HALLOWEEN COUPLE COSTUMES + hq

oikawa toru

barbie and ken. it's 100% his idea too. ideally he'd want you to go as the default barbie, with the pink dress and heels, while he'd be surfer ken with his shirt off.

nishinoya yuu

walter white and jesse pinkman. the previous year he had went as pitbull nation (rapper pitbull) with tanaka but he wanted to do a couples costume with you instead this year. so going as walter white meant he could reuse his bald cap. the two of you would go as them when they're wearing their yellow scrubs.

kageyama tobio

pro volleyball players...

kuroo tetsuro

regina george and cady heron. your friends refused to go as the plastics so doing it as a couples costume was your next best bet. when you told kuroo you wanted to do a mean girls inspired costume, he assumed you'd be regina and he'd be aaron. but you insisted he go as cady, since they are a more recognisable duo, and he has a hard time saying no to you. on the bright side, he made it work.

sakusa kiyoomi

men in black. low effort but extremely recognisable. he doesn't pose for the photos properly but it's okay because he's serving face anyway.

kenma kuzome

link and zelda. of course it has to be something video game inspired, but also he's lazy and doesn't want to put too much effort into his costume, so link is ideal since he can just buy the whole thing online. but he'd combust when he sees you as princess zelda tbh.

yamaguchi tadashi

taki tachibana and mitsuha miyamizu. he is lowk a sap for romance movies so he'd flip at the idea of getting to dress as one with you. he wouldn't mind putting time into preparing a costume, but the fact he just needs to dress in his school uniform and a wig is definitely plus tbh.

tsukishima kei

marie antoinette and the cake. tsukishima isn't nessecarily lazy but he doesn't care for halloween and therefore doesn't want to spend a lot of time/money on a costume. you suggest hundreds of low effort costume ideas to him and he rejects them everytime but this one resonates with him. especially as it means he gets to carry around and snack on a slice of cake. let them eat cake!

ushijima wakatoshi

mummies. the ancient egyptian kind, not the parental kind. it's impossible to find many costumes that would fit his stature, so your options are extremely limited. in the end you opt to just roll him up in toilet paper and call it a day.

iwaizumi hajime

spartans. you need an excuse for him to show off those athletic trainer muscles 👀

tendou satori

ringmaster and circus clown. it's up to you which one you'd rather be because he really doesn't mind. on one hand he thinks it would be awesome to dress up as a clown but also he'd love to see you as one, that would be so cute. plus he could definitely rock a red tailcoat.

[mirensiart]

I have a whole lot of questions.. .(answer at your risk)(oh also some of them are about oc)

1. Who is pen in your oc comic? Wasn’t he in that one where Chain was like, “Who is that girl?” and the girl was literally just Key

2. Do you like when people write fics where Marin is alive? If so, do you like the ones where she lives with Legend and Ravio?

3. Does Legend know who Malon is? Because in Oracle of Seasons, there’s a Cusco girl who says that her dad, Talon, is climbing a mountain or something… I’m pretty sure that girl is named Malon

4. Do you like fics where if Ravio saw Wars he would be like, “Hey! I know you!”?

5. How do you see Twilights and Dusk relationship as friends. I’ve seen a lot of fics where he just isn’t fond of Dusk and like never talks so her.

6. Do you like it when people say Fable and Legend are siblings and like they act goofy around each other?

7. When people write fics with Wind in them, do you prefer it when Wind acts more like a pirate and swears like every second or when he is a baby who just cry’s every minute?

8. This is really random but are Riju and Wild friends? (She’s like one of my favorite Zelda characters that’s why I asked)

9. Do you think Wild still has his champion abilities?

10. Have you read This is an Adjuration? If not… READ IT!! It’s probably the best LU fic I ever read

11. Have you read To Isolate? An also must read! It’s amazing! I love it so much!!

12. Do you think that Hyrule has a blood curse? Like the whole thing that he could revive Ganon?

13. Do you think Four has four different conversations in his mind? A lot of people write it that way which I love however, Jojo in one of comics (the one where four splits) says that he doesn’t have four different voices in his head!

14. Could Chain technically make his chain so long that Key could go where ever she wants without him having to follow her?

15. Have you read any other Zelda comic series? I’ve been reading Bonus Link and I really love it! You should definitely read it.

No pressure to answer any of these. You also don’t have to answer them all! (no pressure!) :) I love your art by the way!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! :3

Ok so first of all, a lot of these questions are fic related and I don't read a lot of fics in general cause I don't have a lot of free time, so between drawing or reading I usually go with drawing lol

That said, I will answer to these without the "fic knowledge" but with just my general opinion on the matter

1. Pen is @chiangyorange 's Link OC! We like to draw our zelink ocs hanging out for fun :) also you should check out chiangy cause their aus are *chef's kiss*

2. Haven't read those fics, but I'm not against the idea? I have seen marin/legend/ravio around as an ot3 here on tumblr and I think that's super cute, so I approve of it

3. When you're asking me this do you mean as in, in my pain sharing au comic? Cause if that's the case then I leave it up to your own interpretation. The boys already know malon in this au, since it's set after the wolfie reveal and at that point in jojo's LU comic they've been to Lon Lon Ranch, so if they meet up with malon in this au, it's not like legend knowing her beforehand means anything lol

4. I do like the idea of ravio knowing wars+time+wind prior to LU, I think I once wrote a post where I mentioned that the idea of ravio gushing embellished stories of his link to the hw trio and then the hw trio finding out it's legend the one he was talking about is absolutely HILARIOUS

5. I would never read a fic like that tbh, I absolutely despise it when people portray the tp link + tp zelda relationship as bad or as strangers. Idc that they didn't interact in game, after what they went through together in the endgame I think it's absolutely insane to believe they wouldn't be close post game??? Like not even in a ship matter but as friends, they'd absolutely be close. So yeah, they're besties to me

6. I've answered this before, but I have no opinion on the fable + legend siblings headcanon, like I don't hate it but also don't love it? I think they can be goofy to each other, siblings or not

7. Neither? I'm very particular when it comes to wind's portrayal, and those 2 extremes are not my cup of tea at all. I like it when people make it more nuanced, like he is a pirate and he is a kid, only portraying one side of him is bad imo and I don't like it

8. Is this in relation to my pain sharing au? If you want wild to be besties with her then go for it lol I don't really mind, you can headcanon whatever when it comes to the boys' relationships outside the chain, I'm leaving them vague on purpose so anyone can insert their own headcanons

9. I do, but only because it has a lot of potential for funny scenarios

10. I haven't, but I do know about it. If I ever get enough free time I'd def read it

11. Again, no i haven't lol between my full time job + being a caretaker it's hard for me to find the time to sit down and read

12. I like this headcanon, idk if I'll use it in the au but I like it

13. My headcanon is more closely to jojo's tbh, but I do picture the colors as taking turns on who's piloting lol

14. No. I've mentioned in previous posts that extending the chain drains his magic, cause the longer the chain is the more magic he uses to maintain it.

15. I do like bonus links! I've been reading it for a while now, it's pretty neat

[skyward-floored]

hey what are your thoughts on the chain and religion? 👀

- hero-of-the-wolf

Complicated and long haha XD I have a lot of thoughts about it honestly but I don’t know if I’ll be able to articulate them the best.

So they’ve all got different degrees of religion/faith for sure, and I think a fair amount of them have a complicated relationship with it tbh.

But really, does anyone have a normal relationship with religion? Everyone’s gotta struggle through what they believe at some point, I think anyway.

Anyway I think pretty much everyone believes in the goddesses and/or Hylia, even if they don’t like them. Hyrule would be the only one I’m unsure about, but I’m chalking that up to game limitations and such. I’d have to check his manual. But seeing as every game includes the triforce and/or the goddesses acting in obvious manners, it would be crazy for them not to believe in something.

Sky comes off as the most religious for sure, he’s got a strong belief in Hylia, he regularly prays (you’re technically praying when you save in sksw!) and Skyloft is steeped in a lot of faith/religion stuff. I would say he probably does have some stuff to work through after everything with Zelda (what do you do when the goddess you’ve worshipped your whole life is your best friend??) but he still keeps up a lot of his stuff like praying, and generally defending the goddess(es)’s decisions.

Wild I think is sort of the same, but I don’t know if he thinks about it as much. He just... prays. Especially after he wakes up. Sometimes he’s not sure if he’s talking to Zelda or Hylia or what, but he prays. After he saves Zelda it probably gets more complicated since I’m sure Zelda has Stuff to work through, but... he just seems to me like a guy who’s pretty normal about religion and stuff. Idk.

Twilight seems to believe in the light spirits, (which are sort of goddess off-shoots? More minor god-things? I haven’t played tp in a while but that’s the impression I get), but he also says ‘gods’ once in the comic so it might be both for him. He probably has a pretty measured view of things, though with all the divine prank stuff I wonder if he’s a little iffy on the goddesses specifically.

Time idk. He seems to be resentful of the Master Sword more than anyone divine, but I doubt he’s a fan of the goddesses. He doesn’t not believe in them, he just doesn’t like them.

Warriors I honestly do not know. My headcanons on him change regularly, but since I’m me I tend to give him a sort of general belief in the goddesses/Hylia.

I’m getting a headache so the rest of this will be shorter, but Wind has the goddesses and also spirits like Jabun and the wind gods, and he obviously believes in those. I don’t know if he really worships them or anything, but he talks to them and respects them and stuff *shrug*

Legend does NOT know who Hylia is, and does not hate her. I don’t know his specific opinion on the various gods and goddesses and spirits he comes across in his games but I sincerely doubt he hates every single one of them.

who am I forgetting... Four. I don’t really know about him either, I haven’t actually played many of his games. He would definitely know a lot about various goddesses and stuff though, he’s smart.

💘, 🐳, ⛩️, 🙊?

💘, 🐳, ⛩️, 🙊

💘 MIPHLINK!!! Do I have to say it? Absolutely 110% Miphlink. Honestly they are a pairing that I love more than all the other ships I have ever shipped, and I come back to them whenever other hyper fixations fizzle out or I want something comforting. I love them both so much. AoC is one of my favourite zelda games for that reason. (BoTW too, but the tragic lovers vibe is so sad)

Skyward Sword Zelink, a little bit, I wasn’t head over heals for them, but SS Zelda reminded me a fair bit of Mipha (if Mipha had been brought up in a less dangerous time and with less royal duties they would have probably been more similar), so that was that! 

I really wish I shipped Revali with someone, because I love the birb because he is stupid and fun to draw, initially I was a pining Miphvali shipper, but like, I wasn’t a massive fan of that, so maybe ZelVali? Some people ship that, and I’ve got to say the Revali and Zelda talking scene is one of my favourite cutscenes in BoTW, not to mention Zelda’s dialogue to Revali; If not romantic, definitely platonic. 

Teba and Saki are the adorable birb parents so I quite like their couple dynamic? Im not really the biggest shipper outside of Miphlink tbh.  

🐳

I honestly have no idea? Probably a Hylian (boring answer sorry!), but maybe a Rito. I love the decoration styles, and bright colours, and also they live in a cool climate and I do not like hot weather. So maybe a rito. 

⛩️

I think my favourite dungeon would have to be the Ancient Cystern in SS, I just love how beautiful the whole thing is, with all the lotus-y patterns and the pinks and turquoises and the flowers and stuff. ITs just so dang beautiful!! I also really loved the Sandship Dungeon. I think in terms of play through that was my favourite from start to finish. Location is SO much harder. Aesthetically Satori Mountain, and Rito village, story-wise and where I spend my most time in BoTW Zora’s domain, I also Love the Zora’s domain and Rito Village music. Also sweet cozy little skyloft is so nice and permanent and homely. The great plateau is so nostalgic and I love that too… AAA I don’t think I can pick! In AoC it has to be Scero’s Supplies, I know you can’t really go there, but the merging of Zora and Hateno architecture is just so beautiful and I LOVE IT SO MUCH! 

🙊

Ohhh… Unpopular Zelda opinions… I have quite a few of those. Ok. Here we go. 

ToTK is AWUFUL. Hot dang it is the worst thing ever. It wasn’t even the story that made me stop playing. It was one line from an NPC in Rito Village. Molli wants to make elemental arrows, and has an idea for arrow inventions, that can freeze enemies! No way that’s so cool, except… that is literally one of the main things in the last game. You can buy elemental arrows from the shops. Like what the heck? At least explain to me why a very common commodity that EVERYONE but Particularly the people who’s job it is to look after Bows (Harth and Moli) know about and have access to is somethign they want to invent now. I hate is. I hate it. I hate it. I hate it. I ha- anyway. I despise whatever Lazy idiot decided that was the way to go. Who cares about lore? Not us apparently. I also have a massive problem with the imperialist mass-destruction weapon wearing zonai as well. And as a historian I just love BoTW so much better than ToTK. It treats its history with respect, and nuance, and good golly thats not how ruins from 10,000 years ago would work and o my word stop suspending my disbelief!?! 

Anyway. I could rant for far longer about far more things, but I’ll leave it at that. 

Way more unpopular, and Zelink shippers please ignore this: I think BoTW Zelink is creepy. The power dynamic is insanely bad (princess and her servant who literally cannot disobey her father), and the age gap is also awful (16 turned 17 for one day and “20 something” from the BoTW art book). 

Also, the women deserve better from that fandom. But that’s not news.

Thank you so much for the ask Stars!

[cutebutalsostabby]

In which LoZ games can Link see ghosts, and are there any reasons why he can see ghosts in those games? What about Zelda? Does she ever get to see ghosts or is that a Link thing.

It's a bit arbitrary tbh? In short, I would say that some ghosts are able to make themselves visible whenever they like, whereas others can only be seen if Link has a particular item or ability. I don't recall any of the Zeldas having specific items or abilities here, but you tend to only interact briefly with Zelda in these games so it doesn't actually come up. The specific Links with items/abilities are OoT/MM!Link, WW/PH!Link (arguable), TP!Link, LA!Link, ALBW!Link and AoL!Link - see further details below.

Skyward Sword: Link can see one (1) singular ghost and it's the toilet hand. Which maybe doesn't actually count as a ghost? Do ghosts have physical forms? Nonetheless, it's indicated that other people can hear if not see this ghost, so SS!Link doesn't seem to have any special powers.

Minish Cap: Link can meet a few different ghosts! These include the ghost of a dead king, the ghost of a swordsman, a pair of ghost siblings and some sort of ghost parasite that you can suck up with your gust jar if you arrive at the right time (which I didn't. No light arrows for me...)

Four Swords/Four Swords Adventures: I don't recall there being any ghosts in the former? I think there were some in the latter, but there were no specific abilities/items associated with them. I'm less familiar with these two games however.

Ocarina of Time: you can view ghost Dampe with the naked eye (I think) but need the eye of truth to see the spirit in the wasteland. While you're in the Shadow Temple, Well and a few other areas, Navi mentions being able to see/hear spirits that Link can't.

Majora's Mask: this game's version of the Eye of Truth lets you see a few other ghosts, including Darmani! Though you can see his shadow without it, which is interesting.

Wind Waker: you meet a few dead people, including Fado, Laruto and King Boat Dad. It seems like they all appear specifically because they want to talk to Link, e.g. in response to him conducting the sage's melodies. He doesn't have any special items or abilities, except potentially the Ghost Ship chart: you need this in order to board the ship, and the game text hints that the object is cursed somehow. Might explain why Phantom Hourglass is suddenly so much ghostlier?

Phantom Hourglass: same Link as above, but he meets way more ghosts this time! They're everywhere! Spooky!

Spirit Tracks: technically Zelda isn't a ghost? I think? She's technically still alive, after all? I don't recall there being any other ghosts in this game.

Twilight Princess: hell yeah ghosts, and this time you actually have a reason(?) for being able to see them! Turn on wolf senses. At least one ghost is visible (to both Link and Midna) even WITHOUT wolf senses, and it's the dead Zora queen who wants you to save her child.

A Link to the Past: nothing that I recall, outside of monsters.

A Link Between Worlds: you can get the highly fashionable hint glasses, which let you view hint ghosts! I of course am a pro gamer and never used this ability.

Oracle of Ages + Oracle of Seasons: there are a few ghosts, but no special items or abilities. They're just there.

Link's Awakening: some ghosts are visible without items, but you can also obtain the Magnifying Glass, which lets you see others! But then again, this is a dream so whatever goes, I guess (spoiler lol).

Triforce Heroes: nada afaik.

Zelda I: it's not really clear who is and is not a ghost? You meet an old man under a grave and he gives you a sword. It's probably fine?

Zelda II (Adventure of Link): you obtain the Cross! Definitely not based on any real world religions. The Cross lets you see invisible ghost monsters. You don't meet any actual ghost NPCs in this game, but theoretically this Link would be able to see them if they were there.

Breath of the Wild/Tears of the Kingdom: you meet plenty of ghosts but don't have any special items to see them. Imo this version of Hyrule must be SUPER haunted, so you're probably only seeing a fraction of what's there.

Hyrule Warriors (if you count it): no special items or abilities, except maybe the magic mirror you get in the water temple? It's an item that you can use to break an illusion spell. But in general, if a ghost shows up, it's visible to all characters.

I think that's everything? Let me know if I missed a game!

[shadixth]

How's it going bro! :3

Also love your oc! :D

Idk if you play games, but what type of games do you think would each of the bunch play? Video games or board games, doesn't matter. I like to think Raban and Jojo play poker lol

Hey^^ and thank you

Ngl I see JoJo and raban playing poker too and sometimes Markus joins cause he played it with his dad a couple of times

I think when it comes to board games they play the basics like uno and "Mensch ärger dich nicht" (idk the English version tbh). Or just card games in general because idk if I'm the only one but I think everybody in Germany at some point has those games that have 100 games writing on it.(I swear idk where it came from I didn't buy it.it spawned).

I think JoJo really Uno tho and they play it sometimes when they are at Camelot.

Leon isn't really a board game guy in my eyes. Yea he would play it when others bring it up but not by himself.

Vannesa is a card game type to me as well as Marlon. Idk they just give card game vibes.( Im Not in the whole card and board game thing so excuse me:') )

Deniz doesn't seem to be the guy that plays board games as well tbh. Would play if brought up but that's all.

If it comes to video games tho I can say a bit more. Those are games I think they would play so not games from that time

Leon:World of warcraft-. Doesn't look like the type of guy but when it was winter and they couldn't play soccer he started playing wow and could addicted. Maybe Marlon brought it up as a joke first. Leon probably plays FIFA here and there. Minecraft too tho

Marlon: Resident evil. And Nintendo games. Especially the legend of Zelda. Maybe when he got older he was saving a lot of money because he didn't want to fight over the computer with Leon so he bought a switch and started to play Nintendo games. Probably after the Nintendo ds broke they got as a birthday gift years back. And Minecraft too

Deniz: FIFA and maybe tried GTA as well. I don't think he plays a lot of video games tho. Like when he had time sometimes but that's all. Minecraft too like the others probably

Raban: definitely plays wow can't change my mind.also Pokémon obsessed. Other than wow he mostly played games on his phone like class royal ect. Would also instal those ad mobile games that suck

Vanessa: I don't know about her. Maybe shooter games here and there but don't see her as a gamer or anyone enjoying video games a lot. Minecraft yea but just because of the others. She doesn't really play it without them

JoJo: all cozy tbh. Stardew valley mostly. Gives his animals funny names and all(Mood). Minecraft is a basic I think but he definitely played it too and had a lot of dogs before he even had a house. Maybe some point and click like Deponia or Harvey's new eyes? Don't see him in shooter games. Maybe tried them but that's all

Markus:maybe shooter? I don't see him as a video game guy. Minecraft here and there but that's basically it. He played stardew valley with JoJo tho and had a few games on his phone. I see him as a secret Pokémon go enjoyer tho

They all made a Minecraft server but just after a couple of days it was dead. They tried it like 3 times and after 3 weeks the server was dead again

[gumdefense]

Tag game: tagging 9 people you want to know better ! Tagged by @kill-vonkarma-again which is so sweet thank youu <33 I haven’t done one of those in forever, I’m assuming I just answer the questions lol

Favourite colour: blue ! I just like it

Currently reading: yeahhh I need to read more. I haven’t in a while. But the books I have open at the moment are The Origin of Species (Darwin), King Solomon’s Ring (Konrad Lorenz), and The Rise and Reign of Mammals (Steve Brusatte). Also I wanna get started on The Vinyl Detective (Andrew Cartmel), which I impulsively bought browsing a bookshop

Last song: Yuve Yuve Tu by the HU. If you like metal I definitely recommend them they’re really good !

Last movie: Shaun of the Dead for like… the 50th time. Favourite movie of all time which I so recommend. Been obsessed with it since I was like, 11 ? Do not show that movie to the 11yos you know though. Probably too gory and sweary

I recommend the whole cornetto trilogy !! Since this is an ace attorney blog, I’ll especially give the pitch for Hot Fuzz, since that’s what most similar lol. It’s a romcom disguised as a buddy cop, which is also a murder mystery, and also a love letter to action movies and buddy cop movies, and is just fantastic. Murder, absurdity, pun names, gay, social commentary, it’s got all you love in aa !

As a little explanation if you don’t know anything about the cornetto trilogy (I’ll take any opportunity to ramble about it): it’s 3 comedy movies directed by Edgar Wright (Scott Pilgrim, Baby Driver), cowritten by him and Simon Pegg (Benji in the mission impossible movies), and starring Simon Pegg and Nick Frost (you might know him as Santa in the 2014 Doctor Who Christmas special). First came Shaun of the Dead in 2004, then Hot Fuzz in 2007, then The World’s End in 2013. Shaun of the Dead is a romzomcom (romcom with zombies), generally considered a classic in horror-comedy. Hot Fuzz I’ve explained. And The World’s End is an alien invasion during a friend group’s pub crawl, sadly not as known/popular as the other two but it’s also absolutely brilliant and deserves more love. The three movies have nothing to do with each other (on the surface. You can argue they’re connected by themes but this is already long) so you can watch them in whatever order you want, or only two, or one, of them. Though of course I recommend them all in the order they came out bc 1) they’re all fantastic 2) i just find it interesting to see the progression of direction and writing over time. But do what makes you happy ! Also, warning, they’re all gory sweary etc, and have some outdated jokes, but if you’re into ace attorney you’re used to that lol

Anyway-

Last series: started catching up on Doctor Who today finally !! Last I had seen was Jodie Whittaker. The Donna episodes made me close to tears like 5 times and I’ve only had Fifteen for 2 episodes but I’m already completely enamoured with him. And if podcasts count as series I’ve been listening to Sherlock and Co which you should listen to it’s really great really good Sherlock Holmes adaptation !

Sweet, savoury, spicy: I have a reeeally bad sweet tooth. Love savoury and spicy too of course, if you ask me what I want for a meal I won’t say sweet, but…. I fucking love sweet things man

Craving: last question reminded me of blueberry muffins and chicken tikka and now I want both

Tea/coffee: I don’t drink either tbh but I like tea while I dislike coffee (except if it’s a coffee-flavoured sweet)

Currently working on: aha. This reminded me I need hobbies. I haven’t drawn in a while, I should get back to that. I have this very detailed zelda ace attorney crossover au if that counts, been doing lots of drawing and research and thinking. Also I’ve been doing statistics about ace attorney, and been planning to work on statistics about the cornetto trilogy. I just like stats <3 but yeah tbh most of the working I do is study related less hobby related. I should dedicate more free time to things that enrich my brain

That was fun ! Thanks again for tagging me I’m touched <3 and I like getting to know you better ! Frankly I’m a bit scared of tagging people, I’m too shy for that, sooo this is an invitation for anyone reading this to do it ! Consider yourself tagged. Though I will tag @purpleleavesday bc that’s not scary <3

✧-Matchup Info-

General-☆

You can call me Juni, I'm a 24 year old female with she/they pronouns, I'm bisexual with no particular preference ^^

Appearance-☆

Appearance-wise, I'm 5'6 and weigh 147 pounds. My face is kinda chubby, which makes me feel self-conscious at times, I think I've gotten a better mindset about it now though. My hair is styled in a short wolf-cut, which is messy most of the time (no matter what I do it won't look neat😭) I have butterfly tattoos on my forearm.

Clothing-☆

Clothing-wise, I have a lot of autumn aesthetic clothing, but I also like to wear classy(ish)-casual clothes.

For make-up I prefer softer make-styles. I don't do anything too bold.

Hobbies-☆

I like to draw from time to time, even if I have the drawing skills of a 12 year old.

Video games are fun too, I've played a few Zelda games on my nintendo switch.

I dunno why, but I like solving math equations. Just writing some random math problems then solving them gives me a sense of peace, like I don't even need to think about anything else. I do some from time to time to keep my mind off things.

I like puzzles, putting the puzzle pieces are satisfying, I have a few lying around my house.

Likes-☆

I've always liked stories, like Greek mythology and Norse mythology. It's always been interesting and fun to listen to.

Floral language is interesting too, to see a single object can hold so much meaning is so lovely to discover. A single bouquet can hold an entire message, pause and think about that for a moment.

Animals are something I like a lot. Muskrats are one of the cutest animals ever, say it with me. Kittens, hedgehogs. So many cute creatures fill this world.

I really like pastries (red velvet flavor is my favorite), fruit, cute things and MEAT. If there's no meat on my plate for a single meal I'll die.

Tbh I think I have a hand/glove kink, whenever I see a good pair of hands wearing gloves (even in anime, fight me), or just sexy bare hands, I get all giggly and shit, kicking my feet like I'm a little girl.

Dislikes-☆

ANY OF THOSE FREAKY INSECTS. I SEE A SPIDER I'M RUNNING

I'm a picky eater, so veggies are a no.

When I'm supposed to be working and they start yapping nonstop, it gets on my nerves. I don't like it when people bother me so much while I work like please stfu.

Being under pressure is also extremely unpleasant.

Being in a position of leadership. I prefer following orders, if I have to guide a group of people to do something I'm fucked, it gets me anxious. I let others take the lead.

Personality-☆

(Tbh I don't even know myself on a personal level I am so inconsistent)

With people I am unfamiliar with, I am reserved and quiet, often being mistaken as timid and mature. I keep a stoic appearance without even realizing it, it only ever cracks when my friends are around.

I'm the type of person when I don't hear something or understand, I just nod with a smile. And I have shitty hearing too so that just makes this even worse.

I suppose I have a submissive personality. It's not a bad thing. But sometimes I'm a people-pleaser at times and passive, often not assertive, going with the flow of things, letting people talk over me, sensitive to criticism... You get the memo.

I hate confrontation, it's not something I enjoy, it makes me uncomfortable.

At the same time, I have some temper which I do my best to get over, but when I can't contain it, I get snappy and bitchy.

But with my friends it's a completely different story I'm definitely more open than I am with acquaintances or strangers. I'm more energetic and playful around those I hold dear.

I'm a bundle of energy with them and loyal. I'm more childish, I talk more, my meekness is way less noticeable, I'm more confident, happy. With the people I'm comfortable with, my inner child just shows.

Thoughts I’ve had about Hyrule while playing TotK

Warning these are a little unhinged bear with me. Also possible spoilers? I don’t think there are but like. Read at your own risk.

So Zelda is definitely a descendant of Rauru&Sonia. So they definitely had at least one baby before they died. Who raised it? Sonia’s family? Did the living sages co-parent the child? Did they just entrust the child to castle staff? Do Zonai walk out the womb able to take care of themselves?

In the same vein, have royal Hylian’s lifespans been slowly getting shorter as they’ve married non-royal Hylians? I’m assuming Zonai had long lifespans if they were considered so godly, so a half-Hylian half-Zonai probably lived a long ass time, but as you keep adding Hylains with no genetic connection to Zonai I’d think it’d shorten it over time? I’m no geneticist so idk.

Do you think the rest of Hyrule was super racist toward Gerudos for awhile? Maybe its because I grew up in America and I’m used to people being racist towards a whole race for things a small group did but idk if that’s how people in Hyrule would be, especially since they had Gerudo on their side.

Did people want the next Gerudo male to be executed in fear of him turning out like Ganon? And do you think the Gerudo considered it? With how long some lifespans are (like the Zora, possibly royal Hylians? Sheikah live a long time too it looks like) people affected by Ganon might still be alive when the next male was born.

Continuing with Gerudo but less…heavy? Can they reproduce with other races besides Hylians? Like if a Gerudo fell in love with like a Rito would they be able to conceive and potentially have a child? Or does it have to be a Hylian?

Do Gerudo only produce other Gerudo??? Like will she always spawn a Gerudo no matter what? Can they have pregnancies that result in boys or non-gerudo women?

On the subject of producing children. Can Zora have children with Hylians? Because like. King Dorephan did not give a fuck about an heir when Mipha was in love with Link. Is it because they could reproduce? Did it have to do with the vast different in lifespans, so he figured she could have an heir with a Zora later in life? Did he just assume Sidon wouldn’t fall for a Hylian himself and create an heir with his future spouse?

HOW DO GORON REPRODUCE??? I have no other thoughts around this. Just. How. My brain is like. Fucky magic shit. Like a couple decides they want a child and find a suitable rock, then pray to Hylia and eventually the rock is imbued with life.

Zora pregnancies. How do they work? Is it like shark pregnancies? Or like other fish pregnancies? (i don’t know anything about shark pregnancies tbh. Or fish pregnancies in general) Because I think Yona is like a manta ray, yeah? Like Muzu? Because looking at Mipha&Sidon you’d think a pregnancy results in one baby? But is that normal?

Okay also like. The Zora sleep in those communal pools. Do they…do they have sex in there? In front of the children? Do they have separate like mating pools? Or are Zora children just like. Desensitized to it like some sort of Brave New World type shit. Or is mating just like. “I want babies!” “Me too!” Implants female with eggs. And that’s it??? Am I thinking too human with this??? Idfk.

I really just want a whole ass lesson on everything revolving around reproduction with all the different races in Hyrule and the possibilities of having mixed children.

Back to Gerudo. On the subject of thinking about things too long. Gerudo anatomy. What if they’re like hyenas? Like. I don’t know much about hyena anatomy besides the fact that the females have bigger dicks than the males. And like. Gerudo’s have Big Dick Energy so like. What if they actually have dicks?

On a more serious note. I’d also like a whole ass lesson on the life cycles of the individual races and average life expectancy.

That’s it for now. Why am I like this.

How did you remove the violence from your child? I've never met a cbc (mine included) who didn't thirst for blood

So don't get me wrong, Zelda can still be a bit nippy at times! (Below: photo of my 'gentle' child, where you can see some of the many marks on my hands from her bites)

But she is definitely a lot more mellow than she was when she was younger! When we first got her, she would bite very often. But nowadays, she only really bites if she gets overexcited (e.g if I am holding something she desperately wants, sometimes she won't wait for it. Or if I have been holding a toy for her to bite at, sometimes she won't adjust her bite strength and accidentally nip my hand with the same power she was biting at the toy with)

In terms of whether we did anything to make her more gentle? I would guess it's probably just luck! But a few things that might have helped:

I am naturally a very jumpy guy. So if she is on my hand and bites me, I will physically kind of jerk from the shock. This isn't nice for her (it can't be nice to have the platform you were sitting on suddenly jolt you off!) so perhaps she has learnt 'oh I shouldn't do that'?

We make sure she has lots of biting/shredding toys available (these are all of my birds' favourites tbh). Everyone loves yucca, cardboard, and seagrass, but Zelda also tears through balsa wood because she has a stronger beak. So I think she enjoys having some tough wood to inflict violence on!

This is the biggest one for us - we just got better at reading her body language I think! Zelda is very obvious with her body language, more than any of my other birds. So nowadays we can always tell when she is getting overexcited or a bit annoyed, and so in those moments we don't put our hands near her, and try to redirect with activities that she enjoys or that calm her down.

So yeah, TLDR: She very much still is a violent child when she wants to be! And prolly her gentleness the rest of the time is pure luck, but we try our best to give her more 'productive'/natural ways to enact her thirst for blood wood

Hi dae~

I found you on Ao3 last year with "one hundred years past" and fell in love. I went on to read your other legend of zelda fics and then "come all ye mighty", which I wasn't expecting to like so much, and a few more. I re-read them frequently, and am loving "ad infinitum" so much, can't wait for what's coming.

I've been wondering for a while tho, if you would be interested in having a beta reader? I just can't help but notice the typos. I still love the fics of course, but they can be a little distracting. If yes, I'd like to volunteer myself, to proofread any past and future fics. I don't know how I'd prove myself to you, maybe by doing an old fic first and see if you like it? And if not, well, I figured it wouldn't hurt to ask :)

Thanks for hearing me out, and thank you for the wonderful works you do <3

Haha, I'm glad to hear you like them. Yeah, typos are definitely an issue (and the accursed wrongly autocorrected word - those are what fuck me off the most, tbh, since they're so hard to catch). You're right that I don't have a beta. I'm very on the fence about it tbh.

I've had betas before, and I definitely appreciated them, but there are pros and cons. Like yeah it's nice when all errors are caught, but on the other hand I can sometimes find it frustrating having a beta, since it means that when I finish a chapter I then have to just sit on it and wait for someone to go through it (which, with my tendency for big chapters can sometimes take a while). Maybe it's because my chapters are so big, but sometimes I'm working on them for so long that I get real impatient for them to go up when they're finally finished.

And like, I can't fairly expect any beta to do things asap either and have a super fast turn around, like people have their own lives and stuff going on. Proofreading takes time, esp if you're doing it in your free time just out of love, and I recognise that. Like I have to weigh my impatience against reality lol.

I don't know. Like I'm not opposed, but it'd probably end up being in a weird format. Like a belated proof - I post the chapter, and at the same time give a beta access to the doc on the side, and they can read through it in their own time and highlight any typos and wrong words, and then I update the chapter to fix those errors when they're done. That's the only way I think I wouldn't end up just feeling frustrated at having to go through the extra step. Idk, maybe that's too convoluted 😂😂😂😂

If it's something you're seriously interested in talking about tho, feel free to email me at tciddaemina@gmail.com for a proper chat 👍

[futurefind]

//I DID THE THING FINALLY!! 😭😭😭The years on first one indicate when they first inspired me/influenced how I wrote/saw Sa!! Hence them being absent on the latter

Elaborations/details below the cut!!!

Element Valkyrie: (Kit) Literally how/why Sa has her main gimmick of fire + water/ice lmao!! In fact I think fire was her original main...? Ice became a focus post-atla (all of like... a year later lmfao)

Link (Twilight Princess): (Aesth) What can I say I really loved TPs, well, 'edgier' aesth (my second zelda after all of wind waker). Also, probably the first wolf association...? Less consciously, perhaps the first taste of cryptid drifter that goes around solving problems? (Kit) Why Sasume has a sword!! And why it's at her back/shoulder!! Also, sort of, ass kicking with said sword, but as a video game YMMV lmao. (Chara) The silent protag stuff could not hurt? Esp w the contrast with being good w kids, implicitly (Heart) WHAT CAN I SAY I'VE SAID IT BEFORE Sa is very much HeroTM, in broader loz/link sense, at heart. Saving and helping people is her priority!! Even when it's hard!!

Naruto: (Kit) Tbh... the source of Shinrei's aesthetic effects wrt eyes, teeth, claws, etc? (Bg/Lore) Samehat with her bg. With an emphasis on samehat, as the two were connected 1:1 in those early days. But unlike canon Naruto even baby Nori went 'reality ensues' 'edgier' variant where shit is traumatizing as fuck. (Heart) As I've also Also stated elsewhere... she's very much a shonen protagonist at heart??? A Knight in Sour Armor but a Knight all the same

Sasuke: (Aesth) Do I even need to say it...? The grumpy/angsty edgelord Lancer surface level absolutely came from here, lmao. Not as conscious as Naruto (iirc, I gave her blue hair bc my brown marker ran out when doing that design? lmfao) but definitely couldn't hurt. (Bg/Lore) Probably colored/inspired taking the aforementioned 'reality ensues' traumatic framing for Sa's bg. And a bunch of other plot-y stuff that's sliding scale of preserved to scraped entirely (ie being Nth distant relative survivors to the Uchiha clan lmfao). (Chara) What can I say... aren't we all familiar w the broadstrokes atp?? Loner angsting edgelord who's just afraid of letting people in... A staple of the archetype, and undoubtedly helped staple that archetype onto Sa. (Other) Far more nebulous, but did inspire a general 'special heritage/family line' power stuff. Though what said family line stuff was wouldn't be figured out 'til further down the line.

Kanda: (Aesth) For a hot second I literally intentionally looked to Kanda for aesth inspiration for Sa lmao... in my NLOG phase I even did an inverse of him being confused for a woman by having Sa be more Bifauxnen bc 'feminine = weak' lol (gag). Also, while from DGM's uniform as a whole rather than Kanda specifically, codified Sa's token look of skintight slevelees turtleneck + fingerless gloves— as well as remove previous aspects of color from her wardrobe. (Kit) Again, a side effect of DGM as a whole rather than Kanda specifically, but this is why Shinrei's kit isn't just so thought out but so specifically staggered (the 'Levels/Stages' aspects present across many Innocence). As a direct inspo, though, Mugen fucking with his pupils/eye is what I used to preserve Sa's emotive angy vfx (and what made it, and her entire kit, 1:1 with her sword rather than being innate). (Chara) Do I need to elaborate...? Lol. He also fits into the archetype of Sasuke that Sa was already in, so nothing too big, particularly as DGM made me develop Sa so much more and breakaway from copypasting him. However, he's liably the source of her more overt tsundere tendencies, as well as her aversion to using people's names (also for tsun reasons). Also probably why Sa's surface level is outright Jerkass and not just ominous stoic dude deal lmao.

Dean Winchester (s1-5): (Aesth) Gets some lite points for styling themselves against/for a parent, jerkass with a reckless heart of gold, and bravado/masculinity that oft loops back around to disingenuous/insecure. (Bg/Lore) What can I say? The idolization of a lost mother, comparing oneself against a parent (derogatory), the deadbeat dad (who's like the younger sibling), and the parentification and resulting over-protection and -devotedness toward their younger sibling/'child'. However, not much direct inspo here, especially since one of his hallmarks is his dysfunctional jackassery toward his sibling and one of Sa's is that her jackass exterior breaks away for hers. (Chara) While I remember Sasume's snark being unintentional irp, passive Deanfluence def couldn't hurt to cement the snark, lmfao. (Heart/Other) Lumping these two together bc man!! Man!!! What if you were forced into a life of violence and endangerment and self loathing and you 'reclaimed' it by putting how much you hate it and life and yourself into something meaningful, heroic. What if you were meant for greatness and it destroyed you. What if you wanted nothing more than a life of domesticity as a partner and parent and thought your only way to get there was through dreams and death. What if the only way you can get through the day is by chasing thrills and throwing yourself into risk after risk for others and half-hoping it kills you.

GRAVEYARD/REVERSE INSPO BOOGALOOS!!

As these are blorbos you can use to 'find Sasume in' instead of vice versa, these'll hopefully be more brief...? Things to make you point at and go 'omg just like Sa :)', rather than unpacking the building blocks of inspiration that helped codify her into how she is.

Geralt: (Aesth) The wandering enigmatic monster hunter with an extremely dangerous rep but with more heart/morals than you'd think... yk? Bonus spn gold eye points. (Kit) Nothing overt, but general hyper-competence wrt combat. (Bg) Witchers' sliding scale of dubious rep, yk? As well as his Butcher legacy. (Chara) As stated, gruff bastards with a caring heart that's variably concealed, depending on the moment. Notably (vs some prev examples), very okay with killing human monsters, even if it's not ideal.

Alucard: (Aesth) Pwincesses The supernatural & enigmatic auras that are both intimidating and inspiring reliance/protection yk? (Kit) Again general combat competence, but also healing factor and resulting being a gd tank, relatively. (Heart) Hearts of gold!! More overt since he's not a tsun though lol

Mizu: (Aesth) Edgelord wandering blue eyed 'samurai', lol. (Kit) Violence hypercompetence, pragmatism, and being a disturbing levels of tanking severe wounds. (Bg) What can I say Mizu's entire traumatic backstory and hardening into who she is is because of being othered and seen as nonhuman (if due to racism, vs Sa's). Plus some spoilery stuff I'm not gonna say bc oh my god guys go watch BES :') Esp if you like Sa. (Chara) The terrifying determinism, raw brutality/pragmatism, being stubborn idiots who need to be forced into accepting help... but also going to extreme lengths once the loner walls are breached. Also, the sass and taunting and blood knight aspects??? Peak Sa. Chef kiss. (Other) Holy fucking SHIT the insecurities? And self perception?? Seeing oneself as monstrous and inhuman and that inhumanity linked with an 'inability/failures of' being a woman yk......... augh,

Ed: (Kit) Having fun with 'bending' elements in utilitarian ways. (Bg) Orphaned big siblings whose main priority is saving/helping baby sib yk... Also, in retrospect, the hypercompetence being developed for the sake of said sib. (Heart) Again!! Shonen protagonist at her core!! Though ofc focusing more on the unironic softness, as well as her 'aspiring' for pacifism and hating having to kill but having no qualms doing so when necessary.

Rengoku: (Kit) Badass swordsmen with fire related aesth? Badass swordsmen. (Bg) While far more... mundane in the tragedies of his upbringing, the overlap in the themes and impact of their traumas are :') very much similar :'))) (Heart) Shonen protags but also mentors!! Staring very loudly at and ignoring even harder how as a kid my intent for Sa's story would be to kill her off. Tbf she's a very solid candidate for the Obi-Wan type 'crutch' characters whose death symbolisms an emblematic turning point...........

Vash: (Kit) Again: See: Hypercompetence in combat, now with more overt inhuman uncanniness!! (Bg) While far more fantastical and sort of... spread out? Impersonal? Than Sa's, it's impact and his view on it are very Sacore!! (Heart) SHONEN PROTAG OF ALL TIME??? And also see: aspirations of pacifism and how, just like Vash is able to be so extremely pacifistic because he's nonhuman levels of sturdy... Sasume cannot be because she's still very much human, and so can only take so much before she's forced to retaliate :') (And also being long past the point of breaking pacifism for sake of necessity/saving others... and p much Only breaking it to protect others... yk.......)

[icharchivist]

Tbh that's my issue with a lot of modern video games

I don't need photorealistic graphics. I want things to look good and clear and interesting

Trying to make your humans look like real humans only leads to the uncanny valley and it usually ends up dating your game because by the time the next generation comes out, your graphics are outdated

Also, I play video games to get away from people

It's completely fine to stylize things. It looks better, even in twenty years, it avoids the uncanny valley, it can still be expressive! And it cuts down on rendering and ideally on development costs. Like, I play the new Baldur's Gate and my computer is not high-end, but the game runs fine. Except for the dialogue scenes, where sometimes the expressions are weird and it kind of lingers uncomfortably for a few seconds before going to the next dialogue. Again, probably a problem with my computer, but it's a bit weird every time

Meanwhile I'm looking forward to Relink, which is a very stylized Anime game and I'm sure it's still gonna look good in 20 years

Or like, Super Mario. The new Zeldas. Stuff like that

There's also the argument that back then, games had to sell you on their narrative and story and gameplay instead of just graphics. I personally don't have an opinion on this, there's plenty of ugly games that also suck as well as pretty games with good stories. But I'm also not one of those people who throw a fit about a game not running at 60 FPS

But yeah, Final Fantasy games could totally embrace their Anime roots, I'm sure they'd be better for it

Fortunately, animation in movies at least is moving towards more stylized and I think that could be cool

Video games are art as well, after all and I'm happy for each one that isn't trying and then subsequently struggling with this self-imposed realism where it's not actually needed

You don't have to publish this ask btw, this just popped into my head just now and I have a lot of thoughts about animation

TOTALLY AGREE, 100%.

Like i think trying to perfect some graphic is fine and all but it's been quite a few years now that the progress is genuinely not worth it. Like the constant rush for realism often end up bringing duller artistic choices (which is even more noticeable with the remake trend in general because you see how older games went around those "graphic limitations") and it's just... not worth it? not with how big and huge it makes a game in the end?

like i know BG3 is that big because it's a huge game and stuff, but the fact i need over 150GB of stockage to install it gives me hives. If a part of it is due to the overthe top animations and high res's designs... i'd rather them toning it down instead.

Final Fantasy definitely fall into this category as well. Like for crying out loud, they justified making the remake a multiparter because the assets for Midgar alone were too big to just make the prologue of the game (which it IS, the current remake that came out in 2020 only covers the PROLOGUE of the main game) and it ended up being the reason they went completely off script and made a whole new narrative instead. All because they wanted the whole city to be this HD? Like Crisis Core came out in 2007, it's not perfect graphic wise, but it plays well within its limitation. And most of it happens in Midgar!!! they just knew to limitate as much of the Midgar's sets as they could!! Seeing how its remake just basically butcher most of the artistic creativity just by replacing the models with HD models is genuinely so boring to me. What's the point!! what's the point!!

maybe it's nostalgia and all but i'm at a point where i feel like most graphisms from up to the mid 2010s, as far as realism go, have pretty much filled this artistic approach, and anything else is just more flashy just to prove they can do it.

like i keep seeing those Last of Us' remaster's comparaison and i feel so ill like, the first game already holds up fine!! it didn't need all those remasters what the fuck are you people on about!! how is it improving the game the slightest!! i mean i know it's all about money, but jesus christ it's SO not worth it???? (for the record i don't give a shit about TLOU, i just saw the screenshots and it makes me feel ill).

i've also seen comparaisons of some Metal Gear Solid's remakes comparaisons where in order to chase the realism of the effects of the jungle and everything, they just completely removed the stylized lightning and atmosphere because REALISM, amnt i right? how is that better?? i don't need 30GB+ of game on my computer just to nod like "ah yes this one cutscene was worth me uninstalling a couple of my old games for it. you got me."

at this point i'd rather they focus on the story! on the characters! allocate this time somewhere else!

and it comes with a major disregard for stylized games in general. Games that don't want to pursue realism and are doing just fine like this.

idk i'm also just rambling but it makes me so sad. I'm not even against HD graphisms, but i definitely think we reached a cap years ago already and most of the attempt at progress we've had since have been about removing the stylization to push the realism, and it's genuinely not the interesting way to push the medium forward.

and like i'm definitely at the age where i'm probably clouded with nostalgia and i'm just "old man yelling at clouds" (ahah get it because Cloud stri-) and all but this is genuinely something that gets me annoyed.

and with ff7 in particular i'm just so upset because the pursue of realism led to "the game is too big now because of the assets so we need to cut it into pieces" to "but the pieces we have don't have enough plots to explore all the assets we have so now we're doing an original story!" and every decisions the "remake" has taken outside of the remake portions have been making me sick in my stomach. And while greed is of course the main cause of it all, it just ends up feeling so disingenuous and now i'm at a point a remake i awaited for a long time just so the saga could have a coherent imagery together (because the OG's graphisms do in fact clash a lot with the rest of the graphisms of the others game of the saga) just now is something i want nothing to do with. (except to take screenshots when the characters look pretty. 3D model simulator only.)

so yeah. felt. so much so. it fucking kills meeee like whyyy

BUT ALSO YEAH it's why games like Relink is definitely up my alley on that. Finally a game that is trying to actually do some style and isn't relying on realism to sell you something. Fucking lord. At last. We just needed Granblue to save us istg.

12, 21, 24 :D

12) favourite character to write about this year

I just answered this one on a separate ask and said Hyrule, but I also like Legend! He's so soft to me. So squeezable. For my version of him: he means so well and he's actually quite clever and astute when he applies himself, BUT... he's a bit (a lot) impulsive, and can be clumsy as a result. Woe: ADHD be upon ye.

Idk I know some people view/write him as the most traumatised of the bunch but in my head he's coping with things in a reasonably healthy way (by Link standards at least lol).

21) most memorable comment/review

WHA- DON'T MAKE ME PICK A FAVOURITE CHILD!! ;_;

Ok fiiine, I will pick a favourite child. But I do really appreciate all comments!! I just chose this one because it was probably one of if not the longest comments I received, which also had the SHEER AUDACITY of apologising for being a long comment. And this is the same commenter who prompted me - politely and hopefully - to update that fic in the first place (complete with author note about pasta-related burns which probably looks ridiculous out of context and tbh doesn't make much more sense IN context lmao), so bonus points for that, and I'm glad they were so excited to see the update. I know some authors don't like being prodded for updates, but I definitely do (dependent on tone, obviously, and it won't always work - but it does help motivate me!).

24) favourite fic you read this year

I AM ONCE AGAIN CALLED ON TO PICK A FAVOURITE CHILD >:O

/j. But also not /j because I'm bad at picking absolute favourites, so I'll instead just add another item to the "fics I enjoyed" list from my previous post:

Things I enjoyed about this:

One of those whump scenes I like to reread a bunch.

Downfall duo belovvvvved.

Autistic Hyrule and also ADHD-coded Legend (idk latter might be just my reading into it but I'm going with that). Neurodivergent downfall duo: yes, correct.

Also it updated daily which is actually a thing I really appreciate in fics (but can never replicate in my own, sorry). I think it was probably afternoons/evenings for the authors but it was generally early mornings in my own time, so it was lovely to go to bed with the expectation of waking to a new chapter!

[errorwarblesrr]

Came up with another ask: if YOU had to make a Zelda movie and had infinite money to make it but also had to make sure it appealed to the mass public, which game would you adapt/what would you do for a story

Hoho boy okay so for starters 2D ANIMATION IS A MUST!! With the obvious out of the way, I would love for it to be wind waker because I am absolutely biased, but I don't think that would be the smart move. I think basing it off of games like the first one, alttp, tp, or oot would be the better move since those settings would be more recognizable for the mass public. Botw is also a contender, but I would want Link in the green tunic since while botw is the best-selling game, the green tunic is the most recognizable. Buuuut I would rather the movie not be based on any games but rather be it's own thing. The safe option is definitely that while having plenty of references for fans. I mean I'd love for there to be a movie where it's like based on Hylia and her first chosen hero, but that would mean no Zelda and I don't think that would be a smart move. It's so hard to say tbh. I feel like it's restrictive to appeal to the masses. I think it should be focused for the fans and by that I will scrap the movie and make an anime Jojo style where each season is based on a new Link aka the different games so we can go all the way instead if being restricted like an hour and something minutes. Screw it there can also be some movies too to accompany it.
