Characters: AU Ghirahim and you!
Setting: Room 1-04, cafeteria, cathedral, graveyard, and then a general night prompt
Format: Actionspam, will match comments
Summary: The spirit of a holy sword is not happy about his situation.
Warnings: Standard Ghirahim warnings include being a creep, invading personal space, and unnecessary violence. Others will be added as they come up.

[Room 1-04, dormitory hallways]
[This is not what being sealed is like. Ghirahim knows what being sealed is like, and it does not involve waking up somewhere unknown in a tacky bodysuit.

He had been prepared for being sealed now that his role was done - was not happy about it, he could hardly imagine a fate more boring. But he'd been prepared, and all that was left to do was say his farewells to his master.

This was not the plan. And unusual complications to plans upset him, make him irritable.

Ghirahim doesn't intend to stay long in his room - just long enough to change out of the clothes he was given and into his normal attire. (He doesn't care if anyone is in the room to watch him do this.) Then, after that, he'll be out to explore the rest of the tower.

His priorities are simple: figure out what this place is, figure out if his master is here, see if something can die to let off steam.]


[Cafeteria, Floor 1]
[He takes the elevator, after finding out just how tall this tower is. He'll explore more on the way up, but the exit would of course be near the ground, if there is one.

Someone with a red collar gives him a bowl of oatmeal. It looks utterly bland at best. In fact, after he sits down and prods at it with a spoon before taking a small taste...]


This is disgusting. I won't have a single bite more of this trash.

[It's not actually that bad, but Ghirahim's standards are high. When you don't really need to eat, they tend to be.]

[Cathedral, Floor 13]
[There's no symbols of the goddess here, but it's obviously a place of worship nonetheless. Ghirahim stops his exploration here, if only to search the place.

What for, he's not sure. The goddess is not subtle in her signs. He refuses to do the interpretive dance part of translating messages - but he's always understood them. He may doubt Hylia's wisdom on many subjects, creating him and expecting him to turn out anything other than he was, but not knowing what she wants at all is...]


I wonder, if she isn't here at all, what would that make me?

[Without a hero to guide or a goddess to follow, he'd be without purpose. And it is difficult to imagine for him. So he keeps searching.]

[Graveyard, Floor 48]
[The sighting of his own name on a tombstone is what makes him pause on this floor. How strange. He's clearly alive, and in no need of a grave marker.

He might have overlooked that, but he spots a 'Link' on a nearby headstone. And when he goes to examine that one, he spots another grave with the same name.

Ghirahim searches the entire floor and counts two occasions of his name and ten of his master's. The numbers are what leave him at a loss. No man, not even the chosen hero, has died ten times. He knows that the markers mean something else, but he doesn't know what, and that leaves him profoundly unhappy.

What has happened to his master?

Ghirahim stays on this floor, sitting on a Link's tombstone, until darkness falls.]


[Anywhere, night]
[Night brings with it creatures meaning to kill anyone they sight.

Excellent. He was getting incredibly frustrated with this situation he's in, and there's nothing like bloodshed to cheer him up.

He slays monster after monster with daggers in the throat or his own swordplay. Most of them aren't challenging, and he toys with them before ending the game. It's not as fun when you can't see the fear in their eyes when they know they're outmatched, but it's something to keep him occupied.]

Cafeteria

[personal profile] convections 2014-01-10 03:55 am (UTC)(link)
Tell me about it, [Comes an annoyed-sounding voice from the next table over. Jenna looks over at Ghirahim and rolls her eyes before angrily jabbing her spoon at the goop in her bowl.

Even Garet could cook better than this and that was truly saying something.]
Whoever's in charge of our meals could really use some cooking lessons.
convections: (05 ♂ coal)

[personal profile] convections 2014-01-10 04:01 am (UTC)(link)
[That makes Jenna giggle, but in the interest of politeness, she hides the giggle behind one hand.]

If you manage to find whoever it is, let me know. I've got some words for them too.

[There's a hard glint in her eyes that suggests by words she means something much more violent.]

papillonmagique: (❋ I am way too strong)

Floor 50, night

[personal profile] papillonmagique 2014-01-10 04:21 am (UTC)(link)
[The ping of holy she got from this floor was almost enough to make Zoe turn away, already thinking of what other floor she should take out her stress on. Until she sees all the dead monsters and then she just blinks, and slinging her lance over her shoulders. She's pretty sure that guy feels holy, but...]

... Well, I see you are having fun.
papillonmagique: (❋ To just prove this,yeah,you'll see.)

[personal profile] papillonmagique 2014-01-10 04:33 am (UTC)(link)
Oh no, not at all. It would be hypocritical of me. [She stays where she is, though she gives a lazy twirl of her lance as she takes another look at the pile of monsters.] I would say 'welcome to the tower', but it is not exactly a place you want to be welcomed to.

myblueskies: (so surprised)

graveyard

[personal profile] myblueskies 2014-01-10 12:17 pm (UTC)(link)
[Every few weeks Romeo went to visit all his friends in the graveyard, it took a long time because there were so many of them. He had his hands full of drawings and stories he had made to put on the graves, and he blinked when he came upon the graves of all the Links and saw someone very familiar.] Mister Ghirahim?
myblueskies: (brave smiles)

[personal profile] myblueskies 2014-01-10 02:23 pm (UTC)(link)
[Romeo doesn't even blink, he is used to people he knows not recognising him] It must have been another mister Ghirahim I knew, sir, we shared a room. I'm Romeo!

sageprincess: (Unexpected developments)

Cathedral for max irony

[personal profile] sageprincess 2014-01-10 08:30 pm (UTC)(link)
[Zelda never spends much time here if she can help it. Too often it is used by the power-hungry and depraved for their plotting and ego-stroking. But today, as she passes by, she senses something... almost familiar. She doesn't dare hope it to be Fi - she's been gone far too long, and the holy power she senses is just subtly off besides - but she investigates anyway. Just in case.

She immediately regrets this decision the moment she steps onto the cathedral floor, however.

It has been... well over a year since she last saw the Demon Lord in any form, but the impression he left behind has always been just below the surface. Calling her 'goddess,' then nothing but a shell of her 'former self.' Ranting and raving about the defeat of his master, then holding her by her neck as he demands information about Ganondorf. Finding an ancient hero bleeding half to death, then finding his mutilated torso in her own bed with a condescending and threatening letter.

The long buried memories rush back in a torrent, leaving her frozen and wide-eyed as Ghirahim muses to himself. A single word is all she is able to voice.]


You...!

[He may be able to sense his goddess within her, though it's no longer the only divine power she holds. The Golden Goddess Nayru's Wisdom dwells within her as well.]
sageprincess: (Imperial bearing)

[personal profile] sageprincess 2014-01-11 05:17 am (UTC)(link)
[Run, her body tells her. And as she sees that grotesque grin she had hoped she would never need to again, she's so very tempted to listen. But it's been a long time since she last laid eyes on a version of the sword spirit before her, and she's grown up a lot since then. He may have done horrible things, but she's dived into the abyss again and again, and come back up alive every time. He may have taunted her with morbid displays, but she's seen worse by now.

Her heart races, her breath is short with panic, but she will not cower. After a moment of silent terror, her posture shifts; she draws herself up to her full height, chin high as she forces balled fists to her sides. Alarm and wariness are clear in her eyes, but her brow is lowered in determination.]


Princess Zelda will suffice. Am I to assume you are not the Demon Lord I am familiar with, or are you playing mind games with me, Ghirahim?

[The holy power she senses confuses and unsettles her, and she would prefer an answer sooner rather than later.]

notayoungkitten: (♖ and now that disco)

Graveyard

[personal profile] notayoungkitten 2014-01-13 12:41 am (UTC)(link)
[The woman did not come to the graveyard as much as she had in the past. She had long since accepted the fact that her son was not returning, and that Big Boss was likewise long gone.

The only thing that kept her going was the thought that Liquid would live in his own world if they were able to stop Ruana. In her own world, his fate had been sealed.

Coming to pay her respects to the one who was lost forever seemed the least she could do. When she spotted the lone figure, she approached him quietly, looking at the name.]


Someone you knew?
notayoungkitten: (♕ and looked off the edge)

[personal profile] notayoungkitten 2014-01-16 12:52 am (UTC)(link)
[She glances around at the various Links. In her time, she hadn't met any of them, but knew from her time around Ganondorf that he was an ally of Zelda's.

Someone else to distract Ganon worked well for her. Their alliance only went so far.]


People often come and go from this place. It's unfortunate there have been so many of your master.

[The soldier gently lays a hand on one of the headstones. It's not out of reverence, but there's respect just the same.]

These are a reminder of the people who were cast back to their worlds.

Graveyard

[personal profile] great_king_of_evil 2014-01-15 05:23 pm (UTC)(link)
[ After all this time spent in the tower, Ganondorf had come to expect weird stuff to happen on any floor, at any time. Yet they weren't really weird by his standards, and the surprise was all but gone after all of this time.

What was excruciatingly weird and surprising however, even by his standards, was to spot Ghirahim sitting on Link's grave. It was surprising to see Ghirahim of course, how long had he hoped for one of his most loyal servant in this tower to return? Weird to see him siting... On Link's grave. Yet again, Ghirahim had always been kind of strange.

It was good to see him back, however. Because of course, not for a second did he consider this could be another Ghirahim. ]


Mourning the loss of your best enemy?

...

[ Thee words alone are enough to indicate this is not the Ghirahim who once was in the tower. No matter, he could still be useful. Albeit the way the demon lord had instantly been on his guard upon seeing him...

Something felt wrong. ]


You were a resident of this tower once ago. [Ganondorf slowly turned around and looked at the tombstone with Ghirahim's name-- It was still there indeed, confirming this was another Ghirahim.] Or rather, one of your alternate self was.
