Happy Friday! Hope you enjoy this chapter.

Quick note-

"This" means telepathic conversation

This means written


Logan was bad at feelings. He never knew how to react to romance or express love. And he knew this fact. But it didn't stop him from loving his soulmate Katie.

Ever since he was little, Logan had a dark green soulmark between his shoulder blades. It was shaped like a star, and his brother Roman told him that his soulmate had the same mark somewhere on their own body. But that wasn't the only thing different from his family: Logan had a voice in his head. It was the voice of a girl, and they would have conversations about space and math and how other people were terrible. His parents had insisted it was imaginary, but Logan knew it was different. He knew he didn't have a big enough imagination to create the complex character who he talked to.

He didn't have solid proof till was 10, however. He was sitting in class, completely bored. They were talking about the colour wheel in his (mandatory) art class, about how red and blue make purple and how yellow and blue make green. He didn't see the point of art class. So instead of paying attention like he would in math or history, he began scribbling math equations on his wrist in blue ink.

1+1=2

2+2=4

3+3=6

4+4=8

5+5=10

6+6=12

7+7=14

8+8=16

9+9=18

10+10=20

Suddenly, beneath his neat list of numbers, the equation 11+11=22 appeared in green pen. Logan stared in awe at his arm as the green ink continued the list until it got to 20+20=40. At this point the list almost stretched to his elbow joint.

Who are you? He wrote next to the column.

Katie came the reply in a cutsie handwriting.

I'm Logan. He looked down at his arm and tapped his own to his lips debating whether or not to ask a question. He set the pen on his arm again. Are you the voice in my head?

For a moment, nothing appeared. But the voice came into his head again.

"Logan?" The voice sounded unsure, but Logan felt an unfamiliar warmth in his chest.

"Katie?"

"Omigosh!" the shrillness of Katie's exclamation caused Logan to flinch a little. "Logan I think we're soulmates!"

"That...makes sense. But just to be sure, do you have a soulmark?"

"Yeah," Katie immediately replied. "I have a dark blue star on my upper back."

Logan sucked in a shaky breath. "I have a dark green star between my shoulder blades."

"This is so cool! I can't believe…" Suddenly Katie cut off. "Shoot, my teacher just caught me daydreaming in the middle of Gym class. Better get running."

"Good luck," Logan though before tuning back into Miss Valerie's lecture on primary colours.

Almost five years later, Katie sat on the roof of The Garrison. She listened to the radio chatter and stared at the stars. She'd snuck into the school months ago under the guise of "Pidge Gunderson"; a clever disguise thought up by Logan once Katie had convinced him that sneaking into an elite space school was the only way to avenge/find her brother and father. So she'd slipped in and proceeded to learn and hack her way through. She and Logan were in near constant communication, both verbal and with ink. Whenever Katie needed advice on how to be a guy, Logan would chime in mentally or write back if he was focusing on something else.

She was suddenly snapped out of her thoughts when Lance whispered creepily in her ear. Luckily, he hadn't figured out her secret, but he still managed to be annoying as heck sometimes. She decided to trust him and his friend with her findings about Kerberos, aliens, and the so called "voltron" that kept appearing.

A comet/space ship, an unconscious hero, a giant blue lion, a crazy wormhole, a magic castle, an alien encounter, weird green food goo, and a giant green lion later, Katie found herself in a room of her own in said castle on an alien planet. She set her green pen to her arm and began to tell Logan about what had happened. Luckily she was ambidextrous, because she had so much to tell that it covered both her forearms and both thighs.

...and then the cave floor crumbled underneath us and we found this giant, blue, robotic lion. At first I thought it was the "voltron" I told you about, but then a vision filled my head showing that the lion was only part of Voltron, which is actually this ginormous mecha with a flaming sword…

...and I started to panic because i'm not a pilot and what if there weren't pedals!? But Shiro calmed me down. We found this cave made of tree roots and I went in. The Green Lion is smaller than the blue lion, but I knew immediately that this Lion and I were going to kick some Galra trash together…

Katie eventually managed to fall asleep, but Logan stayed up for a while rereading the fantastic story his soulmate was living. He couldn't get a strong telepathic connection with her, but the ink was enough. Before falling asleep himself, he glanced out the window at the stars.

"Good luck Katie."
