Yo.

[Lancer tosses her a quick greeting.]

Maybe you should relax and let the kid try what she wants. Who knows? You might like it.

Or she might feel hassled and bothered and may not need any of this!

hey, if you say she doesn't want it then fine
but don't act like she doesn't need love
who knows
maybe she'll find the right guy

[ Okay now that they're not in barking guard dog mode Link leaves a minute to remember how to properly type like they'd learned. ]

... Love is fine and all but there are a lot more important things than that.

While I agree, I just think this is a terrible idea and is only putting more weight on her shoulders. Beside that, there are plenty of people who love her dearly. The idea she doesn't have people who love her is absurd. It makes me frown. :(

[ Wrong kind of love, Link. ]

don't doubt she has them
after all why else would tetra be asking over the network
but even if she's surrounded by that kind of love
and even if that kind of love is unlimited
sometimes it's not enough.

[He knows. Diarmuid is like that. No matter how much Cu Chulainn loves him, it's not the type of love that he craves.]

the sort of love that she might need is a special type
the sort that's shared between a man and a woman
or a man and a man or a woman and a woman if you swing that way
romantic love
and sometimes the ones who are least likely to get it
or least likely to let someone know they want it
the ones who get caught up in their duties
like princesses and kings and knights
they need that kind of love the most

... I thought only a man and a woman could marry?

... anyway

You sound like you speak from experience.
But I just don't want to see her hurt by people.
People can be really mean.
Or really uncaring.
Or use her.
I promised I'd protect her and i meant it and i don't want to see her worrying about something else

... And if Ganondorf saw this I know there'd just be more pain for her to deal with and she doesn't need it right now.

most of the time
but there's special cases

[After all, Diarmuid had loved him that way.]

the guy i'm thinking of won't do any of those things
he's too noble for that
and i promised to do the same thing for him that you're doing for zelda
i just think they could get to love each other
wouldn't it be nice for all of us if they did?

and i'll help you fight Piggydorf if he ever comes knocking

...
I'm just not sure now's the best time for this
Although I... find it a bit amusing you just called the King of Evil "piggydorf".
It would be nice if she earnestly did have someone that way...
But I also know it isn't possible to force things.

I don't know. If you can promise she won't be hurt I might agree to it, but I want to be able to make sure this won't come back to haunt us.

i promise
i swear on my name as a hero that zelda won't be hurt
or should i swear it as one hero to another?

... Hah.
... Maybe.
I just want her protected.
Maybe later.

Who is the person you want to set her up with?

his name is Diarmuid Ua Duibhne
he's a hero from the same country as me
and he's my older brother
he's pretty much an ideal knight
handsome, courteous, gentle, and honorable
and he used to be married to a princess so i think he'd know how to treat one
with the proper respect

[ LONGEST. OF PAUSES. IN REPLYING. ]

... If he is a knight I suppose it is acceptable, then.

... I am sure this will make Tetra happy, at any rate.

got a good day for it?
can you ask zelda when she's free?

I can ask her yes

... It might take some convincing but I will figure something out and come back to you. I will have to see what she is doing. How long in advance do you need to prepare, do you think?

oh a week or two i guess
depends on how long it takes for me to convince my brother
and if he's doing good
sometimes...
it's like life wants to torture him
he suffers more than he should

... Ah, then he is a lot like Zelda.

Life has not been kind to her. She deserves so much better than she gets. I can understand why you want to make his life better. I am sure we can work something out, though Zelda is the type to insist she is not worth it or that it's petty or childish.

... I... know it is not.

that sounds like something he would say
he always thinks that he doesn't deserve the love people give him
or that he's not as good of a knight as he is
and he always calls his own feelings silly
and i know it not the way he says it is

so i guess at least they'd understand each other

it's up to heroes like us to protect them, though
right?
fight for them so they won't suffer anymore?

[Fight for him, hug and comfort him, push his own negative feelings into the back of his mind so he can stand strong for Diarmuid...Lancer would do anything for his brother.]

[He cocks his head.]

Don't you? This ain't the busiest place in all the worlds either.

Perhaps when you are not kept busy working to find a way out of it, it is not.

...How is that going, by the way?

... Slow. When there is significant progress, you will know it.

[She has to lie. She can't say anything telling over the network.]

...Ah. Well, at least there's progress.

Indeed.

[And that's all she ~~can~~ has to say on the matter.]

[He nods.]

Good luck.
