comma flirting

a collection of letters between link and ravio; ravioli falling in love

Mr. Hero,

I’m writing to inform you that your rental on the Sand Rod has expired. My assistant, Sheerow, has come to collect this item, and it will be available for re-rental at 50 rupees.

Best,

Ravio

Ravio,

I’m in the middle of assfuck Desert Palace and writing this on your envelope. Enclosed is a purple rupee. I have the rod.

Link

Mr. Hero,

Sheerow is coming again to pick up my Hookshot. Please don’t wrestle with him this time.

Best,

Ravio

P.S. Please visit the shop for purchases you make.

Ravio,

I’ll be there tomorrow.

Link

Mr. Hero,

Don’t worry when you open this letter - no rentals are due - though I’m sure you will anyway. I’ve been meaning to ask this since they’ve been in season for a while, but you haven’t been around recently. Is it alright if I harvest your apples while you’re out? You can trust me not to sell them, heh.

Thanks,

Ravio

Ravio,

Go for it, I won’t be home anytime soon. Juicer’s in the basement. Sell them and I’ll kick you out.

Link

Mr. Hero,

Since my retirement, I’ve been moving away my tables and letting the actual house part of your house take over. I’m excited for you to see the place!

Your orchard produced beautiful apples, but there’s so many I’m not sure what to do with them. I’ve never seen so much fruit in my life! I’ve learned some baking recipes from the locals, so I’ve been trying a few of those. Let me know when you’re heading home soon so I can make pie!

Stay safe.

Ravio

Rav,

I’m fine; that gash from last month is just a scar now. I’m as safe as possible. I’m going home next week to pay you for that red potion even though you refuse.

Link

Link,

Don’t pay me back for that red potion. You were unconscious from blood loss.

Do come back home though, before Sheerow gets into the pie.

Ravio

Ravio,

I’m on my way right now. Note the purple rupee in this envelope.

Link

Mr. Hero,

You’re insufferable. I’ll see you soon.

Best,

Ravio

Ravio,

I’m writing this in case your stupid bird manages to find a portal before I do. Hylia knows he will. I miss your apple pie.

I hope Lorule’s doing okay. I hope your Triforce is actually back. It’s finicky. The Goddesses don’t like to fully honor wishes I wonder if you hold Courage.

I’m sorry. This is stupid. This is a stupid letter. You’re never getting this.

Link

I changed my mind I need to keep writing before I go insane

Zelda wants me to move into the castle. I don’t want to but every time I try to bring that up I feel like there’s sand in my throat. Like that one time at the Desert Palace. I still have that letter from you. I can’t believe I always wrote on the envelopes.

She’s officially queen now and says I should retire from being Hero and reveal my princehood to the public. Fuck, I never admitted that to anyone. It’s not like you’ll see this letter. Are you Hilda’s brother too? Nevermind.

I really, really hate the castle. Is that a selfish thing to think?

My uncle died there

I’m running out of parchment so I’m throwing this away. Goodnight, Ravio.

Ravio,

I guess you’ve become my diary now. Writing things out helps, I think.

Zelda and I fought today. I think I pissed her off. Who am I kidding. I pissed her off. I told her I’m already figurehead enough as the Hero and being a prince is too much shit for me to handle. She got real butthurt and almost sad? I don’t know. I’m bad at this shit. She kicked me out of the castle and said we could talk about it later. I don’t want to talk about it anymore.

I never actually told you about the brother thing, did I? We found out a while ago. My first adventure, I think. Been a while.

I know Lorule needs its Triforce but please don’t rely on it to solve everything because it doesn’t.

I need to get a notebook or something. Or just suck it up and buy more parchment in Kakariko. I’m harvesting more apples tomorrow because it helps me not to think. I miss your apple pie. I miss you. I miss not being alone in that house.

Maybe I’ll just write more letters. Oh well. Goodnight.

Link

Ravio,

Kakariko was out of parchment for a while so it’s been a month since I’ve written things down. Zelda and I worked out the prince thing, I guess, because we didn’t discuss it any more after that day. As it stands, I’m still the asshole who saved the country more than enough times.

I’ve been reading up on these legends about Heroes. I wonder how it was like for them.

Other than that it’s been boring. I decided to juice half the apples and sell the rest. You better show up soon so I don’t have to sell the next crop.

Zelda says there’s a disturbance by the Sacred Realm entrance. Almost like there’s a crack between worlds there. By the Goddesses, Ravio, what are you and Hilda doing? Just don’t be stupid and don’t get yourself killed.

Please.

Link

Link,

I can only imagine your embarrassment when this letter reaches you. The thought makes me giggle, which I know will make you more embarrassed, which makes me giggle more.

Sheerow flew through the crack as soon as Hilda and I opened it. He arrived back to me a few hours later with three envelopes that I don’t think you intended to send.

I miss making pie, and baking in general. Retirement didn’t last long after I returned home to my post serving Hilda. I hold Wisdom, not Courage, and the Triforce is doing wonders for Lorule. I’m sorry it hasn’t treated you well. You deserve better than that. I’m sorry about your uncle, too.

I’m proud you stood up for yourself. No, I’m not blood related to Hilda, as far as either of us know. But you’ve been living life fine without being a prince, you’ll continue to live fine without it. Just stay safe in your Hero business. And for the other Heroes, I don’t know. Lorule has no Heroes, other than you. I’m sure it wasn’t easy for them, though.

I’m sending Sheerow back with this letter before I officially leave Lorule with Hilda. We’ll both be in the castle. I’m sure Zelda has discovered the crack, but if you may, please tell her we’ll arriving with Lorulean soldiers and nobility. I’ll visit you as soon as possible. I miss you too.

Sincerely,

Ravio

Ravio, you bastard,

I will be at Hyrule Castle at the asscrack of dawn and if you aren’t there I will fight you.

Link

Dearest Link,

This letter hopefully won’t arrive to you via Sheerow as I’m leaving it in your pack. Inside is food, weapons, the rings you asked for, and other items that you needed. Thank Lolia your bag has an expansion charm, because even my amazing packing skills wouldn’t have cut it. For the love of the three, stay safe out there. It’s been months since you’ve last been on a journey.

As Lorule’s ambassador, I’ll be at the castle most days, but I’ll take care of the house and continue baking. Zelda has been teaching me recipes from the castle kitchens, and they’re quite lovely!

Also as Lorule’s ambassador, I request you send reports on the happenings in Hytopia so that we may bring sufficient aid. As Ravio, I need to know if you’re safe; you know how much I fret.

Please write.

Sincerely,

Ravio

Dear Ravio,

You’re the craziest worrywart I’ve met, and Queen Zelda is my sister. I’m happy to supply reports, both of Hytopia and my own health, but I promise you that I’m fine. This is either my sixth or seventh adventure. I genuinely lost count.

As the Hero of Legend, I report that Hytopia is suffering from a “fashion crisis”. The two others operating with me are sufficient in their help, and I am currently confident in our quest to save Princess Styla. I estimate six months, maximum, will be spent on this journey. I will reach out if foreign aid is needed.

As Link, I need you to know with utmost honesty that this place is fucking crazy. There are two bitches following me anywhere, and by the Goddesses are they amateurs, claiming to be the Hero of Legend. I’m so tired of them. The princess is crying and hiding around town because she’s wearing a fucking brown jumpsuit and she can’t take it off. I feel like I’m slowly losing my sanity as each day passes, but what else is new?

The fights are fine and easy. I’ve had to wear a skirt for the past week for complicated reasons, but I’ve found that this shit is actually practical. Who would’ve thought?

Write me back so I don’t go insane.

Link

Dearest Link,

I cannot deny that I’ve had to read your letter multiple times over to get through it without laughing. You never fail to take any boredom from my day, even when all I do is talk to nobility and worm my way through politics.

I’m not sure what to write about. I’ve tried apple turnovers for the first time, but they haven’t come out the best. I’m spending time with the castle’s baker and pastry chef whenever I can. I’m sure you’ll be happy once you’re home. Speaking of home, Sheerow’s starting to relieve himself in the house again. I don’t think he likes the bird cage, but I haven’t had time to fix this problem yet. Please give me your blessing to let him fly free again.

Stay sane,

Ravio

Dear Ravio,

Make that bird promise to stop shitting on my carpet and you have a deal.

I’ve had to wear more green in the past month than I’ve ever had to in my life - they made me dye my hair, for Goddess sakes - and I’m ready to never see that color again. Can you burn down the forest for me so the grass is brown? Don’t do that, Zelda will have our heads.

Apple turnovers aren’t too hard, I’m sure you’ll get it soon. Send one over if Sheerow can fly fast enough.

I’ll be home before year’s end.

Link

Dearest Link,

You’ll be pleased to hear that the forest is gone and we’ve both been banished to the Dark World.

I’m kidding. I’ve been discussing with Zelda on the prospect of me gaining Hyruleian citizenship, and Hilda says she requests you receive Loruleian citizenship as well, seeing as you’re our Hero. The process for both is very complicated and apparently the Queens can’t just write us down for both without backlash from nobility, enough that it won’t be worth it. I’ve been looking for the easiest ways, and including the benefits on tax, marriage ironically comes up. I’ll keep searching.

I got the turnover recipe down; Sheerow should be arriving with a package of them for you and your “hero” friends. Enjoy!

I’m glad you’ll be home soon, even though it’s only summer. Stay safe out there, as always.

Sincerely,

Ravio

Dear Ravio,

I don’t know Hyrulean law well but I think you can keep citizenship after divorce. I don’t know about you, but I personally don’t give a shit. We could marry for the benefits and if either of us sorry fucks finds someone, we divorce.

Link

P.S. Those were the best turnovers I’ve had in my life. Keep making them.

Dearest Link,

It’s a decade of marriage before citizenship becomes unconditional, so if you’re fine with that, I don’t mind either. I’m glad you liked the turnovers, I’ll send more once the orchard produces more apples. Also, how are you doing in Hytopia?

Sincerely,

Ravio

Dear Ravio,

I’ll be dead within the decade, so fuck it, let’s do it. I’m leaving a ring in the envelope. For my ego, please pretend like this is the best damn proposal you could have ever dreamed of.

Hytopia is doing well and Princess Styla is back to normal. I’m avoiding the ports and taking the scenic way home, so I’ll be back in two weeks.

Link

Dearest Link,

Don’t joke about that, please. I’m glad you’re on your way. I’ll see you soon.

Your proposal has had me swooning and I spent three days in recovery at the castle. On a real note, Zelda and Hilda are both confused and slightly furious at us. I believe we simply found a unique situation to this problem.

Sincerely,

Ravio

Rav,

I’m at Kakariko this morning to pick up bread. I didn’t want to wake you up. I should be back by noon.

Link

Link -

Emergency call from the castle, some monster invasion. I’m sure you’ll hear about it soon.

- Ravio

My Ravio,

Killing the monsters you had a meeting about yesterday, then Zelda wants me at the castle for wedding stuff. I’ll see you tonight.

Link

I have a dinner tonight so I’ll be gone when you get off work. Pie is in the oven for you. “My”?

- Ravio

We’re getting married, aren’t we?

Link

Link and Ravio,

I wish you the sincerest congratulations on your marriage, though the circumstances of it are definitely exploiting a loophole that I’d have half a mind to fix. Regardless, may you both be blessed with peaceful and long lives. My brother, I am so proud of you for how far you’ve come. My brother-in-law, you are an amazing friend, and I’m excited to be family with you.

Peace and prosperity for you both!

Sincerely,

Zelda

Ravio and Link,

I am amazed that this is happening, for multiple reasons. I suppose it is my fault for being surprised, however, knowing my advisor. Hero of Hyrule, I request you take care of Ravio; Ravio, I request you take care of Link. Perhaps your personalities are only compatible with each other after all.

Best wishes for you both,

Hilda

Link,

It’s been a week with no word from you, and I’m beginning to worry. I’m sending Sheerow off with this letter but I’m unsure if it’ll reach you, so if it does, I can only beg you to write back. These new monsters, the black-blooded ones, have been retreating some. Zelda is recruiting small forces of people to make them back off from towns, and it’s worked so far. We are all worried about you. Zelda and Hilda have been asking me where you are, and I don’t know how to explain that I don’t know.

I can only assume you’ve ended up in one of those portals they’ve emerged from. Your pack is missing, as well as some of your rings, armors, and gears. You left your extra pair of boots behind, I have them for you. I have your extra weapons, too. Please come back for them. Please come back.

I miss you. I hope you’re okay. Sheerow is pissing on the carpet again.

Yours,

Ravio

Dearest Ravio,

Time travel is fucking weird, so I have no idea when this’ll reach you. I’m fine. I’ve been pulled into another adventure, this time with my own kin. When the portals spit us out back home, I’ll sit down and have a long talk with you. We promised not to keep secrets from each other, remember? I trust you, but I have limited parchment so I can’t write it all down right now.

In summary, though, I’m with other Links from around history. I met my fucking descendant. It’s crazy. They call me Legend; there’s 9 of us. I’m the veteran, apparently.

I’m sorry this is short. I hope I’ll be home soon. I miss you. Tell Sheerow to stop shitting himself, and while you’re at it, tell Zelda to stop shitting herself too. I’ll be okay.

Yours,

Link

My dearest Link,

I’m relieved you’re alright. Zelda laughed when I passed on your message, and she’s in a better mood now. Hilda also seems relieved. I’m awaiting your coming home soon.

Your descendant? I expected those portals led to different dimensions, not across time. What is he like? I would consider you a veteran in your field, Link; you’ve saved more than 5 separate nations.

I made Sheerow promise not to piss on the carpet anymore, but I don’t think a bird will hold his word well, haha.

We all miss you. If When you and your traveling companions come by, I’ll be here to welcome you all. I’ll see you soon.

Yours,

Ravio

Dearest Ravio,

Stop worrying about me, damnit. The Goddess will keep me around long enough to keep running errands for her. Sheerow, you stupid bird, it’s cage for you if you don’t shit outside. I’m glad Zelda and Hilda are okay.

We call him Hyrule, the Traveler. He’s some centuries down the line, the next Link, and I’ve been to his world. It makes me worry about the future. Rav, I’m really, really worried. I don’t think I’ve done enough

Stay safe.

Yours,

Link

My Link,

You’ve done enough. More than enough. Never forget that.

If Hyrule falls, then at the very least, you defended it with all your life. You gave it precious time to be prosperous. You’re the Hero of Legend for a reason, Link.

Zelda wanted to include her own message on this letter when she heard that you’re distraught, so I’m leaving the rest of the space to her. Stay safe.

Yours,

Ravio

Link -

Hyrule’s history consists of both golden and dark ages. The Heroes of past all fought hard and performed their duty, and sometimes, the Kingdom falls regardless. However. Hyrule always rises again. I understand your worry for us, for Hyrule; but even when we fall in the future, a new Hero arises, right? Hyrule will be okay. You’ve done everything asked of you, and that is more than enough.

My doors are open if you need comfort or advice. Please, if you need to, seek me out. I’m here for you, like I’ve always been, always remember that.

Your sister,

Zelda

Dearest Ravio,

I’m sorry I worried you. I’ll be home soon. I’ll tell you everything then.

We’re in my Hyrule right now. I can tell from the magic, but we’re far out from the kingdom. Prepare ingredients for 9 - we have a cook, don’t worry - and expect me home within week’s end.

Yours,

Link

P.S. Zelda, we need to talk. There’s a curse. I’ll be at the castle promptly.

My dearest Link,

Please note the package attached to this letter. There’s two apple pies for you all, rupees for the Smith’s payment, and the Captain’s scarf which he couldn’t grab before you were all whisked away. Zelda has also left rings with protective charms for the others with none.

One more thing. The hibiscus plant is flowering, but I forgot to pick one for you earlier. I placed a stasis charm on it, so I hope it’ll be okay when it reaches you. I tried to pick the best color from your description; I hope I did her justice.

Best wishes for you all!

Yours,

Ravio

Dearest Ravio,

The hibiscus is perfect. Thank you.

The Captain thanks you for his scarf (he was whining like a toddler without it), and the Smithy sends you back your change. Pass on my thanks to Zelda for the rings. Your pies are delicious, as always.

Nothing much has happened lately, nothing worth writing about. We’re in the Champion’s Hyrule, and it’s so large that I feel grateful for the distance between our Kingdoms now. I never want to walk again.

Yours,

Link

My dearest Link,

I, once again, am entirely unsure if this will reach you. I’m writing from my bunk. It’s been an interesting past week.

I’ve been thrust through a portal of my own, thankfully able to prepare first. I met the Captain again; I can see why he recognized me now! I’m doing okay, and I’m fine and safe. I’ve run into Wind, too, and a boy who almost looks like Time.

Link, I think I met her too. She matches everything you described, hibiscus and all. I don’t know how she’s here, either. She’s kind.

I’ll write as much as I can - it should be more exciting, now! - and I hope we’ll both be home safe soon.

Yours,

Ravio

My dearest Ravio,

Excuse me, you’re fighting in the fucking War of Eras!? Tell Warriors if he puts you on the front lines I’ll kill him. Slowly. By the Three, you better not get killed or hurt or ANYTHING along those lines. And you need to get home safe as soon as possible so the chance to is gone.

I don’t know what to say about her. I don’t know how she’s there, either, but be kind to her. And tell her I say hi, I guess, if she remembers me. Don’t let her go ba

Don’t open any time paradoxes, I know I’ll be the sorry fuck who saves you. Stay safe, damnit.

Yours,

Link

My dearest Link,

You never fail to make me laugh. And you call me a worrywart! I’m fine, don’t worry. Everyone is sweet and they take extra care to keep the ones from other times alive. Unfortunately, I think informing Mr. Captain Hero Sir of your threats would create a time paradox, as he doesn’t know you yet. Feel free to threaten him after-the-fact in your group, though!

Marin remembers you. She tells you to stop being a grump, and that’s only after my few descriptions of you! She also congratulated us on our marriage, though it’s been a year since. She appreciates the hibiscus plant and your pursuit of music when you’re home. She also says you should retire.

I understand why you care for her, Link. Really, you are a sweet person.

Yours,

Ravio

My dearest Ravio,

The Captain laughed in my face, because he’s an asshole. I would bet on my life that he’ll keep you safe, though; he’s captain for a reason. And maybe I do worry too much, but I have good reason to.

I’m glad she’s alive. This is selfish, but ask her if Koholint is doing okay, please. Tell her I’ll retire when the ladies upstairs let me.

I don’t know how to reply to your last line, Rav. But thank you, I guess. It’s hard to be kind in this world.

Yours,

Link

My dearest, Link,

I’m sorry I haven’t been able to write for a while. Sheerow went missing, and with no time traveling postbird, I haven’t been able to send letters. The war has also kept me busy and the paper has been scarce. I miss you so, so much.

I’m home. I don’t know how long it’s been for you, but it was around a year and a half for me. Sheerow is safe; he’s been at home this whole time. I’ll be waiting for you here again.

I like to think I discovered a bit of courage for myself while out there. Maybe the amount you rubbed off on me finally paid off, yeah? I’m really tired, I’m going to stay here for a while and rest. This is all over the place. I’m sorry.

Marin went back to Koholint. I don’t know if she’s alive there, but I’d like to hope she is. I’m sorry you two didn’t get to meet again. I’m apologizing a lot.

Have you been around? Our house looks the same as ever. I hope you did get to visit, at least for a little, in the time I’ve been gone.

I pray for your safety. I miss you, Link.

Yours,

Ravio

My dearest, Ravio,

I can’t put my relief into words. I’m still out, but nearing the end of this adventure. I can feel it coming to a close soon, and this one feels final. Maybe I’ll actually be able to retire.

I’ve missed you so much. I thought you were dead, or hurt, or Sheerow was dead or hurt, and I swear I couldn’t sleep for months. I’ll never let that damn bird out of our sights again. Please rest, Rav. I understand how you’re feeling right now. I’ll be home to help as soon as I can - you can’t recover from something like that alone.

Marin being alive or dead is more of a discussion if she is real or not real. I find that thinking over those kind of questions too much will only lead to feeling worse. It’s better to just accept that she’s gone. I’ll be there for you.

I’ve visited some, not as much as I wish I could. There’s never much time to relax, and our house feels wrong without you there.

Never apologize again, that’s a threat. I’m so glad you’re okay.

Yours,

Link

P.S. Did you think I wouldn’t notice you flirting with me? “My dearest, Link,”?

My dearest, Link,

Thank you. I’m harvesting apples from the orchard again, and I made pie for the first time in a while. Sheerow is carrying it over for you.

It’s been hard, this past week, but I think I’ll be okay. I just need time to re-adjust. Don’t rush your adventure for me, okay? I’m glad you’ll be home soon, though.

I’m looking forward to see you again.

Yours,

Ravio

P.S. I can’t help but notice that you also placed a comma after “dearest”. Besides, aren’t we married?

My dearest, Ravio,

The portals have begun to place us in our own times, and we’re having our final goodbyes. You’ll be happy to hear that I’ll be home within a fortnight. I’m excited to see you again, finally. I love your pie; it’s amazing, as always.

I’ll see you soon.

Yours,

Link

P.S. We are married, and we’ve signed off as “yours” for over a year. Are you surprised that you’re my beloved?

My dearest, Link,

Hurry up and get home, you flirt. First you propose over letters, now you confess?

Yours,

Ravio

My Ravio,

I’m in Hyrule, three days out from home. Don’t you forget that you initiated everything.

I can’t wait to see your face again. I love you.

Your husband,

Link

My Link,

I won’t bother to send you this letter, because I’ll tell you in person, but you can go ahead and find it on our counter when you arrive tomorrow.

You said “my Ravio” again, like you wrote on a note before our marriage. Don’t think you’re not as much to blame for this as I am.

I’m waiting for you, dear. I love you, too.

Your husband,

Ravio

TLOZ translations always seem to be a bit shitty. I still see people talk about the weird translation of the Demise monologue at the end of SkSw. I think someone said that Demise was more general with his statement, as in there will always be forces from the demon tribe fighting against the light or smth? Not specifically "us three will always fight". (I've read it a few times, but hard to remember, sorry.) (On the topic of SkSw, I kinda dislike how much it impacted theories within TLOZ, some theories are really cool, don't get me wrong. But now, even games that existed for years before suddenly are being pushed to fit with the lore presented in that game. Ganondorf being the best example: He no longer is his own character who did bad things because of his own will and actions, it's now "He did it all because an evil curse made him do it. He had no choice, he was born as a vessel for the demonic lord." The implications that "the curse of Demise" also would mainly go for the already vilified race of the Gerudo, and make their one male an evil warlord is already kinda... yeah... no. (Not to mention that there are other demon lords throughout the franchise that have nothing to do with Ganon.)

Ohh speaking of this I recently saw this post that did a good translation of that very moment, and pretty much confirms what you are mentioning anon; that it's basically a promise of that cycle coming back moreso than Demise himself coming back (especially since his actual and definitive death is a big deal in that game).

But yeah, I agree it has taken a huge space in the way the series is thought about. I pretty much completely missed that hard turn, as I couldn't play Skyward Sword when it released and wasn't super into Zelda afterward anymore (I had gotten too edgy.... 2011 was the year where I got obsessed with every horror videogame in existence basically except for Resident Evil for some reason I could never get into that series ANYWAY WAY off topic........), so coming back a few years later had me very ???? puzzled about how the theories had reconstructed themselves around Hylia and Demise and endless cycles (it's not that it wasn't a thing before, but I wouldn't say it was as much a Series Trademark as it is now).

But yeah. Ganondorf having his own motivations makes him immediately stronger as an antagonist, especially since his deal is quite complicated all things considered.

I am having a thought about how a lot of Zelda villains' motivation is a sort of rebellion against nature. I have scratched enough digital paper about Ganondorf's situation, but like... Minish Cap Vaati is also very much motivated by his refusal to remain small and whimsical and seize power instead of staying in his lane (and then he gets horny in Four Sword so, maybe let's not go there), Zant is.... Zant, Hilda in A Link Between World has been cosmically punished for trying to reject the Goddesses and create a world on its own terms --like SERIOUSLY this is HORRIFYING I feel like we don't talk enough about how utterly nightmarish of a reality that paints for Hyrule as a whole-- Girahim is devoted but fights for the side more or less destined to lose... It's interesting how Hyrule is hostile to change and anything that threatens the statut quo.

(then you have the occasional Majora and Yuga, whomst I dooon't think really fit the above category --to their full credit! and then you have Bellum, who is..... a blob...... And I don't remember enough from either the Oracles game or about Malladus to put them in either category, I need to replay those games)

Hyrule really has this frightening quality to it when you stare at it for too long: that your two only options are to either graciously submit to your assigned cosmic role, or fight it and become darkness incarnate in some way. A Link Between World showed, quite starkly, that trying to escape that binary choice is *not an option*.

Hi! I'm new following you... Looks pretty interesting... But I'm a bit confused of the nicknames of the characters... Like "sun" or "sage"

Did you have a list of who is each one? Please? Qwq

Well, first off, Hi! Hello! My name is Cinder and I write Yandere! Linked Universe!

If you're not familiar with Linked Universe I would highly recommend checking out the comic for it -> Here!

Anyway, as a fandom, we needed a way to easily differentiate between each Link bc writing 'The hero of so-and-so' every time would suck. So, they each go by Monikers that represent their hero title! The Zeldas are kind of the same. When we wanna differentiate between each games Zelda we use a specific name to do so. Here's a breakdown of each Link and their Zelda!

Name: Sky

His Zelda: Sun

His Games/appearances: Skyword Sword

Cool fact: When not including First, is often seen as the first hero of Hyrule and the first Wielder of Fi; A.K.A The Master Sword. Has a soul connection with a creature called a Loftwing, who I have dubbed as Crimson on this blog. Is mostly seen in a relationship with Sun because of their interactions in Skyword Sword, but I don't think it's ever been confirmed. Is Hella cute though.

Name: Four

His Zelda: Dot

His Games/appearances: Minish Cap, Four Swords, Four Swords Adventures

Cool fact: Four has the ability to split into four versions of himself, each reflecting an aspect of his personality (Red; protective, Blue; soft hearted, Green; still have no clue, and Vio; the brain cell). There was another part named Shadow who was, as you guessed, a shadow but he died. From my inference he was closest with Vio, but I'm embarrassingly unfamiliar with it. Four also has the ability to shrink to the size of a Minish/Picori; a race of mouse sized beings known for hiding trinkets and rupees in grass for said hero! Had a talking hat name Enzlo who ended up being a Minish in disguise. Did not get to keep talking hat.

Name: Time

His Zelda: Lullaby/Sheik

His Games/appearances: Ocarina of Time, Majora's mask

Cool fact: Has masks. Lots of em. One in particular linking him to a war god dubbed the Fierce Deity. Had an ocarina that turned back time, but he broke the timeline (Like a ding dong). Timeline A; where he survived and defeated Ganon. And Timeline B: A.K.A the downfall timeline, where he died (like a noob). Often seen as the oldest of the group but we have no idea how old he actually is. Was raised by a tree and has issues with the moon. Got trust issues from a mask. In Linked Universe Lore, he is married to a farm girl name Malon- who wrote Epona's song.

Name: Legend

His Zelda: Fable

His Games/appearances: A Link to the Past, Oracle of Seasons, Oracle of Ages, Link's awakening, Link Between Worlds, Triforce Heroes

Cool fact: Has a lover named Marin. She was not in fact real. Gave him trust issues. Also known as the Veteran for the sheer amount of adventures he's been on. Known as a hoarder, especially with rings that grant him special abilities and has a funky counterpart named Ravio (A merchant who reigns from Lorule, a mirror verse of Hyrule. his Zelda is Hilda, but he's not a Link so he doesn't get a paragraph. He does have a cool bird though named Sheerow and wears a funky hood. He's just a funky dude.) Legend is part of the Downfall Timeline, coming directly after that version of time, fell.

Name: Hyrule

His Zelda: Dawn, Aurora (He has two, though I'm not sure on the why/how/basically anything about them.)

His Games/appearances: Legend of Zelda, Zelda II

Cool fact: Is half fairy! It grants him the ability to use magic, especially healing spells and a lightning spell called 'Thunder', and he can turn into the size of a fairy with wings. Comes directly after Legend. Hyrule is also part of the Downfall Timeline, and is most often paired with Legend because of it. His Hyrule is particularly hostile with poisoned water and barren lands. Also gives him trust issues.

Name: Twilight

His Zelda: Dusk

His Games/appearances: Twilight Princess

Cool fact: Fell in love once. Fucked him up. Nah, I kid. No I don't. Twilight was raised in a village called Ordon as a rancher before his journey. On said journey, he was faced with something called the Twilight Realm which turned him into a wolf (A.K.A. Wolfie). There he met the Spoiler Twilight Princess named Midna. While in game there were no confirmations on their relationship, in the Manga they did smooch. made me cry. Anyway, after their adventure together Midna goes back to her world, destroying the only thing that links hers and Twilights together as she did, offically ghosting him. Gave him turst issues. He wears a twilight shard around his neck that allows him to shift between forms as he pleases. He is Time's descendant and had Time as guide to him in his adventure in the form of the Hero's Shade. Twilight is part of Timeline A. The one that did not fall.

Name: Wind

His Zelda: Tetra

His Games/appearances: Wind Waker, Phantom Hourglass (Depending on who you ask, he's also Spirit Tracks Link, but I do not think so)

Cool fact: Is a pirate! Had a pirate ship dad! Had a little sister, Aryll, that was taken by birds. Gave him trust issues. Lived with his grandmother and Aryll before Tetra who is, spoiler, Zelda, shows up and helps him find his sister. Tetra is so cool man, she's a pirate captain. Anyway, most often seen as the youngest Link. In his game, he wasn't even a hero lmao. Just some guy who's sister got taken and he went and found the triforce before merking Ganon RIGHT BETWEEN THE EYES. He was just feeling a little silly. Wind, I believe, is part of some third timeline stemming from Time's adventure or in the Downfall Timeline as his Hyrule flooded, leaving most to live on high mountains to avoid drowning.

Name: Warriors

His Zelda: Artemis (my love <3)

His Games/appearances: Hyrule Warriors

Cool fact: He's got a scarf. Had a wizardess who was supposed to watch time and space fall in love with him. Gave him trust issues. Has scars from when he drew the Master sword; which dominoed into something called The War of Eras. Companions and other heroes were pulled to his time to assist in the war, including, but not limited too; Time (Known as Mask in this regards), Wind, Midna, Marin, Ravio, Linkle (A female Link who was originally Wars' sister but, that idea was scrapped), and probably more that I'm missing idk I haven't finished the game. Is Captain of his knight squadron and famously despises Traitors. His own Zelda turned into Sheik to assist in the battle, but she's perfect just the way she is <3 Does not fall explicitly into either time line.

Now, this is where things kind of get tricky. Wild can either be one hero on three adventures or three different guys who arise during their subsequent time. For this blog, we see them as three different people.

Name: Calamity

His Zelda: Fauna

His Games/appearances: Age of Calamity

Cool fact: While his game is not seen as canon to the timeline, we include him because he's cool. Was part of a timeline where his Zelda unlocked his sealing powers earlier and saved them in time to fight the Calamity. He did not die, did not sleep for a hundred years, and kept his memory. Also a knight, also has trust issues, eats rocks. Does not fall explicitly into either time line.

Name: Wild

His Zelda: Flora

His Games/appearances: Breath of the Wild

Cool fact: Is the version of Calamity that's canon. His Zelda failed to awaken her powers in time, he, along with the Champions, died, took a hundred year nap, got trust issues, got memory issues, did not know wtf a stick was at the start of his adventure. Has a cool tablet called a Sheikah slate that lets him use runes (Magnet, ice, bombs, freeze time). In Linked Universe, he has scars lacing his one side. Is said to have had Wolfie as a guide during his adventure. Does not fall explicitly into either time line, but if I had to guess I would put it as Timeline A.

Name: Sage

His Zelda: Natura

His Games/appearances: Tears of the Kingdom

Cool fact: So, Sage was actually cultivated here! He is the Link from the newest Zelda Game, characterized by his anger and grudges held against Hylia. Does not have the scars, because of Rauru, but does have Fangs. Falls directly after Wild, as they are technically the same guy. When referring to the 'triplets' we are referring to Sage, Wild and Calamity.

Anyway, hope this helped! If you have anymore questions, lmk!

*walks on in, downs tea like a shot* So today because I am sleep deprived and have no self control, I'll be dropping some Zonai Headcanons that will be most likely debunked by Tears of the Kingdom when it comes out and make it y'alls problem:

(Long post down below and it has more likely been debunked by TOTK! I haven't combed through all the lore there yet so fair warning, this was written before release)

The Zonai were likely descended from the Interlopers aka the Twili, but not in the traditional way because the history enthusiast in me is screaming there's inconsistencies and I'm going to find a way to patch them so help me. The Interlopers were the Ancient Twili, a race of sorcerer's who mainly were around Hyrule during the in between period of Skyward Sword and Minish Cap according to Hyrule Encyclopedia, they were sealed away in the Twili Realm by presumably the Zelda of the time, the hero and the Light Spirits for attempting to steal the Triforce, but I don't think they came back after Twilight Princess, at least not right away.

Let me explain, if the Interlopers were a race with their own kingdom or region to live on like the Gerudo, and specially if they were sorcerers, would all of them be onboard with stealing the Triforce? No, because that's not how warfare works and not how people work, they are already sorcerers, they can do magic, break reality in ways never seen before, so why would they need the Triforce? Why would any man, woman or warrior with something to lose support a cause like that when there's more risk than gain? Why would any person risk their entire race facing retaliation if they failed and in turn their siblings, lovers, children being killed even if they could gain unlimited power, presuming the gods didn't punish them first for stealing a power not meant for them? No one with common sense would. We see evidence of this in a Link Between Worlds, the main reason Hilda didn't say anything about stealing the Triforce and why Ravio came to Hyrule, because she kept it in house her plan with Yuuga and Ravio only, why? Because of Ravio's reaction, it's anyone's reaction to a plan like this, it's pure insanity, no one with common sense (and no hubris) would support a plan like this, it would split the kingdom in two: the people who supported the plan (aka Hilda and Yuuga) and the people who didn't (aka Ravio had he actually said something before dipping to Hyrule which would have honestly been more effective/less convoluted if you ask me and the rest of the common Lorulian people, because yes it's a dying world but it's theirs and they wouldn't want to make the situation worse or risk war with another world entirely over the Triforce when having a Triforce already screwed them over due to everyone fighting over it, that's why Lorule's Triforce was destroyed, a hasty and bad decision, but the best one anyone had at the time not to mention the fact Hyrule's and Lorule's Triforce's likely have different virtues). I think that's what happened with the Interlopers, the Twili Ruler at the time wouldn't have wanted to risk their people's safety so they shut down that plan as soon as possible, but it already split the people in two, so what do they do when the traitors and greedy Interlopers go behind their back? Devise a plan of their own to counteract it. Preferably with the people targeted so that they could safeguard their people even after it was enacted.

You know how the Picori Blade was given to a hero before Four before the events of Minish Cap, where it was broken and then reforged into the Four Sword? It was made by the Minish and given away precisely so it could deal with the rampant darkness and monsters running round at the time, acting as a seal which is broken in Minish Cap because Vaati is a power hungry idiot who didn't bother to read the full myth before setting out on a quest for the Triforce (if he did he would also see that the monsters/darkness were sealed by the Picori Blade, NOT just the Triforce, I adore his presentation as a villain but good lord man, read the fine print. When you go on a hubris fueled quest ya gotta know all the lore and you clearly didn't given your surprise when you broke the Picori Blade, redeeming points for realizing the Triforce was on Zelda rather than the chest though, and presentation). It was probably a seal given by the Picori to be used by the Hero of Men because Fi as we know wasn't available, she was used to seal Demise and presumably Sky and Sun took the secret of where she was to their graves or ONLY available if an Incarnation of Demise turned up, hence why we only see it in Ocarina of time and beyond. If Fi isn't available then the Picori Blade is meant to be a substitute to do the job.

So what I speculate is that the greedy Interlopers started controlling what remained of Demise's monsters on the surface with their magic to attack Hyrule in an attempt to steal the Triforce by force with likely a few of their own sorcerers throw in the mix, they probably did it behind the previous Twili Ruler's back because their plan was shut down and, if they were anything like Midna, they would NOT have it (because let's be honest Midna was a strong gal and would do anything for her people if necessary, her love for the light people came later), so they approached the Hero of Men and presumably his Zelda once he got the Picori Blade from the Minish with a plan: the Hero would take care of sealing the monsters with the Picori Blade, while they and the Princess would create the Mirror of Twilight and, with the aid of the Light Spirits due to the traitors creating the Fused Shadows behind their back, would seal themselves with as many of their own fighters and supporters as they could gather inside the Sacred Realm with the traitors to finish them off, which would lead to the Twili we have today before Midna broke the Mirror for good. As a gesture of good will they could have lent some sorcerers and warriors to pledge themselves to the Royal family and more specifically the princess, which would lead to the Sheikah, and the Mirror, in case circumstances ever got drastic again and they'd need to use it to make sure those who didn't want to fight (aka civilians) would be safe and make it so that the Mirror could only be broken by someone with the blood of the Original Twilight Ruler and strong magic (hence why Zant couldn't do it, Midna has both the blood and power, while Zant doesn't) it's a master plan in theory.

Except there's one problem: the remains would likely suffer stigma from the Hylians, much like how Ganon's actions brought stigma to the Gerudo as being liars and thieves, it would explain why later generations would be suspicious of the Sheikah and cull them later on before Ocarina of Time, that's why the Hylian Civil War happened and why by Breath of the Wild Sheikah magic and tech was regarded with suspicion even if it did help 10.000 years ago, it's because of this one event, so the ruler of the Twili likely would have given two more orders after putting someone new in charge: go to the skies like how the Hylians did if needed be (giving rise to the Sky People we see in Minish Cap and their remains in Twilight Princess, plus the structures in the sky and why Zonai structures rise in to the sky), and if for whatever reason things look extremely dire (like say, a civil war and then the rise of a mother blinking Demon King/Warmongering King of Thieves, and then the Twili Crisis which they would most likely get blamed for, and the War of Ages if we want to make Hyrule Warriors the inflection point of the timeline), go to the sea and leave Hyrule entirely (remember, there's other kingdoms outside of Hyrule guys, we see most of them in the Downfall Timeline, the events of Link's Awakening only happen because Legend either attempts to leave or return to Hyrule via boat), return only if peace does.

Look at the placement of Lurelin Village and of most Zonai structures: by the sea, by the ocean, only later on does it fully expand into Faron, Lurelin is also a hidden village and extremely hard to find, what if Lurelin Village isn't only where the Zonai descendants reside, but also their initial settlement back in Hyrule after they thought all was safe and done 10.000 years ago, or heck maybe longer as we don't actually know the time gap between BOTW, the 10.000 years Calamity (I'll call it the Catalyst) and the rest of the Zelda timeline, where they started to use their original and script and name again: the proud Zonai people. Maybe they were like the Vikings, wayfarer people, sorcerer and warrior people by necessity who started out on the shores of Hyrule with a single settlement in case things got bad (because they'd likely be taught some measure of caution and want to stay hidden, or at least have somewhere they could fall on and leave if necessary), and then later on expanded to the rest of Faron and maybe Hyrule's underground, maybe they reclaimed some of their settlements on the skies that only they could access via the portals (which look an awful lot like access points of fast travel) or made it so that in times of crisis their structures would rise up, but then Catalyst and later on the Hylian Royalty finished the remnants off before they could be fully done, with the Sheikah doing the actual deed and painting them in a 'barbarian' and 'savage' light, leaving only those who could escape to Lurelin left and their magical ways to die out if most of the people sent there or who escaped couldn't do magic or weren't taught yet (or maybe they went specifically after the magic users). You can't tell me Ganon 10.000 years ago would leave such a blatant threat to his plans alone, specially if they wouldn't join him (NO ONE would want to pull a Zant, out of respect for Midna and The Hero if nothing else, as it's seen the Zonai worshiped the Hero and the Triforce of Courage even above the Triforce of Wisdom/Hylia/The Princess and The Triforce of Power/Demise/Ganon, they would support him whatever way they could, a first as usually the hero doesn't have much support, Zelda had the Sheikah and Ganon has the monsters and now the Yigah, but who did Link have? Who did the Hero have? They HAD to repay the favor he did to the descendant of their original leader and by the lord they'd do it specially if the Hero of Catalyst was one of them like how everyone is speculating even f it killed them, it's speculated that the luminous stones are the remains of their magic used to seal Calamity Ganon or that the energy with the glowing arm is that, maybe they all were sacrificed to Calamity Ganon by monsters to empower him one last time or sacrificed themselves to give the Hero one last boost so he could aid Zelda in doing it and we know this is a thing that can happen in game, see how the Sages we're almost sacrificed plus the hero in the Downfall Timeline, and how Dusk/Twilight Princess Zelda gave up her Triforce and Magic so Midna could live so it's very possible, maybe that's what happened and the stones are the remnants), and the Hylian Royalty has show themselves to be paranoid and very much capable of rewriting history. So between Calamity Ganon and likely their efforts, they were all but exterminated.

The Hylian Royalty made sure to write the Zonai out of history once Zelda was gone, and also made sure to keep the Hero and his origin as vague as possible but leave it implied that he was Hylian to plant themselves as better, I mean the historians before them also did it, no one ever mentions the Hero of Time being Kokiri, or the Hero of Twilight Ordonian, so why should they mention that the Hero of Catalyst was Zonai? And the Hyrule Royalty besides usually the Zelda's did as much bad stuff as good stuff and clearly disregarded the other races most of the time (y'all may forget how that one Hylian healer refused to treat Prince Ralis all because he was a Zora in Twilight Princess but I SURE DIDN'T. THAT IS A CHILD! THE ZORA PRINCE AT THAT! THEY WERE BASICALLY RISKING WAR WITH THE ZORA BY LETTING HIM DIE IF NOT FOR RENALDO, PEOPLE. I don't have much faith in them for regarding the Zonai with respect as a result, look at their description when we look at the armor related to them: barbarian, savage, those are words usually used when you want to diminish the word of a person, the Celts were called that, the Vikings, indigenous folks too, you get the idea). History is written by the victors and those left to tell the story, and if one side isn't left, what do you get? Details being rewritten or erased (again, looking at real world history: Irish Mythology, Slavic Mythology, the general Celtic cultures around the British Isles, the Aztecs, all of them written out or rewritten in some way that we don't even know what the original myth looks like, we can only speculate, Slavic mythos and culture specially got shafted), so to me that's what happened to the Zonai, the Lurelin people eventually forgot, with no one left to tell the story, only murals that are deep underground and far up in the sky that no one would remember or find until Link (Wild, Slate, Sage, whatever name y'all use or headcanon just BOTW Link in general) and his Zelda (Flora, or whichever name y'all use) eventually find them or if anyone in the Twilight Realm remember and care to tell the history somehow.

Also, since they expanded to Faron, it's very, very possible they met the Ordonian's and they intermarried with them because A: they were the closest people/tribe plus the most similar to them, and B: Geographically it would make sense, explain what happened to the Ordonians, plus also tie in nicely if anyone sees Twilight Princess Link as Breath of the Wild Link's ancestor, which I very much do by the way.

At least that's that from my perspective as someone who reads way too much history, mythology and who has been way too invested in Zelda Lore and the games ever since I was a kid, even if my sleep deprived ramblings likely look like this:

Anyway I'll stop here for today, regular posting content will likely happen later on. I kind of wrote this on mobile motivated only by sleep deprivation and spite and if I don't stop myself now I'll probably write an entire essay on this and I doubt many people would be interested in that.

Fuck it I'm gonna say it but I think Ravio is actually an incredibly brave guy. Like he left Lorule knowing full well that he could probably not go back home, in order to save Lorule and its princess and his companion Hilda from a shady person who didn't have her and their kingdom's best interests in mind. Knowing full well that he himself didn't have the strength to fight Yuga himself he went to Hyrule in search of a hero, or rather Link knowing that he was strong enough to fight this madman when he couldn't. And he did this while being afraid yet he brushed that fear aside in order to not only save Lorule and Hilda, but to also save Hyrule, Zelda and Link by making a way for the hero of courage to do what needed to be accomplished. Not only that but he was incredibly wise too, especially when he finally confronted Hilda and told her that what she was doing was essentially what her ancestors were trying so desperately to stop. That she was creating the very madness that resulted in Lorule's Triforce being destroyed and condemning their world to it's current state of ruin.

Like Ravio isn't brave in the traditional sense, he doesn't use swords or fight monsters or any of the normal things we usually associate with heroism but his actions that he took despite his fear makes him just as brave as Link in so many ways. Because it takes so much bravery to literally turn your back on everything you know in order to do what's right, even if in the end it might be all for nothing. That takes guts and Ravio did that. So in my humble opinion he's a pretty brave man.

Can you rank the ganons in terms of intellect?

To be honest, I want to say that because most iterations of Ganon are the same Ganondorf from OoT that their intellect should be similar. I suppose what we can rank then is then how well he deployed his cunning in each game he found himself in. 1. ALttP: I think it was in this game that he deployed his most cunning strategy. He had understood that Hyrule had a penchant for putting heroes on a pedestal and used it to his advantage to get by the king's side, and then turn his knights and Hyrule against him. He turned his realm of imprisonment into a kingdom of his own where he could foster his armies. He was able to get his alter ego past the barrier keeping him trapped. 2. OoT: The fact that he went to each tribe seeking their stone, and then cursed them in such a way that they didn't even know he was responsible for their plight in a Hyrule that already had suspicions and racist attitudes is quite the feat. I feel like the only miscalculation he made here was making it obvious to the Deku Tree that he was responsible because he did not anticipate anyone leaving the forest to inform Hyrule at large, or that even if someone did manage to leave the forest they would not be convincing enough to implicate him. Unfortunately that person happened to be the hero fated to defeat him sooooo. In any case, he also correctly deduced that Link had the Ocarina he was chasing Zelda for and followed him so you know, man was working his sneaking skills hard to position himself in a fortunate position. 3. FSA: In a way, I feel like he stumbled into his power. The game keeps it vague, but the way I see it is that Ganondorf was probably aware that the Pyramid of Power housed a great power but had never pursued it seriously until the Gerudo put him up for execution. With no where to go he probably put all his bets there and it paid off for him. However, after that, he played it smart by using Shadow Link to lead Link to the Four Sword to release Vaati, and hiding behind Vaati since this Hyrule seems more invested in seeing Vaati as a threat. 4. TP: I have to say, he has a good grasp on emotional intelligence in the manipulative sense. He needed a body to host his power in to find his way to the light, so he knew he had to find someone who had just enough sway amongst the Twili, and just enough envy and jealousy in their heart to manipulate and he found him in Zant. From there he just had to sit back and watch Zant do the work for him. I guess his plan though did require a good measure of luck but eh, in every royal or powerful political structure you're bound to find someone bitter enough.

5. ALBW: I guess maybe most of the credit for this goes to Yuga, but basically gaining Hilda's trust and then playing along with her plan until he was in a position to take her piece is pretty cunning. I don't know if Yuga *always* held such visions or if merging with Ganon and taking the Triforce of Power caused him to develop such a vision, but in any case it must have taken a good measure of patience to wait long enough. 6. BotW: Everyone says he behaves like a force of nature but like, Calamity Ganon has intellect. He learns from his mistakes and comes back stronger each time. He hacked into the Divine Beasts and the Guardians. Calamity Ganon has the mind of an engineer go figure. 7. WW: I think his plan was kind of stupid. Really, every blond girl with pointy ears Ganondorf? Have you seen the red head and brunette Zeldas this could have gone sooooooo wrong for you my man you just got lucky. WW Ganondorf had a bit of an upper hand because his magic was strong and he had a grasp of how the gods worked so he could sort of get Link where he needed him to get the Triforce into his hands so I'll give him a bit of a pass here.

8. TotK: I don't think he's particularly stupid here, but I don't think anything he did was particularly intelligent or cunning either. I think he wanted to put on a show of force in a way to show Rauru that he was someone to not take lightly and that he would come out on top. Ganondorf was able to get the stone because of Rauru's hubris; they all knew he was bad news and let him run amuck. (Okay well he did reprogram the seized construct so I suppose this is where Calamity Ganon got his engineering brains from) 9. Zelda 1: The entire world was in chaos and Ganon found out that Hyrule had the Triforce so he took his armies to Hyrule and got the Triforce of Power. Strongman tactics that worked I guess. 10. OoS/OoA: He didn't even have a chance to think. He just woke up and found a kid with a sword attacking him so like what was he supposed to do? His brain was also so fractured he couldn't speak in full sentences. Poor guy. BONUS ROUND HW: I think he's actually pretty smart and he's self aware too. He is actually able to take good advice from his subordinates and can identify when he's letting his own ambitions take the best of him. He will pull out of a battle he's losing because there is no glory in defeat or death. I would say that I think he's a great strategist (and I mean in a Dynasty Warriors style game you have to be). And this doesn't even touch on the fact that he manipulated Cia's feelings and was able to gather the parts of his soul that were shattered and contained in different dimensions to reform his body. I mean, he's good, he is. Cadence of Hyrule: He boppin to the muuuuuuusic but I think he's average right. I found his strained relationship with Barriara as a child to be funny. Like Octavo was the main antagonist really and then he just said oh it's because Ganon is going to be the bad guy in the future so you just get a free pass to the future to beat up Ganon. Poor guy. CD-I Ganon: THROW THE BOOK AT HIM look the smartest thing he did was leave Hyrule but then they found him and beat him even faster anyways. Animal Crossing Ganon: Arguably the smartest Ganon because he said "you know what, fuck this I'm gonna go live a quiet life in a village full of cute unhinged animals" and chilled out. Intelligent guy, not throwing his life away for gods that hate him (or love him? I dunno is this what divine love looks like?) while enjoying his tooth achingly sweet coffee. SSB Ganondorf: He has all that power and is bottom tier, like dead last. Is this because he has a lack of intellect? Or maybe he just doesn't take it seriously? He also got backstabbed by Tabuu which like damn dude that's a first for you so, yeah maybe because when he stepped into ssb part of his brain went with it.

Several hours late, but here is my fill of yesterday’s prompt from @breannasfluff’s Ravioli Ship Week!

Music? Check.

Guests? Check.

Outfits? Check.

Decorations? Check.

Food? Did they have enough food? In traditional Lorulian fashion, the guests were all supposed to bring something for the meal. And they’d all agreed to bring sides and deserts to add to the roasted boar (haha. Thanks Zelda) that Zelda had gotten the castle chef to provide, but what if they didn’t? Or what if it wasn’t enough? What if they ran out of food before everyone had-

“If you keep that up you’re going to end up rubbing your hands raw before we even get started.” Zelda’s voice startled Link out of their mental spiral, causing them to jump and spin around to find her standing in the doorway of the room they had been told to wait in.

“Wha-?” Link blinked at her, drawing a snort of laughter from her (one Link still prided themself in getting to hear even after all this time. Zelda never laughed like that in public).

”Your hands,” she elaborated, gesturing down at them. Confused, Link looked down at their hands only to find that their rings were all askew and the skin around the beginnings of their thumbs and pointer fingers were red.

Oh.

They’d been rubbing them again hadn’t they.

“Sorry.” Embarrassed, they quickly straightened their rings (green holy ring, gold joy ring, roc’s ring) before shaking out their hands.

“It’s fine,” Zelda soothed, making her way over to them and running a light hand over the redness. Soft, bright energy sparked across their skin and when she removed her hands the redness is gone. ��What has you so worked up?”

“I justâ€¦” Link crossed their arms, hugging themself to stop from rubbing at their hands again. “I want today to be perfect, you know? He deserves for it to be perfect.”

“And it’s going to be perfect,” Zelda reassured them with an understanding smile. “You two have put far too much work into it for it not to be. And even if something does somehow go wrong it will still be perfect. Because it’s you and him. And you’re finally getting married. So stop worrying so much, Little Sibling.”

“I know. I know,” Link sighed, reaching up to rub at their face. “I just—”

“You fret, I know,” Zelda’s smile quirked up in amusement. “It’s what you do. But you don’t have to fret about this. You and Ravio have this all planned out perfectly. And Hilda and I have our part covered.”

“Right.” Link nodded. They knew all this. They just needed to convince their anxiety. “You’re right. It will be fine.”

Read the rest Here

In Moonlight Falls I created the Spellman family. I only created Zelda, Hilda, Sabrina, and their cat Salem. I found a Spellman Mortuary created by TombRaidor that was perfect for them! I have made a few changes and I'm not planning for this lot to actually be a Mortuary so I didn't download the CC for that.

Mornings in the Spellman household. (A little peek inside the kitchen)

This is a premade family, Doreen Caliente, Rick Durwood, Serena Durwood, Zoe Durwood, Zack Durwood that I have made over. Obviously they are supposed to resemble the characters from Bewitched. I grew the daughter up so Sabrina would have at least one witchy friend. Their story is similar to the storyline in Bewitched...

On the outside, the Durwoods would make others jealous with their nice house, two adorable children, and a father with a great job. However, all is not what it seems between a mother in-law who disapproves of her daughter's husband and two kids who always get what they want. Can the Durwoods learn to live together or will the family spiral out of control?

When these two witches get together for afternoon tea look out! It's curses and hexes for anyone they deem fit to suffer. Zelda disapproves with Sabrina getting too close with a certain teen heartthrob who isn't a witch and Doreen as always disapproved of her daughter marrying Rick. What kind of scheming and plotting do these two wicked witches have in store for those poor unfortunate souls?

Lastly we have the Crumplebottom sisters. They are also a premade family I made over. They remind me of the Halliwell sisters from Charmed so I put them in a remake of the Halliwell house. I made headshots of them bc taking pics in the world looks unflattering for some reason.

This concludes what I done to the witches in this world. I considered making the weird sisters but I really need to make more male witches.

The Liasion

Summary: Lilith and Reader meet and have a spark. Zelda gets jealous and takes matters into her own hands.

A/N: Bad at summaries and this is part of A cry for help story. One more chapter will be added for The Liasion after this. This is so rushed >.<

Warning: No warnings

It was raining. Of course. In the middle of summer. Perfect timing. You thought it was the best time today, seeing it sunny and bright to wash your clothes, in which you did, and hung them out in the front yard. It’ll dry quickly. You thought. Boy were you wrong. 10 seconds later, clouds started to form and take place. A splash landed on the kitchen window and you flinched. You’re kidding, right?

“Fuck!” Yelling in anger from the kitchen you ran outside to quickly unclamp your clothes from the wire, trying to avoid mud getting on you or the clothes. “What happened?” Zelda asked. She looked you over and saw you soaking. “Is it raining? Out of all days.” Zelda walks up to the kitchen window. “Perfect. I have no clothes and now I have to dry them in here.” You look around to see where you can hang them. It wasn’t a big problem, but you knew it would be tricky. You throw them in the hamper and let out a growl. “Don’t be angry dear,” Hilda tried to calm you. A knock comes from the front door. You see Sabrina run down the stairs and straight to the door and open it to reveal a woman. Watching, you take time to take in the stranger. She has long, wavy dark hair, age looks the same as Zelda’s and her attire was well fit together. Clinging to her figure was a dark green, raincoat that went down to her feet, hugging her nicely.

The woman walks into the kitchen with Sabrina behind her and Zelda nods at her in acknowledgement. “Lilith,” The woman named Lilith nods. Her eyes land on you. “I do believe we haven’t met yet.” the woman reaches for your hand. “I’m Lilith.” You take it and pause. “Lilith?” You ask. “Is it a name, or are you Lilith?” The woman laughs. You’re happy she finds this amusing. “That’s right. I’m surprised they haven’t told you about me,” Lilith points at the other two. “guess I need to work harder to make my presence known.”

“She’s new here. I didn’t want to overwhelm her, but she’s interested in joining the church of Lilith tho, aren’t you?” Zelda asks, glaring at you. You slowly nod. “Y-yes…” you respond. Zelda rolls her eyes at you. Stepping closer to you, Lilith takes your face in her hands, cupping your chin. She runs her forefinger over your cheek, her nail softly scraping your flesh. Zelda watches, not aware that she’s staring a little too hard at the Queen of Hell.

“You’re something…what’s your name?” Lilith asks, still holding you in her grasp. You feel your throat go dry. “Y/n. Y/n Y/L/N.” Sabrina looks at Zelda before backing up. “I think that’s enough for today.” Lilith lets you go.

Zelda is the type of woman to never let her emotions cloud her actions, she is too grown for that. But at this very moment she didn’t care. After what she just witnessed- she needs to think fast before it’s too late.

Merry christmas!

(Legend fic?)

Here you go Candy <3

"I should go check in with my Zelda, she's probably worried sick." Legend said dryly.

“Lead the way then, vet.” Time said.

The veteran huffed and started walking, following a path to a bridge. The bridge was open wide. “I’ve got to speak to her about that.” Legend muttered and walked across, entering Hyrule Castle.

The chain followed close behind. “Link!” A voice yelped with surprise.

Zelda ran to Legend and wrapped him in a hug almost instantly. Legend returned the hug much to the group’s surprise. “Where have you been? She cried. “I’ve searched all of Hyrule and back, I’ve even contacted Labrynnia and Holodrum trying to find you but you weren’t there! Hilda said she—“

“I was time travelling.” He said, sighing.

“What?” Zelda said.

“Time travelling.” Legend repeated.

The princess blinked slowly and then just noticed the chain behind the veteran. “Are these friends of yours or do I need to call the guards?” She asked.

“We are friends of Link.” Warriors said, bowing slightly.

Zelda didn’t seem to believe him. “They’re my companions, on this new time travelling adventure.” Legend reassured her, and she walked closer to the group, her shoes loud on the stone floor.

Zelda softened. “I sense no evil in their hearts. Alright, well come on in. I can arrange a few rooms for you all. How many of you are there?” She questioned.

“Nine including me.” Legend said.

Zelda nodded and the veteran quickly followed her inside. The chain did as well. “There’s a ball tonight.” The princess said, turning to the vet.

“I’ll come.” Legend said, a bit of reluctance in his tone.

“You don’t have to if you don’t want to.” Zelda said.

“I know.” Legend said.

Zelda had an unreadable expression on her face. “Meet me for tea later this afternoon.”

The veteran nodded before the princess left. Legend sighed again, a soft smile on his face. “What’s up with that look?” Warriors asked, smirking.

“It’s been forever since I’ve had a nice conversation with Zelda.” He answered, genuinely.

The captain opened his mouth but closed it quickly. “A ball huh?” Time said, oblivious to the captain.

“That reminds me! Do any of you have proper clothes for a ball?” Legend asked, groaning when he saw them all shake their head. “I’ll let the traveller borrow some of mine, but the rest of you have to figure it out because I’m not letting you wear that to the ball.” He demanded.

The veteran gestured for Hyrule to ‘come here’ and the traveller obliged. Legend searched his bag and found a suit. He tossed it lightly to Hyrule and then pulled his own suit out of his bag. “That’s a green suit, would you be comfortable wearing that?” Legend asked.

Hyrule nodded, eyes wide. “Are you sure I can wear this tonight?”

“Of course.” Legend said and grabbed both suits.

“I’ll be back soon, don’t burn anything.” The veteran said and stepped out of the room, going outside to wash the suits.

A maid approached him pretty quickly. “Sir, I can take those suits from you.”

“It’s fine.” He waved it off and lathered the fabric with soap.

The maid didn’t move. “With all due respect it’s my job, sir.”

The veteran sighed and reluctantly handed the soapy suits to the maid. She smiled and started washing them. Legend walked back inside the castle and wandered. It had been awhile since he had been in Hyrule Castle out of free will. He looked at the paintings on the walls, examining each figure with only his eyes. Various queens, kings, and princesses smiled elegantly in the pictures, expressions almost perfect. He recognized none of the names listed below, save the many Zeldas. He felt a hand on his shoulder making him flinch. Zelda was there, smiling unlike how the painting had shown. “I thought you were coming to tea?”

“That was now?” He said sheepishly.

“Mhm.” She grasped his hand and led him to a spot in her room.

She handed him a cup of tea and sat down. Legend sat down as well. “So…” She began, swallowing back some of her tea. “Another adventure?”

“Yeah, that brings the total to about seven now?” He said, counting on his fingers.

“Seven?! I thought this would’ve been your fifth!” She yelped.

“Haven’t I told you about Hytopia?” He said, frowning.

Zelda sputtered. “No!”

Legend began to tell her about his adventure in Hytopia, meeting two other heroes and saving a cursed princess who was cursed to wear this weird brown bodysuit. She was stifling a laugh when she realized how ridiculous the whole thing was. When he was finished she had forgotten about the other missing adventure and Legend almost sighed in relief. He was not about to tell her what he did on Koholint…

“What exactly are you doing on this quest?” Zelda asked and then took a gulp of her tea.

“Chasing this Lizalfos that uses portals to travel through eras. We are still trying to figure out a lot.” He admitted.

“Hm.” She hummed, looking deep in thought. “What about your companions? Eight heroes from different eras?”

The veteran explained a lot, including how he had a nickname for himself and time passed as he talked. Zelda kept asking questions, Legend answering as best as he could. Eventually night approached. “It seems I have lost track of time.” Zelda said, and stood up.

“That reminds me, can my brothers borrow some suits for the ball?” He asked.

“Yep. Just ask the maids.” Zelda nodded.

Legend left and found the maids who gave him many fancy suits. He returned to their rooms, the chain picked their clothes and soon they walked to the ball. Zelda was wearing a beautiful blue dress, the king next to him in huge red robes. “Welcome Heroes of Hyrule!” The king rumbled.

Legend stiffened and went straight out of the spotlight. The princess started to get out of her seat but the king put a hand on her arm. The veteran started chatting with Ravio who had come as soon as he heard Legend was there. He accepted a drink from someone absently and took a sip of it as the merchant rambled about how amazing business was going. Legend responded with snark and then went to the captain who was alone in his ‘captain mode’. “Hey, what’s up?” Legend asked, drinking some more of the juice that was handed to him.

Warriors jumped a little and then said, “Just have bad memories with these kind of events.”

The vet made a move to comfort him but all of the sudden there was fire in his lungs and he started coughing uncontrollably. “You okay, vet?” Warriors asked, worry shining in his eyes.

Legend couldn’t respond as he began to vomit, bile and the juice from earlier spilling onto the floor. “Legend?!”

His vision became blurry, and voices were fuzzy, as the his lungs burned and he felt agony in his chest. Then his eyes closed.

________________________________________

Warriors caught the vet once he fell limp. All of the sudden Legend had vomited and then went unconscious. “We need a medic!” Warriors yelled.

The room stopped for a minute and Fable rushed over, eyes wide. “What happened?”

“I don’t know.” The captain said, biting his lip.

A medic arrived after a little bit and started evaluating the situation. The chain had come over, as well as Legend’s friends. “I’m going to bring him to the infirmary.” The medic announced and the traveller rushed to help.

They left and silence hung in there. “Wait.” Warriors said, paling.

He grabbed the drink that Legend had been holding and drinking out of, and smelled it. “There’s poison in here.” Warriors murmured.

“What?” Fable said angrily.

“His drink was poisoned.” Warriors answered. “I’ve seen it used before, the results aren’t good. Ze-Artemis was targeted before and she almost died.”

“Mr Captain Hero Sir? I saw a man hand him that drink while we were talking.” Ravio said quietly.

“Do you remember what he looked like?” Warriors asked.

“I know he had black hair and red eyes. Now that I think about it that’s…” Ravio trailed off.

“Search the castle for this man!” The king ordered and the knights set out.

Warriors looked around the room but the man was nowhere to be seen. Fable had ordered that the captain was to go the infirmary and tell the medic what was going on. Warriors obeyed. “Poison…made of a plant that shouldn’t be in this time?” The medic mused.

“Yes. The cure…isn’t in this time either.” Warriors said.

“If you can find the Oracle of Ages, she might be able to send you to the right time. Otherwise the Prince is doomed.” The medic said gravely.

“Prince?”

“Prince Link.”

You know what, Warriors wasn’t going to question that right now. “I’ll find this Oracle of Ages.” He promised.

Legend was lying down on a bed, pale and face twisted with agony. Warriors’ determination only grew.

“Good luck.”

Air=wings, earth=mountain, lightning=lightning bolt, water=water drop, fire=flame, ice=icicle, light=sun, darkness=inverse triforce? What is the darkness symbol supposed to be?

Reverse image source on a inverted triforce took me to this one, probably as good as anything, don't think the two companies are opposed to sharing things here and there, that or it might be a homage.

Looks like the hippies have a lot to say about it too, so maybe something different though none of them seemed to associate it with darkness other than LoZ.

In a recent editorial, I theorized that the Dark Triforce might just be an idea, and if Lorule was specifically created to mirror Hyrule, then that idea is still valid. However, if Lorule is a completely new world in its own right, then the Dark Triforce would be a very real object. So if the Dark Triforce is a real object, what could this imply?

Just as Lorule appears to be a dark reflection of Hyrule, could this mean that the Dark Triforce is a dark reflection of the Triforce? This would imply that it was created for a purpose, and to represent certain prized qualities within a person. So who created it? What for? And what does it represent?

Let’s start off with who created the Dark Triforce. In my theory about Lorule being Demise’s Realm, I suggested that Demise created it, and only made the three different components of it, so that it further paralleled the Triforce. But in nearly every game in which the Triforce is mentioned, it is also mentioned that it was created by the three Golden Goddesses, and if you think back to Skyward Sword, the legend that we are told at the start of the game is of the war between the Demon King (Demise) and Hylia. This legend also states that Hylia is protecting the Ultimate Power (which is shown to be the Triforce), with absolutely no mention of the Golden Goddesses who actually created it. So does this hold true for the Dark Triforce?

We know that Demise seeks the Triforce, and because of this, we can rule out the idea that Demise is protecting the Dark Triforce, because why would he need both? In my theory about Lorule being Demise’s Realm, I suggested that the Dark Triforce was somehow created after Demise’s defeat, and I reckon that holds true here. When Demise failed to attain the Triforce and use it to take over the world, those who employed Demise for this mission chose to instead create their own, dark version of the Triforce, and build an entirely new world (Lorule) around it.

By this reasoning, Lorule is its own world, not an older one that has been repurposed, nor an alternate-timeline version of a previously seen parallel world to Hyrule. So why is Ganon constantly trying to take over Hyrule if there’s a whole other world that could be his? Because Ganondorf was the reincarnation of Demise’s hatred not his purpose; Ganondorf was the reincarnation of Demise’s hatred for Hylia and his lust to rule the world that she protected.

So that explains that, now, getting back to who created the Dark Triforce: just as the Golden Goddesses, creators of the Triforce, employed Hylia to watch over the Triforce and the land they created, I believe that another three deities employed Demise to get the Triforce and transform the world. Now, I’m not saying that there are three Grotty Goddesses that are named Nid, Eroraf, and Uryan, but given Lorule’s tendency to parallel Hyrule, I’d expect something similar.

This doesn’t mean that these three other deities are inherently evil, as can be seen in that Hilda appears to be a good-natured inhabitant of Lorule, it just means that they aren’t as righteous as the Golden Goddesses. This can be seen through the fact that they lowered themselves to employing the Demon King to make them a world of their own. But because Demise specifically went after the Triforce and tried to corrupt the land of the Golden Goddesses, this could indicate that these other three deities do have something against the Golden Goddesses for one reason or another.

Continued in the link.

*Runs in like I have a lynel on my heels, hands you a basket filled with warm drinks and sweet snacks with a note, promptly passes out without elaborating* Greetings, first of all, how have you been doing? Also, Happy Late Tears of The Kingdom release date. Second of all, finally an excuse to ramble about your works as much as the Tumblr word account limit will allow me in an extensive way like a greek orator holding assembly like Plato talking about Atlantis. Or well at least some, cause if I were to ramble about everything you've posted so far we'd be here all day (SPECIALLY if I were to gush about Time and Twilight), so I'll limit myself to an arguable top six for today.

Ahem. *Clears throat* Anyway if I have to pick any works that are my favorite of yours, my very first pick would likely be the Fear Room.

Wind and his intense trauma about losing Aryll? His desperation as an elder brother who was supposed to protect her and thought he failed again? Wild and all of the ghosts of his kingdom that haunts his steps because he died way back when because he failed and the feeling of survivor's guilt being in full display? That if he could he'd trade his life for theirs so he wouldn't need to live with the most intense feeling of failure out of all the Links and to look at Hyrule and Zelda and everything like the pages of an old faded book? To say goodbyes to people he doesn't know anymore? Sky and his feelings over never being enough? Of always being just a second too late while the people he cares for are in danger and out of his reach, further made worse by the fact Demise's Curse took hold because of his actions/inaction in Skyward Sword and that feeling further exacerbated by Impa through the game? Hyrule not wanting all that he went through to be for naught and not wanting to be all alone again, specially given that without Zelda he wouldn't be able to keep Ganon at bay alone? Twilight's pure anguish and desperation of seeing bad things happen to his loved ones and losing them again and again and being unable to do anything about it? Time being so afraid of losing control over the Fierce Deity and being so, so, so tired. Tired of being strong, tired of being thrust into adventure after adventure and having his agency denied again and again on wether or not he wants to continue on or not? That he has been strong for so long that he not only just cracks, but BREAKS. Warriors pulling his punches because even if it looks like his shield brothers betrayed him and he's tired of traitors he doesn't want to believe it and doesn't want to hurt them? Four failing to save Dot, his childhood friend and in turn likely losing not only Ezlo but the colors and Shadow, literally pieces of himself after he jigsaw puzzled them back together and likely can't see himself living without them? LEGEND WITH THE KOHOLINT TRAUMA? Not to mention all of the other people he lost over the years, his parents, his uncle, technically Sir Raven of we go by the manga who was basically like a brother to him (also know as an incredibly gorgeous man I am itching to write for after the Fairy Tale series is done), Marin, technically Ravio and Hilda if Ravio doesn't go to live in his house after LBTW's, and finally Reader's reaction and lingering trepidation after it's all said and done, it's really well written horror and the horror enthusiast in me delights in it even if it's pure pain and my dog will never not be startled when I giddily cackle over it, 1000/10, would absolutely read again. Plus it inspired stuff for certain parts of the Fairy Tale au.

Tending Temptations, First and Reader are "Just Friends", calling them by their name and Prince Twilight- *takes a deep breath* What it I just die? Those are also a one shot and drabble that will need their own post, but let's just say that the frequency I reach when I read any of them and makes me way too soft and should probably only be heard by small mice, because I adore the way you portray Time and Twilight and First specially given there's maybe only one other author who writes them as well (shout out to Dreaming of Lu and their impeccable Time and First takes) and I love the way you write Twilight with all my heart, I don't think there's anyone who's come as close to delighting me when writing him so really, thank you so much for all your work in the fandom!

And finally, if predictably, the Fairy Tale and Dragon au, Dragon au will have to be it's own thing but I feel like the Fairy Tale au is probably a bit self explanatory since I'm writing a series based on it xD, but also I really like seeing the Links throw into a sudden situation and how they'll adapt and react to it and a great way to do that is to throw them into Fairy Tales we know or even in myths (*cough cough* Just saying, Twilight would kill it as Tam Lin and Time would make an amazing Odysseus) and you have some really unique ideas, so definitely a must read and what inspired me into trying to expand on it in greater detail (when life isn't kicking me in the ribs that is).

Overall, you're a great writer, and reading your stuff after bad days is an almost sure fire way to brighten my day and to make anyone's day, so thank you for all your work in the fandom! Hope you're doing well!

-Just an Anon on a Stroll 🐚/WintertimeStoryteller.

Dreaming of Lu is truly a master of their craft.

I'm glad you enjoyed the Fear Room so much! I don't write horror! Hardly ever! XD I thought I would have botched it.

And I'm sure you'll be happy to know that an expansion of Legend's segment for Fairytale au is queued up for later this year and that Dragon au is also getting a full sized fic expansion beginning in August. (Warrior centric, but I digress. XD)

I'm glad you enjoy the way I write Twilight though! He's one of my favorite so I'm happy to do him justice. :D

#pinky replies #thanks for letting me know #<3 #always happy to hear from you :D #i like your thoughts
