    Bookmarker's Notes

    If cc!JSchlatt’s lack of DreamSMP streams left you wanting for a first-person perspective and better understanding of his character, too, this is definitely a fic I recommend. Not incredibly long, but well-written and offers an interpretation of the character that aligns with and explains canon, and yet still balances a hyper-realistic blend of good and evil, fault and circumstance. Author captures the depressing resignation of watching a man dig his own grave perfectly.

    Summary

    “I mean, the kid is great and all– saved the day twice for Hylia’s sake– but If you’re going out that way,” he continues, only looking a little bit guilty about what he’s saying. “I really should warn you. That hero kid is a couple eggs short of a cuccoo nest, if you know what I mean.”

    “No,” A voice from just behind the other two heroes cuts in, making Hyrule almost jump out of his own skin. “I don’t know what you mean. Elaborate.”

    The two whirl around to face a Time who is doing what Hyrule thinks he might do even better than wield that massive sword he has strapped to his back; giving a neutral yet ultimately disapproving look to the man behind them.

    Bookmarker's Notes

    Exceptional character study/interpretation of Four and his dynamics, posing unique and interesting comparisons, plot developments, and challenges. The handling of character’s emotions and reactions especially is refreshingly authentic and down-to-earth.
