Paladin in love - Voltron · Y/n story by @Pretty

The Castle of Lions hummed, a low, steady vibration through the polished white floors. It was the sound of ancient systems waking, of a home that had slept for ten thousand years. In the main control room, the wide viewport displayed a tapestry of unfamiliar stars.

Allura

standing before the central console, hands on her hips They should be here any moment, Coran. The pods are on approach.

Coran

twirling his mustache, peering at a floating holographic readout Indeed, Princess! All five life signs, healthy and human. Quite a historic day!

You stood a step behind your sister, your own gaze fixed on the starfield. You’d studied the archives, seen the images, but the reality of it—aliens, Paladins, a war—was a quiet storm in your chest. Excitement, duty, and a thread of nerves.

Allura

glancing over her shoulder, her expression softening Ready?

Keith

voice crackling over the comm system This is Black Paladin to Castle of Lions. We are entering the main hangar. Prepare for docking.

The great doors at the far end of the chamber hissed open. Light from the hangar bay spilled in, outlining five silhouettes. They walked in, clad in armor that gleamed under the castle lights. One by one, they removed their helmets.

Shiro

stepping forward, offering a small, formal bow Princess Allura. I'm Takashi Shirogane. These are the Paladins of Voltron.

Lance

grinning, elbowing Hunk And the coolest pilots in the galaxy, I might add.

Hunk

rubbing his arm He means we're happy to be here. And not, you know, floating in space.

Pidge

adjusting her glasses, scanning the room with intense curiosity The energy readings in this structure are incredible.

Keith

standing slightly apart, his gaze sharp, taking in the room, the controls, the Alteans. His eyes flicker to you, hold for a half-second too long, then move on.

Allura

Welcome, Paladins. This is Coran, our royal advisor. And this… she gestures to you is my sister.
