Dear Princess
Allura and Commander Keith....
I am 10 years old and wanted
to ask a question of you both. My mom said to ask you both at the
same time...that it would save time. Hope I did the right thing.
For Princess Allura...Can
you tell me more about how it feels to be Princess of Arus? What kind
of stuff do you have to do as a princess? Do you get to tell a lot
of people what to do? Is it fun? Do you get to go out and play like
everyone else? How many slaves do you have in the castle? Do you ever
wish you could be someone else, instead of a Princess? In fairy tales,
Princesses always get to marry a handsome Prince. Do you know any
that you would like to marry?
That kind of stuff.
And for Commander Keith...
Can you tell me more about how it feels to be Commander of the Voltron
Force? What kind of stuff do you have to do as Commander? Do you ever
have to yell at anyone....kind of like my dad does when my older sister
does something really stupid? Do you ever get to ground anyone? Is
it fun, if you do? Have you ever been in love? Do you wish you could
be just a regular man and not a commander all of the time?
Thank you both!
Alicia Novel
My goodness,
Keith! This is...quite a...a...list of... information that she's asking
for! Hmm.... Well, here I go! Wish me luck, Keith! (cracks knuckles)
Dear Alicia,
What a
bright little girl you are! That certainly is quite a list! And very
good questions too! Well, lets' see...where to start. Hmm...I'm afraid
this is going to be...rather long.
Well, your
first question to me was what is it like being a Princess and what
sort of things do I do as a Princess. Well, I can tell you...being
a Princess of a huge planet is no easy task. I have plenty to keep
me busy. First, I am responsible for my people...their safety, their
well-being...the planet's economics, farming, industry and environmental
needs. Not to mention, all of the people that want to see me...just
in a single day's time! Why, some times, I'm asked to decide who's
telling the truth and who's not. Sort of like your mother and father
do now, with you and your older sister.
I also
have to be able to communicate with hundreds of planets around the
galaxy. As a Princess, I've learned many hundreds of languages, interplanetary
customs and have kept bonds between Arus and other planetary systems.
Not to mention... that I am a member of the Voltron Force. I am the
pilot of the Blue Lion and thanks to Commander Keith, I've already
learned how to pilot Black Lion, defend myself in physical combat
and use weapons. But I would HIGHLY suggest NOT doing the same! Weapons
are VERY dangerous and can hurt you! So...leave them alone, okay?
Now....your
next question was... do you get to tell a lot of people what to do
and is it fun. Well, it all depends. As a Princess, I do need to give
out orders...and yes, sometimes, my position as Princess requires
me to even give orders to Commander Keith. But...when it comes to
matters of combat...he's the boss! Giving orders is rarely fun. Unfortunately,
I am often giving them when we are under attack. And that's no fun
at all.
Do I get
to go out and 'play' like everyone else? Well, if you were to ask
Nanny and Coran that question, their answer would be, "Absolutely
not! It is beneath the station of a Royal Princess to go out and have
fun!" Nonsense! I love to have fun! And if it weren't for Keith,
Lance, Pidge and Hunk, I wouldn't even know what 'fun' was! They make
me laugh and my heart to sing! So, when I get the chance, I sneak
off! But...only when all of my work is done! Remember that! Responsibility
first...play second.
How many
slaves do you have in the castle? Slaves??? OH!!!!!!!!!!! You must
mean servants! Oh, plenty! And I thank them all for all of their hard
work and loyalty to me and the Royal House of Arus. Why, some of them,
like Coran, served under my father's rule...King Alfor. Many of them
tell me stories about my father. That helps me to miss him less. Marie
is my personal maid and she is one of the dearest people I've ever
known! Remember...never take advantage of your friends, Alicia! You
may need them someday!
Do I ever
wish I could be someone else, instead of a Princess?
Sometimes...
You see, being a Princess is sometimes rather difficult. I have been
sheltered most of my life. I've missed out on some to the simple joys
of childhood...all because I was a Royal Princess. **giggles!**...I'll
just bet right now, you were wishing you were a Royal Princess! Well,
be careful what you wish for... because sometimes having it is not
as nice in the end as wishing and dreaming. I wish I was an ordinary
girl, who could do ordinary things...like playing, running through
the grass on a sunny day...or falling in love...
Which brings
me to the last question you had...fairy tales, with Princesses always
getting to marry a handsome Prince and do I know any handsome princes?
Well ...
of course. I've met many. But somehow, I always seem to find them
stuffy and so stuck on themselves and their royalty. I want a simple
man...a man who loves me, not just because I'm a Princess... but because
of who I am as a woman. My fairy tale prince, so to speak, is a romance
with a man who will take care of me...look after me... cherish his
time with me...protect me from harm. But is loving...kindhearted,
compassionate, concerned for others beyond himself, and most of all,
is sure of who he is. Looks aren't important. But they do count! But
I'll tell you something... when you find the right young man someday...you'll
know it. And he will too. And no...I'm not looking for a Prince to
fill my heart. Not at all. He will know it...and perhaps...he already
does.
As for
me...
Well... let's just say...I'm open to...possibilities.
Thank you
for your questions, Alicia!
Princess Allura.
Take it
away Keith...she's all yours!
Allura.
Well hello
Alicia,
I don’t
think I’ve ever received such a detailed letter form someone
so young before, You must do very well in school and you parents must
be really proud of you. Only ten? Gee, I would have thought you were
at least thirteen. Well, on with your great questions…
Can you
tell me more about how it feels to be Commander of the Voltron Force?
Well first off, it is an honor to be the Commander of the Voltron
Force and to serve Arus and I am proud to be it. But, with that honor
comes great responsibility. It’s a lot of work and I don’t
get much time off to play. In spite of that I still love my job.
What kind
of stuff do you have to do as Commander?
Besides the obvious, piloting the Black Loin and Voltron, I have to
keep the rest of the team in tiptop shape. I organize all the practice
sessions and workouts. I hold classes on tactics. I also have to train
the castle staff and the people of Arus in defense and combat. Let
see, then there is the mundane stuff like paperwork, keeping logs,
ordering supplies that kind of stuff.
Do you
ever have to yell at anyone....kind of like my dad does when my older
sister does something really stupid?
Yes I do have to yell sometimes. But only when someone has really
misbehaved and done something bad. I don’t like to have to yell.
Do you
ever get to ground anyone? Is it fun, if you do?
Well I suppose I have. I have confined Lance to his quarters on several
occasions. I guess that’s like grounding. But I only do it when
he deserves it. Just between you and me, yes it is fun. Don’t
tell, okay?
Have you
ever been in love?
Well of course I have. Who hasn’t? I fell in love with this
planet and its people from the moment I arrived. Even in war they
are kind caring and compassionate and soon welcomed us, five compete
strangers, and made us feel like we were one of them.
Do you
wish you could be just a regular man and not a commander all of the
time?
Heh. Every morning when I wake up at five o’clock to start training
and see a pile of paperwork waiting for me on my desk! Would I quit
just because of that? Never! I Love my job.
Thanks
for the wonderful questions Alicia
Keith

Dear Keith
Get with the act man and marry the Allura she loves you. You can tell
it in her eyes when she's looks at you. Let me tell you something
about love. Love has no borders our titles. So marry Allura. If you
don't take my advise if you don't. I may have to come to Arus and
kick your butt.
Benny Gee Jr.
Benny,
So, it’s
that simple is it? I just go up to Allura and ask her to marry me
and everything’s all better? Heh, If only it were that easy.
Unfortunately I live in the real world and that fantasy stuff just
doesn’t hold water here. Sorry. Were I live titles and boarders
abound.
Keith

Hello Commander Keith...
My question is two-fold...
1. What did you do when
you were ordered to return to Earth, after the defeat of Planet Doom
and Prince Lotor? Did you teach? Did you continue in your military
training?
2. Did you miss Arus at
all when you were gone? Are you glad to have been back, and which
do you prefer? Arus or Earth to live on?
Thank you.
Angilyn from The Arusian Press
Hello Angilyn,
Well, as
to what I was doing well I can’t really say, classified information,
No I didn’t teach but in a way I was continuing my training.
That’s as detailed as I can get without getting in trouble.
Sorry.
Yes I missed
Arus. I love this planet! It’s so pure, pristine, and untouched
well except for where Zarkon has left his mark. But even there the
planet is recovering. Both this planet and is people amaze me with
how caring and compassionate they are and how quickly they can recover
form adversity. Nothing like Earth. There everyone is so caught up
in the day to day no one seems to have the time for such trivialities.
So I guess Arus is the place for me, If you’ll have me that
is.
Keith

Commander
Keith...
Let me start by saying that if you think for one moment, that you
are worthy of Princess Allura's hand in marriage, you are positively
mistaken! I AM the only one for her!
And...since you obviously
have made it perfectly clear that you are NOT in the running for her
hand in marriage... I will ask you step aside...no... I DEMAND you
step aside! She's mine, Keith! She has been...and always will be!
And believe me.. you do not want to get in my way! You pathetic little
human being!
You will NEVER have her,
Keith! NEVER!!!
Signed...
Do I really need to say who I am? I think you and I BOTH know who
it is sending you, this little... note! BWWAHAHAHAHAAA!!!!!
LONG LIVE DOOM!!
Hello Blue
Boy,
Look who’s
calling who pathetic. Lotor grow up already. Get a life! Allura no
more yours than she is mine. She belongs to herself and her people.
Do you really want a woman who doesn’t love you? Have you ever
known what it feels like to be loved? If you did you would know that
a married life without love is nothing. Allura needs someone that
will truly love and care for her not someone who merely wants to possess
her. I will never step aside if it means Allura is defenseless against
a guy like you.
Never…
Keith

Keith...
can you take a look at this email I've received? Any comment on your
end?
Allura.
Hello, Allura....
I have been reading the
emails received by you and Keith. Keith wonders if many people think
that you should be together. I can tell you that I am one person who
absolutely DOES NOT think that you should be with Keith! He's a low-life
humanoid who will never loved you as I do, Allura!
My love for you is boundless...
As deep as an ocean...
As rich as the deepest colors in the evening sunset...
As delicate as the tenderest rose...
My Princess... let's look
at things from the practical, shall we? You are a Royal Princess.
You should be with your own kind. And I, my dear Princess Allura,
AM your own kind! In fact, I'm the best one for you! LIKE IT OR NOT!
No one will ever love you
as I do, Allura...and don't forget it!
Signed...
The handsome, suave, Prince of Doom and your future husband, don't
forget! (One day, Allura... you WILL be mine!)
Princess,
He e-mailed
me too. Isn't that line from a hallmark card. "My love for you
is boundless...As deep as the ocean.?" Ah come on Lotor you can
do better than that.
Princess,
he doesn't love you. He doesn't know what real love is or even how
to love.
"I
lie on the ground, and stare into space,
the stars start to move, into the shape of your face.
I see you
there now, looking down at me,
with that cute little smile, that I like to see.
You say
"close your eyes" "tell me what you see"
I see only two people, just you and me.
We're walking
the shoreline, with our feet getting wet,
the horizon turns pink, as the sun starts to set.
We make
love through the night, on that white sandy shore,
then I hold you while thinking, I could want nothing more.
Oh I wish
I could be in that one special place,
as I lie on the ground, and I stare into space..."
Allura,
if he really loved you he would send you a poem like that. Not that
trite hallmark stuff.
Here's
something from earth to ponder Lotor.
"If
I speak in the tongues of men and of angels, but have not love, I
am only a resounding gong or a clanging cymbal. If I have the gift
of prophecy and can fathom all mysteries and all knowledge, and if
I have a faith that can move mountains, but have not love, I am nothing.
If I give all I possess to the poor and surrender my body to the flames,
but have not love I gain nothing Love is patient, love is kind. It
does not envy, it does not boast, it is not proud. It is not rude,
it is not self-seeking, it is not easily angered, it keeps no record
of wrongs. Love does not delight in evil but rejoices with the truth.
It always protects, always trusts, always perseveres. Love never fails.
But where there are prophecies, they will cease; where there are tongues,
they will be stilled; where there is knowledge, it will pass away...And
now these things remain: faith, hope and love. But the greatest of
these is love."
--1 Corinthians 13:1-8, 13
Keith
Keith...
That was so...so ... oh my...I'm speechless. That poem was absolutely
beautiful! Where did you find that? Did you...make that up...just
for me? Or was that just your attempt at trying to prove a point of
what real love should sound like?
My... I
never thought you could write something so...so eloquent as that!
You surprised me, Keith! Thanks you for the wonderful reference to
Lotor too. Nice touch with the bible reference too! I bet if Lotor
would apply more of that to his life... things might go better with
him.
Well...uh...
I suppose I had better go and answer more mail now. Hunk just sent
me something about my reaction to him being picked for the love bridge,
after you had declined.
Sigh...
here we go again. Hunk...making references to you and me again...
silly people.. they just don't understand what you and I share...do
they?
Or..do
they? And...maybe its you and me that don't understand it?
Uh... opps! Look at the time! Oh...is that Coran calling me? Chitter...
what is it?? Oh... Nanny is looking to fit me with a new gown?
Well! Duty
calls, Keith! Talk to you later!! ^_^
Yes...
uh... hmm...later....
Allura
Princess,
Uh, yeah
it is a beautiful poem. Can't believe you thought I wrote it. I'm
no poet. It's from a book of poetry I have here laying by my bead.
I have a few pages bookmarked that I really like. If you want to borrow
it sometime you can but it's not in the greatest shape, the binding
is all falling apart on it and it has my scribbling all through it.
I could just send you my favorites.
Keith
Keith;
Oh...I...sort
of thought it wasn't you. What I mean is.. not that you're not capable
of that... its just... well... you know... you and I are only...just...friends.
And you certainly do not write such romantic and heart-pounding, body
tingling poetry...for someone you have no romantic interest in, whatsoever.
**sigh**
Uh....please
excuse me for...cutting this short. I..uh... I feel ill suddenly.
Princess.

Hey Keith...
Was that you I heard in
the shower, singing, "Everything I do, I do it for you."??
Was that for our lovely female pilot?? Hmm....????
You were in great voice,
by the way! I wonder if Allura knows that you sing to her? I could
be bought out, to keep this information on the QT. But... maybe, we
just could forget about the punishment and the big toe incident, shall
we...'Commander Serenade'?
Yours very truly, Your
friendly, neighborhood, 'spy',
Lance
Lance,
You wouldn’t
dare! Why is it I can never get any privacy in the shower. First Ginger
and the girls, then Allura and Nanny, now you! What is it with all
of you and your fascination with my showering habits? And I wasn’t
singing to her I was just… just… well it helps me relax!
Keith
And the song was Hero!
(Hehe he left the transmission
on. I can hear him faintly in the background)
I
can be your hero, baby.
I can kiss away the pain.
I will stand by you forever…
Lance you were right he
does have a great voice!

Hey Keith
Do you agree with me on this? That Lotor should get a life and stop
messing with Allura and get on with his life there are other women
out there for him.
Go easy on Pidge I read that e-mail that he sent you when he was in
the control room of the castle and punish him for it. Buy the way
kick Lotor butt for me I don't like the guy.
Benny Gee
Jr.
Hi
Benny,
Well can’t
ague with you there. I’d love it if Lotor would “Get A
Life” as you put it.
I can’t
understand how a man’s life can revolve around his desires to
be with one woman. I mean what, is his every moment is occupied by
thoughts of her? Does he wake up every morning longing to see her
or if he’s lucky talk to her? On that day would she bestow him
of the gift of her beautiful smile or dare he hope the touch of her
hand? Would he get the chance to stand so close to her that the scent
of her perfume would wash over him to linger with him the rest of
the day. Would she come to me and pull me into a… uhhh…ahem
I mean… would she… she… ughhhh…
Ummm, on
Pidge… Sorry Benny but work is work. He can’t be goofing
off like that while on watch and well with this group telling them
just isn’t enough.
Next time
I see Lotor, after I give em a kick for the Princess, I’ll give
em one for you too!
Keith

Dear Keith,
I really feel sorry for you! Don't people understand that you are
a grown man and that you are quite capable of making a decision regarding
your love life! It must really frustrate you to have to sit there
and listen to people telling you how you should do this and do that!
You know the score, you know how you feel about Princess Allura and
you have clearly decided to be her best friend. This is a NOBLE undertaking
and I think people should cut you some slack. I am sure that the Princess
really enjoys having such a devoted friend. I have seen these sorts
of friendships myself you have both been through a lot together! You
have fought beside each other, held each other in dire moments, saved
each other's lives a few times, laughed and cried together! You no
doubt have a special bond and I am certain that nobody could understand
that unless they themselves had experienced it!
That sort of bond usually only exists among those who have been in
combat together. You would gladly give your life to save theirs and
perhaps you even go as far as to keep a quiet eye on them but it doesn't
mean its love! I was lucky, my beloved wife was a Princess and me,
hah I was a smuggler turned mercenary working for her cause. I saved
her life a few times and she saved mine a few times and without any
pressure from anyone else we DID eventually fall in love! That's not
to say I think you will or even should but I use my marriage as an
example because of the similar circumstances.
My daughter is now nineteen years old and my son is eighteen. There
is pressure from the people of my world for her to marry a Prince
and would you believe it, she is in love with an X-wing fighter pilot!
I was a little disappointed at first I admit, I had high hopes she
WOULD marry into royalty but its funny how a person can grow on you!
He is wonderful with her, he cares for her very much. He considers
it his personal duty to make her laugh at least three times a day!
He really knows what she wants out of life and he is so devoted to
her. Just last week he took her fishing! Really a Royal Princess going
fishing and camping! Oh you should have seen the reaction she got
from her governess when she got home!
I of course was there to set HER straight! Just because she’s
Princess Cloe Solo doesn't mean she can't enjoy herself too and Jendarr
keeps her safe when she's with him. Governesses! I am glad I never
had one as a kid! Sure they mean well but they tend to go overboard!
Anyway Captain Keith Paladin I am sure you are a very busy man! I
can well remember when myself and Queen Leia had to rebuild our world
after it was ravaged by war! It takes a lot of effort. I hope people
will give you a break and realize that you have decided that your
relationship with the Princess is one of just good friendship!
I have met many princes through my wife's various meetings and plenty
have tried to offer Chloe their hand in marriage too! She HATES princes
and just between you and me, I don't much care for em either! If the
princes in your galaxy are anything like the ones in mine then no
wonder poor Princess Allura is so reluctant to marry!
Anyway, I just thought I would drop you a line!
King Han!
Your
Majesty,
Thank
you so much for your letter. I am glad to hear I have a kindred spirit
out there in the galaxies, one who has lived with the kind of relationship
the princess and I have and understands our situation.
So,
you were a bit of a rouge you say and yet became King? Sort of a reverse
Cinderella. Your story of how you too came together sounds fascinating.
You should write a book. Always liked those action romances myself.
I’m
happy to hear that you too were able to find a way to get past you
titles and raise a family together. That must be the most incredible
felling to be able to be with the woman you love in spite of everything
and have what sounds like such a loving and caring family. I’m
jealous.
So,
you get the same kind of princes out there that we do here! Are they
all so incredibly egocentric? Heck, they could care less about what
the princess needs. All they care about is what they can get. I tell
you, they’re all the same.
Well
I’ll let you get back to your kingly duties, thanks again for
the note
Keith

Keith,
Is Jeff your brother? Cousin?
Lover? All of the above? Is he related to you at all?
~~CNW~~
HAHAHAHAHAHA
Jeff, my lover! You have got to be kidding. Too funny.
No, Jeff
and I are not related at all. Do you really think I look like him?
Really? I don’t see it but others have often said the same thing.
Okay so we have the same color hair and similar eyes, and yes we’re
about the same size. But that’s it really, we’re totally
different otherwise. Yes we both command Voltron, and yeah we both
had the same score on the pistol range but other than that…
Hehehe,
actually now that I think about it, back at the academy we actually
took advantage of being similar on a few occasions. In fact I believe
Jeff still owes me for sitting through a lecture on jet propulsion
and its effects on the consumption on various fuels in relation to
environments while HE went out on a date!
Hmmm, I
better collect on that one, talk about boring!
Ohhh Jeff…

Dear Keith,
When are you going to tell the Princess how you really feel. With
all the royalty here on earth marrying commoners you really can't
use that excuse anymore. Also I would like to know what these pictures
are that they are talking about on Princess Allura's e-mail page?
I'm sure their are a lot of other people who would like to know.
Just someone
who wants to know.
Uwenny.
Hi Uwenny,
Tell her
what I really feel about what? Anyway, I don’t think there’s
anything about me she doesn’t know already. It’s like
she can read my mind sometimes…eerie.
The pictures
I believe you are referring to are the ones of Jeff, Cliff and I in
the locker room from our senior year back at the academy. The pictures
that are supposed to not exist! Right ladies? You know who you are!
The “Girls” told the investigating committee that they
just made up the story of having pictures of us three as a senior
prank. Some prank.
I am so
glad Jeff got stuck with Cinda and Ginger. I tell you I would have
pulled all my hair out by now if I was in command of that pair! And
if you to are reading this I have not forgiven you for the goosing
incident after we defeated the Doom fleet together!

Hi Keith...
**giggle-giggle**
We're three teenagers from
the village of Candor... our names are, Dreena, Selene and Katarina.
We're sisters!!
But I, Dreena, have a question
for you...
We are all, SOOO in love
with you! But we were wondering...do you ever date younger girls?
Selene is 16, Katarina is 14 and I'm the oldest... (Dreena) at 19.
My sisters have dared me to write you this letter and ask you...if
you... uh...if you...would...come to our village and uh...well....take
me out for lunch! HEEHEE!!
Now...I know that sounds
forward and all... but you are the most handsomest man on Arus...and
the most eligible...and well...I thought that maybe...we might...you
know... have a chance to have just one date! You know... to make my
sisters so totally jealous that it would blow their minds! Not to
mention...make my day...totally!
Would you please consider
it? I would so love it!!! **giggles**
Swooning in love over you....
Dreena
Hi Dreena,
I am truly
flattered that you would think of me in “that” way. But,
you see my life belongs to Arus first. Arus is my love. You really
wouldn’t want to date me anyway. I’m an utter buffoon
when it comes to that sort of stuff trust me.
“Keith!”
“Uh…
Hi Princess.”
“What
did you get this time another…oh you and the princess one.”
“No,
this one is well…”
“Let
me see … Oh um… well that’s nice isn’t it!”
“Allura!
She’s just a kid!”
“Well
yeah. But cant she see… see… umm never mind. I have to
go.”
“Allura?
Allura! …See what?… ALLEY!”

Hi Keith,
Keith have you been caught making love with Princess Allura? I have
source that said you was so… (EDITED FOR CONTENT) … ,
that you did not notice the picture being took.
Is that true?
EvilL
“WHAT!?!
WHAT THE!?!”
“Hey
Keith, what’s up?”
“GRRRRR…
Hunk if anyone asks you to start an e-mail column just say no! No
matter how blue her eyes are! I gotta go take a break…”
“Uh,
okay… uh Keith. Whatever you… Hey, Keith you didn’t
open the attachment! Keith?… hehehehe….”
<Click>
COUGH!
SPERBBB COUGH! Holy <BEEEP!!!> holy <BEEP!!!> <BEEEEEEEEEP!!!!!>
“Uh
Keith? …..Uhhh unnnn whoooo Keith! Whooo hooo!”
“What?
What? What is it?”
“Pidge,
I really don’t think that… Pidge! No! You’re to
young too…”
“Aww
man…and I though you had something good…”
“Uhh
Pidge?”
"Hunk,
This is nothing more than some cheap hackers attempt at celebrity
head swapping! Since when does Allura have a tattoo?"
"Hey,
you're right! Ohhhhh man and I thought… "
“hmmm
but if I brush out the tattoo and add the scar on Keith’s back
here…”
“Pidge,
you wouldn’t! That’s it!”
“Heee
owwwwh let go!”
“No
more hanging out in Lance’s room for you!”
“Hey,
I wasn’t gonna… HUNK!”

Your Highness,
I've got a question. I
just read the story on your website about, 'The Law According to Love'.
Great story by both of you! The question is... why is it that Keith
never addressed the question of changing the law, as you had suggested
in doing? Is he really afraid?
And...uh...what did you
guys do for those 'few hours together'? Inquiring minds want to know!

Dear Media
Representative...
Please...tell
me you're not related to those despicable, rude, rough-housing maniacs
from Planet Earth!!! I will not be intimidated or bullied by anyone...especially
by the media!
All questions
of that nature are handled through my royal publicist. In addition,
my personal life is just that...PERSONAL! Whatever happened or did
not happen between Commander Keith and I is NONE of your concern!
Hmmpf! Frankly, I'm appalled at such a question.
As for
the law being changed, I'm afraid you'll have to direct that question
to the Commander, himself, as I am not at liberty to answer such a
question on his behalf.
Whew...
(how was that, LCD? Was that forceful and authoritative, or what???)

try to keep this brief. I don’t care for your line of work in
the least. In these times of war you spend your time trying to drag
up dirt to soil your ruler’s reputation and if you cannot find
it you invent it, like said previous alleged photograph. We need to
hear positive stories of life moving on, people rebuilding their lives,
not this idle castle gossip. The Arusian Inquirer is not worth the
cost of the paper it’s printed on. It is a waste of time and
resources.
Now if
you are truly interested it these laws, why don’t you put your
“Journalistic” skills to better use and research it yourself!

To the Commanding
Officer of V-force, planet Arus,
Captain I
received this rather disturbing E-mail the other day and I have since
been trying to figure out just what to do with it. I can only say
that you are incredibly lucky that it fell into my hands and not Major
Harris's. He would have you standing tall before the man if HE had
seen it. I am going to send it back to you, zipped and encoded in
Garrison Priority 3 coding, so there is no risk of this falling into
the wrong hands. Captain Paladin, this email is obviously part of
a journal you seem to be keeping and I will give you a STRONG word
of warning. Keep such feelings INSIDE, where nobody can have access
to them, you are hell of a fine officer, it would be a pity to have
your promising career stripped from you because of a few misplaced
journal entries.
I quote,
"Sometimes I think
I am going to tell her, sometimes I am afraid that she KNOWS how I
feel about her, I have to be more careful, Lance and Pidge are always
looking to prove the theory! I nearly even messed up in front of NANNY
today, she asked me what my idea of a perfect Prince for Allura was
and I stuttered and stammered and , brother, can't let THAT happen
again. IF anybody found out I loved her well, I'd be stood in front
of a proverbial firing squad!"
Captain such thoughts are
best kept to one's self! Then there is this one, what were you thinking?
"Why does she have
to be a Princess, she is everything I could want in a woman and she's
a damn Princess! Isn't that always the way? You finally find what
your heart has been looking for and then you discover that for whatever
reason, you can't have it! If ever I wished I was a Prince, today
is one of those days!"
Captain do you need some
time off, Maybe a holiday on Reara 4, the planet of love! I am sure
I can schedule some for you, after all, your record shows that you
haven't had paid leave since the days of the academy!
Anyway, I will send this
back to you and wipe the database here clean, I suggest you destroy
such incriminating evidence and keep your thoughts to yourself in
future!
Your Friend in the service,
Lieutenant Major Carl Henley,
