It was an uneventfully dull afternoon. The New Champions had settled down in Hateno Village. Not having anything planned, Link and Zelda decided to let the group of warriors relax and set them loose. That might not have been the best idea on Zelda's part, and she was willing to take full responsibility. Sidon was a bit much.
"Let's get those Yiga Creeps, Patricia!"
"Let's set seal!"
"Let's go!"
Speak of the devil.
Link and Riju, who were playing with her stuffed sand seals, were now already frustrated with the large zora. He found a dirty, tattered doll that was missing strands of yarn hair and tried to join in on the game. He touched Riju's seal with it and got her toy muddy.
The gerudo narrowed her eyes at him. "Goddammit, Sidon…" She stood up, brushed off her skirt, and turned on her heel to leave. Link's face fell and he let out a sigh.
~~~ LATER THAT DAY~~~
Link was finishing up lunch. A beautifully crafted pumpkin stew with hylian herb sprinkled on top. The dish looked divine and just looking at it made Link's mouth water. Everyone is going to love this, he thought to himself. He was sure that the aroma alone was enough to warm even Teba's heart. He stirred the stew and reached for a bowl- a... Bowl… Where was it?! Link's heart sank. Did he really not have anything to serve the food in? Everyone was beginning to grow impatient as Link searched frantically through every pack he had. He had to find something. Anything! He froze when saw Sidon pass by holding every single bowl they had stacked in his hands. He was hoarding them! His mouth agape, he heard Sidon speak to Yunobo, who was quickly washing the cups in preparation for the meal. Link pursed his lips and sharply inhaled. He clenched his fists and watched the Zora.
"Hey, Yunobo! You doin' dishes? Uh, here, do some more." He laid the bowls next to the poor man and simply walked away. Yunobo threw down the rag into the water n frustration and flinched when the water splashed him in protest.
~~~ EVEN LATER~~~
Zelda was studying the pictures Link took on his slate. As she scrolled through his compendium, she squealed in excitement, letting the world know how impressed she was that Link was able to document everything during his travels. But of course, the moment didn't last forever. A certain special Zora had come up to her with a very important question. He needed answers, and he needed them now!
"Zelda, can I have some milk?" Sidon was grinning cutely at her, with all of his teeth showing. The Hylian princess narrowed her eyes at him for ruining such a precious moment.
She huffed. "We don't have any milk, Sidon." She looked back down at the Slate and smiled once again. Sidon pushed it down to get her attention and she accidentally dropped it.
"Milk, please!" He smiled once again, this time wider, in hopes that she'll fulfill his request, but she only let out a growl in response. Sidon took this as a cue to leave, so he turned with an awkward expression.
~~~ UGH~~~
Sitting alone, perched up in a tree above the village, Teba was relaxing, feeling the breeze, and listening to the rustling of the leaves. There was an orange glow on his feathers from the setting sun he had a perfect view of. Beautiful hues of color stretched out across the sky He was stringing his bow and was making a mental note to buy more equipment from Harth as he was already running low. After an hour or so of deep meditation, he was sure nothing, not even Ganon, would be able to cause him any stress-
"Hello, my friend!" The sudden shout totally took Teba by surprise, causing him to fall out of the tree and hit the ground with a 'THUD' and a 'SNAP' was heard. Teba's eyes widened after the initial shock of making hard contact with the ground. He quickly stood up and reached down to grab a broken bow, the two halves held together only by the string. His face was blank, but his eyes were cold. He slowly turned to the taller man and looked up into his eyes.
He inhaled, eyes wide with pure rage. "GODDAMMIT SIDON!" He yelled so loudly, he disturbed the flocks of birds around them.
The moon was rising and there was a chill in the air. All of the New champions sat on the floor around Link's bed and all held items that resemble their collective disappointment and frustration with the man who has been terrorizing them all day. Zelda cradled the now cracked Shiekah Slate, Yunobo held the dishes Sidon had been keeping to himself, Link- the empty pot, Riju hugged her dirty sand seal toy, and Teba was desperately trying to mend his bow with the only thing he could find- duct tape. Link was the first to speak everyone's mind.
"Guy's I think… it's time we do something about-"
"Sidon!" everyone shouted in unison in feux happiness, except Teba who said his name in a monotone voice, not bothering to hide his anger.
The prince walked approached them with a charming smile on his face and a tray of tea cups in his hands. "I made you guys tea!" He flashed them his signature toothy grin and placed the tray in the middle of the group.
Everyone smiled at the kind gesture and Teba forced a smirk to show gratitude.
"Goddammit, Sidon, that's nice of you," the Rito said. He looked over into the cups and saw they were filled with water and whole sugar packets. They all muttered words of disappointment and confusion and looked up at him. Sidon had his chest puffed out in pride of his own kindness.
Link didn't know what to say. "...Thanks…?"
"Can I get you anything else? Like sugar, honey, salt, bees, cats, dogs, rabbits, frogs…"
Teba hesitantly reached into the cup and grabbed a sugar packet. "Ugh… Milk, please."
Sidon, who somehow spawned a gallon of milk, poured it into a tall glass up to the rim and looked the Rito directly in the eye and chugged the whole glass. Milk ran dripped down his chin. It was a truly disgusting display. When he finished, he let out a breath. "Sorry, what was that?"
