[There's smart, and then there's Pidge. It's not just because he's supportive of all of his friends, Hunk is honest to goodness impressed with this little genius before him. He stares at her in awe, almost sparkling.]
Oh wow, Pidge, you're awesome!
[But is he ready? Well. He looks down, then nods. Even if it fails, it won't be the first time he's electrocuted himself in here.] Just tell me when.

It's not that. [Though she'd like to emphasize her point with an exasperated wave of her hands, she keep her focus on piloting the lion to safety.
Her concentration doesn't mask the unhappy tone,, though.]
You're flying around in broad daylight in really noticeable clothes. You're telling me people haven't noticed?

Oh. Well. Of course they have. They're used to us. Superheroes.
[ She just assumes Pidge is one too because why wouldn't she be, flying around in this? ]
I mean, people have to see your lion too, right? It doesn't exactly scream stealthy.

[Something about this doesn't sit right with her. Superheroes? Since when?]
How long has this been going on? The superhero thing. [And then, slightly sulkily--] And it can totally be stealthy if I wanted it to be. That's what I installed the cloaking device for.

[ Despite herself, she smiles a little, pondering it. All right. ]
Have you heard of Superman?
Have you heard of Superman?
No? [Pidge's face scrunches up in her confusion.]
Should I have?
Should I have?
[ She almost grimaces. ]
That portal might have taken you a little further than you thought. Let's say that.
[ Pointing to the S on her uniform, ]
I'm Supergirl.

[Well, that answers one question, at least.] I'm gonna make an educated guess and say you're related to Superman.
What did you mean about the portal? It sounds like you've got a theory already.

Well, on this Earth, we might not have seen anything like your lion, but Superman's been around for a while now. You think you might be from another Earth?
[Pidge frowns. More than one Earth? It sounds kinda farfetched, but she'd also had no idea aliens existed before becoming part of Team Voltron, so...]
We'll know in a tick. What was the destination of the Garrison's last big mission in space?

Quiznak. [She huffs out in frustration.] Looks like you were right.
[The Kerberos mission had been all over the news. There's no way it could've she could've missed it.]
So, what does this mean?
[The Kerberos mission had been all over the news. There's no way it could've she could've missed it.]
So, what does this mean?
We'll figure it out and send you back, don't worry.
[ J'onn will know what to do. She gestures down, to two small buildings in the middle of what looks like nowhere. ]
Here we are. Can you land?
[ J'onn will know what to do. She gestures down, to two small buildings in the middle of what looks like nowhere. ]
Here we are. Can you land?
You sound confident. [Her voice lowers as Pidge fiddles with the controls again, this time angling the lion downward.]
Have you done this before? And who's "we"? Is it you and the Superman guy you asked about earlier?
[With safety in sight, the exhaustion begins to catch up with her, making her ramble.]

The people I work with are very good at what they do.
[ Firm, without hesitation. ]
I work with him sometimes. This is the DEO, they handle... you know. Stuff like this.
[ Agents are already running over to them, Alex leading the charge. ]
Do you know of anyone who'd want to do this to you?

[Pidge lands the lion as best as she can, sighing with relief once she touches down safely.]
Yeah, it was definitely someone in the Galra army. Probably that creepy Druid lady with the magic.
We were rescuing Allura from their base, and I think they messed with the wormhole. [She takes off her helmet, rolling her shoulders to ease some of the aching there.] You haven't seen any other lions like mine show up here, have you? If I got sent way off track, that means my friends did, too.

Wow sounds like my kind of person.
You're right. You SHOULD introduce the two of us. You won't regret it. At all.

Thanks for the support???
When you land next I'm introducing you to the whole team, are you kidding? GoGo aside you'd like the rest of them too. That's okay isn't it?

The only thing that isn't okay is you asking that question at all.
OF COURSE I want to meet them, duh! And you're showing me the suits and gear while we're at it, too.

[There's something about Hunk's awe that warms her, making her grin.] Now that, I already knew. [He gets a quick, playful nudge of the shoulder.] You're not so bad yourself, Hunk.
[And now, back to work. As she turns her attention back to her laptop, her expression turns serious. Her hands stay poised over the keyboard.]
Okayyyy...and go!

[He has to chuckle at that nudge, beaming. Pidge is just great. But he's more than fired up and ready to work when she gives the signal, and touches the two tips together... and his eyes widen a little at the initial spark. He mouths his little mantra--please don't shock me again, please don't shock me again--and hope it works.]
Dude I don't know! Sometimes I don't want to meet new people either so I'm never sure. Any other demands?
No, sorry. We'll keep an eye out, maybe they're right behind you but time... stuff... happened.
[ She gestures. Multiple universes, though she doesn't really want to dump that on Pidge, who's already worried enough as it is. ]
You can talk to a couple of agents here, see if we picked up any anomalies, or someone who looked like the lady you're thinking about. If she had something to do with it, we'll find out.
