-Second- Inevitably Drawn Back

[shadowduality.livejournal.com]

[Sheik appears again on the Plane, this time at a full run, weapons drawn. He stops immediately, and looks around, slightly wary.]

Again. [A sigh and he puts his weapons away, then he sits down right where he is.] Let them come, for time now is clearly not as it was. I fail to understand my purpose here, but it seems I will get nowhere if I deny the existence of this place.

[A pause]

Is this sanctuary, or is that merely a facade?

((ooc: It's much safer to approach him... He's not going to be so much of a jackass this time around.))

...Are you in some sort of trouble?

[shadowduality.livejournal.com]

It is nothing I cannot handle.

[brokenamethysts.livejournal.com]

I hope so.

Typical day, then?

[shadowduality.livejournal.com]

If one chooses to call it that.

[brokenamethysts.livejournal.com]

[smiles ruefully] I think I know the feeling.

What's your name?

[shadowduality.livejournal.com]

[A pause]

...Sheik.

[brokenamethysts.livejournal.com]

Tsuzuki. [smiles and offers a hand]

Where do you come from? ...Those are really interesting clothes.

[shadowduality.livejournal.com]

[Glares at offered hand]

Hyrule.

[One word responses anyone?]

[brokenamethysts.livejournal.com]

[...awkwaaaaaard. Lets the hand fall with a nervous smile]

Can't say I've heard of it. I guess you come from another reality, then.

[shadowduality.livejournal.com]

I do not understand what you mean. "Reality" is one's perception of their state of being.

[brokenamethysts.livejournal.com]

Um. [scratches the back of his head] Does different "world" sound better then?

[shadowduality.livejournal.com]

...

A suitable enough term.

[brokenamethysts.livejournal.com]

Fair enough.

I think it's safe to say that you're...uh. Safe here. Others from your world usually can't follow.

[shadowduality.livejournal.com]

[Blank stare here. He doesn't really care about that]

[brokenamethysts.livejournal.com]

[stares back.]

Why were you running?

[shadowduality.livejournal.com]

[Stare changes to a mildly annoyed glare]

You ask too many questions.

[brokenamethysts.livejournal.com]

[laughs] I get told that a lot. It's a bad habit.

Still, I hope you're not in too much trouble. What do you do to make this a typical day?

[shadowduality.livejournal.com]

[Silence]

[brokenamethysts.livejournal.com]

[...]

You must have guests leaning on the doorbell back home.

[shadowduality.livejournal.com]

There is not time for that. All that wish to live have gone into hiding.

[brokenamethysts.livejournal.com]

...It's been a while since you've heard sarcasm, isn't it?

[shadowduality.livejournal.com]

[another blank stare.]

When I have done little more than recite old legends, it is not surprising in the least.

[brokenamethysts.livejournal.com]

...You need to get out more.

[shadowduality.livejournal.com]

I do not have the time.

[brokenamethysts.livejournal.com]

What're you doing that's so important?

[shadowduality.livejournal.com]

Nothing that concerns you.

[brokenamethysts.livejournal.com]

So why's it such a big deal to not tell me? It's not like I can tell anybody from your world.

[shadowduality.livejournal.com]

You do not need to know of my activities.

[brokenamethysts.livejournal.com]

Maybe not, but I'm still curious.
