"Quit it mullet! This piece of meat is mine!" Lance said as he tried to push Keith off his chair. The raven-haired boy copied the same move, catching Lance's wrist while the Cuban did the same. Their foreheads were practically glued together trying to pick the last piece of alien meat that Hunk had come up with a good recipe for.
"In...your dreams, Lance! It's mine." Keith growled back, looking deeply at the other male. The two were practically not stopping their fight over food any day. Pushing the chair back and taking her spork in her hand, Nakia took a spoonful of food goo, and catapulted it at the boys' faces, shutting them up instantly.
"Quiet! We are trying to eat here!" She warned, sitting back and crossing her arms over her chest. The others tried their best to hold back their laughter while the boys looked at each other in disgust with all the food goo on their armor. They groaned and sat back in their chairs.
Allura entered the dining room in her princess gown and sat near Nakia with a smile. Seeing the red and blue paladin's new style, she put her hand to her lips as she stifled a giggle. She then took some food goo and put it in her plate. Leila looked over at Lance and Nakia.
"Ya know Nakia, your aim is as good as Lance's. I'm sure you two could be a good team in a food war." Nakia and Lance crossed eyes and looked away with a faint blush on their cheeks.
Coran tapped his lips with his handkerchief. He coughed, catching the attention of the girls for a second. "Ladies, as soon as you are finished with your meal, come find me in the record room." They all nodded. Continuing their conversation of the last part of their training with Coran on the bridge yesterday, they agreed on one point: Do not leave Coran alone with an Olkari cube ever again. His voice trick games went right through their brain cells.
"It's still ringing inside my head..." Clara admitted putting her hand on her forehead.
"I cannot wait to ask Pidge to connect it elsewhere." Leila groaned, slumping in her chair.
"I just want to destroy it." Nakia said, earning three glares from her female friends. "Don't you know how hard it is to sleep with the ringing voice of Coran in my head all night long and it doesn't stop....."
"I find it relaxing." Roe smiled, drinking her Altean coffee, which she grimaced at after her first sip. She looked up, and the three glares she received made her cower a little with a nervous giggle.
"You guys should learn more about what it is rather than complaining. Olkari cubes are awesome, even if I agree with you that that can be a tad annoying." Pidge said, closing her computer and storing it away in her paladin's thigh protection. She played with her glasses. "As a girl myself, I do accept Leila's proposal to rewrite their system and have fun with them.
Leila silently cheered. Finally, some quiet time thanks to the genius of hacking technology. Putting their dishes away in the dispenser towards the kitchen, the four females stretched as they went to the record room to Coran's earlier request. Something they didn't know they would be working at from later on.

Punching the Altean gladiator away, Shiro blocked the fist from flying close to his helmet. Lance shot the legs of the two other bots about to gang up on Shiro's back from afar. Keith slid on the side to slash its waist in two. Three more gladiators dropped from the ceiling, only to be stopped by Hunk's massive gunfire. One remained standing, trying to get through the five paladins. Catching the leader off guard, it took the Black paladin down on his stomach to the guys' surprise. The gladiator was about to attack, but shut down once Pidge used her hacking skill on it instead. Shiro caught it quickly and passed his Galra hand through its chest in one blow.
