“Hi, sorry for bothering you if you're not taking/doing requests rn
I have yet to see anything like this, but I wanna see headcanons for a few of the legends of Zelda breath of the wild characters (Link, Zelda, Sidon, Ganon, anyone really) having passed out in the middle of the desert only to wake up in the shade of a pretty(and/or)handsome traveling belly dancer readers caravan and how they feel to having reader take care of them until the over heating goes away, would they refuse the help? Would they accept it? I'm curious what you think.” - anon
hi hi!!! first of all, you're NEVER bothering me! ngl, i generally keep requests for later if i like them, but thankfully, they're open!! secondly, heat exhaustion is ROUGH. speaking from experience, it’s one of the worst feelings imo. and in your list, the only one i could imagine not experiencing it on the extreme side would be Ganon (simply because he is a Gerudo and would have the equipment and be acclimated to this environment (and he’s a king, so you bet he’s got high security at all times)). but i do think it’d be fun to add him onto this list. so i will :)
let’s dive in! (please don’t hate me for Revali’s i promise i love him)
Link
wouldn’t really be that surprised
he’s woken up in so many different places that he probably just expects it now
but he’s grateful
he’d notice your clothing and be interested in every detail (probably trying to figure out if there’s any properties to help you withstand the heat)
will inevitably go back to sleep for several hours
Zelda
thanks you 1000000+ times
and absolutely lets you know how attractive you are (not flirtatiously, she’s just an extrovert)
would invite you to the castle for a performance and a meal
asks about the history of your trade and lifestyle
will yap to you forever and forget time exists
Sidon
why is this man in the desert he’s a fish?
he’d be beyond thankful
is offering his life
will ultimately deplete your water supply
invites you to Zora’s Domain for a performance and an endless supply of water (he’s embarrassed fr)
Revali
would probably rather die than receive help tbh
but the shade feels nice
so he’s SAT
might warm up to you
might not
will probably complain the entire time
Bazz
again… why is this man in the desert (unwillingly at that)
accepts reluctantly
but if you tell ANYONE…
he’ll be really upset
will not willingly deplete your water supply
would be more relaxed if you weren’t a stranger
embarrassed af
Rivan
the only zora i could see in the desert
is thanking you nonstop
and probably trying to give you gifts in return
would tell you his whole life story (and his daughter’s)
and if you ever go to Zora’s Domain, he’ll be there, greeting you with the biggest smile
Ganon
thanks you
and definitely means it… at first, at least
he has a way with his words
he’s prideful to say the least
and not only will he invite you to perform in Gerudo Town
but he’ll also ask you to join him in the ‘right side of history’ (in a very chill, nonchalant way)
“I can give you a tender one here!
So I’ve got arthritis and circulation issues- I get cyanosis and stiff joints and all that fun stuff at the ripe old age of 24. But I used to be a total athlete! BUMMER, I know.
How about some headcanons on how Bazz (and others if you’re up to it!!) handles a partner like that? Maybe he uses that military first aid training a lot, or something. Definitely gets a heart attack anytime I trip for sure lmao” - @rocklover719
i could go on and on about my chronic pain and circulation issues, so i definitely feel you on this. i hope this winter is treating you well, because this cold is not it for me.
had to add in Sidon and Rivan, so they're a bit on the shorter side. but i hope you enjoy! <3
SIDON
he’s been reminded countless times
but that still doesn’t make it any easier
there’s days where you feel fine
on top of the world even
but on those days where you’re just not at 100%
god, he just wants to love on you
you can bet he’s gonna give you all the snuggles he can
and the encouragement and praise will be endless
you need a snack/beverage?
he’s on it
a massage?
anything to help you feel better
light walks around the domain (or at least around his king suite)
and perhaps some swimming if the weather allows
he just wants his sweet s/o to feel better
BAZZ
it’s not unusual for him to see you going through a small flare up
and a lot of the time, if you’re able to handle things on your own, he’ll let you
unless it’s heavy lifting or opening things (because he knows all too well you’ll need a little assistance)
or if you specifically ask
but on days where it’s unbearable…
you bet he’s taking care of you
he’ll push his whole day aside to make sure you’re doing okay
he’ll draw you a hot bath
give you an incredible massage
and you should absolutely expect a light physical therapy session at some point
he’s so soft with you
and he listens intently if you have anything to say
he’s always good at going at your pace
but now even more so
his main goal is make everything feel normal for you
RIVAN
Rivan’s a love bug
so snuggles are already a given
he’s got a hot bath for you ready to go
and he’s cleaning/doing house work while you relax
he’s a great listener
so when you need to talk about the pain you’re feeling, he’s all ears
he’ll encourage a light walk if you’re up for it
maybe some yoga
lots of sweet words
but more importantly, he’s still as silly as ever
number one hype man for sure
and will absolutely make the best of the situation
who knew you could make a game out of wrist exercises?
out of affection, he’ll plant light kisses wherever hurts
“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
HC / writing prompt for whenever you're ready <3
Oranges : I love the thought behind your partner peeling an orange for you. It's simple, sweet, and a little poetic. I think your HCs for our favorite fish boys peeling our oranges would just be perfect!
( I like to think that sense Sidon is so big, he would have a terrible time trying to peel oranges, so he would peel you a grapefruit instead thinking they're basically the same thing, lol )
This prompt can obviously be for anyone, but I'd love to see Sidon and Rivan for myself, and Bazz for Rocky ofc. <3” - @bertie-bats
firstly, i want to say that citrus is toxic to fish, so i’m making that somewhat apply here. i have to :’) i only learned that because i now have a fish who is my whole world <3
anyway, i hope you enjoy!! (i think Rivan's is my favorite lmaooo)
SIDON
big hands and small orange do not mix well
he tries and tries and tries
but every time ends up in a pulpy mess
he’s at the market one day and sees a grapefruit
he thinks ‘…big orange?!’
definitely buys it for you
he forgets to put something over his hands when peeling it
so his fingers start to tingle
but it’s worth it for you
he’ll bring it to you with a smile on his face
not a single negative thought on his mind
“… Sidon, this is not an orange…”
his eyes go wide
“What? But- but I thought…”
you just giggle
i mean
how can you not?
“It’s okay. I promise.”
you make yourself a bowl of sugar to place the grapefruit slices in
which helps a lot
Sidon takes a mental note that oranges are indeed orange
BAZZ
takes his orange peeling VERY seriously
he’s got gloves and he’s ready to go
because despite the citrus fruit making his hands sting
he really wants to do this for you
he’s not one to be SUPER romantic
so honestly the little things are BIG BIG BIG
he’ll bring you the peeled orange on a tray
the slices presented in an aesthetically appealing way
you’d think he’d gone to culinary school
“For you, my darling.”
you’d both sit on the sofa and enjoy some quality time together
and he’s definitely stealing glances while you eat this orange
RIVAN
this man would do anything for you
literally
the chaos that ensues when you ask for something
even something small
is too much for most
but not for you
you’ve learned just how to handle it
but Rivan peeling oranges is another story
he always forgets to wear gloves
and for most Zora, it wouldn’t be too much pain
but Rivan
you’d walk in, seeing this whole display
“… Aren’t you allergic to citrus fruits?”
he’d side eye you
“And?”
he’s not letting that major health concern stop him
“Now that Valentines Day has come to an end, do we have any headcanons about our favorite Zoras and how they’d react to/celebrate the human holiday of love?” - @rocklover719
i had nothing planned to post today. and then i saw this request and went so wild with it
let's just pretend they do celebrate, because i had a LOT to say... i hope you enjoy <3
Sidon
would 1000000000% be down to do anything romantic with you
the guy is a simp frfr
daily prince/king duties?
not today
he’d doing everything in his power to keep you as close to him as possible
expect loads of gifts and flowers
and the CHEESIEST Valentine’s card that he’s obviously made himself
anything you want is at your fingertips
and you bet he’s taking you out to the NICEST place for dinner
he’s staring at you the whole night
a sloppy, love filled grin plastered on his face
he’s entranced by the way you look tonight
not that he isn’t every night, but
‘Wow, [they’re] something…’ he’d thing to himself
you both share a dessert
and and when you get home, it’s all cuddles and affection
Bazz
Bazz ends up working
not because he forgot to take off
no
but because he wants to go on a survey and find some of your favorite wildflowers for a bouquet
as well as pick the perfect spot for a picnic dinner
he has every intention to make you feel special today
but he also wants you to have some time for yourself as well
once he gets home, he gives you this beautiful bouquet of wildflowers
he wraps you up in his arms and plants a kiss on your cheek
you both get ready for your picnic dinner
and it can be a bit time consuming, because he’s trying so hard to keep himself together
as you’re getting ready, he’ll plant light touches and kisses on you
and he doesn’t do it often, so you’re bound to get at least a little flustered
something’s definitely in the air
once you make it the the cliffside looking over the Akkala region, everything is already set up
the sun sets as you eat
and it’s one of the most romantic dinners of your lives
Rivan
if it’s a training day… he’s not going
“Fuck you, Bazz. It’s Valentine’s Day.”
he gets up the same time he usually does
which is VERY early
and he makes you the absolute best breakfast you can imagine
once you wake, he brings it to you in bed
and on the tray he brings in, you find a small vase with flowers and a card
you both eat your fill, all while wrapped in the comfy cozy sheets
it’s cuddles and affection all day
unless you want to go out
whatever you want to do, he’s up for
he will show you off to the whole domain
he’s SO proud to be your Valentine
he’s so silly
silly in love
you two would cook dinner together
and you both would make the biggest mess known to Hyrule in your kitchen
it’s quite romantic to say the least
as you go to clean up the kitchen, he stops you, wiping some flour from the tip of your nose
“We can get to that in the morning. There’s something else I’d rather be doing right now…” *wink wink*
Ledo
Ledo’s quite reserved when it comes to romance
today however…
he wants to give you all the attention you deserve
he’s always loved spoiling you with little trinkets and eclectic finds
but he’s got something special for today
your gift has been ready for weeks
and he’s had such a hard time not giving it to you already
he takes the day off to spend time with you
he gets up early to buy you flowers, arranging them neatly in a vase on the table
and he’s made you a card as well, everything written so neatly and precise
he’d spill his entire soul in this card
he takes you out to lunch somewhere nice
nothing too flashy of course
and after that, you both take a little stroll around the domain
once you get to one of the many secluded ponds, his heart would start pounding
it’s gift time
“Close your eyes.”
he’d stand behind you, slowly clasping a locket around your neck
and it’s BEAUTIFUL
he’d spent so much extra time in Dento’s workshop crafting this piece for you
“I wanted to make you something special. I hope you like it.”
he feels butterflies for the rest of the day
just looking at you is enough to set his heart ablaze
