Roland Barthes, A Lover's Discourse: Fragments (trans. Richard Howard) [transcript In ALT]

"Am I in love? - Yes. since I'm wailing." The other never waits. Sometimes I want to play the part of the one who doesn't wait; I try to busy myself elsewhere, to arrive late; but I always lose at this game: whatever I do, I find myself there, with nothing to do, punctual, even ahead of time. The lover's fatal identity is precisely: I am the one who waits.

a black and white illustration of link, a long haired elf in a tunic and sandals, lying in a sofa staring up into the air. next to him is a korok, a creature with a leaf for face and a small short legged body, sitting on a high chair taking notes. text reads "yes yes, you've found me - but have you found yourself?"

next Zelda game is just link trying therapy

I don't know what it's like

to not have deep emotions.

Even when I feel nothing,

I feel it completely
