I see your 'Sky has asthma and that's why he can't run', and I raise you: Sky has Inappropriate Sinus Tachycardia, and that's why he can't run.

Now, before you run away because you've never even heard of IST, hear me out. (If you don't know the condition, it's a dysautonomic heart condition vaguely similar to POTS, just without the low blood pressure.)

We all know Sky's lived above the clouds with minimal oxygen levels his entire life, as have most of his decedents, so it wouldn't make sense for him to have shitty lungs, right? That's where IST comes in. See, it's not related in the slightest to physical health or upbringing, it's just a genetic thing that is due to your sinus being a bit funky. It's also not life threatening, so that takes away from Skyloft needing to have non-canonical advanced medical procedures. IST's main symptom is that it severely decreases your stamina by making your heart race and you become extremely out of breath, often meaning you have to stop and wait for a bit for your heart to calm down.

Sound familiar? Yeah, I thought so too.

However, and here's the real seller- unlike asthma, you can just power through and not die. It really, really sucks, but this ability is quite the gamebreaker for me when you think about all of the extreme physical tasks Sky has completed in game, not to mention his swordplay, that if he had exercise induced asthma would've very likely set off an attack. With IST tho, yes it would feel like you were dying, but it is absolutely be possible to just power through your symptoms and have no adverse effects except from your extreme discomfort and fatigue afterwards.

TLDR: Sky has Inappropriate Sinus Tachycardia because it fits him so much better than asthma, as someone who has both asthma and IST. And no, this isn't just me projecting my hyper specific heart condition onto one of my favourite characters, what do you mean....

the infamous potlid incident

Ever since I saw Daruk's diary I can't stop thinking about this scene in my head. A literal pot lid got Link appointed to be Zelda's guard.....

Impa probably scampers over to check on Zelda and Link uses that moment to crabwalk away before he can make a bigger fool of himself😂

Haircut

This is loosely based off of a true story. My mom is a pretty traditional woman and prefers longer hair on women. I always wanted to keep my hair long, but during my 20th year when I was lounging around wasting my life away, I kept feeling like I wanted to cut my hair. Just to try it out. I kept thinking it’d be in the future but it was something I secretly wanted to do at that moment. But I knew my mom didn’t want that cuz she makes it very clear that she loves longer hair. Well one day, when my oldest sister was trimming my mom’s hair, she suddenly was like “do you want to cut your hair?” And I was shocked that SHE was the one to suggest it. But I said yes and got my hair cut right then and there! It’s a moment that really stuck with me and a moment where my mom very clearly understood what I wanted despite me not wanting to talk about it. So I thought it’d fit for Zelda and Rhoam.

After the calamity, Rhoam has been slowly trying to mend their relationship (I feel like he should be the one responsible to do so). They barely saw each other during the calamity and when they did it was never a good interaction. Rhoam learned a lot on the great plateau and was humbled significantly, and he stopped thinking like a king and more like a father. This moment was a big step for their healing relationship, and though Rhoam isn’t perfect, he’s trying to change himself for his daughter. He wants to be better. He wants to be a better father.

These two have such a fascinating dynamic that I really want to explore more so I thought I’d doodle this real quick and I had fun with it! In a way, they’re cutting the past and moving on to a new future, leaving behind the pain and heartache they had before: the pain of the queen dying, the pain and stress of the calamity, and the pain of the relationship between them. They want to move on. And again, they’re not perfect. They’ll definitely have moments, but it’s much better than before.

This is a pretty personal comic but I like it a lot :)

Honestly bizarre that tomatoes get all the flack for “not being a vegetable” because they're technically a fruit when:

A) There are a ton of fruits that get categorised as vegetables. Like this also applies to pumpkins, squashes and cucumbers.

B) The fucking mushrooms are standing there at the back of the crowd in this witch trial, trying to look inconspicuous because they somehow got into the vegetable club with no fucking controversy despite the fact that they're not even plants.
