When the victory is too hollow to accept, what's a hero to do but to demand a do over?

pride requests! i was thinking something with a trans/nb minish cap link! maybe just something sweet about coming out and being accepted by his grandfather and zelda? because i cannot imagine either of them being anything but super supportive. i just think that would be really cute, if you feel up for it! thank you!

:D!!! Absolutely yes

Summary: Link comes out as non-binary, even if they don’t know what it means quite yet. 744 words, fluff. Minish cap!

"They're all packed up! I'm sorry you had to come all this way."

Link was sitting on a chair by the door, swinging their legs since their feet still didn't touch the ground. Grandpa said they would have a growth spurt soon, but Link was starting to get skeptical. It hadn't happened yet. Link was curious if their Minish transformations had anything to do with it, but when they asked Ezlo he said not to worry about it.

Link tried not to worry about it. If they were small, they were small. Plus, they did not want to give up piggyback rides from Zelda. If they grew up to be big and tall, how would Zelda give them piggyback rides?

Link shook their head. They did not want to think about that possibility, so they forced their attention back on the conversation.

"I'm behind on deliveries, but I should be able to get it to the castle by this evening," Grandpa said.

"That will do. I'll tell my father," Zelda said.

Link perked up. "I can take them."

Zelda's ears wiggled happily and she smiled. "Oh, would you? I've been wanting to show you a new book at the library! We can stop there after you deliver the swords. And maybe get a treat?"

Link jumped off the chair and flapped their hands excitedly, nodding vigorously. "Can I?" They asked Grandpa.

"It's your day off, but if you want to, I don't see why not." Grandpa clapped Link on the shoulder and squeezed. "Good man."

Good man.

Grandpa was always calling Link things like that. Most of the other villagers called them boy. Zelda never used words like that. Ezlo didn't either. Ezlo called them kid, usually.

Gender had been on Link's mind ever since they met the Minish. The Minish didn't use words like man or woman or girl or boy; they didn't even use gendered pronouns! The minish were all they, and that's how they referred to Link, as well. At first it was strange, since Link had never heard of that before, but then they realized they liked it. They more than liked it: every time one of their Minish friends called them they or them, they got the happiest feeling in their chest. It felt good and right.

"Link?" Grandpa shook their shoulder.

Link blinked back into awareness. They must have zoned out. Grandpa and Zelda were both staring at them.

"Sorry," Link signed.

"What's on your mind, son?" Grandpa asked.

Son.

"Um." Link cleared their throat. It felt thick, like the sounds were moving through the thick swamp water in the Castor Wilds.

Zelda grabbed their hand and squeezed. "Are you okay?"

Link nodded. "I have something to tell you."

"You can tell us anything!" Zelda said.

Link took a deep breath, then forced the words out. "I'm not a boy."

Zelda blinked in surprise. "Oh! Does that mean you're a girl?"

Link shook their head. "No, I'm not a girl. I think I'm neither."

Grandpa rushed forward and pulled Link and Zelda both into a strong hug. Grandpa gave the best hugs.

Link wrapped their free arm around Grandpa's back and squeezed the hand still holding Zelda's. Grandpa pressed a kiss on the top of their head.

"Thank you for telling me," Grandpa said. "I love you and I support you. I'm so glad you figured this out."

"Well, I'm not sure I have it totally figured out yet. I just know I liked it when the Minish called me they, and I don't really like it when you call me son or man, or when other people call me boy. But I don't think it would feel right to be called girl, either." Link could feel themself rambling. They shut their mouth and swallowed the nervous feelings fluttering in their throat.

"That's alright," Grandpa said. He pulled back from the hug and rubbed Link's arm. "You have the rest of your life to figure yourself out, and you have me and Zelda to help you.”

"Yeah! This is awesome," Zelda said.

Link giggled and smiled so widely it hurt. "Really?"

"Yes really! This is so awesome. We can come up with a bunch of new words for you that aren't boy or girl or Miss or Mister or— wait, so no he or she, either, right?"

Link nodded. "Can you call me they and them?"

"Yes!" Zelda said, bouncing in place.

"Anything you want, Link," Grandpa said.

I cannot describe my gender other than

[sunanthrope]

Being genderfluid with pronouns that arent fluid is so infuriating

"Feeling feminine today." "Oh OK so she-" LOUD INCORRECT BUZZER wrong its still he/it

Wish more people understood that feminine is not woman is not she/her

Just bc I feel girly today doesn't mean I want you to refer to me as a girl??

Here's a little slapdash edit of the hypothetical "missing link" era Belrose, who I'm calling Laurel for reasons that should be obvious. I imagine them as being very straightforward and no-nonsense. They exist solely to hurt Brain. I wonder what they think about the fact they look almost exactly alike their deceased great-uncle-cousin whatever....

Im counting this as an ask - you've picked... The Team Escope TDWT AU!

This is 100% based on both another AU idea i had in my head (Hbombs vs Alenoah TDWT final four) and a take on @/real-total-drama-takes about Eva being on TDWT.

The main gist is instead of Tyler and Sierra getting on Team Chris, Eva and Izzy do, and the team is instead called "Team Escope". Alejandro's already a bit thrown by his team's general chaos and by Noah's presence (since he was Chris's assistant during the taping of Total Drama Dirtbags, a show Chris briefly tried filming that got cancelled before the mid season.), but he starts warming up to them while he tries to work on getting the other teams eliminated.

However, things don't turn out how he'd hoped since Team Victory, lead by the surprisingly competent duo of Lindsay and Harold, isn't failing nearly as badly as Alejandro expected. In fact, Harold makes it to the merge, and we get a final 7 of Alejandro, Noah, Eva, Harold, Heather, Gwen and Courtney (Heather was eliminated previously, got back during Niagra Brawls).

Gwen and Courtney get the double elimination, Noah and Alejandro aren't on amazing terms currently, Harold and Heather are seriously teaming up and seem to actually be friends, and Eva mostly just hopes she's still got a chance to win. After African Lying Safari where Alejandro and the Hbombs got immunity, Eva gets the boot; Harold and Heather want Eva out since out of the two she's the better player, Alejandro voted Eva because he wants to kiss be in an alliance with Noah, and Noah and Eva voted for Noah (Noah because he lowkey wants out and thinks he's going out anyways, Eva because she still wants to win and knows Noah would probably understand).

After Drumheller, Harold gets blown up and is booted instead of Alejandro (who had gotten the most votes. Even Noah voted for him.). Heather's trying extra hard to get in the Final 2 now, especially since she's motivated by the power of friendship now and Alejandro and Noah are still dancing around eachother (in a way similar to what happends in Slippery Slopes) Until they all reach Hawaii and Heather and Alejandro are both participating in the Tie-breaker for their last shot at competing in the final challenge. Alejandro wins the tie-breaker, they do the final challenge, kiss at the top of the volcano and Noah wins the season.

I think in general Eva being in TDWT would cause interesting changes in the dynamics of Team Escope since she's much less trusting than Tyler and even stronger than him, although she does have a weakness for pretty boys (bisexual moment). I think Alejandro in this AU has to rely on his team's strengths wayyy more than in canon, and in turn actually befriends most of these weirdos. keyword is most (he's still not a fan of Owen).

OTHER BIG CHANGES ARE:

-Tyler straight up does not compete

-Obviously Harold making it to the merge with her mad skills

-Trans Harold is real, she comes out mid season lol

-DJ, Lindsay and Harold are the team Victory trio for a couple of episodes

-Cody gets eliminated in episode 3 instead of Harold

-Owen gets the boot in episode 10

-Heather gets booted in I See London

-Sierra and Duncan both get eliminated earlier, both pre merge :

Sierra gets the boot instead of Tyler in canon maybe? Gwourtney happends in this AU so they don't vote for eachother and instead for her.

Duncan just does NOT mesh well with Team Escope's entire dynamic. Eva doesn't like him because of course she wouldn't, Noah doesn't like him because he's a dick in general and Alejandro doesn't like him because his borderline obsession with bullying Harold is costing them challenges + he's friends with Courtney in this AU too so that's an additional reason to dislike him.

-i uh, i haven't thought about when Izzy gets out? maybe she's the last out before the merge? but she does have to kiss Eva before that happends soooo (i AM inserting Evzy in this and you can't stop me)

Been a while since I've done a self-portrait. One of the ones where I render me 'air as black rather than the rather varyin' shades that all merge into brown I actually 'ave.
