[Well - that sure is some commotion coming from downstairs, isn't it? And so early in the morning - it almost sounds like a lot of the guards are rushing down there to fight something.
Until one of them shouts "There it goes!", and they all move to let the guards chasing whatever it is through.

What they're chasing? A very confused dark being, who's only half material so he can float above the guards, holding onto a wound on his side that seems to be leaking even more darkness. At least he can't die from... "bleeding" to death?

He doesn't want to hurt the guards, though - so when he spots you, Zelda, he goes completely amorphous, flying over and hiding in your shadow; two little red eyes peeking up at you with confusion from his spot on the ground.

The guards rush over, armed and at the ready, but look completely concerned at what has just happened - the demon isn's possessing their princess, is it!?]

So most people portray Dark Link as a smug, sleazy asshole with no complications and a smooth running mouth.

While some of that is okay, I realized - that doesn't really make sense in my eyes! But it's much easier to just play my own interpretation of him than to run around and try to get others to agree with me; besides, their interpretation is their interpretation.

Much like this is mine!

I view him as very dark (duh) - his humor is gallows humor, he speaks with a low, demonic voice, and his preferred topics are ones most people shy away from. He is a smug asshole at times, and he can be sleazy - but he saves that for people he really knows. Which means, yes, he doesn't treat his friends well. At all.
He is also still a Courage bearer, technically - but in a very warped sense. When Courage is twisted, it becomes Bellicosity - the inclination to fight. Hot headedness, provacative, belligerent, warlike; however you put it, his courage makes him believe that he can take on literally anything, so he's always alright with letting an argument get out of hand.

However, one must remember that he is a shadow. He is soft spoken and not one to speak out of turn, surprisingly. While he is likely to jump you with his blade raised, he's not one to start an argument.

He is also very, very unstable. Unlike Link, of course. I wouldn't go so far as insane - but definitely on some sort of mental edge.
