I just finished Ocarina of Time on the 3ds!! My very first completed Zelda, and what a blast it was!
I started to think this series might be for me after all when I started replaying my childhood gam ALTTP (which is probably next to be finished, along with minish cap!)
but it was this game that truly cemented my new love for this series, a series that, for the longest time, I thought wasn't for me. What's next? Will I fall in love with Metroid too? That will something to look forward to, eventually!
For now, I just can't wait to play more Zelda! Along with the previously mentioned titles, I have A Link Between Worlds still waiting, and I'm gonna hunt for a copy of Majora's Mask on the 3ds. I would also love to play the switch titles! Maybe for my birthday I could grab one?

Kinda angst idea??? 0.0
The release date of both Legend's and Time's first game are both on the same day, 21st Nov. Usually this fandom says that their birthdays are on the day their first game released.
The hero of Legend's birthday was on the same day as the hero of Time's because once the hero died, he needed a replacement. Legend is meant to be Time but without the faliure, and because he is meant to be like time, a replacement a failsafe, whatever you want to call it, his birthday also is on the same day
You could also add that Legend was 9 in ALTTP because the hero of Time was 9 when he first started
Because once the hero of Time failed, he had to be replaced by a piece crafted to be him but without his downsides
I just had the realisation that their birthdays were on the same day and my thoughts spiralled.
Not a big fan of cursing the goddesses all the time, especially since these two don't know who Hylia is but this could be used for something else. Blame the curse, or destiny, or duty; because i feel like that is what these two would really have a thing against

My masterlist - fics and lore
Zelink! Lots of BotW, some ALTTP, and a smattering of other Zelda. Some NSFW with warnings. Truly NSFW skippable in long fics.
I've officially written a lot. Mini-fics at top, then my beloved longfic, then ongoing things, one-shots, and lore.
Mini-Fic Collections:
(Genres vary, some one-shots and some in larger AUs, rated G to E with clear labels).
3-Sentence Fic Collection I - on Tumblr
3-Sentence Fic Collection II - on Tumblr
3-Sentence Fic Collection III - on Tumblr - on Ao3
Zelink Week 2023 3-Sentence Fic Collection - on Tumblr - on Ao3
Linktober 2023 shortfic collection - on Tumblr, each has ao3 links
Fics in Adventure Log+ AU:
Suggested reading order for this AU here.
Link's Thought Brambles - on Tumblr - on AO3 - (Zelink, Rom-Com, Drama, Action - complete work, 56 chapters, 203,000 words, rated M). - Link accidentally activates the Sheikah Slate's Adventure Log pre-Calamity, before its software has been updated by the Great Plateau Tower. This software version produces a more... er... complete log.
Adventure Log+ - on Tumblr - on AO3 - (Sequel to Link's Thought Brambles, Zelink, Rom-Com, Drama, Action - work in progress, 14/? chapters, rated M). - When Link activated the Slate's beta Adventure Log, it changed everything. Now, Link and Zelda aim to bolster Hyrule beneath the looming threat of the Calamity, armed with more knowledge but hunted with renewed, fanatical fervor, for news of the Princess' abilities has spread.
Zelink Week 2022 Entries - Tumblr - (Ao3 links on each fic) - (Zelink, Romance, Comedy, Drama, including some poetry - 7 fics rated T to E with appropriate warnings). - Prequels to Link's Thought Brambles and short stories concurrent with it and Adventure Log+.
Teaser Fics for ZeldaGoesToo! ALTTP AU:
These will eventually be part of one much larger Link to the Past series, but for the moment they stand alone.
Flourish - on Tumblr - on AO3 - (Zelink, Drama, Romance, ~3500 words, rated M) - "Zelda’s voice so often struck Link in tinkling taps: wind chimes—delicate and harmonious. Unyielding."
Twilight - on Tumblr - on AO3 - (Zelink, Action, Dark Fantasy, Dread, ~2250 words, rated M) - Link and Zelda hurtle to the top of the Pyramid of Power, sent by Agahnim with his dying breath. They hurtle directly into battle in a dark reflection of their own world.
Dissonance - on Tumblr (as 2 parts: Crow and Dissonance) - on AO3 - (Zelink, Dark Fantasy, Drama, 3500 words, rated T) - Link and Zelda must survive harsh conditions and start to understand the Dark World.
Inevitable - on Tumblr - on AO3 - (Zelink, Dark Fantasy, Erotica, 3700 words, rated E) - Link and Zelda pursue their desires in the Sacred Realm.
Other Ongoing Fics:
Adventure Log- - on Tumblr - (Zelink, Rom-Com, Drama, Action, written partially as captions to screenshots - work in progress 21/?, rated T). - Link wakes up in the Shrine of Resurrection. The Slate receives his thoughts but doesn't log them verbatim. Lucky us, we get to listen in. (Not a sequel - this is canon-compliant, not an AU, just Link with the same backstory as Adventure Log+).
Adventures in Invertebrates - on Tumblr - on Ao3 - (Zelink, Hateno Homestead, ecology!, rom-com, rated T) - Link and Zelda are building a life for themselves in Hateno post-Calamity. One day, Link finds some very busy slugs and brings them home - Zelda educates him, and Link realizes invertebrates are cool.
Les Misérables de la Nature - on Tumblr - A Les Mis + Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild parody. I hope to replace the lyrics in every song in Les Mis with words sung by characters from BotW.
One-Shots:
The Seeds of Love, Well Worn - on Tumblr - on AO3 - (Romance, Humor, Hurt/Comfort, TotK Zelink, post-game, Canon-Compliant - 9400 words, rated T) - Link wants to give Zelda an extraordinary birthday present. She thinks he might be nuts.
Black Flowers Blossom - on Tumblr - on AO3 - (Drama, Romance, BotW Zelink, pre-Calamity, Canon-Compliant - 13,300 words, rated E - very nsfw) - A cruel prince is no match for love, even and especially in darkness.
Crow's Feet - on Tumblr - on AO3 - (Drama, Romance, TP Zelink, post-game, Canon-Compliant - 5100 words, rated T) - Zelda tries to move on after the events of Twilight Princess. She can't.
What Once Rang Hollow - on Tumblr - on AO3 - (Drama, Hurt/Comfort, BotW Zelink, Post-Calamity, Canon-Compliant - 9,000 words, rated T) - The great Akkala Citadel holds memories Zelda fears Link is not ready for.
The Long Climb Toward Summer - on Tumblr - on AO3 - (Drama, Hurt/Comfort, some fluff/humor, BotW Pre-Calamity, 7500 words, rated T) - An unusual winter solstice celebration prompts Zelda to take a close look at her knight—and her people.
The King's Royal Fry Cook - on Tumblr - on AO3 - (Inspired by this art by @chimpukampu, Short One-Shot, Humor - 1,409 words, rated T). - Sometimes, one cannot help but smile. One of those times is when eating the King's Fried Cucco. If you're a madman, that is...

Happy Birthday to two great games
Especially since they share my own, so I got wonderful games released on my b-day twice. Not to mention the ones that were released just a few days before.
Ocarina of Time and A Link to the Past are pretty much my favorite Zelda games. I played both without the benefit of extensive walkthroughs and stuff on the internet and the challenge of having to figure everything out was really good for that time in my life (I HAD time back then).
ALTTP was my first true Zelda game, I only sort of dabbled with the original two because I never owned them, and basically I've been obsessed with Zelda ever since the little pink haired dude got woken up by Zelda's voice in his head, on a stormy night in Hyrule. I finished it so many times, and I'm working on a novelization! I know, I know, SUPER original idea. But Holy Crap Two Cakes right?
Ocarina of Time is also one of my favorites because it expanded the universe and the lore so much, and it was just such an awesome game to play. The story, the gameplay, the exploration, the ability to muck about with nothing to stop you except Navi's constant pleas to get back on track... and I didn't even mind the Water Temple that much. Ironically, the one that kind of stops me when I play through again is the Shadow Temple, I just plain don't like it.
ANYWAY!
I have no art. Here are some stories instead:
For Ocarina of Time:
For A Link to the Past:
And I'll just paste this here too... it's part of Moving On, but this scene is just the Hero of Legends making his wish.
Moving On, extract from Chapter 1: A Link to the Past
Link clutched the Triforce to his chest, eyes closed tightly.
He didn't know what to wish for: Ganon had done too much harm, and Link suspected some of it couldn't be fixed, even by the Triforce: his uncle was dead, and so was the King; the maidens' souls had been freed, but their lives remained lost, even the Princess's.
What was there left to wish for? Ganon had already taken everything. Even the mystical Golden Realm was gone, the reflection of Hyrule's hopes and dreams turned into a nightmare by the demon.
There were many things Link wanted and could have wished for, but they were all so selfish he couldn't bring himself to do it. He wanted his uncle back, he wanted the maidens back. He wanted all the guards Aghanim had made him kill to be alive and themselves again, and to forgive him. Above all, he wanted the Princess back. He wanted her to look at him like that again, like she had when he had saved her, as if he was the sun itself. [...] He'd happily settle for her just to be alive again, even if she never again so much as stood in his presence.
If he were to wish for any one of those things, however, wouldn't it mean giving up on the others and on everything else Ganon had soiled or destroyed? He couldn't pick one wrong to right, he wanted it all: he wanted ALL the harm Ganon had done to be undone; he wanted everything back just like it was before Ganon had gotten his paws on the Triforce.
As soon as the thought formed in Link's mind and before he even realized he had effectively made his wish or dared to hope such an all encompassing wish could be valid, the Triforce started shining, so brightly as to hurt Link's eyes right through his closed eyelids. It shone brighter and brighter, and Link had to fight back the urge to let go of it to cover his eyes with his hands. He turned his head sideway as far back as it could go instead, but it didn't help: the glow of the Triforce was filling the whole room.
Then, as suddenly as it had started, the glow was gone. Link opened his eyes warily, afraid the Triforce may start shining again. It was still in his arms, but it was back to normal and thankfully stayed that way. Link looked around instinctively for any visible effect from his wish, and gasped: through the door to the room where they had fought, Ganon was scrambling up, whole and seemingly unhurt. Link's eyes went from the Demon to the Triforce and widened.
The Triforce had granted his wish, all right: everything was back, just like before Ganon had claimed the Goddesses' artefact… including Ganon.
Link's eyes went back to the pig and met the beast's own. He stuffed the Triforce into his tunic and took out his bow and arrow, expecting Ganon to charge at him. The Demon did no such thing, however; he hissed, and before Link had even had a chance to shoot a single arrow at him, he vanished with a puff of smoke.
Link's breathing accelerated. Just like that, Ganon had escaped and it was anyone's guess where he'd resurface and what he'd do - and whatever it was, Link felt it would be his fault. He clenched his teeth, re-sheathed his sword and took out the mirror that had the power to bring him back to the Real World; the first thing to do was to let the King know Ganon was loose. After that, assuming he didn't get thrown in the dungeon, Link would happily do whatever was asked of him to fix things.
As Link looked into the mirror, the room around him faded and was replaced by the castle's inner court and the sound of deafening cheers.
Link had never felt LESS deserving of cheers. He ignored them and looked around frantically, looking for the Princess; he found her standing next to her father, beaming at him. Link's heart skipped and for one glorious second, he was happier than he would ever have thought possible.
Then, reality came crashing back.
"Your Majesties," he said, addressing both of them, "he…"
"Come inside," the King cut him off, setting off towards the entrance to the throne room. "Close the door behind you," he added without turning around.
Zelda and Link followed him.
"He doesn't want a panic on his hands," Zelda explained in a whisper as they walked, "and since you obviously have bad news…"
Link nodded without meeting her eyes.
Zelda closed the door behind them once they were inside, shooing the few who had followed away with an apologetic smile.
"Firstly," the King said as he sat on his throne, "Link, I must express my gratitude, and I hope to do so properly once you have told me your news and we have dealt with it. You need to know that nothing you might tell us will change the fact you have single-handedly saved not only my daughter and myself, but the whole of Hyrule."
"He's back," Link blurted out, barely hearing him. "Ganon. And he ran off… I messed up, I really messed up. I'm so sorry… I didn't realize, I was just thinking, and the Triforce did it…"
He collapsed to his knees, shaking. He could still hear the cheering outside and it was making him feel worse. Here was everyone, so happy that all was well…
"Young man, are you saying Ganon is still alive?" the King asked.
Link nodded without raising his eyes. He felt a hand on his shoulder and the next moment, Princess Zelda's face was inches away from his own, looking serious but thankfully not angry. His heart automatically started hammering in his chest.
"Is he in the Dark World?" the Princess asked.
Link nodded again.
"Light World," he corrected. "I think. I didn't look outside, but…"
"What about the Triforce?" she interrupted him.
"I got it," Link said, pulling it out of his tunic. "But Ganon ran away, he could be…"
Link didn't finish his sentence, having suddenly lost his train of thoughts: the Princess was smiling at him. He swallowed and made a valiant – if doomed - effort at reassembling his thoughts. Zelda got up from her crouch and pulled him along so that they were both standing again.
"The only place Ganon can possibly be is the Light World," Zelda said gently, still smiling. "Remember, even with his power increased by the Triforce, he could not escape from there – that is why he needed the maidens: he wanted to use them to break the seals and thus escape his prison. Now that he has lost the maidens and that the seals are back to the level they were before Aghanim captured them, Ganon will not be able to escape the Light World, at least for a while."
Link sighed in relief and nodded to signify he understood.

Here’s the summaries of the Zelda’s mothers lives
Wren (SkSw Zelda’s mother)- Wren was the only child of her parents, a seamstress and a craftsman.
She became a midwife at the age of 19 and at 21 started courting the 23 year old history instructor, Gaepoora. They were married at 22 and 24, and she was pregnant with their first child less than a year later. Wren had a long and difficult delivery but thankfully both mother and daughter were healthy.
She was pregnant another 2 times, and she lost the baby both times, the first at 3 months and the 2nd at 7 months. She died at age 32 from infection following her second pregnancy loss.
Minerva (fs/Mc Zelda’s mother)- Minerva was the only surviving of her parents (king Gustaf and Queen Consort Naya) children. As the heir to the throne she was highly educated and prepared to take over, at the age of 17 she fell in love with a knight named Daltus and begged her parents to agree to their marriage. They agreed and she and Daltus walked down the aisle at the age of 19 and 22. It took the pair 8 years for Minerva to become pregnant, nearing their 9th anniversary Minerva gave birth to a healthy daughter she named Zelda.
Everyone was so busy celebrating the birth that they didn’t realize the queen had fallen Ill with childbed fever, she survived and was left infertile as a result. Minerva contracted an unknown illness and died a few months later at the age of 33, her husband was suspected but there was never any proof that the official statement (that she had died of a fast growing tumor) was wrong or forged.
Dalia (OoT Zelda’s mother)- Dalia was the youngest of her parents 9 children, her parents were both nobles. When she was 16 she was arranged to marry the then 18 year old crown prince, the wedding happened 2 years later, just a few days after her 18th birthday. She and her husband didn’t love each other, but they were cordial for the sake of their daughter Zelda, who had been born 1 ½ years into their marriage. Dalia died when Zelda was 9 and she was 28 after she was poisoned by her husband's lover, who intended for it to free up space for her to take Dalias place, instead she was executed for Dalias assassination.
Yvota (albw/alttp Zelda’s mother)- Yvota was a foreign princess who was married to the hylian king when she was 22 and he was 25, despite them having been arranged to marry each other they were kind and pleasant with each other, 4 years into her marriage she had a daughter named Zelda, she died a few minutes after her daughters birth at the age of 26.
Eleta (AoL zeldas mother) - Eleta was the crown princess of Catolia who at the age of 22, was married to the 34 year old hylian king, who had been widowed and had no children. Her first child was a son named Daphnes, her second child was a daughter named Zelda, and her third and youngest child was another son named Altvir. After her son took power and cursed her daughter she and her youngest son fled back to her homeland, where they lived in exile for the remaining 45 years of her life.
Zelda XV (LoZ 1 Zelda’s mother)- Zelda XV was born to a declining empire, her mother had been her fathers 4th wife and the only one he had children with, her father died when she was a few weeks old and her mother when she was only 12.
At 15 she was forced into a marriage with a nobleman. She had single child with him, a daughter born when she was 17, she was widowed at 18, and died protecting her daughter when gannons minions attacked the castle when she was 29, and her daughter was 11. Her daughter was captured and spent the next 7 years of her life in captivity.
Queen Regent Diameta (TP Zelda’s mother)-
Diameta became queen regent after her fathers death when she was 21, she was a highly educated and effective monarch. At the age of 26 she declared to her council that she would marry her love, a common born knight, or not marry at all. The council refused to recognize any marriage between them and so she kept to her promise, never marrying or even humoring the suitors picked by her council. At the age of 42 she gave birth to an illegitimate daughter with her knight love, she named the daughter Zelda to cement her legitimacy. The council finally relented and declared her daughter as the legitimate princess and heir.
Diameta passed away in her sleep at the age of 62, leaving her 20 year old daughter as the queen to be.
Drusilla (tetras mother)- Drusilla was born on a stop on a remote island to traders, when she was 7 she was kidnapped by pirates and held for ransom, her parents never paid. The pirates felt kinda bad for her and so just kept her around, by the age of 12 she had started pickpocketing at stops, by 14 she accompanied them on missions, by 25 she was their captain. At the age of 29 she had a child with a man on an island they had stopped at for a few nights, she named her daughter tetra. Drusilla died after she fell overboard and drowned during a storm at the age of 33.
Mariea (botw Zelda’s mother)- Mariea was the oldest daughter of a noble family from akala, at the age of 21 she was arranged to marry the 35 year old and recently widowed king rhoam. He didn’t love her and he made it obvious, so she didn’t try to make him love her because she knew without a child or the king's love her position was very fragile, especially since the people didn’t like her very much either. At the age of 25 she gave birth to her daughter, Zelda. She was offered an annulment and pension by her husband but refused, she now was the heir and enough support from the people that divorcing her was impossible, and he knew it.
At the age of 31 she died in the birth of her second child, a son who also died with her.
Interesting, I like the variety of it!

Top 5 Zelda games
This is a real challenge. Because I adore the Zelda franchise, it's one of my favorite gaming franchises of all time. Hopefully I won't get flames!
A Link Between Worlds ~ Although I've already talked about this game in a previous ask, this may still be my favorite Zelda game to date, even though I haven't touched my 3DS in sometime. I adore the story, artstyle, and gimmick. It's set in the same Hyrule as ALttP with similar dungeons. The characters are remarkable. Truly a gem! Maybe it will be dethroned one day. One of my gripes with the game is not earning an important item in dungeons.
Tears of the Kingdom ~ Over 140 hours in, and I still haven't beaten it. I've been savoring every moment I play. I get easily distracted by places, enemies, characters. The caves are awesome. I haven't built a mecha yet (doubt I ever will), but simple Zonai tech will have to do for now!
Link's Awakening ~ Nostalgia time! Fun fact, this was my first ever Zelda game that I ever owned. While my brother played OoT on the N64, I bought myself a Game Boy Color for my birthday one year with Pokemon Yellow: Special Pikachu Edition and Link's Awakening DX. Fell in love with LA DX instantly. I managed to conquer two full dungeons on my own before finally putting it down and leaving it to rot. And then of course I finally beat it years and years later when Link's Awakening HD remake came out for Switch! I really hope we get Oracle games in the future to follow-up. (only played both once in my life) It's such a sweet little game!
A Link to the Past ~ Hopefully I'm not cheating, but... I first played ALttP on the GBA. I ADORED it, despite not getting very far. (I hated how they reused Link's cries from OoT/MM...) I've tried it a couple of times on Switch Online, but gave up twice. Third time's the charm! I restarted it again earlier this year before TotK came out. I've gotten... maybe at least five to six dungeons down, tops? The manga adaptation is probably my favorite out of any of the Zelda stories. I love the Link and Zelda of this universe. They're terribly sweet together.
Ocarina of Time ~ Would you believe that once upon a time that Majora's Mask was my favorite game in the series? I love it, but the three-day cycle really takes a toll on me. I finally gave up on the Water Temple in the 3DS version. I don't even know if my brother beat it back in the day. But, we did beat OoT together. I think it's purely out of nostalgia for this game. I hope it gets delisted when/if I play WW HD/TP HD in the future.
I have played Minish Cap, BotW (around 200 hours) both Oracle games (once in my life), TLoZ, Zelda II, and Skyward Sword HD.
What I haven't played are Wind Waker, its sequels, Twilight Princess... I would love love LOOOVE to play those games if they come to Switch/Switch's successor. They both look like they have their own charms, characters, stories and love for adventure!
Thank you for being so patient with this ask, JJ. I appreciate it my friend!!!

For you, how old was Legend when he did his first aventures (ALTTP)? He was enough young for that his uncle told him to stay inside in his bed (but enough old for that this same man give him a shield and a sword and ask him to save the princess). Imagine if he was below 10. Ganon, ready to fight the hero (he won over the previous hero after all and it was a 17 years old) and he faces a kid who is even not 10, and who holds a sword almost as bigger than him XD (and he lost against this kiddo)
I like to differ between eight and eleven. I think considering his age, his first adventure probably took him a while to complete, so he technically had a birthday midway through his adventure.
I do agree though. The idea that not only does Ganon come face to face with this tiny child with a sword he can barely hold, but this kid beats him repeatedly. Pretty sure Aganim (Ganon's disguise) actually says "you again?" when Legend shows up to fight him after one of the initial battles in the game. Meaning that not only did he get beat, he was also starting to get annoyed with it.
I feel like at this point, if Ganon saw Legend again, he might just groan at the idea of dealing with him again. And probably losing. Legend's three for three after all. Or more if you count each individual match as it's own win :)
Also, one last thing. The master sword was totally bigger than Legend when he started. I don't make the rules, it just was. This carries over to LU in that he can wield a claymore with minimal difficulty, because the Master Sword may as well have been one when he was a kid.
