A Royal Arrival
WHO: Princess Zelda, you, and Link is probably hovering somewhere close by
WHERE: Various.
WHAT: Zelda's exploring.
WHEN: Later part of July
WARNINGS: none at the moment. Will update if needed.
{ Don't break these pots | Agriculture Building }
Zelda can't remember a time where she was allowed to just sit and re-pot plants like this. There's a thin layer of dirt on her legs and hands but she couldn't feel more at ease as diligently works gathering samplings to try and grow on her own. It's nice knowing that she doesn't have to worry about being told off or that she's not trying hard enough. She has a freedom here that she didn't back home.
She feels a little guilty for thinking that but buries it pretty neatly as she buries the root of the plant she's currently potting. She can worry about her conflicting emotions after she's done here.
"There you are, little one." She says soothingly to the plant and sets it aside to pot another. It's a little odd to her that she suddenly has the knowledge to take care of these plants but she isn't complaining. She wipes her brow, smearing a bit of dirt on her forehead before delicately cutting a sampling from the next plant that has her interest.
{ Moving in | hotel }
Zelda wanted her own room at the hotel. Mostly due to the fact Link's room is... a bit full. She takes a room as close to his as she can manage and sets about putting the few pots she has up on the window sill and opens the window to let more light in.
After taking some time to wash up and once she's clean again she works on arranging her room the way she wants it. She frowns at the lay out of the room. It's not a large space but she's sure if she were to push the bed up against the wall it would at least look like there was more space.
She briefly considers getting Link to move it for her but shakes the idea out of her head. They're not in Hyrule at the moment and no one's going to tell her she can't do things for herself. Alright then, her mind made up, she makes an attempt at moving the bed on her own.
The frame is bolted down but that won't stop her from at least pulling the mattress off. Anyone crossing by might just hear her grunting and struggling to pull the mattress where she wants it to go.
{ Out Wandering }
Evening has set in and she's done all she can for her room at this point. However, she's not quite ready to call it a night as she wanders through Temba, her attention on the map as she studies it carefully. She's in a new place and getting lost wouldn't be ideal.
Besides, she should probably meet some more people and introduce herself since they'll all be working together to try and help the Agrii.

And now she feels like she's floundering again trying not to think about that. Her cheeks are considerably darker and she clears her throat.
"Some of the buildings are cooler on the inside. You should try those." She states, matter of fact and not daring to look over at Link.
no subject
"...Could make you some Chilly elixirs." That would help keep Sonic cool. And really, in this heat? Perhaps Link should make some for everyone else, as well.
He'll have to do some hunting for Chillflies.
no subject
"I know it's cooler inside, and if this heat keeps up that's most likely what I'm gonna end up doing. I just get so bored sitting around indoors, y'know?"
He needs space to run around and do stunts! But no Zelda is absolutely right and Sonic should just slow down for a while and chill in the air conditioning.
...But it sounds like Link knows a thing. Hmm.
"Now, what is chilly elixir? Because I'm picturing some kinda potion made from hotdog chili, and that doesn't sound very appetizing." As much as he likes a chilidog, he doesn't want to drink it ok.
no subject
"A chilly elixir allows one to remain cool even in scorching temperatures such as this." She explains.
no subject
Although, how you make one - and apply it - is a bit different here.
"Different recipe, here. Also more of a salve," he says. "You make it from Chillflies."
no subject
"Anyway, anything that can cool us down here sounds good, but am I hearing this correctly? It's a salve made out of bugs?"
no subject
"Of course. You can make sorts of elixirs with bugs back home. When prepared under the right circumstances and with the right ingredients elixir made from bugs can be very potent and can be used for a variety of medicinal effects." She explains, sounding a little excited by the prospect. "It would be be fascinating to study what the insects here can provide."
no subject
"There's Spikeface beetles. For defence," Link adds. So far, that was the only other useful insect he'd found.
no subject
This sounds like some sciency stuff. Tails would be all over this for sure, but Sonic is maybe just a little grossed out by it. Or a lot grossed out by it.
"So you smear bug guts all over yourself, and it raises your defense?"
no subject
"Well, strictly speaking if would pose an extra layer of protection between you and your enemy. Of course it depends on how tough the beetle's exoskeleton is, I would think."
no subject
As for Sonic, well, his idea of exactly how all this works isn't quite right. Because of course you didn't just smear bugs all of yourself. That would be ridiculous.
"You crush the bugs first," he says. "Cook them into the elixir."
no subject
"Elixir, so... is it meant for drinking too? Who decided to start mashing up and cooking bugs??"
no subject
That's Link's job."A Hylian researcher sometime ago found that if you cook up monster parts with bugs and things like lizards it creates an elixir. Such as restless crickets can be used to make an elixir that replenishes stamina. It's fascinating."
no subject
Though he didn't remember that bit about the Hylian researcher. That wasn't something he'd remembered. But he has no doubt that it's true; Zelda wouldn't be wrong about this sort of thing.
no subject
"You guys cook lizards!? I have a friend who's a lizard!"
no subject
However, it's also difficult to imagine being friends with a lizards back home. They really don't do much besides hide in the grass or rest on the rocks.
No, she's really at a loss for words here as there's very little she can say to provide reassurance.
no subject
Although. Did lizalfos count as people? Link didn't cook them, but he did sometimes use things like their tails or talons to make elixirs...
"...Or monsters," he adds. Just to clarify.
no subject
Anyway, a mischievous grin makes it's way onto Sonic's face while Zelda fumbles, but Link's here with the recovery!
"It's fine, it's fine, I'm kidding! I mean, I do have a friend who's a lizard- chameleon, specifically, but I know that people and animals work differently on other worlds."
He's just here to cause trouble, sorry Zelda.
no subject
Well, he seems to be a pretty easy going person.
"Still, I'm sure it was quite jarring to hear about. We'll be more sensitive in the future."
no subject
But he doesn't argue against her. Just sends a faintly confused frown in her direction, and says nothing.
no subject
Would a hedgehog snack even be worth the trouble of getting past the quills?
no subject
no subject
And Sonic was also right about another thing - the quills. That would make them rather awkward to cook.
no subject
A world without hedgehogs? Unthinkable! It's probably for the best, though. It sounds liek these two would probably try to make some kinda spikey butt potion out of them.
no subject
"We shall have to take your word for it." Zelda offers a small smile.
