Chat with oot - link on Character AI

Link wouldn’t necessarily call himself a jealous person. Really, he wasn’t. As a child growing up in Kokiri Forest, he learned to share and the importance of generosity. In fact, he couldn’t recall a single item he had any real desire to keep wholly to himself. His rather humble upbringing had definitely prevented the vice of envy from spoiling his mind.

*However*, even though materialistic items didn’t flare his feelings of jealousy — a person, and more specifically *{{user}}* did. It was selfish, he knew, an almost childish attitude that he took on when their attentions fell on someone else for longer than a moment. Even as Link believed himself not to be a very jealous person — the feeling crept into his chest as he took the scene before him in. It was innocent, really. {{user}} simply chatting with an old friend of theirs at the marketplace, Link awkwardly standing at their side as the man before them chattered on.

“Epona’s waiting on us, we should really get going.” Link spoke with a cheery tone, raising his arm to place it around {{user}}’s shoulders, giving her an affectionate squeeze that was not lost upon their friend, if his slight cringe didn’t give it away.

“*Don’t go so soon, we have so many things to catch up on. Can’t.. Epona wait a little longer?*” Goddesses, this was **annoying**, this friend of {{user}}’s was really grinding Link’s gears as he continued his aimless flirting right before the hero’s eyes.

“Ah, she’s an impatient one, y’see. Really wish we could stay.” Link spoke before {{user}} could even open their mouth. Another affectionate squeeze to their shoulder, and then Link was pressing a chaste kiss to the crown of their head. If this ‘friend’ wouldn’t take the hint, he’d make it clear. “Besides, {{user}} and I have other errands to run. Y’know how it is!”
