Video; Questions
[As pleased as Sola was all throughout the RPG curse, cutting weeds and fighting monsters and just generally being in his element, he seems much more sombre when he appears on the network in the early hours of Monday morning. He's sitting on a couch, a small blue instrument in his hands. It seems he can't sleep.]
I thought the curse would help me forget about it, but...
[He turns the ocarina over in his hands, not looking at the camera.]
...what happens if you died on your world and then you get sent back there from here?
[He knows too many where this is the case, and if the tightening of his fingers around the object in his hands is any indication, it's something that weighs on him a great deal.]
And, um, Zelda? If you see this, I'm really sorry I couldn't make a wish.
[He tried very hard, but he just couldn't make it.
Unable to think of much more to say, Sola simply sits and turns the ocarina over in his hands, either waiting for an answer or simply unwilling to turn off the video.]

Look at me...
[He leaned down to press a kiss to Sola's lips, partly in an effort to gain his attention.]
Maybe you didn't get it this time, but that doesn't make you a failure. There'll be other times...[Maybe]
Or are you just going to give up because this one thing didn't work out the way you wanted it to?
I didn't think the Sola I loved was the type to roll over and let troubles walk all over him.

[The kiss cuts him off, rendering him speechless. Johnny kisses him on the lips rarely, usually only when they're having a moment of some kind. He didn't feel like this was, but the kiss tells him differently and he just looks at Johnny somewhere between confusion and shock.]
No, I-I'm not, I just...
[His ears drop back, unsure at all of what to say or do to make it better. He doesn't want to feel like this but he can't just turn it off. He can't make it not hurt that Link is gone and make it magically not his fault that he couldn't get the wish to try and bring him back. He's managed as yet not to let on to Johnny that he lays awake some nights terrified that he'll be sent back and go back to nothing, or that everyone around him will be gone and he'll be left all alone. He doesn't know which is worse.]
...I'm scared...
