fly, you fools!

"You're not part of the itinerary, Jonathan."

This is a long post but I stumbled upon it about 3 years ago and I’ve never forgotten it. I needed to reblog it because it’s one of the most beautiful things I’ve seen on this website.

This is what the Hero of Time deserves. He sacrificed so much to save Hyrule and Termina, and got so little in return. I’m gonna be honest, I cried just a bit near the end.

Sherwood is my favorite fair hands down. I've seen the Sky Kings show many times and it always delights. If I recall, that's Romeo and he is incredibly sassy and will not fly back into the mews until the incentive (ye olde mouse bits) meets his standards. 10/10 would recommend.

“Human-Steve! I have heard that today is the anniversary of your hatching! According to my human culture pamphlet, it is customary to set a sugary pastry on fire while chanting your species’ growth incantation and presenting sacrifices wrapped in shiny paper. I am afraid to ask, in case this ritual is sacred and this request therefor insensitive… but may I be allowed to participate? It sounds much more fascinating than molting.”

“Human Steve, I have read about your ritual dance called ‘The Hokey Pokey,’ performed mostly at mate-bonding celebrations after the guests reach an elevated level of intoxication. But Human Steve, how do I know WHICH left foot to put in, put out, and shake all about? I do not… Human Steve, why are you laughing?”

“Human-Steve, you are… you are eating, but it is not one of your ritual fueling times. Are you dying? Is everything alright? Have you not been receiving enough sustenance? Do I need to get you better things to eat? Human-Steve, why are you trying to hide that food?”

“Human-Steve, my research has informed me of a grave oversight in your care that I, as your companion, have made! Thus, I have gathered collections of fictional human literature to read aloud at the time of your bed. Which is more to your liking: “The Care and Keeping of Cacti” or “1001 Crossword Puzzles?” Human-Steve? Human-Steve, I am serious.“

that was the best possible tangent, thank you for this addition
