[004 ∆ egoselfish]
Characters: MM!Link ("Forest") and YOU
Setting: [01] Floor 10 (aquarium), [02] Floor 28 (music room), [03] Floor 22 (art room), [04] Floor 11 (locked to Majora/
giveschase)
Format: I'll start in action, but I'll match you
Summary:
[01] Link is attempting to relieve some stress by swimming as a Zora again.
[02.1] While passing by the music room, you hear a new instrument. Investigate, y/n?
[02.2] In this case, Link is the one who hears something different coming from the music room and decides to see what it is you're up to.
[03] Link is baffled by some paintings.
[04] Link has found a strange mask, and he tries it on... not knowing just what he's about to get himself into. Replies will mostly come from
lackspurpose.
Warnings: n/a for now
[ 01 ; aquarium ]
[There is just... something about being a Zora. To be able to move so quickly, so effortlessly... At first, Link just used the mask's abilities for his quests. But the ghost of Mikau whispered in the back of his mind, urging him to let go, to relax, to be a Zora instead of a boy pretending to be one. Hesitantly, he did, once. And it was unlike anything he'd ever felt before. He'd never experienced freedom, not like this. The only thing that came close was riding Epona, feeling her move powerfully under him, the wind in his hair, the unity of horse and rider as they barreled along the circular track. But this... This, is just him.
Link can be found as a blur darting throughout the water, leaping across the gaps between the columns without stopping. If you want his attention, you're probably going to have to yell or do something especially eye-catching.]
[ 02 ; music room ]
( 2.1 )
[There is a song playing on the floor 28, and while it starts off and features a solid string section, as per usual of the music room, a new woodwind voice joins the orchestra. If you look further into this matter, you'll find a boy sitting amongst the instruments, playing a small tan potato ocarina with his eyes closed.
He doesn't seem to notice you. What do?]
( 2.2 )
[Link was originally just passing through, but something caught his attention on the staircase on floor 28. At first, he can't quite tell what it is, and his curiousity gets the better of him. He can't help but to come off the staircase and take a look.
So what is it that you're doing to attract so much attention?]
[ 03 ; art room ]
[Whether you're just climbing up the staircase or turning a corner in the art room, this is the sight that awaits you. The boy in green tilts his head one way, stays there for a while, and then tilts his head the other way. Finally, he says aloud to himself,]
I don't get it.
[ 04 ; floor 11 ; for
giveschase only! ]
[Last month, Link found a mask in the Tower while searching for the stuff that was stolen from him. It was quiet and didn't speak of magic when he held it, so he simply stowed it away to investigate later. He still had the other masks to find, after all. But after that, he forgot about it. But once the month changed, he could suddenly feel its magic through his pack. He didn't think anything of it immediately, because there have been other things to focus on -- the return of everyone else in the Tower, namely -- but the longer he's ignored it, the louder it has gotten. Today, he's finally decided to sit down and check it out. What is it that made this mask so "vocal" all of a sudden?
He draws it out of his bag. The mask is of a man's face, complete with the Hylian ears. There was a blue marking on his forehead and two red markings under both of the mask's empty eyes. His hair is white with long parted bangs, just like Link's. Now that he's holding it, the mask seems to have quieted down a little, almost as if it is saying finally.]
Who are you...? [Link murmurs to the mask, as if expecting an answer. When he doesn't get one, he hesitates, and then raises the mask to his face.
And then, everything changes.]

1: I am so very very sorry
Watch out for that hook, or else it's going to get a lot less relaxing for everyone here.]
never apologize
Oh, you mean the hook that's catching hold of MM's skirt as he's swimming by?
Oh, you mean the hook that still has MM's skirt after he's swam past?
...
Wait, something feels weird.
As far as Forest is concerned, one minute, he's clothed, and the next, he isn't. He has no idea what happened. He stops sharply in the water in sheer surprise, spinning around to see behind him, wondering where his clothes went --
And then his Zora face turns several bright colors. Yeah, sure, it's not like anything's showing because of Zora anatomy, but. But. butbutbutbut it's the principle of the thing!!
(MM also thinks that TP is actually SS. Haha... ha...)]
no subject
>You got a......um......a uh....what is that? Oh well, at least it's out of the-
And then he turns and sees the Zora staring at him, putting 2 and 2 together really quick.]
Ah! Sorry about that, sir! [He fumbles with whatever he caught and holds it out out...before realizing that Zoras don't wear clothes.
Also, this fisherman's voice sounded nothing like SS, oops.]
no subject
He darts back over there, reaching out of the water to snatch his clothes so he could put it back on ASAP. Because. OH. GOD.
He doesn't immediately respond because he's a little. Preoccupied.]
no subject
Like for real, they're as nude as the day they were born...er...hatched? Hatched. They don't need clothes, so...weird. It's almost as if he's acting...
...like a human.]
Aha, sorry again.
no subject
It... It's okay, Sky...
no subject
...What d'ya mean "Sky"?
[Wrong name, lil' bro.]
no subject
Link double-takes. Now that he can get a better look... There's no way this is Sky. The hair color is wrong, the shade of green is wrong...]
... sorry. I thought you were someone else.
no subject
The "Zora" is getting a pretty scrutinizing look right now.]
Is he another one of the, uh..."Links"?
no subject
[A pause. Then... Oh. Oops. He's still wearing Mikau's mask. Link scratches the back of his head awkwardly.] Oh. I'm Link, too. Here...
[Then, he removes the mask.]
no subject
Wow.
Warn a guy first, that was really weird to watch and also why are you ten???]
Ah, um... [He...probably needs a minute.]
no subject
... Sorry.
no subject
[That looked painful, ow...]
no subject
Yes, I'm fine. It's something I got used to a long time ago.
no subject
Like even he's not entirely used to the Wolf Thing and he's been doing that a lot before he got here...
But never mind that.]
Here, let's just, uh, get out of the water, alright?
[Not because he'd catch a cold or anything, but this doesn't seem like the greatest place to talk...]
no subject
blink. blink.] Okay. Where do you want to go?
no subject
I dunno, I just...felt like walking. C'mon.
[He stands, taking his fishing pole and putting it...whereever the hell a Link puts things when they're done with them.
We just don't know.]
no subject
MM shrugs and says again,] Okay.
[He doesn't really know what to say. Hmm. Well...]
What era are you from? I'm the Hero of Time. One of them, anyway. The other one is bigger...
