    Summary

    Sarah
    Does anyone have the number for Shane's girl from Boston? I feel bad that they've been seeing each other for this long and we've never added her here.

    Jackie
    Oh good point! Let me ask Hayden.

    Jackie has added Lily to the conversation

    Lily
    what
    what is this

    Or: Ilya Rozanov is, apparently, one of the girls.

    Summary

    “Link! You’re hurt!”

    “I’m fine, Sid—”

    “In the mouth of a demon dragon? Absolutely not, you were nearly crunched!” Sidon whirls around. “Quickly! Does somebody have a healing elixir for His Majesty?”

    His Majesty.

    His Majesty.

    And that’s when Zelda realizes—it’s not her Sidon and the Royal Guard are addressing.

    It’s Link.

    ___

    Six months after the Upheaval, a weakened and dismayed Link appears in Zora's Domain.

    With no sign of Zelda, Impa follows the wish of Hyrule's previous sovereign, and names him king.

    Summary

    They had talked about this—about keeping up appearances of a purely professional relationship until Zelda is coronated and they could safely announce their courtship, but Link already finds himself missing her. Just two days and they would be back in Hateno, where they revelled in near-anonymity and could truly be alone, but it would be the longest they’d gone without sharing a bed in weeks.

    (or, Link attempts to resist Zelda's feminine wiles, fails miserably)

    Summary

    She has no throne. Girls without thrones should not have knights, but hers won’t go. Princess Zelda – the girl who killed Calamity – would love to fade into legend, but Link’s bought a house, he’s fighting off monsters, and he’s selling giant horses to strangely familiar Gerudo men. She'll never have any peace now.

    Summary

    “I haven’t…” she starts, watches his blue eyes narrowed in concern and it’s distracting, everything’s distracting. “I haven’t had a body in a hundred years,” Zelda manages, and shrugs one shoulder, as if to say what can you do? “I was Hylia, mostly, and a little bit me, but I wasn’t a person. I was the sun and the wind and the water and the dirt and I was in a prison and I was the prison. I feel like I’m blindfolded, now, without that sense of the world, but also everything is so bright and loud and close and I hardly know how I’m managing to speak to you when my skin is feeling wind for the first time in a century. It’s…” she trails off, her words failing her, which is infuriating because she’s a scholar, she’s good at words. “It’s a lot,” she finishes awkwardly, for lack of anything better to say.

    Or: Learning to be a person again, after the end.
