    "I was, for a while, actually. I was the first mate on the Goldstone." she crosses her arms, still sizing him up and feeling a pit in her stomach. His voice sounded similar but not the same. Was that even possible? Perhaps she was just missing Glenn.

    "What ship are you on?" Better to start with easy questions, get to know the kid a bit. He didn't seem to be bad at all.
    tempredmental: (Mou...)

    Is THAT what it is? Geeze... why didn't Rick just SAY something? LOL

    Keith nodded at that. The Goldstone, huh...

    "I'm on the Huntress," he said. "I'm the pilot. Been here a few months now, I guess." He looked thoughtful, and then sighed. "A few of us from home are here." All of Voltron...

    "A pilot, huh. I was one of the Lab Officers when I was here before. Now I'm not so sure where I'll fit in. Probably been gone too long." Though really, would Takeshi ever turn her away? Highly doubtful. The boy had a heart of gold that was large enough to fit the entirety of the world in it. She was absolutely proud of him and also a bit sad because of how much he reminded her of Glenn. It seemed everywhere she turned reminded her of her husband in one way or another.

    "That's good. It's good to have familiar faces here. Makes it less lonely if you end up here a while. I saw a few come and go from home. I think someone must still be here - dunno if you'd know him or not." Carl kept to himself, just as she did. For her at least, it was hard to get close to people when you expected them to disappear. Yet Takeshi she'd wanted to look out for and she had only barely felt herself opening up to her crew. Who knew how many of them had gone afters she left?

    Keith nodded. "It's what I do back home, too," he said.

    "I'm sure you'll find something. Maybe you'll end up in the same spot again." He shrugged.

    "I might. I've met a few people... or, even if I don't, one of my friends might." Actually, Keith was surprised at just how many people he actually knew in the Fleet. He was usually so introverted, but he'd been doing pretty well at actually making connections... and even... friends.

    "You're a pilot? Well then I guess you fit right in, up in space like that." It was certainly impressive for someone so young. She couldn't imagine the amount of education that got crammed in your head as a pilot. It definitely beat out her college education.

    "Well - if you see a kid around wearing a sherriff's hat and an eyepatch, that's Carl. We're from the same place. He's about your age too." Keith could do whatever he liked with that information too. Maybe even make a new friend.
    tempredmental: (Okay Smile)

    "Hm... Haven't met him, but I've heard of him. I think I met his dad." He hadn't interacted a lot with Rick before he disappeared from the Fleet again, but they'd worked in the gym together a few times. Rick had tried to get Keith to learn how to change his style as needed for a fight so his moves didn't become to predictable.

    "Actually, more than you might think," he then said in reference to the pilot thing. "I was training to be a space shuttle pilot back home. We were getting ready to start regular missions all the way out to Pluto and its moon. After that, probably beyond the edge of the solar system."
