Hi, this is Shiro. Sorry I'm unavailable at the moment, but leave a message and I'll get back to you as soon as I can.

[I died is an answer she was anticipating and yet it hits her like a blow to the gut. Guilt that she'd already considered the possibility, sorrow that she was right. All at once she wishes she would have gone to have this conversation with Shiro in person – although maybe that would be worse. To look him in the eye while he talks so casually, and so bravely about his own death.

(There’s the detail about Black keeping is consciousness that sticks in her mind as something important. For more than just the obvious relief that Shiro is somewhere, somehow alive. It just hasn’t made it the rest of the way around to considering that the same could have happened to her father, or to Zarkon for that matter.)

I’m sorry. [The words come out awkwardly, like she’s not sure what ones fit best here. A huff of breath as she recollects herself.] I don’t… There are still many mysteries surrounding the lions that even I don’t understand. But when I return. We will find a way to free you. One way or another.

[She's not all that good at reading into tone, but she can't help but notice the careful way Shiro walks around agreeing that she'll succeed. And why not, she doesn't exactly have a stellar track record for throwing into situations and coming out successful in the end. On the Galra cruiser, it was Shiro who had to come and fix her mistakes. Even in the fight with Zarkon, they walked away from it one man down.

She was nothing like her father.

But he's moving on and she stamps back the self-effacing feelings, blinking a few times to focus on his words. There's a small laugh on her side, mostly humorless but some of the tension bleeds out of her voice nevertheless.

I will do my best but I'm not sure that Keith wants me to watch over him. We don't often see eye to eye. I'm afraid he might blame me for... [Your death.] Bringing all of you into this.
