Dya think this is unfair?
people are very dramatic about them, they’re honestly not even half as scary as people pretend they are. When I was young, a zoo had them in an enclosure with fencing open enough you could touch them. Not a great set up obviously, but as a child I used to pet them and they really didn’t even care.
To be honest, these days I just associate them with Skyward Sword. They aren’t any more or less aggressive to humans than the average large bird.

Dance Fairy, Fairy Bright
By Adam Latham
Dance fairy, fairy bright, What a truly happy sight, Let those tiny feet away To a place of fun and play. Make your wings of silver hue Take you to the lily zoo, To the courts of croaking kings, Where the handsome Frog Prince sings.
Dance dance fairy, fairy bright Skip across the clouds so light, Jump as far as skyward can, Higher higher little man. Glide upon the rush of air With the birds that fly up there, And when all the playing's done Take those wings and fly back home.
Artwork: Fairies by Francis Danby (British, 1793 - 1861)

“The freedom to piss on the cement of Empire [...].”
---
The dry semi-desert that is South Africa’s Karoo began as an ice cap on the supercontinent Pangea [...]. The Karoo ice cap was kilometers deep and peaked between 359 and 299 million years ago. [...] Another hundred million years after Pangea split [...], the Karoo became home and then graveyard to dinosaurs of the Jurassic Era [...]. [Then] volcanic extrusions and kimberlite pipes threw skywards the purest form of carbon: diamonds. [...]
The discovery of diamond-bearing rock in the northern Karoo in 1869 propelled the [British] Empire into inventing new aspects of the technosphere, in which metal mining structures, wooden beams, steam engines, long guns, and the muscles and bones and guts of migrant laborers were employed to reconnect the volcanic residues of the Late Cretaceous with the economic and political landscapes of South Africa and Britain. At the time, 90 percent of the world's industrial diamonds on the market came from the region, giving [...] [the British Empire] mastery over geological matter [...]. Profits from the sale of Late Cretaceous diamonds from ninety-one million years ago fed the formation of cities, corporations, and institutions in England and her Cape. [...] [T]he entrepreneur Cecil John Rhodes amassed a personal fortune from the diamond rush, taking control [...] [of] the Big Hole of Kimberley, where the largest kimberlite volcanic pipe extrudes. Appointed prime minister of the Cape Colony in 1890, Rhodes set about establishing a legal infrastructure that favored mining and a social infrastructure that established race-based disenfranchisement, creating a class of black laborers [...]. Black South African land rights were stripped in 1913; black economic activity became largely confined to physical labor, much of which was in the mines.
In the 1900s, the Carboniferous Era from around three hundred million years ago entered South African politics via South African’s coal-fired power stations. In the 1960s, the newly independent Republic of South Africa, [...] [controlled by] an embittered [white] minority, sought [...] to pursue formal policies of race-based segregation [apartheid], and [in order to fund its projects, then] commissioned geological surveys for coal, oil, and uranium. [...]
---
“Colonization=‘thingification’” wrote the postcolonial philosopher Aime Cesaire.
For Cecil John Rhodes, nature was a spectacle that could be kept in a zoo; the university was a project to be “funded from the stomachs of k*firs”; migrant laborers in the diamond mines were required to wait two weeks before leaving, while the contents of their colons were collected and painstakingly searched for ingested gems. Under colonial regimes of extraction of labor and minerals, Africa became a laboratory for the necropolitical: relations of life for relationships of ownership and death. [...]
His estate set up the University of Cape Town and his statue was erected in 1934: a two-ton bronze effigy of the man set on a concrete plinth in a pose that calls to mind Rodin’s The Thinker. In the view of the statue’s gaze there was Rhodes Highway, Rhodes Drive, Rhodes High School; to the statue's right was Rhodes Memorial, and to its left his zoo; on the far side of the old Cape Colony would be built Rhodes University.
Memorialized thus as the archetypal Reasonable Man, the aura of his realism must have been surreal to those who had suffered under his rule. [...] [I]n 2015, academics, students [...] in and alongside the University of Cape Town found themselves confronting a performance of the execrable on March 9, 2015, when [a] student [...] threw excrement - nightsoil from a shack settlement - over Rhodes’s statue to call for the university’s decolonization. Rhodes’s statue was removed on a flat-bed truck exactly one month later [...].
---
Geologies of morals and morals of geology: the Karoo Ice Age, frozen and global, and Rhodes’s Karoo Age, an era of extractive economy that sacrificed life and created sacrifice zones. One lasted a hundred million years, the other a hundred and fifty. Both changed the relations between geology and life. [...]
Amid the Rhodes statue’s formal removal on April 9, 2015, a construction worker - a deconstruction worker, really - took a moment to piss [...] on the stairs leading up to Rhodes. It was his own moment in a month-long protest [...]. A moment to seize the possibility of vulgarity that breaks the lines of authority, the fountain of piss flagrantly rejoins the flow of water through all bodies and all spheres. The freedom to piss on the cement of Empire asserts that the body of the construction worker and the body of the shack-dweller inhabit the same earth as the Empire, and that cement, ultimately, is a political subject. As is diamond-bearing kimberlite, and gas-bearing shale. [...]
Colonization made predatory claims on the earth’s geological flows and processes without regard to the reciprocities through which they were formed in the earth’s spheres.

Yourpeepysucksdotorg Homepage
Abt Me
Hi! You can call me Legwarmer. My pronouns are she/he/they.
I am spiritual otherkin and have multiple kintypes. I am also a diagnosed DID system, my system blog is @dreamcircuitsys !!!
Abt Yourpeepysucksdotorg
The reason I created this blog is to have a safe space to post about my experiences with being otherkin, especially my main ID, as well as to learn more about this community and myself.
Abt My Otherkinity & My Kintypes
I’m spiritual otherkin - I’ve lived past lives as all my kintypes! That’s where their names come from :] Below you can find a list of all my kintypes and the names I use when shifted!
💜 White Footed Purple Fuzz Peepy (Itemlabel) Legwarmer - She/Her
🍦Alolan Ninetales (Pokémon) Yogurt - She/Her
🪼 Vaporeon (Pokémon) Arroyo - He/Him
🦊 Awoofy (Kirby and the Forgotten Land) Reese - He/Him
🐈 Remlit (Legend Of Zelda: Skyward Sword) Marina - She/Her
💫 Fecto Elfilis - They/It (Kirby and the Forgotten Land)
💚 Little Mac (Punch-Out!! Wii) Maximino - He/Him
(Note: Due to Fecto & Maximino I’m technically fictionkin also! But I just use otherkin as an umbrella term.)
Some Disclaimers -
Doubles are always free to interact for any of my kintypes! Feel free to block or not interact if you don't feel comfortable with doubles, I won't hold it against ya! Just let me know if you don't want me interacting.
I will not tolerate any sexual jokes about any of my kintypes. This is mainly referring to Arroyo, but it will be an automatic block.
DNI:
(I don’t like making DNIs usually since they’re typically just common sense, but I feel like it’s necessary here. Otherkin get bullied/harassed a lot and I don’t want that happening on my blog, and I also want you all to know that if I reblog something from someone who falls under one of these categories that it was a honest mistake.)
•Bigots in general. You all know who you are. (I can elaborate if needed, just shoot me an ask, but this should be self explanatory.) • If you’re going to drag me into identity discourse, or if you’re going to twist my words to push your own personal beliefs. I’m not going to debate other people’s existences with you. Don’t start discourse over something I post. Say anything you want to me, Legwarmer. Don’t attempt to hurt others.
•Proshippers, MAPs, Zoos, again, you know who you are, I shouldn’t have to elaborate, we do not condone hurting others on this blog. •I don’t care if NSFW/Kink blogs interact, just don’t add anything onto my posts or message me with anything NSFW/Kink related. I’m not comfortable with that. You guys do you though! Judgment free zone, just… this isn’t the spot for NSFW of any kind.
•If you make me uncomfortable I’ll just block you.
Xtra Info
I have a different tag for each of my kins now! Tags will be formatted as “#(Kin name) speaks” - for example, “#Legwarmer speaks”!

We heard the Indigo Girls play an outdoor concert at the zoo last summer. It was the end of the season, and the crows were beginning to gather in the numbers that would characterize their great autumn flocks, swirling in the dusk. There were enough of them to make people start looking skyward, pointing, and to make those with the common, subrational crow fear start feeling edgy. A few songs into the first set, about twenty crows settled in a tree at the edge of the field, and every one of them sat there quietly, with toes and faces pointed toward the stage. Were they enjoying the music? At the break, the crows flew off, but they returned when the Girls came back onstage and started the second set. I watched the three on the "front-row" branch. Were they–? I can hardly suggest it, and it was barely perceptible. Were they nodding their heads in time? "If the world is night–shine my life like a light."

Wereolw Zelda as Strix
A Legend of Zelda werewolf AU featuring Skyward Sword Zelda as the wereowl Strix, and I also feature Ganondorf, Inuyasha's father, Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles characters, and my Inkling and Octoling characters.
Strix said to Zelda as she begins her story, "My name was actually Zelda, but the man whose made this way called me Strix, so I take it." and Zelda ask the wereowl, "Made you?" Strix said with sadness, "Well, my life has not been easy since I was a test subjects years ago." and Zelda said in shock, "Wait, what?" and Midna said to her, "Yeah. Beside Styla, do you seen any werebirds?" Strix said, "I remember having a happy life with friends when I was a little girl until I lost my mother to cancer before I enter high school. I wanted to make sure no one would lose their loved ones to cancer like I did, so after I graduated, I volunteer to this lab known as Vita Nova Genetics."
Zelda, a young woman with long blond hair and wearing a pink and blue dress, arrived at Vita Nova Genetics where her works will begins and walk up to the front desk, where a woman is working. Zelda ask the woman, "Hello, I'm Zelda, and I'm here for the volunteer job."
The head of Vita Nova Genetics is a tall dark skin man with red hair and a beard and wearing a dark business suit and he said to Zelda as he shake her hand, "You must be Ms. Zelda. My name is Ganondorf, the head of Vita Nova Genetics. Me and my late partner Mr. Toga Yasha formed this company to help improved the lives of human beings, even find a way to immortal. It is great of you to joined us, Ms. Zelda." and Zelda said, "I'm happy to be here as well, Mr. Ganondorf."
Mr. Ganondorf introduced Zelda to a African American woman with red hair, "Zelda, this is April O'Neil, father of scientist Kirby O'Neil. She joined our team a few weeks ago. I'm such that the both of you will get along well." and April said to Ganondorf, "Thank you, Mr. Ganondorf."
April whisper to Zelda, "I noticed that some important equipment was being moved to the basement, and Mr. Ganondorf seems to dodge any questions about it. We need to find out what is he hiding."
Zelda and April sneak inside the secret door and head to the basement of the labs and the two girls were shocked to see people in glass cages, and it look like some kind of twisted zoo. Looking around, Zelda and April see these people are a blond hair man wearing a yellow shirt, brown jacket, beige cargo pants, and boots, a african american man with a purple mowhak wearing black pants, a japanese man in a brown kimono, a shirtless blond hair man, a teenage girl with orange hair color wearing old clothes, and a teenage dark skin girl with purple hair color. The girl with purple hair see Zelda and April and begs them, "Can you help me? My name is Oliva, and I was volunteer to worked here, and I end up here. One of the people here.... they are saying they turn volunteers here into a new speices!" and this give horror to Zelda's heart as she remember Ganondorf's words, "We formed this company to help improved the lives of human beings, even find a way to immortal."
Just then, April let out a cry and Zelda turn around to see her missing and Zelda look around as Oliva said in fear, "Oh no, the head scientist... he is here." and Zelda quickly make a run for it before a pale skin man whose look like a mix of a human and a bat stop her and said, "Hold it right there. Do you not think I hear you coming in?" and the voice of Ganondorf said from behind her, "Well, well, Ms. Zelda." and she turn to see Ganondorf with six guards as the black skin man give a evil smile, "I see you found my hidden work here. I was hoping that you would find it late once you agree to be a full time here at Vita Nova Genetics. I guess you and Mrs. O'Neil was too curious." and then said, "By the way, Jurgen, where is April O'Neil?" and Jurgen, the human bat, answer, "I'm sure Dr. Stockman is seeing her now." April land right in front of Zelda and Ganondorf before a humanoid fly in a lab coat put on needle on Zelda's neck and she cry out after he injected something in Zelda and then fly to Ganondorf, "What did you just put in me?" and the fly said to Zelda, "I put the DNA of a Strix, a genus of the owl family, in you, Ms. Zelda, since you seems to be too smart." Zelda ask Ganondorf, "What are you doing here? What are you doing to these people?" and Ganondorf reply to Zelda as two of the guards take April away, "It is like I said, Ms. Zelda, as I'm improved lives of humans by awaking their animal nature. Me and Toga are werebeasts of ancient legends, our kind hunted by humans and wolves whose lived among men. We formed this company, Vita Nova Genetics, to help restore dying werebeast species and recover the natural order, but I see us more as alphas of this new pack of ours. Too bad that Toga doesn't see it that way and he would never accepted to this type of work I oversee at Vita Nova Genetics after recruiting Mr. Stockman here, so I have him help me remove Toga and I see to it that his finances are given to me to keep our work going under my watch." Zelda said in shock after hearing this, "Y-You killed your own business partner." and Ganondorf said, "No. Toga is alive, but the man he was is no more as I see to that and his death by car crash has to staged so no one would ask questions." and order Zelda, "Follow me if you want proof." which Zelda did due to the guards.
Ganondorf lead the group to a room where there was a white fur humanoid dog with red eyes growling inside a glass cage and moonight shining from lightbulbs as Ganondorf greet the dogman, "Hello, Toga. I wanted to introduced you to Ms. Zelda, or should I call her Ms. Strix now. Starting tonight, she is a new member of our team and my pack." Zelda was shocked about this before she begins to changed and Ganondorf said as he toon started to changed, "Ah yes, I forgot about the full moon lightbulbs would affect werebeasts like you and me. I guess it slips my mind."
Under the artifical full moon in the room, Zelda changed to her horror to a purple feather humanoid owl and collapse as Ganondorf, now a dark wereboar with a flame like mane, said to the guards whose become wolves, "Take her to her cage."
Weeks has passed and Zelda has accepted her new name of Strix as the scientists did tests on her and April, whose is now a werecat.
As Strix try to close her eyes, she hear alarms and saw a werewolf fighting the guards and freeing the others. He then walk to Strix's cage and the wereowl ask him, "Are you letting us out of here?" and the werewolf nod before he destroyed the glass, freeing Strix.
Outside, a wererat in a brown kimono said to the other werebeasts, "I help Boba keep his human mind and we work out a plan to escape that place. Now, we must part ways so Ganon would not catch us all." and April said to Strix, "I'm going with him. I don't have a home to go back to now." and Strix said to her friend, "Very well, April. I'm going with Boba then. I will mess you, my friend." and April said, "I will too, Zelda." The two friends give a farewell hug before Strix carry her new werewolf friend out into the night sky.
Strix continue her story, "After me and Boba escape the lab, we soon find Malon and Morhoam's farm and we basically begs them for a job and a home at the farm. Later on, after we discover each other wereeast form, we open up about what happened to us by Ganon and the rest of Vita Nova Genetics, and Morhoam formed the pack to formed a protection against Vita Nova Genetics." Zelda said to Strix, "How horrible of yours story, Strix." and then ask, "How did Ganon keep in control of himself?" Malon said to Zelda, "I'm afraid we are having a theory on that, which is the same on how you help your mate." Zelda realized in shock, "You are thinking that a weredragon help him?!?"

Dance Fairy, Fairy Bright Poem by Adam Latham Dance fairy, fairy bright, What a truly happy sight, Let those tiny feet away To a place of fun and play. Make your wings of silver hue Take you to the lily zoo, To the courts of croaking kings, Where the handsome Frog Prince sings. Dance dance fairy, fairy bright Skip across the clouds so light, Jump as far as skyward can, Higher higher little man. Glide upon the rush of air With the birds that fly up there, And when all the playing's done Take those wings and fly back home. 6/7 #fairytaletuesday #fairytale #fairytaleflash #folklorethursday #poems #poem #poetic #poet #poetry #poems #poetryofinstagram #classicpoetry #fairytalepoetry #sacredromance #fantasyworld #otherworldly #Spiritique #mindfulness #Spiritual #Spirituality #mystical #mystique #mystic #mysticisim #renaissance #renaissanceart #folk #folklore #folkspirits #folkmystic #fantasy https://www.instagram.com/p/Ckx2o_RSMnD/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=

I know Zelda lore is generally complicated and all, but if you know of the manga (it is a prequel to Skyward Sword and considered a origin story of sorts) what are your thoughts on Hylia and Demise? and the chosen hero aka The First Link?
Some would interpret it as more of a origin story of hylian legend, so like something that is more biased and very different than the true historical happenings of an ancient era, so shrouded in legends very much.
IMO Zelda lore is also immensely take-it-or-leave-it. I've always been a bit lukewarm on The Great Zelda Timeline, since I feel like it's more logistical to think of the games as effectively self-contained AUs of each other with a few threads of continuity that can give context.
I'll also say that I know little of the various manga adaptations, but the skyward sword manga in particular doesn't really appeal to me; I know enough of it to not particularly want to know more. I’m not a fan of its version of Hylia being almost exactly like Zelda, especially when canonical details in Skyward Sword imply Hylia was not really humanlike at all- the “feathers” from her wings look more like chunks of crystal shrapnel.
I've got my own headcanons / reads into that gap, which are- much like canon- completely take-it-or-leave it, but I think they’re fun. I will put those down under a cut, here, because they get long.
So my major read on the events predating Skyward Sword, and thus predating "everything" in the Zelda mythos, is that the golden gods are effectively the big bang. Nothing 'as we know it' exists before them, everything 'as we know it' exists after them. For a while, they overlap with their creations; this is where their names and predilections become known to a degree. Thus, there's a kind of dynasty of gods- the first dynasty being Din/Nayru/Farore.
This ultimately ends in the creation of the triforce- the point where the gods exited the world. Eldritch artifact, basically a hole in reality that leaks infinite primal potential. Simultaneous evidence that "the throne" is empty, and the tools of creation used to shape the world.
A take I have at this point is that both Hylia and Demise are worshiped like gods, but they're basically powerful natural spirits. But they're kind of major contenders, and begin fighting each other over the Triforce. Hylia has her supporters and creations, Demise has his, and they’re both, IMO, flawed.
Hylia is calculating. This is basically textual in Skyward Sword- she appears to value leaving as little as possible up to chance (hence Fi as a guide to Link, who seems to have been trained to disregard her own emotions as much as possible) and by the works she leaves behind alone, she verges on pretty heartless- the entire Lanayru Mine society consists of sapient robots who are clearly people, and cherished by the Thunder Dragon and vice versa, and, um... are obviously dying and collapsing into an inevitable disrepair they are, a certain degree aware of. Skipper does not even leave his duty to try and go home using the borrowed time the Timeshift stones give him so that he can be with his family when that borrowed time runs out... and it does, because we never see those guys in any “future” game.
Basically, Hylia values order, but not autonomy. If she has her way, it will never even occur to you to contradict her or speak against her. She cares, but her model of caring is irreconcilable with human free will or determination. She’s seen as the benefactor of the hylians, who took their names in her honor, but Skyloft from what we see of it is a little less like a sanctuary and a little more like the Human Zoo from Steven Universe- especially down to that it was used to cultivate Link and Zelda. The Loftwings are even ostensibly divine forces that specifically observe and manage each denizen.
Fi is arranged to self-terminate so she won’t contaminate anything other than her objective. Zelda is given the ability to realize Hylia’s goals at a key point such that if she has an attack of self-loathing on recognizing Hylia’s memories, this, too, serves her larger game plan- it in fact works better if Zelda doesn’t want to be Zelda right then, because she’s just gotten Hylia’s memories uploaded into her real hard. (We’ll get back to Zelda)
Meanwhile, Demise enjoys freedom, but not in a way that really seems to respect people. Ghirahim, compared to Fi, is wildly unfettered; left to his own devices, to pursue his own interests and opinions. He’s free. And Demise crushes him.
Likewise, when talking to Link, Demise is polite, even charmingly sporting. Unlike any other Zelda boss before or since, he textually in-universe suggests that you should prepare as best as you can and take as much time as you need, while agreeing to wait in one specific location. In polar contrast to Hylia, he clearly does not have a grand divine plan. He intends to strip Link down by force exactly the way he did Ghirahim, but he won’t enjoy it if he doesn’t give Link the chance to waste all of Ghirahim’s hard work stalling and forcing Link to a standstill. Demise wants Link to be as gorged up with freedom and power as possible... so that he can be the greater force and shatter it.
This factors in to their metatextual successors, Zelda and Ganondorf. Zelda is anticipated, cultivated, and extremely controlled. Even at the extreme endpoint of the timeline as we’re aware of it, Zelda is invoking Hylia for power. This, logically, shouldn’t be the case- Hylia is completely terminated. Anything that Hylia had, is now Zelda’s, via birthright and the ritual that awakened Skyward Sword Zelda, the very first one. Zelda’s a divine-blooded demigod; she ‘honestly’ comes by all the power she must need.
But Hylia never really meant Zelda to be a worthy successor; simply a Favored Heir, who, for her favoritism, has the best prize Hylia gives all of her most important servants: the prize of being completely preordained. Known. Controlled. Nayru seems to be the “natural” god of time given Oracle of Ages; but Hylia seems to position herself as a conqueror of time. She viewed Zelda as an extension of herself; simply a continuation who would behave in certain, useful ways- human ways, sentimental ways, that are inaccessible to Hylia herself, to love Link and be loved by him- and then when the time is right she wakes up and knows all of her instructions and will act perfectly, because you were Hylia all along.
Conversely Ganondorf pretty obviously hates the gods period, no exception, no “your god’s worse than my god”. He wants things to be his and his alone. He’s not even a favored son to Demise’s curse, if we are supposed to believe- as seems to be the implication- that said curse is responsible for every Zelda antagonist that is a blight to Hyrule; there are plenty that have zero connection to Ganondorf, and it suggests Demise’s Incarnation is a concept that abandons Ganondorf, regularly even. If there’s anything Ganondorf has from Demise, it’s things like the title of demon king, that seems to be Ganondorf’s own efforts that pull him over the gap.
The one time Ganondorf succeeds by the obvious assistance of a higher power, it is when the Triforce of Power intervenes on his behalf in Twilight Princess, and in the same game, we see Ganondorf desecrate and behead the statues of the Triforce Goddesses in Hyrule Castle’s throne room.
So- getting back to Skyward Sword and the god war.
Hylia claims she was entrusted directly with the triforce. We hear this claim through the story told by her subordinates. It seems to line up with that Ghirahim- the chattiest member of Demise’s forces by virtue of being last man standing for most of the game- makes it clear Hylia’s incarnation is his biggest problem to resurrecting Demise.
But, there’s a couple of threads to spot in this narrative, and those are the things that make me think Link’s position is complicated, both regarding the triforce and otherwise.
Hylia cannot use the triforce. This is explicit. If it was truly given to her for keeping, she’s at bare minimum using bad faith workarounds of instructions she was given or parameters set on her. We don’t have Impa as an entity informed of the war who understands and agrees with Hylia make the wish on her behalf; instead a hero is cultivated. Link is a trap for the triforce.
And Link is obviously cultivated. He’s marked from birth by the Red Loftwing. Zelda’s speech when Link finally catches up to her and she gains Hylia’s memories have her outright say that Hylia used Link. That Zelda’s existence is a trap for Link.
Now... to me, I feel like this has fascinating context for the fact that Link and Zelda have this omnipresent yet often stilted relationship. Almost every game ends with the implication Link and Zelda are together now, a couple now; games that give him over love interests tend to come with this obvious subtext of “but you’ll leave her to be with Zelda, right? Or if you won’t be with Zelda, you won’t be with anyone,” and even in isolation, in Majora’s Mask, the Song of Time taught by Zelda and the Ocarina of Time given by her are the most essential thing in-game to proceed.
But also, there’s a bunch of times Link either optionally or explicitly tried to be in a relationship with someone else? In Skyward Sword you can flirt with Peatrice and while the game clearly insinuates this is a fake, ‘mean’ relationship unlike Link’s devotion to Zelda, it never out and says it. Link could be totally serious. He definitely was serious in Breath of the Wild, where Mipha’s working on their engagement rings, which no unserious couple would be talking about, and the wedding’s only called off on account of the bride’s abrupt death... which her kin even take out poorly on Link.
I don’t mean this as an anti-zelink screed, but I think it’s interesting to me- and really morbid- that Link and Zelda are implied in Skyward Sword to be cosmically ordained star-crossed soulmates. Link is destined to be Zelda’s symbolic groom, but also, their happiness and union are actually optional. The real thing that’s mandated, that Hylia counted on, was Link loving Zelda and despairing at losing her. Link, running after Zelda into certain danger. Link, loving Zelda, and Zelda being loved by Link, as a trap.
This is the main way I diverge from the manga’s take of Hylia and the zeroth hero as lovers- because I feel like the fact that Hylia, who herself does not seem to value emotion directly (less than Demise, who deliberately wants to get an emotional response out of you) is so concerned that Link must love Zelda, that he must know and chase Zelda, that Hylia’s will has to be distant to him...
Implies Hylia was perhaps scared of Link. Which is silly; she’s a goddess and he was not even really destined yet. She was scared of a hypothetical person she was molding into a template, or if ‘scared’ isn’t the right term, she was concerned that something might. go wrong. with Link, if she started selecting people for these qualities.
As if, perhaps, from the original person Hylia was seeking to cultivate again, there were actually qualities about the zeroth hero that Hylia didn’t like very much. That the zeroth hero may have been strong, and brave, and deserving of the title of hero... but did not love Hylia, and was not devoted to her.
The zeroth hero also seems vanished from Skyloft’s history. Only Hylia is stated to have saved them.
But things come in threes in this franchise, even if one of the three is disgraced or hidden.
If Zelda is Hylia’s favored heir, whether or not she wants this and often explicitly not wanting this, and Ganondorf is Demise’s (figurative) discarded bastard whose frustration and ambition allow the parent to parasite off of him from beyond an absolute grave...
What is Link?
Let’s talk about Majora’s Mask.
A friend of mine exposed me to the notion that Majora’s Mask is kind of a dying-dream game; that it takes place overwhelmingly within Link’s mind. Actually looking at the imagery and word choice used by this game, and how many characters inexplicably repeat (Cremia and Romani’s unnatural resemblance to Malon; Koume and Kotake as benevolent NPCs who seem to never acknowledge their previous run-in with Link; Ganondorf’s face leering down from the moon), this would seem to make sense.
Especially the Happy Mask Salesman, who as textually as the game can get, is functionally a psychopomp and definitely has some kind of agenda that makes him very pushy towards Link, but in a way that feels distinct from any other character nudging you into a quest.
Majora’s Mask seems to be illuminating the death of the Hero of Time, not the first Link but the ‘ur’-Link that out-of-universe came to define modern Link. There are two major, powerful figures in this game, one that’s omnipresent and the other that is much more enigmatic and missable.
The first is Majora. We are introduced to Majora only through its death mask. Implicitly, like Darmani and Mikau and the Deku Butler’s Son, Majora is dead. Majora is also immensely powerful, and was used by others to curse their enemies.
Unable to rest or be at peace, Majora has tumbled through time. Its current host is Skull Kid, an innocent child from the woods who was driven by loneliness. Skull Kid has fairy companions, and also, feels that he was abandoned by his friends, because they departed to the corners of the world to become divine pillars protecting from harm. They are only reunited in event of catastrophe.
All of these things are traits of Ocarina of Time Link, actually. He was also, originally, a child from the woods; we can figure he was almost definitely lonely when everyone in his society had a fairy except him, when he was actually a hylian among kokiri and lacked words to articulate why he felt unlike others; Saria was kind to him but most others are at best indifferent and at worst, Mido. Much is made in OoT that he cannot be with Saria and this becomes true no matter where he goes; he can’t be with Ruto, or Darunia, or Impa, or Nabooru, or Rauru. Just about anyone who’s notably kind to him perishes or ascends to become a sage. He is not like them.
And Link is told that there is this specialness, this thing that is beyond him and older than him, but it becomes core to his identity until after a while it’s the only thing anyone sees: the role of the Hero.
“But Clockie,” you might say, “the hero is a good thing, and Majora was used to curse others!”
To which I say: in Wind Waker, The Soul of The Hero is explicitly and repeatedly tied to the wind. His legend survives ‘on the wind’s breath’. Link is given a powerful royal artifact, that the king of Hyrule used to command the wind.
And at the very end of Wind Waker, Ganondorf talks about the wind. He lays it out as plainly as possible that part of what he coveted in Hyrule was that the wind favored it. The winds over Hyrule bring it peace and prosperity. That same wind, over Ganondorf’s world, brings death and destruction. This is... never argued with. In fact, at the very end of Wind Waker, as Ganondorf lays dying at the hands of the hero yet again, he cracks a bitter smirk and says that the wind is blowing.
To the civilization that profited from Majora’s Mask, it probably seemed like a blessing until it became impossible to contain. While we never hear about the hero going rogue or turning on the people around him, it is notable that Wind Waker’s incarnation of the hero’s myth in particular features people cursing the hero’s absence. Just like with Majora, the prosperity given by the Hero fails.
It’s also notable that as a villain, Skull Kid seems to do an awful lot of sidequests, doesn’t he? He messes with others’ trivial affairs quite a bit.
So, I think that Majora, in Majora’s Mask, is almost a form of Dark Link- he embodies things Link fears about himself and the hero’s role.
And then there’s the other entity- the Fierce Deity.
The Fierce Deity, unlike Majora, is completely erased from history. We do not know who or what they are.
We know that they are dead, because they’re a mask.
We know Link only gains access to them if he faces the questions of the moon children- questions that seem to be interrogating both Link’s feelings, and the nature of the Hero, but one in particular involves asking Link if that’s really his face.
The Fierce Deity is otherwise never seen in Hyrule’s pantheon. Their fallen regalia surfaces on rare occasions.
They are stated to have overwhelming dark power, and seem only willing to manifest through the mask to fight a great enemy. And unlike any other spirit Link connects with in Majora’s Mask, they never speak.
The mask has an uncanny resemblance to Link.
I think that Majora’s Mask is a point where Link is accessing his precursor.
I think that in the original god war, there was a third contender.
Hylia, Demise, and Majora.
Majora, the Fierce Deity, presenting as neither a goddess nor a demon king, an entity that aligned themselves with mortals and brought prosperity and security to them. A creature of dark power, who nonetheless became known as a Hero.
At some point during the war, Majora aligned themselves with Hylia. They may have had their own designs on the triforce. They may have seen her as the lesser of two evils. After all, compared to Demise, Hylia just wants to control people; she doesn’t want to crush them.
But the key distinction here is, Majora did not love Hylia. If they may have, they did not let this stop them from seeing her as almost as much of a problem as Demise. They would bring her prosperity, but only up to a point. Then, they would part ways.
Majora faces Demise. Demise is pleased to have an opponent, and facilitates Majora, perhaps far more than he should have.
Demise crushes Majora, but not without sustaining serious injuries.
Majora dies; mortals and smaller spirits grieve the loss of their hero. A death mask may or may not be forged in their likeness.
The stalemate is broken; a weakened Demise is no match for Hylia. She embeds him in the sealed grounds, and becomes the decisive victor and remaining survivor. The die is cast; from this point onward, the existence of Hyrule as the dominant land and the worship of the golden gods becoming synonymous with the worship of Hylia has its foundations here.
But Demise isn’t gone; he’s a god. He’s a little hard to kill, if he wants to stick around. And Majora does not want to stick around; and forcing them to will almost certainly exacerbate their connection.
If only, Hylia thinks, there was a useful way to contain all that was important about Majora- their valor and great strength- in a form that was more pliant. She has worshippers. She has the mortal entities that Majora once cared for.
That’s right. Majora cares about mortals, don’t they? They fought to save and protect others. A Majora who doesn’t remember that they lived wild and disobedient, a Majora whose uncanny power of twilight is tempered and weakened, a Majora who grew up among Hylia’s chosen people so as to carefully control who he gets attached to, and to ensure among those attachments, there is a friend- a dear friend, a beloved friend- who he will fight to stay close to, no matter what.
Who is not the entity that they once distrusted, but who will, predictably and perfectly, act as a continuation of that entity’s will, and because her love is real, she will be so, so sorry about it, and hurting so much, that it’s impossible he would ever betray her.
How many times is Link in essence, told to wake up, often by a manifestation of Zelda?
#Legend of Zelda#readmore#tl;dr hot take#Zelda is the demigod Incarnation of a lovecraftian deep one#who did not understand that in creating Zelda she was creating an entity separate from herself#and thus arranged everything to expect Zelda to continue to carry on Hylia's Perfect Work forever#Ganondorf is the bearer of Demise's curse that he was not born into but caught like a parasite and it chews on him#and because he is That Motherfucker; Bespoke And Inimitable#Ganondorf has made an entire career out of stealing Demise's shit in response without even fully being able to know who and what Demise was#because Demise is dead#LINK THOUGH. Link is possessed#Link is a Nice Young Lad who is super turbo possessed by a half-conscious entity#who was betrayed and trapped to be here#and it's super fucking pissed but there's not enough of it there to fully assert most of the time#this nice reasonable young man has a well in his soul that goes straight to the core of the earth and the screams of the damned wrathful god#echo all the way up

What are some of your favorite video games?
Oo a personal question nice. Well for starters my favourite game series has always been The Legend Of Zelda :) My dad used to play OOT when I was a kid and if I heard him playing I'd go storming to his room and he'd let me run around Hyrule field on Epona XD When I was about 12 I received my first Zelda game - Twilight Princess for the wii and that's the first I finished fully. From that I've played Skyward Sword, Ocarina Of Time (which was nostalgic since I played it myself then) Majora's Mask, Wind Waker, Link To The Past, Breath Of The Wild and Link's Awakening remastered. Excited for BOTW 2 this year hopefully! I have 2 of the Hyrule Warriors as well but not completed either.
Apart from that, I have a small steam library which you can see on my desktop (along with other random things)
Tbh I haven't played as much of Subnautica or King Of Seas as I'd have liked but uh I'll get to it. Probably.
I ADORE tycoon games and my absolute shining star of this library is Planet Zoo which I have probably around 300 hours on now XD I cannot recommend that game enough, sure it's taken a lot of money off me but it's worth it because as an animal obsessed kid who loved basic zoo building games I always wanted a more realistic game just like it and the graphics are stunning!
And then there's everything else lying around like old childhood wii games (Dogz and Catz were my childhood) Pokemon mystery dungeon which I have the original DS of but also the Switch vers which is much improved, and just old DSI games which still has pics of me on it from like ... 2009 yikes, kind of funny to look back on as a adult) But yeah, I love talking about games!

The sun was beginning to rise by the time he left the Cuddly Critters. Just like the night was slowly seeping away, so did the safety it brought with it. The faint illusion of safety shattered as Hades walked through the Zoo alone, the glass shard spotted with red safely tucked in his pants pocket where he could reach it quickly if needed. He was tense as he walked down the path, but he was alone. No one came out to stab him or attack him or even just to scare him. It was peaceful, but he had a strange feeling about the day.
He followed the train tracks for a little while, passing by the Sand Dollar Cove, before his eyes caught sight of a figure in the distance. He furrowed his brows, tension running along his spine. He walked a few more steps before he realized that the person was Persephone, laden with what seemed to be bandages and, oh, weapons. His brows shot skywards as he got closer.
“You don't look good,” he said, in lieu of a greeting. “What did you do?” It was hard not to feel worried, even though she’d probably punch him in the face for it. But if there was a place to worry, it was here. Where every misstep could mean a premature death. Hades didn’t know what he’d do if she died and he only found out about it because of her picture in the sky. There’d already been eight that night, there didn’t have to be a ninth yet.
