[Yaaaaaaaaaaawn.]

Firstly, I would like my prizes now.

I won them fair and square.

Secondly...Remy, how is that hex treating you? Tell me you've gotten some consultation for being my brave bait.

And...third? I'd bet you're glad you told me, hmm? Instead of waiting and waiting~

Midna!

[Kate jumps when she hears the voice. She was tired, exhausted, and hungry; she hadn't gotten up all day, not even to eat or other unmentionables. Scrambling to her feet, she knocked at Midna's door, and looked about for Link.]

The knocking is me ...

[wheres_my_puppy]

[Midna slips off the bed and opens the door, very naked. She blinks.]

That was fast.

[ttlyisabard]

[She couldn't help but look her over before her green eyes snapped back up to the taller woman's dark face.]

I was ... waiting for you ...

[She trembled lightly, hesitating to move forward. She wanted to hug her, but wasn't sure how Midna was taking the whole death thing.]

[wheres_my_puppy]

You haven't been taking care of yourself.

[It's not a question, it's an observation. The princess steps forward and cups Kate's cheek, strokes it. Touches her neck with her other hand.]

That wasn't very smart of you...

[The reprimand is half-hearted.]

[pimp_hat]

Guess it be a good t'ing I held on to dem fuh ja.

[wheres_my_puppy]

I'd say so.

I only found a feather--what else did I win?

[pimp_hat]

It be a pretty good haul from da both of dem.

How 'bout I come by and we can sort t'roo dis?

[wheres_my_puppy]

[She yawns again.]

I'll have to make it tomorrow. I've got too sad puppies a little too eager to see me home. They just won't leave me be.

By the by, that disappearing act of yours is impressive~

[ttlynotawizard]

I'll be fine in a few days. Less than pleasant experience I assure you.

Glad to see you're well. You did beautifully.

[wheres_my_puppy]

I didn't end so beautifully.

[She's ridiculously sour about that.]

But...

Hmm.

I've never shopped for a person under a hex before.

[ttlynotawizard]

I'll be fine miss Midna.

..but I do like presents.

[wheres_my_puppy]

[Giggle.]

Lose the 'Miss' when you address me and you might find something shiny at your door.

[scionofwisdom]

"Prizes"?

[wheres_my_puppy]

For killing Asad.

[scionofwisdom]

Ah...I see. He is one of the ones responsible for...the madness, correct?

[wheres_my_puppy]

Correct~

[oblique_wisdom]

[Zelda's relieved that Midna's okay, which... likely means Sheik better find a way to express it.]

It is good to see your return.

[wheres_my_puppy]

Is it?

You're the 'shadow' child, aren't you?

[Her voice has an old tint of nostalgia to it. She's heard of the Sheikah.]

[oblique_wisdom]

[Sheik's not sure how to gauge her words as a response. He regards them carefully, all the same.]

The shadow child. Is that the name I'm being given?

[wheres_my_puppy]

Perhaps.

But it's more than that.

I know what you are~
