Seasons don't get angry...do they?

[dancingseasons]

[Din is alone on Hyrule Field, not far from the walls of the ranch. It's a sunny day, but she's about to change that. Not something she'd normally do, but she's never been quite this angry and she doesn't know how else to deal with the feeling.]

[She honestly isn't sure how she feels about Kafei, now. She liked him, she knew he liked her...

[A storm blowing up out of nothing isn't a totally foreign concept to him -- after all, several people have the Song of Storms at their disposal that he knows of -- but there's something... off about this one. It doesn't quite seem right for a Song-woven storm, but at the same time, he knows it can't be natural. He's been watching the sky, and he hasn't seen anything that looked like storm clouds.

[And even better, here he is out in the middle of the field with no shelter. That just damned well figures. He should warp somewhere drier, but he doesn't want to just yet.

[Dark stops, plants his fists on his hips, and glares daggers up at the cloudy sky.] Din damn it, why couldn't you stupid clouds have waited half a day?!

[dancingseasons]

[She is, despite her ire, amused by his choice of swear, which the earth spirits relate to her. She closes the distance between them, still dancing.]

Fancy seeing you here in the middle of a gale. I didn't know shadows liked the rain.

[darkmastersword]

[Oh, hello. Her feet are dancing not unlike the way fingers fly over an ocarina, and that explains the storm. He didn't know anyone could literally dance up a storm before.]

To be honest, I hate the rain. It's cold and it's wet, and those are the two things I hate the most. If I'd known this, I would picked somewhere else to wander around.

[dancingseasons]

Ah, I see.

[Not wanting him to be uncomfortable, she slows to a halt, then smoothly transitions into the Blessing of the Sun. The rain slows, and the clouds part slightly, allowing sunbeams to slip through the cracks.]

Sorry about that. I'm having a bit of a bad day...just venting my frustrations, if you will. I didn't mean for anyone else to feel it, though.

[darkmastersword]

[He sighs and looks up at the sky.]

If you need to vent, then vent. I can always warp somewhere drier.

[He crosses his arms. What is it with some people and their never-ending desire to make sure everyone but them is happy?]

Besides, it'd do you good to vent. Not good to keep that sort of thing inside, y'know. I've watched it eat people up inside.

[dancingseasons]

It's okay. I never can be very sad when I'm dancing, you know.

[It is, actually, okay. She should have just done this in the first place. She pirouettes around him.]

What brings you out here? Not come to pay me a visit, I gather, though it's nice to see you all the same.

[darkmastersword]

There's a difference between not being sad and actually venting frustration. [Though he doubts he's really going to get through to her, so whatever. He'll let it drop.]

Me? I just felt like wasting a day wandering around doing nothing. I do that sometimes. It helps me work off my bad moods. Most of the time, anyway.

[dancingseasons]

Sorry I interrupted that.

[She comes, finally, to a halt.]

I'm not used to venting frustration. I guess I'm really not used to having frustrations that need venting.

[darkmastersword]

Eh, there wouldn't be much point of wandering around if I wasn't willing to deal with the consequences. Don't worry about it.

[He gives her an odd look at that. Not used to having frustrations?]

Lucky you. You must be really laid-back if not much frustrates you. A lot frustrates me.

[dancingseasons]

I try to be. And yes...no question I'm lucky.

[She tries to figure out how to explain this without actually explaining it. She's coming up blank.]

I mean, I've been frustrated before, but not quite like this. What do you do, when you're frustrated?

[darkmastersword]

[He chuckles and smirks at that.]

Well, when I get frustrated, I destroy things. Sometimes I find something to set on fire. Other times I go hunt down some Moblins or something and hack them into pieces. Either way, I just burn off the frustration.

[He leans back slightly, folding his arms behind his head.]

That said... I don't think you're really the type to destroy things like that. You don't strike me as violent enough, y'know? Hmm.

[He rocks forward and back a few times, thinking. Oh, yeah, that's right.]

You could always try screaming. That would burn it off without being all destructive.

[dancingseasons]

[Din smiles, amused.]

No, I'm not a terribly destructive sort, you're right. And I've never been one for fighting, really, so hunting down a pack of monsters wouldn't quite work for me. Besides, I'm unarmed. The screaming might work, yes.

[She dances in place a bit, contemplating.]

I think maybe I'd best stick with dancing. It's what I do best. [With another smile:] I can teach you if you want.

[darkmastersword]

[He grins.]

Yeah, I get the feeling that you're more the kind to give those dagger-like glares when you get mad. Screaming's useful, sometimes.

Though I do have to mention that you don't need weapons to kill something. Still, I'm sure that's not your thing.

[Dancing, huh. Well, everyone's different and all, and it is fun to watch. Wait, did he hear that right?]

Me? Not to try and sound like I'm clumsy, 'cause I'm not, but I don't think I'm really the dancing type.

[dancingseasons]

Ah, well. No, I'm really not fond of killing...I'm more of a healer, to be honest. [She chuckles.] I don't often have cause to be angry, which is why I feel like I don't know what to do with the fact that I am. But I also don't want to take it out on people who don't deserve it, like you, so I'm sort of...suppressing it, in a way. I wonder if I do give a dagger glare.

[She thinks of Onox, and how she had loathed him.]

I can only think of one person who might answer that question, and he's dead. But not from my glaring, of course.

[darkmastersword]

Well, whether you get angry all the time or hardly ever, everyone gets mad. Suppressing it only helps for a little while. And again, if you want it to rain, have it rain. Like I said, I can always warp somewhere drier.

As for the dagger glare, well... somehow I think you probably would. You just strike me as the kind of person who'd do that kind of thing. You wouldn't be the first quiet, usually friendly person to have a glare as sharp as a sword.

[He gives her an odd look.] Really... Must've been some bad guy, since you don't really seem too bothered by that fact. Then I guess the only way I'll ever find out is to get you mad, huh? But I think you're already mad enough without my input.

[He laughs at that. Besides, he doesn't really know what it'd take to make her mad, even if he wanted to bug her.]

[dancingseasons]

[She smiles again, kindly. She likes him. The smile fades a bit, however, as she continues.]

He was, yes. General Onox was his name. He captured me and sealed me in a crystal so that I wouldn't interfere in his plans...though I think he had other reasons as well. He claimed I belonged to him, which I never did. [Her head lifts proudly at that.] The Link of my world was, happily, strong enough to defeat him -- with a little help from his friends -- and well, here I am.

[When he laughs, she laughs too, a little.]

I don't need any help, that's for sure. But I'm not easy to anger...you'd really have to try hard! And I don't think you would, somehow. You're nicer than you want people to realize.
