Floor Eleven, have a Hero of Time /o/ also too lazy for prose oops

[ocariness]

[ Well, yes, you are pretty noticeable. Thing is, though, Link is just busy practicing her swordwork here because she likes the open atmosphere.

Not that, you know. Anyone can even tell she's a she, but that's sort of aside the point. There is kind of no way that someone made a cosplay THIS GOOD and then proceeded to train this much. Backflips, certain other theatrics, and so on. After all, couldn't let those sword skills rest in a place this dangerous.

Geek, stare, other? ]

\o/ ! YEEEAAH LAZINESS

[metawoof]

[>All of the above.

Her ninja mission possibly could've been successful if she hadn't gotten distracted. Because Oh. My. Gosh. That was the best costume she'd ever seen and holy crap those moves that is so cool!!

So yeah she's basically distracted watching Link practice for a bit, attempting to hide on the staircase, before she popped up onto the floor unable to contain her excitement.]

Oh my gosh, that is so cool!!

LAZINESS IS THE BEST DEMOTIVATOR.

[ocariness]

[ Oh, there is a girl running up to her. She lowers her sword and shield, blinking--honestly, she keeps getting such strange reactions here, she wonders why that is.

... She can only assume the girl means "cool" not in the sense of the temperature. A compliment, then? ]

Ah... thank you.

[ She's a Hylian of few words, though she is quietly assessing whether or not she knows this girl. Maybe she's new? ]

AND THE BEST EXCUSE

[metawoof]

[Unluckily for Link, Echidna could do enough talking for the both of them, and probably a talk show host.]

Where did you learn to do that?!-- Are those real...?! [She asked, gesturing towards the sword and shield.]

[ocariness]

[ ... Why do people keep asking her these odd questions, she doesn't even. ]

... I learned on my own.

[ As for the second question, that gets a nod. She is fairyless, unfortunately, or this is probably where Navi and Echidna would never. Shut. Up. ]

It would be wise if you armed yourself as well--this tower is very dangerous.

[ Can't have you plucky kids running around getting hurt. ]

[metawoof]

[Echidna and Navi would be the best friends ever just saying]

You taught yourself how to do that?! [Whooooah.]

[Her amazement and fangirl-yness is distracted however, at the next thought.] Dangerous? What do you mean? Did someone fall off the top or break one of the windows or something?

[ocariness]

[ She frowns, deciding the danger of the tower is far more important than how she was fairly good with a blade. ]

... No. I mean that there are many creatures in this tower that would bring you harm... and that the people who took you here may bring you to harm as well.

[metawoof]

Creatures? [Well now this is just silly.] What do they have, some kind of mutant blobs or something? I'm not afraid of some silly monsters~! Or the weirdos that set this place up!

[ocariness]

[ ... The Hylian has never met a child so unaware to the danger around her. Perhaps because as a child, she herself grew up around a very dangerous world, even in her safe haven, she recognized that there were dangers in the woods at night. She sighs, sheathing the Master Sword and tucking away her shield on her back before she sits on a nearby stone. ]

It's unwise to boast unless you can support a claim--do you think you can fight off the Phantoms that appear on this floor on your own? If so, I have no need to lecture you, I am sure.

[ She is not used to talking to anyone like this, and it is odd to say this much for her, to be frank. Though... she manages a small smile, nonetheless. ]

But it is wise not to fear the ones who took us, as I imagine that would be what they desire.

[metawoof]

[When you lived in a big house in an average city, there weren't exactly many dangers to prepare you for anything, sadly.]

Phantoms? [Her head tilted to the side in curiosity.] Ghosts are intangible though, why would you need to fight them?

[Kind of missing the point a bit. But whatever, Link smiled, so she smiled back!] The only thing to fear is fear itself, right? Franklin Roosevelt~! Even if there is bad stuff, crying isn't going to get anywhere, right? [Not that she really believed there was anything particularly dangerous..]

[ocariness]

[ Link blinks, tilting her head. ]

I'm afraid I have not heard of that person, though being upset would not aid anyone.

[ But she considers for a moment Echidna's first remark. ]

There is a different between the creatures here and the undead. The ones I have fought in my home can turn intangible at will, however, should you try a direct approach. A friend of mine is quite versed in creatures, I am sure she would know how the ones here operate better than I.

[metawoof]

Oh! He was one of the presidents of the United States back during World War 2. A lot of people liked him and I think he said that when he was talking about the war when a lot of people were scared of being attacked.

[Echidna listened attentively, her eyes widening a bit in surprise.] You have actually seen real ghosts?! That is so cool!!! [Probably not something she should be excited about, but she's excited anyway.]

Ooh, who is it? I would love to learn more about them~!! [Seriously SO MUCH EXCITEMENT.]

[ocariness]

[ Have a blink. ]

I'm... afraid I don't know what any of those are. I apologize.

[ She is from an entirely different world and land, Echidna. She does not even know what a president IS. ]

However, I would love to introduce you, but she did not accompany me here. Her name is Navi, she's a fairy, and my partner.

then this became an impromptu american history lesson

[metawoof]

Uuuuuh.... [For a minute she was at a loss. She had instances where people didn't know what she was talking about, but usually not those things!]

OK! So, the United States is a country in North America. It is very big and compromises fifty different individual states. A president is the person that runs the entire country, while the individual states also have their own individual rulers, which are called governors. And World War 2 was a GIANT conflict [and she extended her arms out here to emphasize] that encompassed almost all of the countries in the entire world in some way!

[After that little spiel though, she smiled, which quickly changed to a frown.] Oh, I am sorry...! I have a friend who is not here either....

[--Wait a minute.] You have a friend that is a fairy?!

it's okay Link doesn't know anything about a dif. world so.

[ocariness]

[ She does listen intently to every word, blinking and tilting her head a bit. ]

So you do not have a King who rules your people? I'm afraid I've never heard of your world before now.

[ So yeah that's probably what's causing confusion all around. Still, Link dismisses some of it off-hand. ]

And... yes, I do. Are they not common where you live?

[ Well, Link does recall hearing one England talk to her about how most people don't see magic or anything, so... ]

[metawoof]

Nope! We used to have Kings and I there are some countries that still do. A president is kind of like a King except he is chosen by the people!

[~DEMOCRACY~]

[Echidna excitedly shook her head.] No! Well, there are stories about them and they exist in fairytales, but I did not think they were real or really existed!
