All I have to say about my personal life this time around is that while a good cosplay looks awesome, it can be utter hell to make... especially if it's a pokémon! Now, I'm going to respond to the only guest reviewer that reviews anymore. To The Drone: That chocolate thing isn't really all that difficult to make. I could have made the cupcakes and icing from scratch, but I used a cake mix and some pre-made icing because I was short on time. No one would expect home made chocolate ice cream. The only thing that requires creativity is the chocolate bowls... and those aren't even all that difficult if you know how to temper chocolate. If you don't, then Google is a good friend. ;) Also, the English dub of the Kirby anime is absolutely dreadful in every way imaginable. Then again, what could you expect from 4kids? :/ If it's at all possible, then try to watch a few of the Japanese episodes and you'll understand. Anyway, I've never really been a fan of Captain Falcon, but I'll just say each to their own. However, the main reason why I was so excited for Robin and Lucina was because of a discussion that I had with my boyfriend about it that let to there being a bet and... well, I think you know where that went. :D Now, I do have to say that Ravio being an alternate costume for Link in SSB4 or Hyrule Warriors would be one of the most awesome things to ever be awesome! His appearance in this story, though, is something you'll have to see because he's still hanging out at Zelda's place right now. Oh, and thank you very much for the compliment. To answer your question, though, I'm not all too sure. I want to finish writing Sewing Time before I even think about what I want to write next in the long term. We'll have to see closer to then. Not to mention that I'm going to collage soon, so I might have to ditch the whole 'scheduled and guaranteed release dates for chapters' thing due to my studies. I'll try to keep up to date on it and Sewing Time won't be affected, but still. That's one of those things that we'll have to see about when the time comes.

Alright everybody, I hope you all enjoy these three chapters! :D


Chapter 52: Ravio

If there were two observations that I could make about this 'Ravio' character, they were that he was really, really weird and that he was one of the most talkative people that I had ever seen. The information that could have been relayed within about fifteen minutes took roughly two and a half hours with this guy. No wonder why Zelda had invited him in; all five of us would have been very uncomfortable if we would have had to stand outside like that for that long. When he finally finished, though, Zelda simply smiled and thanked him for his contribution.

Out of all of the information that he provided, the only stuff that sounded even remotely important to our cause could be summed up by saying that dark Link was supposedly near some ancient ruins of some sort. Thankfully, Ravio had taken the time to mark the rough location on a map of the land that was once Hyrule. I could tell that Ravio was a reliable source of information because of how much it seemed as though Zelda trusted his judgment, but he required a lot a patience to actually deal with. Either way, just after Zelda had said her goodbyes to him he began to leave, but stopped in the middle of the doorway. He stood there for a short while before turning back around and looking straight at the three of us Links through that rabbit-like hooded robe of his and saying

"… I'm not supposed to say this, but I wish ya luck in taking down that dark counterpart of yours, Mr. Hero. We're all rootin' for ya." After that, he immediately closed the door behind himself. In pure reflex, Zelda reopened the door (she was the closest to it at the time) to try and get him to stop. However, as soon as she did that, he was gone. It was pretty obvious that he had escaped on foot, but he couldn't have gotten far in a robe like that, right?


Apparently, he could have gotten pretty far in a robe like that! Due to the fact that the other two Links and I were still technically considered to be slaves of Zelda's, we couldn't leave the property. Therefore, it was left solely up to Zelda to find him… and that ended in failure. When we received the news of that, future Link sighed exasperatedly and knight Link started rubbing one of his temples in annoyance.

Not only was it glaringly obvious that Ravio knew more about us than he let on, but he spoke to the three of us as though we were one person. Why did her refer to the three of us as 'Mr. Hero' and not something that suggested that there was more than one of us? It made absolutely no sense. The only explanation that I had was that he was already aware of who the three of us were, but upon asking Zelda if she had told him, she responded by stating that the only ones in our dimension who knew about all of this were the ones living in her mansion.

Future Link immediately began to suspect that one of the other hylians had let something slip to someone, but Zelda shot that idea down very quickly. According to her, nobody had left the mansion unless they were with her and that only ever led to them listening to Ravio, not talking to him. Upon hearing this, future Link dropped the subject, but that didn't mean that he stopped suspecting that that was what had happened. After all, it was pretty much impossible for any part of our story to go unheard within those walls.

In the end, we had no choice. We had to simply let him go and prepare for our trip to those ruins that Ravio was so eager to reveal to us. Meanwhile, we could only hope that he really was on our side. Zelda had vouched for him all the way, so I figured that he could be trusted, but there was still a nagging feeling in the back of my mind about him. Not about the information he gave us, but just about Ravio in general.

He was so weird…
