"At the very least, I can mask it easily," Link says before following her gaze to the seams. He frowns as he realizes, then says, "That one was more — difficult."

Lemme put it this way - least it ain't plate. That's a bitch and a half to fix, if you can at all.

Plus, metal makes for a really bad wound infectant. Worse than leather, at least.

Link shakes his head, his body slacking. "Always found it too heavy, as well. Never wanted to deal with it. That always suited me better," he said, gesturing towards the armor.

(~Crystal Memoria) Sorry about that. I had lunch with my sister.

Back in Japan, even the plate was made outta leather. Granted, it had more to do with the fact we had shit iron and shit-all iron, but still.

'Sides, in arms races, weapons will always beat armor in the end. It's just how it goes, so why waste perfectly good steel on armor that's gonna get crossbow'd or firearm'd to hell anyhow?

Mall (Aichi)

-WHOA! This really is faster... and Aichi can't help but be extremely nervous being in the air like this...-

-Thankfully Marcia gets him to the mall quickly enough.-

"T-Thanks, Marcia!"

-And he's got enough time to make it to Links Kaiba!-

"I'll see you later!"

-And so he hurries off to work as quickly as he can.-

-...Well, at least he enjoys his job even if it's difficult for him to deal with so many customers.-

Exactly! And even then, two knights in plate fighting is just gonna turn into two knights clumsily rolling around on the ground. It's not what they show in all those romantic stuff... which, unfortunately, takes precedent when it comes to all this Heroic Spirit crap.

Oh, it's just a thing from my world. Humans who get remembered in history can get summoned out as literal living legends. That's ignoring all the magical BS that would prolly confuse you, but that's the basic jist.

"Plenty of magical BS in my world confuses me already," he says with a shrug. "It's not the strangest thing I've heard or seen."

Eheh!

I'm one of these "Heroes." Sorta. I'm actually more like a villain, just cause of how the chips went down. An "Anti-Hero", if you may.

"...Hm."

He sticks his right hand back on the workbench and drums his fingers on it — the glowing Triforce brand in plain view.

He draws his hand back towards him.

"Oh no. It was — just a way of saying we're in similar boats, as far as what you said goes."

'Cept you're not dead. Heroic Spirits, for all their pomp and anti-exorcism measures, are fundamentally phantoms - so being dead is the first part of the job.

...Y'know, there's a guy just like you. He's not dead, but he's got something kinda like a Noble Phantasm - a legendary weapon of a hero.

But whereas his is a sword that's tens of thousands of years old, yours is like some sort of brand. But they're both triangle-y.

He crosses his arms. "Well, I wouldn't call him dumb. He's helped me through a lot, and I'm thankful for that. Words can't express it."

...Mm, to each their own. I don't hate him, I just find him... annoying. But he hasn't turned that holy sword on a villainess like me, so I guess that's a plus.

"Anti-hero, then villainess..." he says, more amused than not. "Just who are you, stranger?"
