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?

"Wow! That's so amazing!" He says excitedly. "It was like-Man! And Whoa!"He gestures with all the enthusiasm of a hyperactive ten year old. "-and then at the end-that's awesome."
"PIKA!" Pikachu agrees, just as enthusiastically. A beat.
"How'd you do that? And who was that lady?" Ash can't help but ask.
no subject
But then Ash asks about Urbosa, and the smile fades.
"...She's Urbosa," he says. "That's her ability."
Given to him by her spirit - which, at least in some part, is still with Link. He's glad to have her with him. Even though it's also a reminder that she's gone. He still doesn't even remember that much of her. But he remembers enough to miss her, and to wish he remembered more.

"Pika.." Pikachu says sadly. He must recognize it too.
"She's.. not around anymore, is she?" He asks gently. "It's great she's still looking out for you though-and you can call on her when you need her."
no subject
But there is the barest hint of a nod. Because yes, it is good to still have her looking out for him. And for Zelda.
"Her spirit gave her Fury to me," he says. "She...she didn't need it anymore."
no subject
He shakes off the solemn feeling in an attempt to cheer things up a little. "If you need any help with anything, you can always ask-Helping people is what we do. Right Pikachu?"
"Pika!" Pikachu agrees.
"I think I forgot to mention it-but my name's Ash."
no subject
"Okay," he says, easily enough. Maybe he could find something nice and not too difficult for Ash to help with. Maybe cooking dinner, just like Koko. Something to help the kid feel useful.
"I'm Link."
