Zelink this or that cake

A Legend of Zelda 1 fanfiction for @zelinkcommunity event Zelink this or that week 3 cake with special guest Princess Peach.

Princess Zelda of Hyrule invite her childhood friend Peach Toadstool from the Mushroom Kingdom to help Zelda bake a cake for Link as a reward to the hero for saving her life from Ganon five years ago. The brown hair Zelda wearing a pink dress was happy to see the arrival of her red hair friend Peach on the day she arrived wearing a white and red dress.

In the kitchen, the two princesses are baking the cake and Zelda take a moment of breaktime to ask Peach, "So Peach, do you feel something from the guy whose saved you from a horde of monsters?" and Peach said, "I guess. I kinda fall in love with this older guy whose saved me from the King of the Koopa and allow him and his twin brother to stay in my castle as a reward." and then ask Zelda, "Why do you ask, Zelda?" The princess of Hyrule face turn red which allow Peach to figure it out and she said, "Oh, you are in love with Link." and Zelda nod as she said, "Since I awaken my powers two months before my mother's death, I have this dream of being married to a hero in green and bring Hyrule back to what it was during its golden realm. It was through those dreams that I knew Link's name before he told me when Link came to save me from Ganon." Peach smile that her best friend has found a boyfriend just as she remember the cake.

Link was amazed at the white cake that Zelda and her friend has bring to her.

I am aware I said i wasnt gonna post my zelda 2.0 redesigns until i finished them all, but considering these have been sitting for nearly a year at this point (and may have been mucked by the new game coming out soon but who knows) I figured I might as well start sharing them.

But yes Links are included this round, some have funny pages, I promise i’m using the magazine/game manual pink dress zelda, just probably not where you’re thinking

Happy 38th ! ✨

THE LITTLE LEGENDS

This is a blog for sharing and spreading love for the smaller Zelda games in the fandom!

For everyone crying over Spirit Tracks being forgotten, to people who wish someone else remembered the struggle to find a fourth player for Four Swords or sobbing at the end of online co-op for Tri Force Heroes – this is a home to join others in that love. Mainline and third-party Zelda games are all included!

The criteria for which Zelda games count as “small” is hard to quantify. To make things easier, we went by the numbers posted to Archive of Our Own, which has the option to disambiguate which game you’re writing for and is the current best-known fanfiction site. From there, we removed some things to try and narrow it down to core game fics and picked everything that was under 1000 works.

The resulting list of Zelda games is as follows:

CDI games = 14

Zelda cartoon = 29

Cadence of Hyrule = 50

Tri Force Heroes = 51

Oracle of Seasons = 76

Oracle of Ages = 85

Zelda II: Adventure of Link = 93

Zelda (1986) = 180

Spirit Tracks = 183

Phantom Hourglass = 191

Link’s Awakening = 256

Link to the Past = 260

Minish Cap = 290

Four Swords = 359

Four Swords Adventures = 423

A Link Between Worlds = 587

Wind Waker = 739

Some of this will be a case of poor tagging, and things winding up in the wrong place. (eg. Four Swords has 1200 entries, but upon removing all Four Swords Adventures or Manga story tags it reduces to 359.) Others may not be here at all because nobody has posted it under it’s own name vs a related game or “& Related Fandoms.”

While this means these numbers are not absolute, they still represent the problem: it’s hard to find content for your favourite games if it's in the list above, and we want to fix that!

WHAT DOES THAT ENTAIL?

The event we’re planning is very chill, very low-stakes way of building up interest and knowledge, and then collecting and sharing fanworks produced.

The event month will be AUGUST, 2024.

Every few days in August we’ll make a post for each game on the list (and any bonus games that were highlighted alongside the main ones), which people can reblog with a link to the fanwork they created! You can also make your own posts and tag the blog plus the game of the day but we cannot promise to see and reblog everything.

In the lead-up to August, we will be doing round-up posts for each of the above games.

Some will be doubled up and treated as “bonuses” due to their small pool of fans (CDI, the Cartoon), and if there are some we don’t know about we may take them on as suggestions!

Each of these initial game posts will include basic stats about the game: when they were released, on what hardware, where you can find them now, and what their story was. It will also include links to a walkthrough or two, for those without access to the necessary hardware.

The purpose of these posts is to be shared!

Reblog them with your favourite artwork, current fanworks you love and adore, your favourite AU they’re featured in! Share the lore you wish everyone knew, and the characters who get forgotten!

Share prompts you’ve never gotten around to using, or ones you don’t feel competent to handle!

Do not feel bad about doing this! Every exchange or event I’ve been in, people desperately wanted prompts and ideas to spark their own imagination!

The goal is for people to learn more about games that they may have never heard of before, or not had the time or ability to engage with in full on their own. And from there we can push up those numbers on AO3 for everyone to enjoy!

The scheduled games to be “main” features of this event, and their respective introductory dates, are as follows:

May 5th = Minish Cap

May 12th = Zelda II: AoL

May 19th = Oracle of Ages / Oracle of Seasons

May 26th = Cadence of Hyrule

June 2nd = Phantom Hourglass

June 9th = Four Swords Adventures / Four Swords [Game]

June 16th = Link’s Awakening

June 23rd = Zelda (1986)

June 30th = Link to the Past

July 7th = Tri Force Heroes

July 14th = Spirit Tracks

July 21st = Link Between Worlds

July 28th = Wind Waker

Exact dates for the posting schedule of new fanworks in August will be released soon!

Echoes of Wisdom Headcanon Countdown

༺ Day 69▪︎ 31 Left

All of Zeldas early designs, from the "classic" era's various interpretations of the character, are outfits she owns across different points in life. Her earliest concept art features clothes from her childhood (LoZ 1986/7) and her more polished art and certain manga appearances are what she wears as a young adult (AoL). One month left until we can dress up with EoW Zelda! ^^
