Allura didn't know what to say. She looked at the two girls with a slightly open mouth. She quickly collected herself and forced a smile on her face. He held up the bags to them.

"How about we get you girls some clothes." She said, Keith's bedroom door opening. The room was very clean, to Allura's surprise. Zelda ran to the bed and swung her legs over the mattress to get up. Nova had gently touched Allura's hand. Her fingers gripping her index finger and pulling lightly.

Oh, Allura realized, she's trying to get one of the bags.

The bags were about the size of an earth trashbag, made of similar material, and a forest green color. Nova undid the knotted strings holding the bag closed as Allura placed down the other bag she was holding. She undid the knot as well and Zelda had jumped off the bed. She landed on her feet and lifted her arms up over her head. She flicked her wrists and rose to her tiptoes.

Nova giggled and pulled out a small gown. It was decorated with white pearls near the collar, cuffs of the sleeves, and the helm of the dress. It was a blush pink color and Nova held it up to herself. She looked down, hair dripping over the dress as she examined the fabric. Her brows furred and her tongue poked out from between her lips. Allura resisted the urge to coo. The girls were dressed in whatever clothes Voltron had managed to have saved from their crash landing in the castle. Zelda wore her oversized shirt that went down to her mid calves, and Nova stayed in her ripped jeans. Keith had given her a sleep shirt that Allura had offered to the paladins as pajamas when they spent their first night at the castle. It was too big and often nearly fell off her, but Keith had managed to wrap it around her to where the shirt was more supported on her petite frame. The sleeves had been transformed into a necklace like a strip, holding the rest of the shirt up. It had been double knotted to ensure it was secure.

"So, are you our Aunt?" Zelda asked as she reached into the bag Allura had opened. Allura felt a blush rise to her cheeks. She was flattered, really, but she was unsure of what position she had taken in the children's lives (if any, seeing as Keith probably hadn't planned on them meeting).

"Um, I don't know, you'll have to ask your daddy." Allura choked out, once again forcing a smile.

"What would you like us to call you then?" Nova questioned. Allura bit her lip before answering.

"Allura is fine. Princess Allura."

Zelda gasped and Nova's eyes widened. Zelda then squealed and yanked her hands out of the bag.

"You're a princess?!" Nova screamed and dropped the dress she was holding. The dress had been dropped softly and Allura couldn't resist her urge to laugh.

"Why yes, I am the princess of Altea." She smiled at them and pulled out a mint green dress. She held it up to Zelda and hummed.

"I think this will go great with your hair color." She complimented as she handed the dress to the five-year-old. Zelda took the dress and looked over it. The dress was covered in flowers. Pink and yellow rose buds blossomed from the seams on the shoulders and around the waist. The mint green color was invaded with dark green vines and the bottom was covered in soft, plus forest leaves. Allura had worn it to a dance festival as a young girl. She reminisced in fond memories as Zelda tried it on hesitantly.

The dress was a bit big, puffing at the shoulders and brushing against the floor, but she had liked it.

Nova had also found a dress she had appreciated. It was simple, no designs of flowers or Altean animals, instead, it was a solid color and the sleeves were bell-piped. The blue dress came just above her knees and the bottom was made of a flowy fabric of the same navy color. It flowed to the floor with the uneven helm line, covering the back of her knees but exposing the front.

"Well don't you look nice," Allura cooed at her. Nova made a face at her, Allura was taken back.

"Why are you complimenting us? Aren't these your clothes?" She demanded, anger forming in her. Allura softened and she replied with a gentle tone.

"I am no longer a girl and have grown too big for these gowns. So I thought I'd let you two take a look at them and pick out a few you'd like, seeing as your luggage on the Galran cruiser had been destroyed." She told her.

Nova huffed and looked the other way. Zelda shook her head and placed a hand on Allura's leg.

"Don't be sad, Nova just doesn't like it that Snailz didn't make it out with her."

"Snailz?"

Nova nodded and sniffled.

"He was my teddy bear." She whispered.

Allura sighed and got out another dress.

"Well, no worries dears, I'm sure we can find you a new Snailz." Allura had no idea what a teddy bear was but wanted the girls to be happier when trying on clothes.

Nova, looking hopeful, nodded and turned back to the bag of dresses she had opened. She grabbed one that was covered in frills and lace.

"Ooh, pretty!" Zelda exclaimed. Nova tossed it to her.

"Ick, frills." She murmured as Zelda proceeded to look overjoyed. Zelda placed the dress on Keith's bed, next to the flower dress she had seen earlier. She then sat next to Allura, plopping herself down next to the Altean and looked through the bag with her. Her elbow brushing against her arm.

"Novie, look at this one!" Zelda held up a dress that had a jean jacket as the top, and then a longer version of a tutu for the bottom. The two pieces were connected with a thick elastic ribbon stretching over the waist. The jean jacket was a pale blue, the ribbon a soft pink, and the tutu a stormy grey.

"Pretty!" Nova said in awe. Zelda slid it over to her and continued her search.

She placed it in the dress pile that was behind her. Allura showed the girls a dress with a satin skirt. Neither of the girls had liked it much.

After a total of 20 minutes of dress hunting, the two little girls had 4 dresses each. Zelda had the flower dress, a dress taken over by frills and lace, a yellow ballgown that she claimed came from the Earth film "Beauty and the Beast", as well as an evening party dress that was showered with crystals that gave the illusion of rainbows. Nova had chosen a more simple style compared to her younger sister. She had the blue dress with the uneven helm, the jean jacket tutu combo dress, a dress that was violet with a brown leather belt around the waist, and a dress that went to the floor with long sleeves that were the color of the sea.

Keith had come in just as the girls were helping Allura put back the reject dresses.

"Have fun?" he asked with a small smile. He had a towel wrapped around his hips and his chest was bare. Allura felt as if she should be more flustered upon seeing Keith half-naked, but didn't even feel an ounce of embarrassment. Keith turned to her, one hand on his hip to hold up the towel.

"Thanks again for letting them have some of your clothes. I wouldn't know what I'd do if Nova had to spend whatever time she has left in space in an oversized sleep shirt." Keith said. Allura clasped her hands together and got up from her spot on the floor.

"Oh please, it was no trouble at all! I've long outgrown these gowns and it wasn't like I have two adorable little girls to spoil with them. Besides, who can say no to those darling faces?" Keith chuckled at her answer and gazed over at his daughters. Zelda was pretending to be a model, exaggerating every step as Nova pretended to be paparazzi following her every move with a "camera" (read: awkward finger motions with small tongue clicks added in) in her hand.

"But, seriously, I really do appreciate it." He added, walking over to a small dresser and pulling out a black shirt. Allura watched as he slipped it on with one hand and then turned back to her.

"It was no trouble. However, they asked me a question repeatedly that I was not sure how to answer." She told him. Keith cocked an eyebrow,

"Oh?"

Allura looked down at her hands.

"They had asked if I was their Aunt Allura." She admitted with a blush.

Keith huffed and looked back at his daughters. They had now entered the conversation.

"Is our Aunt a Princess, Daddy? She says she is but where is her evil stepmother?" Keith laughed at that and looked at Allura grinning. He looked her up and down and then looked back at his children,

"She is a Princess, trust me on this one. And yeah, girls this is your Auntie Allura."
