Author's Note: A short one this time, but I wanted to do a drabble that focussed on Pidge and Green, and I also used a prompt from Browntiger15's Very Merry Voltron list: post/154409012939/very-merry-voltron-2016 Today's prompt was Memories/Resoulation and it seemed to fit.

It was late, and Pidge knew everyone else in the castle was asleep. Logically, she should be too, but she couldn't, not yet. She continued to rapidly type at her keyboard and tried to resist the urge to rub her eyes.

"So close on getting this program to work," she muttered. "Just need to-"

A growl was heard from behind and Pidge paused to glance at Green who was giving her a glare. Pidge sighed as she turned back to her computer.

"I know it's late, but I'm almost done," she argued.
Green growled again.

"I know I said that half an hour ago," Pidge said and then saw the clock on her laptop. "Fine, an hour ago, but I just got to get this to work-"

Green promptly cut her off by leaping up onto her desk and then plunked herself on the keyboard. Pidge grunted as she yanked her hands free and scowled at the lion.

"Green, off," Pidge demanded.

Green stayed where she was and flicked her tail.

"Come on, Green," Pidge whined as she tried to shove her off.

Green dug in her paws and refused to move an inch. Pidge grumbled in defeat as she leaned back in her chair. "You're not going to move until I go to bed are you?"

Green gave a nod and flicked her tail.

Pidge ran a hand through her hair and shook her head. "Alright, you win tonight. I'll be good and go to bed."

Green purred as she watched Pidge get out of her chair and climb over to her bed and continued to watch until Pidge had climbed under the covers. Green then jumped off the computer and climbed up to be laying on top of Pidge's chest.

Pidge gave a laugh as she scratched Green's ears. "You're as bad as Rover, you know that?"
Green blinked at her.

"My dog back on earth," she explained as she used her other hands to scratch under Green's chin. "He would always just sit there and whine at me until I got off the computer to cuddle with him."

Her eyes soften at the memory and she frowned. "Hope he's doing okay. Not quite sure he understood I had to go away for awhile."

Pidge did miss him. Her dog always seemed to sense when she need company. He had practically clung to her the days after learning her father and brother had disappeared. The little robot Pidge had named in his honor had acted strangely similar to Rover, which made it even more heartbreaking when it had sacrificed itself to take out that Galran soldier.

Green gave a comforting purr as she nuzzled Pidge's cheek.

"Granted, he loves cuddling with Mom too," Pidge continued. "...I wonder how she's doing."

Her one regret before leaving Earth was that Pidge had been unable to tell her mother what had happened. Granted, Pidge wasn't certain her mother would have approved of her going off in a giant robot lion and fight evil aliens.

Although, Mom did surprise me by helping with my undercover at the Garrison, Pidge thought.

Pidge had no intention of revealing her plans of attending the Garrison under a secret identity to her mother. Pidge had assumed she would stop her immediately, especially after the Garrison had her arrested for sneaking into their base and hacked their computer. That plan went up in smoke when her mother discovered her fake ID cards and demanded to know what was going on.

Pidge confessed and expected her mother to reject it wholeheartedly and ground her for life, except she didn't. Instead, her mother sighed and suggested Pidge cut her hair to further conceal her real identity.

"I won't stop you," her mother had explained to her shocked face. "Because you are your father's daughter, but more importantly you are mine. If I tell you not to, you will simply find a way to sneak in regardless."

She had pulled Pidge into a tight hug then. "Just promise me, no matter what you find, you will come home." Her mother gave her a squeeze. "I couldn't bare to lose you too, Katie."

Pidge swore she never hugged her mother so hard except for when they heard the news report on the failed Kerberos mission.

Pidge sighed as she hugged Green. "When I get home, I'm introducing you to Mom," she stated. "She's a big cat person so she'll love you."
Green gave a soft approving growl as she nuzzled under her chin.

"And Matt, he loves cats," Pidge continued and chuckled. "Although, he would probably try to put his baseball hats on you. He does it to Rover." She gave a yawn. "Dad would probably try to feed you scraps from the table, even though you don't need to eat."

Green purred as Pidge shut her eyes. "Rover would want to play with you. So, you need to be gentle with him, okay? He's..a huge..softie."

Pidge gave in to sleep and began to snore softly. Green lifted her head and then repositioned her body so she was cuddling up against her paladin's side. In her sleep, Pidge muttered and wrapped an arm around Green.

Feeling content, Green purred into her ear as Pidge dreamed of the day her family would be reunited.
