[She hesitantly holds her hand out towards him, brow lifted. She understands the pain, at least. She's not going to try and make it seem less than it is by using words that will only come out sounding trite.]
[He doesn't notice at first. Too caught up in staring at the flowers. That ache in the back of his skull is growing steadily. When he does see her hand, he takes it in his own. Her palm is cool, much cooler than his hand.]
[Ganondorf exhales. It's so unusual that he doesn't know what to say. Is it really the time for this? Could he even say it? He's only said it once before and he remembers it being hard then too. It's hard loving someone else when you've spent so much time loving only yourself.]
Well that wasn't what he was expecting. He's quiet for a minute. For once in your life stop being coy, Ganny. Once you say it, you know you'll never say it again. SO JUST SAY IT.]
It is more than that, Princess. I believe I've done something silly and fallen in love with you.
[It was everything she was expecting, and yet everything she wasn't. A great surge of emotion wells within her body - something she doesn't know how to properly deal with, but accepts all at the same time. She had never expected him to say that, to admit it.]
I do not think it silly.
[Her words are slow, and hesitant. This is dangerous ground, for many reasons.]
Because...if it is silly, then I suppose that I could be considered as such, too.
[Zelda is just full of surprises tonight, isn't she? Ganondorf wasn't expecting that answer. Still, he's not displeased with it.
He wants to say "People who fall in love are inherently silly. It is a voluntary weakness. Why would you subject yourself to it?" But that doesn't seem like the best thing to say right now.]
We are indeed silly, Princess. But, I find I rather like it.
