Saber dashes into the square as the heavenly smell pulls him in. As he bursts through the crowd he stops on his heels, looking at the huge cake with watering eyes. "So...beautiful..." He mumbles, his eyes welling. Slowly, he steps towards Tingle and holds his hands out silently, his mouth agape.

OOC: God, I want to kill myself for making a post this short, but I have almost no time to post and don't want to miss the TP...sorry guys...

The cake, though being handed out by one such as Tingle, is quickly taken away by any and all people in the area and devoured in an instant. Their taste buds spark as the delicious piece of cake slides down their throat, and most walk away without a second thought as to what the sensation the cake bring might be.

Some, however, recognize the cake as what it truly is, a TINGLE-filled piece of heaven. New power can be felt emerging within all who eat the tasty treat, hopefully serving to prepare them for the trials of the next year as they continue to protect Hyrule from the dark fates that would befall it.

Amongst the cheery masses of party-goers and cake-lovers, a lone figure stood out from the crowd. This figure, while surely a head taller than most others, was not noticable through his appearance; in fact, he would've blended in quite nicely had it not been for his attitude. For out of all the many faces, his seemed to be the only one frowning.

Yes, Victor frowned, although he did love celebrations and entertainment of all kinds. What he absolutely detested was cake. It had happened the year before as well, when he had unenthusiasitcally taken a slice, more for its rumored power than for the taste.

"Cakes. Why'd it have to be cakes?"

The Bard took a reluctant step towards the knight who was handing out the cake and convinced himself to grab a slice, muttering his half-hearted thanks before moving away. Soon enough a hesitant spoonful hovered before his mouth, the moment of truth. Before he could change his mind, though, Victor quickly took the bite.

The slice had much the same taste as last years', so he wasn't any more disappointed. He managed to choke down the rest of the cake, all the time wishing it was a pie or some other pastry, but always finding another spoonful of cake instead. When he finished, he let out a soft "Bleh" before waiting for those familiar Tingles...

Hmm...What's' all this about? Raven pondered, seeing the large crowd in the Courtyard. As he drew closer he realised that it was that time again. Seeing the huge cake looming over the area whose size was only matched by the amount of people gathered around it, like ants to a mound of sugar. He watched as the slices were thrown and caught with great percision. This year he decided that he woulldn't take a slice from the guards he go about a more direct route.

He watched as the slice arced through the air and waiting for his chance leapt out of the crowd and grabbed the piece in flight, aided by a jump spell. His descent was to be another matter as he fell back down towards the throngs of people below. He couldn't risk being seen hovering in such a public place but instead slowed his descent so he could land on the shoulders of the people below without flooring them, and leapt from person to person until he was free of the crowd. He quickly ate the cake in no more than three bites. He then left as swiftly as he arrived, getting a sense that someone was watching him and not the obvious reasons.

In amongst the crowd stood a hooded figure who unlike all the rest was not paying any attention to the cake or the celebration. He was facing the direction that Raven had left watching intently until he left his sight. His pupils narrowed to resemble the eyes of a snake and there was intent in his eyes. He then turned and faded into the crowd.

Sovelis slowly aproched the slowly shrinking cake. "This is WAY to easy...free cake? There has to be a catch. Is Ganon gonna pop up out of the cake when I get some?" Sovelis asked as he took some cake.

link happily acepcpce the cake, and gives it to is sister.

Douglas, having recently left the Traveler's Hostel, walks into the North Castle Courtyard. Having not noticed any of the festivities before, he is somewhat startled, but quickly regain's his composure. Noticing the cake being given out, he reaches out for a slice, and begins eating. He mutters a word of thanks, then turns to see anything else he hadn't noticed.

OOC: I can't resist a little complicated inside joke.

IC: Screams ring out as a dark form seems to both fly and scuttle at lightning speed along the ground; it's a horrible leathery thing, literally all fingers and vampiric death. The crowds in the thing's path dive out of the way, while cocky children strain for a look at the monster, which sounds as if it's screaming from whatever vocal orifice it might have. It pauses for a split second to--you think--sniff out bearings, and you see that its skin appears to be sizzling slightly in the sun, which probably explains the agony. So why would a creature of the deep shadows--a floormaster!?--be out in the open?

The question is answered when the creature makes a final beeline for the cake. It swipes a large, man-sized hunk out, and to everyone's relief it claims no other victim. Within the space of five seconds the floormaster--or is it a wallmaster?--disappears with its quarry over a wall and into an alley, where the screaming fades. And then you hear it resume in loud spurts, as if it has been attacked by something or someone. And then the sound of scuttling.

---

Arco slides both sides of his dagger, which appears to be smoking (m?), along a tuft of moss on the ground, coloring it red. Quietly, he watches the remains of the creature--now four mini versions of floormaster--retreat into a dark crack between two buildings. He regards what it/they left behind for the space of several minutes, and then lifts the first finger of his right arm, which he holds above his head, and then swipes downwards in three or four tight arcs around the mound of cake. There is a squish, and then a perfectly carved slice of cake falls into the Bard's outstretched hand.

He eats it in a way that some might call girlish.

Kasei is walking alone in the celebration, he ditched denkou a while ago. He stops outside of a small pub, and frowns, noticing that there weren't many people inside. He picks up a nearby stick and draws a picture of a leaf in the dirt...once again thinking about his future on this world, he has already achieved immortality, what else was there to do? He thinks along these lines for several minuets, before finishing the picture and standing up, subsequently stepping on and ruining his rather poor drawing.

He starts walking again, and finds himself after a while being drawn in by a mesterious smell, the smell of cake! The rebel flame smiles. He follows the smell, and after a while comes across the source; the largest fricking cake he had ever seen! Mouth watering, Kasei approaches, only to see that tingle is the one handing out slices, and frowns...he doesn't exactly trust the wannabe fairy, but asks for a slice of cake anywhay, not exactly worrying about what poisons tingle could have mixed into the batter. He waits patiently for a slice, and when he recieves it, begins to dig in!

~Pyre walked passed Tingle and his little cake giving buisness without paying attention at first. He was busy, what with the fight between Tayro and Blank to look forward to in the Grand Tournament, it was impossible NOT to be excited. In fact, the hylian nearly completely missed the cake, but a quick glance to the edges of his vision brought him to a halt.

The ranger watched the strange sight for a moment before laughing and going forward. It looked like Tingle was handing out cake for the party goers. Most of the cake was taken already, but it didn't look like he was too late yet. He moved into line, and accepted a piece of desert from the strange little man.

Promptly lead by a combination of his growling stomach and a need for privacy, he headed towards a nearby inn, but found that it too was bustling with the packs of people that so plagued the entire city. Pyralin shrugged his annoyance away, found a table and started to eat. By the time he left the tavern, he was no longer so rushed. It was time to enjoy this festival.~

Xokorn, hungry from days of travelling, approaches the group of people, wondering what the commotion was about. Bunches of people were surrounding a small, green-clad man by a platter of cake. That was truly a rare sight to see for Xokorn, as cake was eaten only once in a blue moon for Sheikah people. He wanted to try it out. "Excuse me, sir. May I have some cake? I could use the energy for my travels." The small man smiled and quickly gave Xokorn his piece.

The piece sure was regal-looking, from what he could see. Puffy and dumped with frosting. He took a bite, and realized what he had been missing for the past twenty-five years; his taste buds were bursting from the flavor. After only a few seconds of swallowing, he felt withdrawal symptoms from the cake as if it were caffeine (OOC: Sorry, I didn't want to use the word drug. ), and he ate it all up as if it were going out of style.

"Thank you very much, sir. Truly delicious!" With that, Xokorn turned and went on his way. Little did he know that that would perhaps be the last time he would have cake crafted that perfectly.

As Stefan enters the town the first thing he notices is the giant ,delicious looking cake and the strange looking , middleage man , he then walks up to the big cake and ask tingle,"Can i have a piece?"
