I can't go back to yesterday because I was a different person then
Who: Sola and Vatheon
When: The wee hours of the morning
Where: Plaza
Style: Brackets
Status: Open to all CR great and small!
[At first the Hylian doesn't recognize where he is.
There's a heavy and wild intake of breath as if he doesn't expect for his lungs to expand. He scrambles for the nearest cover, nearly bowling over a hapless towel vendor in the process. He merges into the shadow of a building, nothing visible aside from piercing red eyes as he finally pauses to take in his surroundings, tense and suspicious.
What had Link done? He'd thought he'd been done for, that Ganon's resurrection was a failure purely because again he hadn't been able to spill the hero's blood. And he'd had so much time to plan, to send minions and monsters after him all along, to observe and prepare. But maybe that had been the problem, he'd waited too long. He should have attacked at the beginning when he'd been- well, not weak, he'd still defeated the Demon King, but when Link had his guard down during the reconstruction...
Dark Link's train of thought grinds to a halt as he finally connects where he is, as the jumble of memories he'd ignored suddenly appearing in his mind in favor of adrenaline still surging from his life or death battle start to sort themselves out slowly. They're hardly finished, but he knows this place now. He recognizes it.
Still standing in the shadows but no longer a part of them, Dark Link just stares.
Vatheon.
Home.]

[He's quiet again, not expecting Laharl to understand but saying it anyway.]
I'm still going to try to be a good person again, but I'll still know what I did.
no subject
So deal with it. It couldn't've been that terrible by some standards anyway.
no subject
[So don't get any ideas about trying to make him your vassal again or whatever.]
no subject
[Sola, did you really think that wasn't going to happen?]
no subject
[It's not a threat, it's not angry, it's just a matter of fact statement of the way things are.]
no subject
[Cleaning Laharl's room, carrying his stuff up to the island during the flood... Laharl sees these as proof Sola accepted his position as vassal.]
no subject
[He starts walking away, back through the plaza and towards the forest. He needs time to think, time to figure out if he can really just slip back into his life here the way it was or if he's too stained to do so. Laharl's insistence on giving him things to do is actually heartening, nothing having really changed with him, but for everyone else...
Time will tell.]
