“ What I want is answers, so start talking. ”

The Gerudo makes a face at that--likely some combination of a frown and a sneer.

"You are not the first to attempt to get answers from me," He says, the fingers of one hand gripping tightly at the carved stone he rested upon. With a slight push, he stands, and both arms then cross over his chest, burning amber staring down into crystalline blue.

"You will not be the last."

There is a beat of silence, as the King listens, a few different emotions flashing in his mind.

When he senses no deception from the blond across from him, Ganondorf makes a noise like a hum, and relaxes his posture, settling more elegantly back into his throne.

"If I may ask," He says, lifting a brow. "Who are you, that you speak on behalf of the Princess? Do you have a missive? Something of authenticity, so that I may trust your word."

« I doubt the others were as stubborn and hard-headed as I am. » Link signs before placing his hands on his hips, looking back to the Gerudo King. He's not fazed by the other man's height - he's faced bigger monsters.

"I'm going to ask questions, on behalf of Princess Zelda, and I will get answers for her." As is frequently the case when Link speaks, rather than signs, his voice remains quiet, steady, with a scratch in his throat from how little he generally speaks. "We seek only to re-establish old alliances."

9 & 17

@dutifulsilence

9. is your muse monogamous or polyamorous? would they be interested in a polyamorous relationship?

17 was just answered!

9: He has no strict opinions on this. Were he to enter a relationship with someone monogamous, he wouldn't seek anything outside of them. If he were with someone polyamorous, he would accept other partners as well. Communication is the important part, and as long as all parties are happy, so is he.

Embassy from the Princess of Hyrule? Now that was an interesting notion; And yet, after the years of terse communication and outright silence from both sides, it would be in poor taste to not accept.

A guard would step forward to transport the case from the knight to the King, and once he had it in his hands, he read over the contents of the letter.

One could only hope this Princess had more sense about her than her Father.

"I see," The Gerudo King nodded, as he carefully returned that letter its pouch, chewing at the inside of his cheek as he thought of what to do with this knowledge--and his newly stationed embassy.

"In that case, ser Knight; Welcome to our Kingdom. We'll have a room stationed for you here, within the palace, shortly. I ask if you are unsure of any of our customs to simply ask, and prevent awkward assumptions--But I can also assume that you are well read on these things, if your dear Princess Zelda has sent you in her stead. One of my servants can show you to your quarters... And I will speak with you personally after dinner, if that pleases you."

Link brought his arm up, fist resting at his heart and bowed lightly before reaching into the pouch he wore at his hip. "I am Link, champion and personal knight of Princess Zelda. She sends me as liaison."

From his pouch, he pulled a small, hard leather case. He stepped forward and presented it to the Gerudo King with a bow of his head. "Inside you'll find a letter from the Princess, detailing the arrangement she wishes - she asks that I be placed in your service for half a year to act as embassy."

[In a surprising turn of events...]

ooc ; some of these are bait, you'll know which ones

Send 📼 to see an early childhood memory of my muse’s!

"Vaa'hi!!" The young Gerudo calls, climbing into his Mothers' bed near frantically, unminding of their sleepy faces just conscious enough to reach for him. He dives into Peka's arms, and she holds and shushes him, petting the back of his head; Bosah sighs and lights a little candle, before drawing both of them into her chest.

"What's the matter, vivi?" Mother Peka says softly, her voice still rough with sleep--but it's tempered with her gentle hands, and the kisses she places at Ganon's hairline. He simply shakes his head; And when the bed dips further with the weight of his twin, Peka and Bosah exchange a look, one Mother holding each child.

"Nightmares again, ne vivi? Sav'oh-ru..."

send me a 🔥 and i'll tell you one thing my muse finds attractive about yours

"Ah, Link... What I find most attractive about you? Your eyes, truly. I believe you recieved my letter about them some time back; Yet I am pleased to tell you again of them. Crystalline, staring through any front or facade--I liken them to Vaa'hi t'sorra. They are storied, and reflect your every emotion...portals to the soul. More than that, the color is pleasing."

He's just going to walk right up to Ganon and drag him down to kiss him. Write him poetry about his eyes, will you? Long overdue kisses for Ganon.

It's certainly a long ways to be dragged--but you won't find Ganondorf complaining. Instead, he chuckles as he leans down where he's pulled to make the transition easier; And when their lips meet, he makes it even more accessible by wrapping his arms around Link's waist before picking up him. When they part, as the blond still needs air, he knows there is the hint of a grin at the corners of his lips.

"I am glad to see my prose appreciated.. Perhaps I will expend the energy more often."

He's a 10, but has yet to take me on a single date

"Hm. You'd never given me any further indication of wanting to be romanced; But consider your wishes heard."

What that means for the future, only he knows.

@dutifulsilence said: Link raises his hand somewhat meekly. "It was me."

The Gerudo lifts an elegant brow, as he folds down the top of the paper he's reading just enough to regard Link standing there.

"What was you?" He asks, sounding almost innocent; But the way he runs his tongue over his teeth is telling, and his eyes darken with the thoughts prevailing in his mind.

🕯️

send me 🕯️to hear my character's inner thoughts about your character.

"So often, I see both facets of his character. The younger him, yearning to break through, clinging to what joy he finds... And the weathered warrior, with the world upon his shoulders. They are both deserving of what rest he can grasp."

"....An odd inquiry, but I'm not one to judge one's fantasies."

"What if we were pre-destined enemies because of some ancient curse that continues to cycle throughout the centuries but we also kissed?"

"Naturally. What exactly do you have in mind?"

"What if we were pre-destined enemies because of some ancient curse that continues to cycle throughout the centuries but we also kissed?"

"Oh? Ruin the fun? No, no...not at all. That thrill of pulling each breathless word from your lungs, slowly, painfully admitted--that's the fun, for me. And if you're good... You get rewarded."
