As they walked, they got closer to the village. As they got closer to the village, they realized it looked almost abandoned, and this set Hunk off a little.
"Are...are you sure this is the right planet, Allura? I'm getting goosebumps..."
"I'm 93% sure, Hunk."
"93?? That's not 100! I need 100% certainty! I-"
"Woah, Hunk, calm down. Let's just investigate. They're probably hiding, it's not every day you see five giant robot lions drop out of the sky and spit out people who come looking for you. Walk in their shoes, I'm sure they're just kinda spooked."
"Woah, Lance, not even I would have guessed that. It is kinda weird, looking at it that way, I can't lie." Pidge almost sounded sarcastic, he couldn't tell.
Lance just hummed and kept walking. Eventually, they got to the small village.
"Hello? Is anyone here? We're here to see if you're friendly. We just want to talk," Allura said loudly, startling everyone but Lance.
"Hey, quiznaksters, get your butts out of hiding! We're gonna be friends whether you like it or not!" Pidge yelled with her hands cupped around her mouth. Lance put his hand on her shoulder.
"Shhh, Pidge. They're not gonna get any more confident if you scream friendship threats at them."
"Well, do you have a better plan?" She snapped back.
"Sure I do. I'll show you. Sit, quietly, right here, and wait for them to come to us."
"Or, we can bust the doors down-" An 'oof' was heard from Keith. "That is not an option! We came here to make friends, not destroy property!"
One thing led to another, and the group was arguing over what to do. Except Lance, who had tiptoed over to one of the little houses and knocked on the door. He then sat down and waited for an answer, and after a few seconds the door opened to show a little eye.
It looked at him for a while, and Lance waved. "Hi, are you friendly? Got anything wrong here?"
"Why.. are you here? Why are your fellows fighting?" A soft voice whispered. The arguing died down in the background and all eyes were on Lance.
"They wanted to meet you and your friends, but couldn't decide on a way to introduce themselves. Uh, do you think you could come see us outside? It'd be an honor to meet you-"
"You are very big. Can you carry me? Your fellows are loud, and the adults are out getting food."
"Of course, would the.. adults get angry if you were outside?"
The door opened enough for Lance to see the small alien's head, and it shook its head 'no'.
"Not if I was safe. You're safe, right? I think you're safe."
"Sure, I'm safe. You wanted me to carry you?" Lance held out his arms. The alien's little eyes lit up and it ran towards him and jumped into his arms. "Yay! Carry! I'm being carried!"
Lance stood up and brought the tiny thing back to the team, who were currently gawking at him.
"So, what's your name, you tiny cute...thing?"
–––––––––––––––––––––––––––––– I just realized I manage to update every 4 days somehow what the heck. I'm not sure if tiny alien is a girl or a boy yet but I'm gravitating towards girl
Also yes I have no idea what the name is going to be
Also also yes i love me some "professional at making friends with kids because he had smol siblings" Lance
((Coughs ))...I've probably mentioned it before but I'm totally winging this also while I'm writing this I'm wanting to draw covers for chapters so maybe I'll do that I'm not sure yet.
UPDATE!! I MADE CONCEPT ART FOR TINY ALIEN AND IVE DECIDED THAT SHE IS A GIRL. I STILL HAVE NO IDEA WHAT TO NAMR HER THO
(The mask is for future stuff, idk what but I thought it looked cool, also this is just concept art idk if she's actually gonna look like this)
