[ Allura did start this line of questioning as "theoretical", but the possibility of it crossing into the realm of "practice" was definitely tempting.
She'll ask more about Earth malls once she's actually seen one. ]
You would be right about that.
[ They did sneak out successfully once before, but Allura felt that they wouldn't have to rely on a pod that risked explosion should this theorizing come to reality. ]
[First thought in his head? Letting the others visit their families back on Earth, but he wasn't sure if that was too heavy of a request.]
Ah, well... maybe... [And he really didn't have much to request for himself, other than maybe taking time to locate his mother's family, but he really had little to no leads on that, so where to even start? He sighed.] Maybe a day off from training? For everybody.
[ Allura had been thinking of something more... grandiose, actually. But seeing that bit of selflessness was quite sweet, she found. ]
That's quite acceptable! You got yourself a deal. [ She gave him an odd little smile. ] You know, I was somehow thinking of naming a star after you, or a planet, perhaps.
[ Alteans have a strange way of putting value to things, it seems. See: Coran. ]
I mean, if you really are looking for a bigger favor, it would be nice to get back to Earth some time, but I don't really know if that's a good idea until we're sure it won't be put in danger by us being there.
[ Keith would find himself to be correct, what with the apologetic smile Allura gave him. ]
Not any time soon, I'm afraid. But-- likewise, I don't need a favor done for me to do that. Being able to visit your home planet as you please is a right, not a privilege.

What would be your price, then?

[ And her smile turned gentle. ]
Something we'll make right, yes?
no subject
Yeah. I think the others need that.
