Meet my new wife, Luca.

I'm sorry for the silly quwstion but who's Luka? 😅
No worries, it's not silly at all 😊
Luca/Luka is the Altean pilot that attacked Voltron at the end of season 7.
She didn't get much screentime, but I found her to be interesting so I'm trying to make content for her.
Luca: Bad News - Romelle locked her keys inside her house.
Luca: Good News - We didn’t have to wait around for a locksmith.
Luca: Bad News - Allura finds it very concerning that I know how to pick locks, and tried to unlock my "Tragic Backstory". I was too embarrassed to admit that the reason I learned was because, at thirteen, I figured that was the kind of skill that would impress hot people.
Luca: Good News - A hot person saw me do it.
Luca: Bad News - It was Keith and since he’s already seen me fall out of several trees, cry because I saw a fawn that was just too damn small, and knows I can ride a unicycle, he’ll never think I’m cool no matter what I do. It’s too late. He knows.
Luca HC / AU Part 7
For some reason, Allura seemed to think that it was okay to try and bond with Luca now that she had given them some help. She visited Luca a lot more and tried to converse with her about different topics that strayed away from the battlefield outside. Well, Luca didn't really feel like being all buddy-buddy with the Princess. She had only given them the information to help the people in need. Sorry to disappoint.
Allura did seem rather disappointed about it. She really tried to make Luca interested in speaking more than a few words with her. That was their currect situation, sitting on Luca's bed together.
Allura then noticed the sketch of Luca that Keith had given to her and asked about it. A gentle smile on her face.
Allura: ”Did Keith make that?”
Luca glared.
Allura: ”He is an artist, really, our moody leader.”
She laughed, wearing a a tender look on her face.
Allura: ”Still..”
She reached for the sketch.
Allura: ”This is the most detailed work I've seen so far-”
Luca imidiately snatched the sketch and held it close to her chest, heart beating wildly. She didn't know what had made her react that way, but she really didn't want the other girl to touch the paper. Allura stared at her in surprise and let her hand fall back to her side.
Allura: I-I'm sorry, I didn't mean to be rude. I just thought it was very well made. I should have asked before trying to look closer, of course.
She looked sheepish and Luca relaxed again, looking down at the sketch she was holding. It really was well made. Luca loved it. She didn't want anyone to take it from her. That didn't seem to have been the Princess's intention, though and now Luca felt a bit foolish for acting so rashly, but at the same time she didn't like the thought of anyone just touching the one thing that belonged to her in this place.
Allura looked more unsure now with the tense silence, eyes downcast in thoughts.
Luca sighed. Perhaps, she could speak with her a little bit. She had already told them about the other Alteans anyway, so what was the hurt in this kind of topic?
Luca: ”He is kind. The Black Paladin.”
Allura looked up, eyes shining in happiness and relief at Luca speaking.
Luca: “...He seemed so rough in the beginning. Then he started engaging in food battles and silly games- with a prisoner no less! I thought it was some shady trick or the guy must be crazy.”
Luca: …
Luca: ”But he wasn't. He was genuinely treating me like he would anyone. He went out of his way to make sure I was comfortable here. Sure, he yelled at me once, but... he looked so apolegic about it afterward.”
Luca looked at Allura.
Luca: ”Is he always like that?”
Allura smiled at her. Luca couldn't deny that the Princess had a beautiful smile.
Allura: ”He is.”
She looked proud.
Allura: ”Keith is a really passionate guy. He is often awkward in social situations and he can come across as temperamental at times, but if people just take the time to get to know him they'd see what a wonderful comrade he is. He's the kind of person who would risk his life for a stranger without hesitation. And he gives everyone a chance to prove themselves, no matter thir backgrounds. I am really glad to call him a friend of mine.”
Luca looked down at the sketch once again. The potrait of who Keith saw when he looked at her. That girl was so pretty. Could this really be how she looked through his eyes?
Luca swallowed. Was this her second chance? To try again and see things from a different perspective?
Luca glanced over at Allura. Who did she see when she looked at her? A pitiful orphan? An enemy? A sister who refused to accept her..? Luca suddenly wanted to know. She couldn't stop the feeling washing over her.
Luca: ”I really did believe that you were evil, Princess Allura.”
Allura's smile fell. Luca took a breath.
Luca: ”I believed that you were my enemy for taking away our savior. I believed Empress Honerva when she told us that we were doing the right thing. Now, I... I don't know what the truth is anymore..”
Luca put the sketch down on the table.
Luca: ”I've trained for so long for the day I would meet you in battle. To take revenge. Now that I've met you, I-I can't picture you slaughtering..- I can't imagine you or Keith acting to destroy-..”
Luca rubbed at her head in frustration.
Luca: ”I don't want to fight you... anymore. Honerva, she.. she tried to kill me. It was so painful. I believed in her preaching, but now..I don't know if anything she said was true at all.”
A warm hand covered her own and Luca looked up, startled at the touch. Allura watched her with gentle, sorrowful eyes and suddenly, Luca felt like breaking down again in her sadness. In those eyes, she could she the reflection of a little girl, just yearning to see her parents again. The depths were filled with so much loss and Luca realized that she couldn't tell if the little girl were herself or the Princess in front of her.
The Princess who slept for 10 000 years.
Luca couldn't bear to think of everything that Allura had to wake up to. It was overwhelming. Her eyes were already tearing up at the intesitivity of her emotions.
Luca: ”You were gone....for so long, Allura...”
Allura's marks shined in a pink glow, glistening behind the waterfall of tears pouring down, at last.
Luca: ”I am...so..sorry..!”
And Allura embraced her. And she cried. They both were.
Perhaps it was the tension that had built up inside of them during this war that finally decided to snap. Perhaps it was the feeling of belonging with someone after so long that overwhelmed them both. No matter the reason, the two girls held each other while letting out their griefs and longing.
…...
The next time Allura visited, Luca didn't glare. She could actually feel herself smiling at the Princess when she walked in through the door.
Allura brought with her a Juniberri. Apparently they'd been able to grow them onboard the Atlas and Allura could barely contain her happiness. She hadn't seen them in so long. Luca couldn't imagine it. She'd had several flowers like that one growing on the hills in the colony, but Allura had had them ripped away from her in an instant when she lost Altea. To miss a flower that much.
To miss a home that much.
Luca weighted her options and made a decision.
Luca: ”Can you tell me?” Allura looked over at her, surprised. Allura: ”About what?” Luca: ”About Altea. What it was like?” The way Allura smiled at her told Luca that she had made the right decision.
Please tell me I’m not the only one who wanted to know more about her..
It really seemed like she could have been an interesting character. I feel sad she died so soon.
I will try to create some content for her (and the other Alteans). Headcanons and au’s where she lives and interacts with the Paladins. Is anyone else interested in that?

Keith: You okay?
Luca: It stings!
