[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!

[He just really likes showing this thing off, so of course he's gonna show it to Linebeck!

He reaches into the collar of his tunic though, pulling out the Golden Scale that the Hero of Time gifted him, his smile bright and wide.]


This is a Golden Scale - it helps me swim a lot better than normal! I can dive for a really long time, it's great!
It's really important to me, too - I got it from a really close friend.

Not a fish - a Zora!
They don't live on the Great Sea anymore though; they're the Rito's ancestors.

But it really is useful! I could swim just as good as my friend Forest can, and he can turn into a Zora!

[Hey, it's not his fault he sucks at swimming! It's not like his grandma could teach him...]

He's got a magic mask to do it! Well, at least, I think it's magic. He puts it on, and he turns into a grown up Zora, even though he's only a little bit older than I am!

[Forest explained WHY he becomes a grown up, but little Link here's already forgotten why...]

Mhm. Like talking trees and stuff - but I guess that's 'cause he's kind of a big spirit or something?
I dunno; I don't understand spirits and stuff all that well yet.

[He doesn't understand any of the major Hylian religions, in fact.]

Mhm, I guess so!

But I bet you've seen a lot neater stuff, huh? Since you're a sailor and all! An adventurer!

Oh... I've never seen whales before! Unless Jabun counts, but I think he's just a big fish.

And what's a mermaid, Linebeck?

The tail of a fish...

[He has to think of that for a second.]

... Wouldn't she smell funny, then? Like fish do?

I dunno... I don't think I'd like it, even if she was pretty.

[He's nine, okay. If she smells weird, then pretty faces don't matter!]

... I guess so.

[He hates having to wait to understand stuff, though!]
