[ Her guilty gaze (why does she feel guilty ) flicks away from Link's before she notices the change in his. Focus, Zelda! There are more important things to be thinking about right now.
She's half-turning to head further into the Harvest when Link's question interrupts her mid motion. ]
Tea? [ She has to repeat the word before it registers correctly in her addled brain. Then she nods hastily. ] Y-Yes, please. You know the way I take it.
[ Did that come out commanding? It was supposed sound familiar. Added, hastily again: ] Thank you.
[ Nailed it. ]
I'll go find us somewhere to sit. [ Zelda gestures vaguely with one arm towards the seating area, then, after a moment wondering if he won't be able to find her, nods again and turns away.
Goddess, what is wrong with her? As Zelda heads towards an empty corner of the seating area, she picks up a throw that was draped over a chair and wraps it around her shoulders. (It's not stealing if she gives it back before she leaves the restaurant.) This isn't what she wants to be thinking about right now. They need to talk about what to do next. Her plan to swallow the stone has failed twice now. Does she need to try a different approach? But what? The two halves of her mind---the goal-oriented half and the easily distracted half---war for dominance in her mind as the princess takes a seat on a soft sofa close to a burning hearth. ]
