    Summary

    Zelda said he could ask her anything about his past upon learning how little he remembered. He had asked her only a few questions. What was the point of asking when knowing wouldn’t change anything?

    “Why didn’t you tell me?” He asked, the words shooting out of his mouth like air deflating from a balloon. He heard how accusatory his voice was, he knew how unfair the question was, but he couldn’t take back the words, no matter how badly he wanted to. Why would she have told him? When would she have told him? What would she have even said? He frowned in distaste at his own coarseness, a bitterness in his mouth that further upset his appetite.

    Zelda opened her mouth to defend herself, eyes damp, but no words came out. It hurt to look at her, so he looked away, blinking hard to try to clear his head.

    Her voice came softly, quaking and unsteady. “You didn’t ask.”

    Summary

    “Have you threatened every person in this castle?” She hissed. “Because I haven’t heard a word of my incompetence in three and a half weeks, and only after tricking some poor unfortunate footman into speaking halfway ill of me does he break down nearly into tears and beg me to please not tell you what he’s said.”

    A faint pink blushed onto the tips of his ears. He didn’t say anything, but he didn’t have to. It was an unwilling admission of guilt.

    “Would you prefer they gossip about you, Your Highness?” His eyes lifted back to hers only when he finished speaking, and for a single moment, she was frozen under his stare. He had asked in sincerity, without any disingenuousness.

    The audacity, to ask such a question. “No,” she said, her voice falling flat. Insulting, that a man who so rarely used his voice could so easily put her in her place with it. He hadn’t even really meant to.

    For just a moment, she stared at him, waiting for him to lord his victory over her as he had so well earned. But instead he just kept staring earnestly at her, as if it were her turn to disclose, as if she was the one holding out on him.

    Finally, blessedly, he spoke again. “What would you have me do instead?”

    Summary

    The house plunges into silence like a sword into stone. But even if she can't hear it call out to her, she can feel it, that pull through time, an itch to be at Link's side, totally, selfishly. Suddenly she realizes it's not power. It's something worse. And it's been something worse the whole time.
