[To his own credit Link hadn't planned to join him like this so he didn't have time to give proper warning. And he's definitely going to stew in humiliation later for his own hard-trained reflexes failing him like that.
But fortunately the fall itself combined with running into Allen does make instinct kick in and he makes himself roll when they land, taking at least some of the weight and blunt impact off his companion when they crash. Link manages to roll himself over and onto his knees gingerly, trying to regain his bearings while doing a mental check-up on himself. A few scrapes and bruises but as far as he can tell nothing internal is damaged. Aside from his pride.]
Ugh...
[Well things are already off to a wonderful start. But he's not going to dwell on that right now, focusing instead on climbing off of Allen to try and survey him for any possible injuries.]
Walker, are you all right? Pull yourself together. [He really doesn't want to end up using the Atuuda because of his own incompetence.]
