[Action for Zelda / video]

[Action, closed to Zelda]

[Nothing to see here, just a sleepy green lump...]

[Video, somewhat later]

[Hi, Vatheon, here's a face you haven't seen in a little while. Link waves sleepily, still kind of groggy after, well, sleeping for a month.]

[Again.]

Hi, everyone. I guess I fell asleep again, huh? It's okay, I've already been to the coral. [Indeed, he woke up there.]

Um... have I missed anything important?

[Lloyd lets out a soft breath, relief clear on his face.]

There you are.

[He offers Link a small, lopsided grin.]

You missed getting chocolate.

[blessedbyfarore]

[Link gives Lloyd a smile in return, stretching a little. And then, of course, his face falls comically...]

Aww, I did? What was the chocolate for? Was it another holiday?

[redcladidealist]

Yeah, Valentine's Day. You know what that is?

[Lloyd figures it's a fairy question to ask. He certainly hasn't been familiar with all the holidays people celebrate in Vatheon.]

[blessedbyfarore]

[It is indeed a fair question! Hyrule somewhat lacks Valentine's Day.]

Oh... no, I don't think so. But you get chocolate for it, huh?

[redcladidealist]

It's a holiday that's supposed to celebrate love, but not everyone's in love, so friendship or family counts, too. A lot of people give out candy or flowers or cards. The people here gave us fish chocolates!

[blessedbyfarore]

Oh... well, a day about friends and family is nice too! You got chocolates shaped like fish, huh?

[No, Link. Worse. Much worse.]

[redcladidealist]

Yup! Some of them were pretty good! But, uh, some of them...

[There's a brief flash of queasiness on his face.]

...you don't like raw fish, do you?

[blessedbyfarore]

[Just.]

[This expression.]

[redcladidealist]

Didn't think so. Some of the chocolates tasted like they had raw fish in them. I'm not sure if they really did. I tried cutting them apart, but they just looked like chocolate.

[On second thought, maybe it's better that Link missed out on this.]

[blessedbyfarore]

[Link cringes - okay, maybe there was no actual fish in it, but chocolate and fish are two flavours that should never go together.]

I used to fish at Lake Hylia... I didn't cook one long enough once, and it was gross. Chocolate should never taste like that!

[redcladidealist]

I used to fish from the stream that ran near my house. I know exactly what you mean. Worse, I guess, because I actually tasted it.

Some of the chocolates were actually really good, though, so I can't say it was all bad.

[blessedbyfarore]

[Not like he eats fish any more... still, he pulls a face in commiseration.] I guess if there were nice ones too, that makes it sort of okay...

[Oh, and there's a grin.] Are there any good ones left?

[redcladidealist]

I think I have a couple, if you don't mind the fact that they got melted a little bit. They were in my pocket, so I stuck them in the fridge. You want them?

[blessedbyfarore]

Oh... well, they got put together again, right? Sure! [Even formerly-melted-and-re-solidified chocolate is chocolate, isn't it? Keywords relevant.]

[redcladidealist]

[As far as Lloyd's concerned? Definitely still chocolate!]

Where are you at? I'll bring it over.

[blessedbyfarore]

I'm back at home. But I can go to the plaza or something, if you want to go somewhere else!

[redcladidealist]

Actually, I moved into a new place and I'm a lot closer to the forest now. You know where the Winespring Inn is, just outside it?

[blessedbyfarore]

Huh... I think I know where that is. I can meet you there, okay? Asi needs to stretch his legs, anyway.

[redcladidealist]

Sure! See you soon, then?

[blessedbyfarore]

Yeah! I'll bring some carvings to show you - I did a whole lot!

[And busily getting things together in the background, ready to set off again.]

[It's good to be back.]

[redcladidealist]

Carvings, huh? I'll look foroward to seeing them!

[And he will! It's fun seeing someone improve in something he's interested in!]

Okay, bye Link!

[He grins and waves. Yes, it's good to have his friend back.

He turns his SFC off.]
