“I know you’re closed bestie but I’m just sending this in before I forget it in my goldfish brain. I have a particular classmate in my geology courses that takes every opportunity they can to work with me, and he basically doesn’t do his own work and makes me teach him things even when I don’t understand. I’ve have to talk to professors about him before, and I thought he’d finally leave me alone and then BAM the fothermucker was back at it again!! I get so drained from working with him, and it honestly ruins my day. But I can’t tell him no or else I look like the bitch.
How would Bazz/Sidon/Ledo/literally anyone defend their sweetheart from this behavior when they noticed?” - @rocklover719
you and @bertie-bats are literally keeping my blog alive. not because of the requests, but because you both motivate me to write stuff lmaooooo (i have 0 drive to do anything right now, so your presence in my inbox is greatly appreciated)
i only did zora's for this one, and i wanted to add more, but my brain is literal mush rn. i made Bazz's the longest though, just for you :)
i hope you enjoy :)
(p.s.: i’ll kick someone’s ass if i need to. i’m willing to make the 24+ hour cross country drive <3)
Sidon
he listens so intently as you vent
and he has half a mind to go talk to this person for you
but he knows it would be best if you did it yourself
“Y/n… if you come off in a way that seems… bitchy… then that’s his problem.”
he’d do his best to make you feel better
“You can do it. I believe in you.”
but of course he’s coming with you
because he wants to be there for emotional support
Bazz
as soon as you begin to vent, he’s ready to kick someone’s ass
and you have to sternly tell him no
“Y/n…”
“Bazz…”
“What? He’s a grown adult. He should know how to behave and that his actions have consequences. Let. Me. Handle. It.”
he’d sneak into class with you and watch everything unfold, watching how this guy weasels his way into your space and practically steals your work
and as class ends, he’d walk up to the both of you, pulling this guy to the side
“May I speak to you for a moment?”
you know shit’s about to get real
“I don’t really appreciate how you’re using y/n’s knowledge for your own benefit.”
you can hear them from just around the corner
“It’s uncomfortable to watch, and I can’t even begin imagine how [they] feel. Please stop, or you’ll be seeing more of me.”
he’d come find you after, walking with you to wherever you needed to be next
“If he tries that again, let me know.”
Rivan
this whole conversation is ‘I’m not listening as your partner. I’m listening as your bff.’
“Omg he did wHAT? That’s CRAZY!”
he actually lets you vent without trying to solve your problems
being a single dad has taught him a few things
“I think someone has a crush on you. Oooh!”
but he’ll definitely ask if you need him to step in
“But in all seriousness, if you need me to do something about it, you know I will.”
eventually, Rivan would sneak into your class
and instead of talking to the guy about the situation…
he’d give him a taste of his own medicine
Rivan would practically beg this guy to work with him, claiming to be a new student that got transferred in late
and you can bet after that, this guy will never speak to you again
Ledo
Ledo is 100000% taking this class with you
so he knows exactly how everything plays out
after class he’d pull you aside, making sure you’re out of ears reach from this guy
“Next time that asshole tries to pull that stunt, say you’ve promised to work with me.”
he’d sit next to you every day after that
and he’d be sure to give that guy dirty looks when you’re not looking
Torfeau
you vent ONE TIME
just once
that’s all it takes for Torfeau to ‘discuss the situation’ with him
Big thanks to @thezoraprince / @hey-llison for inspiring me to write this! I don’t make much content but if you’re looking for more Zora content, please check out their blog!! (I’m literally constantly sending them asks lmao)

Ledo is definitely outspoken and has ambition. I mean, who else calls out to a stranger from a river?
He is also a very disciplined Individual, as we can see from how highly he speaks about Fronk and Dento. Ledo is someone who takes respect seriously, and is a hard worker by nature.
He has a humorous side to him! He has so many running jokes he likes to involve you in. Anytime he counts something around you he raises his voice and goes “AND A OOOOONEE, AND A TWOOOO… THREEEE..” and so on. He does this just to make you giggle or roll your eyes, because he finds it cute when you give him even the slightest reaction.
Ledo is a craftsman by nature, and as such he would enjoy giving you things he makes.
As he hones his skills taught by Dento, he would practice making different intricate things such as jewelry or small luminous stone carvings when he isn’t working on any big projects for the domain. He would gift these items to you, hoping you’d like them. He might be a bit embarrassed over the slight flaws, maybe even going as far as to apologize and point them out to you. Of course, you’d hardly notice them and you don’t care if there are little flaws here and there because…well, he made this for you! Why wouldn’t you love it?
He would definitely be shy over those little imperfections but hearing your praise would make him 10x more motivated to keep harnessing his craft. In fact, you can bet your tail fins that this Zora is already sketching out each and every anniversary and holiday gift he has in mind just be BE SURE it will be perfect when the time comes!
He would definitely appreciate your company while he works. Some stonework is very tedious, but just having you sitting by him and watching him makes him enjoy the process even more. You two would share light conversation and maybe hum a song together. Bring him some lunch on the job and this Zora would be head over fins for you in a heartbeat!
As every Zora does, he loves to swim. Especially with you. I feel he would casually laze around the rivers with you, floating. Maybe some small splash wars, or observing local rock formations. I could also see him hiding in any river weed or foliage just to mess with you, as his green scales camouflage him. His favorite game is to hide against foliage and see if you can spot him. His golden eyes watching as you look around yourself and calling out to him, as he tries not to laugh.
Ledo is definitely a geology guy. Don’t even look at me and say he isn’t! He would gift you rocks he finds interesting, especially smooth river stones. Perhaps he would try to find one that matches your outfit or hair color, even eye color if he can find it! It’s definitely his way of trying to woo you subtly.
I feel Ledo is an affectionate Zora, and wouldn’t mind some appropriate PDA. Maybe not around Dento, as Ledo would try his best to be as respectful as possible… but this guy would love holding your hand whenever he can.
Chances are, unless you are Zora, Gerudo, or Goron (or maybe a tall Rito), you are shorter than him. And he will definitely tease you about that now and then. He just thinks its cute, even if you are a tall person. Zora appear to be at least 7 feet to me, so even if you are a tall human or hylian…. You’re short bro. He wouldn’t take it too far though, just enough to get a cute pout out of you.
Ledo seems like the type of person who handles arguments very well. He would do his best to communicate calmly, but if things escalate he is quick to back away and put a pin in it. He doesn’t want to yell or get angry, especially at you. He would want his space, maybe seeking out Dento or Fronk for some relationship advice. I could see him giving you the silent treatment in extreme cases, but only because he doesn’t know how to speak to you without the argument getting worse and he doesn’t want to snap and say something he doesn’t mean. Eventually, he’d come around and ask to talk to you privately. With most Zora, communication and honesty is important. He knows every sea has its storms, and he makes the best effort he can to work with you to solve any problems.
I feel like the main thing that would really be a deal breaker for him is if you disrespected his craft or his mentors. He had so much respect for his Master Dento, and his senior apprentice Fronk. If you were to talk badly about them, he would not let that slide.
Overall, dating Ledo would be fun, respectful, and peaceful. But it would definitely have its moments of mirth and adventure!
“Ledo would encourage my passion for geology. Tell me that man WOULDNT get me rocks” - @rocklover719
this has been sitting in my notes for a LONG TIME and i forgot about it until i went to add more requests... oops!
there was an entire conversation that went with this statement, simply because we love Ledo in this house. Rocky and i share a lot of thoughts on our beloved Zoras, and i love that we do. i always want to talk about them <3
so here’s a little something something :)
y/n - your name
there was no denying it
you’re crushing
and you’re crushing HARD
Ledo’s always caught your eye
and you have to admit that this work in the domain is exquisite
each time you pass by him, you try not to stare
and every time, he greets you with a sing-songy “Hello, y/n!”
it makes you blush
you’ve been trying to work up the courage to bring him the many Luminous Stones you’ve found
but it’s proving difficult from your nerves
‘Maybe I’ll take these soon…’
the day comes
you finally haul LOADS of luminous stone to Ledo
“Hello, y/—”
his jaw drops
“Hi… I brought these for you.”
“I—”
he stutters for a moment, trying to find the right words
“You… you brought these… for me?”
and you nod with a slight smile, not making eye contact with the green Zora
“Wow… ummm, thank you!”
he doesn’t bother counting them like he usually does when someone brings him stones
he just smiles
and wow you love his smile
“Oh!”
he reaches into his tool bag and pulls out the prettiest diamond you’ve ever seen
kneeling down, he grabs your hand and places it gently into your palm
“It’s not much, but uhh… Thank you, y/n.”
you can see his cheeks turning a pale shade of pink
but yours are bright red
‘A… a diamond?’
“What is it, y/n? Is something the matter?”
you look at Ledo with wide eyes
“Ummm…”
he cocks his head to the side, a little confused as to why you’re this nervous
“Umm, for Hylians, giving or receiving a diamond, especially diamond jewelry is considered a very romantic act.”
“Really?”
he’s fascinated by this bit of information
“Yeah. It’s mainly…”
he leans in closer
“It mainly signifies a proposal.”
it takes him a moment to register what you’ve said
but when it does, he quickly let’s go of your hand
“Oh, I— umm…”
his cheeks are as red as yours now
you’re both standing in the domain’s center, embarrassed as can be
you give a nod and a shy smile to Ledo before turning to leave
but…
“Hey, y/n?”
you turn around once again
“Would you want to get dinner sometime?”
your face lights up with excitement
“I know this is… umm… awkward, but I’ve been wanting to ask for a while, and… you know, this probably wasn’t the best ti—”
“I’d love to.”
his smile returns
and oh how precious it is
“Really?”
and you nod
“Really!”
you head home with the biggest smile
‘Ledo… likes me! He likes me!’
and you can’t wait for the awkward conversations to come
