Summary
The Calamity is over, and Hyrule is free. But while Link has had months to come to terms with the world he left behind, for Zelda it is only now beginning. As her body heals, she finds it is not just physical recovery she needs. Wracked with guilt that her powers woke too late to stop the calamity and haunted with dreams of Link dying in her arms, she must make peace with all she has lost, before she can find a way to move forward in the world she saved.
[Post-Calamity. Zelink. Healing, grief, and choosing the life you want.]

he looks like the real thing by beebee13

Summary
And that’s what they are- children playing house, one hundred years of divinity trying their hand at domesticity. She can’t do it, can’t let him look at her the way he does, with everything in his expression so different from the Link before except that stupid undying loyalty.
Zelda cannot kill him again. Somewhere in her mind, the child’s blocks collapse, and she leaves in the night.
or,
At the end of everything, Zelda learns to move on.

the blood in my mouth (and the bitterness in goodbye) by Ashthevalkyrie for ilike_color
Fandoms: The Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild/Tears of the Kingdom

Summary
It’s time for Link to return to favor.
The dragon’s tear rises into the air. It glimmers just above Link’s head, glowing with the remnants of Zelda’s familiar power, and pop!
Water rains down around him. Everywhere it touches, flowers spring up, and as the last droplet settles into the earth, Silent Princesses rise from the ground, budding and blossoming as blue as the sky.
He might not be able to save her. But he can fulfill his promise, and that resolve seals the crack in his heart like hot wax. The roots catch fire. The flowers in his chest burn away. It hurts so, so much.

A Wild Linkle Appeared! by PsionSorceress (QuagsirePaladin)
Fandoms: Linked Universe - Fandom
30 Dec 2024
Tags
Summary
Linkle was enjoying a mostly-peaceful retirement after defeating the Calamity, traveling around Hyrule and reconnecting with the friends and family she had forgotten from amnesia, until eight ancient heroes came looking for a new Link to join the Chain. Pretending to be a man in order to prank her legendary predecessors wasn't on her bucket list until now, but when her best friend Zelda says they were inviting "Sir Link" to join them on a quest to eradicate black-blooded monsters, she had the perfect opportunity. Will her little practical joke keep all the boys at arms' length, or will the Heroine of the Wild find herself gaining a new set of brothers on this time-space-hopping adventure?
(Yes I know I'm late to the party on this whole "Chain Meets Wild" thing, but I hope I brought a fresh twist!)

Summary
The Hyrulian royal family passes down power from mother to daughter, a bloodline that has gone unbroken for millennia. In the rare instance a son was born to the family they would not be recognized as a prince. Instead they would be fostered by a royal knight and his family. This was seen as a far more kind outcome than the old practice of infanticide practiced before the era of the Hero of Legend.
When Hyrule falls to the Calamity so to die the old ways, the old laws, the old religion. The people of this new Hyrule see no reason to cling to archaic traditions when the one that helped stop the Calamity and save Hyrule would have been scorned. Instead they embrace him and support him.
Efforts to rebuild have begun and the Chain show up to add Wild to their group.
