    Summary

    After 100 years, Calamity Ganon has finally been sealed away. Zelda has returned to the mortal plane and Link; Hero of Hyrule, is right there beside her. Surely acclimating to this whole "being a person" business will be a cinch, right? It's not like Zelda died after all.

    Link may not be the same boy who went into that shrine all those years ago and Zelda is certainly not the same girl who prayed to the Goddess Hylia until her voice gave in, but she can't help but find comfort in the many ways Link is still the same, even if he doesn't know it himself. Even though the whole world has literally fallen to pieces, he's still there, steadfast and devoted as he was at the very beginning. Or so the legends claim.

    That being said, she could do with knowing what she's supposed to do now.

    Summary

    When Ophelia and August inevidently meet moments before the Calamity Ganon curses the peaceful lives in Hyrule, they are forced to survive together, although not seeing eye to eye. What started as a deal to get along and work as a team until arriving the sanctuary Kakariko Village, slowly turned into an unforgettable journey of trauma, grief, betrayal and love. Will they be able to overcome their emotional turmoil together, and - most importantly - survive?

    Summary

    Link groaned.

    “I want a baby,” Zelda said, her hands on her hips. “Are you going to give me one or am I going to have to look elsewhere?”

    “No, I’ll give you a baby.”

    “Don’t sound so thrilled,” Zelda said, rolling her eyes.

    Summary

    “Your job isn’t done, Hero,” Zelda said. “Don’t you want to finish saving Hyrule?”

    Link looked down at the slate. For a moment, she thought, her heart skipping in her chest— that he didn’t.

    But then he looked up, determined. “What do you need from me, Princess?”

    She swung the bag over her shoulder, a smile forming on her face. “Let’s go get you that sword.”

    Link, just days after waking up on the Great Plateau, wanders into the castle wearing little more than tattered trousers and a threadbare shirt, carrying rusty swords and little else— and defeats Ganon, as he should have a hundred years ago.

    But he remembers nothing. Not Zelda. And not the child she’s carrying inside her.

    Summary

    A lot can change in a hundred years, but two constants remain: the bond between Hyrule's princess and her knight, and the never-ending nuisance that is the cult trying to kill them both. A series of short stories spanning across the BOTW/TOTK timeline of our favorite power couple outsmarting the Yiga Clan with varying levels of wackiness.

    Summary

    “You don’t have to be with me here, you know,” Zelda said. The breeze over Hyrule field was hitting her bare shoulders. She tried not to shiver. She knew Link would offer her his shirt or his cloak if she did. She didn’t want that— she’d already taken so much from him.

    Link snorted, crouching by the fire. “Where else would I be?” he said, his tone amused, almost like he was humoring her.

    “I don’t know,” she said, looking into the fire, her eyes glassy, “anywhere.”

    Summary

    Link didn’t want to go, he didn’t want to leave! He had questions, so many questions and he didn’t want to go! But the bright light surrounded him and whited out his vision, and for a moment it felt like he was flying. And then he was standing at the entrance to Zora’s Domain, arm stretched out, reaching for someone who no longer existed.

    Any Breath of the Wild/Tears of the Kingdom one shots I come up with while playing the games. Tags/characters will be updated with each new one shot and just be aware, I like making Link suffer :)

    Summaries for the most recent one shot will be displayed here, every other one shot will have its summary posted at the top of the chapter plus any specific trigger warnings for that chapter!

    Enjoy! <3

    Summary

    From glares to soft glances.

    From mocking comments to heart-warming words.

    Link would describe his' and Revali's relationship as what one would experience if they threw themselves down the tallest mountain. Before the calamity they struggled to understand their feelings and turn them into love; after it, they fought with forgotten memories and aching hearts.

    Are they really that strong?

    Summary

    She looked up at his handsome face, and her heart squeezed with deep adoration. She reached up and caressed his cheek idly. She realized all at once then and there, that she was undeniably in love with him. She loved him so intensely it shocked her. Her best friend, her dutiful protector, her biggest supporter, her closest confidant. She had been more than willing to risk her safety and her life if it meant that he’d survive. All day long this particular emotion had been driving her forward, keeping her focused. Love pushed her where no other motivator had existed. And she’d do it again and again.

    Taking place before Link and Zelda explore beneath Hyrule Castle, and trigger the events of TotK. It has been several years in between the events of Breath of the Wild and Tears of the Kingdom. During this time, Princess Zelda reminisces on how she met Link, and how her feelings begin to develop for him slowly but strongly, until they are no longer able to be ignored.
