Summary
'Blood whirled, thumping through weak eyelids, light and white and red, swimming into focus, and Link coughed weakly. The face above him floated, blurry and strange, wreathed in sunshine and water droplets, fiercely set in shadowed crimson and silver. Sharp teeth and sharper eyes.'
Link wants nothing to do with Calamity Ganon until a strange creature finds him on the riverbank, and an unlikely relationship is formed. When the rest of Link's life feels like he's drowning, this Red River Ghost is a break for air.

The one I get my headcanon about Sidon's signature move from - HUG! I had forgotten where that was from. Totally absorbed as lore.

Summary
Link shouldn't allow this. Shouldn't indulge himself when he knows that Sidon is far, far from his reach. He shouldn't allow this because the avatar might only be doing this because Link wants it to, and how will he ever explain something like that to Sidon? He shouldn't be doing this because Sidon might find out somehow, because the king might already know, because this might taint their precious friendship.
He shouldn't because a taste of intimacy like this is only going to make Link want the real thing even more.
Or
Sidon's avatar starts behaving strangely, teasing Link with affectionate touches and gestures that the real Sidon would never allow; a torment so sweet, Link simultaneously wants it to end and never stop. At the same time, Sidon is plagued with strange dreams of his dearest friend. Dreams where he can't hold back desires he didn't even know he had.

ANGST and FLUFF!
Which is to say, well-earned happy ending, no Yona bashing, everyone except Muzu is delighted. Too bad for Muzu.

I... really like how this one works. That the first one to get along with Harry is, of all people, Lucius!
That once Harry does a certain thing, all three of them are like "Oh, you're family now," (although Draco does clarify that he wants to be family specifically in the way that his parents are family to each other).
I enjoyed also the puzzle of it (not that it's a puzzle for the readers to solve, like an Agatha Christie, but the way they chip away at it) and the SUPPORT Harry is getting.
I liked finding out about why Emptyweed is the way he is (and Rodgers' assertion that his parents were bad humans). I liked finding out about Pontiff, and I thought it was cool how all the chapter titles were quotes from her; she has a large influence on Harry's adult life, like Dumbledore with the attitude of Luna, so logically she gets to set the tone.
Harry's various Evil Exes (evil in Draco's POV, anyway) were fun additions to the story.
And I very much enjoyed the way Draco went from "he's fit and convenient, I should make a pass" to "I care deeply about you" and took Harry's wants and needs on board, changing his behaviors as needed.
Beautifully done.

Bookmarker's Notes
Malfoy buys Grimmauld and sets up a museum, seven years later it's robbed and Auror Potter is on the case.
The snark and banter in this are fantastic, and the hilarity levels are nearly Pratchett-worthy. SERIOUSLY. Despite length, attempted to Read To Husband in car trip. He also laughed a lot.
