[ by now he has gotten the sim room functional, and the locale is... a lovely, sunny beach. it's a little generic because he hasn't mastered the controls, but it's nice all the same. ]
Watch your step! [ unless he wants sand in his shoes. ] I'm told it isn't real, but it certainly feels that way!
No, just a beach! [ it doesn't exactly resemble the ones in hyrule that he's been to, so at least nothing in lanaryu. ] My home—the Zora's Domain—is hedged by blue mountains, and often overcast. It is more of a reservoir than an ocean.
[ he sounds slightly less like GIANT SHARK MAN and more like a prince for a second there. ]
I am still learning how to use it... I should like to see someplace more specific. But a beach will do! [ it is one of the default settings ] There are no genuine bodies of water here, you see!
[ miss hyrule you are so gorgeous. a sunny beach doesn't compare, even if it's still nice. ]
Yes, precisely. [ a few people have asked, so he's used to the expectation. ] My people—the Zora—we typically live on land, but in spaces that are occupied by water. Our city is couched within a giant spring. It is the best of both worlds! [ ... ] Though it is perhaps a bit wet for humans!
though he thinks dion is nice too :) scalie royal solidarity ]
Then I hope once we wrangle this machine, you might show me! [ he'd love to see how humans live by the coast, when they can't literally live and breathe in water. ] But no, I've never encountered humans before. Hylians seem quite similar to you? Their ears are a bit different.

My thanks for the warning. [ he looks around ] Is this your home?

But this is beautiful too, no?
no subject
Is that right?
[ it is extremely unbecoming of him but... dion toes off his boots and socks. the feet are OUT. ]
... It is truly difficult to believe that this is merely an illusion.
[ he can feel the grains of sand... ]

It's remarkable! I have to keep reminding myself it isn't real.
[ it actually makes sense that dion would mistake him for an illusion when stuff like this exists. ]
You can control it as well! With that odd wrist device. [ if he wants to change the channel at all. ]
no subject
Incredible. [ wow!! ] Did you choose this for a particular reason?
[ because someone asked you for a pool pc? ]

Oh? [ backstory? ] Where is it that you'd like to see?
no subject
My home, of course! [ lanaryu is so beautiful and he loves it a whole lot. ] Have you heard of the Zora's Domain? No one else here has, as of yet.
no subject
I haven't, no. [ Goes to sit next to him. ] You mentioned it was bordered by mountains and overcast, but not underwater?
no subject
Yes, precisely. [ a few people have asked, so he's used to the expectation. ] My people—the Zora—we typically live on land, but in spaces that are occupied by water. Our city is couched within a giant spring. It is the best of both worlds! [ ... ] Though it is perhaps a bit wet for humans!
What about you, my good sir?
no subject
I live on land, as most humans do. Though both the cities I called home were on the water, and much more beautiful for it.
[ hehe ]
Do you have humans in your land?

[ lil elf ears ]
But I have not ventured far into Hylian lands. My duties often keep me close to home.

You must have been well-loved by your people.
no subject
It'd be pompous of me to assume that. I love them, that much I know.
[ he loves the zora!!! even the annoying ones. ]
But any prince must feel the same way.
no subject
That is why I am the one telling you and not the other way around. [ smiles ] Often these are words we need heard from others.
no subject
nevermind that other stuff! his feelings INSTANTLY warm up and reach out, like a sunbeam. ]
You are very kind—Dion, was it? Know that I'll hold your words close to me.
no subject
[ hehe ]
no subject
Is that so? Then I will try and take it to heart!
[ he doesn't want to be the most beloved of the zora royalty, but he would like to be accepted regardless. ]
Did you work amongst nobility yourself? [ his profile kind of implies it... ]
