@paintmaid asked: “I-It’ll be just fine! You worry too much!”
“ I-I’d definitely feel more confident if you didn’t sound worried yourself...! ” This whole 'sneaking’ thing was very, very much out of Pit’s area of expertise - even beyond not knowing much about stealth, skipping around the rules was something Pit wasn’t used to doing at all. As much as he understood, Zelda wanted to go out and Hyrule, he’d long since understood that being cooped up in the castle was tiring... but the thought of sneaking out when the castle guards wouldn’t see was something that would’ve never fallen in under something he’d do to address it himself!
The two currently stopped behind a castle bush, Pit asks, “ I mean - I know you said you know what you’re doing and all, but... I mean, if they do catch us - you’re sure they’re not gonna, you know, call me a criminal or try and execute me or anything, right? I’d really rather not get on their bad side...! ” Not that he was at any risk of them finishing him - worst case he could easily be extracted or revived besides, but it would be hard to take his friend up on any future offers to see her home, to see Hyrule and its sights with her if the castle was going to deem her an enemy of the land or something. Maybe he was being paranoid? Hopefully? But then, humans - Hylians - were awfully defensive of their rulers...
Not that that’s something he’d understand.
