Summary
I am refrains about dreaming. I am legends that wait in the blood. I am mason jars full of secrets that shine out signals to you with their bioluminescent bodies— Notice me, name me, shelter me in the sunlight of your bones.

Shadows of History, The Original Draft. by PalmOlive

Summary
A simple cook's plot to overthrow the tyrant in order to save their little sister turns into a massive adventure alongside some unexpected new friends and allies, plus some dark secrets hidden in the shadows of history (wink wink) are brought to light after eons of being unknown. They work with King Ganondorf's daughter, Zelda, and another ally they did not foresee befriending.
This is an original LoZ story with an original Link and Zelda, plus a little surprise bonus guy. I plan on fixing some plot holes in the lore, and creating some of my own. I did some research, threw in some headcanons and boom, this was born from my brain like Athena from Zeus (haha Greek ref)
This loz au is currently being rewritten, so if you want some updates on how that's going, or some art of the characters, please check out my Tumblr, @shadowsofhistory

Bookmark Notes:
This work is to be rewritten, but the original version is worth a read while you wait. A very interesting premise balancing Zelda, the daughter of Ganondorf, and two Links, of which we're not yet sure is truly the hero, as they head out on a quest to help Hyrule and figure out their way as they go.

Summary
The two of them couldn't be more different if they tried.
Link can't figure out which aspect of Sidon makes explaining the simple concept of sex to him so difficult - his size, his status, his manners, him being a fully different species -
Or the simple fact that the both of them are hopelessly awkward, not to mention unfathomably stupid.(Despite this fic being a continuation - it can easily be read independently from Transmission!)

Summary
“Would you have chosen another path?” Zelda asked the knight, over a century ago.
She wasn’t talking about the knight. But if she was…
Link likes to think the knight would have. He knows, though, that the knight’s destiny was immutable—and so was Zelda’s.
It’s a shame Link has to pick up the pieces.
Link struggles with the legacy of the one who came before him.

A blade such as this seeks not to remain idle by PennamePersona

Summary
The night Link cut open his chest and spilled his greatest burden like all the blood that stained Blatchery Plain was the first time Zagreus heard him laugh.
On this night, as both of them lay bruised on the ground and their humor blends as easily as their combat skill, Zagreus cannot even begin to count how many times he has heard Link laugh.
---
Or: Zagreus & Link are more than their weapons, but that doesn't mean they're entirely separate, either. Also, jewelry shopping & an ill-fated raid of Hyrule Castle.Series

Ch1
“That eager to get down to it, mate?” Zagreus huffs. “Let a guy catch his breath first. It’s not a pleasant experience getting here, you know.”
-
“You’re going to make me think you only want me for my fishes at this rate. What about our blossoming friendship, huh? Where’s my hello? I feel underappreciated.”Link scoops up the chlams and tosses Zagreus a ruby, which he catches easily and slides into the satchel. Then he gives Zagreus a thoroughly unimpressed look and signs with exaggerated slowness. Hello. My name is Link. It’s nice to meet you. Tell me all about yourself so we can waste the whole night without getting to spar.
“Point taken.”
-
“Mine is goddess-blessed.” Link says. Though Zagreus is aware of the legend thanks to Kass’ song, he doesn’t have all the details. “Here, see if it hurts you to touch it.”Zagreus raises his eyebrows and brings Stygius back to his side. “Why would it hurt me?”
Link shrugs. “You’re full of Darkness. It’s different from Malice, but you still bring the blood moon.”
That’s good enough for Zagreus, who slides his hand along the exposed blade. It’s not glowing anymore, though it gives off a hum as Zagreus touches it. Link watches his face, and sees the way it twists first in confusion, then mild discomfort.
“It doesn’t hurt,” Zagreus murmurs, taking his hand off the blade. “It does feel strange, though. There’s an awareness in the blade, as though someone’s watching me.”
Link nods. He stares down at his sword for a long moment, wondering just what the spirit within it thinks of an Underworld prince in Hyrule. It doesn’t seem upset, at least, so there’s that. He puts the sword back in its sheath then, and both master and weapon relax.
-
Zagreus nods. “Titan blood strengthens it. Stygius shudders whenever I find some.”Link hums and strokes his hand along the blade. He can feel the power singing in the steel, reflective of its wielder. Zagreus and Stygius both are forged of Darkness and blood, but there is no malice to be found here. The Darkness in Zagreus is not so different from the Darkness in the Sheikah’s techniques. There’s a comfort in it, for Link, as well as an impulsive draw.
“What about other blood?” Link asks. He flips the blade over in his hands. “What would my blood do to it?”
“I’m not sure,” Zagreus admits. “I’ve never noticed anything when blood gets on the blade while I’m fighting, so probably nothing at all. You’re part of a legend though, and Hylian blood might be different on its own.”
Link nods, considering Zagreus’ words. Then he steadies his hand more firmly on Stygius’ hilt and stabs down into his thigh.
-
Link scratches the back of his neck. “Not exactly. I talked it over with one of the people who know I’m not a vai - that’s woman, in Gerudo. It’s more like...showing that we aren’t too proud to follow their customs. They know that men sneak in sometimes, and they also know that even if someone doesn’t look like a vai at first glance, that doesn’t mean they aren’t one. It’s more complicated than they let on, which at least deters the creepy guys.”It’s far more than Link usually says aloud, which at least reassures Zagreus that he’s thought this through. “Alright, that makes enough sense to me. I’m certainly glad you aren’t too proud and creepy to follow their customs.” He shoots Link a grin before clipping on his veil.
Link flushes a bit and coughs. “It’s partly that, but also…” He trails off and fidgets a bit, then raises his hands. It’s nice to be seen as not a man sometimes.
“Oh,” Zagreus nods. “I think I understand what you mean.”
Link looks at him and tilts his head curiously. He just stares for a few beats, then gets closer and straightens out some of the hanging bits on Zagreus’ outfit. He steps back and nods in satisfaction before turning and walking out of the shrine. Zagreus follows without hesitation.
-
Zagreus brightens and rifles through his satchel. “Lucky for you, I never remember to straighten out my things.” He pulls out three of the diamonds from Lernie’s bounty. “Would these suffice?”Link stares at him, eyes wide. Isha laughs and takes the diamonds from Zag’s hands.
-
“While I have you here, I’d love to request a few custom orders,” Zagreus says. Isha’s eyes light up and she runs to grab a notepad. Zagreus laughs and takes the cue to list off his requests. “I’d love a pair of earrings in the style of the sapphire circlet, if that’s possible. It looks amazing, but I have a headpiece that would get in the way of it. Also, would it be possible for you to make something with amethyst and gold? I have a friend who I think would love something in these styles…”

Summary
Link is sitting by a campfire somewhere between Clock Town and Goron Village. The cold bites at him through his thin Kokiri clothes, which always were fit more for the moderate temperatures of the forest than the freezing ones of the mountains. He is holding his hands, pink and small and fleshy, over the flames.
(Link, during Majora’s Mask.)

Summary
"And I can't even do that right! I'm the prince who's going to let his people die because he can't bear the thought of using his body that way, of being that figure of fatherhood and masculinity for his people. I'm the prince who runs away and buries himself in ancient relics and fruitless research. It's only a matter of time until I'll have no choice left in the matter."
Your research might save us, Link signs.
"Ha! Perhaps you are the only man in the kingdom who believes that, Sir Link."
Hyrule has no princess, no real hope against the oncoming Calamity, and its prince has better things to do than wasting his time on his research. These statements may or may not be true.

Summary
Link was split into four souls by the Four Sword, but even then they weren't strong enough to take down the evil that is Ganon. Not in this life anyways. But in the next one? There's certainly a chance... At least, that's what a certain hero in red believes.

Summary
“You cannot keep doing this, Your Highness,” Link said softly. The sound of their voice broke the tense silence within the princess’s chambers. “One day you’re going to get caught, and I won’t be there to cover for you.”
-
Set after The Calamity, not everything is magically perfect. While Hyrule still stands, so do the pressures of the royal court and King Rhoam himself. After being caught sneaking back in from masquerading as Sheik, Link confronts Zelda about the dangers she faces. Zelda breaks a little. -
Easy as Breathing (So Actually Pretty Hard if You Think About It) by PennamePersona

Summary
He doesn’t think people want to hear that the only change he noticed right after he was declared the Hero of Legend was a kind of settling inside him, like maybe he’d been waiting for the sword without realizing it, but now that he’s got it, he just feels fine.
He doesn’t think the Chosen Hero is supposed to feel “fine”.
Then again, he doesn’t think the Goddess-Blooded Princess is supposed to feel like a consummate failure with the weight of the world on her shoulders and next to no support from anyone around her, so maybe these expectations are nonsense and Link should see if swinging the Master Sword around would convince people to just lay off.
(He doubts it would.)
or
What does it feel like to be a Chosen Hero? Link's here to tell you, "probably not what you're expecting."

Summary
“No, I mean,” She hesitated. After a few seconds, they looked up to her, her small mouth biting her cheek. Princess Zelda, hesitating for a simple lowly knight like him, someone whose heart was thawing slowly in this small moment, “What are you?”
I’m not a boy.
“No, I mean, who are you then?”
Oh.
That’s what she meant.
He didn’t have a word for what he really was, so he just shrugged. Their armor clinked with the movement, and he itched to scrape it off, scrape off the metal that framed their shoulders, circular metal encasing his true self.
(Or, Link - a knight - comes out as non-binary to Princess Zelda.)
