[Sheik will be waiting a little longer for things to calm down before he decides it's safe enough for the princess to wander about again. In spite of how the ship seems to be falling apart here and there, Sheik pays a visit to the temple. He's acquired notes on various parts of the ship that he may not share with others, but he is interested in ( Read more... )

!jak, cryptic sheik is cryptic, !haine, !erol, !hazar, this is not her, something foul is afoot, no one can protect her better, you're stupid; and your boat is stupid, !mimmi

Who are you and why do you have Zelda's communicator.

A common inquiry today.

[That's right. Sheik's going to pretend he never heard it.]

That doesn't answer my question.

I don't believe I owe you an explanation.

What did you do with her?

Did you hurt her?!

[Yes, Jak will hunt you down even in his current state, if he has to.]

[Sheik pauses. What is this? Why is he so...? Could he be...?]

Are you one of her guardians here? You seem disheartened by her absence.

Maybe I am.

["Guardian" is a strange way to put it, but he doesn't disagree.]

Then take my word as gospel when I say she is safe.

[He wants to know who you are, Jak, as badly as he wanted to know who Erol was. After all, you're close to his Zelda.]

Why should I take your word? I don't even know you.

[Yeah, he's surprisingly protective. Zelda's just too nice for him to sit back and let anyone hurt her.]

No one knows her better than I do. If you think you can somehow compare, then you will find yourself failing that aspect.

[He's caught onto this. Zelda hasn't said much on those she knows, likely to escape Sheik's chiding.]

[Jak's never been good at reading people. But that does make him pause. Is this guy Zelda's romantic interest?]

Don't hurt her.

[It's not a request.]

[As though he would. Hurting Zelda would be the same as hurting himself. This man seems to care about her. It's not a surprise. She's easy to care about. It's the naivety.]

Who are you to her?

[He cycles through the names silently, wondering which one this could be.]

A friend. A good friend.

[Sheik has gathered this. It's a total 'duh' moment.]

A name would be appropriate, boy.

[Well it is Jak. Don't set the bar too high, Sheik.]

Don't call me that.

... my name's Jak.

[Sheik pauses. Hm? What's this? Some form of...

Oh. This is delicious. Sheik will have to have words with a certain princess eventually.]

Ah. Him.
I see.
