[ they are going to get so many fish species

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?

[teenrebellion]

[ 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.

[polliwog]

[ it's always monkey dust...

So it's some humans he doesn't like? ]

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!

[teenrebellion]

They only figured it out through a lot of research. It's not like it was just written down somewhere.

...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.

[polliwog]

Oh! Is that a horse?

[ touches some stuff and ends up with a narwhal ]

What is happening!

[ confused but. just going with the flow. ]

[teenrebellion]

It's mythical, but it's basically a horse with a horn on its forehead. I'm surprised you've got horses but not unicorns.

[ 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?

[polliwog]

[ that's because hyrule isn't fantasy, it's sooooo totally normal. it may have horse gods and giant horses but it's soooooooo normal.

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.

[teenrebellion]

[ huh. kazuki doesn't feel so bad about thinking it in that case. ]

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.

[polliwog]

[ it's hard not to see the similarities, even if he's very different from an actual shark. still, he's excited to see what the game comes up with. ]

Oh, there's an idea! Let's try it!

[ and the result is... mermaid? ]

Is that about right...?

[teenrebellion]

[ what. ]

On second thought, I kind of hate this game.
