Link: Yes

Samus: Do you want to moan it?

*Link comes up, standing over her*

Link: Hey.

Samus: Hey.

Link: You okay babe?

Samus: No.

Link: Okay.

*After a moment he lays down next to her, both of the sstaring at the sky.*

Samus: ...Do you ever... feel like... when people talk about you... they're talking about someone else?

Link: Honey, I'm a reincarnation of a long line of heroes, each legend surpassing the rest. It's basically guaranteed to come with imposter syndrome.

Samus: Heh. Yeah.

*There's another long moment of silence*

Samus: When people talk about me... about Samus Aran... it doesn't feel like me they're talking about. They always talk about me like- like I'm Doomguy, you know? Fearless, hyper-competent, unstoppable.

Link: And you don't feel like that?

Samus: *snorts* No. I- I'm scared. all the time. I don't know what I'm doing the other half. People die because I wasn't- wasn't good enough to- She shakes her head* I feel like I'm still that little girl, in the middle of a field of death, waiting to die.

Link, slowly taking her hand: I know how you feel.

Samus: Heh. You do. Don't you? ...Does it... ever get better?

Link: Heh. I'll let you know if it does.

Samus: Thanks.

So in other news, ADD medication is awesome...

This started life as a rehash of that Brooklyn 99 meme with Rosa. Basically Samus with a shortstack Link declaring that she’s only been his partner “for 5 tournaments, but if anything happened to him I’ll cancel myself and everyone in this room.”

I think I like it much better this way. 

Friend: Didn’t Wall-E come out in 2008?

Doomguy: *nods*

Link: Okay, so we need a plan to quickly and effectively take them all out before they spread from there

Samus: I have an idea

Link: We're not adding another planet to your body count, Starshine

Samus: I no longer have an idea

Link: We’re getting married, bitches!
