Who: Everyone! New Feathers especially.
What: New Feather welcome party!
When: Thursday, 5 pm.
Where: Battle Dome
Summary: IT'S A SUMMER PARTY
Rating: Worksafe, I reckon!
It's cold out there today, isn't it? Sure, it's not snowing but once you get into the Battle Dome, it'll be comfortably warmer. Warmer, not warm. Follow the tiny paper arrows and you'll probably find yourself in, well...summer!

It certainly looks convincing enough (a pool, a volleyball court, deck chairs, everything that you'd think you'd find at a pool party) and feels convincing enough (take off that coat! Aren't you hot?) so why not not step in? The barbecue's sizzling and there's some nice cold drinks at the cooler.

C'mon in, the water's awesome!

"Y-Yes." he smiles, looking honestly relieved to have been spared further explanations. Giles is dressed normally enough - maybe even a little formally, in defiance of the swimming expected at the party. He indicates his general and human state with one hand. "Um, yes, it's Giles. I just...wanted to point that out, before I had to leave."

"Is it getting close to nighttime? It went faster than I thought," she commented. Zelda looks at Giles carefully for a minute, committing his usual appearance to memory. "Don't let me keep you. I will recognize you in either form if I see you again. And please... call me Zelda."

"Oh, um, n-no." He shakes his head, before pulling a pocket watch out of his pocket and checking the time again. "I still have about, um, half an hour. It's just, um, these parties do tend to get a bit, um, a bit crowded, and I thought I'd take advantage of finding you while I could. Still. Sorry to bother you...Zelda."

"It is not a bother at all." She smiles pleasantly. "Any friend of Link's is a friend of mine. Thank you for watching over him all this time, truly."

...now Link, Link is a subject Giles will happily talk all day about, social anxiety or not. He returns the smile with a little less hesitation. "Th-Then, um, I suspect you'll find yourself ending up with more than a few friends. Link is, is quite well liked, around the village. Marvellous student, as well."

"Is that so? I didn't picture him as the studious type. He seems more hands on." Zelda looks a little shy when talking about Link. Link wasn't the only one of the pair that had built up an image in their mind of what the other should be like - Zelda did much the same with him.

"Oh, um, he is. Very much so. It's, it's music. Sorry, I wasn't clear."

Her reactions are enough for Giles to note, and despite himself he finds himself paying closer attention, curious despite himself.

"Oh, you teach music? I would love to hear you play!" Zelda leans forward, fully relaxing again. Music is (as Giles has probably noted with Sheik and Link) incredibly important in Hyrule.
