[Tetra's sitting at a terminal, playing a few notes on her recently acquired Spirit Flute before looking at the screen.]

So, um... It's a Ruana month. And she can be pretty awful sometimes.

[A lot of the time but Tetra's not saying that where Ruana, Jason or Riki could hear.]

There's really no way to get ready for anything that happens here so just everyone should be careful, okay?

Good, I'm glad to hear that. Especially because I might need your help this month. hang on, lemme make this private.

[Boop!]

Since it's a Ruana month, I wanna make sure nothin' happens to Zelda. But I'm not really good with magic yet and I'm not strong so I can't do it by myself.

[See where this is going?]

[puppy_lancer]

So you want me to help you protect Zelda?

[A pause.]

Sure, why not. We can take turns. Help me keep an eye on my brother when you have the time?

video

[stop_calling_me_zelda]

Yeah. Thanks!

[So she can make sure Zelda's safe at least since Link is gone.]

I can do that.

Re: video

[puppy_lancer]

So, where is she now? I'll go check up on her.

video

[stop_calling_me_zelda]

Her room or the meadow are my best guesses right now.

Re: video

[puppy_lancer]

Alright. I'll go check there.

[A pause.]

Hey, what about her knight? That little lady still around?

[stop_calling_me_zelda]

[Loooooong confused stare.]

What lady? Link's the only knight Zelda's ever had.

video

[stop_calling_me_zelda]

[Wait.

Wait a second.

Wisdom.]

LINK WAS A GIRL??

Re: video

[puppy_lancer]

...What, she never told you?

[Hoo boy, this might get complicated.]

video

[stop_calling_me_zelda]

OF COURSE NOT.

OH NO, I KEPT TRYING TO GET ZELDA AND LINK TO DATE.

NO WONDER ZELDA WAS UPSET.

Re: video

[puppy_lancer]

...It's not that bad. I mean, it might not be common, but girls can date other girls.

[Hell, his own brother is dating another man.]

But...uh...if they didn't like each other in that way, well...yeah.

video

[stop_calling_me_zelda]

[Pout:] But Zelda can't. She's the princess of Hyrule, she has to have an heir and she can't have one of those without a guy.

[Yeah, guys who knows about the birds and the bees already.]

Re: video

[puppy_lancer]

That...does sound like a problem.

[He scratches his head.]

Doesn't seem like she wants to make any heirs yet.

video

[stop_calling_me_zelda]

Not yet but she has to have them someday or I wouldn't exist.

[puppy_lancer]

...That's true. But...uh...not right now, I guess. And just because you have kids with someone doesn't mean you have to like only them. You can love more than one person.

Who you love isn't going to matter. If getting loaded was possible here, my girlfriend would be spitting out half a dozen by now.

You know Zelda's going to kill you two when she sees this.

Re: text:anon

[stop_calling_me_zelda]

[ALL THE KEYSMASHING EVER.]

Who are you?

I thought I filtered this.

DON'T YOU DARE TELL HER.

text:anon

[midgarhorizon]

The filters aren't that hard to break.

Want to bet?

Re: text:anon

[stop_calling_me_zelda]

What, ain't you got a life? Gotta be nosy on other peoples conversations?

I will find you and end if you do.

text:anon

[midgarhorizon]

Nope! Just on this one.

I'd like to see you try, kiddo.

[Is it obvious he's all kinds of amused.]

[puppy_lancer]

hey, stop harassing the kid
or she's not the only one who's gonna be breaking you

[stop_calling_me_zelda]

Are princesses allowed to do that?

[puppy_lancer]

Pretty much, yeah. Ones at my place were, anyways.

[Then again, the people of his time and age were...pretty free.]

[stop_calling_me_zelda]

Really?

[Huh.]

Never knew that. Then again, nobody really thinks about the Royal Family in my time and nobody ever taught me anything about it since I think my mom was the only one that knew we were what was left of it.

[puppy_lancer]

Alright, I get it.

What happened in your time? Some new family take over your country?
