"They are. They're my friends. They used to be ordinary Altean mice, but they had spent ten thousand years with me in a pod, and, well, you see. Things happened. Mental connection with me."
Allura stands up and offers Ziggy a hand.
"I thought that's what happened. Hiroki's chosen you. Atlas activated all of a sudden. Yes, it's on now, for the first time since landing in Nexus."
"A year ago, I'd've been a little envious. Once upon a time, I was full of herself, sure that the Red Lion would let me pilot her. Because my Father was the original Red Paladin, I thought Red would let me pilot, too. But Red rejected me, and I - it hurt me, thinking she rejected me. But it wasn't like that. I know now, she knew this wouldn't be for the best. Not for me, nor for others. In others words, I'm not a Red Paladin, as you surely know. I understand why, now. And I'm glad."
"Sorry, that's irrelevant. Let's show you everything and see if you're a quick learner."
The Princess is ready to go now, just checking if Ziggy is, too. He's been through an ordeal, after all, it seems.
