Legend of Zelda really heard the "what sort of being chooses an orphaned child/teenager as their chosen one?!?" moral quandary and answered repeatedly with "another orphaned child/teenager" and/or "his best friend who doesn't know who else to ask" and "his soulmate, who is in danger, again, and who's heart breaks every time she has to ask him to fight" and you know what? Those are the only valid answers ever.
#the legend of zelda#legend of zelda#loz#link#hylia's chosen hero#zelda#hylia#zelink#hylink#other beings selecting a chosen one: the fate of the world is on your shoulders because... uh... FATE!#zelda/hylia: link? im scared! please help me!#like even biblically most 'chosen one's were either called as adults or simply told in childhood to get ready#not 'the apocalypse is coming next week unless you fix it'

I like the Zelda franchise and ship zelink a normal amount. Obviously.
#deciding to post these because my friends told me i should#im obsessed with this game and will in fact not shut up about it if given the chance#zelda#the legend of zelda#link#zelink#id like to reiterate these tags that I've used before ->#my older siblings thought that they were just getting me into a game they liked too#WRONG its now an entire part of my personality and is always one stray thought away from becoming my main focus#aml speaks#aml memes#can you tell i have a favorite meme format

Linktober day 6: Fear/Terror
The guardians in botw have always struck a deep and genuine fear within me. This is why even though I think botw is a better game I do enjoy exploring more in totk because the guardians are gone. I enjoy being able to hang out in the forgotten temple without fear
#not pictured: when me and my sister were playing botw and we made it to the top of the tower in hyrule field thats surrounded by guardians#(btw thank u revalis gale) anyways and i looked down and was like surely we're out of range of the guardians and i told my sister to shoot#one of tjem. and it turns out we were not out of range. and the guardian hit link with the laser and he ragdolled and fell through the hole#out of the tower. it was so funny. we were laughing so hard. link was just limply falling and then the game over screen faded in#my art#linktober#linktober 2024#loz#tloz#legend of zelda#the legend of zelda#artists on tumblr#loz fanart#botw#breath of the wild

While I am definitely a supporter of “they shared the bed” in the Hateno house
I just know for a fact it didn’t happen instantly… instead Link would take power naps whenever Zelda worked with the kids or in her study. He can go a long time without sleeping and is more than willing to sacrifice the bed so Zelda can actually get rest. She protests at first but admittedly does understand she just fought Ganon back for a century. She needs actual sleep.
Instead, it gradually became evident that the longer Zelda was back, the more and more the trauma from the Great Calamity and the fight with Ganon presented itself. It was a slow overtake of her mind, the exhaustion and shock from it all numbing her until she began to accept the reality that she was safe. Link was safe. Hyrule was saved.
And with her guard lowered, the fear, sadness, and anger came back in the forms of internal warfare. Her rest was disturbed by nightmares, her magic completely sapped from her being. She had nothing to defend herself from it.
Well… not nothing. She had Link.
And in these weeks of getting to know each other again, of finding the Link post-Shrine of Resurrection much more open with his emotions, she knows her faith in him has never faltered. And that is how she knows she is still safe.
And it takes time to come to that level of comfort and genuine vulnerability, more because of their own individual traumas than their relationship. And that’s when they realize everything is a little bit easier when they’re in each other’s arms. The nightmares become blissful sleep, fragments of dreams comforting them, but not as much as the serenity being so close with the other brings.
It was a tentative, shy question at first. “Will you come to bed with me?” “I just can’t seem to sleep very well and I know if I’m with you, I’m safe.”
And the answer was always going to be yes. It didn’t make sense not to. Link would do anything and everything to keep Zelda safe and happy, so peaceful sleep was definitely included.
And that’s how they found themselves healing together. And it was ridiculously easy to share a bed and just sleep. To rest. To know they were doing good work all over Hyrule and still finding the time to make a home for themselves. To be that home for each other. That peace.
#and that my friends is how zelink ultimately fell in love again with each other again#and how they fell into a domestic relationship without specifically establishing it#instead it just kinda happened one day without any dramatic declaration#just a casual acceptance that they are each other’s home#and that they don’t need to announce anything bc it is theirs and theirs alone#everyone understands it to be true without having to be told#annnnnd then they’re separated all over again 🙃#zelink#botw zelink#loz botw#botw#link botw#the legend of zelda#botw link#zelda botw#zelink botw#the legend of zelda breath of the wild#totk zelink

Which Link is most likely to get banned from Olive Garden
And if you feel like it, tell me who you picked and why!! (And what they did to get banned)
If you’d like to do something similar for the Zeldas, here you go:
#lu chain#linked universe#legend of zelda#they’re my silly little guys#and they do silly little things#at least one of them is definitely getting banned from an olive garden#bear with me and let’s pretend olive garden even exists for them#personally i think it would be wind#second to get banned would be wild and hyrule#they’re all up to something#loz#all the links#the whole chain my beloveds tbh#but i can admit they’d get banned from several restaurants#for one reason or another#they’re up to some stupid antics#and i love it#ill shut up now#actually i have more to say#actually my friend does#but i agree with him#wind wouldn’t be the one kicked out#he would get a warning#and time and twi would be told to put their kid on a leash#wild on the other hand#that fucker is an adult#(depending on who you ask)#he is fully capable of being kicked out

No one:
Literally No One:
Me, running on three hours of sleep and only spite and coffee keeping my mortal vessel functioning, also trying to get all of the figurines in Minish Cap to scratch the completionist itch: We, as both the Zelda Fandom and Lu Fandom, don't really talk enough about First, The Hero of Men and The Original Attempted Calamity Hero huh?
And by that, I mean these gentlemen:
#Have a lot of thoughts about them all a lot of the time#Someone insert that shaking hands meme here#I feel like there's a use for it#legendofzelda#breath of the wild#botw#minish cap#four swords#four swords adventures#skyward sword#linked universe#something something how history likes to rhyme and for every hero whose story gets told at least one is not told in full#specially not after the adventure ends#kinda want to write some thoughts I have on these guys but idk#If I had a nickel for everytime Nintendo mentioned a Hero before our Link but did not elaborate further that isn't the Hero of Time#the Hero of Winds or the Hero of Legend#I'd have about four nickels (if we count the OG Zelda's mentioned Link too)#Which isn't a lot but it's probably weird that it happened four times#No mind to think no will to break no voice to cry suffering-#Wait wrong fandom#lu first

So apparently totk isn’t getting a dlc here’s some botw->totk things that make me go mmmmh
#Ok the last one is just me coping with the fact that they got rid of elemental weapons and arrows for the fuse mechanic#they could have just gave you more power if you matched the elements correctly or some fucked up things if you don't#also this is just some of the things that make me go mmmh#like I could have added that in botw everyone was like wow link it's like you can slow down time and then they gave zelda time powers#or durians#like c'mon man#link#zelda#riju#yunobo#botw#breath of the wild#totk#tears of the kingdom#this has been in the drafts for a good while#i just found out they don’t let gorons in gerudo town anymore#i hate it here#and when you talk to robbie his sick ass guitar rift isn't there anymore :(#my friend told me this one apparently riju doesn't talk in gerudo tounge not once??#I'm not going to check that shit again#really hope the no dlc isn't true cause this game's story is fucking ass#all the more reason to not take this game as canon#also they straight up just got rid of Kass#totk critical#totk salt#snix talks

me, thinking that i have at least a base level understanding of botw: :)
blue, about to write a 1,000+ word essay that is going to completely revamp my understanding of the game and interpretation of its events: bada bing bada boom
i dont know how you do it. i am incredibly impressed and using all of this for fic inspiration. keep writing
every time someone asks me how i do this shit i have to regrettably inform them that the real genuine answer is that i am fucking insane. my 2 passions in life are writing and video games and the place where the 2 converge fascinates me to no end and i am that special kind of crazy that is capable of latching onto something and not thinking about anything else for 10 years. so. the only thing i have cared about deeply for the last several years of my life has been the way video games are written and constructed. and zelda is one of the most interestingly constructed franchises i have found to date. these games are just like. the absolute perfect story for my brain to work with and i truly do not know who i would be without them. and i am genuinely incredibly grateful that ive been able to build a platform where people like. CARE about what i have to say and take the time to ask me to think about the games because like. i would be doing it ANYWAY but knowing that there are people who actually read my analysis and appreciate the amount of thought i put into this stuff makes me really happy lol
#i sincerely think video games are an art form and that so many stories benefit from being told interactively via video games#and i'm especially fascinated with the way loz chooses to tell its stories because the games are almost always designed so that the player#actively makes every decision in the storyline even though every game only has one preset ending. that's SO COOL.#ive found myself frustrated recently by rpgs that are super cutscene heavy and i was struggling to articulate why until i went back and#looked critically at the way zelda games are designed and i realized that there isn't a single cutscene in loz that openly takes away the#player's autonomy. cutscenes are almost always reserved for dialog or the beginnings of fight scenes but link almost never makes choices#without the player's input and that's a huge part of what keeps the games engaging! YOU are link. he's not a vessel you occasionally#control. he is you. his decisions are always yours.#and that's generally easier to do with a less complex storyline but the way botw kept that autonomy despite its complex story is SO clever#by making the cinematic cutscenes MEMORIES there's never any percieved loss of autonomy because the player understands that this is#something that has already happened so obviously there's no way they can alter link's choices. that's SO SMART#ANYWAY. i didn't mean for this to be a tag essay about video game mechanics sorry but tldr i am so so so passionate about this LOL#if you cant tell. very few people irl will listen to me talk for this long. this is why i love tumblr#asks

Finished the video game
[Image description: A short two-panel comic based on the ending of The Legend of Zelda: Tears of the Kingdom. In the first panel, Zelda looks up, smiling slightly, and says "I was sleeping all this time... but you woke me up, Link." In the second panel, Link is shown giving a thumbs up and thinking to himself, "I'm not telling her that I farmed her for dragon parts." End ID]
#art#2023#legend of zelda#loz#tears of the kingdom#totk#link#zelda#totk spoilers#great game. bad story. only interesting plot point was that zelda was the dragon#and guess what was the one thing i got spoiled on. by being told directly irl#described#oh also by 'telling her' i mean like. sign language or VERY in private. im a selectively mute link truther and VERY adamant about this

Below is an image that will spoil the geoglyph/master sword plotting and quest so if you haven’t done that yet I would avoid the image.
Image ID: [It is a text post in the style of the avatar the last airbender meme which originally had Sokla sayin ‘my first girlfriend turned into the moon’ and Zuko responding ‘that’s rough, buddy’. The image now reads ‘my first girlfriend turned into a dragon’ with Link’s face pasted over Sokka’s and Sidon’s face pasted over Zuko’s with him saying ‘that’s rough buddy’.]

OMG IM GLAD IM NOT THE ONLY ONE BOTHERED BY PARTS OF TOTKS STORY LOLL I am not a fan of the sages at all
YEAH THE STORY IS MY BIGGEST COMPLAINT. and absolutely agreed on the sage stuff. i like the new sages because of my attachment to them from botw but as far as the actual sage plotline goes i don't give any shits about it.
#asks#trixie tag#it's like i said earlier how botw's story revolves around it being an open world game#you're told the main point of conflict at the beginning and the actual story of botw is filling in the blanks and adding context#it works because all of the memories are disconnected enough so that even though there is a certain order you can do it in any order you#like and have it still make sense. i suppose the only exception would be how zelda goes from hating link to being his friend if you missed#the yiga clan memory but like it's not a huge deal imo#but in totk the story just. does not work#like i keep saying this but i got the master sword after getting the third sage. so by the time the zelda puppet plot twist happened not#just the player but also link knows where she really is?? and there's also that one memory where ganondorf is literally disguised as her lol#another example of it not working as well would be when i found the memory that showed sonia's grave begore i found the memory of her death#scene. so it made her death scene A LOT less impactful#sorry for going on a tangent the story is. not very good jdkwjd#totk spoilers
