i would like to know your head canons for how well each of the links can braid hair ( i will share mine later when i can think straight )

Time - Hmm on the fence, learning towards no. The only person who may have taught him to braid is Malon. I'm not sure she would have ever had the reason or opportunity to.

Warriors - has no idea XD. I headcanon that Linkle is his long lost twin and they were separated from eachother as young children. Then Warriors grew up in a home for boys and then joined the military as soon as he was able. He never had the opportunity to learn to braid.

Twilight - definitely knows braiding, but also the fancier kinds of braiding like French braid, inside-out French braid, herringbone, etc. From a lifetime of caring for the manes and tails of horses and the children of his village.

Sky - Yes he can do it, but not very well. He grew up an orphan with no siblings, but he was close friends with Zelda and she taught him when they were kids.

Four - He's never braided before, but he's smart enough he could easily figure it out and get good at it on his own.

Legend - Yes, he can braid. Ravio taught him how to braid string to make pretty price tags for items, but Legend didn't learn how to do it with hair until he met Marin. He likes braiding hair of the other Links because it reminds him of her.

Hyrule - A Great Fairy taught him, but he's not very good at it because he doesn't often get the opportunity to braid anything.

Wild - Doesn't know how to braid. Zelda tried to teach him, but his post-resurrection brain couldn't understand it. He's more of a gross motor skill kind of guy than a fine motor skill kind of guy.

Wind - Definitely knows how to braid. His grandmother taught him so he can braid his sister's hair when she is too busy or her hands are too arthritic. He's not as good as Twilight, but he's better than most.

Okay, so like. Can you explain *what it is* about Four that makes him so blorbo?

Infodumping time? Infodumping time. Alright, let's take it from the top:

Four wasn't my favorite character at first, and I was pretty neutral to most of the Links at first anyway save for Twilight. When I got more into LU, I noticed that it was mentioned that the Colors would be based off of the FSA manga. Little baby Silver adored that manga in particular and had a big crush on Vio and Shadow. With the knowledge of the Colors in LU, this led to fanfiction and consuming as much of it as possible that featured the boys in varying interpretations. Somewhere in that timeframe, I read beloved @fuckit-hero-of-trains fic Alone Together and HylianHarmony's fic Colors, and they solidified Four as my favorite character. There were other fics, but those two inspired how I write Four myself.

Now for more about why him specifically: I've always loved and had a fascination with "black-haired anime boy with a tragic backstory" types of characters. The Four Swords Adventures manga has pretty much that exactly, though that specific fandom has definitely expanded the characters more and made them so wonderful. The knowledge of the source material always makes it easier to cause pain and suffering to characters, hence why I always choose Four as a victim. Then there's also the fact that my favorite subject has always been psychology and that I enjoy writing and reading characters dealing with intense situations and the aftermath of those situations, and you get "Threatening Darkness".

This turned into a tangent, but to sum it up I guess: I like Four cuz I've had an attachment to the Colors since I was much younger, his backstory based off of that plus the different interpretations of his character make him very fun, and the psychology is a major interest for me.

Since I tagged Train, I'm hoping they've got some thoughts as well, but I wanna hear other people's thoughts on Four too, cuz I feel like I could've explained this all better.

I'm honestly okay with anything as long as people stay respectful, but the stans never do stay respectful, at least not the ones I've encountered. do you see me going to their pages and sending them unnecessary shit? no, bc I'm very mindful like that, very demure.

Sky!!! 2 and 20 :D

Hello Ace! I imagine you mean HSH Sky.

2. Favorite canon thing about this character?

That Sky can kick ass. He is the epitome of "walk softly but carry a big motherfucking stick." His hobby is napping and he loves his girlfriend and his callsign is Godkiller. We'll eventually find out that he's one of the few to best Champion in hand-to-hand combat during training, at least during one memorable occasion, and yet he's also the friend that if you sit too close to him on the couch you're probably going to get assimilated beneath that blanket for snuggles. Really, though, who wouldn't want to play with that floofy hair while he's snoring?

20. Which other character is the ideal best friend for this character, the amount of screentime they share doesn't matter?

I am a sucker for Sky and Warriors mainly because they're big foils for one another. Where Warriors is obnoxious and extroverted and likes to push others' buttons, Sky is soft and sweet, he'll go for coffee with a friend to cheer them up, and he knows exactly how to push others' buttons but he really wouldn't.

Unless you're Groose.

I think the other best friend in the house would be Hyrule, specifically because that boy needs to learn some self-care in the form of rest, damn you. Sky would be an ideal day-off buddy for Hyrule in that he would make sure Rulie gets in some quality z's.

rereading through lu bc i was bored and all i have to say that legend thinks time has good taste since malon is a redhead 😂

He's not wrong though XD. It's funny how 3/9 Links all have redheaded love interests. Is it a coincidence or is it an LoZ pattern?

[oc-master]
