Reserves open at wishingscales, a LoZ: MM game

[moonchildren]

The lost ones... are coming. The storm... It brings them.

I... can hear them. You... Can you... hear them, too?

I wonder... What kind of... people they are?

Are they... kind? Or brave? Maybe wise... or powerful. Magic... Do these people... seek the power it holds?

Masks... Do they... like them? I wonder... if they like the masks... they wear.

I wonder... what they'll do.

Will they save us? Will they save themselves?

This game... Will they play?

[moonchildren]

Yes.

[pervertflea]

Tch!

You looking to pick a fight then, kid? 'Cause you can't go insulting someone like me and expect to get off scot-free!

[moonchildren]

We all... wear... masks.

I wonder... Is your anger... a mask, too?

[pervertflea]

Not everyone wears a mask y'know!

[... He's happy he didn't unsheathe Denkomaru at this point, but fine.

You little creepy twerp - you win.]

Look; 's not like I actually wear a mask or anything! What you see is really me - the artist Issun, and the Celestial Envoy! I just keep some other stuff tucked away, but doesn't everyone?

But it ain't like I'm wearin' a mask! I don't gotta put up a front, anymore!

I don't hide my own art, and I am who I am!

Creepy, nosy, little brat.

[moonchildren]

You threw away your mask?

[pervertflea]

Tossed it a while ago, kid.

Wearin' a mask is bad - sometimes the whole world needs ya to be who ya really are!

Heck, if I kept runnin' away from who I really am, my world would be covered in all sorts'a nastiness. The sun wouldn't be shinin', the plants would be witherin' all around, the water would muck up...
Y'know! Nastiness!

[A pause, as Issun actually stops to think about this.
What's with this kid's obsession with masks?]

... If you're wearin' a mask on top of that hunk of wood, it's probably best to toss it away, y'know.

[moonchildren]

So... you are... Courage.

My mask... is a mask... of seeing.

[pervertflea]

[... "You are Courage"? Can a guy be a whole virtue??]

A mask of seeing? The heck does that mean?

[moonchildren]

It is... a mask... of knowing.

[pervertflea]

... Huh.

That kinda seein'.

[He makes a little scoff like sound, before bending down to be face-to-mask with the kid.

... It's weird needing to do that, but his mun's giving him his Terminian form, so...]

The mask gives ya some kinda understandin' that others don't have, right?
