Waterfall Diving

"So anyway," Ruto said, turning away. "Let me show you around."

Zelda followed Ruto around the Domain, mind racing. How much did the Zora really know about Hylian nudity taboos? She was a princess, so it made since that she would have been taught more about other cultures, but Zelda couldn't imagine her paying attention during her education, even if naked Hylians ever did come up. It was more likely that Ruto had picked something up from smutty Hylian romance novels, and even that was far fetched.

Meanwhile, Ruto led her through the magnificent, luminescent caverns of her domain. Most of the tunnels had a stream of water running through them, making them slick, and some of the lakes had Zora children gleefully chasing after fish.

"And from here," Ruto said, leading her to the top of a waterfall, "you can see, well, a view."

"It's lovely," Zelda said, standing on the edge. And she meant it. The place was beautiful, as long as she wasn't distracted by … other things.

"Oh, and Zelda?" Ruto said from behind her. "Don't fall!" With that, Ruto pushed her, not enough to send her off the edge, but just enough to make her stomach lurch. She giggled at her own joke, and oddly enough put her arms around Zelda's waist in a surprisingly intimate position. "Don't worry, I'm not going to shove you off a waterfall like that."

"Um …" What did this mean? Body language often said more than words, but it didn't always translate well between cultures. Ruto had her arms around Zelda's waist, hands clasped near her navel, and Zelda could feel Ruto's large, soft breasts pressed against her back. Zelda wasn't sure what this meant among the Zoras, and for all she knew, Ruto was misinterpreting Hylian customs.

Then Ruto crossed whatever line she hadn't already, and moved her hands up under Zelda's bikini top and started fondling her breasts vigorously. Zelda gasped wordlessly (because how could she put it into words?) and Ruto giggled again.

"Oh, my," she said. "Your heart is beating like a … where to Hylians keep their hearts? Here? Here?" Her hands explored Zelda's body shamelessly, squeezing her breasts and brushing across her nipples. Her ministrations displaced Zelda's top, causing her to flash everyone in Zora's Domain who cared to look, and Zelda tried to convince herself (unsuccessfully) that anyone looking would be a Zora who wouldn't care about breasts.

Actually, what did breasts mean to a Zora? It was a sexual dimorphism, obviously; females had them, men did not. But they didn't have mammies and didn't breastfeed their young, so …

A question for another time. "Oh, here it is!" Ruto said, finding her racing heart. "Oh, wow, are you excited about something?"

Zelda swallowed. "No! No I'm not. That's just my resting heart rate."

"Oh, you are! If I didn't know any better, I'd say you were …"

I'm not turned on, I'm not turned on, I'm not turned on.

"… afraid of heights!" She laughed, and squeezed her breasts again. "Don't worry, Zelda, I won't let you fall."

"What? No I'm not." She was afraid of being half naked and fondled by a sexy fish woman, but she couldn't say that out loud.

"Oh, so you're afraid of drowning is it? Do you not even know how to swim?"

"I can swim just fine," Zelda said. Zora's viewed people who couldn't swim the same way as Hylians viewed people who wet themselves.

"Then I guess you have nothing to worry about!" And with that, contrary to her word, Ruto shoved her off the waterfall.
