#as if i didn't already have link's scent locked and loaded in my revalink concepts doc

[amiharana]

this is weird but hear me out.. what do you hc revali and link smelling like. like heavier and musky, or lighter and more fruity? irl scents like sandalwood and strawberries, or in game things like cool safflina and armoranth?

this ask is so fucking funny everyone give it up for user crow cryiling for sending me some of the most interesting asks of my life

my in-game go-to scent for link lately has been wildberries, courser bee honey, woodsmoke, and sunlight :) wildberries and courser bee honey because he's out there getting ingredients for the things he's cooking and baking, woodsmoke because he's always at the cooking pot, and sunlight because link is the second sun 🫶 ofc then his analogous modern au/real world scent would be like. strawberries, honey, etc as well. that's his omega slick scent or whatever idk fr ☝️😭

revali's scent is hard to pin down, but i think it would be pinesap, freshly fallen snow, and a hint of spicy peppers :> all because of the surrounding hebra mountains' cold temperatures, esp if revali is training at the flight range. modern au revali would be mostly the same and i would probably add some sort of minty/fresh smell in there too. he's very particular about his hygiene and also wears a very clean, fresh cologne that link goes bonkers over every single time
