#Ravio/Shadow

[orgaslink]

Totally ok if it's not your thing, since I kinda believe I'm the only on in the planet into this ship, but, n° 25, kisses in the rain with Ravio and Shadow? Again, no pressure, I just wanted to ask anyway :)

Ooh! I like this one, thank you for the ask! I love Ravio and I love Shadow so why not bump them both together to make kissy noises in the rain?

Hope you enjoy!

Somehow, someway, their worlds had collided and neither could make any sense of why and what for. In many ways, it could be seen as a curse, a nightmare that plagued Ravio’s world and threw the kingdom in shadow. Ravio, however, couldn’t bring himself to see it as anything other than a dream; a dream that was anything but if the cool rain gently cascading over them was any indication of reality.

“Shadow! Wait, I—” Ravio didn’t know how Shadow had ended up here, had no idea when or how these feelings inside of him grew to the extent that they had, but he also didn’t care. The only thing that mattered to him was Shadow, and that said entity had his back to Ravio and was walking away.

Ravio couldn’t, wouldn’t let that happen. Not now, not ever.

He’d stepped out of the shelter they’d taken from the rain, the fine drops quickly gathering to drip down long ears as Ravio reached out for Shadow but was hindered by his own robe and scarf. Something in Ravio’s voice had thankfully made Shadow stop in his tracks, though he still kept his back facing Ravio.

The wet sounds of boots through puddles accompanied Ravio’s panting as he caught up to the other. He wanted to reach out and touch but something held him back; maybe it was his own hesitancy, maybe it was his worry that Shadow didn’t feel the same. All he knew for sure was that the feeling that held him back wasn’t from his own doubt as there wasn’t a speck of that to be find in any fibre of his being.

“Shadow, please,” desperate pleas from a desperate voice filled with the worry that his chance was literally slipping through his fingers like a shadow bathed in light. His Shadow, the one he’d grown so accustomed to, turned to look over his shoulder at the merchant, expression matching Ravio’s own in the hurt his crystal blue eyes displayed.

“Ravio, don’t. I can’t do this; we can’t do this. I’ll only hurt you when I have to leave and I can’t do that to you.” As if that would be the end of both the conversation and whatever this fleeting thing between the two was, Shadow made to walk away again.

This time it was his footsteps hindered, but not by something as mundane as clothing. No, for Shadow it was a steady pressure around his wrist that halted his steps closely followed by the weight of Ravio’s forehead pressing into his shoulder blades.

Shadow’s ears twitched to hear the quiet confession of Ravio’s words over the sound of the worsening rain; they were both getting soaked through, clothes beginning to stick uncomfortably as the rain continued to pour as though the very sky was crying over their situation.

“I don’t care,” words quiet but no less unsure, growing louder and more confident with each one uttered between chapped lips cooled by rain drops.

“I don’t care, Shadow. If we only have now and this moment, then so be it. No, I don’t want to lose you but I would rather make the most of any time that we do have than to regret having let you go without even trying to fight for us.”

A hitch in breath before Shadow shallowed, the swell of emotion in his gut so fierce it made his heart pound. And then the world spun. Or more accurately Shadow spun as Ravio pulled at his wrist to turn Shadow to face him.

Their lips met and nothing else in the world mattered beyond this moment and the two of them, one of Shadow’s hands acting on instinct to cup Ravio’s cheek and bring the two closer together. Right then, there were in a bubble, a bubble of just this two of them and the feeling of each others lips pressed together. Even the sensation of the rain falling over them fading away to the intensity of their moment.

It was Ravio who pulled away first, but not by much, resting his forehead to Shadow’s and sharing the radiated heat of being so close.

“Just… stay. Please.”

A promise in the form of another kiss was pressed to Ravio’s parted lips. “Always.”

[1caru]

some silly late valentine's doodles for y'all <3

[sasoop]

LU AU where Dark Link gathers all the other Dark and Shadow Links but Ravio gets caught up in the mix. He pretends to be another evil doppelganger to survive, but Shadow realizes he's a faker by day1. Shadow n Ravio team up to screw Dink over so that they can find their heroes. Doodle is from November, completely forgot to post it.

yeahhg doodles (first canvas was drawn with tonta)

I cannot describe the kaleidoscope of emotions I got from reading @not-freyja ’s “References” before bed time after a long day of academic work.

So I’m going to process this with drawings. This is my first “large scale”-ish fan art project.

Again, if you’ve not read Freyja’s brilliant 19k chapter, go have a wild ride!

Day 1: Mirror

I don't really have the time to do full artworks/renders for Linktober, so I've decided to go down the route of somewhat colored sketches instead. (And then put a shit ton of filters and stuff around it lmao)

I couldn't decide between Midna, Shadow and Ravio for the "Mirror" prompt, because all three of them immediately came to my mind when I first read it - so I ultimately just decided I would immediately burn myself out by drawing all three :D

I did have fun drawing this though, it was my first time actually somewhat finishing a drawing of both Shadow and Midna. (I've started but never finished a number of drawings with them whoops)

(Also all the poses are reference from pinterest lmao)

sibling bonding activity

“I won’t judge you for liking your counterpart, Legend. I…”Four pauses, and Legend raises a brow at the smaller while they chew on their words. “I’m no hypocrite.” “Ah?” “My boyfriend. I’ve told you about him. Shadow? He is, in all technicality, my counterpart. He looks almost just like me, with minor differences—like you and Ravio. Except, I hope Ravio hasn’t tried to kill you or take over the kingdom.” “He couldn’t do that if he really wanted to. Did…did Shadow—” “Yeah.” Legend blinks. “Fuck.” Four breathes out a laugh. “Yeah.” “You’re fucked up,”Legend decides with a snort. “You were into him trying to kill you? Seriously?” “He was really funny when doing it, okay? How could I resist a dork who’s that bad at murder?”Four huffs. And if they thought that would convince Legend that they’re sane, they were mistaken.

The Links at a Haunted House

It’s spooky season 👻🎃👻🎃

So that means it’s time to see how the Links are in haunted houses:

Time: deadpan. The entire way through. Jumpscare? I don’t think so I saw you coming a mile away. Everyone hides behind him. It’s debated whether the actors are scared of him. Stands in the back so everyone stops hiding behind him. Except for Warriors and Wind. He’ll let them hide behind him.

Hyrule: the hand-holder. Emotional support for everyone else. Not that scared personally, but helps the people who are terrified through.

Four: so into this shit. Is grinning the whole way through. Probably runs a haunted house in his backyard.

Warriors: the leader at the beginning, middle or end of the group at the end. Hyper-vigilant. Pretends not to be scared, is absolutely scared. Doesn’t help that his scarf seems to draw every actor in. Legend tells him to leave it at home but Warriors never does.

Twilight: Either an actor, or is leading the way through. Always holds Wild’s hand (Wild doesn’t need it, but it makes Twilight feel better about not losing anyone). Insists on the tried and true human chain technique. Somehow gets separated anyways.

Wild: Also into this. Came for the vibes. Will turn the wrong way if he’s in the lead. Don’t let him lead. Will be the chainsaw guy if he’s an actor and will love doing it.

Legend: Pretends not to be scared, is actually terrified. He doesn’t like the dark or loud noises. Has probably punched an actor before (he felt really bad about it afterwards). Never bring him to a haunted house, he Doesn’t Like It.

Wind: Everyone tries to convince him not to go since he’s still young, still goes anyways. Holds hands with Warriors, and everyone is surprised when he’s Warriors’ emotional support. Plays the same role as Hyrule: holds hands to help the others, but isn’t too scared himself. Except for bird attractions. Bird attractions scare the shit out of him.

Sky: Easy target because he seems like he’ll get scared the easiest. He isn’t. No one knows what scares him but it’s not haunted houses. Is the Number One Emotional Support Link for these sorts of things.

+Bonus!

Shadow: The actor 100% of the time.

Ravio: Scaredy cat. Will cling to someone (usually Legend) the whole time. Will scream. A lot. Don’t let him or Legend in a haunted house together alone, there’s no guarantees they’ll be able to get out.

Spirit: brings an ouija board.

Why don’t people write more fanfics about Shadow and Midna? Shadow was the one to experience the whole ‘breaking the mirror’ trope first.

They should be besties
