Father of Time, Chapter 7: What We Celebrate

“Dad, I don't know when my birthday is.” Link paused with a spoonful of porridge halfway to his mouth. He set the spoon back in the bowl, his brain finally awake enough to remember the plan for today. 

“You had yours already. It was in the fall.” 

Link stared suspiciously at his father, sitting across the table from him and calmly eating breakfast.  “You're not actually my dad, are you? How do you even know that?” 

Deity gave him a mild look, blank eyes always filled with something . Link groaned and rubbed his hair into an even worse mess. “Ug fine, you're a god or something. I get it. Why didn't you tell me?” 

“I cannot impart knowledge on you if I don't know you need it.” 

Well, that was fair. 

Link went back to eating, thoughts chasing each other around his head.  Well, that was one mystery solved. Maybe he could figure out–  “Mmmphl!” 

“Don't talk with your mouth full.”

With a quick swallow that was slightly too hot on his throat, he waved his spoon around excitedly. “Dad! How old am I?!” 

“Physically or mentally?”

~What i couldve been~

I was just gonna do the adult timeline zelda but im so enchanted by the idea of these two versions of the same character. People always talk about how link would be changed but never zelda.

Lyrics are from the song Like Real People Do by Hozier

Des if you’re seeing this, your post about the song sooo is the reason I remembered it and made this btw

I told about friend about this and got hit with a baseball bat of self awareness so I’m a teeny bit embarrassed to even post this god

My favourite little detail in Majora's Mask is how the guards refuse to let you out of Clocktown because you're a child, until you get a sword, after which they immediately start calling you 'sir' and treating you as an adult. I'm sure the conflation between adulthood and the ability to carry a sword means nothing coming on the heels of the game where Link was turned into an adult so that he could wield the Master Sword. Says nothing about Link's worldview and psyche either. Complete coincidence I'm sure.

Shout-out to Tatl, the one who taught Mask how to swear (my HC)

Tatl "Link! What are you doing here?!"

Mask "Me? What are YOU doing here?"

Mask "Oh. That ain't good"

Tatl "No shit"
