[sassykinzonline]

for my monthly "put some respect on ino's name" post:

if you really want an example of a victim of misogyny by fans, and a woman who is essentially disrespected for being feminine its ino. people project onto sakura because they relate to her tomboy nature and think shes pretty, but on its face they steal a lot of ino's actual feats and character traits and pretend that sakura has them.

what crimes did ino commit? she hugged me once without asking. how many times has sakura done that? she...was interested in sai because he was handsome. so? she was kind to him and always included him after that, while everyone else hated his guts (i mean hes fucking annoying so he deserves it, but that just goes to show how nice ino is). in the chunin exams she tried to use her looks as a distraction? naruto uses sexy jutsu, same thing. later on she uses her actual skills to defend sakura who cant do shit except cut her hair. she calls choji fat? so does everyone else. shikamaru constantly disrespects her so that whole team is full of childhood friends who hate each other.

she was instrumental against pain, instrumental against the akatsuki, instrumental in the war effort. she is also actually shown to be smart both in battle and outside of it, rather than just having it be talked about or only shown in the make believe episodes.

in the meantime though, who's the only other person who cried when the rookies were plotting to kill me? ino. who's the only other person who was happy to see me when i came to join the war effort? ino. who didnt try to kill me or advocate for it? ino. did she ever disrespect me after that one hug? no.

Ok I’m gonna share the very first section of the long fic I’ve been working on. I’ve been debating putting the first chapter up on ao3 or not but for now I’m not planning to.

Instead I’m going to post here what is essentially the prologue and hope some of you find it interesting.

This very first part (it’s so short compared to everything else) is kinda in a wonky tense as it’s not necessarily in Link’s POV, I was hoping had a bit of a fairytale feel. But the rest is more traditional Link POV stuff.

Warnings for: Child soldiers, pressure being put upon a child, a bit of existential dread, nothing to angsty I don’t think but let me know if I should add anything

Enjoy!

Link was young when he became a squire, too young most agreed. A boy of only seven following at his father’s heels.

Plate armor clanking and sword belt digging into his small chest. Hair cropped to his chin and hands scuffed from tending horses and polishing weaponry. He was much too young to be a fighter, but he’d seen his first combat when he was three, with only a tree branch he’d destroyed a bokoblin that had come too near him and his mother while on a walk. The woman had been ready to defend her young child with whatever was near when purple smoke exploded and the creature was dead. Leaving her child standing above wriggling guts, covered in blood and holding a stick.

That was Link’s first fight. But it was far from his last.

At four he was able to fight the village guard with little problem, as well as all the other capable fighters in town.

Word had spread quickly around their small community in Hateno village. To keep him away from the rumors of ancient heroes and incredible talent his mother and father had whisked the young child away to Zora's Domain. Hoping to keep him from monsters and expectations.

Despite his troubles with speech, Link had quickly made friends. With King Dorephan’s daughter nonetheless, a sweet Zora girl named Mipha who was learning to use her healing powers. Everyday Link’s parents were grateful for the princess’s ability, because while the rumors didn’t follow them, Link couldn’t help but start more up.

He somehow always found himself in some form of trouble, usually diving off of rock outcrops far too high for a normal Hylian, or the many times he’d defended him and his young friends from wandering octorocks instead of alerting the kingdom’s soldiers like he was supposed to. It was really no surprise word spread of the Hylian knight's young son who saved Prince Sidon’s life when the friends were attacked by a moblin at the age of six.

It seemed Link couldn’t avoid these interactions, so with a sense of dread his parents couldn’t quite understand, they moved once more, to Castle Town, to make sure Link could at least be trained under proper supervision. His father was due back in the King’s service anyhow, so Link became his squire. Though with how fast he began to outshine the knights in training he didn’t stay a squire long, no matter how much his parents disliked it.

Link was knighted at the age of ten, only one year after his little sister Aryll was brought into the world. An exception had been made for his age, most people had to be the age of twenty before knighthood, but no one could slow him down. And with the slowly rising number of monsters… no one could deny he was good at his job. While he had trouble speaking verbally he was fluent in Hylian sign and could best even the King’s most trusted defenders in one on one combat. His father had been so proud of him for following in his footsteps, even if he seemed wary it was all happening so fast. He was the youngest knight in Hyrule’s recorded history, and Link felt pride burn within him at the opportunity to serve his kingdom.

That pride dimmed drastically when only months later his mother died of a strange and incurable illness, he had been on a mission to take out a monster camp with a small group of soldiers at the time. He came home to a dead mother, broken father, and little sister who would never remember her own mother.

After that day Link began to resent his skills. All his tireless training and backbreaking effort and he couldn’t protect his own mother? He hadn’t even been by her bedside when she’d passed. What was the point of protecting the kingdom when he had no mom to return home to?

After the tragedy his father resigned to raise his sister, and Link was only given more dangerous tasks to complete without his father watching out for him. He wished he could resign as well, he didn’t want to follow in his father’s footsteps any longer. He was done with this pain. He’d almost worked up the courage to lay down his sword a year later when on a scouting mission, he was lost in the forest. Something was calling from deep within the branches and brambles, something pulled him along through the thickening fog.

Three days later with no sense of the time passed he walked out with a glowing sword in hand.

That was the first and last time he’d ever seen his father cry, a high ranking guard and soldier weeping as he clutched his son to him, begging the goddess for mercy. None came.

He gave up on his dreams of quitting and finding a more suitable path after King Rhoam of Hyrule announced him the Hero of Legend, the only one who could beat back the impending Great Calamity. As he was forced to kneel in front of his Majesty something fell upon his soul. A weight so immense and powerful that he lost any ability he had to form words. Even with his dear sister his throat remained clogged with fear of failure. His hands were slower as he signed as well, a difficulty he’d never experienced turning them numb and clunky.

On his knees before his King with the Sword of Evil’s Bane in hand, Link understood that the slightest misstep could spell the ruin of all he knew and loved. If he showed even a slight hint of weakness or fear the people would lose faith in him, and despair and depression would clutch at the land.

The people needed to believe he could save them, or else everything he held dear would fall to ashes and ruin.

In that moment Link’s face hardened to stone, his voice failed, and he decided no one could know how truly terrified he was. How unprepared he was to save the world. That he was only eleven years old, he wasn’t a man. He was a child, and he had just been told he had to go to war against evil and destruction itself. He wondered what would be left of him if he won.

The world exists in such a baffling state of simultaneous sex-aversion and sex-hegemony. Every social platform on the internet is trying to banish sex workers to the shadow realm but I can't post a tweet without at least two bots replying P U S S Y I N B I O. People are self-censoring sex to seggs and $3× but every other ad you see is still filled with half-naked women. Rightwingers want queer people arrested for so much as existing in the same postal code as a child and are also drumming up a moral panic about how teenage boys aren't getting laid enough. I feel like I'm losing my mind.

Funny things I found out playing with language setting in Netflix while looking episode 15:

Chilchuck's scream sounds HAUNTED in brazilian portuguese. Give it a try if you can.

(You can hear it here)

In spanish dub, Senshi says: "tocó mis senos de hombre", which means "he touched my man boobs" in Spanish. And I think that's the best dub line one so far.

Bruce is at a gala, okay, and he’s talking to a woman.

Random woman: “And we found out that we’re having another child!”

Bruce: *absolutely cackling inside, because this is about to be the funniest thing he’s done in weeks*

Brucie: “That’s wonderful! Where are they? Can I meet them? How old are they?”

Now Brucie is standing there, scanning the room for children with a huge grin on his face, while all of the random rich people stand around like ‘who’s going to explain to the adorable, well-meaning idiot that most people know they’re going to have children a few months before the children are born.’

And worse, who’s going to have to break the news to him that he can’t meet the kid today?

Because this man… this man has acquired all of his children with zero premeditation. Yes, he does have a bio kid, but that one showed up on his doorstep as a preteen. He did even less acquiring with that one than with the others.

Bruce has a blast acting out his disappointment, and has to turn some so that he can no longer see Tim and Cass leaning against each other and laughing, because otherwise he’s going to start laughing.
