nonverbal meme prompts ↪ they seem few & far between, so i tried to come up with as many scenarios as i could think of where dialogue wasn’t a necessary starting point. some are more uh specific than others / drabble-y, but they’re all dialogue-free ( tho ofc this does not necessarily extend to the response itself ). to reverse who sends what, send ‘ [ prompt ]+ ’ ! alter any as you see fit, & lemme know if anything’s unclear ♡

I don’t know why, but I suddenly feel like diving deeper into Link’s connections with my mutual’s muses. I already mostly follow one portrayal, but I want to make things more specific and personal. Something that goes beyond just the basics of each other’s universes.
Also, I’m always up for talking about becoming mains, but only if we’ve interacted a bit first (both ooc and ic) to make sure we’re both comfortable.
So, if you are interested, like this post and I'll message you to basically talk about our muses and see where it goes, or just feel free to do it yourselves.
THE MORNING SUN ROSE HIGH OVER THE ARID LANDSCAPE OF DORNE, its heat already palpable even in the early hours as he guided Epona towards the towering walls of Sunspear. Days earlier Link had thwarted a band of outlaws he heard was terrorizing local villages. And, even if to him it didn't seem too important, the fact that a complete stranger had decided to help had earned him the gratitude of the Dornish — and even an invitation from Arianne Martell herself to visit her family's ancestral seat in recognition of his bravery and skill.
When he finally reached his destination, he was greeted by a pair of guards who he followed through the corridors. Though, his attention was more in the exotic mosaic of colors, sounds, and smells the Dornish court seemed to be, than in the small conversation they tried to have with him until they got to the great hall. To his surprise, there weren't many people there, the quiet room contrasting with the bustling corridors outside. In all honesty it offered a brief and welcomed break, as the doors behind him soon opened. The soft noise making him turn ❝ Princess Arianne, ❞ the knight began, bowing his head slightly ❝ it is an honor to be here. ❞
@sunscess liked for a small thing!
Past lives couldn't ever hold me down Lost love is sweeter when it's finally found I've got the strangest feeling This isn't our first time around.
Also I'm gonna take from the Asoiaf universe the fact that you can't spend too much time in an animal's body without it having any consequences regarding your personality or the way you behave.
N.intendo is too family friendly sometimes so I will go deeper into the scars Link has (For example, at the end of totk his arm fully heals but in my portrayal I want to keep the scar from Ganon's attack at the beginning even if Rauru manages to heal it so that he doesn't feel pain).
I understand the "I will die for you" ship dynamic, but what about the "I will not let you die, I will not let myself die- we will, at any cost, survive" kind of couple?

Also talking about Link's origins made me think about how, in my opinion, he felt he never truly belonged anywhere? He doesn't belong in kokiri Forest because the bully he receives is a constant reminder he is not like the rest, Hyrule is a land completely unknown to him and what little he gets to discover changes in the seven years he is gone, and then, once he finds his place as the hero and helper to rebuilding the kingdom he is sent back to a time where he is "nothing" again and is left completely alone since the connections he created are gone ( except for Zelda, the only other person who remembers everything ) and even navi leaves him.
