In my replay of Skyward Sword, I am reminded of the existence of rupoors. And that's a little bit sad. : (
Small shower thought, do you think Dark Link would have a bag of rupoors on him? What if it's regular dark-world currency? (I know it's not but it's a thought.)

"Just occurred to me that I may have overpromised on the 'get Futaba a full set of Hyrulean Rupees' because there's a lot of those damn things and I don't know how high they go.
Also because 'rupoors' are non-euclidean or something because you pick them up and they.... make you have less money. You have physically more rupees than you started with, but less money than before you picked it up. What even is a rupoor? An SCP?"

how do rupees in zelda work ,? is it like real life money where you can have multiple different kinds of rupees in ur pockets or do they like merge in ur pocket and when you go to pay for your Hyrule Mcdouble in Hyrule Mcdonalds you owe the cashier 3 rupees but all you have is a golden rupee and the cashier goes sorry we cant break any rupees over red and you wanna cry cause everyone in line is looking at you and all you wanted was a burger and now you’re being pressured with the weight of expectations
#would you be able to get like mugged with rupoors#like you go outside and some rich asshole is waiting for you and he shoves 904 rupoors into your pocket and leaves#what would you do in that situation

You picked up a Rupoor! That means you’ve lost 10 Rupees. And that’s a little bit sad.

mutuals tell me what you would want to see in a Twilight Princess sequel. here are some of mine off the top of the dome.
🐺 bring Wolf Link back and give Link even more animal forms. introduction of Cat Link is obvious but may I also suggest Ostrich Link
🐺 bring back the Rupoor from Skyward Sword, that shit was funny
🐺 Malo becomes the hypercapitalist boy-emperor of his own microkingdom. the Rupoor is usuable only here and all his citizens are at least 10000R in debt. he has one of the macguffins you need and it's a whole thing to get him to give it to you. breaking up the Cult of Malo-Mart is not even considered as an option by the game's narrative, Link's got bigger shit to worry about
🐺 Zant is back and he's queercoded so heavily that the resulting explosion of online simping, kinning and tumblr discourse causes him to become the most popular character in the game. you finally play the game for yourself and discover he gets killed off at the end of the second act and the story never mentions him again
🐺 a MILF frequency level equal to or greater than the original Twilight Princess
🐺 expanded fishing
🐺 repressed trauma motif underlying the entire game. six-hour video essays are posted detailing the game's impressive nuance
🐺 Ooccoo Jr. is back and he's now a full-sized humanoid clown-bird with a costume so visually busy that you almost don't notice the tortured human face motifs and obscenely large codpiece. he's an essential NPC who features in more cutscenes than Midna and Zelda combined
🐺 bring back the double hookshot
#twilight princess#non-mutuals can also chime in but only if you have something fun to say#anyway i forget where i was going with this. i got lost in my imagined world

Wait if Vaati is in the Four Sword does that mean I can add him to the system. For giggles.
You’ve already seen “Four is a system and they have to cope with Shadow reappearing while on a quest with the LU Chain”, what about their nemesis being still alive and kicking. Maybe throw in a full dissociative barrier for fun.
Vaati is smart enough to get the lay of the land before pulling anything, I think, considering his previous escape attempts. So that leaves us with the hilarious possibility of Vaati attempting to pretend to be Four despite only having socialized with him in epic boss battles at the end of a sword. Also, while Vaati is good with a blade, I think at minimum his natural inclination is to be a spellsword. Four may not have exercised his hypothetical magic “muscles” much, but Vaati still knows the ins and outs of magic on principle, so. I’m imagining him summoning crystal walls and such on reflex and the Chain just gawking.
Also Vaati running a scam because money is fake. I think the Minish can just spawn rupees sometimes, if they have the excess magic for it. I have an intense worldbuilding breakdown of what rupees are and how they even work, magically speaking, and I think it would be hilarious if Vaati just keeps… upcycling rupees because he’s bored. Or leaving rupoors around to generate some passive income by stealing from unlucky fools. The man has to commit some small crimes or he’s going to go insane being “good”.
We’re all used to the idea of Dark approaching Four as the possible weak Link tempted by darkness (thanks Vio). I think it would be funny if Four expects that, even has some contingency plans for that, and Dark isn’t even talking to him in his little face-heel turn monologue. He’s talking to Vaati, because he makes it his business to observe these things. But Vaati thinks Dark’s a light-damned amateur and a charlatan and most importantly far, far beneath him. He tried being a minion and didn’t like it very much.
I want Dark to get a look at why Vaati was the unopposed terror of Hyrule until Ganon’s ascension.

One word prompt: licked
This one is a fun one--it reminded me of a thing I used to do as a kid--lick my hand and hold it up to ward off my siblings.
(1301 words)
******
"Let go of the rupee," Legend urged. "You can't get your hand out of the hole unless you let go of the rupee. Your fist is too big."
"NO!" Wind hissed, his hand trapped in a hole in the wall, his fist wrapped around a glowing golden rupee. "My rupee!" His eyes were red and crazed and his entire arm was tensed and stiff as if electrified. It didn't take a genius to tell that the rupee-in-the-hole was clearly cursed and intended to be a trap, one that the strapped-for-cash little pirate fell for.
<!-- more -->
"If you let go for just a second, I can use my whip to get it out of the hole for you," Sky pleaded.
"And take it for yourself? I don't think so!" Wind lashed out with his free hand, fingers bared like claws when Sky got too close for his liking. "This is my money. I found it first! Its all mine!"
"Don't touch him and don't let him touch you," Four warned.
"What can we do?" Twilight asked. "We can't reason with him in this state."
"You shouldn't have let him open that cursed chest full of rupoors earlier," Warriors nudged Legend. "Maybe he wouldn't have fallen for the trap if he still had any money."
"I warned him not to!" Legend spluttered. "Maybe you should have been quicker to stop him before he reached his hand into a random hole!"
"Wiiind!" Hyrule sang holding up a silver rupee just out of his reach. "Do you want more rupees?"
"Careful," Time put a hand on Hyrule's arm.
Wind surged forward as much as he could with his arm still trapped in the wall. Hyrule leapt back and dangling the rupee just out of reach.
"Give it to me! I want it now!" Wind made grabby hands and strained to reach the silver rupee. "More rupees!"
"Let go of the other rupee and you can have this rupee," Hyrule said.
"NO! I want both rupees! Gimme!"
"Wind! Let go! You're going to break your arm!" Twilight cried. "Hyrule! Give it to him so he doesn't hurt himself!"
"Yes! Give it to me!" Wind growled.
Hyrule panicked and flung it at Wind who caught it faster than the eye could follow with his free hand. He laughed maniacally and dropped the rupee in his pocket.
“Great that didn’t work. Now what do we do?” Warriors sighed.
“You look rich! Give me all your rupees!” Wind demanded of Warriors. “They belong to me!”
At the back of the group there was a sound of lips smacking and Twilight turned to find Wild idly licking off each of his fingers.
“Eww! Cub! What are you eating?” Twilight grabbed Wild’s hand. His hand and his mouth were covered in green gelatinous substance. “Ugh! Spit that out! How could you be eating at a time like this?! What even is that nasty—”
“Hmph. No’ bad.” Wild said then swallowed. “Tastes like cuckoo.”
“What even is this?” Twilight wiped some of the green gunk off his hand and on his pants. Wild shrugged.
“Dunno. I bought some off a guy in Wind’s Hyrule. He called it a jellyfish, said it was something you didn’t want to eat unless you were in a desperate situation—and we’ve been stuck in this dungeon for three hours and I’m pretty desperately hungry.”
“Seriously?”
“Do you have any more?” Time asked.
“Yeah! You want some?” Wild held up another green glob with long thin tentacles hanging down. Time made a face and accepted the disgusting offering.
“Old Man, what are you—” Twilight trailed off.
“Ahhh—” Time inhaled sharply. “Ahhh—!”
“You good, old man?” Four asked, turning away from Wind.
“AAAAHHH CHOOO!” Time sneezed mightily with such volume that the sound echoed down the stony corridor. Everyone flinched and jumped, even Wind, who had a fistful of Warriors’ scarf.
Time looked down at his hands where the crushed green remains of the jellyfish dripped from his hands.
“Augh!” Sky gagged and covered his eyes, trying not to heave.
“That’s disgusting!” Legend stepped away from their elder
“Did that just seriously come out of you?!” Four gasped.
“What the hell? Do you have the plague??” Warriors jumped back, yanking his scarf from a startled wide-eyed Wind’s grasp.
Time sniffed the green goop in his hands.
“Hmm.”
Time touched his tongue the green goop. He made a show of taking a long slow lick the length of his right hand.
“No! No! Don’t do that!” Sky squealed and waved his hands. “Ahhh!”
“OHH! That’s just gross!” Warriors looked away and covered his mouth with a gag.
“Is this really happening?” Four asked, unable to tear his eyes away from the spectacle.
Hyrule watched simultaneously appalled and perplexed and Wind stared in horrified silence.
“Mm. Salty,” Time said licking his lips.
In the back of the group, Wild stifled a laugh and Twilight covered his mouth with his hand his eyes wide with glee.
Time cocked his head at Wind.
“Are you stuck, young friend?” Time asked. He casually approached Wind, the others jumping out of his way.
Wind didn’t answer but bared his teeth.
“Let me help you!” Time reached out a green slimy hand toward Wind’s stuck arm. Wind squirmed and pulled away from Time.
“Don’t touch me!” Wind scowled. “You smell poor.” Wind strained to lean away from Time.
“It’ll just take a moment to get you unstuck!” Time’s hand stopped just short of grasping Wind’s arm. “Oh! There’s something on your face!” He reached for Wind’s face with his green gloopy hand.
Wind screeched and jerked backward, arm suddenly free of the trap. He fell onto his behind then scrabbled away on all fours hissing at Time, who watched him with cool amusement. Wind’s face went blank for a moment, then he blinked confused up at all the other staring heroes.
“What’s going on?” He said, then winced and curled around his arm. “Ow.”
“Here, let me see,” Legend pushed past the agape Hyrule and knelt by Wind.
Time held up his hands for the others to see.
“This is jellyfish,” he said. “It’s not snot.”
“Hehehe I get it. It’s-not snot.” Wild snorted.
“And you’re right. It does taste like cuckoo.”
“I can’t believe it. You really got me, Old Man!” Warriors laughed.
“Wow. I’m so glad that’s not real.” Four shivered.
“Wahaha that’s so funny!” Hyrule burst out in laughter. “I didn’t know you had it in you!”
“I know you said that it’s not real, but… I think I’m going to throw up anyways!” Sky pushed past Wild and Twilight and threw up on the ground at the edge of the corridor.
“Hey Wind, how’re you feeling?” Twilight called edging away from Sky.
“He’ll be fine,” Legend said helping Wind stand up. “His arm isn’t broken and there’s no residual damage from the curse.”
“It’s just bruised and sore,” Wind said, inspecting the red marks on his skin where it had rubbed on the rim of the hole.
“I hope you learned your lesson,” Legend crossed his arms.
“I bet you won’t go sticking your hand into any more holes, will you?” Warriors said.
“Why wouldn’t I?” Wind said patting his pocket. “I’m a hundred rupees richer!”
“Wait! No! That’s mine! Give it back!” Hyrule reached for Wind’s pocket.
“Buzz off, slacker. It’s mine! I deserve it for my troubles!”
“That’s not supposed to be the lesson that you took away from this little experience!” Twilight groaned.
“If I help you get it back, will you give me half the money?” Wild asked Hyrule.
Time stepped away up the hall a little ways and poured a trickle of water from his canteen to clean off his hands and he laughed and laughed quietly to himself.

Assorted theories I have about Rupees
Rupees are magic batteries that Great Fairies need to live
Force gems are unstable/broken rupees
Gratitude crystals and star fragments are both crystallized raw magic that can fill up rupees
Rupoors are empty batteries
Minish distribute rupees, Blupees gather them up to take them to Mt. Satori
Rupee ore was used decoratively pre-Skyward Sword
Golden enemies get their power from rupees
#loz#zelda#theory#i'm going to follow this up with my conspiracy board when it's finished#i just figured posting the conspiracy board without context would confuse people

With this yandere harem aka Gannon hylia links zeldas Malone dink we should probably give one or two things for reader to have a idea of a fighting spirit here so what about a reader who is the God of mischief like they cause chaos around them their not actually evil they kinda just bored some times it helps the good guys some times not like Zant I think his name is spelled like that from twilight princess as link stabbed Gannon the final blow to make sure he was dead Zant somehow connected to him moved his neck to break it but in this au maybe reader told Zant to do that . As for a reason for hylia zelda and the other yandere to simp how about reader also has a calm side to them singing a lullaby to wind and tetra at their bad times and maybe reader being the one who made the ocarina that bends time to help a friend aka hylia who I guess gave it to the royal family up to zelda of ocarina of time they are a help to people they just vibe with and more funnier idea how about the headcannon of of the idea of reader being able to change forms cause now we're just making a loki reader at this point
Ooooh. I’m down for Deity of Mischief Reader.
That would definitely help in explaining why Hylia, Ganon, and Fierce Deity have gone yandere for them. It’s because they’ve known them for as long as they’ve been around.
And yes, Reader wouldn’t be evil, or at least they don’t try to be. But they’re a god of Mischief, they’ve gotta do some pranks and whatnot around the world.
They are the ones who help/give the idea to the koroks about making puzzles for Link to solve.
They’re the ones who create riddles and whatnot in temples.
Hell they created the rupoor as a goof. I mean you can’t blame them! Links gave just looks so funny whenever he picked one up and lost money.
They also are the ones to give the skull kids their childlike mischievous personalities. Reader visits them monthly, always agreeing to play their games and helping them with coming up with newer ones.
And I picture that unlike Hylia and the Three, Reader actually travels the land. They integrate with the people, shifting into a form of a mischievous child to start a snowball fight with the others. They shift into an elegant deer, the most beautiful that anyone has seen, and they taunt the many hunters of the forest. Appearing to them from a distance and then jumping behind a tree and transforming once again into something smaller.
As you stated, Reader helped each of the Links out on their journey and perhaps they even helped each of the Zelda’s out too.
I’d like to imagine that while Reader may have helped the Links/Zeldas out practically they also gave them moments where they could just be themselves.
Helped to remind them that they were children at one point, that there was still good within the world, and that they did not need to always be hardened warriors helping everyone else but not themselves.
Of course the Links/Zeldas would wise up to who was doing such kind deeds for them. After all of the world knows the tales of Hylia, then they should certainly know the mischievous tales of Reader.
Reader is also like the polar opposite of Fierce Deity and was known to bother him constantly with their pranks. Of course he was annoyed with them at first but over the years he grew to love it.
And he especially missed them when he was trapped within the mask, perhaps by a jealous Hylia?
And as you stated with Deity Reader comforting the Chain during their bad times, I definitely agree. In fact, I believe that Reader has an especially soft side for children (after all who is more mischievous than the spirits of children?).
I also head cannon that they’re the ones who got the Yiga Clan to be so obsessive with bananas. Most likely from a prank they pulled on them where Reader told them the bananas would give them strength beyond their years or something and then just left them. Never pulled the wool off their eyes.
Also like the fact that Loki’s colors are literally green and gold? Beautiful, Reader will match up with the Chain so well.
And you’d think Reader would have a fighting chance given that they’re a literal deity. But you have to remember FD is a god too, and he got trapped within the mask.
So, it is possible for Reader’s yanderes to steal them away.
And don’t doubt that they won’t.

My patron A.D. did this fantastic fan art of Triforce of Power Link... finding his true arch nemesis.
I love this so much -- his ‘tude and expression is so perfect! Like how dare it. (I mean we all felt that way when we first ran into a rupoor...)
Thank you so much A.D.! ヾ( ✪‿✪ )ｼ *✲ﾟ*｡⋆

Officially licensed Switch controllers add budget-friendly style
Let’s face it, gamers sometimes empty their wallets on their collections faster than a Rupoor can jump at you from a treasure chest. If that’s you, there’s good news. PowerA has released brand new controller swag for your Nintendo Switch on Amazon, and for a good price too.
Each controller comes with a ten-foot USB cable to connect with, which means your playtime won’t get interrupted by low…
