FSR rambles ANOTHER ONE (It's the 22nd one)

Dark's mind reading is just, so damn fun.

Like Green is gambling SO MUCH putting his trust into Dark but it pays off because Dark can TELL Green is truly putting faith in him to give him the benefit of the doubt.

And that means A LOT to him.

The fact Green doesn't want to hurt him MEANS A LOT TO HIM.

Dark knows this man ain't stupid.

I like him giving Green a goodbye hug and a kiss on the cheek hah.

It's so sweet in a way.

And his parting words being words of affirmation for Green.

He can be a very sweet person when given kindness.

I just like them a lot.

Green was a pretty good influence on Dark. XDD

Dark Link's dramatic ass flying away is so funny to me and probably just me.

Like Dark doesn't typically fly or flex his wings much but they DO exist. XDDD

He can kinda just hover like Shadow but I don't think that's been shown even ONCE XDDDD

Dark isn't really the type to flex his magic in general though.

The Headspace IS HIS BODY which uhhh is a horror.

Time to mention: It changing from a desolate blue to that bright pink woodsy area afterward is kinda a reflection of Dark and the person he's talking to's mental space.

It'll change again later when he talks to Blue too.

Now that Dark Ran off we get an insight back into Green. Even though he technically WON this interaction? If you could word it that way, he got kinda what he wanted...He's still kinda overloaded with bullshit, poor guy.

Whatcha looking at Green-

...UH HI LINK????

WHAT ARE YOU DOING HERE???

And in Dark's outfit did ya swap? 👀

Link's just mumbling to himself about wtf just happened...which uhhh, Link. You just take the hobby of stalking yourself???

he doesn't seem to be aware of Green at all until Green makes himself known.

Not before his face bugs out. XD

Ngl. this is one of my favorite interactions its SO stupid.

The dialogue is up there in scenes that make me laugh just to read.

Like, Link my guy, did you ACTUALLY think for a SECOND that shit would work???

Link's eyes bugging out completely as he runs in terror from Green has to be up there in stupid shit. It's so ridiculous and amazing just tickles my brain lmfao. It's so dumb. XDDD

Link cycles through all 4's personalities for a second X'DD

1st panel: Vio

2nd Panel: Green

4th and 5th: Blue

6th being Red obviously

Green is so fed up with him after being kicked in the damn stomach. XDDD

Sooooo, we didn't learn a LOT from Link's appearance outside of the fact he's still lingering around within the headspace. Which is ODD because Dark hasn't brought him up or seemingly hasn't run into him...Despite Link STALKING him it seems.

Weeiiiird.

Link's adoption of the black tunic is odd to say the least. His mental state is still fractured and torn considering it's appearance.

And it dawns on me I don't think Green goes on to NEVER disclosed to anyone Link's still running around. X'DDDD (Re-reading FSR together like this is fun isn't it?)

A LOT of shit happens to where he didn't really have time to squeeze it in but it is funny this scene is still pretty up in the air on it's importance for now.

Also since this is rambles I don't have to keep secrets on who the weirdo next to Link is in the last panel.

That's FSRA Link. Which just leaves all sorts of weird implications I'll let you sit with, considering that man is from 100+ years in the future...

;)

True to his word, Shadow is able to tell Dark was active. Oh no.

LOL also not Zelda calling Green by the wrong name. X'D Poor girl isn't used to being around the four dudes her bestie splits into. (She literally had NO idea they were split until AFTER the final battle lmfao and then they walked back to the sanctuary and boom.)

So yeah Shadow tries to wrestle Dark back because dude's a dangerous little ball of evil. XD

He SAW what he did to Vio first hand and didn't wanna have that happen to Green.

I'll never not find it funny Dark can summon his sword in that form, but literally can't even use it. X'DDDD

He also yanked Green's arm away from the sword so he didn't get hit because Dark's very attached to Green at this point.

Shadow's got beef with the little guy and Zelda making a force field, and Shadow proceeding to SMACK into it always gets a laugh it's so dumb.

Art wise it's kinda funny just how LONG Dark's tentacles are in this scene considering I shortened them later. XD

Also...Considering recent updates Dark responding violently when in danger is...Well something. XDDD

Poor Green and his savior complex-

"I can help him-" - Green about the horrific monster that tormented everyone.

Shadow even points this out but Shadow's also projecting HARD onto Dark X'DDD

"I'm an evil horrible liar so this bitch must be too" - Shadow.

Shadow personally just wants everything to be perfect and peachy and that can't happen with Dark so he wants the easy way out so to speak.

Shadow sweetie, it's not your curse. XD

(Funny we're bringing that up...Shadow Link hasn't been in the headspace at ALL...Interesting huh?)

OOOMF.

That shit must have HURT to hear out of Green considering him and Shadow were doing MOSTLY well before that.

Green's been bottling his negative feelings towards Shadow for a LONG time now and JUST seeing what Shadow did while with Vio it was inevitable dude would snap.

Green immediately regrets what he said though.

Dark cuddling Green is always cute.

Shadow got called out and now feels like shit.

Not Zelda sitting here like "Genuinely wtf are yall talking about rn???"

He can't even argue with Green considering it was pretty true. X"D Even if it was a low blow.

Zelda blowing a hole through the castle has lead to...ISSUES.

Shadow's acting a bit ominously.

Mmm fast travel.

And bitter unresolved feelings. Our favorite.

Hiiiii it's been months since I touched this lmao.

Back into the game:

Green has a lot of hesitance too, he just chooses to stuff that down in turn for a more peaceful option.

he's aware dark has caused hurt and is INSANE but wants to give him a chance.

I think in a lot of ways he regrets that Shadow never had help because they just met "Too late" in a lot of ways.

Shadow had already committed many horrible deeds before anyone had a glimpse of being able to help him.

While Dark is still very new and able to be saved from a life of regret or villainy, cause Green recognized that spark of good in him that could blossom into a good person if they give it a try.

meanwhile, Shadow's being self loathing.

...To be fair a lot of what Dark Link says DOESN'T make sense due to it being...from an outsider's perspective utter nonsense (He knows Zelda lore lmfao.) but his claims Shadow just IS ganon are clearly getting to shadow cause he's got self doubt.

Meanwhile Green tries to remind him of his progress, and thinks Shadow and Dark could have something to bond over.

Aaaand there is it boy doesn't wanna be reminded of how much he's fucked up. It's hard when there's a mirror pointed at you.

Green's still feeling bad about what he said.

And since people missed it, and I was being cheeky:

Green and Shadow did share a lil smooch.

Dark isn't happy about it. XD

To be fair, I'd be pretty pissed off if my only goal was to get a lil smooch smooch and people were handing em to lord ganon evil lord of the buttholes too.

Bask in his beauty Shadow, he sure is pretty. UwU

Shadow letting Green down not so gently that he's an idiot will always be funny.

he was backed into a corner guys, be nice to him.

Shadow's of course more concerned about Vio rn.

I'd be worried about his reaction too...As we see later it's not a happy welcome to Dark Link XDDD

Dark Link isn't having being shoved back into Shadow's hat.

Shadow in a moment of...idk what you'd call it, clarity I suppose decides to let him stay with Green.

it's up to the reader to assume WHY he did that.

Realizing he makes Dark Link feel unsafe, just not wanting to argue. Overall there's hesitation on his end.

So he ends up in Green's hat. XD

Green asking a reasonable question about how he's gonna go get Blue...considering his physical form is WITH Green and Shadow.

And Dark responds verbally. So far I think he's only growled in that form. XD

So uhhh, Shadow's pissed off Dark refused to speak last night. XDDD

So if you're curious: My vision for Dark in this form is that speaking is VERY difficult for him to do so he just...doesn't.

This is his dormant form, so his "Functionality" is mostly...nonexistant.

This is a form that doesn't take a lot of effort to maintain or upkeep so his actual abilities aren't very wide.

Like he CAN talk. But simple phrases and words are easiest for him to do. Which is why he repeats "Yeah yeah" twice.

Shadow also fails to realize even THIS form was a step up from the fact Dark was a simple sphere with an eye before. XD

He grew a mouth to chew on Green...So he might have had the intention to speak last night and just...didn't.

But if he wanted to speak, he could just form back to his "Link" form or drag someone to the headspace.

Overall: Shadow ya dummy he probably just didn't have anything to say XD

Green coming to Dark's defense screaming "STOP IT SHADOW YOU'RE SCARING HIM!" is so funny because I without fail imagine the "HE'S AFRAID OF SANTA CLAUS!!!" "STOP IT PATRICK YOU'RE SCARING HIM!!!" spongebob bit.

Shadow letting the whole "Dad" debacle slip and Green's fucking face to that just sends me.

He looks so...judgmental. X'D

"This is how you'd treat your son?"

Dark Link giving Green the title of his "Dad" Whatever he thinks that means...because Shadow is a bad one is just, funny as hell to me.

Dark so obviously doesn't understand blood family ties (...His entire life revolves around 4 dudes who are one guy, and that guy's shadow all being in a weird as fuck relationship so uh...who blames him for not understanding family)

Affectively, Green is just someone Dark considers his family so...he's his "dad". XD

The title switch from Shadow TO Green is due to the fact he just feels more comfortable and safe WITH Green.

...Shadow uses THIS as an example of Dark being "Unreasonable" which is something else alright. XDDD

Green taking the piss out of the whole "dad" thing is pretty damn silly...Green you ARE the daddy now. X'D

I don't think Green would have tried this shit if Dark was in his Link form. XDDD

I know in the draft comic folders I got a comic where Green treats Dark differently based on his form and how Dark doesn't understand that. (him being uncomfortable with the finger chewing in his Link disguise vs his dormant form for example) and how he thinks Green's a hypocrite.

Last panel: Shadow DEFINENTLY not trying to keep everyone thinking Dark's just insane and not saying anything important.

I'll cut it off here since getting into the Darkblue segment (As I like to call it) is gonna be interesting I think XDD

FSR rambles 24

Back into Blue and Dark's meeting.

Dark Link is speechless at Blue's emotional state.

The face of "What the hell is wrong with you" if I've ever seen one, while also coming to the realization HE'S a part of what's wrong with Blue rn.

Just shyly mumbling he wasn't even TRYING to upset Blue, he was just venting his own feelings about the situation, realizing they hurt Blue a LOT no matter how much Blue needed to hear that shit.

Dark has a moment of clarity realizing they're both "Only good for hurting people huh?"

He realizes without even TRYING he did exactly what he promised Green he WOULDN'T DO.

He lied to him.

And it just makes him feel like crap mindlessly muttering "What do I do now?"

He's aimless and Blue feels much the same way.

He doesn't know how to grapple with the reality he was just smacked in the face with.

Dark's forgetting not everyone lives in his head mumbling to himself.

"...No you don't really like that huh?"

Earning a "huh?" from Blue because...what's this dude talking about now lmfao.

Dark clarifies, that he knows Blue doesn't like hugs.

Which BLUE clarifies he doesn't HATE them.

Both feeling pretty awkward and unsure after the exchange they just shared.

Blue's still feeling kind of defensive clearly.

Also Blue's eye shifted to Link's. It goes in and out for a few pages before staying as Link's eye.

Learning that Blue in fact doesn't HATE hugs, he offers one, saying it'd make him feel better.

The reason Dark assumed Blue DOESN'T like hugs is due to Red often forcing affection onto Blue and Blue responding negatively. (Especially in the OG FS) he doesn't hate physical affection, just when it's forced upon him.

...Reasonable question yet again Blue...

When Dark doubles down on the hug offer Blue realizes he's dealing with a weirdo and leans in.

He takes a few steps forward and is willing to hear Dark out on what he meant about Green now that Blue's feeling calmer.

Dark FINALLY introduces himself properly to Blue, just flopping his head into Blue's chest in exhaustion.

He follows this up by wrapping his arms around Blue and asks him if he can just go home now.

Dark at this point is very emotionally exhausted and it shows. Blue doesn't resist the hug but starts to retrospect the fight they just had.

Coming to the realization he and Dark were basically making a feedback loop of anger in the moment.

Dark breaks the tension in Blue's mind by clarifying he's not mad anymore and shows a bit of sympathy with "Bad stuff is always happening to you too" In reference to Blue...basically being hurt every 5 seconds in the OG FS (If you take a shot every time Blue is harmed in the OG four swords manga ya just might die)

Blue's touchstarved ass can't handle being hugged and tries to divert the conversation by tough guy saying "OH i can handle anything!" which Dark Link just shuts down X'D

Blue's trying really hard to push this guy away, at least emotionally.

While Dark is just, not meeting him with his anger at this point.

Him thinking Blue would be worried about the other's opinions, and trying to relate with "I wish people told me I was good too"

it's kind of vague what he means there but the implication is that he wishes people appreciated his work too, that people recognized what he did and Blue feels much the same. Somebody would just say "hey, you're doing great"

The want for praise and mutual admiration.

And he just bluntly tells Blue he thinks he's great.

Dark really does have a good opinion of the colors removed from the anxieties he basically plays tennis with XD

Blue obviously responds with anger at the blatant confession, cause Blue can't handle direct compliments. (he can't handle a lot of things XDDD)

He denies he cares at all about what Dark Link thinks about him. Who's this random guy to tell him shit anyway?

But being told this stuff DOES affect him.

And we get more of Dark Link's blatant jealousy.

It's a character trait that's often looped back to but Dark is EXTREAMLY jealous of the other Links.

He wants to be like them and have what they have but is far less explosive than Shadow about it.

He's more honest about what he wants vs the more brash "I'm just gonna take it" approach.

He's bitter at what he doesn't have, but instead of taking it out on the colors he often just stews in a growing self hatred.

His injury from Blue will come up again after his meeting with Vio.

The injury to his shoulder is a reflection of how his body reacts to the Four Sword on a smaller scale.

The four Sword damages him IMENSLY because he's a curse. He's a demon, an entity the four sword tries to seal and destroy.

It's something further to note that Green and Shadow are mentioned by Dark to BE his family, but Dark makes the mention he has no family that LOVES HIM here. At least, Dark rejects the idea Green or Shadow love him.

Dark's want to be a part of a family and BE LOVED loops back to his main goals being "I wanna kiss someone", physical contact and emotional vulnerability.

I usually hinge on the silly side of Dark's inherit desire for "kisses" and all the characters have dismissed this as a silly thing Dark wants, but that's kinda IGNORANT on their ends.

Dark doesn't JUST want to shallowly kiss someone he considers "hot" or attractive, he wants to be close enough with someone that they'd wanna do something that you'd associate with it. He wants someone to love him.

It's less about the action itself and more the idea behind it he's interested in.

Dark Link's desires inherently completely contradict his existence as a curse that destroys someone's mind, because Vaati's wish was extremely confused.

He's VAATI's vision of the IDEA of "Link" mixed with his hatred, his fears and desires for freedom.

And being a living contradiction really ends up messing with Dark's mind and mentality down the road.

because coaxing doesn't work...Dark Link diverts to his usual tactics.

Emotional manipulation.

He knows what will push Blue's buttons and acts accordingly to get Blue to act the way he wants and from his grin he's extremely pleased with himself.

Blue realizes too late Dark is playing him completely.

This guy can read him and get him to respond the way HE wants. And Blue just doesn't know how to react to that.

Blue's extremely defensive, feeling foolish as hell rn due to falling into Dark's trap.

Dark only pushes him further because this is amusing to him. XD

Blue comes to a real stand still with Dark because unlike the other colors, Dark matches his energy.

Despite his power, Dark Link doesn't take his threats seriously.

None of Blue's usual tactics work against Dark.

Getting mad, physical violence, in general being unpleasant just doesn't deter Dark Link at all.

Vaati's his master this should be a given XDDD

So Blue met his match and he doesn't know what to do because now he feels a twisted form of respect for this freak.

The line about Dark giving Green that flower so he could EAT IT will always be pretty funny to me because like...Dark wtf is wrong with you XD

Blue's face just about sums up the normal person's reaction to that.

Blue reached his limit for nonsense and accidentally pushed Dark's off button.

If you aren't in the know about Dark's weird reaction to head pats:

It's the ONLY real kind physical encouragement Vaati has given him through the series.

So it's something Dark Link seeks out.

Which is why when Blue goes to stop, Dark Link hesitates to let him but does leave flustered.

I'd be confused too buddy.

There was a lot of mixed messages given during their time together XD
