zelda games ranked by cat presence

the legend of zelda: this game has no cats whatsoever. 0/10

zelda ii: there's cat headed statues and cat enemies called mau. can't pet them. not very friendly. 3/10

a link to the past: there's a... catfish? kind of a stretch. 0.5/10

link's awakening: we have foxes and rabbits and even bears in the animal village but no cats? egregious. 0/10

ocarina of time: the old woman in the potion shop has the cutest baby tiger on the counter and she even has an animation where she pets it. i wish i could pet it too... 5/10

majora's mask: the old woman's wheelchair has a tiger face on the back! hidden easter egg cat, very sneaky. 4/10

oracle of seasons: the owner of the adorable kitty cat mittens perched in a tree needs our help to get her to come down! you can speak to her but you don't speak cat. a very impurrtant part of the trading quest. 7/10

oracle of ages: we are deprived of mittens. 0/10

the wind waker: link meows! how cute! okay he's not quite a cat but beggars can't be choosers. 1/10

the minish cap: well the cat quota has been met but at what cost? most of these cats will attack if you are small, except for purry who is purrfect. but they will also meow at you politely if you talk to them and some will even fuse kinstones with you. how fickle of them. realism 8/10

twilight princess: now THIS is a game for cat people. pick them up and cuddle them, turn into a wolf and suddenly you can understand them, they've basically got a full cat society going on, it's like the secret life of pets. this is paradise 10/10

phantom hourglass: rats, but no cats? rat problem probably explained by lack of cats. 0/10

spirit tracks: no cats in new hyrule? well this is truly the most tragic timeline. 0/10

skyward sword: remlits are so cute, they follow you around and meow and purr, you can pick them up and - hey what are you doing by that ledge you monster - they can even fly... you knew that before you tossed it over the edge, right? right?? 9/10 even cuter at night :3

a link between worlds: are cats just extinct in this timeline? hero shouldn't have been defeated damn 0/10

tri force heroes: hytopia has cats! even better, it has a cheetah costume!! catboy link 8/10 uwu

breath of the wild: the real calamity is having no cats to pet. 0/10

tears of the kingdom: more like tears of the catless 0/10

echoes of wisdom: not only are there cute kitty cats but you can even talk to them by dressing up as a cute kitty cat yourself wow this is a dream come true 10000/10

First Line Challenge

Share the first lines of ten of your latest fanfics (or up to if you have fewer) and tag ten people!

I was tagged by @miadearden @zeldaelmo and @amelias-calamity-quintet. I'm going with published fics on AO3 (except for one!) because you don't want to look into my drafts folder, I promise you. It's a nightmare in there...

Link stands on the streets of Central Hyrule staring up at the imposing building the locals call the Tower of the Gods. (Like the Fairy Tales - Modern TeLink for ZW, coming soon to AO3!)

Edward Elric once bonded his brother’s soul to a suit of armor. (A Battle of Wits and Wills, FMAB post-canon Dad!Ed)

Link’s eyes stung from dust motes floating in the air. (Broken Vessel, Twilight Princess post-canon, affectionately called my Bad Mood fic)

4. Sky is on dish duty again. (Chapter 6 of my LU Sprint Prompts from the discord server)

5. Unable to sleep, Zelda, dressed in a simple nightgown and stockinged feet with an old knit shawl around her shoulders, sat at the desk in her bedroom. (Sleepless Nights and Twilight Mornings, TP Zelink gift fic for @mistresslrigtar birthday! Hi friend!)

6. Legend stands on the edge of a mountain in an unfamiliar Hyrule and leans precariously forward to examine the incline. (Crash Landing, LU Legend whump for my internet pal @poposusz for her birthday!)

7. Zelda’s hands shake as she sits in the golden sands of the Gerudo Desert. (Honey Candy, botw Zelink for @miadearden Loftwing Letters earlier this year)

8. Already, the faint trails of smoke could be seen rising over the western walls of the castle. (Chapter 8 of my original legends fic On My Honor, which updates very slowly but does update!)

9. “I don’t get it,” Wind says, bouncing on his tiptoes at Legend’s shoulder. (Lucky to Love You, for the LU Legend/Fable fans out there. You're an awesome bunch)

10. The whole plane buzzes with static as the pilot speaks over the PA system. (Like the Holiday Films, modern TeLink holiday fic)

Thanks for inviting me to play, friends! I'll tag @poposusz @zolanort @waythroughtheice @sprite-and-the-bunnydragons @silvrash-797 @the-au-collector @mailrebel @mistresslrigtar @daemosdaen @fan-girls-r-us

No, pressure of course, and I'm sure some or all of you have been tagged before, so don't feel the need to do it again.

Zelda Reacts Part 9

this has been one of THE most requested outfits (like across every platform this series has been shared on) so I just hope it lives up to expectations!!

Part 8: Soldiers Armour <<<

[pelicanpig]

Proposal for new fandom etiquette:

If you read a fic because it was linked/recced somewhere, you leave a comment saying "came from XXX" and that comment doesn't need to include anything else.

Because when all of a sudden there's a lot of activity on one particular fic I WANNA KNOW WHY!!!!!
