The Legend Of Zelda

After Zelda starts crying at the Spring of Power, Link turns to her before his memory fades. I hope he comforted her in that moment

Link rubbed the back of his neck at the way the doll gave him a beaming smile and seemed to believe that he himself was magical. He slightly shakes his head and waves his hand, trying to communicate that he wasn’t actually magical, but rather he believed in magic. He supposed Sheikah technology could be seen as magic? But, he wasn’t a Sheikah, just someone who inherited a piece of their technology to help him along his journey.

He perks up at her question, and knowing that there wasn’t really any other way to communicate the answer, he straightens up his body and speaks softly. “Link,” he replies short and sweetly, his voice quiet yet level and calm. It wasn’t like he was unable to speak; he has never lost his voice nor did he damage it, he merely just preferred not speaking if the situation enabled him to. “Yours?” he inquires towards the doll just as softly as before.

Link stared at the seemingly dead frog, quickly wiping away the lingering mucus that came from the frog’s lips from his own, a sweatdrop rolling down the side of his head as he too waited for any kind of response. Maybe this frog really was a prince? He only knew of a princess of this land.

His eyebrows slightly knit into a frown at the dejected expression on the doll’s face before he jumps in surprise at the shrill croak that escaped the once-lifeless frog, taking a step towards quickly to catch the frog, but unfortunately it disappears into the grass before he’s able to catch it.

“...” another sweatdrop rolls the side of his head as the moment of silence passes between the two of them. He perks up at her words, before he rubs the back of his neck and smiles apologetically. He didn’t think it was going to work in the first place, but he felt bad that this girl had been let down.

A sheepish smile curls onto the blond’s lips and he nods at her words, his smiling turning warmer and less nervous when the doll perks her head up towards him. He thinks about it for a minute before nodding firmly at her question. He did indeed believe magic was real, perhaps not magic that could turn a prince into a frog, but magic was magic.

Link bites his lip as the doll gives an eager nod, confirming that she did, in fact, want him to kiss this frog, who again seemed rather stressed and in discomfort. Really, he felt pity for this poor frog and he wanted to decline, but this doll looked so cute and very eager, and he didn’t have the heart to say no to her.

He gulps as she holds out the frog towards him, staring into its beady eyes before gathering up all the courage he could. He had the vaguest of memories that someone tried to do the same thing to him before, perhaps maybe even try to make him eat it, but for now he pushes that as a thought for later and squeezes his eyes shut, quietly apologizing to the frog in his mind before he forces his lips onto its own.

I appreciate that nintendo is enabling my need to draw everyone taking selfies

So my sketch (work in progress) of this just broke 600 notes in less than 24 hours.

Let’s see if the finished piece can get the same love! Thank you to @drsupermonk and @caitercates for some critiques as I was working!!

Link watches the small doll run over to the frog with widened eyes, his mind still taking quite some time to process what he was witnessing at the moment. A sweatdrop rolls down his head as he sees just how uncomfortable the amphibian seemed to feel, but he doesn’t say anything and instead watches the girl--doll trot back up to him.

He blinks at her words but gives a slow nod as his response. A spell? Did she mean like, the kind of spell that turned men into frogs? He was pretty sure that was a fairy tale, though...

His eyes snapped open at the request, his face turning the slightest bit pale at the thought of kissing the amphibious creature, and one glance at it made him sure that the frog definitely didn’t want to be kissed by him either, or at least that’s what he thought from gazing into its own wide eyes.

He feels bad outrightly refusing this doll, though, so he points to the frog and then to himself as if to ask if she’s really sure he should be the one to kiss it.

Link’s eyes grow wide when he suddenly feels something wrap around his leg, his head immediately darting downwards in alarm. His sapphire-blue eyes grow wide at the sight of what seemed to be a doll clinging to him, which was quite a shocking sight, especially since it seemed to be talking to him.

The first thought that immediately came to him was how could a doll be talking to him?? But, with the distress that was clearly written all over the doll’s face, he takes a second to process her words. Mr. Hoppy..he didn’t have any memories of his childhood, but he was pretty sure that “Mr. Hoppy” was a nickname of sorts for a frog. Could that be what this..doll was searching for?

Reluctant to take his eyes off of the doll in fear that she might just disappear, he looks around the field in search for a frog of any sorts. After a few seconds, he spots a small frog commonly found in tall grass to be hopping along a short distance from where they were. He points to it and looks down at the doll as a way to say that the frog she may be searching for was over there.
