It's not you that I don't trust. I know it's hard for you to trust anyone who's Galra. But from where I stand, something about it seems off. It doesn't seem right.

If our timelines ever do align, then perhaps things will feel right.
But even here we are on the same team, and we must focus on our mission. We cannot let our own bias get in the way of finding a solution for these people. [and even if Keith has something to say to that, she remains looking away from the video feed.] I...have to go. I will speak to you later.
[Keith is somehow surprised that he's not the one ending this conversation.]
All right, Princess.
[A beat later:]
The mission will be fine. I don't fail missions.
[It's probably an empty reassurance given his temper not so long ago, but ... it's the best he can offer. Keith is and will always be terrible at comfort.]
