After Link came back from his travels, it had been hard to convince Zelda that he didn't want to live in the castle. He had to talk about nostalgia, and about the house of his childhood. And he had high hopes that he had convinced her... right until Zelda brought up the fact that she didn't think he would fit in his tiny childhood house.

But he had managed to convince her. Somehow.

Now all he had to do was figure out how to get rid of Dark Link without anybody noticing he was there in the first place.

"Another round! On him!" shouted Dark to the drunken patrons of the bar, who were happy to cheer him for more free wine.

Link sighed. Alcohol had been the only way Dark had agreed to cover himself with a cloack so nobody would recognize him, but Link was running out of money fast, and he still had to find somewhere for the both of them to live until he could get rid of his shadow

Dark Link had come out of a mirror, so maybe he could use another mirror to seal him. He added that idea to his mental list of options. All the thinking and worrying was giving him a headache, and he was starting to accept the idea that he would need to build a house as far as possible from any villages or cities where they could hide from the world. But then, Dark would get bored soon, and he didn't want the episode with Epona to repeat. It had taken him ages to get the horrified horse back to shore.

"Link!" said Dark, latching on to Link's shoulder. He had gone through so many bottles of wine, Link had stopped counting "I know ye'r mad at me, but come on! Have fun! Ya need to get more social life, what's the point o' savin' the world if ya ain't gonna 'njoy it?"

Link grunted and looked at his own full cup of tea. They were leaving as soon as he finished.

He blinked, hadn't he said that before? Like, a couple tea cups ago?

He gave Dark an exasperated look.

"What? Another round 's another round for everyone!"

Link drank all of it and stood up. It was going to be a long, long night followed by long, long days.
