Hey Zelda, after what happened...are you going to be all right to compete in the tournament? 'Cause I can get someone to take your place. If you're still feeling weak then I'm not going to have you fight and make it worse..!

That is what I meant, yes.

[She waits while he is silent, sensing he has more to say than several broken sentences. When he finally does, her response is a surprised one.]

...Why not?

I just don't see why anyone would...like me like that. I'm not good looking and I'm not exactly what humans would call "Prince Charming". And you...you're...beautiful and nice and strong. You could have anyone you want. I don't understand why you'd want...someone like me.

I do not see why I would not care for you in such a way. Also, I am not human. [She almost sounds amused, and probably would were she not so flustered.]

Well, now you know. The information is yours to do with as you please.

I still don't see why you would care for me like that...! [He's incredibly flustered as well - his usual defences are dropping.]

...I don't...I don't know what to do.

[She's hesitating; she feels extremely bad for putting him on the spot.]

I did not wish to cause you embarrassment of any sort. I...do not expect you to do anything. You do not have to do anything.

But shouldn't I? I thought admitting feelings like that is a big deal. You really don't expect me to do anything about it?

[He makes a sound as if he's about to say something else, but he stops and grumbles to himself. There are some curses mixed in their, but the only person they're addressed to is him.]

I thought liking Lilia was confusing enough...

I suppose...it is a big deal for me. But no, I do not expect you to do anything about it. It was just...information I wanted you to know. [In case she never sees you again. She doesn't quite understand his last statement, it sounded as though he was mumbled.]

...I...did not catch that.

Oh. I just said that I thought liking Lilia was confusing enough.

[Darc is so, so grateful that his post is locked - especially given what he says after a moment of pause.]

Well...I'll just say this. I do...I do care about you. I don't know what kind of care it is. But it's there, all right? I wouldn't be so damn worried about you stuck in that tower if I didn't. I've lost enough people in my life...!

...Don't tell anyone I said any of that.

[Growls] I probably sound like an idiot.

You do not sound foolish. I would think that out of the two of us, I would be the one looking quite the fool right now. [Her voice sounds wry, and slightly amused.]

I will not tell anyone what you said. You do not have to worry about me. [At all, because she doesn't think she has much time left anyway.]

[Very simply/matter-of-factly]...I don't think you sound foolish.

I do worry, for a different reason. [Long sigh - aaaand it's time for a strategic attempt to switch topics.] I also wanted to tell you I'm gonna save a special seat for you in the stands. It'll be next to the stairs and torch where I'll be watching.

Ah...[She pauses. She is extremely thankful that he can't see her.] Thank you.

[Zelda pauses at his subject change, relieved for it, really.]

Ah, that will be nice. Thank you, Darc.
