April catch-all
WHO: Link and Dustin, Tommmy, Radley, and you!
WHERE: Various places in and around Temba and Sh'ka
WHAT: Link goes hunting, bothers Dustin, makes some dubious drinks and attempts to contact the Funfronds
WHEN: In the weeks after the Ah! Real Monsters! Event
WARNINGS: animal murder
i. Senseless animal murder aka Hunting [open]
Link's hunting more frequently these days. Mainly because he learned, much to his dismay, that without his korok-enchanted pack he doesn't have a good way to keep meat long-term. So rather than doing a lot of hunting at once, he needs to head out regularly for smaller kills that he can cook that day.
So he can frequently be found in the forests outside Temba - or Sh'ka, if he happens to be there instead - moving swiftly and silently, his compound bow at the ready.
Between the trees, he spots one of the small, dinosaur-like Gallies. Crouches down, and inches further. Before drawing his bow, aiming right for the creatures head, and letting the arrow go.
ii. You can never have too many shields [closed to Dustin]
Dustin had made Link promise not to tell anyone about the Workshop, or where it was. A promise he had absolutely taken seriously, and had kept.
What Dustin had not done, however, was make Link promise not to show up there whenever he felt like it.
The challenge, however, was getting in to the workshop. Dustin had evidently left a puzzle for Link, because he soon found that the door was locked and the windows boarded up. But there was this little square flap at the bottom of the back door. If Link takes of his Sword and bow and makeshift shield - and carefully lays them next to the flap - he might be able to squeeze through.
Which he, of course, immediately proceeds to attempt to do.
iii. Making The Frog Drink [closed to Tommy and Radley]
This wasn't Link's first time cooking at the diner. He'd become a bit of a regular, actually - though he was always happy to cook for everyone else around too, when he was there. Sometimes making unusually elaborate dishes using whatever new and interesting ingredients he'd managed to find.
Today, however, it was a bit different. Today, Link was experimenting.
Thanks to the Agriculture datapoint, he knew how to make something close to the elixirs he made back in Hyrule with local plants. But the datapoint didn't tell him anything about using animals, or insects. Which meant Link had to figure out what he could make by pure trial and error.
The end result of this was Link cooking up an increasingly odd series of concoctions, using things like butterflies, beetles, lizards, crabs, grasshoppers. And, of course, frogs.
Link had a good feeling about the frog. This one, he was sure, was going to do something.
iv. Are these the new Koroks? [closed to Funfronds]
Link had heard about the Funfronds from Dustin. Knew at least a little of what they were, from the Dictionary. But hearing about them was one thing - Link wanted to see them for himself.
And he was so very, very curious.
So, he's staked out the ruins near the greenhouse, late one evening. Thought a little about how he might indicate he was friendly to them. He ended up combing through the ruins, and leaving an apple or other piece of small fruit whenever he found a little nook or cranny. He didn't know if the Funfronds were anything like Koroks, but if they were - well, maybe they'd appreciate the gifts too? Course, Koroks also liked thinks like Link picking up rocks, and shooting balloons, and jumping into circles of lilies in the water...
...Maybe he'd try those later. If the apples didn't work. For now, though, he just sits in one corner in the ruins. And waits.
V. Wildcard!

"Can make you one!" he says, before darting back to the the stovetop, where he starts tossing together ingredients for another concoction. As he does so, he bounces up and town on his toes - clearly overflowing with energy even if he's not running in circles.

"Maybe another one?" It'd be nice, to be able to give Radley something. Link likes having things for himself - but he likes giving things to other people too.

Thankfully perhaps for Radley's sensibilities, the primary ingredient of this one isn't a frog. Instead, he's a bright yellow mushroom.
no subject
"So, do you do this kind of thing back home too?" he asks.
no subject
Especially in the early days, when he was still weak from the Shrine. When he had to face enemies who strength dwarfed Link's own, or when he didn't yet have the right kind of armour to help him survive the elements.

Link really should figure out new terminology.
"Ready!" he says, as he pours the concoction into a bottle, and holds it out to Radley. Oh right, he should probably make sure Radley knows how to use it, shouldn't it? "...Don't drink it," he says. "Goes on your skin."

He might be experimenting, but he's not a scientist. Scientific rigour is absolutely not being applied here.

And then he turns back to his cooking pot and ingredients, because hey - there's still more things to try out. Maybe he'll figure out a few more recipes.

As far as Link's concerned, there is no such thing as enough elixirs. Only the limit of what he can physically carry.

"I've eaten bad things before." Lots of bad things, in fact. Especially after he just woke up, and hadn't yet remembered how to cook properly. Or what was actually edible.
no subject
"... Did you ever hurt yourself doing that?" Radley asks.
no subject
"Not too bad," he says. He'd lived.
no subject

And the last thing Link wants to do is get in the way of food.
So he starts cleaning up - setting aside the pots and pans for washing, putting away his ingredients, wiping down all of the benches.
