The Things He Wanted to Say

Summary:

Though overall, Link preferred listening to others instead of speaking himself, there were times where things needed to be said. During those times, however, he would have to decide whether to answer as the teenage boy he was, or the hero he was supposed to be.

Notes:

(See the end of the work for notes.)

Chapter 1: To His Best Friend on a Special Morning

Summary:

"And look at these clothes! I made this wrap myself, and we get to use it in today's ceremony! Between the harp and this outfit, I'm going to make a great goddess today! I got you up this morning because I wanted you to be the first one to see me like this, Link! So, how do I look?"

Chapter Text

Hah. Of course she’d wake him for something as silly as this, not that it bothered him. It was clear how much she cared for him, not only by making sure he didn’t sleep in, but also by wanting him of all people to see her first. The way her dress flowed as she twirled, the way her golden locks settled to frame her face as she faced him, the way her bright eyes and contagious smile could warm his heart enough to dispel even his seemingly ever-constant drowsiness-- what had he ever done to deserve such an amazing best friend?

… Uh… wait. She asked him something right? .. Oh! How does she look, how does she look…

He could tease her as revenge for the wake up call from her loftwing instead of herself... “Nice… Costume,” he could joke. “ But uh, doesn’t really look anything like this huge statue of the goddess you’re supposed to be playing. Did I miss another memo?”

… Nah. That’s way too rude. Especially when she’s so excited to see what he thinks. He could never risk upsetting her on a day like today. Instead, he returns her grin with a soft smile of his own.

“You look great, Zel!”
