"You've fought monsters and barely got a scratch, but broke your arm while tripping over a book." Shad wasn't facing Link, but he could feel the hero's glare.

"He didn't break his left arm." Zelda said. "Link can still use his sword."

"Let's not give him any ideas." Shad looked up, locking eyes with Link. "I apologize for leaving the book out."

Link shrugged.

Leaning down, Shad placed a kiss on his wrist, just below Link's cast. It was something his mother had done, kissing away the pain. It couldn't fix everything, but judging by Link's grinning face, it helped.
