah. It's probably better off for him that way. Probably a lot less anxiety.

[He chuckled as he said that, though... like it was a little joke between him and Hunk or his team.]

Isn't there a war going on back in your home?

Yeah. But there's also a level of familiarity and the promise of eventually seeing his family again that he didn't have here.
