hdhsjardsadhfhkjfhkvh turn on write where is the paper????? dsjakleuwoiqrysf dashf

[WHACK. Hitting the computer activates the video function. Glaring at the screen is a tan-skinned man with pointed ears, a lovely gin-blossom nose, sunken eyes, and... green hair. And he's already changed out of that weird jumpsuit and into his normal clothes. The top of his orange collar is barely visible over his red cravat.

He narrows his eyes at the screen, then down at the keyboard]

Blasted... typewriter! What kind of contraption is this! Where's the paper?! Cursed LIARS, telling me I could communicate with people using this thing!

[and now he's shaking the computer. Or trying to]

HEY!! TELL ME HOW TO GET BACK, YOU INFERNAL MACHINE!! Put me back on my ship right this instant!

Well, you don't have to bow to me. I'm just a salty seadog, after all.

Well, lakes and such are nice, but they don't have a thing on the sea. Ah well. Maybe one day, when we get out of here.

... I wish I could join you to see it someday, Mister Linebeck.
And whether you are "just a salty seadog" or not, it's still polite...
But I won't anymore, if you feel I shouldn't.

[Because... doing something when asked not to is rude, right? 8|]

You'll have to forgive me, though. I am... not quite used to social customs just yet.

[Except Kokiri ones, whoops.]

[he blushes a little because she's just SO GOSHDARN CUTE and innocent and it feels wrong to hit on her SOB]

It makes me feel weird!

Hm? Why's that?

Well, I wouldn't want you to feel weird, then!

And it's because I...
I was raised in a forest, you see - with the children of the forest, the Kokiri.
I'm still getting used to being around other Hylians.

[The Great Deku Tree taught her her manners but there's a lot of things the Great Deku Tree and Hylians do differently...]

Oh! So you're a rural girl. I see. Hehehe. Well, your manners aren't too off. I think you're very nice and polite.

In my time, we don't really have Kokiri, I don't think. Hylians though, we do. I am one! Though the only difference is our ears, see.

Not even rural, unfortunately.

[That gets a bit of a kind laugh.]

I lived in a tree and was raised by the spirit of the forest, Mister Linebeck.

[She knows what rural is, though! That's... like farm communities, right? Malon and her father!]

But I'm glad you think that of me, Mister Linebeck. I try my hardest to treat people how they deserve.
Such as you - you are a very kind man, so of course I am going to be very kind in return.

... That is like... ultra rural. Super naturey. Uh. But that's neat. I guess. [HE'S KIND OF UNSURE maybe this chick is crazy...]

Ahaha... well, I'm nice to ladies by default! Gotta be a gentleman.

[No, not crazy. Just... sheltered.]

Well, that is more than most men can say. I appreciate it, Mister Linebeck.

[Prince Ganon's only nice because he's a prince, for example.]

[he gives her that WINNING ADVENTURER'S SMILE, then flops down in the grass, spreading his arms out]

If it's all the same to you, Miss Zelda, I think I'll stay here for a while.

Of course. You need the rest anyway, I'd say.

[He looked so stressed out, earlier -]

I need to go make a few arrows to replace the ones I've lost; if you ever need me, you can come find me in my room, alright?

Ah, I could use a nap, aye.

[he closes his eyes and puts his arms behind his head]

Which room is yours?

2-07. You can visit me whenever you would like.

Assuming I'm there, of course.

[he grins, but doesn't open his eyes]

Got it. I'll see you around then, Miss Zelda.

[and if he comes across any monsters, he'll be screaming her name.]

Take care, Mister Linebeck.

[Even though he can't see it, she gives him a little wave before leaving.
He's a pretty nice guy.]
