Team Edge: Earth Temple

[balladofgales.livejournal.com]

[Huh. One second in Garden, and the next second, back on his boat, sailing towards a very familiar looking island. On the edge of the boat sits a young Rito girl, looking somewhat anxious.

The King of Red Lions isn't exactly the largest boat in the world, though - he's kinda tiny, really. With so little space, it'll be a tricky transition for the others from Garden as Link slooowly clicks on to the fact they're heading towards the Earth Temple. Again.

Aw man, Redeads. Fun.]

[It had to be the ocean. While he was in werecat form. Tom doesn't know what's worse - the mere thought of water touching his fur or the slow rocking motion back and forth. Holding a paw over his mouth, he glances over at Link with an unamused look.

Who decided to let the kid navigate the ship?]

[A hand lurches over the side of the boat, clinging to the railing. Then another.]

[A moment later, Edge hauls himself over the railing to flop wetly onto the deck. It seems time compression hadn't put him down on the bot with perfect accuracy.]

[After a moment, he chokes out a raspy word.] Whyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyy...

[Meanwhile Botan finds this to be ~*~AWESOME~*~. 8D Sure it's kinda tiny, but the waves are so lovely.]

Oh, my~ Is this your boat, Link?

[balladofgales.livejournal.com]

My boat?

[]

No... this is my friend!

[Poor Edge. Tom can't help giving him a sympathetic look... but considering the guy's sobbing wet, the werekitty isn't stepping closer.

Especially once the ship starts talking. Of all the weird things that happened this month, that takes the cake.] ... Your guess is as good as mine, man. [Do ships even have genders?]

[flirtninja.livejournal.com]

What kind of ship is this? It can't even fly!

[Edge is cranky when wet. Don't take it too personally! Really!]

[notaferry.livejournal.com]

Friend...? Oh! It's sentient!

[Intrigued Botan is intrigued! ...and making a small face at Edge.]

The kind that sails on water, of course. As in not an airship.

It's okay! They don't have to come in with us. Right?

[]

Umm... this is the King of Red Lions! And this is Medli [] We're going to that island over there, where there's a big temple full of monsters, but I think everyone can stay outside where it's safe.

sorry guys; immediately tracking post now ;;

[werepanther]

[Where it's safe? Tom gives Link a clear "I don't think so" look. He can deal with sentient ships, talking birdgirls, and going to visit distant temples... but letting Link handle this on his own? No way.] Nuh-uh. We're going in there with you, kiddo.

[flirtninja.livejournal.com]

Whoa, hold on.

[He springs to his feat.]

We're definitely going in.

[notaferry.livejournal.com]

[Botan's expression turns to something a bit more serious.]

Link, we might be in your world, but we're still your instructors and if it's as dangerous as you say, you are definitely not going alone.

[And ... she acts a bit as if that is that, ignoring any protest.]

Now, then! What kind of monsters are we likely to face?

[balladofgales.livejournal.com]

Umm...

[]

Lots of stuff. There's redeads, poes, moblins, chuchus... that kind of thing. It's not a problem! I can fight all them, no problem!

[]

[werepanther]

[Wha---those all sound straight out of a video game, like the kind he used to play as a kid. They'd be fighting those? Tom shakes his head.]

Maybe not, but he's still our Cadet. Headmaster'd have our hides if he learned we didn't do anything to help.

[flirtninja.livejournal.com]

Hey, I WANT to go fight them. It sounds like a fun challenge, and I haven't had a chance to get some real fighting in since I got dumped in the Garden.

[He pats the hilt of Masamune reassuringly.]

Trust me, it'll be nothing compared to the Moon.

[notaferry.livejournal.com]

[Botan smiled sweetly at the Rito girl, her tone both understanding and reassuring.] That's rather good of him to do, dear. We don't doubt his skill -- though we really haven't seen it -- but we all met in another world and there he falls under our responsibility. That means while he's with us, the other world or not, we're still responsible for him.

[She shares a look with Tom, wondering about those creatures as well. Yusuke played plenty of games with similar sounding creatures... Though the word sounding similar to "goblin" made her think of the real life creatures in her world, as well.

Her expression changed to almost a sight as she glanced over at Edge, then back to Tom. Did he want to switch partners, this time?]

Now, Edge, don't underestimate what you don't know. We're new here and these creatures are foreign. Link, could you tell us more about them? Their powers and such?
