#she realized

         BLOOD . SO MUCH BLOOD EVERYWHERE . the gurgles of someone choking on their own blood an be heard as the head turns and meets a face she doesn’t recognize . it’s an older man with a sleazy moustache and theres the sticky red substance in it too . he’s dying . but the lips curl up , bringing the knife to their lips and licking it softly . slowly feet pull them out of the alley , eyes glancing in a closed shop window’s reflection . before anything else can happen eyes snap open and a scream is torn from her throat . 

         SHE SCREAMS UNTIL SHE CAN’T ANYMORE , letting it bubble into a sob and her body curl in on its self . she wants to puke up the blood she thought she’d digested . good she’s shaking as she tries to get up and falls to her knees , scrapping them harshly . the screams won’t stop , the spirits taunting her with them as she cries out and shakes her head . she can’t even breathe . oh god she can’t breathe . 

         THE HARSH COUGH THAT WRACKS HER BODY hurts much more than it should , sobs continuing to escape her . she barely notices the arms that wrap around her . god she can’t think it’s all too loud . she sinks into his , cries and sobs escaping her as she presses her face into his shoulder . ‘ i-i killed them- ’ oh god she killed them . ‘ i-i killed him bill- i-i- ’ she can barely speak shaking in his hold . ‘ i-i- can-can’t- ’ she can’t breathe , chest heaving as she chokes out another stop . oh god she killed them .

So, the Zora armor in botw doesn’t let you breathe under water, but I like to believe they DO have a few magic trinkets that do allow for that. It’s just that they are rare and magical and generally only the Royal Family has access so they can give them to, say, diplomats and the like. 

So natch, the second Mipha was old enough to get her tiny princess hands on that shit, she nicked it for Link to borrow. A: because then Link has to wear, like, the magical sparkle tiara of water-breathing or whatever and B: it’s been Link’s childhood depression that he could not breathe under water like his best friend.
