[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!

[Yeah, Link had already figured these things out pretty well - he may be dumb, but he's not stupid. They're different okay

... And sorry, but you're just going to get laughter on this end for a bit.]

Don't be mean to the machine! It didn't do anything!

[Pipit hasn't taught her to use the text function yet. Or at least, what a space bar is. He should do that.

Okay wait, video.... video... how does one make a video.. OH! Here we go!]

You ain't goin' back. Didn't you read the letter? Says our worlds were destroyed. Which is a lie, by the way 'cos otherwise my ancestor wouldn't be here.

Be silent, little man.

[ Have a Ganondorf starring at you. That's the one warning he gives to that weird man on the screen. His screaming are pathetic and annoying. And Ganondorf doesn't tolerate pathetic-ness. ]

[You, sir, look... disheveled. Have a regal looking lady appearing on screen.]

Unfortunately, it does not seem like we can reach our captors through these strange machines.

[And shaking them is also futile, so. Yeah.]

[action] because I can (yea)

[ocariness]

[ Have an older Link with their left eye bandaged over. Like, legit hero status here, way too old to be your squirt. Voice is different too, so is the master sword and mirror shield and stuff but anyway--

They see Linebeck struggling and shake their head, moving to help him. ]

... It did not kidnap you, I am fairly sure it is merely a machine. They are called terminals, think of them like magic two way speaking devices, like mirrors connecting two parts of a place.

I... can help you, if you would like?

[ Considering you're not putting an arrow in it, hey, doing better than they did! ]

[video] welp, have another pretty lady, linebeck

[sevenyearbeautysleep]

[Because I can't help myself.
WHOA. Yeah that outburst made her jump - she'd just been inspecting the terminals for the first time, and sheltered forest girl isn't fond of the yelling; if it wasn't obvious with the raised shield. But... oh, that's a person.
...
There's a man in there. There is a man stuck in that box.

Don't mind the girl inspecting you up and down, Linebeck - or what she can see of you, anyway.]

... How did you get in there? You don't quite look like you fit.

[beknightedheroine]

should we just

run a computers 101 class

i think this is enough piled up evidence now that we need one (´∀`)

[Voice]

[darkestsatisfaction]

[Just. The creepiest laugh ever.]

Wouldn't you like to know~?

[keybearer]

[...snort. Okay, yeah, he can't help but laugh. This guy must not be used to technology at all.]

Let me guess. You don't have computers in your world.
