If this isn't already known, this was found by ZFG by accident on stream earlier. I am just uploading a reproduction for documentation.
Steps:
Have a timer, frozen or otherwise.
Have a non-sword item on B (bottle for example)
Enter a scene where the B button is disabled (Temp B 255)
Expire the timer either by waiting or with unfreezing text.
Trade item does not need to be in the slot but may be advantageous. In this video it was not in the slot.
The reason why this works is because when a non-sword item is on B, Temp B will be restored to B on timer expiry. Since Temp B is 255 (which is the id for a blank B button) when the B button is disabled, doing this in a scene where the B button is disabled will make you swordless upon expiry.

If only Walking While Talking was immediate, it would skip the cutscene with no void out.
Do not leave the room before Ruto disappears, otherwise the cutscene will not be considered watched as the Ruto actor will still be present in the room.")
