I will admit, it was easier with the mice's help. But it is simply a matter of practice.

[And having Altean genetics I guess.]

Would you like me to do yours first?

[colorature]

_{[Maybe she's got anti-tangle built in. Whatever it is, Diva's jealous.]}

Mm...please do. I love when people do my hair.

[quintessent]

[Maybe she’s born with it, maybe it’s Maybelline. (It’s the former).]

All right- [Allura shifts to sit on the couch beside Diva, angling towards her while gesturing for the other girl to face the other direction. ]

I’ve missed this. Pidge was the only other girl on our ship, and she had no interest in this sort of thing.

[She would never say it, but sometimes... Pidge is as much of a gremlin as any of the boyse.]

[colorature]

Was she a bird?

_{[Because Diva is definitely thinking Pidge = Pidgeon right now, and considering Allura has weird mice who are hairdressers...anything's possible. Turning around she gets herself comfortable, pulling her legs up to cross them, head back so the Altean princess has full access to her head of hair.]}

[quintessent]

Why would Pidge be a bird?

[Allura is not connecting the same dots. But she will take the opportunity to start smoothing Diva's hair out with her hands, combing through the strands with her fingers and careful to be gentle around any tangles.]

She was a human, just like Lance and the others.

[colorature]

Have you never seen a pigeon before?

_{[It was a valid question, okay? She responds well to the touch of her hair, leaning into Allura's hands, pleased to feel the nails scrape over her scalp.]}

It's a kind of bird. If you've mice friends you could've had bird friends.

_{[You Disney princess.]}

[quintessent]

I.... cannot say I have.

[She wonders if maybe that is where Pidge got her nickname all along, and Allura just never got it. If there's some correlation there.

Meanwhile, she's delicately combing through Diva's hair, smiling. It's been some time since she's indulged in such a... feminine activity, so to speak. None of the boys had hair worth playing with, and they've already discussed Pidge. There's something nostalgic about it, reminding her of home and being among other Altean children,]

The mice are a bit of a special circumstance. [Though she does like animals,] They were from Altea and stowed away in my stasis pod for ten-thousand years. So I suppose you could say they are the oldest friends I have.

[Other than Coran, of course.]
