Romelle frowned. “I still don’t understand.”

Lance groaned, while Allura looked amused. “I too do not understand,” she said. “Why must it be blind? Why can you not simply tell her who you are trying to get her to go on a date with?”

Nodding, Romelle folded her arms. “What is so wrong with this girl that you have to hide her identity just to get her a date?”

Lance’s mouth dropped open, and he made a strange sound. “What? That’s not...nothing! There’s nothing wrong with her! That’s not why...argh!”

Allura laughed and winked at Romelle. “Are you sure? Why else are you so reluctant to give her name to Romelle. It’s the least she deserves since you are asking her to go have a meal with a complete stranger. Probably a human. Is she a human?”

“Yes, I would like to know that too,” Romelle agreed. “You can’t tell me even that? I think I get the concept of going in blind, but I do not understand why.”

“So that you don’t go in with expectations and bias!” Lance said, starting to sound a bit defeated. “Also, it’s a bit...”

Allura grinned. “A bit what? Why so set on this, Lance? What benefit do you get out of it?”

“Fine!” Lance hissed. “Fine! It’s my sister!”

Romelle blinked. “Veronica? Or one of the others?”

Lance groaned. “Yes, Veronica. She’s been whining about how lonely she is lately and I just wanted to...I said I’d...but it’s embarrassing!”

“How so?” Romelle asked, uncrossing her arms and looking more relaxed. “You wish for your sister to find someone to love. That is admirable.”

Allura laughed suddenly. “It was her idea, wasn’t it! Ooh, I knew there was something about the way she was looking at Romelle!”

“What?” Romelle looked between them. Lance was looking sheepish, and Allura triumphant. She was right then. “Wait, wait. Have I got this right? Veronica asked you to ask me to go on a ‘blind date’ with her? Why? Why didn’t she just ask me herself?”

Lance threw his arms in the air. “Because she didn’t want you to know she was interested if your answer was no. My charming nature isn’t a family trait, you know. She’s terrible at these things.”

Allura laughed again but Romelle frowned. “But then...how does a blind date solve that? She would then be stuck having a meal with me if I was not interested? Is that not worse?”

“Look, I’ll just tell her you weren’t interested in a blind date, and we’ll pretend this never happened, alright?” Lance asked, rubbing his forehead. “And if she ever does ask you, just let her down easy, okay? She may be one of the toughest people in the Garrison, but she’s hopeless about these things.”

“No, tell her to come ask me herself,” Romelle huffed, folding her arms again. “I am certainly not interested in a blind date. But Veronica? Sure. If she comes and asks me herself!”

Lance gaped at her. “What? Really? You don’t even know her well! You’ve only met her...two times?”

Romelle laughed and flicked her hair over her shoulder. “That’s what a date is for. Or is that different here on Earth?”

“No..that’s, yeah...”

“Good,” she said, nodding to herself. “Go tell her then. I’ll be waiting.”

Romelle/Veronica Hummingbird

Part of my Voltron “Bed Time Stories” Oneshot Collection 

Read on Ao3

Veronica is intrigued by the pretty blonde alien that landed with the other paladins at the Garrison

Veronica is a giant gay mess and no one can convince me otherwise

“Whoa,” Veronica said, once their mother had been pried off Lance. “Real aliens.”

Lance followed her gaze to where Allura, Coran, and Romelle were speaking with Sam Holt. “Oh, yeah. You get used to it pretty fast.”

Veronica tipped her head to the side. “She’s so pretty…” Veronica bit her lip.

“Who, Allura?” Lance said, “‘Course she is, she’s a space princess.”

“Not the Princess,” Veronica said, “Well...okay, yeah, she’s gorgeous too. I meant the blonde one.”

“Romelle?!” Lance asked, “I mean, yeah she’s nice, but damn she can be annoying sometimes.”

“What, like you?” Veronica asked.

Lance grumped, “Your beloved brother finally returns from an intergalactic war, and you can’t even wait a DAY to start roasting him?”

“Nope,” Veronica said, smirking and popping her ‘p.’ “I’m going to talk to her.”

“Have fun.” Lance said, “Don’t do anything I wouldn’t do.”

“You mean like be actually smooth and charming?” Veronica asked.

“One day!” Lance said, “That’s all I ask! One day to enjoy my home planet before begging to get shot into space again.”

Veronica chuckled, leaving Lance back to the mercies of their loving family. “Hi,” she said to the blonde alien, as Allura and Coran were led away to examine alien tech, “I’m Veronica, Lance’s sister.”

“Oh, hello!” she said in a cheery voice, “I’m Romelle.”

“Nice to meet you,” Veronica held out her hand. Romelle looked at it confused, “Oh, this is a handshake, it’s like a greeting here on Earth.” Romelle nodded in understanding, grabbing the hand and shaking it until Veronica was worried her arm would fall off. “Um,” She said, once she was decently certain her arm was still in it’s socket, “Would you like a look around?”

Romelle was eager to see all the interesting Earth Contraptions and how they were all so different than anything she was used to. It was like trying to follow a hummingbird. Who’d just drunk a pot of coffee. Mixed with espresso. And red bull.

“And this,” Veronica said, opening a door with the general hope it might pull Romelle away from the panel she was poking at, inputting all types of commands their computer couldn’t handle, “Is where you’ll be staying while you’re here,”

Romelle bounced over to the open door and looked it. “My….my room?” she asked. She was still moving, a little nervous flutter under her skin, but her feet finally stood in place as she examined the area.

It was pretty barren, with only a standard issue bed and sheets, an empty dresser, a mirror, and a set of an old cadet uniform in the closet. “It’s an old cadet’s quarters,” Veronica said, “Bathroom’s down the hall.” Romelle just stared into it blankly. “Is it ok?”

“Oh, yes!” Romelle said, overly cheerful. “Yes, it should be fine, I just, haven’t had my own room in a while. I’ve been spending so much time with the Paladins and before that Keith and Krolia. They’re a bit quiet, but they’re nice. And when I was little I slept in the same room as my brother, before…” Her face fell. Veronica could only imagine what might have happened, and as someone with three brothers, one of whom she had thought she lost, she didn’t want to.

“Well,” Veronica said, “Most of the cadets have been moved to the barracks, in one of the warehouses. It’s not comfy, and definitely not private, but the rooms are prioritized to families, and honored guests like yourself, of course.” Romelle nodded, but Veronica could see she wasn’t really listening, “We could set you up with a bunk down there, if you’d like?”

Romelle looked up, “Really?” Veronica nodded, “Oh, thank you!” and instantly pulled Veronica in for a hug.

Error, Error, Veronica’s brain read to her, Cute Girl Hugging You, Do Something You Useless Lesbian.

Veronica gingerly hugged back, until Romelle released her, back in her flighty mood once again.

Veronica set her up with a bunk next to her own, because she was in charge of these things and could do that. Romelle curled up, like the little makeshift cot was a luxury mattress. Finally, she settled in to sleep, looking truly restful for the first time since Veronica met her.
