Shaking Up zu'World

Either an unfortunate soul, or some sort of fool, to be caught in such a scenario with such a loud yell. Well... either way was no particular consequence, as the matter, not so surprisingly, seemed to already be decided. After all, it wasn't terribly often people would leave others to simply be injured, or perhaps worse. A little stop of some sort, then... though he couldn't help but get some inkling that this was going to be an annoying one.

Well, but some credit for surviving a trip down a waterfall. And the ever impulsive young Queen... well, so long as he was around, at least, he could certainly defer some of the worry and insistence from the others that they check on things first. Not only for the Queen herself's proven ability, but his just as well in case anything happened with the unfamiliar figure.

"With a build like this, I expect he probably feels quite fine yet," Revyn hummed, giving an arm a small poke with a tip of a tail as he himself remained seated nearby Marianne. "Though it does lead one to wonder if he was trying to brave the waterfall. He's managed it either way, I suppose," the Keaton suggested in turn, his voice carrying something of a tone similar to a shrug.

"Ahh, but perhaps I shall prepare some cold water just in case? That does tend to get people up and aware again rather quickly."

'Hypothermia'... well, he supposed it was little surprise the girl might worry about something like that. Still, it wasn't long before the man did get up, with... rather a flourish, really. Just as Revyn suggested, he was really quite fine, it appeared.

Though the Keaton could hardly help the inclination to make that less so after a moment. Though the sudden jump, and odd contraptions that appeared of the shadow were rather curious, his ears flicked and shoved down in annoyance when they became really quite loud. Plenty enough to draw an annoyed grumble from the old fox. If not for that detaill, he might have found this rather more amusing.

"Ahh, and just to add to that... do be mindful of the volume around creatures like myself, would you?" Revyn lightly grumbled. Letting the man know just who they were -- some of the most important figures of Hyrule -- seemed rather... unwise just as well, but what was done was done there.

"Well, but as the... 'babe', as you put it, says... you're just as well looking at the oldest and greatest trickster in all the land," he offered for his own part. Not that he expected it would mean anything... but pride and habits dictated.

Well, petulance aside... at least it was quieter, and he could worry less about his poor ears. Though this Zhong himself was still... loud, it was at least rather more bearable than the sudden, blaring music, curious contraptions though they otherwise were.

But a 'top secret' name, then, was it? Hah... that would only remain so for so long.

"Ahh, that?" he hummed slightly, seeming to muse on just what to say about things. This man... wasn't subtle. Not in the very least. So how much could be said while not getting anything to react, Revyn wondered...

"Well, to start, let us say people near to the castle are really rather... on edge, as you can see," he offered, with a small glance to Fiora. "So much poking and prodding for who someone 'truly' is that I don't blame anyone who simply doesn't wish to deal with it. Well, I really do think it's all quite silly, but shall we merely settle on the fact that you're a friend, if one with rather... unique habits?" he suggested, with something of a pointed look. Nothing more needed be said on the matter; not who he was, nor especially what he was. Whether someone so un-subtle would particularly catch that, the Keaton couldn't be terribly certain... but a temporary change of subject also wasn't off the proverbial books.

"That aside, though, perhaps something a bit less... recent to get one's mind off things?" he suggested in turn. "I did spend several centuries over in Termina, after all, never minding the whole incident of a mask trying to bring down the entire moon itself not terribly long ago... at least, by my standards, skewed though they are," he added, letting out an idle little yawn. "Though if it is to be a little story at all, I do wonder if drinks wouldn't go amiss?"

'Where he was from'... well, nice and vague, then. And... drinks of some manner, though Revyn couldn't say he recognized the name, for as little surprise as that was. Non-alcoholic, but well, no matter; probably wouldn't have been the greatest option around now anyway, though the next comment from this Zhong did get him at least a little curious.

Never mind, then, that he was not exactly... suited to the handling of either bottles or glasses. He was still skilled enough to adjust how he sat, balancing himself back a little with some aid from his tails and taking the glass carefully in two paws for a little drink. Perhaps not the healthiest option for him in particular, but he wasn't much known to worry about that sort of thing.

"Mm... it is often battles and conflict and the like, is it, that make the most common of stories?" the Keaton idly mused. "Though I might almost suggest a trip for alcohol; for as plentiful the amount of little stories and tales that I have may be, it is often rather fascinating hearing such from others," he suggested, with a little glance to Fiora and some of the best pleading eyes he could come up with... which was to say, probably not a very good attempt at them. Well... he doubted she'd approve of it regardless, nor especially be willing to go and retrieve some -- even with the Keaton himself still there for the Queen's protection, should it be needed -- but the thought was there all the same.

"Well, but for my own part... though I set it up, there's not a whole lot I can say for certain about the tale of Majora's mask. A dark god, a poor young one possessed by it through a simple mask... ah, and of course every such story must have a lone hero who stood through it, hmm?" he somewhat vaguely mused. "A 'hero' that yet now resides here -- though, as you say, their identity just as well is top secret," he suggested, putting on a slight smirk. "I do wonder how much detail I might be desired to go into while you receive a beating from our young Queen here, and my own little part in the tale, though."
