Oshen Ukhar
The Flame
The sun hid behind the clouds on the day of my interview at The Flame, the bar Bay Yari was manager of. I had on my best suit and my best earring. I walked in the door expecting to see nothing but a bar and stools but I found there was stainless steel Bar and Kitchen behind that, the room was huge filled with tables with seating for four, five, six, and twenty. I was told to meet Harold, the owner of The Flame, in the office, so I walked the bartender, a very good looking Terminan Zora who was Ice blue in tone, I told him I am here to see Harold he pointed me to the back of the bar where there was an entrance to the kitchen and proceed to tell me that I need to go through there and make a right at the Bathrooms and then his office at the end of that hall. I thanked him and headed towards the office.
"Come in" Harold called after I knocked on the door.
"Hello, I am Oshen Ukhar." I said confidently
"Have a seat, so you are Bay Yari's boyfriend I can see why he likes you." He said. That's when I noticed that Harold was not Zoran but he was a rather large hairy Goron, the complete opposite of who I thought Harold would be. He interviewed me, by asking about my previous work experience and I had no job before this so I brought up how I saved the Zora Queen's Banquet when I was a sophomore in high school. After 20 minutes he told me I have the job and I was to start in two nights at 4:00pm. After the interview I headed back to the cave to talk to Bay Yari.
The sky let loose about a minute after I left the Market and it was a very refreshing rain that I really enjoyed. I walked in to find Bay Yari cooking a small lunch of Terminan trout and Hyrulian Corn which smelled great.
"Smells Fabulous, hunny" I said as put my arms around his waist from behind.
"Well, how did the interview go?" he asked inquisitively
"Let us just say we live and work under the same roofs" I smiled
"That's fabulous babe" he said as he pulled me closer to give me a kiss, "lunch is almost ready"
"Oh, I start work in two nights." I called from the living room
"We both will cause in two nights it is the when The Flame celebrates Gay Pride." He answered back over the sizzle of trout on the grill, "the theme is Ancient Hyrule Era of the Hero of Time, and you should go as the goddess of nature you can pull it off. I am going as the hero of times best friend a Hyrulian prince Andrew the future Light Temple Guard."
"Well you sound like you will look hot in that costume and you really think I can pull off the goddess of nature or would it be better if I was the fairy of Magic?" I replied
"Go with the fairy of magic you will look very good in that" he said as he entered the room with 2 plates of Trout Corn and silverware.
I ate the meal while thinking of how I can get the costume for the fairy of magic in only 2 hours and then I remembered there is a magical mask shop in Hyrule Castle Town but they cost too much and there have been a lot of articles in the paper warning about the use of them, then can cause you to permanently be transformed in to the mask character.
"Bay Yari are you going to buy a costume or make yours?"
"Buy it this year because I do not have the time or patience to sew right now" he answered, "we need to get going if we are going to find the costumes."
"I am ready whenever you are" I answered.
The sky was no longer dark the clouds had lifted and the evening sun was warming the air and causing it to become a little humid on the trip to the Market. Though being Zora's me and Bay Yari did not mind it at all, though it did make me miss the Domain at this time of day and after a storm like the one that just past, the air thick with humidity and all the Zora's out diving in the pool in the common floor to cool off then running to Prince Aibu's (cloud) room an jumping of his balcony overlooking the Common floor, but that was then and this is now. So I cleared that from my mind and started to think of what I could get for my costume.
We were in the Costume shop behind the mask shop for a mere 10 minutes when Bay Yari found his get up and then we could not find anything for me so we would have to go to the second hand clothing store to find something. We look all throughout the store before the Associate asked us what we were looking for they said they had one in the store in Kakariko Village and that we would have to go up there to get it cause the delivery boy was out ill and he would not be back till next week.
"Bay Yari we will need to go there and get it I think it will be worth the trip" I pleaded
"Okay, but we will have to leave tonight to get there and back in time. Let us go back home and gather some supplies and get going" he said
"Right behind you babe" I called after him.
