Video Open | un: blacklion

[The video opens with a rather hesitant looking Shiro. There's really nothing behind him as of the moment, but he does glance over at something almost right as the video kicks on]

So... it seems this place just keeps getting weirder. It seems we had some recent arrivals from our world and well... it's better to show you.

[He turned back to whatever he had been looking at]

Come here. You can come here.

[Faintly in the background there was the sound of metal moving off screen then something walked into view of the camera so others could see it. It was quite clearly a black robot lion with glowing yellow eyes, several panels glowing blue, and red wing like protrusions on its back. It's was larger than a normal lion. It walked over and sat down next to Shiro, leaning in as though trying to figure out what he was holding]

This is the Black Lion of Voltron. However, its usually not this... small.

[Yes, he is calling a robot that's larger than a normal lion small]

I'm usually shorter than Black's foot. Let me see it.

[This he says to the lion, which does raise one leg to let Shiro have its foot, but it basically drops all the weight into his hand which makes him flinch]

You are still made of metal and heavy.

[Someone might be able to faintly hear the snickering in the background, but then the next thing that happens is that Keith suddenly fell into the frame of the camera as though shoved by something, a vague red blur before it vanished. Shiro jumped when this happened and the Black Lion got up heading off camera again only to return a moment later carrying a smaller red lion by the "scruff" of the neck as Keith sat up. Shiro just put his chin in his free hand watching as Black carried Red off before he remembered this was still rolling and turned back]

They don't know their own strength.

[ooc: Meet your new neighbors, two of the lions from Voltron! Black is about the size of large liger and Red is the size of a small lion. They are... slightly more active than normal, but will probably be around their specific paladin for the most part.

Either Keith or Shiro is available to answer. If you have a preference or if your character is pinging a specific person, just let us know. It can even be both if you'd like! If no preference, random response.

The log where they arrive is still ongoing]

[ That's probably the weirdest thing X'rhun has ever seen, and this coming from a cat man who dresses like a musketeer. ]

What... what are they? They look to be magitek but they certainly don't behave like it.

They're Altean robots. But... they're oddly small here. We usually ride inside them.

[Keith had Red come over to him and open her mouth.]

See that round piece in the back? It's a laser canon. There's a hatch behind it that leads to the cockpit. Usually, it's way more than big enough for one of us to get in there.

[The Lion closed her mouth again.]

To give you a sense of perspective, Red's usually big enough that just her nose is the same height as me.

That frankly raises more questions than it answers.

[ There's a note of good humor in his voice at least. ]

They seem to be machines, and yet they behave like... like they're alive. And if they're normally as large as you say, why are they... not?
