[center][color=darkgreen][h3]Linkle[/h3][/color] [color=darkgreen][b] Level 5[/b][/color] - (26/50) + 2 [color=darkgreen][b]Location:[/b][/color] Lumbridge ~ Guild Hall [color=darkgreen][b]Word Count: 764 [/b][/color] [/center] [@Stekkmen] [hr] Linkle shoved open the doors of the guild hall and was immediately overcome with the smell of glorious food and the sound of lively conversation. She looked around the crowded room, trying to find the source of that aroma, and spotted the carts that had been wheeled in and realized to her horror they were already nearly half empty. That shouldn't have been a surprise given that she could only assume the Koopa Troop were big eaters all on their own, but her stomach gave a violent rumble that was more like the growl of a monster defending its kill. It hadn't had anything simce breakfast this morning and it wanted her to know that. "Oh hush, you." She said, patting on it with a closed fist as she walked inside with Ryu. "At least I actually made it to dinner this time." Linkle had no compunction about getting greedy when it came to the food. All she hoped was that this stuff was as good as Lon Lon Milk when it came mending injuries, and soothed the ache in her limbs as much as it did her stomach. To that end she took a little bit if everything, piling a group of those tofu blocks and some of those juicy looking fruit skewers onto a plate of those blue scaled lizard legs and topping the precarious pile with a scoop of that blue wiggly jelly that reminded her of a chu-chu. Unconcerned with the fact that this was all probably plated separately for a good reason, and she'd likely destroyed the unique flavors by combining them into this monstrosity, she nonetheless started eating and found it to be actually really good by her standards. Of course her standards were mostly scrambled eggs with extra bits thrown in at the spur of the moment for flavor. As she was eating her gaze was drawn to the big pile of loot they'd that had been gathers together at the big table, and though she was already satisfied with what she'd gotten today she couldn't help being curious. She wandered over to look it over. There was a weird glowing pair of arms, a few planks of wood, a strange can with that guy they'd freed on the roads face on it and...was that an entire set of armor for a horse? They didn't even own a horse, though maybe you could fit that onto a chochobo if you were creative about it. She'd left hers outside by the guild hall, right in front of the cuckoo enclosure. They'd stared at him with venom in their eyes, but she'd explained very clearly that he was a friend and as she'd left she'd heard alternating "kweeh?" and "cukoo" sounds being exchanged and could only hope that was going to lead to some sort of understanding. Of course, one particular object drew her attention not from its look, but from its overpowering smell. There a rancid stink coming from the pile that over powered even the scent of the dinner if you came close. She looked around and thought she spotted the problem, setting her plate down as she lifted up a white bottle. She gave it a whiff, gaged, and put the clearly spilled milk back down in disgust. "Nghaaaa." She blenched. "Who brough this in here? Hylia above, someone pawned a defective bottle off on you. This isn't supposed to happen." It was almost enough to make her lose her appetite. The though of the bottle reminded her of her own though. She reached into her shirts and pulled out the bottle of fish spirits she'd collected and set that gently glowing bottle down on the table as well. Satisfied, she turned to the room. "Anybody want some fish friends? We beat up a ton of fish today. It was while she was doing this that Agoston came up and greeted them, inquiring whether Linkle had vanquished Ryu to free him. "Nah." She replied to the centurion, shaking her head. "I got my butt kicked. I did manage to catch him in an arrow volley. Turned out that was enough." Now that she was getting a look at him up close she could see that man looked slightly different than he'd had this morning. "Hey, did you get a...?" She looked back at Ryu, then at Agoston, thought about how they'd know each other, and grinned. "Ohhhhhh! You to, huh? How did your fight go? Did you get hit with that big uppercut? He sent me so high with that I could have seen to rooftops."
