#poor captain

Based on a real conversation.

"At ease..." Mini Lu Wars fic

I have no clue what at ease means 😭

"Hey, Captain. Here's your food—oh.." Hyrule paused as he saw Captain completely knocked out and against the tree. Snoring softly with his arms crossed in a sitting position.

"Man.. he's really out of it? And he's a light sleeper." Four hummed as he saw Captain. Hyrule handed the remaining food back to Wild to keep in his slate just in case Captain decided to wake up any time soon.

"Yeah. And he's like.. a huge light sleeper too. I remember walking around him and I stepped on a twig. A twig! And he woke up wide awake." Wind commented as he gulped down his food. Talking with his mouth filled.

"Poor guy is so paranoid all the time.." Sky sighed. "That must be exhausting. When was the last time he actually had a nice sleep?" Sky felt bad.

"That comes with being a knight and all." Time comments. Sipping the cup of water. Twilight raised a brow.

"Really?" Twilight asked with confusion. Mainly surprised that knights would have to be that alert at all times.

"Mhm. Back when I was in his timeline, he was much more paranoid than he is now. He acted like the moon was falling." Time nods as he leaned to the back.

"That must be hard, huh?" Four hummed. Looking at the sleeping hero again.

"To train so hard that it turns you into a light sleeper from just two words? Yeah. Sounds like torture." Wild agrees. Stirring the warm pot of food on the fire.

"Are you kidding? That sounds awful!" Sky shivers at the mere thought.

"What? You didn't go through all that knight training and stuff?" Legend asked with a skeptical look.

"Well.. yeah. We did. But like.. not to a point we would be so paranoid that we would turn into light sleepers. At least not for me." Sky shrugged. Scratching the back of his head. "I mean.. sure. I would get less sleep after my Zelda was in danger. But that didn't change my sleeping pattern all together." Sky sighed.

"Hmmm." Legend stared at Sky with a skeptical look. His hand on his chin. "And that stupid thing the knights do? You know.. the uhh.." Legend paused.

"At ease command?" Wild answers and Legend snapped his fingers.

"Yeah, that." Legend asked with curiosity.

"It's just an alert thing." Sky shrugged. "You'd get in position. That's all." Sky shrugged.

Wind smirked. "You think that would work on Captain?"

"What? If we all call at ease?" Hyrule asked. And Wind nodded excitedly.

"Yeah! Come on, let's try it!" Wind encouraged. Causing a soft laughter out of the chain.

"I don't know, Wind. He hasn't gotten a proper sleep in quite a while now." Sky said with worry. Looking at the hero again.

"Oh, come on. He can go back to sleep anyway!" Wind shrugs. Looking across the chain to see if they agree.

"Sure." Legend agreed. And soon after, everyone else agreed.

"Okay, on 3. Okay?" Wind said with excitement.

"1.." Everyone shifted their body to face the captain who was snoring with a bit of dried drool on his mouth.

"2.." Wild took out his slate quickly and pressed the camera button to get a picture out of this.

"3!"

"At ease!"

The chain collectively called out.

And the poor Captain's eyes shot open. As if he could hear the trumpets of his early morning again. He sprang up as if on instinct. He could've sworn he saw that same old tent he was forced to sleep in when he traveled across the broken Hyrule.

His body acted on it's on. Hands behind his back. Back straight. Legs apart. And chin high. It took him a hot minute to realize that he wasn't in his tent. But in a random forest.

He heard the laughter of the chain. Relaxing a bit as he saw the slate take pictures. Usually, he'd be upset.

But he was so tired he immediately lied back down and drifted off. Not even a smile or a reaction. Too tired to care.

"See? Told you he would've fallen asleep again!" Wind laughs to Sky.

I dreamed of a zombie apocalypse, I was saved and taken to a safe zone by two soldiers, they introduced themselves by name and rank, but I didn't remember their names, as well as almost all of their appearance, so I decided to reconstruct their approximate appearance

The saddest thing is that the Captain died at the end of the dream, he was burned by a sentient zombie

Today I would like to share the BBC radio drama version of Tintin and Captain's hilarious phone conversation in The Calculus Affair

Context: They're being recorded but Captain isn't aware, so Tintin's trying to change the convo to stop Captain from giving away their plan
