LINK。 † HERO OF TIME ([personal profile] ocariness) wrote in [community profile] towerofanimus2012-03-04 07:47 am

[o4] ‸^‸ Fourth Song.

Characters: AU!OoT Link ([personal profile] ocariness) and whomever finds her.
Setting: Floor 11 (Daytime). Set immediately after this, which is the day after the events of Hitori Kakurenbo.
Format: Action probably I'm terrible with prose lately?
Summary: Link now thinks that her ancestor hates her. Tired and emotionally past breaking point, she found somewhere (or so she thought) to be alone and sob. She really needs a hug.
Warnings: TOWER OF SADIMUS/ANIMANGST and tl;dr. But uh, other than that? None yet!

[ Everything around her was ripped away in a whirlwind of green light and the wooshing sound of air as Link returned to the warp point she'd set on the meadow floor.

It's hard, but she manages to pick herself up and not break down there, as luckily the warp point was next to the exit, as always. She gets up, numb, expression pained, and begins slowly making her way back to her room. By the time she returns to the meadow floor, she has since fixed her clothing, rebound herself, and gotten a shower.

... There was no evidence the person sitting next to the lakeside is a girl at all. Link had seen to that not being noticed.

She might be hard to spot, wearing a blue tunic instead of her usual green one and not bothering with having her hat on, but you'll spot her sitting on a bank, head pulled to her knees. There's the sounds of quiet sobbing every so often.

She shouldn't be allowed to carry the Master Sword, the name of Link, or anything else. She simply didn't deserve any of it; she had been forced to age and she never wanted it. She'd experienced loss, and the Tower was pushing her past even her limits of bottling things inside.

Something had to give. Perhaps it was her. Perhaps her ancestor deserved this sword more than she. Or the small Hero of Winds. Why was it that he, younger than when she'd started, was not forced to age like she had been? Was she never worthy to begin with? Did they simply "make do" with her? Was she a replacement "Hero"? Link didn't know.

What she did know was that she wished she could go home. Zelda deserved better than her. ]

[He was scared of her being afraid of him. He was scared she would never forgive him. He was scared of his own family hating him.

So when the other threw herself at him sobbing, he found himself crying as well.

He wraps his arms around her and holds her close, not caring about the fact that she's soaking wet.]

[And Zelda just sits here on the shore nearby, waiting patiently.

She should... really apologize for overreacting, but she also shouldn't ruin this moment, yeah?]
theherourherocouldbelike: (thanks...)

[He keeps a hold onto the other, stroking her hair slightly. He had stopped crying himself but his eyes were still a bit red and watery. He didn't know just how badly he had hurt the other, he felt absolutely terrible.

He had also decided, that from this point on, he was going to protect and take care of the other Link. He would make sure no one else hurt her like he had himself, because she's family and he does not want to see her upset or harmed.]

[A-ahaha, yeaaah, she'll be attempting to straighten her diadem and ring out her hair now.]

Clothes will dry. I am simply glad things have worked out.

[And then, very, very awkwardly, she turns to the older Link.]

... And... I am sorry as well. For overreacting. I was... irrational, and by behavior was unbecoming. My apologies.
theherourherocouldbelike: (Hi!)

[personal profile] theherourherocouldbelike 2012-03-05 07:27 pm (UTC)(link)
[He ruffles the others hair.]

I do not mind getting my clothes wet, they'll dry.

[He then smiles at Zelda.]

It's alright, it's just a bruise.
sageprincess: (Radiant elegance)

[personal profile] sageprincess 2012-03-06 06:36 pm (UTC)(link)
All the same... if there is any way I may make it up to you, I will gladly do so.

[Fixing pauldrons GODDESSES WHY ARE HER CLOTHES SO COMPLICATED.]

Not at all. Do not apologize.

[Yep, throwing your words from earlier back at you, Link.]
theherourherocouldbelike: (thanks...)

[personal profile] theherourherocouldbelike 2012-03-06 06:42 pm (UTC)(link)
[He shakes his head.]

I do not need anything to be made up to me, I am just happy that I was able to make amends with the both of you. I would not want our relationships to change, you are both very dear friends.

[He then smiles at Link.]

Families get in fights sometimes, but they will always make up. Just know that you can trust me with anything and I will always be here for you.

[Don't mind her, she's just... d'aww-ing internally.]

Hm? Harp...?

[She follows Link's gaze, having not noticed any harp while oh-so gracefully taking an unplanned swim, and... what.]

... Where did you get that?

[By the looks of it, she's definitely seen it before.]

[He tilts his head and picks it up.]

It was given to me in a desperate time by my Zelda. I don't know much about it, only that it is a divine instrument that can be used to open spiritual gates and it was once Goddess Hylia's, long ago.

[The glance is returned, and the message comes through loud and clear. Slowly, she looks back to the ancient hero, a bit of a bemused expression upon her face.]

I... have one just like it.
theherourherocouldbelike: (What's that?)

[personal profile] theherourherocouldbelike 2012-03-08 10:29 pm (UTC)(link)
[He stares at it for a moment.]

...I do not think it is a coincidence that you do.

[... oh gosh why so cute.

Ahaha, somehow, she doesn't think that's quite it, but like hell is she doing anything that could possibly ruin Link's recovered mood. She gives her an awkward sort of smile.]


Perhaps. To be honest, I was never told where the harp had come from or what it was meant for. Only that it was a precious treasure of the Royal Family.
theherourherocouldbelike: (what did you say)

[personal profile] theherourherocouldbelike 2012-03-09 04:55 pm (UTC)(link)
Perhaps you really are my Zelda's descendent then, and the harp was passed down through the generations. You did say the females in your family were named Zelda, did you not?
sageprincess: (Pleasant relaxation)

[personal profile] sageprincess 2012-03-10 03:32 pm (UTC)(link)
Yes, that is correct.

[Ignore the slight bit of pink that's dusting her cheeks at the Hero of Time's comment. It's entirely in your imagination.]

Aha... Surely, you are exaggerating. But, yes, that does sound like a nice idea.
theherourherocouldbelike: (Hi!)

[personal profile] theherourherocouldbelike 2012-03-10 03:36 pm (UTC)(link)
[He laughs a little.]

I do not doubt that she is better then me, I am still fairly new at playing it. But I would not mind playing with the both of you.

[LINK STOP IT YOU ARE EMBARRASSING HER.]

I am certain he is talented, despite being new to the instrument.

[The Links had to get their musical affinity from somewhere, right?]

I admit I have never been conducted before. That would be an interesting experience, certainly.
theherourherocouldbelike: (Heeeeeee)

[personal profile] theherourherocouldbelike 2012-03-10 04:07 pm (UTC)(link)
[He nods.]

I think that would be very fun.
