me, so innocently: y'know the corpse au stuff seemed kinda cool, and i didn't feel that squeamish reading about it. what's the harm in looking it up?

me, not even five fucking minutes later:

[margindoodles2407]

can i hear about your different perspective on sheik pretty pls 👀

Of course!

Okay so. Please bear with me because there's a lot of nebulous Sheikah magic involved but the gist of it is that Sheik and Zelda (at least in Ocarina of Time) are two completely seperate people.

Before I get into it, to anyone reading, this is not an attack on other people's interpretations of Sheik and OoT Zelda. Those other takes are completely 100% valid because, at the end of the day, they're fictional characters and can be headcanoned however the heck you want. All I ask is that you kindly respect my opinion, and if you don't like it, that's okay! You don't have to agree with it and are 10000% free to continue enjoying your own.

I am gonna put a cutoff so that if people think it might upset them they don't have to read it, but if you'll be fine, then please continue below!

The main driving force behind this is to examine how it would affect Zelda's mental state later in life, but basically:

Sheik and Zelda are two completely different people. The next few notes are taken directly from my google doc explaining my thought process. A lot of this is taken from the OoT Manga, and then expanded.

SO.

Sheik.

Yes.

He is NOT Zelda.

7 years ago, when Zelda and Impa escaped Ganondorf’s clutches for the first time, the young princess realized that the Evil King’s minions would never stop hunting her and her handmaid. So she asked Impa to hide her- in any way possible.

Impa was reluctant, but she knew it would be better for Zelda to go into hiding willingly than be forced to. So, using ancient Sheikah magic, she sealed the princess away in a special portion of the Sacred Realm, transferring her memories into the body of a young Sheikah boy.

But this is important to note- Sheik was an ENTIRELY different entity from the princess. He was a creation of Impa’s magic, destined to fade away when the time came for Zelda to awaken. Zelda’s memories remained in him so he could help the hero, but they were modified so that it was as if Sheik was a third-person bystander- Impa’s orphaned nephew and Zelda’s closest friend, inseparable from her and watching her at all times, always conveniently hidden away so that these modifications wouldn’t conflict with the Hero’s memories when he awakened from his slumber. 

Speaking of memories, Sheik DID remember Zelda being sealed away, but this memory was HIGHLY modified so that the sealing was all that remained with him. He didn’t remember Zelda’s memories being transferred to him, or the fact that Impa cried for two days afterwards. 

ANYWAY. Moving on…

After Ganon’s hostile takeover, Impa and her young nephew fled to Impa’s hometown of Kakariko village, where Impa trained him in espionage, assassination, and ancient Sheikah martial arts in secret. To the outside world, however, Sheik was simply the mysterious boy who helped with trading between the town and the nearby Lon Lon Ranch. But by the time he's 17, Impa's trained him become an official Sheikah Ninja.

He manages to get into Ganondorf's ranks and becomes a double agent; in reality, his goal is to give aid to the Hero of Time that the princess loved so much.

So when Link awakens, Sheik is there. 

When Link travels, Sheik accompanies him in the shadows.

By the time the Hero has completed the Water Temple, he and his Sheikah advisor have become best friends. Inseparable, bound by their quest to help the Princess, and eventually by other things too. (It helps that Malon is a mutual friend.)

But when all the temples have been freed…

When Link travels back to the Temple of Time…

When the time comes for the Princess to awaken…

Sheik ceases to exist.

Zelda remembers him, but much like her modified memories, she remembers the events of the past seven years as if she were a third-person bystander.

She remembers Sheik, but more like he was her brother than like she was him. More importantly, she MISSES Sheik. He saved her life, kept her safe for seven years, allowed her to make connections and friendships she wouldn’t have made otherwise.

So yeah, that's the gist of it. She also eventually names her son Sheik, because of the aforementioned reasons. I've just worried I couldn't ever post this for fear of getting attacked for it. But yeah, that's my take on Sheik. If y'all've got any questions about him or any other headcanons of mine, feel free to drop 'em off in my inbox!

Bloberta being rich and having a house maid as her close friend. Her braiding her hair and telling each other secrets, i mean..

pt.2 to my other one

I find it funny that Wild, who has basically a couple years ish of full life experience, comes up with the most insane theories for everything

He assumed that the only other explanation to Four being able to split in Four was. That he was quadruplets who'd been hiding this whole time???

Also apparently he believed that his wolf companion Twilight in botw was a diety (and felt very uhh shocked upon finding out that he was not)

Malon made things worse, telling him about her aliens theory

What's even FUNNIER is that every time Wild expresses any sort of confusion at magic stuff that he's never seen before, everyone else in the chain acts like it's crazy for him to be weirded out by it

Honestly maybe Wild's the only one with his head on straight, rather than everyone else who are just like 'it's magic bro' like no he's right this is weird

I appreciate this because it's very considerate of the fact that he woke up with no memories not too long ago, so he doesn't have much experience to explain the stuff that's 'normal' for the chain. Plus the explanations he comes up with are funny.

Art and comic and adorable character by Jojo @linkeduniverse au :D

[archiarthur]

The Texan rizz

[kooldewd123]

for as much shit as the art style gets, i still maintain that the animorphs graphic novels have my absolute favorite human tobias design.

this is the wettest, most pathetic tobias i've ever seen. his clothes are visibly more wrinkled than everyone else's, he's always walking around with a pair of ratty headphones, and he's desperately trying to pull off a hair style that just isn't working. one look at this guy and you can instantly believe jake met him with his head shoved in a toilet. hell, i almost want to shove his head in a toilet. a+ work, no notes.

Do you ever think that DC had a meeting going: Ok who do we turn gay to please the demographic?

Not Batman or Nightwing obviously. They’re the main characters with title comics.

Not Barbara. We can’t have Dick’s love interest be lesbian. Plus people might mistake her for Kate bc Batwoman is already lesbian.

Not Jason. He was already controversial when we brought him back.

Not Steph and Cass, they’re already kids of villains. We can’t have people accusing us of changing them and making them to appease the wokes. And Cass is already Asian so we shouldn’t add another thing. On the same thought, Duke is out bc he’s already Black.

Not Damian bc he’s a kid and a main character. And also bc we’re making Jon Kent come out and we can’t have them dating because ‘reasons’

Tim it is then. We haven’t done anything with him recently.

[barrenclan]

are we going to see defiance again in the main plotline? did you have an ending for defiance in mind, or were they more of a plot device. this deer is going to drive me insane

I think possibly continuing to read the comic will answer these questions for you!

[sunrizef1]

You tell them, king

I wholeheartedly agree and will support every wrong or right it takes for him to get there
