#i genuinely don't think link would have a favorite food in particular

[amiharana]

tumblr keeps crashing when I write this so I'm just gonna type super fast but have we considered link's and revali's favorite foods for modern and canon bc I feel like they would be different

great question! they would be different because if you had the average hyrulean citizen consume anything from mcdonalds they would be inflicted with every disease possible ❤️

KDJFHDKJF JK but i think there would still be similarities between revali and link's taste in foods in both modern and canon. in canon, i hc revali's favorite dish to be a salmon meuniere while link will just eat anything he can get his grubby little hands on vs. in modern au, i hc that revali would be Huge on sushi & other fish-centered dishes while link is the raccoon digging in your trash in the middle of the night that you find on your security camera footage when you wake up.

according to the one rito woman in gerudo town, the rito canonically appear to also indulge in poultry to which i know the fandom has debated the topic of cannibalism, but i think it would be fucking hilarious if modern au!revali was super into fried chicken. he for sure fucks w that korean chicken & beer shit 💯 maybe wine instead though, he feels like a wine guy.

in comparison, link is definitely not a picky eater and has the weirdest eating habits in the world. like bro will eat 30 apples in succession for a quick heal and not eat for multiple days in canon. in a modern au, he'll eat three slices of cold 2-day old pizza while rushing out the door because he's late for work or he just won't eat it until later in the day when he's back home. i'm self-projecting but he's just like me fr 🤞😊

to be fr though, i feel like in canon link makes so many different meals as he travels hyrule that he loves all different kinds of food for all different reasons. a simple mushroom skewer was one of the first meals he made and had when he woke up on the great plateau. the recipe for the meat-stuffed pumpkin he learned to make in kakariko village has never left his mind because it was incredibly helpful for fighting against enemies. you will never understand how happy he was to perfect the creamy heart soup he learned in gerudo town so he could share it with revali. and link makes sure to grab every spicy pepper he finds as he travels back home to rito village and wonders if revali has tried a pepper steak yet. each meal he's ever made has special memories and meanings attached to them, so there's no way that link could have just one favorite food. 🥹🫶

What ship were you completely obsessed with when you were a teenager, but now you don't care about anymore?

uhh probably sakura/syaoran from cardcaptor sakura? very original i know i continue to be Very Basic. to be fair i was 13 and i’d just discovered what fanfic was so there’s that. now it’s more of a nostalgia thing? they’re cute but yeah not much else

Which ship would you consider your first one?

probably sakura/syaoran or link/zelda from the legend of zelda, again very basic but technically i discovered fandom through zelda forums so

Your first fanfic was about which couple?

still sakura/syaoran, and yes it was terrible because i was still like 13

Do you remember the first couple you saw fanart of?

i honestly have no idea but i’m going to assume it was probably link/zelda just because of the forums (i keep repeating the same two ships over and over rip)

Have you ever gotten into ship discourse?

no. not in a public setting anyway. i tend to keep to the ships i like and steer clear of the ones i don’t, and if for some reason i come across one i don’t like enough times that it starts to annoy me i’ll bitch about it in private because i’m a big believer that occasional bitching with your friend group is healthy, or at the very least while not tagging it/censoring it so it’s not going to end up somewhere the people who do ship it can see it

Did you use to have any NOTP or have one currently?

i don’t think i ever had genuine notps before dmbj really, at most 99% of the time it’s not really what i’d qualify as a notp, more just ships i don’t really care for? but i don’t have any strong feelings about them either way. dmbj fandom is particular for me in the sense certain spaces and people have pushed certain ships onto me enough directly or indirectly i just immediately get annoyed whenever those ships pop up so i avoid them like the plague now. i’m not going to say what they are (even if if you know me you probably have an idea) but they do exist

Who were the couple in the last fanfic you read?

pingxie from dmbj the brainrot is very real 😂 though for lack of food i mostly read chinese language fics these days (reminds me i should also make myself some more food one of these days too)

Currently, do you have any OTPs?

absolutely no one is shocked it is once again pingxie my beloveds who’ve had me in a chokehold for the past two years now atp i am literally here forever help

Is there any couple that, to this day, you are extremely mad about not getting together?

uhhh you know what i was going to say not really but actually. and it’s weird i have such strong feelings about this since i never hardcore shipped them anyway but ichigo/rukia from bleach i just refuse to perceive that is not the endgame

Is there any ship you used to dislike but now you think they are kind of interesting?

not really? if anything the closest i can think of is zhongchi/tartali from genshin that i initially didn’t really understand the appeal of but i got curious and ended up liking it. i’ve drifted away from it now because i don’t really enjoy the genshin fandom in general, and i don’t agree with a lot of the takes on them but that happened i guess

Do you have any ship that, in the past, would've been considered normal but now you would be cancelled over?

honestly i can’t really think of anything besides hopelight from ffxiii? and i guess kaeluc from genshin but i also don’t super actively ship those it’s more of a casual thing. oh wait i thought of this coming back but i kinda vaguely like ardyn/noctis from ffxv also casually but that is definitely cancellable over material oops

What is your favorite crack ship?

i don’t do crack ships really because i’m Very Basic and have zero imagination so i need substance to connect dots 😂

What is the couple you read the most fanfics about?

i can’t tell if this is past or present tense so i’ll just answer both. if it’s purely the amount over time it’s probably a toss up between destiel from spn and soukoku from bsd. if it’s currently what do i read about it’s pingxie

What do most of your ships usually have in common?

this is such a loaded question, weirdly a lot of them start off with differing degrees of antagonistic or challenging/playful relationship going on (on the surface anyway) and it progresses from there, and the care is both intense but not so easily expressed. there are clearly exceptions to this exhibit a: pingxie but those tend to pop up more for some reason. this is not discourse by any means but for example it’s why i preferred klance over sheith and that’s all i’ll say about voltron because that’s a can of worms i refuse to open ever again. what i’m saying is sometimes i wonder why i’m not a heihua person because on paper that’s what i should be and yet here i am with the old married couple 500k slowburn of a ship instead 😂

What you absolutely hate in a ship?

i wasn’t sure about what to put here but @sunriseverse is right, anything that fundamentally changes either of the characters for the sake of the ship or a trope. fanfic by nature is ooc to a degree anyway, but there’s a difference for me between when people make the effort to understand the characters and how they work/would work together, and when they either reduce them to two-dimensional cardboard cutouts for the sake of smashing them together, or make them out to be something they’re not. even more so when it then becomes the Universally Accepted Fanon Characterization

Here's a bit of writing I made today

Ixo clocked out for the day, walking out to the rarely used back parking lot, passing by his truck on the way. He crawled through a hole in the fence into the small patch of woods behind where he worked and waited. He was glad to have this job, he genuinely cared for the Mother Flower that lived here and he could have dinner with his best friend afterward. The sound of heavy steps and disturbed leaves drew close to him, the source of which was Anikai, a Plainswalker. She had the usual coloration of white scales that all Plainswalkers have, on the top half of their body her scales were colored with faint hints of Navy Blue, bringing a nice bit of color to the overwhelming amount of white. 

Ixo braced himself for a mild headache as Anikai started to speak, “I brought a friend with me today.” 

A timid-looking Skydancer walked out from behind Anikai, their orange wings tucked away on their back. They had orange scales with a pale yellow underbelly. At the tip of their tail sat a pitch-black magic crystal, a portion in the middle of it was clear, making it look like an eye. Part of Ixo wondered if it could actually see, since despite how slim of a chance there was, it was possible. 

Ixo held out his hand to the Skydancer while wearing a warm smile, trying to show them that he wasn’t a threat. They walked up slowly and rested Ixo’s hand on their head, allowing a mental link to form between the two. A rush of blood reached his head, blurring his vision and making his legs stagger. When he recovered, he looked up at the Skydancer and spoke to them,

“I’m Ixo, what’s your name?” If their minds had linked properly then the two of them would be able to understand each other, the same as if they both spoke the same language. He had already done it once before with Anikai, so he knew how it was all supposed to work. 

“H-Hex. Anikai said you had food?” Ixo let out a small chuckle before reaching into his bag and pulling out their dinner. It was from Ixo’s favorite sandwich place. Anikai had become fixated on the “Two-Legged Delicacy” ever since she first tasted one, asking for a sandwich every night. Ixo grabbed half his usual portion before splitting the rest with the two Naherians. 

Between bites of his food, Ixo spoke to Hex, “I think the Mother Flower I care for here actually granted life to Skydancers.” He pointed to the mountain behind himself, “I wonder how she would respond if I brought you in there to see her.” He raised his head up, listening to the distant sound of a train. He called it out, “Hold on, a train’s about to pass by,” and right on cue, the train barreled past them down its tracks, “Huh. Must be 12:10 already.” Ixo said to no one in particular. 

Hex’s back was arched, having been startled by the train. “T-Thank you for the food,” they said nervously while eyeing their pieces of the sandwich, unsure if it was safe to eat. Anikai ate her share in only a few bites, letting Hex know that they had nothing to worry about. 

“How is the Mother Flower?” Anikai asked, “Thinking about it, I don’t think you ever properly explained what it is you do.” 

“Oh,” Ixo said with a bit of surprise, “She’s doing well. My job is mainly tending to her and her crystal flowers. Pruning, watering, fertilizing, weeding, stuff like that. I mainly do a lot of gardening with her. I was hired to keep her company, and I think I’m doing a good job so far. Sometimes, especially around twin moons, I’m put in a group that’s tasked with watching over the pool of magic. It’s covered by a thick layer of glass so nothing can go in or out, but we still need to observe and record how it acts. ” Ixo wiped his mouth and pulled out his phone, checking the time, “It’s a Friday night and I don't have to get up early tomorrow, you guys want to go anywhere? Maybe we could drive down to the beach.”

Hex glanced at Anikai nervously, “Bring us to where people are? I’m already risking enough by being near you.”

“It’ll be fun!” Anikai said, “The beach is lovely, especially at night.”

“But what if we’re caught?”

Ixo put on the calmest tone he could, “Nothing bad will happen to us, harvesting of your species was outlawed 20 years ago. And,” Ixo said, putting extra emphasis on the word, “If anyone does try to take you two away, I’ll stop them. I promise.” 

“A-Alright.” 

“Yes! Beach time!” Anikai said, overflowing with enthusiasm.

Ixo looked up from collecting their trash and flashed her a smile. He beckoned the two to follow him back to his truck before quickly slipping underneath the fence. Anikai, like always, jumped over it using her magic, landing with a cloud of dust. Ixo and Anikai often joked that this was the cleanest part of the parking lot because of how often she did this. Hex followed suit,  flying over cautiously and landing beside Anikai. Ixo grabbed the keys to his truck out of his pocket, it wasn’t the prettiest or newest thing in the world, and that was okay. All he needed of it was the back window to roll down and the bed to support Anikai comfortably. 

“Hex, if you don’t feel comfortable riding in the back with Anikai then you can probably squeeze into the cabin with me. I think you’re small enough to the point of that being a possibility.” Ixo said as he unlocked the hatch on the bed of the truck, letting Anikai jump up into it before closing it behind her. When he had gotten this truck, the first thing he did was install extra railings on the bed specifically for when Anikai rode down to the beach with him.

He walked around to the passenger side and opened the door for Hex, letting them inside, where they quickly found a comfortable position, (or at least bearable,) and settled down. Ixo reached over them and clicked the seatbelt into place, saying that they could never be too careful. After closing the door he made his way around the front of the truck to the driver's side before hopping into his seat, the engine roaring to life as he turned the key. Before they set off, Ixo made sure to roll down the back window for Anikai while asking if she was ready, receiving a nod in return. 

“Are you going to be okay?” He asked Hex, wanting to make sure that they were fine before putting the car into drive. 

“I think I’ll be okay. I might need to take deep breaths though.”

“Alright, just tell me to pull over if you need to catch your breath.”

Ixo pulled out of the back lot and followed the road down to the beach. It was quiet as always, with only a handful of other cars passing by. It wasn’t long before they made their way to the beach, parking at the top cliff that overlooked the ocean. 

“We’re here,” Ixo said as he rolled the windows back up and stepped out of the car. As he was unbuckling Hex to let them out he asked them what they thought about the drive,

“It wasn’t all that bad for my first time being in a… In a…” 

“Truck?”

“Yes, not that bad for my first time being in a truck.”

Anikai sprung out of the truck bed as soon as the hatch was dropped for her to do so, “Yes! Beach time!” She bounded over to the stairs that led down to the beach and waited for the other two to make their way over to her, hardly able to stand still. 

Ixo locked up the car before walking over to her, Hex shortly following down the steps after the two. Only the biggest moon was in the sky, its moonlight reflecting across the waves of the ocean. The trio made their way down onto the sand, quickly finding a spot to sit down. There were only five other groups on the beach tonight, four of which Ixo recognized as regulars who were already accustomed to his and Anikai’s antics. The other group on the beach simply didn’t mind what they did. 

“So Hex, is this your first time seeing the beach?” Ixo asked. 

“Yes, it’s quite relaxing.”

“Just wait until Anikai pulls you into the water, you’ll have no choice but to go swimming with her. Isn’t that right?” 

“Maaaybee,” Anikai said playfully. 

“One day I want to live in a big house on this beach with Anikai, that way we can hang out here every night. Maybe you could live with us too when that finally happens.”

“I think that would be nice.“

I just heard that you're doing requests!!! I already love your content and fully agree that Natsuo Todoroki is King~!!! If I may bother to ask a request? Just all the hcs you want to write about Ice Man bc it's getting to June where I live, and I don't mind cooling down~

Tera, my beloved, I'm going to be honest I literally fucking screamed upon seeing this request!!! I’ve been reading your fics before I even had like an acc here, so we vibin :) Also after the day I’ve had I need some fucking Ice man in my life n hopefully doing this will help me write my way out of the writers block that has been plaguing me for months!!!!

Future Blue here to say I had up to like all done last night and then my internet ate shit and I lost everything after 5. smfh. Woulda been done last night but the loss of my writing got me fucked up lolololololol. N e way

Warnings: cursing obvi, uh like nsfw for a hc or 2, my unorganized hcs that really follow no succinct line of thought and might not even be actual hcs???????

So Natsuo, 

There is not a thing I wouldn’t do for this man, bc honestly after all the shit he’s put up with he deserves the world and then some. But I digress.

1. I think he’s a hesitant but attentive boyf. Like he seems like a genuinely friendly dude but I think it’d take him a while to properly warm up to someone enough to date them. And even then I think he might struggle to open up to his partner about anything like, emotionally. Not to say he’s entirely emotionally closed off or anything but somethings are just harder to trust people with. The main thing being his familial issues. And of course that’s were most of this stems from. 

Now for the attentive part. His family dynamic has set a precedent on what not to do in a relationship so he’s always hyper aware of the things he or his s/o does, trying his best to avoid making any of the mistakes his parents made. Of course if he finds the right person he’ll be surprised to find that having a non-toxic relationship can be less stressful than he thought. It’s like a huge weight was just lifted from his shoulders.

2. He’s fucking hella romantic. Like he’s shitty romance movie romantic. He’s out here trying his best n woof. Gimme gimme. On date nights he pulls out all the stops. Sometimes it’s a nice classic dinner date at a pretty nice restaurant downtown, or it’s a picnic in the park at noon, or it’s stargazing from the roof of his or his s/o’s dorm/apartment/house, or driving out to a beach just for a long walk at sunset, or road trips to nowhere in particular. I could go on, I really could but you get the gist.

3. He’s got shitty pickup lines for days. Whenever I say shitty I mean like “god I hate it but at the same time I love it” kinda shitty. But yeah he likes to see his s/o’s reaction to his stupid pickup lines, whether they get flustered, or die laughing, or groan and make a snide remark, he’s here for it. Shoot one back at him and he get’s so absolutely red. Mans wasn’t ready. Mans will never be ready.

4. This just came to me but let’s be honest a lot of us here, myself included, have some sort of fucking daddy kink and like, I get it obvi but in this situation never call this man daddy. I feel like for him that is an instant turn off. I’m sorry to everyone I’m letting down but sometimes daddy issues don’t lead to a daddy kink. 

5. But on the topic of kinks I think this man is pretty vanilla, he doesn’t scream “freak” to me, you know? Just normal amazing sex. Oh but he does enjoy hella praise both receiving and giving.

6. Hopping off that train of thought and onto another I think he kinda tries to keep his s/o as far away from his family as possible. He doesn’t hate them (when I say them you know i mean everyone except Enji bc he avoids that man like the plague and like keeping his s/o far far far away from that man was a given), no he just likes to have something so utterly untouched by his family issues. Mans needs a breath of fresh air.

-These next 2 I think will veer off from being hcs a bit and just like shit that I like to think about in general. Does that make sense? Who knows lololol. N e way. I like to think a lot about two aspects of this man, well 1 aspect of the man himself and one....dynamic? It’ll make sense in a few so just hear me out. 

7. Ok so like I saw this post somewhere eons and eons ago. It was long before current manga events, maybe around the time we’d just gotten Natsuo in the manga. My memory of this post is hazy at best so bear with me as I stumble over my thoughts. Obvi at this point in time we had little to nothing on this beautiful, beautiful man, so people were left to theorize. So this one post, was really that shitty meme where it’s like “small brain if you think such n such, bigger brain if this, n galaxy brain if this, etc., etc.” Where in essence it was like, “He probably has a weak ice quirk but what if some sort of ice based healing quirk or no quirk at all!” N i think about it a lot to this day. I don’t believe that either of those are true but I do think it is absolutely immaculate food for thought so uh do with that what you will.

8. I guess this is back on hc territory but Natsuo isn’t picky with who he dates, as long as you’re not an asshole he’s kinda set, good to go. Now most of the fics for him you’ll see are like “ay yo, you’re another college hoe or like you’re just a civilian” but like what would the dynamic be if he dated a hero?????? I don’t think he hates heroes but his father has definitely had an impact on his view of them. He’s not enamored with them like I guess the rest of the population is so what if hero s/o?????? Perhaps?????? Have I suddenly had a fic idea??????? I like the idea of Natsuo with a like super popular Pro hero s/o or with like a super lowkey underground hero idk this whole post has been me spitballing shit.

9. Back onto proper hcs, it’s a common one that mans runs cold and ugh pls yes. It is also June rn and while the past few days have been cool and sexy the weeks prior had been hellish and on top of that I despise summer so give me all of that. Mans is your personal ac, he’s not opposed to his s/o just spending a hellishly hot day laying on top of him as they watch garbage reality tv.

10. Can we talk love language? Physical touch. He just radiates that energy. Probably touch starved, obviously due to you know what. But yeah definitely a hard physical touch. (Which is actually my least favorite love language considering I’m quite ✨𝓣𝓸𝓾𝓬𝓱 𝓻𝓮𝓹𝓾𝓵𝓼𝓮𝓭 ✨but hey I’m not here to project I’m just here to tell you what I see n therefore think) He likes to be touching his s/o like 24/7. Out in public shopping or some shit? Holding hands, linked pinkies, arm around the shoulders or waist. At home? Sheesh be ready to be smothered bb.

TLDR: What a man 🥵

I think I’ve gotten most if not all of my thoughts about our beloved ice man out. I hope you enjoyed my nonsensical ramblings :)

Have a good morning/afternoon/night!!!!!
