Characters: Zelda and you!

Summary: The Princess of Hyrule going about her days while trying not to freeze to death.
Warning: Sexual confusion? None yet.


Floor 3 or 19
[The libraries might as well have become a second home for Zelda with all the time she has spent there recently. Ever since Ruana (and to a lesser extent, Dax) took to the network, she has been pouring over book after book, network post after network post, trying to make sense of the things she said. Of course, any success is limited at best, and for the most part, the only fruit of her labor thus far has been a stack of notes with more questions than answers contained within.

Still, the search gives her focus and drive - things she had been terribly lacking in since... the end of June, really. And perhaps that's the most valuable thing Ruana gave her that day - not information, but a will to do more than merely endure.

In any case, if you're looking for one long-eared princess, you are most likely to find her here, surrounded by her books and notes.]


Floor 25 (For [personal profile] bow_of_the_galadhrim and maybe friends?)
[Of course, that is not to say she does nothing else with her time. Sometime before the chaos of October and everything else, Legolas said the elven swords he was having crafted for her were ready, and they could begin training. Sure, it's cold now and getting colder, but it's peaceful for the moment (well, for some definition of peaceful), and she needs to learn eventually.

So, looking more like a pirate than a princess in Tetra's mother's (her descendant's?) long coat and her hair tied up in a ribbon, she waits on the meadow floor for the Prince of Mirkwood. At least there's no snow on this floor.]


Floor 14
[And sometimes even she needs a break, though loathe she is to admit it. She doesn't frequent the media floor often - even after nearly a year's time in the Tower, most of the technology there is beyond her. But she does know how one piece of electronic machinery works (though don't ask her what it's called), thanks to a girl who's long since vanished from the tower walls. And it's that piece of machinery that's currently serenading her with the sounds of a certain British classic rock band as she curls up on a couch nearby, wrapped in the fluffy comforter she got as a "prize" for participating in Halloween's "game".

Pass by at just the right moment, and she might even appear to be asleep. Even back in Hyrule, music was always there to provide a temporary escape from life's hardships, and it's so easy to get lost in it...]


Floor 32
[And sometimes, given the high levels of stress inherent to the situation, it is necessary to take "taking a break" a little further.

Look up into the trees on the forest floor, and you might see a blur of blue and grey hopping from branch to branch, disturbing and sprinkling the snow that's accumulated there in its wake.

Investigate?]

[Blue Streak? Now that's a first. The "streak" stills for a moment after Haken calls out, then bounds back towards him before stopping nearby. The figure leans against the trunk of the tree it's in, looking at him with a slightly curious expression.

You called?]

[And hello, figure of indeterminate sex! He tips his hat to Sheik, his typical greeting.]

Was wondering what exactly that blur out of the corner of my eye was. Glad it's not the tower messing with me. Hopefully.

[A tilt of the head, and then the figure is lifting up a piece of the cloth surrounding their neck and lower face, revealing the glint of an indigo collar for a brief moment.]

No, simply a wanderer getting some exercise.

[Not a true lie.]

[Haken smiles at the sight of the collar.]

A little cold, but gotta say, the scenery's nice. Partially why I came out here myself. That, and it reminds me of someone. Usually.

The water may be frozen, but its tendency to inspire reflection remains the same.

[Wow, this guy is kinda flowery, isn't he.]

What is it you wish to be reminded of, might I ask?
nightfowl: (Any damsel that's in distress)

[personal profile] nightfowl 2012-12-15 12:43 pm (UTC)(link)
[Woah. That was pretty deep.]

Pretty poetic, I'd say. Hit the nail right on the head there.

A lovely princess from back home. The weather reminds me of her dress and subsequently her dynamite figure popping out of it.
[Don't mind him. He can be a perv.]
That, and she'd probably enjoy the adventure, as bad as it can be here at times. Got her first taste of the world outside her kingdom traveling with me.

[... A woman's figure isn't exactly what was expected, but okay then. Sheik will just ignore that little comment, and focus on what came after.]

It would seem to be a common trend across the worlds, princesses finding adventure they never would have expected otherwise. At least, so I have heard during my time here.

[Well. Maybe not heard, exactly, but...]

I assume she enjoyed seeing the world, by the way you say she likes adventure.
nightfowl: (with artemis from the start of this)

[Haken gives a hearty laugh there.] For all that this place does to people, it's not short of good company. I enjoy the company of princesses and the guys and gals that usually accompany them on whatever adventure they end up finding.

[and then he gets serious for a bit, even a little...sad?]

Loved it so much she was about to go the way of her mother and give up her life to seal a bunch of nasties away. Reckon this is gonna sound selfish, but really, I wasn't going to let that happen. Broke my heart that she was only 18 and her life was just about to end there, only getting a small taste of the world.
[and then, a smile came over his face.]
There was another solution, a small glimmer of hope. Odds Small enough that any sane gambling man would fold. But I've never minded betting on long odds. Of course I'm going to save the world and get the girl, too. That's just how I roll, pardner. Though honestly, it was more for the latter than the former.

Knew she was worth it, pardner.

Besides, sealing the nasties away wouldn't take care of them. They'd eventually find their way out.
