Malik, never much for words for not so obvious reasons, had thankfully had a relatively easy process of his trials for the MRC. He had a lacking in the voice department, and he even felt anxious to shout when fighting in front of others if he didn't know them. Voice wasn't what he was there for though, and that was probably the blessing. Malik was muscle, and a lot of it. He was a lot of Gerudo, and when enraged, he only got stronger and the shadowy claws that moved with his punches could be devastating.[break][break]

All he had to do now, was head back to the city, and finalize all that work. To get everything seen through. First though, there were several things bugging him. Firstly, the tale tell flashing rings of light in his eyes, and the strain in his muscle told him that, even on horse back, he should probably stay in Kakariko. He didn't need to go to the city with bad head pains and nothing to treat it.[break][break]

Secondly, he wondered idly how Phoebe had been doing. She had left to go handle something apparently, and the least he could do while passing into Kakariko was see if he couldn't find her to see how she was doing. The first step though, was finding her, but, in his confusion of wandering around the village, he just squinted against the red-orange light of sunset from some weird high up place he hadn't been before in Kakariko.[break][break]

"now wait a minute... this is not right..." He spoke to himself in an incredibly soft voice, finally able to say something now that people weren't around.

A new term had been imagined in the mind of Phoebe Arkwright...

It was called... 'Leisure Fever!' A state of being where leisure was all that one could ever do during a recovery period, and for one who loved her work, Phoebe experienced listlessness beyond her own conception.

With her arms still as injured as they were, she found it difficult to do anything remotely useful. At least her legs held no injury, and she thought to practice trading blows with those instead...

But, in the words of Lady Zaharie, "No strenuous movements while you recover!" And considering the passionate temperament of her elder, Phoebe was prone to obedience even in her absence.

Still, that wouldn't stop her from enjoying some light activity in hopes of taking her mind away from the tragedy the Gorons had sustained.

The girl sat cross-legged upon a jutting cliff below the eye-level of the Gerudo, overlooking Kakariko Village, with Goron City and Death Mountain just beyond it. She had made this her thinking spot, although it more or less devolved into bouts of depression.

Since her return from the mines, Phoebe was struck by the image of her Goron brother disappearing beneath the floor into a pool of magma while the walls caved in--walls she had destabilized from her own reckless ideas. Each time she remembered it, she felt her skin and spine tingle in guilt, and her heart would drop to her stomach. Subsequent thoughts began to pollute her mind with agony.

Dormagoro was Solveig's protege... he was to take on the next generation. With him gone... Solveig has to raise someone else. It's not as if he can just replace Dorma... but...

Phoebe sobbed, yet she restrained herself from wetting her arm bandages in tears.

I wish... I wish I had taken his place, then this whole mess wouldn't have happened.

Not so suddenly, there came the heavy crunches of gravel, and a quiet voice that could hardly overcome the sound of the gentle breeze.

"Now wait a minute... this is not right..."

Phoebe's ears flicked upward, and she quietly turned and poked her head over the edge of the cliff to look up at a familiar, towering figure.

"... M... Malik?"

His presence caused tears to flow at greater volume.

Malik didn't really have to wait long for something to happen after he spoke. He barely had the time to reach up and scratch at the soft cloth that he typically wore beneath his armor. Someone had poked their head up over the edge, startling him enough for his shoulders to jump with a quick gasp, immediately choking on what was likely spit.[break][break]

Mal thumped his chest a couple of times as he realized it was Phoebe, and not unlike him currently, had tears in her eyes. Though her eyes held a deep emotion, something that could equate to what he saw in his own mother's eyes when he finally opened his eyes after being out for what was, apparently, a long time.[break][break]

He moved towards Phoebe either way, silence now finding it's way back to him in the form of a lump in his throat as he tried to open his mouth to say her name back. Nah, not quite yet. Of course not. It took him a while just to speak to his own siblings. Instead he settled for kneeling his massive form close to the ledge, looking down at Phoebe with a questioning look on his face, hands facing her, palm up in a silent offer of help.

Ah. For someone of such stature, Malik was unexpectedly timid.

Phoebe sniffled as she reached up and clasped his fingers yet flinched from the sting on her muscles and withdrew them.

She gingerly flexed her phalanges and frowned, "S... sorry, chap, I would take your hand any time, but at the moment, they're a bit useless." With a small huff, she leaped up the step to where he stood. "I had a bad scrap in the Goron Mines, you see. A combination of superfluous indiscretion and a sore lack of judgment."

In an attempt to free her eyes of her tears, she shook her head side to side rapidly. Most of it flew off, but some still resided upon her cheeks.

"Bleh... anyway, what are you doing here in Kakariko?"

Malik blinked as Phoebe withdrew her arms, watching as she hopped on up to where they were. So she had hurt her arms pretty badly huh? Relatable. It happens when you have too much power, more than you expected and didn't train for. Reaching up, he rubbed the back of his head and motioned towards her arms, as if silently asking if she was ok.[break][break]

But she also asked what he was doing in Kakariko, so, with a light shrug, he stood up, flexing his arms. He had done the trials for the MRC out in the Eldin region, and this was where he was. Letting his arms down, he also motioned to her then.... giving up trying to talk with gestures, he reached down into the jacket pocket tied around his waist.[break][break]

He scribbled down real quick. "Tests were out here, and I was wondering how you were doing." and held it out towards her.

When Malik motioned toward her arms, Phoebe understood that much, but all the rest of his gestures were met with a quizzical tilt of the head.

Eventually, he would give up on charades and write his thoughts down.

"Ohh..." Phoebe nodded, "That's right! You were going through your initiation trial. How could I forget?" She instinctively slapped her cheek, then grunted as the pain shot through her hand. "Ouch... well, to be frank, I'm not quite as sunshine when we last met." She gingerly peeled away a bit of her arm bandage, revealing a dark bruise just beneath. "I, um... I hurt myself attempting to save a team of mine from certain death, but..."

She felt her stomach drop, and tears welled up as sorrow and shame returned to her.

"... I... I fudged it up, and now... now one of my b-best fr-fr-friends..."

The girl sat down and curled her arms over her legs, burying her face in her thighs.

Malik reached out and almost grabbed her hand when she slapped herself, as if he was thinking about scolding her for that but he didn't follow through with it and instead dropped his hand. He wished he could speak and make this whole ordeal easier. "Don't hit yourself for forgetting." he wrote out, then he listened to her story.[break][break]

He winced some when he looked down at her bruises, teal eye squinting at their appearance. Yeah, that looked painful. He wondered for a moment, if he had any of that medicine in his pouch. A salve he has to use on his arms after particularly violent fights. Even hard gardbraces couldn't protect him fully from his own strength at times, and the shock of all the punches, kicks and stomps thrown settled deep into his bones.[break][break]

But before he could think to offer, one of her best friends... ? Died? Was he dead? Hurt worse than her? She curled in on himself and Malik felt his heart drop into his stomach. He didn't know her well enough to know her but he knew well enough that she was usually a ball of sunshine. He also didn't know how to help too well. He didn't have his voice per say to tell her that it's ok, and she wasn't looking so he could write it out.[break][break]

With a nod of resolve to himself, he dropped the pad and pencil between his knees, leaning forward to tap Phoebe on the shoulder as a warning before dragging her into a hug. Loose enough she could pull away if she wanted to. This was really the best he could do. Hugs helped his brothers, sisters, cousins and everyone feel better. So maybe it'd help here, as much as it could, at least.

Phoebe felt the tap of his hand upon her shoulder, and as she turned her gaze up, she felt his gigantic arms wrap around her.

"M... Malik...!"

At first, she was surprised at this gesture of kindness, for only her missing guardian attempted to console her in this way. It happened much similarly after she had held a memorial for her late parents, in fact...

Even so, Phoebe was not against it. Thus the girl pressed hard into his chest and squeezed her eyelids tight. Sore and stinging as her arms were, she reached around his neck and let her anguish rip through the air.

"Buh... hic... BWAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA!!!"

With pitiful wails, Phoebe buried her face in his shoulder, drenching him with her ever-flowing tears. Every bit of raw emotion that she bottled up until now had finally made its way out into the world. Whatever pitiful noise could possibly be uttered was uttered, chokes and gasps along.

Phoebe broke out into sobs so Malik just sat there, occasionally patting her back with a massive hand since he couldn't exactly speak to console her. Maybe it was for the better. He felt his shoulder becoming more drenched by the second. Thankfully, his arms were relatively bare since he had no need to wear his gauntlets, and it made it considerably easier to hang onto her without fear of hurting her more.[break][break]

Since he couldn't speak though, he was stuck looking around to see if the wailing had called anyone up the cliff, thankfully, this was a windy enough space it'd be fine. He didn't know exactly how she would feel about being seen like this. God knows he'd die from embarrassment if someone saw him like that. Usually everyone expected the massive guy to be stalwart and relatively emotionless. Blinking, he looked down at Phoebe and pat her head a couple of times, ignoring the flashing lights still in the corners of his vision.[break][break]

he totally didn't almost mistake one of the lights for a keese....
