[Open] November log
WHO: Link and you!
WHERE: Temba, Sh'Ka, the Beach
WHAT: Link attempts to celebrate 'Halloween', searches for things Dustin left behind, and attempts to build a raft.
WHEN: Somewhere during November
WARNINGS: None so far
i. Treat or Treat?
One evening, as the people of Temba and Sh'Ka reside in their homes - wherever that may be - many will find that they suddenly have a pointy eared visitor. He hasn't bothered to knock, or make his presence known before entering. He's just walked - or climbed - right in without any hesitation.
Once inside, he'll find you. And then he'll hold out his hands a small package filled with small cakes, honeyed fruits, and candies.
"Treat," he says, as he presses the package towards you.
Link may have gotten a few of the details about how 'Halloween' was meant to work a little wrong. And also the date.
ii. Mementos from Dustin (cue Get Item sound effect)
Link missed Dustin.
The other teen had been grumpy. Constantly irritable. Downright unfriendly really, most of the time. And yet...Link had still liked him. He'd been a friend, even if Link doubted Dustin would ever admit that.
But Dustin was gone now. Link wasn't sure where. But Link felt...compelled, to try and do something to look after what Dustin left behind.
Most of it was under rubble. But Link was stubborn enough to shift all the debris and rubble that was once Dustin's workshop, and search some of Dustin's other hiding places. Not that Dustin had told Link where his hiding places were. But Link spent a lot of time climbing up the sides of buildings. You could see a lot, that way.
Eventually, Link's luck and stubbornness pays off. From within the rubble, he pulls free his prize - a large sack. Reaching inside, he pulls forth an exiting find - large volcanic rocks, and clippings from plants. He holds one of the rocks, making a soft noise of appreciation as he admires it's shiny surface. Treasure!
iii. Get the duct tape, we're building a raft
One day, while at the beach, Link looked out at the ocean. Looked at those islands, just barely visible off in the distance. And wondered, what's over there?
And of course, now that he'd wondered, he just had to find out.
Over a few days, Link could be seen pulling all sorts of things to the beach. Logs from trees he'd chopped down with the Master Sword when Zelda wasn't looking. Rope he's scrounged up. Large, massive leaves from the greenhouse.
When he starts using the rope to tie everything together, it won't be difficult at all for an observer to tell what Link's building: a raft.
[[ooc note: If you'd like your character to explore the islands with Link, feel free to have them express IC interest here! Alternatively, you can just let me know oocly that you'd like to get involved - PM, discord and plurk are all good. Once I know who's in and have the info from the mods, I'll put up a separate log for the actual exploration.]]

no subject
That was then, though. This is now - where Link just gives the Soldier a grateful nod when he lends his assistance. Now the logs are nice and still for Link, as he winds the rope around them to keep them nice and steady.
no subject
The logs are sturdy, if roughly hewn on their ends; his companion must have used that sword to hack them down. That couldn't be good for the blade! The Soldier knew the importance of keeping ones equipment in good shape. Maybe he could offer the use of his whetstone when they were done.
"What are your plans with the raft?" Well, maybe he'd just approach the idea after this.
no subject
Although maybe the fact that Link kept using it for things like cutting down trees was why it needed those rests in the first place…
“Want to see the islands,” Link says, as his eyes drift out towards the horizon. And they are visible, just barely, off in the distance - a tantalising mystery, waiting to be explored.
no subject
"Hmm," he replies with a quiet noise, and lets it go while he reaches for the next log laid out. A desire to explore is as good as anything. Probably better than a lot of things, honestly. Certainly it doesn't make the Soldier uncomfortable to talk about, and that's a point in its favor for sure.
"Think Tommy's been," he offers finally. "Don't know what he found there."
no subject
"I'll find out!" he says, as he wraps the rope around the next log, securing it with another not. And sure, perhaps he could also just go and ask Tommy what he found. But where was the fun in that? Better to just go, and find out for himself.
no subject
"Looking for anything in particular?" Supplies maybe; he had the impression that Link possessed a practical streak. Or maybe just information;little enough of that existed.
no subject
He could also sometimes accidentally blow himself up with his own bombs. So maybe he wasn't always practical.
As for what he's looking for, well, that's easy.
"Whatever's there!" he says breezily.
