1st Excuse [audio // common]

[excuuusemehero]

Uuugh. What the heck just happened?

[He rubs the back of his head as he looks around the room.]

Huh. This sure doesn't look like Ganon's Evil Jar. Doesn't look like anywhere in the Underworld at all, for that matter. Oh, hey, what's this thing?

[Tap tap tap-]

Whoa!

Do you...know Link or--?

I--I mean, you're--

E-Everyone can--c-can--can read whatever you send.

Look, nevermind, y--you--you need to be careful. Stay in--i-in your room. This boat isn't safe, trust me.

[excuuusemehero]

'Course I know Link. I am Link. And don't worry about me, mister. I'm a hero! I face danger aaaall the time.

[Tappy tap tap.

Text: So you can read this to?]

[meinxxherz]

No, I--I'm sorry, Link, this--

I-It's not like your stuff back--back home. I-I know you don't have your sword and--

Just...believe me, fighting...w-what's dangerous in the ship ri-ight now will only make things worse. There's a little girl walking a--a-around. Her name's Jennifer and we all have to stay away from her.

[He sounds very stern on this.]

Stay off deck ten a---a-and decks 13 and 20. Don't linger i-in the buffet when you go to food--that's on deck 4. There, uh--I-I dunno if you know what sushi is, but it's on the top deck. The bears serving it a--a-are, uhm, trained so they're safe. Don't hurt 'em.

If--i-if you do meet Jennifer, don't attack her. That--th-that's orders from the crew and--a-and the crew might not tell us a lot, but what they do is always in our best interest and--a--and the truth. Trust me on that, I-I've been here for months.

[Though some of it's beginning to get hazy--freaking library books.]

[excuuusemehero]

Why would I be afraid of a little girl?

I don't think you understand, mister. I'm a professional hero. I can take care of myself just fine even without my sword.

It's just a little more work.

[meinxxherz]

Trust me, Link, I--I-I understand.

Would--w-would you try trusting me? Please?

I'm not--I-I'm--I'm--I'm not trying to insult you. I-I just--I know this place. I know what's going on here. I-I'd rather you stay safe a--a-after just arriving here.

[excuuusemehero]

Um, no offense, but I don't even know your name. How do I know you're not one of Ganon's minions?

[meinxxherz]

My na-ame's Herz. Ask around--I--I-I'm trustworthy, I promise.

The--Y-You're talking with the Major; she knows me.

[excuuusemehero]

Okay, wait, let me get this straight. You mean anything I say to this thing, any of these buttons I press-

[Have a few random keystrokes to punctuate this statement: lk za.]

-anyone can hear or see?

[That's the only explanation for how Herz could know who else he was talking to right now.]
