[ poking around the iris idly. the vibes are curious. ]
Hey, do you think you could make your world in this game? Hyrule, right? [ infinite craft! ] It has Japan and mythical creatures already - seems a little unfair if it's all Earth stuff now that there's a whole multiverse thing happening.
[ kazuki calling for some diversity here. sidon's vibes are purely curious as he looks at the screen. ]
Maybe...? [ a teensy wobble of doubt. this place did not seem to be expecting a zora. he glances over the words that kazuki's managed to craft already. ] "Japan" is part of your world?
[ his feelings are already pleased though, even without results. it's very sweet that kazuki would try for his sake. ]
Hyrule is vast and varied, but if we are speaking of my home specifically—it is situated in part of an enormous spring. There are waterfalls, mountains... fish? [ which he's gotten, at least ] And plenty of Zora, of course.
So maybe we start with fish and waterfall...? I'm not sure what the combination for Zora would be, but I'm not sure if they even have humans in here, so.
[ there's no polite way to ask a person what they are so he will be not be doing that thanks ]
[ kazuki you are a good boy and even if sidon is not sensitive to these questions he would think this ]
We can try that! [ he'll just generate some more water for them to work with, though his vibes turn curious. ] What sort of words do you think describes humanity?
[ except waterfall and fish give us salmon, tch. ]
...Should've guessed that one.
[ that question makes him pause, though, frowning down at the screen. there's a complicated mix of emotions there, many of them not remotely positive. ]
I don't know. [ as he tries to smother all that negativity -- ] Monkeys, maybe?
anyway, it's hard not to catch the bad vibes, which he is learning to quietly accept even if they, inherently, feel unpleasant. he's more curious about them than anything. he moves some stuff around with a gentle tap of his pinky and gets poseidon which is not helpful but is interestingly specific. ]
Oh, I'm not familiar with monkeys either. [ humans are truly so mysterious!! ] Do you not like them?
[ we have a god, but no fish man. discrimination. ]
Uhhh. I don't know? I've only seen them in zoos. [ somewhere in another universe, kazuki suddenly remembers monkey dust. ] They're biological relatives to humans, though - evolved from similar ancestors.
Oh, so you're aware of your far-flung ancestors. Your history reaches back more clearly than ours. [ the rito are evolved from zora but he doesn't know that and also legend of zelda lore is (static timeline noises) ] Hm... in that case, perhaps we can try for 'humans'—or 'monkeys.' And for Hyrule... [ he taps at the salmon entry ] That one is familiar!
[ assuming kazuki lives in the music room, sidon is here, dropping in. hi buddy. the way he hadn't had a chance to check in on the other cyoa crew when they were all stuffing themselves into pods. ]
As long as everyone's healed up. [ he laughs a little but it's like that slightly nervous kind of laugh. ] Thanks, Sidon-san... I'm still learning, though. And I'm trying not to overdo it so I don't undo the healing or something.

Maybe...? [ a teensy wobble of doubt. this place did not seem to be expecting a zora. he glances over the words that kazuki's managed to craft already. ] "Japan" is part of your world?
no subject
That's the country I'm from, yeah. A couple of us from Earth are from Japan, apparently, just different versions of it.
What's your world like? Maybe we can make it work.
no subject
Perhaps so! Let's try it!

no subject
...Huh. So they have some things in common.
[ after trying a couple more combos, kazuki ends up with... unicorn! help. ]
I officially have no idea how this game works.
no subject
[ touches some stuff and ends up with a narwhal ]
What is happening!
[ confused but. just going with the flow. ]
no subject
[ fantasy worlds should have unicorns? ]
...Narwhals are real, though. What's up with this game?
[ let's try something else... now they have shark woohoo! ]
Do you have sharks in Hyrule?
no subject
he's trying to sort all these little nods into Real and Not Real but then they at least hit a common point. ]
We do have sharks! I sort of resemble one, don't I? [ at least he's aware. then, a beat of amusement. ] There is no real relation, though.
no subject
Yeah, kind of. So maybe if we combine human and shark, it would work...? That makes about as much sense as anything in this game.
no subject
Oh, there's an idea! Let's try it!
[ and the result is... mermaid? ]
Is that about right...?
no subject
On second thought, I kind of hate this game.

Kazuki! How are you feeling?
no subject
Normal, finally. I just got out of the pod, so I think I'm good to go now.
[ he looks at sidon, with his prosthetic ar, and some of the music notes turn to rests. ]
You and the others went in, too, right? I heard it was pretty bad for you guys.
no subject
It wasn't fun! But it sounds like it was more nonsensical than your own journey.
[ he'll come sit so he can be an audience member. ]
What's important is we made it through. And now—look at you! You're very talented.
