WAIT the bastards hid them behind the logo!!!

that's definitely the same section of art as this:

so the hand joined with zelda's (?) belongs to this ????? (person? being? god? other??????)

and they’re the one whose arm link... inherits 

and who has apparently been holding ganondorf in place for 10,000 years

Optimistic view: this being lends their power to link via magic arm for the duration of the game.

Less optimistic (and way more speculative) view: if ninty do go for any time travel shenanigans and botw Link goes back in time, could this being actually be Link? Or, at the end of the game, what if that power cannot be separated from Link, and in order to seal Ganondorf away again... he has to be the one to do it...

a/n edit: I'm so MAD i typed this out about 5 days ago then didn't post it, and now with the update it's slightly irrelevant because it is being more discussed BUT here this is anyway –

sorry but I'm thinking about how we recently learned that Wild knew an older/ghost(?) Twilight during his journey. I've read so many fics with this premise but 95% of the time it's a younger twi who remembers being a companion, and now we have a canon that is clearly not that...

thinking back over the content of the comic so far I'm going crazy thinking about how for all that time, for every moment we've seen so far, wild knew.

Twi has been brooding and tight-lipped about his connection to Time, but it's been an underlying thing we (the readers) are aware of. And it's pure tragedy, for us and for Twi, knowing what Time's fate will be. Wild, meanwhile, must know something of Twilight's fate. which, narratively, is [dial-up-modem noises]. It's about the time-travel-fuckery!!! It's about the tragedy of one having met the other before, but the other doesn't know— but for three people! Twi silently bears the loneliness of knowing someone who doesn't know him, of knowing a version of Time who doesn't yet exist. Twi carries this burden of knowledge, while (apparently?) being oblivious to the fact that the other member of the chain he's particularly close to carries the same knowledge about him. [edit: yesterday's update implies that wild has explained to twilight that they've met before, but we still don't know how much he revealed, so...]

we've seen the way the knowledge affects twi

But we haven't until now seen any hint of how knowing of Twilight's fate affects wild. We haven't even seen a hint that he knew more. Why????

His close relationship to twilight is evident but there's an easiness between them. Wild has never gazed after twilight solemnly...

...has never had the air of secrecy and tension with twi that twi has with time.

And ok this could just be something jojo missed or didn't think about, but why did wild say this about companions, if he apparently had one the whole time?

Wild has been a largely light-hearted personality among the group so far and he has appeared to be very honest about his journey, but this maybe blows that all open by implying how much he's been hiding about what he knows. He can't have told twi much of anything, if twi thinks he had no companion.

AND while we know the story of Twilight and Time from TP (except any changes jojo might have made that we haven't seen), what happened between Wild and Wolfie is a complete mystery to us! It's a story that's entirely jojo's creation! So... What was their relationship like? What was Twi like, being noticeably older? Was he alive and dragged to another time, or was he a spirit? We saw him with both wild and zelda—

wild's long hair implies this moment didn't occur pre-calamity, while zelda's long hair implies it was before the point pre-TOTK when she cut it shorter, so probably not long after they defeated ganon? Which means wolfie, having met wild soon after he emerged from the shrine of resurrection, was still around after wild's journey? What happened to him? Did he leave, and did they get to say goodbye? Or were they still together when wild hopped through that portal? Did wild ever know wolfie was actually Hylian, let alone a hero, or did he have to figure that out when he met Twilight for the first time? Was twi ever able to turn into his human form and actually speak to wild? Who or what brought him to the botw era?

If he's a spirit, same as Time - what is twilight going to regret so much that he sticks around?

Has wild altered his interactions with twi because of this? knowing that whatever twi finds out about him now, could prepare him for when he meets the younger wild... [edit: Plus now we know wild had some kind of intense reaction upon first meeting twi]

obviously i imagine (hope) we get answers to some of these in the comic, but i also think this new info is so ripe for us making content and I've hardly seen anything beyond the initial keysmash reactions. because this is genuinely making me 🤯🧐 Especially the parallel but clearly different dynamics of twilight & time VS. wild and twilight; the knowing and not knowing, the "one day you'll meet a younger me, and I won't know you, but here and now, i know you while you don't know me".

And, as a sidenote, all this is making me think— is wind the only one who has been honest about what he knows about his predecessor...?

[ladlez]

wars seems like he needs a drink tbh lol

[ladlez]

can we talk about this line...

[ladlez]

TAKING OFF MY CLOWN MAKEUP!!!!

[ladlez]

i know it’s been a long time since it happened but i feel like we don’t appreciate enough the fact that twi literally ripped off dink’s tail w his teeth

[ladlez]

i see this man in a run down roadside bar loosely holding a glass that's been empty for ten minutes and staring sightlessly into the middle distance and the bartender gives me a meaningful Look and a shrug as if to say "who knows, man..." but after I've ordered my whiskey (neat) i glance back at him a couple barstools away and notice smears of dirt on his face and dried blood under his nails and he's got that look about him like he's not quite sure what he's doing or where he's going or even where he's just been, that look like the neighbor's boy billy who came back from the war different somehow so i sigh heavily and catch the bartender's eye to say "....make that two, will ya?"

[ladlez]

Ganondorf???!!!!

Zelda (and Link???!???!!!?)
