[There's muffled childish cursing and a weird angled view of a little blond boy with pointed ears. He's dressed in green and has a shield that's too large for a child, and a sword that's just right.]
This is weird.
[The boy peers at the camera, big blue eyes curious.]
Navi, where are you?
This is weird.
[The boy peers at the camera, big blue eyes curious.]
Navi, where are you?
Re: Action
Oh, that makes sense.
[As much as Hyrule can.]
A silver tongue and a good sword arm. What can't you do?
[Well, as much as Ted's misgivings might be, he can't help but be interested in Link's adventures, glad that he's managed to survive all of them. He fills the rest of the trip's time that way, until they finally reach the K&H Home.]
...ah, we've arrived. Thank you for being obedient and coming this way with me. Do you need anything? They ought to see to the essentials in there, of course, but just in case.
Re: Action
I can probably look in the grass for rupees. How much does it cost to stay here? Should I maybe find a tree or something to sleep in? In case it's too expensive?
[Feral child.]
Re: Action
[Challenge accepted. Eventually. Maybe. He gives Link a confused look, then laughs.]
Oh, no, haha, no, it's not quite like that. This is a charitable place where children are looked after, for they cannot look after themselves. Well, I suppose you can, enough for others too, but it's best not to assume. Didn't you want for fellows your own age? Well, here they are. Don't worry, it doesn't cost anything but more of your agreeableness. I think we'd all rest easier if you rested here.
[Probably forever, just to be on the safe side.]
Re: Action
[That was interesting. Why were they all housed together? Didn't regular kids have parents and stuff?]
Where are their parents? Didn't they want 'em?
Re: Action
Yes; I especially think you'll like Tony, another who likes to bite off more than he can chew. I believe you could be fast friends.
[He almost choked. Very dark, Link!]
Ah ha, ah...probably in the same position as the Great Deku Tree. That is...everyone arrives here alone, and children are no exception, I'm afraid. So we like to gather them together to keep watch over the especially vulnerable among us, you understand.
Re: Action
Then, his expression went a little bleak.]
Oh, they're dead. That happens. Guess kids would need some place to live if that happened.
I can take care of 'em.
Re: Action
What? No, no, they aren't...wait-
[Man this kid moves fast.]
The Great Deku Tree died? Oh Link, I'm so sorry. I had no idea. That must've been hard to bear. What I meant was that people are just...separated. That's probably why you couldn't find this Navi of yours.
But I'm heartened for all that; I was just about to ask that very thing. If you could look after the others, I mean.
Re: Action
[Link did relax a little.]
Sure, I can do that! I like helping people.
Re: Action
Ahehe, as would we all...
[He has to wonder if Link is happily morbid or morbidly happy]
That's wonderful! Such an inspirational youth! [That inspires him to rub that ridiculous cap and give an encouraging slap on the back...or shield.]
Really, Link, I'm glad to hear it; a lot of children have come through as of late, and I was starting to worry whether they had common company and safety enough. Just, ah, try not to scare anyone too much with that blade of yours. Be responsible, now. And stay out of trouble! Unless trouble finds you, then I trust you'll know what to do.
I'd say more about whom you're going to meet in there, but I bet you'd rather see for yourself. I know I'll be seeing you all soon; I like to make weekly visits and entertain. Thanks again! It was fortunate meeting you; farewell! Oh, and don't neglect to call if you need anything; mind your phone and all that.
[A few more hurried partings and the far more ridiculously-dressed blonde would depart, day thoroughly made.]
