#forest ask

[loz-chainsofcorruption]

I don't see a quick link to your character asks, so I'm going to blindly say number 3 for all of them, (that you want to answer for, but definitely) including Nink

I'll add a link for my ask prompts tag to my pinned post 🫡

Would they fist-fight someone over the last of something they want at the store?

Boots: No. The opposite, if anything. Even if he picked it up first, if he saw someone else looking kinda disappointed bcuz they were gonna buy it, there's an 85% chance he'd give it to them.

Stray: Hm... Technically depends on who it is, what it is, and who is around. But either way, he doesn't exactly wanna get into a full fist fight bcuz the longer the fight the higher the chance he gets injured which is not useful, so he'd rather like, give em a surprise shove and then run for his life with the item in hand.

Poncho: Nah. Not worth it. He'd back off immediately.

Gerudo: Ack,,, he'd be tempted to if they were a jerk about it. Like if they reached for it at the same time and they didn't give way, he'd be SOOO tempted to snatch it up and walk off, but like. Ready to just give way because it's the good thing to do. But if they got snarky or demanding or rude before he could pull back and let them have it. Man. He'd be fighting to not start something LOL but he'd resist. He's got a reputation n all that, ugh. On the other hand, if it was his sister, they'd absolutely fight. The other one might not even actually want it, just saw how bad their sibling wanted it and knew they couldn't let that rest.

Jester: Oh no, that's beneath him. He'd distract them or trick them or do some other underhanded but non-violent thing, snatch it up, and slip out of there all speedy like.

Forest: Yippee gonna include him this time! Baby's first ask prompt question!! Yes. The answer is yes. If he thought he saw it first or thought they didn't deserve it for whatever reason his eight year old brain came up with, you bet he'd fight for it.

Nink: He watches them walk off with it. That person leaves the store and realizes the item has vanished. He is scurrying away, item in hand, and disappears around the corner. All they did was pay for it for him.

Moss 💚 for the question thing :D

questions from the forest 🍃

(ask game)

Moss 💚 how would you describe yourself?

thanks for the ask!

i'm not sure, that's a complicated one, how does one describe themselves? is it in the lens of how others would see me? or how I see myself? what DO I see myself as? what do others see?

i have many interests, i'm into forest-y creature-y aesthetics, i make sculptures and I paint sometimes!

interior design is my passion™

i guess i would describe myself as a complicated simple person, but i'm really just a litle creacher lol

antlers 🦌 - if you could change anything about your appearance without worrying about judgement, what would you change?

I'd change my nose, make it look a bit nicer. Is that worrying about appearance? 🤷‍♀️

fern 🌿 - if you were any kind of plant, which one would you be?

Ooh. Tricky. I think I'd be lavender. Smells nice, calming, purple.

frog 🐸 - name 3+ things you like about yourself 

I'm so bad at complimenting myself lol.

1. I like my hair? It's naturally two colours, and it looks nice in the sun.

2. I like my eyes, they're brown and if you look close enough there's gold flecks in them.

3. I like my singing voice.

Thanks for the ask!

64 for the Zeldas. If there are funny Link answers, feel free to add those. (But save this ask for later, I know you have stuff to do tomorrow 😳)

How good or bad is their sense of direction?

Boots' Zelda: I think pretty average? She's alright, she can manage, but she's not like spectacular or super speedy. She's good at keeping a level head though, so even if she got lost, she'd make a plan and go for it without panicking. Boots is kind of average too, but has a tendency to get more frustrated when he gets turned around, which just kinda makes him even worse lol

Crown: While her Link has a decent sense of direction (he might veer a little bit this way or that but ultimately head in the right direction), she's better at reading maps. And I'm not even talking about text as much as just like understanding it haha. He understands the basics - the cardinal directions and knowing which way he should head to get to whatever location, but the distance and stuff means nothing to him. He just knows Go That Direction and we'll get there eventually probably. Crown, on the other hand, struggles a bit more when it comes to the physical part of navigation, but the mapping part is easier. She does have a bit better memory for navigating dungeons though, actually. He gets a wee bit more confused when there's a lot of rooms set up in a complicated way, and looking at a map doesn't help him as much compared to Crown.

Love: It doesn't come naturally, but if she focuses, she's actually pretty good at remembering where she has and hasn't been, keeping track of landmarks, and so on. She needs to learn the actual navigation part beyond that, but once her Link teaches her, she's set. She's actually better than him at recognizing little details of similar looking rooms and remembering where they have and haven't been. But when it comes to bigger and broader navigation, long distances, he's better.

Queen: She memorizes places very quickly, but she's not accustomed to being in charge of actually getting places. She could absolutely get back to the place she came from though just because she'd remember the route taken and work it back. With a bit of learning, I think she'd be fine. Jester is surprisingly good at it. His brain is going a lot more than it might seem on the surface, and he's very spatially aware. He's kind of had to be his entire life.

Forest's Zelda: Unlike the previous one, I do have an answer for this one. (I wonder... If I should call her Castle or something... He's a child of the forest, and she's a child of the castle? Idk, I'll think on it. Opinions and suggestions always welcome for Zelda nicknames!) She doesn't have a very good sense of direction because she's never needed to exercise it... While her Link is the opposite. He might not know where he's going outside of the woods bcuz most of Hyrule is unfamiliar to him, but he can use the sun and stuff to navigate. I think she'll be a bit better by the end of their adventure since she'll have learned from Link though!

Bonus, not a Zelda, but... Sonya: I think she's pretty good! It might take her a moment to figure it out, but she could do it and it wouldn't take her ages. In a place where everything looks super similar, it might take her longer, but she'd manage. Better than her Link in an area like that, actually. He's just fine if he can see the sun, or if things look different across the board, though.

Wound up answering for (most of) their Links too just as a compare and contrast lol

And since I did that, Poncho is fantastic. Zero issue navigating whatsoever.

forest ask- thicket 🌳

questions from the forest 🍃 (ask game)

thicket 🌳: how close do you live to a forest? have you ever explored it?

Yes! even though i live in a big city, there are forest preserves and forested parks all around here less than an hours drive away!

me and my dad love nature walks and collecting random specimens, we carry ziplock plastic "specimen bags" for anything we might find, like clusters of brown mushrooms (he wanted to cook them but of course my mom said no way they might be poison! lol)

we find big sticks and chunks of wood, snail shells, leaves and plants, rocks and bones, and we like watching the animals!

one time we even caught some fish and also found an injured "red eared" turtle, we took him to the vet and then took him home and fed him turtle food from the aquarium pet store, they can live a long time and get HUGE!

so yes, there are forests near where i live and i love exploring them! i blame all the aesthetics i'm into now on me and my dad's field trips lol♡ 🍃🌳🌿

wildflowers for the forest asks

Thanks Anon!

wildflowers 💐 - how do you like to dress?

I'm an anxious human being, so anything that I think even remotely makes me look fat or ya know, weird, I won't wear. I like dresses, mostly because of the self-conscious thing, and skirts are cool too. I hardly ever wear jeans, I've worn them twice? In the last year. I really want a cloak, but that's wishful thinking. Hoodies are great, anything with a hood that I can hide behind is 👌
