"So~?" Young Link plopped his chin in his hands with a mocking grin on his face. "How do you guys feel about Zelda?"
"Zelda?" Wolf Link repeated. His gaze shot to the ceiling in thought. "I didn't know her at all since before my whole 'save the world' thing, but I've visited her a lot since. She's nice. But she doesn't like other girls flirting with me."
"Oh?" Young Link said, now fully enticed by the conversation. "And why is that?"
"I guess she's just overprotective," Wolf Link replied with a smile. "She knows how shy I get around other people, so…"
Young Link turned stone-faced. "You serious? You don't think there's anything more going on?"
"What? Of course not!" Wolf Link laughed. "She's not like that."
Sky Link's cheeks gradually turned red at Wolf Link's words. She slumped his shoulders and stayed silent on his bench, deciding to sit this one out. However, the Young Link was staring his grandson down from his place in the rough circle they made out of benches.
"Has she ever invited you to bed?" he interrogated Wolf Link.
"No," his descendant replied flatly. "But…she did once get scared by a storm once and asked to sleep with me in my bed."
Young Link's jaw dropped, completely shocked. How could his own reincarnation be so thick-headed?! "What did you say? Please tell me you get her in."
"Of course I did," Wolf Link answered, slightly offended his ancestor would think he would turn a woman away. "I slept on the floor and let her rest in the bed."
Young Link slapped his palm to his forehead. "Are you joking? You have to be! You're so dense!"
"How so?" Wolf Link tilted his head to one side curiously.
"Dude, she wants your dick!" Young Link shouted.
Awkward silence filled the temple, everyone's face bright red by now. Wolf Link was horrified, Sky Link was embarrassed, and Young Link was just upset his grandson couldn't get that victory sex he himself missed out on.
"B-But Zelda's a princess!" Wolf Link argued. "She would never love someone like me. And she isn't so…so…"
Young Link raised an eyebrow. "Slutty?"
"Shut up!" Wolf Link clenched his fists in anger. "Don't talk about her like that!"
"Wait," Sky Link cut in. "'Princess?'"
"Quiet!" the other Links shouted. Sky Link instantly closed his mouth and sunk into his seat.
"I'm not calling Zelda a slut," Young Link sighed, becoming annoyed with Wolf Link's stupidity. "If she loves you, she loves you. Okay? It's just how it works. So don't make it clear you don't recognize her feelings. Women hate that. Show her gestures that could either be seen as romantic or friendly, like taking her out for a walk when she's stressed. Plus, who's better to lose your virginity to than a princess?"
"I was actually taking you seriously until that last part," Wolf Link groaned. "Fine. I hear you. Zelda's a beautiful woman, but she's royalty and a bit too old for me right now."
"Old?" Sky Link piped up. "But my Zelda's my age."
"Mine too," Young Link chimed in. "How old's yours?"
"Well, I'm sixteen," Wolf Link explained. "And Zelda just celebrated her twenty-first birthday. So there's a bit of an age gap. Especially considering I'm underage, so a relationship like that would be against the law."
"That's great!" Young Link laughed heartily. "My grandson attracts older women! He's so modest too. It's adorable."
"What about you?" Wolf Link asked his sky counterpart, eager to change the subject. "How to you feel about Zelda?"
"Zelda and I are actually childhood friends," Sky Link explained. "She's not a princess either. There's no such thing as princesses or anything in Skyloft. Everyone's an equal except for the heads of our Knight Academy."
"How boring," Young Link huffed. "My story is much more interesting. It all started when I found out that giant talking tree I mentioned wasn't my dad. Crazy, right? So after I found that out, I have this one Mido kid one last kick in the crotch before I ran out. For good luck, ya know? So I was told to go see the young princess Zelda. I did, chaos ensues, and I have to pull out the Master Sword. I somehow fall into a coma and wake up seven years later as an adult. I was woken up by this old man named Rauru, who was apparently watching me all that time. Creepy. I also got new clothes and earrings, but I like to not think about how that happened. By the way, do you know what it's like to just wake up one day as a teenager?"
Sky and Wolf Links shook their heads.
"It's friggin' beautiful!" Young Link suddenly became ecstatic at the topic. "Do you know what it's like to see a girl you think is pretty?! Do you?!"
The other Links began to blush again, knowing where this was going.
"I mean, I saw this ranch girl Malon after the time skip," Young Link continued, still a bit too into what he was talking about. "And I was like, 'Damn! She got hot!' I would've hit that, but her dad was with her. Disappointing, huh? Anyway, I proceeded to save the world, found out Zelda was a crossdresser, and she sent me back to my childhood where I was traumatized. The end."
He crossed his arms haughtily, satisfied with his tale. His counterparts, however, stared at him blankly, at a loss for words. Luckily, they were relieved of the silence by Volga bursting into the hall.
"Grab your weapons and get outside!" he shouted. "The enemy is approaching our base. Be careful of the sorceress with them. She's dangerous."
The Links looked at one another with determined glances, ready to put their differences aside for the greater good. They slung the swords they leaned against the benches over their soldiers, and dashed out of the temple with Volga.
*I know nothing happened in this chapter, but Young Link's recounting of OoT was soooooooo fun! At first I was going to have it broken up like Wolf Link's story, but I decided having him ramble would be a) easier and b) more fitting of his personality.
OoT Link: I especially like the part about kicking Mido. =w=
SS Link: I think every player wanted to do that in the game at one point or another.
And about Wolf Link calling Zelda a princess, yes, I know, she's a queen. But you'll get an explanation sooner or later about why he refers to her that way. It's nothing plot important, but I just wanted to let you all know I noticed it and it was deliberate. :) I know this was short, but next chapter, A WILD LANA APPEARS!
K bye.*
