Video - Slightly forward dated to the regains/her bonus collar checkup (time to panic the ancestor!)

I went for a collar checkup...

[And she's dressed in a really regal dress now. Like Zelda's.]

I think they messed up! My collar was yellow now it's the same color as Zelda's collar!

Flat | Top-Level Comments Only

What?

[Oh no. No no no no no last time there were collar color changes Minami went crazy and starting killing people and nononono--]

Tetra, where are you?

[That... sounded more like a panicked demand than a question, really.]

[I DIDN'T DO IT]

Up by the dorms... Why?

I'm on my way.

[Wow, how's that for an explanation. She's so quick to leave she even forgets to turn off her end of the feed! And when she gets there (within minutes, by the way), she grabs Tetra by the shoulders, kneeling to peer anxiously at her collar.]

Goddesses above... Tetra, tell me how you're feeling.

[sdfjhasdjgklhagafjd-- KIND OF AFRAID THANKS ZELDA.]

I'm all right. Is something wrong with the different color?

[SHE IS KIND OF NEW TO THIS MOTHERING THING OKAY GIVE HER A BREAK.]

... I do not know.

[Trying. To rein in panic.]

Are you feeling lightheaded at all? Or heavy and sluggish?

[PRACTICE BETTER.]

None of 'em. I feel th'same as always.

[OH OKAY SHE'LL JUST DO THAT BETWEEN GETTING EXPERIMENTED ON, TRAINING, AND FELLOWSHIPPING.]

Hm. [She sighs, releasing some of that anxiety, though she's still concerned.] Forgive me, the last time I heard someone's collar color had changed, the results were... well, if you are not feeling any of those symptoms, then I suppose there is nothing to fear in that regard.

... It is strange, though. Why would they change it all of a sudden?

[OKAY THAT WORKS. ~~Trollface.~~]

Yeah, I'm th'same as ever.

[Reaching to scratch her head as she thinks, probably giving Zelda a good look at her hand and that familiar gold triangle on the back of it.]

[Yeaaah, she'll be grabbing that hand now, examining the back of it.]

... Tetra, have you always had this?

Huh?

[Looking at her hand and shrugging.]

Not for a awhile. King Daphnes made a wish on the Triforce and we all lost 'em. It was there when I got up this mornin' though.

Only this morning?

[Starting to put the dots together...]

And then you were called in for a collar check, is that right?

That's right.

[And not putting the dots together at all.]

[If only she could have been so blissfully unaware when Wisdom chose her. She takes Tetra's hand in her own, standing and intending to lead her descendent to her room.]

Come with me. I believe I might have an idea as to why they changed your collar suddenly.

[And then, more quietly:]

Tell me what you know of the Triforce of Wisdom.

Zelda? You know the Princess?

Oh yeah, she's my ancestor! She was the last princess Zelda, I'm the one from about two hundred years in her future.

[Interesting.] And what of your line between her and you?

I dunno much about the family between the flooding of Hyrule and now. There was King Daphnes and my mom then me. Those are the only people from the bloodline that I know about.

Those of Hyrule remind me of the Sidhe. Perhaps your people are as long-lived. If that is the case, there may not be many generations between yourself and Her Highness.

Shall I also call you princess, young Zelda?

Maybe! That'd be pretty cool, actually.

Nah, jus' call me Tetra! I like that name a lot better'n Zelda.

As you wish, Your Young Highness. [There's a little teasing in Saber's tone.]

[fdajkhfgjahfkjahg]

J-just Tetra's okay! Being a princess is still kinda weird.

My apologies, Lady Tetra, but I am a knight. I must honor all royalty.

[She's also a king, which is why she teases, but that's beside the point.]

How about jus' 'captain' then? I've been a pirate more'n a princess anyway.

I will try. [Which means she will use the princess card again some day.]

I am Saber. Zelda and I share a residence here.

[And Tetra won't appreciate it any more than now. At least she's not getting called Zelda at every turn.]

Oh! So yer one'a her roommates! Nice t'meet ya!
