[...Wha- Okay wait a minute, he's mouthing out how each one is pronounced. Kah-n-gee... the sec- oh, it's his name.]
[...]
[Well, might as well tell him how they're spelled! Private, to save him from the public embarrassment.]
巽完二 → Tatsumi Kanji
鳴上悠 → Narukami Yu
白鐘直斗 → Shirogane Naoto
花村陽介 → Hanamura Yosuke
天城雪子 → Amagi Yukiko
里中千枝 → Satonaka Chie
Also, it's spelled 'video.'

[And to public video he goes, after sending instructions on how to change it in an easy-to-understand (hopefully) manner.]

I'm Yu. Nice to meet you, Link. I haven't seen Naoto-kun or Chie-chan in a while, though... [Is that... worry? Hard to tell behind the masks.]

Edited (dw, stop eating parts of my comments. :|) 2012-04-20 11:47 (UTC)

[Oh, good! Knowing how to change it is good.
Hey there, Yu, have a little, tiny kid. No more than nine.
And he is giving you a big smile!]

It's nice to meet you, too!
Um... Well, I'm sure they're okay; my sister's kinda gone missing too, but all her stuff is gone. I think this place let her go home, since all her stuff is gone, too.
It might have done the same with your friends, maybe!

[...oh. oh man, big brother instincts. Why do you kick in already--
...Now he misses Nanako even more, but he won't say it and continue smiling. A bit amused. After all, she promised not to cry- so he won't, either.]

I hope you're right. I think their things were missing, too.

[Is Link going to have to add you to his Big Brother pile too, Yu?]

I feel like I'm right! And normally if I feel like I'm right, I'm right.
Normally.

[Heh... heheh...;;]

But, um... that's kind of a sad thing to talk about right now - so, uh.
Thank you for teaching me how to spell all of your names! I'm not really good at spelling, but I'm getting better, I think.
But it was really nice of you to help!

[More than likely. :V Also, he caught onto that last bit... but it doesn't dissuade him since hey, everyone makes mistakes and he's Hope, so...]

No problem. I used to tutor back home, so I don't really mind. Also, there are a few others who aren't here that you should be aware of in case they arrive: Rise and Teddie.

[Oh look, a text with how to spell their names!]
久慈川りせ → Kujikawa Rise
クマ → Teddie

You're doing really well. The only thing I think you need to work on is capitalization. [c:]

[At this rate, Link's going to have an army of Big Brothers.
He kind of mouths out their names when Yu sends them to him, and nods.]

Well, um... someone taught me that the shifty button makes capital letters, but then it takes me a long time to spell everything out, so I kinda leave it out...

And, uh - I-I'm sorry, but I don't know what the symbols are before the names when you help me spell them. [blink blink.]
Should I know them?

[It will be the best army of Big Brothers and friends.]

It's fine, though maybe something to practice later on when you get used to typing more?

[He chuckles.]

It's how we spell them in Japanese. I didn't expect you to, really. [He's just used to writing them... His bad.]

[No one will ever pick on Link. Ever.]

Okay! I'll make sure to practice it.

Some of the symbols kinda looked like what I spelled in, back home, though. Kind of, I mean, not a whole lot...
But that's really neat! Is that what you spelled in before you got taken, here?

[All in fear of the mob of big brothers coming from everywhere. Literally!

He nods approvingly.]

Really? That's kind of neat, too.
And yeah, it was.

Heheh; I'd ask if you could teach me how to spell like you do, but I'm having a hard time learning my Big Brother's Hylian right now...

And I am a Hylian!

[The sadness of it all. But he is nine, so...
~~Plus this Link is quite a bit dumber than the other Links~~]

That would require learning another language too, though.

[all the sads, but hey- he's at least a little amused.]

It takes everyone a while to learn their own language. I'm sure you'll get the hang of it someday.

[~~BELIEVE IN THE FELLOW PROTAG WHO BELIEVES IN YOU~~.]

Oh... I guess it would, huh?

[~~Only not really because Hylian and Japanese is the SAME LANGUAGE~~]

Well... I'm sure I will, if you think I will! You said you tutored back home, so you would know!

[He nods.

~~BAHAHA OH WELL NOT LIKE THEY KNOW IT THEIR SIDE OF THE FOURTH WALL~~]

'Anything is possible if you do your best.' It's not just for tutoring, but a lesson in life.

[Aw... that gets another warm smile from the kid.]

Mhm! I learned that a long time ago, but it's always true!

You're really nice, Yu... I can see why you're Kanji's friend, now!

That it is. [Oh look, another smile from him as well.]

Heh. Someone has to help keep him in line sometimes.

[smiiirk. yep, leaving it public on purpose.]

But really, I owe him a lot, too- kindness can be a two-way street.

... Heheh; I can help keep'im in line for you, then!

[:3c]

I thought kindness is supposed to be a two-way street, though?

Thanks, Link-kun.

[c:!!]

It is, but sometimes people forget that as they grow older.

jjez

jeez kid those are some weirdnames

who are you talkin to with names like that

hang on [Smash smash]

jasjbnmslaliijkdefne sdhas

[Smash smash-- Oh look, video.]

That's more like it.

[Ehehehehe. Sorry, Tetra, he's laughing at all that smashing.]

Well, I guess I made'em a lot weirder than they actually are - Yu helped me spell'em right.

... Oh, uh - I don't mean you-Yu. Kanji has a friend who's name is Yu, and he taught me how to spell'em right and use the video!

[Don't make her find you and beat you up, kid.]

Still sound like weird names t'me.

[You know he's an even match, Tetra. >:(]

I dunno... I like their names! "Yukiko" is pretty sounding, and "Kanji" sounds really strong!
"Yu" is kinda silly, but that's his name; it's mean to make fun of it, y'know?

[And she'll cheat. Pirate rules.]

I guess that'd be kind mean. And "Yukiko" does sound a little pretty.

[On one hand, Kanji found this super adorable and everything but he was still Kanji and a tiny bit shy about all of this attention directed at him and his friends.]

Aww kid, you could've just asked me and I would have introduced you to them. I didn't realize you wanted to meet em!

Well, I didn't wanna bug you or anything, Kanji! But I thought that since you're really nice, they must be really nice, too!
'N I like people who are nice.

[Smile smile! c:]

And they are nice, too - Yu is really helpful, he taught me how to spell your names!

[No. No you stop that this instant, being so cute and adorable and ablablababla there is literally nothing he can do anymore but grin.

It feels...it feels nice.]

Heh heh! I had a feeling senpai would do that. He's a pretty good teacher actually. I'd just would've made it worse. My writing ain't that good.

... Spelling isn't hard, you just have to get used to how letters and sounds work.

[ He can help. ]

It's kinda hard for me, though... but I'm gonna work on it, anyway!

[Dude, he is nine okay. He can hardly spell in Hylian.]

[ LET HIM TUTOR YOU HE'S GOOD AT IT-- ]

Ah, it's no problem, Link-san. If you want to work on it, I can help you. Really, I promise it's easier than it looks.

[ARE YOU GOING TO BE HIS BIG BROTHER TOO, MINATO]

"Link... san"?

[Headtiiiilt]

Well, um... if you want to, but I've been learning on my own...

[... heh. He's a little too lazy for actually sitting down and studying it.]

... Oh, sorry. I forgot not everyone speaks Japanese--it's an honorific, similar to the English version of "Mister" or "Miss". It's a formality thing; you attach honorifics to people's names to show various forms of respect. To not use them is considered disrespectful, actually, or that you know this person better than anyone.

It's also usually more polite to use their last name first.

[Kanjee... Yohskay... Is it how it's spelled or does the boy have trouble spelling?]

I don't believe I've heard those names before, but I will keep on a look out if I see them.

But yes, I just have woken up on the tower recently, hello.

thank you!

ahoy! co:
its nice to meet you sinse youre new and all
my name is link but ther are a lot of other links here too so
you can call me sea!
or you can call me whatever you want too im ok with that!

There are duplicates of yourself...? Fair enough, I'm Eriko you can call me Elly, it's nice to meet you as well.

oh no not duplicates! its a hero thing
every hero from where i come from is named link sinse theres not a lot of us!

ill call you elly then
its a really pretty name!

A hero thing? A legend of sort from where you come from I presumed?

And thank you, it's a nickname my friends call me.

well sort of
i think it was the godesses who decided that the hero is always named link thogh!

So a prophecy to which the hero(es) of your world is named Link then? That's rather fascinating, it must be an honor to be part of such a legend.

You have an interesting way of judging how nice people may or may not be.
