WHO: Link and you!
WHERE: The Hangar, the Hotel, and various places across Temba
WHAT: Link searches for scientists, looks at ships, and moves into a new home
WHEN: After Link's arrival & the blizzard event
WARNINGS: None expected
The new ponty-eared arrival in Temba isn't exactly looking like a style icon as he runs around Temba, wearing the slightly oversized sweatshirt and pants that Gladio gave him. In deference to the cold, on top of that he's also tied an old ratty blanket around his neck, as if it were a cloak.
And of course, on top of that, there is the Master Sword, slung on his back.
But Link certainly doesn't let the fact that he arrived wholly unprepared for the winter cold stop him from exploring this new location.
I. Searching forquest-givers scientists
So, Link is here. He knows he's here because the Agrii want heroes to help save them from the storms. He knows, at this point, absolutely nothing about said storms, or how to stop them.
But Gladio mentioned 'smart science types'. People like Purah, or Robbie. People who might have the knowledge and intelligence to figure out what's going on. If Link's going to figure out how he's going to help...they seem like a good place to start.
So he goes looking. Maybe he manages to track someone down by name. Maybe he finds a place that looks suitably...sciency, and just figures that whoever is in there is probably a scientist. Or knows where to find one.
Either way, wherever they are, Link will find them. And then just kind of look at them, with an odd, intense yet strangely blank-faced expression.
"...Hi," he says, still staring.
II. Hangar & the ships
The ships Link found partly while looking for scientists, partly while just exploring.
When he first sees them, he just...stares. He has no frame of reference for what these massive things are. But he can't help but be reminded - at least in some way - of the Divine Beasts. But while the Divine Beasts were similarly colossal in scale, they weren't spread out across Hyrule. Not all clustered together, in one place.
Link definitely wants to see what's inside these.
Though it takes a while, before he can get into one. The first few he tries, for whatever reason, he just...can't get in. But then he comes to the one that looks a bit scrappy - the Bloodsport - and the door just opens at a touch.
He peers in. What will he find in here?
III. The hotel
In the days and weeks after Link moves into one of the Hotel rooms, a few themes will soon emerge to anyone who pays attention.
Firstly, Link clearly pays absolutely no attention to any kind of schedule; he is just as likely to leave or arrive in the middle of the night, as he is any time during the day. Though he doesn't spend all that much time in the room itself, usually spending his time elsewhere.
Secondly, he keeps bringing back things. A armfull of baconrooms. Several bunches of Chicken Daisies. Pieces of wood. Rocks. Assorted debris. Even a few small lizards, one time. Although Link soon learned - to his disappointment - that lizards don't always stay where you put them.
He also has a habit of not always taking the stairs. There's a perfectly good window, after all. Why walk down, when you can climb?

Addressing any of those emotions would be dreadfully complicated, though.
"...Okay," Dustin concedes with a sniff, quickly wiping a hand across his nose while he struggles to regain his composure. "Good. Then we, uh. We have a deal."
no subject
And while Link is entirely out of depth with dealing with someone like Dustin - so explosive, and yet so strangely fragile at the same time - at least they're now moving onto familiar ground.
Outbursts may be unfamiliar territory, but tasks are not. Link nods. Then, after a moment's hesitation, he adds: "...What am I doing?"
Because Dustin hasn't actually explained that yet.

"Construction," Dustin says through a deep, somewhat shaky exhale, to pick up where he remembers leaving off. "I have a particularly large piece of equipment that needs to be moved out of a building. I had to take out part of the wall to get it inside before winter, and now it's ready to go back out, so, the wall needs to go as well. Then the equipment needs to be hauled across the city and installed."
no subject
A pity he doesn't have the Sheikah Slate, though. Remote bombs and magnesis would probably make this much, much easier.
"When?" Link asks. Does Dustin want Link to help now? Or later?

And at this point, Link's achieved what he was after. He's found a scientist, offered them help, and been assigned a task to complete. Even if it was a bit...awkward, in the middle there.
There's nothing else for Link to stay for now.
"Bye," he says, before running off.
no subject
He continues on his intended path back to his shop, storing their conversation away.
