This has happened before. I'm sure a it. I don't really remember it, but it happened... all the weird people... Hell, if you can't beat 'em.

Who wants pizza!?

[People can come by Azzip for pizza. Duo's frantically trying to make enough for everyone.]

[Shit. Duo wheezes and bends hover, holding his stomach. No matter how many times you get the shit beat out of, getting hit in the gut always knocks the wind out of you and getting hit in the nose always makes you cry. He backs up a little before he looks back up at her, wheezing.] You're a- guy- here-

[crystallinesong]

...Whaat? There's another one of me? Why are they always guys?! That's not fair at all! [Cue pouting.] No wonder our people all died. They're all boys!

[colony_brat]

[Always guys? That's weird. Of course he's a guy. Why's the chick so pissed? Fuck his stomach hurts. Damn she's cute when she pouts. He mans up and straightens up.] He's gotta girlfriend. That's a good thing, right? 'sides, if they were all as pretty as you, you guys woulda been unstoppable and then you coulda taken over the world.

Don't show pain, don't show pain. Man up for the pretty girl Sheikah. Damn, Sheik's a pretty girl.

[crystallinesong]

[Of course she's pretty! Why else would all the boys want to play with her?]

Sheikah take over? [Snort.] Not us. Everyone hates Sheikah.

[colony_brat]

We don't. Don't think there's anyone here who hates Sheik. I live with the guy, his girlfriend, and some other guys who don't hate 'im either.

[crystallinesong]

He's lucky then. Hyrule is horrible.

[colony_brat]

Wouldn't know, but doesn't sound like a lotta fun. You'll be popular here bein' that pretty, but people are gunna think you're Sheik unless ya show off that you're a girl.

[crystallinesong]

I am Sheik. That was my name before.

[colony_brat]

Yeah, that's gunna be even more confusin'. This is why Kam and Mak got different names, least from me, chickie. Can't believe you're a girl Sheik. Damn, he was pretty before, but just look at you.

[crystallinesong]

It's not my name anymore. I'm Spirit now.

[colony_brat]

Anymore? You're from Sheik's future? Thought he was gunna be...

[crystallinesong]

Very far in his future. He's a legendary hero for the Sheikahs when we come from.

[colony_brat]

Oh, so you're not really Sheik. You're just a girl Sheikah. [For some reason, that makes him feel a lot better and yet sad. There's still no hope for Sheik after he has to return the princess. Damn.]

[crystallinesong]

My grandmother named me after him. But then I met him, and he told me it wasn't a real name at all. So he gave me a new one.

[colony_brat]

[And we're back to a confused Duo blinking at her.] What? How could you have met him?

[crystallinesong]

Maybe he's a different Sheik than your Sheik, but I know all the other Sheiks I've met have all been from the Hyrule of my past. I don't know how it works either. Someone thinks it's funny to play with time too much and make a whole bunch of us.

[colony_brat]

... what are there bands of roving Sheik's runnin' around!?

[crystallinesong]

Not here. Not in the caves either, or even in that broken Hyrule, but that's where most of them were.

[colony_brat]

... but there are copies of Sheik just runnin' around?

[crystallinesong]

Yeah, in other places. Some are scary though. Like the one that has giant white wings. There's something wrong with him.

[colony_brat]

... [This is all really hard for Duo to deal with. There are other versions of his friend running around when his friend doesn't think he really exists in the first place. That's seriously, seriously weird.]

[crystallinesong]

[Poke. Poke. Pokepokepoke.] You okay in there?

[colony_brat]

[Duo waves his hands around to bat away her poking.] It's just weird ta think 'bout copies of my friend who's convinced he's not a "real person" or some other bullshit and ta be talkin' to a girl version of him. Okay, not a girl version of him, but I thought he was s'pposed ta be the last Sheikah.

[crystallinesong]

He can't be the last one. He's the Legendary Hero's guide from hundreds of years ago. Unless he's the only one left that didn't die once already.

[colony_brat]

... The more you talk, the less I understand what the hell is up with you guys. I thought he was the last. Beats the hell outta me.
