LOVE☆STRUCK
[zelda] ACTUALLY JK DISTRACTS MYSELF FOR A MOMENT BECAUSE I'M GONNA TALK ABOUT HOW MUCH I LOVE ZELDA FOR THE FIRST TIME IN A [checks watch] 2ISH YEARS
LOVE☆STRUCK
so like do you ever have those people in your lives that Have to be the Biggest Fan of a thing, a Bigger Fan than You they are the Ultimate Fan?
LOVE☆STRUCK
well i hate those people, because it 80% of the time comes down to "how much merch/games have you been able to buy??" and poor people don't get to be a part of that
LOVE☆STRUCK
and one of my biggest hyperfixations is The Legend of Zelda and Link and specifically WINDWAKER and the windwaker series and I L O V E it I LOVE Zelda and one of the biggest things I love about Zelda is sharing it with people that love Zelda
LOVE☆STRUCK
EXCEPT
LOVE☆STRUCK
that Jaq was one of those Biggest Fans people
LOVE☆STRUCK
and it's never that they ever SAY that they're the Biggest Fan but every time you talk about something you like about it they ahve to like. compete with you
siwas ✨
but that;s so tiring...
LOVE☆STRUCK
and I love Zelda and will not be driven into hating Zelda by Obnoxious Fanatics, I modeled my life around Link, he is my biggest role model and the Hero I Want To Be
LOVE☆STRUCK
so i just
LOVE☆STRUCK
stopped
LOVE☆STRUCK
talking
LOVE☆STRUCK
about Zelda
LOVE☆STRUCK
for as long as we lived with Jaq
LOVE☆STRUCK
and now you know I LOVE THE SHIT OUT OF ZELDA, i have played SO MANY GAMES but haven't been able to catch up on the newest installments like Link's Awakening and Hyrule Warriors
LOVE☆STRUCK
and it makes me sad that I have been avoiding them all just so I wouldn't have to compete!
LOVE☆STRUCK
(Jaq has like one of the most popular TLoZ fanfics on Ao3 too, so like, they do have SOME reason to be all up in their head, but like???)
LOVE☆STRUCK
anyway, i just had to get that out
LOVE☆STRUCK
I LOVE ZELDA AND AM TOTALLY LINK KIN (/J) BUT I STAN DOUBLES AND TOTALLY WANT TO TALK ABOUT ZELDA AT ANY TIME
siwas ✨
LUC. i too am a huge fan of Zelda. I even have a TP Link journal
siwas ✨
Link is good
LOVE☆STRUCK
i have a WW link journal!!
LOVE☆STRUCK
playing Link is so much fun
LOVE☆STRUCK
he's a good guy!!!
siwas ✨
he iiiiis
siwas ✨
I do still love playing BotW Zelda the most, but sometimes I just have to play Link
Haze Arquebus
i got ones for ruto, malon, darunia, and urbosa and...a fuckin joke account for the link in the first two starbomb zelda rap videos,
siwas ✨
You call yell at me about Zelda things anytime. It's a very important game series in my life
LOVE☆STRUCK
i am not at all surprised by your picks wing and they are very good
LOVE☆STRUCK
i definitely almost typed "by your pinks, wig"
Haze Arquebus
slkdjfsljdf
LOVE☆STRUCK
it's such an important game!! and I LIKE when other people love it this much like, dang. it has touched so many people
ᴍᴇʀʟɪɴ.
ZELDA GANG RISE UP
ᴍᴇʀʟɪɴ.
all i rp is fi bc i love her but ZELDA TIME IS NOW
wefeelspooky

siwas ✨
i got my mom into the game, so for like a long while she was the one i screamed about zelda with
LOVE☆STRUCK
ZELDA TIME IS NOW AND ALL CHARACTERS ARE VALID
Haze Arquebus
god i've been thinking of replaying link's awakening since it's just so cozy
Haze Arquebus
even if it do gutpunch
LOVE☆STRUCK
i'm gonna have to try it some day, even though i'm spoiled for it already i like stories that like. still get ya even when you know how they'll end
Haze Arquebus

Haze Arquebus
lay down on the floor and be sad listening to ballad of the wind fish
ʜᴜᴍʙᴇʀɢᴇʀ 🍔
I HATE.... THOSE KINDS OF PEOPLE.....
𝔪𝔢𝔪𝔢𝔫𝔱𝔬💀𝔪𝔬𝔯𝔞𝔶
LOVE YOU SOME ZELDA
𝔪𝔢𝔪𝔢𝔫𝔱𝔬💀𝔪𝔬𝔯𝔞𝔶
ZELDA IS FOR ALL
ʜᴜᴍʙᴇʀɢᴇʀ 🍔
but also LOVE THAT ZELDA
LOVE☆STRUCK
IT'S REALLY ANNOYING WHEN FOLKS ARE LIKE THAT
LOVE☆STRUCK
like damn who are you going to gush excitedly with over specific parts
LOVE☆STRUCK
like the part where WW Link supposedly isn't the reincarnation of the previous Link and still takes on the responsibility of saving the world because Someone Has to Do It and He has the Power and His Sister Lives Here and he just DOES IT
LOVE☆STRUCK
and how that's SUPER HEROIC
𝔪𝔢𝔪𝔢𝔫𝔱𝔬💀𝔪𝔬𝔯𝔞𝔶
look sometimes the blood of the hero runs thin
𝔪𝔢𝔪𝔢𝔫𝔱𝔬💀𝔪𝔬𝔯𝔞𝔶
and you just gotta
𝔪𝔢𝔪𝔢𝔫𝔱𝔬💀𝔪𝔬𝔯𝔞𝔶
do the thing
LOVE☆STRUCK
exactly!! and how stinkin cool is that!!!
𝔪𝔢𝔪𝔢𝔫𝔱𝔬💀𝔪𝔬𝔯𝔞𝔶
BUT ALSO I love that the role of the Hero isn't completely linked (haha) to blood!!
𝔪𝔢𝔪𝔢𝔫𝔱𝔬💀𝔪𝔬𝔯𝔞𝔶
IT IS THEY WHO IS BRAVEST AND MOST COURAGEOUS IN THE FACE OF PERIL
𝔪𝔢𝔪𝔢𝔫𝔱𝔬💀𝔪𝔬𝔯𝔞𝔶
triforce of courage be like "this one is mine"
LOVE☆STRUCK
YES!!
LOVE☆STRUCK

triska
and gatekeeping assholes are the wooooorrrrssstttt
LOVE☆STRUCK
HOLDS UR HAND
LOVE☆STRUCK
sheik is good goals
triska
my fav was watching straight girl yaoi fans fight with straight guys about whether sheik was a total body shapeshift or just zelda binding
triska
bc we HAVE TO KNOW so we can ship Him with Link, or determine that it's Not Gay To Be Into Her
triska
w me in the bg like literally who cares, sheik hot
LOVE☆STRUCK
HONESTLY LIKE SHUT UP IT'S HOT EITHER WAY sheik hot
triska
i was also very in love with twilight princess zelda specifically
LOVE☆STRUCK
she was cool as shit
triska
we stan a queen ready to throw the fuck down with shadow demons
LOVE☆STRUCK
absolutely
triska
anyway yes my whole house is trans/nb and both my more masc leaning bros are like "I WANTED TO BE LINK SO BAD!!!"
triska
and i recall reading somewhere that link is specifically androgynous so players of any identity can project and identify w him
triska
so Fuck Yeah, Zelda Good
triska
also: link's awakening is one of my top fav zelda games
triska
I will stream it sometime
LOVE☆STRUCK
I'LL DEF WATCH
LOVE☆STRUCK
also yes it's true!!! i read that as well
мαи∂α
the new hyrule warriors game is legit, I really enjoyed the story in it
мαи∂α

LOVE☆STRUCK
aged clam tea....
LOVE☆STRUCK

LOVE☆STRUCK
it isnt as portable but the game is just the same on wii u!
ᴢᴀᴄᴋ.
I also do not have a wii u, so... it'd still mean buying a whole console
ᴢᴀᴄᴋ.
I'll sit on it a while longer!

The game seems lovely, in any case
ᴢᴀᴄᴋ.

LOVE☆STRUCK
