Closed to Sidon
Mar. 23rd, 2021 10:27 pmLink wasn’t too sure what to think when Dorephan summoned him to the Domain: he just grabbed the message the Rito brought him, grabbed the slate and immediately moved back to the Zora capital without even bothering to lock the door of his house in Hateno. Was the Hinox bothering the guards once more? Was Ruta creating more troubles? Who knew. He wasn’t going to let his favorite people (and his favorite prince) deal with any trouble on their own.
It was a relief when the King informed him all he needed was an escort for his son in order to see him reach Lurelin in complete safety. Any excuse to spend time with the Zora prince was always more than welcome and the idea of traveling together… Link had a stupid smile painted on his face the whole time as Sidon got ready to depart.
The knight had his sword, he had a good set of enhanced hylian clothes for protection and…
“Mh-mh!”
He had jewelry for the prince, in case of necessity. Returning to Gerudo Town in order to have a topaz circlet had been a wonderful idea. Okay, perhaps he asked for it because the original plan was using both electricity resistant gems and his amber earrings but- details. Now he had something he could offer the prince.
Link was literally beaming when Sidon finally reached him and the two left the Domain. There was a long moment of hesitation after they crossed the bridge, then Link reached for the other man’s fin and gently pulled it in order to have his attention.
“I’m glad your dad asked me.” he spelled with movements of his fingers. “it’s been far too long since we spent time together.”

He had no doubts about that, he was still lost and relatively scared when he wandered in the Domain after waking up in the Shrine and Sidon had been a beacon of hope and positivity for him. "You look dashing too! But I already said that!"
Goddess above, that was getting awkward, he just... wanted Sidon to know how much he meant to him and how appreciated his friendship and company were.
"I see." He only commented with a nod, listening to the prince's plans for hit trip. Of course he wanted to keep good relations with other tribes, that was... so much like him. Link's ears dropped, then, when the shark went silent after his last comment.
Did he offend him? The knight bit his lips, fingers twitching as he tried to find the right words to apologize.
"Sorry. Not mean you bad-" aaaaand he could kiss goodbye his ability to spell proper sentences, at least for the moment. If Sidon had his tongue tied, Link could say the same about his fingers. "You great fighter, I believe you. Just-" He nervously waved his hands in the air, trying to tell Sidon that he still wanted to keep him safe, he didn't want the prince to be put at risk if there was no need and... "Duty!"
And he hated himself because that was the only word he managed out and it didn't cover at all the extend of Link's feelings.

No wonder why his sister loved him.
“I have upmost faith in you, and your abilities. Merely, I just cannot be a burden to you and your time. Do not feel like you must be my knight. We are in this together, after all.”

Date: 2021-04-01 04:52 pm (UTC)Link was recoiling more and trying to release a bunch of words. He had to do something, else his friend was going to have panic and anxiety. He didn't need to do that with him. Even if they were alone and Sidon wanted Link tp be honest about his feelings...seeing Link in distress just made his little conscious ache in his heart and mind.
So, he would smile at the hero and try to see if he could hold one of his tiny hands in his large ones.
They were alone. Finally. This had to be fine.
"Link, it is alright, I am merely just..." he paused, free hand on his chest as he spoke. "...charmed, that you would go to that length for me. Perhaps that is why my father requested you. I trust you, remember that."
That wasn't the full reason WHY his father wanted Link there, but.
