Tysm for your original headcanon!!! I will agree 100% on the Wild and Sun bonding idea but definitely not the pasta salad lol. I didn’t realize that I’ve been seeing you all over this corner of tumblr until I saw this so keep up the amazing work!!! You’re amazing!!!!!
Yall, I just realized a thing...
WILD AND SUN WOULD BE BEST FRIENDS.
hear me out here.
Both of them died, came back, and had to restore their memories. They both deal with feeling like an intruder in their own body, feeling like they can't live up to who they used to be in their past life. WAR PTSD!! FLASHBACKS!!! They're both knights (sort of? This is a bit of a stretch lmao) Sun went to a knight school, Wild used to be a knight before he kicked the bucket.
I need more content of them interacting and just relating to each other. Because they really would relate. Their experience of dying and coming back is not a very common one, and having someone else to relate to would probably make them overjoyed. Also, Wild has already spoken to her. Mostly just as a business exchange and she's Hylia then, but STILL. Pls someone write a fic abt them, I will marry you. This is my official proposal. Compete for my aroace hand right now. GET WRITING PLEASE YOU'LL HAVE MY SOUL. (because I'm too lazy to)
ngl I thought he was half-buried lmao
Tfw a goofy guy pops out of your shadow
I’ve gotta say that Moana 2 is probably not a cinematic masterpiece but holy shit.
1. Namedropping fanfiction is absolutely insane. Like I could maybe forgive that Maui stan but having him say fanfiction? What the fuck Disney???
2. That part where her sister says “don’t leave me” breaks me even though there is no reason to care about her as a character. That one line kills me. They cannot be making one dimensional characters like that and then give them the perfect separation anxiety trauma like this?????
Also yeah I know the movie’s been out for like a month.
There's 10 Links in the Linked Universe Chain. Here count with me.
Sky
Time
Legend
let's save Four for later
Hyrule
Twilight
Wind
Warriors
Wild
and finally, Four!
So uh... I got randomly really motivated and wrote 752 words of madness in like an hour? I am a really yappy wall. Enjoy!!!
PUMPKIN SOUP STORIES
The pumpkins on Skyloft looked like actual pumpkins. Which was weird because Wild knew that Sky was supposedly the furthest removed from him in time so theoretically they should’ve had the most differences in their food. But no, the pumpkins were definitely the same as the ones Wild bought in Kakariko, just slightly less fortified.
Wild put the last of the butter into the pot. He was following the same recipe he used with his own era’s pumpkins but the results were looking good so far. He picked up the new ladle Four had gifted him last week (the old one had shattered against a bokoblin’s head a month ago) and stirred the soup.
Maybe it was the altitude or the very stressful week he’d had in Hyrule’s Hyrule but Wild didn’t notice someone approaching until they were already standing right next to him. He craned his neck back to glance at them before turning back to the stew.
“Do you need any help with the stew?” Hylia – no, Zelda – no, Sun asked.
“No. I’m basically done.” Wild said.
“Okay. Has the altitude sickness gotten any better?”
“Yeah, the green potion worked. I could probably sleep for a week, though.”
Sun smiled at this. “I get what you mean. I took a thousand year nap after my first time on the surface. Well, I suppose that was a little different – but still.”
“Oh, I was only out for a century,” Wild replied, picking up the ladle again.
“What?”
“Huh?”
Wild looked up again at Sun when she didn’t respond. He stirred the soup and set down the ladle. “So… why were you asleep for a millenia?”
Sun didn’t answer right away, instead choosing to sit down next to Wild with her gaze fixed on the pumpkin soup. She told him about growing up with Link on Skyloft and the knighting ceremony. She told him about falling to the surface for the first time, alone and afraid. She’d led her best friend through the unknown and dangerous new world. Then she’d sacrificed herself for a thousand years to seal the inevitable darkness away until she awoke.
She told him about The Imprisoned and Demise and even though Wild knew how Sky’s story went, he still listened. So when she reached the end of that story he told his own, or what little he knew of what came before and the life he’d lived in the aftermath.
He told her about his family, the one he knew not in his own memories but from the little pieces that Mipha remembered. He had a sister, once upon a time. There was no knowing if they’d died during the Calamity. He told her about becoming a knight when he was twelve and a royal guard just two years later.
Then he told her about the Calamity and the guardians and waking up alone and free a hundred years later. She listened when he told her about the months of preparation and happiness he lived before fighting Ganon once more in a fight both far harder and far easier than he could ever have imagined.
The pumpkin soup was done by then so Wild split it into ten portions and called over the rest of the group to join them. The stories went forgotten as Wind burned his tongue and Sky finally got around to properly introducing everyone to Sun.
They didn’t stay on Skyloft long, stories of unnaturally strong monsters across Hyrule calling them down to the surface for another week before they stepped through another portal and were gone.
The next time they returned, Wild let Sun scoop the seeds out of the pumpkins (he would never trust anyone with the cooking pot again after Hyrule managed to light his ladle on fire). They laughed as they worked, scars that had been too raw the last time they met now healed enough to make light of.
They talked about their lives between their own adventures and the first portal. Sun told Wild about her childhood misadventures with Sky and Wild in turn told her about Flora and her fascination for frogs.
Wild took a small pouch of Skyloftian pumpkin seeds to try growing in Hateno that visit. He smiled faintly to himself when he noticed it was missing one day. He turned in the direction of a familiar castle that would soon become the ruins he’d woken up to two years ago.
The pumpkins on Skyloft looked remarkably similar to the ones in Wild’s Kakariko.

@palmolli uh how crazy would it be if I looked at this and went yoink mine and my brain exploded everywhere and now I have a fic idea for this??? Thank you to future me for agreeing to write it at some point.
Okay so it goes something like this:
Wild is trying to cook dinner on Skyloft. Note the 'trying' bit cuz I may randomly decide that it's funny to make him high as fuck on altitude or something just for shits and giggles.
Sun passes by and offers to help cook because she is less likely than any of the Links (including Wild btw) to burn the sun out of the sky (pun absolutely intended).
Wild makes some offhand comment about how he could "sleep for a day" and Sun's like "oh I've already been out for a couple millennia" (I've never actually been able to play SS so not sure if it's a thousand years actually T_T)
Wild says (0 hesitation, this is just pure unfiltered Wild energy here) "oh cool I was only ever dead for 100 years. A thousand is crazy."
Cue the pikachu shock meme except they're two-way spider-man multiverse pointing meme-ing at each other and then that brain explosion emoji. (Holy shit I sound insane. Never mind this is Tumblr. With all due respect, I'm assuming you understand at least some of this.)
And then there's the trauma dumping sesh with Wild being like "I got lasered and burnt to a crisp by a bunch of ancient metal eyeballs and died" and Sun's like "I got my soul eaten by this big-ass evil monster that turned out to be a fricking god."
Then they just look at each other and start cackling. Because obviously Trauma Funny™.
Holy shit what the fuck have I done. Actually never mind this is absolutely worth it.

Me when i’m the catalyst
Me when i’ve given up
Me when i’m the emptiness machine
Me when the little things give you away
Me when it’s my december
Me when i have a papercut
Me when i’m one step closer
Me when i’m with you
Me when i have a point of authority
Me when i’m crawling
Me when i runaway
Me when i’m by myself
Me when it’s the end
Me when there’s a place for my head
Me when i’ve forgotten
Me when i found a cure for the itch
Me when i’m pushing myself away
headcanon that wild can always tell where in time they are based on how edible everything looks. like imagine the chain walks through a portal and the first thing wild does is taste a pebble and he’ll know down to the century when they are.
@aaa-batteryy keratin touching
everyone on tumblr was going goncharov-style wild over a 90s romance movie that had the line ‘kiss me like the birds kiss’ and people were declaring this the most romantic thing anyone had ever said.
if anyone asks why link and zelda are qpr im shoving this in their face. qpr zelink fucking fight me on it. i can and will go down with this ship.
TOTK: Failure
link looking real sharp today yk what I mean
You run from him.
He follows.
Life goals right here.
botw/totk zelink has grown on me in time but personally i think the funniest interpretation of their relationship is that link, having absolutely no memories apart from muscle memory, has zero concept of dating or romantic relationships. it doesnt help that hes aroace because he thinks his very queerplatonic relationship with zelda is just them being "ultra best friends." if you asked him if he was dating the princess link would be like Dating? does it really look like that? like yea we're roommates we sleep on the same bed sometimes i make her breakfast every morning we cuddle while watching horror movies on the ipad but isnt that just what ultra best friends do?? and if you ask zelda the same question she just shrugs and says can't tell but im happy with this
YES LEZGO THE ZELINK QPR HEADCANON
I need them to hug so bad you don't understand TwT
Zelink my beloved they're the qpr ever🥺
headcanon that sometimes sky will just hide under his sailcloth and fall asleep curled up on the ground and whenever the chain ends up in a snowy field they just have to spend a couple minutes looking for him
SO CUTE AND WHOLESOME AHHHHHHH
*gently holds*
holy shit there’s other people on the internet who have the same very generic very easy username as me????? to anyone who cares if the account doesn’t have Penguini in the profile picture its not me.
headcanon that when sky finds out about everyone’s fucked up childhoods he falls deep down the imposter syndrome rabbit hole
@aaa-batteryy my tumblr is stalking me i swear
Hey it’s ace week and you’re local ace has something to say! I’ve been out as ace for 3 years now and it’s still a big part of my identity that I’m proud of so here’s a lil something for those who need it!
The leftovers on the floor are what really sell this.

@aaa-batteryy I saw you like the last one I reposted. I’M WATCHING YOU!!!!!
