[botw-imagines]

(mod makar here!!!!) this is a little self indulgent since i'm in the process of drafting a new botw fic and i've reached a writer's block orz so!!! what do u think/headcanons on things that make link, link! like what are things he does and doesn't know about himself? i.e. ambidextrous or allergic to cats?

((ayyy heya mod Makar!! :”DD i’m so glad you decided to send me something, and little quirk hcs are my absolute favorite and i love botw Link i’m sO EXCITED. sorry to hear abt the writers block, that always sucks, but best of luck with your fic!! i hope these help ya out

-ambidextrous, indeed!! i think he just defaults to his right hand because that’s what he saw everyone doing/his dad said he should do, and didn’t really register that he can use both fine until someone points it out to him lol. after that he starts switching.

-not exactly fidget-y– his posture is great and he never does it when he’s focused, but when he Has Nothing To Do, he’ll just kinda mindlessly pick at something like the bark on a tree, or fiddle with his clothes.

-not a picky eater in the slightest, this boy will eat whatever’s in front of him happily, but he is allergic to peanuts. his face gets all puffy and he can’t properly do anything!!! so he hates it and will avoid peanuts whatever the cost.

-((like i said in the last two i think he really doesn’t like not having something to do?? whether it’s training or fighting or cooking or preparing or even just staring blankly into a fire, he needs to have a goal or he gets really uncomfortable. he’s so used to people expecting a Specific Task from him at every moment.))

-loves cats, likes just being next to them and scritching them, but probably not allergic to them imo. however, he L O V E S dogs and probably is very mildly allergic to them but he does not CARE he will sneeze and cry all he needs to if it means he can pet a dog.

-literally s o m a n y weird party trick things with his body, like turning his belly-button inside out and touching his thumb to his wrist in a horrific way. he loves showing them to people and will just silently and with a blank expression, do a weird thing with his shoulder blade and all his friends S C R E A M.

-i don’t know if cereal exists in hyrule but if it did he would pour the milk before the cereal i’m ((kinda)) sorry ((he’s such a passive and easygoing person but this is one of the things he is UNEXPLAINABLY STUBBORN ABOUT all of the other champions + Zelda try so hard to get him to stop and they c a n t))

-quite a few birthmarks and scars, even when they were little, and Mipha played connect-the-dots with them in an effort to cheer lil’ Link up. she was successful, even though Link only had a few from training back then so they probably only found a weird-looking fish and a triangle ((Link was happy about that because it’s the Triforce, Mipha it’s a sign!!)). Link is absolutely riddled with scars of all sorts now, so once he wakes up from the shrine of restoration and things quiet down, I bet he gets a quill or plays connect-the-dots again, alone this time.

he doesn’t like it as much.
