Yxme: *Slowly creeps on stage* .
Pens, Paper, Zayril, Link, Midna, Navi, Austin and every other fan of the story: WHERE THE HELL HAVE YOU BEEN?
Yxme: Meep. Uhm... Heh heh! You see... I've not expected my summer to be so busy... And... It's been tiring... I haven't had much time to write... Not to mention I was moving back into my mom's house since dad lost his job... And then my older sister had her baby, and may I say that this little girl is very quiet and very adorable, but that's beside the point. Now, I need to apologize to you all... I'm sorry. It's not gone according to plan at all. I had hoped for updates every two weeks and now I'm updating extremely late. After posting this, I'm going to straight back to writing the story. I'm sorry.
Austin: *Sighs* Alright. Thanks. I just don't think we like getting left behind to collect dust. But, you have good excuses so we forgive you.
Midna: Tch. Speak for yourself. GET HIM! *Charges with an angry mob*
Austin: Yxme24 does NOT own the Legend of Zelda. Obviously. Or Skull kid would be in every game. And Navi. And the Deku Scrubs.
Yxme: OH DEAR GOD! MY LEGS! Enjoy the chapter! :3
Midna: SILENCE! *Kicks him*
Chapter 11: Of clothes, prophecies, and knives to the face
The Arbiter tossed me an energy sword, and I activated it, blue light shimmering from the contained plasma.
"Hurry human! You must be swift if you wish to live! Destroy the parasite!", He said to me as he slashed at an infection form. I nodded and began to attack the small, rotten smelling creatures who ogled me hungrily.
I groaned sleepily as I felt my face being poked. I slowly opened my eyes and looked up at the glowing blue fairy looking me in the eye. I was silent as she smiled at me.
"... Yes?...", I asked sleepily. Navi giggled and stood up.
"Get up! Let's go out! Link already left to go fishing! Let's go look around Castle Town!", Navi said as she gently shook my face. I yawned and licked my dry lips. Navi buzzed around my head in excitement as I sat upright. I looked around and rubbed my eyes, trying to lessen the blur. I looked to my left and noticed Telma behind the counter, serving up a few drinks to various townspeople. I looked to my right and noticed some jerky, grapes and a mug of water sitting on a plate next to me. A small smile spread across my face and I took a large gulp of the water from the mug, quenching my parched throat. Navi picked a grape and ate it, as I grabbed some of the heavenly goat jerky from Ordon. As we finished up the food, I brought the plate up to the bar and smiled at Telma.
"Thank you very much for the food! Me and Navi are gonna go look around Castle Town today, so we'll see you later!", I thanked her as I opened the door outside. The bar was silent, save for Telma.
"Alright! Have fun you two!", She said waving as we left. The patron eating his food right next to her looked at Telma in shock.
"What was that thing?", He asked after swallowing the food he had left hanging in his mouth. Telma smirked and crossed her arms.
"He, is a gentleman. And an imp, if that's what you meant.", Telma said with a chuckle. The man tilted his head in confusion before shrugging and returning to his meal.
"Oi Telma! Another round of malts for my friends here!", A voice called from the other end of the bar.
"Sure thing, honey! I'll be right there!", Telma called back, as she took out four mugs.
I passed by the hustle and bustle of the busy morning rush in castle town and walked around the fountain, receiving many nervous looks from the passing people who were paying attention to their surroundings. I smiled and waved, causing them to rush away in a panicked manner. I sighed and looked down into the rippling water at my reflection. Navi buzzed around me happily, absorbing the energy from all around her. She looked ecstatic. After all, this had been the first time she'd been to Castle Town in a long time.
"Hey Navi? I'm not... Scary, am I?", I asked trying to find the right word. Navi stopped buzzing around me and looked at me through the reflection in the water.
"Scary? Of course not! People may be a little unsettled by your fangs though... Those are pretty sharp looking.", Navi said pointing out my teeth. I chuckled and bared my fearsome fangs. They glimmered from the reflection of the sun and I chuckled as I turned around.
"I guess so... But that's the only thing, right?", I asked her to be sure. She looked me in the eye and smiled.
"Well, they might be nervous by your eyes... But I think they're nice! They look like the sunset after all!", Navi told me with a cute smile. I blushed at the compliment and smiled nervously.
"Really? I-I never knew that... Thanks.", I said to her with a bright smile. She chuckled and poked my nose.
"It's true! I honestly don't know why people would think that you're scary, you're too handsome!", Navi said with a shrug, slamming her hands over her mouth in realization that she had just said too much. I blushed a deep red and felt hot.
"Navi! What the hell is that?", I said making her look away in surprise. I quickly dunked my head in the fountain and brought it back up, my hair soaked dripping wet. She whipped her head back around at the sound of a splash, only to find me dripping wet.
"Oh, sorry. I thought I saw something. My mistake!", I said with a shrug. Navi looked at me slyly.
"Did you just dunk your head in the fountain?", She asked me smugly. I spluttered and laughed.
"Pfft! What? No! Seriously? Wow! Haha! Uh, no. You must be a little too excited if you're seeing things! C'mon lets go.", I said as I floated away to East Castle town. Navi followed behind me and took note of the disgruntled people wh were getting rained upon from my dripping body. I shivered as the wind blew and I floated down to the ground. I noticed that I was near the doctor's house. I inwardly sighed as I remembered how that doctor was so stingy and rude.
"Seriously Austin, you're dripping wet. Knock off the theatrics. I have to admit though, you are pretty good.", Navi said crossing her arms. I chuckled and shook my head, spraying water everywhere. The walking townspeople glared at me and went along their business. I looked at Navi and stifled a laugh. Now both of us had become soaked. She looked at me, clearly unamused and began to swear under her breath. I laughed at her actions.
"Oh come on! Relax! Have some fun! Today's gonna be one of those rare days that we get to kick back and relax! Besides, you look very pretty when you're dripping wet.", I commented. Navi blushed and glared angrily at me.
"Oh HA HA. Very funny. C'mon, let's go see if we can borrow a towel from somebody in this store.", Navi said in an annoyed voice as she motioned to the store just around the corner and to our right. I nodded absentmindedly and opened the door. The clerk behind the counter sat up and smiled brightly.
"Hello there! Welcome to Rovas Rigging! We help with all your apparel needs!", A tan teen said as I stepped in. I closed the door and my eyes began to adjust to the new darkness rather quickly. The boys expression turned to one of fear as he saw me better.
"Oh gods! I-I'm sorry, we're, uh, we're closed right now!", The tan teen stuttered out panicking. I groaned and approached the counter. I scanned it and noticed a bell. I looked at the teen and sighed.
"Well, I suppose I'll just have sneak back here for a towel instead of trying to politely ask for one and... Wait. Did you say apparel? Please make me some clothes!", I begged of him.. He looked at me in great curiosity.
"... What? You mean... You're not going to rip apart my body and devour my soul?...", He asked slowly. My jaw hung down in confusion.
"Excuse me?... Okay, first; See these arms? Yeah, like I'm really gonna be able to rip somebody, twice my size mind you, apart. Second, I am going to be traveling up north up to Snowpeak, so I need appropriate gear for the weather.", I explained. The teen loosened up quite a bit and let out a breath of relief.
"I see. Alright then! This'll be a change of pace for me, so I'll give it a shot!", He said as he handed me a towel. I took it and smiled graciously before setting it down on the counter for Navi to use first. Navi fluttered down onto the counter and burrowed underneath the towel to dry off.
"So, was it the fangs?", I asked the teen. He tilted his head in confusion.
"I beg your pardon? What do you mean?", He asked me in response. I chuckled and bared my fangs.
"These. Were these what caused you to go into such a panic?", I asked him, clarifying what I meant. The boy shrugged, and Navi got out from underneath the towel, dryer than how much she once was, but not as dry as when she had woken up.
"Well, sort of. See the soldiers have been going around to all the shops, warning us of a foul demon with blood-red eyes and flaming orange hair.", He explained. I laughed with Navi as we heard that. I looked at Navi and smirked.
"How much you wanna' bet that it was the same group of cowards that I told off a the other day?", I asked her. She nodded in agreement.
"It probably was!", She said with a laugh. The teen looked at us strangely and I smacked my forehead in sudden realization.
"Bah! Where are my manners! I'm Austin and this is Navi! It's nice to meet you Mr. Rovas!", I said holding out my hand to shake. He looked at me nervously and took the hand slowly.
"Uh, please. Call me Zayril. Mr. Rovas makes me sound much older than I actually am.", He said with a chuckle. I looked at him curiously.
"Zayril? Really?... Why do I feel like I know that name? Ah, my mind must be playing tricks on me. It's very nice to meet you Zayril! Now, about my clothes. What would you suggest for going to Snowpeak?", I asked Zayril. He smiled and pulled a few boxes out from under the counter.
"Well, it all depends on what type of fur you'd like. Wolf, Fox, or Goat wool?", Zayril asked. I frowned and shrugged.
"I guess I'm gonna have to go with goat wool. See, a friend of mine is a wolf, and I just can't think of killing a poor, innocent fox for it's fur.", I said with a shrug. Navi nodded at my choice with a happy smile.
"Hm. Alright then, I'll have to take your measurements before I make the suit, and you should be able to get it by tomorrow morning. All in all, it should cost around 45 rupees. It's a little pricey, but I do the highest quality work that I can.", Zayril explained to me. I nodded in agreement and pulled out a purple rupee from the small wallet that Link had given me. During our little trip through the Arbiter's grounds, I had found another orange rupee and a few red and yellow ones lying around. All in all, my wallet was in need of being lighter.
"I believe this shall be more than enough to cover my expenses! Keep the change.", I said handing him the purple rupee. He looked at me in shock and and laughed.
"Wow! I didn't think you'd have the money right here! Alright then. Let me grab my measuring tape and we'll get started!", Zayril said as he walked behind the curtains to the left, serving as a little door.
"Alright! We're done with the measurements! You can put your arms down now.", Zayril said to me. I chuckled sheepishly.
"Well, uh, I don't think I can. Help?", I asked him. He chuckled and poked my arms with a pin, making them twitch and wake up from the discomfort.
"Thanks.", I said to him. He smirked.
"No problem! So I'll get started on you're snowsuit and that loose shirt and slacks you wanted. In the meantime, go look around town! I know of a very friendly girl who advertises Madam Fanadi's readings. Trust me, she's very lively, you won't miss her. Just tell her that Zayril says hello. Now go have some fun!", Zayril said ushering me out the door. I smiled and nodded.
"Alright, will do! Thanks again Zayril! I've really wanted to get some clothes for a while now! But, what's the girls name?", I asked him as I opened the door. Zayril smirked.
"Her name's Bindi. She seems to get quite a few readings right, however much she doubts herself.", Zayril explained. I nodded and Navi and I waved goodbye. We stepped out into the bustling streets of Castle Town and felt the sun beating down on us.
"Ah! Hiss! Sunlight! It buuurrrnsss!", I joked as I squinted. Navi giggled at my silliness while the passerby's actually thought it was hurting me. Navi fluttered around my head as I floated upwards into the sky, above the rooftops. I walked gingerly along the rooftop line, careful not to slip and fall. Unfortunately...
"Woah!", I yelped as I slipped and picked myself back up by floating up. Navi giggled at me and I rolled my eyes.
"Hey, come on now. It's not that funny.", I said with a smirk. Navi shrugged and moved ahead of me.
"I dunno, it made me laugh!", She said with a smug expression. I chuckled and stood silent for a moment. I closed my eyes and listened carefully. From a distance, I heard a girl yelling excitedly, something about the future and readings. Navi looked at me curiously.
"What's up?"
"Remember how Zayril was telling us how we'd be abvle to find that Bindi girl easily?", I asked her. She nodded.
"Yeah? What about it?", Navi asked me. I chuckled and smiled.
"Well I think I can hear her, and damn she's loud.", I swore with a chuckle as I floated forward, her voice growing noticeably louder. Navi looked at me, thoroughly impressed.
"Wow! I can hear her now. How could you hear her from so far away?", Navi asked me. I shrugged, honestly not knowing.
"Maybe there is a reason that I have these huge ears!", I said wiggling them and crossing my eyes. She giggled and rested on my now dry head. As we got closer to her voice, we began to understand what she was shouting above the hustle and bustle of the crowd.
"Come one! Come all! Only the great Madame Fanadi can tell you your future! Find your true love! Discover what riches may lie in store for you! All for a measly ten rupees! Compared to what the future may hold, ten rupees is nothing!", A tan girl with long blonde hair shouted to the crowd. She was covered in glittering jewelry and she wore a turquoise Indian-styled Saree. I floated down to the ground and walked up to her she spotted me and beamed brightly.
"Hello little one! Have you come hear to get your fortune?", She asked in a bubbly voice. I chuckled and shook my head.
"No, you see, Zayril-"
"No, no! I shall find out myself!", She said as she put her fingers against her temples. Her expression brightened.
"Ah-ha! You have come hear by request of Zayril? No, no, no... That can't be right. Ah! You must be here to collect Madame Fanadi's bar tab! That's it, yes!", She said certain of her reading. I shook my head.
"No, you had it right the first time. He mentioned that you doubted your own readings at times.", I stated with a smirk. Her expression dropped to a frown, then sprung up again with a bright smile.
"Well, I was correct, yes? That's all that matters! Now, let me see your palm!", She said asking for my hand. I looked at Navi skeptically. She shrugged and motioned my hand forward. I had always been skeptical of psychics, yet intrigued and curious at the same time. Bindi barely touched my hand when she jumped back in amazement. I tilted my head and moved forward slowly. She stared at me in awe.
"You... You are not of this world... Are you?... You have been brought here by the will of the golden gods themselves! You have... Spoken casually with them?", She said in confusion. My eyes widened and I began laugh uncontrollably. Navi fluttered off of my head in worry and Bindi stared at me in confusion.
"That really can't be right...", Bindi said slowly. I gulped down a deep breath of air and forced my self to calm down.
"You know, you seriously shouldn't doubt yourself so much. Because you're the most accurate prophet I've ever met! It's true! I'm shocked and can't help but laugh at the sheer possibility that you'd know that! But you're right!", I said in sheer amazement. Bindi blinked at me and scowled.
"It's not nice to play with someone's feeling like that!", She said in annoyance. I shook my head and stuck out my hand.
"I'm not lying! Here, do it again!", I said giddily. She looked over at the blue fairy hovering next to me. Navi nodded and Bindi sighed.
"Oh alright! Let me see...", She said giving in. She took my hand and her eyes went blank. She looked at me in surprise and began to laugh.
"I can't believe it! I was right! This is amazing!", She said beaming. I chuckled and nodded.
"Was there anything else you were going to say?", I asked her in interest. She beamed and nodded.
" Let me see...", She said looking at my hand, "Ah! My goodness... This mark is strange... This form... It isn't your own? Hmm... Oh! So handsome! You truly are a looker in any form you take aren't you?"
"What? No, no! I'm not that good looking! I probably look better in this form anyway...", I said chuckling, a small blush on my cheeks. Bindi giggled and Navi rolled her eyes in slight annoyance.
"Oh come now! You're much too hard on yourself! Now, as I was... Hmm... My, my, my! So you're assisting a blue-eyed beast? And a green-garbed hero! Why aren't you the busy one? Oh my...", She said slowly as she read my palm. Navi tilted her head curiously.
"What? What's wrong?", I asked nervously. She frowned.
"When the end nears, both you and the hero shall suffer a terrible tragedy... I'm so sorry...", She said as she pulled me into a hug. My face grew to one of worry, but I simply hugged back awkwardly. She let go and smiled somberly.
"On a somewhat lighter note, you will succeed in purifying the confused one. May his torn heart be fixed and may he be put at ease.", She said as she pushed me in the direction away from the shop.
"Just remember this Austin, Navi," She said as she addressed the two of us, "Never give in to the dark offers. The dark one is always watching... Always waiting... But for now, be happy. Enjoy your lives, for you will need happy memories to help you through the darker days to come."
She waved us goodbye and we floated away quietly. Navi was the first to break the silence.
"So what do you think she meant when she said that you and Link would suffer a tragedy?", She asked slowly. I shrugged. To me, it sounded like she was talking about Midna "Dying", but if she did, why did she only mention me and Link? It didn't make any sense to me.
"I dunno. I guess we'll find out when the time comes.", I muttered. Navi nodded and nested in my hair.
"Any idea as to what she meant by:' You will succeed in purifying the confused one'?", Navi asked me. I chuckled and smirked.
"Oh, I have a theory, that I'll try to put into action when the time comes!", I said floating down another alley. By now, the people passing by were simply ignoring me, and I was doing the same. I heard a large mass of cats to my right and I smiled. I needed something to get my mind of off prophecies of dark days to come. I floated over to the cats and smiled.
"Hi there! What're you guys doing?", I asked them. They looked at me politely.
'We're waiting for our boss to get out of Jovani's house. In the meantime, we're keeping this girl company.', A red striped cat replied in the tongue of animals. I looked up at the girl, not even realizing that she had been there. I was a little startled, by the fact that she so closely resembled a boy. She looked at me, and I looked back at her silently. I looked down at the cat in confusion.
"That's a girl? I thought it was a boy.", I stated in a puzzled expression. Finally she cleared her throat and glared at me, clearly pissed off by my comment.
"Don't even think about it.", She said coldly. I looked at her in confusion.
"Umm... Dare I ask?... But, what are you talking about?", I said slowly, intimidated by this young girls harsh exterior. She rolled her eyes and looked at Navi.
"Hmm... Strange... Don't worry little fairy! I'll hold him off long enough for you to escape!", She said pulling out a knife. I jumped back in surprise and held up my arms.
"Careful! You might cut me with that thing!", I said nervously. She ushered a white fluffy cat behind her.
"That's the idea weirdo.", She said in a deadly cold tone. I swallowed nervously and Navi fluttered in front of the knife calmly.
"I'd rather you not harm my friend here. And as far as I'm concerned, you'll have to go through me to get to him.", Navi said to the young girl. She looked taken aback by Navi's statement.
"What?... You and him are friends? I guess he's not the only weirdo here.", She said in slight annoyance. I stuck my tongue out at her.
"Yeah? Well you're the one waving the knife around! I just came here to talk to the cats, and relax!", I explained. Her eyes furrowed in confusion and she put the knife away.
"You mean, you can talk to animals?", She asked in interest. I shrugged and nodded.
"Well, yeah. This guy right here told me about how all the cats here are just waiting for their boss to leave the house, and decided to keep you company. And I have a question, why are you here?", I asked curiously. She sighed and pulled her hair back out of her face.
"Well, I work in the castle, and I was out running an errand for my boss, when that barrier appeared, therefore blocking any and all entrance to the castle.", She explained, "You wouldn't happen to be responsible for that, would you? The soldiers said that you're probably to blame..."
"Seriously? Again with the smearing? Those guys are cowards, and hold a grudge against me, all because I made one of them piss himself in fear." I explained. Navi giggled at the memory. I sighed and continued.
"No, I'm not to blame for the current condition of the Castle, it being trapped and whatnot. And trust me, you wouldn't have wanted to get trapped inside there anyway. There's a dark man in there, who made that thing.", I said as I floated upwards to look at the barrier. She tilted her head slightly.
"Who did this? And how do you know?", She asked me. Navi was also a little curious as to how I knew. I looked down and chuckled as I landed softly on the ground.
"The Dark Lord Dragmire. Don't ask me how I know. Besides, you probably wouldn't believe me even if I told you.", I explained as I shook my head. She cocked her head to the side and smirked.
"Oh yeah? Try me!", She said in a cocky voice. I looked at her and chuckled.
"Well, alright. If must know. I've been sent by the three golden goddesses to assist the Hero to return peace to the land of Hyrule!", I said with a proud smile. Navi chuckled and shrugged. It was true after all. The girl stared at me with a blank expression.
"What? I asked how you knew who caused that barrier thing there. Not what makes you a loony.", She said in annoyance. I puffed out my lip in frustration.
"Jeez! You're worse than Midna sometimes! I'm just telling you how I knew...", I said with a pout earning a chuckle from the girl.
"Looks like the soldiers were wrong about you. You're just a big softy!", She said lightly punching my arm. I rubbed it and chuckled.
"Say, I never got your name. I'm Austin!", I said offering a hand. The girl looked at it then shook it. Navi fluttered up and offered her own hand.
"And I'm Navi!", She said in a bubbly voice. The girl shook Navi's hand with her finger and smiled politely.
"Hello Navi! My name is Adelle.", She said with a small smile as she shook Navi's hand with her pinky. Navi smiled back and fluttered onto my head. I smiled at Adelle.
"You know, you seem like a really nice person! Maybe we could hang out sometime?", I suggested. Navi and Adelle tilted their heads in confusion.
"Hang out? What's that supposed to mean?", Adelle asked in confusion. I mentally slapped myself at forgetting how I was in Hyrule, and they didn't have slang.
"Oh well, that's just a way of asking if you would like to spend time with somebody.", I explained. Adelle laughed loudly and raised her eyebrow.
"Well I'm flattered Toothey, but I'm not into Imps.", She said with a smirk. I frowned and smacked my forehead.
"Listen, I meant as a friend, not that way. Besides, you're not my type!", I said crossing my arms. Adelle and Navi leaned forward with interest.
"Oh? Then what is your type, hmm? I'm dying to find out!", She said with an sinister smile. I blushed and cleared my throat.
"T-that's my secret... I only have one person in my sights...", I muttered in embarrassment. Adelle chuckled and leaned back.
"Well, I think I've caused enough damage for one day! See you two around you crazy kids! Remember not to get too crazy! I don't think you'd want a kid on your hands!", She said as she began to walk away. I blushed at her comment and tried to look at Navi. She was out of my eyesight, on top of me. Little did I know, she was a bright red light at that very moment. I coughed and sat down. The white fluffy cat came up to me and smiled a little.
"I know you. You're the Imp and fairy from my master's bar. Just what are you two doing here?", She asked us. I looked at her and smiled.
"We're just relaxing for the day! Looking around and having fun!", I explained. The cat seemed to understand.
"My name's Louise. If you ever need some help while your buddy Link is in his wolf form, feel free to get me for help.", She said as she began to walk away. I smiled and nodded.
"Sure thing Louise! Bye!", I said as she turned around. She looked at me and seemed to smile.
"Your friend seems to look a little sleepy. You might want to take care of that. Bye.", She said waving with her tail. I tilted my head in confusion and yelped in surprise when Navi fell off my head.
"AUGH! NAVI? Oh my god! Navi! What's wrong?", I asked shaking her lightly, a bit of foam frothing from her mouth. I brought her up to my ear and listened for a heartbeat. I sighed in relief as I heard one.
"At least you're alive, and ok... For the most part...", I said putting her inside my mess of hair, trying to make sure that she'd stay put. I floated up out of the small yard with all the cats playing with a small ball, and headed over to the street vendors.
"I wonder what they have there...", I mumbled aloud. The happy music played from the Castle Town square, and I smiled. The music was played by real instruments here, and sounded even better. I wandered past stall after stall, seeing bread, meat, produce, and even a flower stall. This single stall caught my interest.
'I wonder what kind of flowers Navi likes?', I pondered to myself as I looked over the flowers. The owner of the stall looked at me nervously.
"C-can I help you?", She asked, wanting me to leave. I looked at her and smiled.
"I'm just looking for some nice flowers. Do you have any suggestions?", I asked her. The flower girl looked me over nervously.
"You're not going to kill me, a-are you?", She asked. I stared at her in frustration.
"Guards told you that?", I asked. She nodded and I groaned.
"No, I'm not gonna kill anyone innocent, but those guards are really tempting me to kill them. I'm sick of the lies they're spreading about me.", I said in frustration. She looked at me curiously.
"S-so, you're harmless?", She asked. I shook my head.
"No, not harmless, just peaceful. I can defend myself and others if necessary. Now! About the flowers; See, there's this girl...", I started to say as I blushed. The flower-girl laughed.
"Really? Alright, say no more. I suppose since you are in love...", She said pulling a few flowers from the arrangement. I bowed in thanks and pulled out a few Rupees.
"Here you go! That'll be five Rupees!", She said politely. I beamed a smile of gratitude.
"Here's ten! Thank you so much!", I said as I floated off with the small bouquet in hand.
'I should probably drop these off at the bar so they're a surprise for Navi.', I thought as I floated above the rooftops, bouquet sending off wonderful smells. I smiled at the sweet smells and imagined Navi receiving the bundle of flowers. I wondered a moment why I had even decided to get flowers. It almost felt like... Like someone else was controlling me... It probably wasn't Zant or Ganon, so I was covered there. That just left the Trio. And it was probably Din. I felt embarrassed that she was pushing me in a way that I was already moving down myself. Unless, she wasn't controlling me, and I just bought them in a spur of the moment. Gah! These feelings make me so confused sometimes.
"It's not like this'll end up the same…", I sighed in frustration. I opened the door to Telma's bar. Telma looked at me and frowned.
"Ah well honey. You seem a little upset. What's wrong?" She asked in curiosity. I chuckled and sighed, setting down the bouquet of flowers on the bar.
"Nothing more than the guards spreading rumors about me. I dunno why, but I felt like surprising Navi with flowers when we got back, and I took the opportunity to buy some while she was asleep. So I'm hoping that you could put these in some water till I get back? It's the afternoon now, so I'm guessing Link'll be back later, and we'll come back around the time he does.", I said and asked of her. She smiled and nodded.
"I think it's a lovely idea hon. Now you go have fun, meet people and make friends, okay?", She said. I laughed and nodded.
"Sure thing mom. See you later!", I joked as I floated out the door. Telma smiled and poured water into a vase for the flowers before putting the flowers in.
"I wonder when they'll just tell each other?...", Telma wondered aloud.
Navi: Oh my... Flowers? For me? I'm flattered! *Blushes and smiles bashfully*
Midna: *Hits Link* Why don't you get me flowers? HMM?
Link: I thought you liked fish! (-Totally clueless)
