They were definitely, totally, not friends right now. In fact, he didn't give a damn to Din if they were ex-friends for the rest of Time, because he would never, ever be friends with her again. Or any girls, because girls were so stupid. He'd go out and spend the rest of the day with Epona…wait, she was a girl too wasn't she?
'Horses don't count,' Link grumbled to himself sourly, 'especially smart horses like Epona.' At least his horse had never been stupid enough to yell at him over a silly joke. Okay, so maybe putting egg yolk in someone's shampoo wasn't such a tiny joking prank, but it wasn't like Zelda had been hurt by it. Stupid! The whole thing was stupid.
Not his loss, though, because he couldn't be friends with someone who'd scream and throw things at him over a prank. If you couldn't take a joke, then there was no reason to be friends with you, as far as the ten-year old was concerned. He'd have thought Zelda would get a laugh out of it, something he thought everyone needed more of, but apparently he'd been, well, wrong.
Maybe it was wrong of him to be mad at her for getting upset about the prank too. The young boy paused in his anger to ponder that new viewpoint. It did seem kind of stupid to consider throwing away their entire friendship over a small fight like this, after all. And he knew Zelda could take a joke, that she loved them just as much as he did. 'I guess we won't be ex-friends for the rest of Time, then. I'd have to be stupid to let my biggest and best fan go just because she didn't appreciate one of my great jokes.'
