haven't worked on fanfic of my own in almost a year. finally trying to get back into it w/ the thing i'm not telling anyone about and to get my feet wet gently i decided to go ahead and edit what i have already (about 9 and a half chapters out of an estimated total of 36, coming in at...90k already, good fucking god). anyway in chapter one there's this exposition scene that's too long and probably in the wrong place so i decided to rewrite it to make it shorter. guess what happened. i made it longer. kill me.

Hi it's slate anon your surnames post/the replies had me cackling and i love the idea of revali having a very Rito-sounding last name. on a more angsty note I do like to imagine he would pick his own last name (as per your orphaned hc for him) for one related to flight/archery. Writing his own destiny or something

For Hylians maybe because of Rhoam I imagine their names are just (Chosen name) (Middle name only royals can afford) (Place of birth). The royal family gets the surname Hyrule because they're meant to represent all of Hyrule and it's hard to convince the kingdom you serve them all equally if your name is literally Tabantha

So Links government name is Link Hateno. And with Hateno being a major settlement and Link being by far the most common name (as the name of the biggest cultural figure that's not sacred (ie hylia) or for royals (zelda)) he has the most basic combination of names ever it's laughable. there were 4 other Link Hatenos in his division only. If Revali writes a letter to his Link Hateno in the royal guard he gets a request back from the post office like "specify address rank and date of birth please". Being named Link he naturally had a number of nicknames but after he pulled the sword he just became Link. THE Link. But you already know who's taking whose last name in the marriage anyway

And good luck with your exam!🫡

HI SLATE ANON!!! 🫶🫶 thank you for the luck, i hope it rings true when i get my exam back 😭 come here and say hi @cryiling @iridescentgleam my anon thinks u guys are funny 😽

revali choosing his own last name because he was orphaned makes me so sad 😭💔 what if there's a rito traditional ritual where the family name is like. "given" to the child to formally recognize them as part of the family in a spiritual sense (connecting the child to all their spiritual ancestors of generations past). and revali's parents were killed before they could give revali their family name so he doesn't have one 😭 even though the other rito are allowed to tell revali what his family name would have been, he's not allowed to claim it as his last name because it wasn't given traditionally to him through the ritual and thus can't be "his" last name anymore and it ostracizes him even more from the rest of the kids. imagine getting bullied because you don't have a last name 😭

idk like the rito seem like a people of tradition, spirituality, and familial bonds like family is everything to them, therefore the concept of a family name is an extremely important identifying marker of each rito and where they come from. choosing your own last name isn't something that's common among the rito at all, because choosing a different last name than the one that was given to you as a child signifies that you have disinherited and detached yourself from your family. even people whose families have already passed don't just change their last names like that, because it would mean that their family spiritually would not have anymore descendents after that point.

in revali's case, his family is dead and he also wasn't given a last name so technically there's nothing wrong with him choosing his own last name, but the rito would have still been weird about it. when revali is chosen as a champion, he finally decides to choose his own last name and he chooses one that essentially means "one who perseveres." i'm spitballing a little here but maybe in rito script, it's basically like. a stylized way of writing the word "arrow." archery and the usage of arrows are important symbols of rito culture, because they're weapons and tools they use to hunt and protect themselves. they represent the rito's actual lives because of this and so became a symbol of vitality and perseverance. so in a sense, revali knows if he knocks his bow and his arrow always flies true, he will always persevere and make it out of a tough situation.

i like your idea about the hylian naming scheme! rhoam really is the only character in botw that has a proper full name, but since he's rich and royal he's not really hashtag Relatable ✋😒 it is pretty much the same naming scheme of the king in wind waker, king daphnes nohansen hyrule and i just found this reddit thread that gives possible etymological explanations for both daphnes and rhoam's names (daphnes = "person who was turned into a wooden boat of hyrule" and rhoam = "roaming shepherd of hyrule"), but i wonder what the narrative reasons they were named as such were. like are bosphoramus and nohansen the names of older family members or ancestors? do they have inherently royal meanings to them?

LINK BEING A COMMON NAME JUST GETS ME like you're absolutely right, of course everyone is naming their kid after a legendary hero in hopes that their kid will be Thee Link of the century but idk it's just so funny to me 😹😹😹 like "four other Link Hatenos in his division" YOU DKJFHDJKFHDHFKD link was NOT special until that fucking sword this fits in perfectly with his vibe of just being Some Guy.

ok but consider that rito don't really understand the idea of taking their spouse's last name when marrying because they have such a complex understanding of family names, spirituality, and their ancestors, so link trying to explain to revali that he wants to take revali's last name when they marry and revali is like ...? what the fuck are you talking about

link being like, "i wanna be a family with you 🥺" and revali being like "but what about your family???? you would abandon them so easily???" and link is just like. revali my family has been dead for a hundred years and my last name is literally hateno. DKFJDHJFKJD

This Brings Back Memories

Hashtags are present on many social media platforms and used in a variety of different ways. In this post I will share with you the origin of hashtags, the purpose they serve, and I will also add reasons why #tbt is my favourite hashtag.

I find it hard to believe that it has been over 15 years since the idea of a hashtag was first introduced. the below picture is a copy of the tweet posted by Chris Messina

Since this first humble suggestion to use a pound sign now known as hashtag, Twitter and many other social media platforms use them, but not exactly as they were originally intended. Originally it was meant to separate messages from people to different groups, but nowadays it used more like a search keyword or a tool to categorize posts by relevant topics. While the idea of a hashtag came from a Twitter user, nowadays it is used also on other social media sites

My favourite hashtag is #TBT or #ThrowbackThursday. This is usually used in connection to posts related to past events and experiences. The content of the post is usually sentimental to the person posting it. A fond memory of a past experience, sometimes even a selfie from a decade ago or similar ideas. See below two examples of use of #TBT alongside other hashtags on Twitter. I like #TBT because it often reminds me of the past experiences I have been through. Using hashtags like this in my view makes social media much more relatable and friendly place.

The above tweet uses hashtag tbt. April 27th of this year was indeed a Thursday, so it is appropriate to use this hashtag. Even more so because it refers to a past event, In this case a concert from 1977. One, that people like my father would have been able to attend. In that case this post would certainly bring back memories.

It is interesting to note that #TBT is used even for content in languages other than English. The above example is a case of a mild misuse of this hashtag. It is used on Tuesday instead of Thursday. This tweet has been posted just a couple hours before I made this post and today is Tuesday. Otherwise, this use of hashtag TBT in this post is completely appropriate. Even if it is just because it refers to an event which happened back in 1994.

According to the Influencer Marketing Hub #TBT is one of the most popular hashtags on Twitter. It is very common on social media to be posting every day of the week so it is not surprising to see that #ThrowbackThursday is not the only hashtag which includes a day of the week. There is a lot of hashtags, and it is very easy to create a unique and new one.

Do you have a favourite hashtag?

Gorgeous is such an annoying song because on the one hand it is not very good, on the other "you should think about the consequence / of your magnetic field being a little too strong" and "I'm so furious at you for making me feel this way" and "ocean blue eyes looking in mine / I feel like I might sink and drown and die" and "you make me so happy it turns back to sad / there's nothing I hate more than what I can't have" and god.... yeah
