Pidge was wandering the castle with Hunk and Lance, talking about everything from ice cream, to new training techniques. They were passing the training room, when a thought struck her.

"Guys, you know, we know almost nothing about Keith and Shiro, and I want to know more." Lance and Hunk paused, both Paladins had a look of consideration cross their faces.

"Ya know Pidge, you're right! They know a lot about us, but we don't know much about them! But we must be sneaky..." Lance said, his hand stroking his chin.

"Guys, that's a great idea and all, but, I mean, how are we going to find out things about them without asking, this is Keith and Shiro we're talking about here.." Pidge grinned at Hunk, a mischievous glint in her eyes.

"I hacked into the Garrison mainframe forever ago, and saved all the data on the cadets and officers to my holo phone, we should be able to find out somethings about them from there." She took off towards her room, the other two following.

"Okay, it says here that before he enrolled at the Academy, Keith had absolutely no records. And I mean none, no medical files, no school grades, not even a birth certificate, the only reason he got in was a recommendation letter from, wait a tick, it says here that Keith's recommendation letter came from, Takashi Shirogane."

"No way man! Keith got a recommendation letter from Shiro! That is so cool!" Hunk exclaimed looking like he just got told that the Galra empire just gave up.

"But how did Shiro know Keith in the first place, and knew him enough to give him a recommendation letter?" Lance questioned, peering at the screen over Pidge's shoulder with narrowed eyes.

All three Voltron Paladins failed to notice someone entering Pidge's room, so when oe Takashi Shirogane cleared his throat, they all jumped and spun around, panicked looks on their faces.

"You know, if you wanted to know more about Keith and I you could've asked, but if you really want to know why I gave that letter to Keith I'll tell you, but only if Keith gives you permission to know, I won't betray his trust." Shiro was giving them all the infamous disappointed dad look.

"Sorry Shiro, but we didn't think that you would tell us, given that neither you or Keith are trusting individuals. But if you want us to, we'll go ask Keith." Pidge stood up as she spoke, motioning for the other two to follow her. Shiro sighed as they left, hearing Lance freak out about how they were about to get killed because this was keith. Not one of the teens heard him mutter to himself.

"Keith, please trust them enough to talk to them, you're teammates now, it's okay." And with that the Black Paladin of Voltron left the room, closing the door behind him.
