Hi Shadow

Keep the compliments comin tho

A Package Deal (Do Not Separate)

a memory resurfaces

I doubt the traitor even still wears 'em... not that I'd care either way.

green canonically in text and shown to our faces is a complex character capable of showing a strong sense of justice, anger, and pettiness all while being incredibly compassionate and sympathetic and trusting and understanding and y'all are SLEEEPING

[fourshords]

and he straight up just fucking forgets he needs the royal jewels for the tower of winds we praise a dumbass

[fourshords]

oh and on that note the "he's not 'just link" which is true, but ALSO everyone sleeps on link being basic when in fact he is very complex cause he's literally all 4 of them combined and it's shown very clearly and green does not express all the traits that link has.

Green isn't as egotistical as link cause link has blue in him. Green isn't as sweet as link because link has red in him. Green isn't as aloof as link cause link has vio in him. They use different "I" pronouns in japanese scans.

Green will take charge when he feels like it's necessary or feels strongly about something (aka battle with vio) but he doesn't believe he knows better than others nor does he impose his will on others. He listens to peoples problems (erune) and understands others well (when he realized vio was on their side) but also he's literally a child and can get frustrated and forgetful

Green is a good character and already very complex. So is link, actually, cause he's literally all 4 of them in one person. Thanks for listening to my ted talk

Where did you get your earring from? Who pierced your ear??

you've unlocked a memory

Concept sketches for a swap AU where Shadow is the Prince of Hyrule and Zelda is his knight and the colors are demons released from the Four Sword that reflect all of the parts of Zelda she doesn’t like about herself and also Zelda is transmasc and slowly realizes it throughout the quest to save Shadow, and then she and Shadow kiss or something

What's your favourite ability of yours? (Ex: shapeshifting, flying, intangibility, etc). And was it something you had to master or did you just know instinctively how to use it? 🤔

Never really had'ta think about using my abilities. I guess shapeshifting into somethin' that ain't Link took a lil' extra time to master, but it wasn't too hard. But I've always been one'a the best at all the shadow abilities!

Though, my powers ain't as strong as they used ta be...

[ask-linksshadow]

Remember when you couldn‘t come up with anything you like about yourself? (Relatable btw big mood) Has that changed in the meantime? Alternatively, anything you hate least about yourself?

Ain't really somethin' I think about that much, I dunno.

Hmmmm. Shadow forgetting post-resurrection that he‘s not just fading in and out of the environment anymore. Shadow who walks into doors and posts because he forgets he has flesh and skin now. Shadow who forgets to eat and sleep because he never needed it before. Shadow who forgets he‘s alive, because he struggled to see himself as alive before his death. Shadow who stills and stares like a statue before remembering that he can just approach whoever he‘s watching. Shadow who moves weirdly, like he‘s only now learning the minutiae of fine motor skills. Shadow that doesn‘t yet know what the difference is between being a living thing and being the imitation of one.

Unintentionally eerie Shadow <3

Found any 24 hour amusement parks yet?

They wouldn’t wanna encourage shadows an' darkfolk out to have fun.

[ask-linksshadow]

Do you have any favourite or least favourite guys/creatures to work with? Like, who's the most chill to hang out with vs who makes you wanna tear your hair out?

Ever since Death Mountain was abandoned, there ain't many other creatures 'round here 'cept me. I've seen a couple'a Hinoxes in the forest area, but they're idiots.

My precious eye rock pets are much better listeners anyways.

[entouragelvr75]

love the forest scene in the manga because in my head it sorta implies shadow was following around vio for a while waiting for the opportunity to dramatically introduce himself?? lmao

also mainly wanted to redraw/reimagine this linktober post 👍

I had hw to make an animated loop so once again I made it an excuse to draw fanart 🫶
