Identity Crisis
Who: Dark Link and anyone who comes across him
Where: The park
When: January 5th, dusk
Status: Open
It hurts...
Not the park bench to the face, though that had dislocated his nose and given him two black eyes, causing him to look like a raccoon until he discovered Vatheon's version of a fairy's fountain, the coral.
No, he was fine now, physically, and he was safe here, camped out under the trees, even if his sword and shield had gone missing. What hurt was something else.
She knows everything. She knows about Hyrule, and magic, and everything I don't.
He fought to put the breaks on that train of thought, terrified of what lay around the next cognitive bend. But, as trains do, his thoughts rolled irrepressibly onward.
What if she's right? What if I'm not Link?
A long pause as his whole being fought tooth and nail to keep away from the looming question.
...if she's right, then what's the point of me?

But going down the "hey, I died!" path was not exactly a cheerful conversation topic, not to mention that talking about it too much made Ion remember that horrible feeling of nothingness. He hadn't been able to comprehend it when he first arrived in Vatheon, but he remembered it every night when he slept.
"What world are you from, Link?"
no subject
"I'm from Hyrule, but I've never really seen it. I want to, someday." He tilted his head to the side, regarding Ion from this new angle. "Why do you look so sad about your world? Is it because you can't get home?"
no subject
Ion looked at Link curiously. "You didn't see your world? Do you mean you were cooped up someplace? I have a friend who had to stay in his home for his whole life before we began our journey. He was really happy about seeing everything. I hope you can see your world, too."

The perfect plan!

"What do you mean, believe that you're you?" he asked carefully.

A pause then, and his expression fell to be reminded on his current predicament. He let go of Ion, hunching over a little.
"It's... kind of really super complicated and makes my head hurt, but... I'm Link, but there's another one that was here first. I mean, not here, but at home."
