Sidon almost always brings you mementos from his random hunting excursions in the water - water lilies, lily pads, pearls, indecipherable minerals that lurk under the Zora domain (it's his home, yet his father tells him some of its secrets will remain unknown even to him) - anything he feels might bring light to your eyes. The first tiny gift was nabbed on a whim while he thought of you, but afterward you step out on to the illumed docks of your shared home and find the daily treasure he leaves you.
SFW prompt #5 with Sidon please! I feel like that'd be so fun especially if person A is Hylian.
warnings: fluff, mentions of nudity, Sidon is literally so in love with reader, reader is Fem!Hylian
After a warm bath, you're snuggled up on your bed. Sidon comes in and coos at how sweet you look right now. He has a bottle of fancy and expensive lotion in his hands. You pat the seat next to you on the bed and he complies. His eyes light up when you open up your robe, baring your body to him.
"Oh love," he sighs happily, "I can never get over how beautiful you are." Sidon praises as he begins putting the lotion into his hands.
He begins lathering you up, humming a Zora lullaby under his breath. You aren't even sure how lucky you got to have such a romantic prince fall in love with you. Coincidentally, he was thinking the very same thing about you. How he was so lucky to have you fall for him. The two of you were very much in love.
Sidon is always careful when it came to massaging you and rubbing lotion on your skin. He knows he's much bigger than you, and he doesn't want to accidentally hurt you by putting his weight on you. He leans in to kiss you so softly before continuing to rub the lotion on you. He smiles sweetly when he notices you closing your eyes and succumbing to the pleasure of all of this.
He enjoys just how soft your skin is. His fingers begin tracing all over your moles and beauty marks that litter your skin. He coos and hums curiously as he begins exploring your body. Sidon could never get tired of doing things like this. He just loves to be able to have you stretched out on the bed like this, your body so bare to him.
"Absolutely breathtaking," he mutters as he buries his face in the crook of your neck. Your hands come up to stroke his face, then lower down his fins and his shoulders.
You cannot get over how silky his skin is. It's so much different from yours, but you enjoy getting your hands all over him whenever you get the chance to. Which is pretty seldom most days, but you are so grateful for these moments.
Soon you're lathering the lotion onto his silky skin. He groans softly as you begin massaging him. Your hands soothe all over him, tracing his fins and then caressing his muscles. You can't believe just how strong he is sometimes. He purrs softly, making you giggle.
"My beautiful prince..." you praise him.
Pretty soon you're both lying together on the bed, caressing one another. It's quiet and it's peaceful. And it's perfect for two lovers falling even deeper in love.
Summary: Totally didnt just make a comfort fic about storms cuz my area was hit by a bad thunderstorm with tons of lightning everywhere that totally didn't make me think about Zora Domain after Vah Ruta reactivated and I imagine that maybe there was a Hylian who happened to be visiting at the time and got paralyzed with fear from it and maybe a certain fish prince just i dunno comforts them ahahahah
Word count >1000
The loud booming cry of the Divine Beast shook the domain to it’s core. The storm stirred slowly before lighting began to strike at the trees surrounding the domain.
The Zora people quickly took shelter. Bazz gasped and hurried the Hylian woman into the domain, making sure she was alright before training his eyes on the dam.
“Stay indoors,” he ordered the people within the shop. “Wait until further instruction as I get an assessment of the situation.”
With that, the guard left. “Are we going to die?” Finley asked her mother, stirring unease within the people.
“I doubt that,” The Hylian said, smiling to the girl. “I mean, c’mon. Have you seen the Zora guards? And the prince?” The small Zora’s eyes began to sparkle with excitement. “The guards are heroes, friend. They’ll keep you safe.”
Finley beamed and nodded then pouted. “But…my beloved.”
At the Hylian’s blink, her mother sighed. “An old legend. Actually, would you like to hear it?” She nodded to the Hylian’s shaking hands. “It might distract you.”
“I’d like that,” She confessed.
Though stories brought comfort as they waited, the Hylian’s body flinched at every rumble of thunder, making it acutely obvious she was terrified, but her face remained a smile, as if comforting the nearby Zora children she sat with as the mother told her and everyone who’d listen the legend of the Bank of Wishes.
The guard soon returned and assured everyone the storm was not reaching the domain, only the forests surrounding. Caution was to be taken but it was warranted given the circumstance. He then approached the Hylian.
“I’m sorry. Because of how dangerous it is, it might be best if you stay here until the storm has passed,” He amended.
“That’s alright. Thank you. If there’s anything I can do to pull my weight around here, please let me know,” She sighed, flinching again at a particularly loud lightning strike.
As the night wore on, she found herself hiding away from the eyes of the Zora people in the storage rooms. Her body shook as she cupped her ears, trying to muffle the loud sounds.
She tried to shoo away the fears, belittling herself for such a childish fear. Even the elder Zora spat at her behavior. She knew…She knew and yet, here she was, hiding in the storage room like a child.
“In here?” A voice muttered from outside. She vaguely swore she heard little Finley’s voice in response before the door opened. “Thank you. I’ll take care of it.”
“Do you really think there’s a ghost in there?” The girl muttered as the larger Zora ducked into the room, looking around before locking onto the Hylian.
He could only stare at her, her face stained with tears as she kept curled up tight, hands covering her ears. She was unaware of his presence.
Finely poked her head in and blinked. “Your highness,” She whispered to Sidon as he glanced at her. “That’s Y/N, the merchant.”
He nodded and put his finger to his lips and gently gestured for her to leave. She nodded, closing the door gently before hurrying off. She couldn’t wait to tell her mother how she was the one who ensured the prince’s new bride.
Sidon smiled as he sat down in front of her, gently patting her knee. He chuckled at the Hylian’s quick jerk away from him, pressing herself even further into the wall. He held his hands up. “You’re alright. I’m here because Finley thought she heard a ghost in here. Happy to see that’s not the case.”
Y/N gulped thickly. “U-Uhm…”
Sidon nodded and looked to the window up high, listening to the thunder. “It’s scary when Vah Ruta summons storms like this. It still terrifies me.”
“Y-You?” she mumbled.
He nodded. “ The day of the Calamity, my sister was slain inside the beast. The malevolent forces that controlled it summoned a huge storm that raged for days. I was still about the age of Finley when that happened–”
“I’m sorry,” She said quickly, trying to wipe away her face. “I didn’t mean t-to burden you more.”
“Burden?” He asked in surprise. “Why is your fear a burden?”
“It’s not fair to you.”
Sidon weighed these words before smiling and moving closer. “Come here,” he said gently, holding out his arms. She stared at him in surprise. “I didn’t say that for pity. I said it because I’m scared too. The last time this happened, I lost someone. Our fears are two sides of the same coin.” He gestured for her to come closer.
Hesitantly, the Hylian moved closer before he scooped her up, holding her close. “There. Now we can hold onto each other until we’re okay again.”
She blushed at the contact, yelping when another huge bolt struck outside and hid in his neck. Her body trembled as she clung to him. “I…I’ve always been scared of them. It got e-easier when I grew up b-but…”
He smiled. “But the bigger storms just affect you differently?” she nodded into him, making him smile as he rubbed her back. “I understand. You needn’t worry though. I won’t judge you. From what I hear, you did well at keeping a calm demeanor.”
“This is why Hylians are vile things,” A voice echoed in her mind, making her whimper.
“Though, I heard about the elders through the children. Bazz even reported what they’d said. I did scold them.”
“You didn’t need to,” She mumbled. “I’m…old enough. I should be over this childish fear.”
“It’s childish to be fearful of nature?” He challenged, making her flinch. Sidon smiled gently. “Will staying in my room with me help you? Staying with you helps me.”
It was then that Y/N finally took in the trembling of his hands. It was just barely noticeable. She only realized it when he’d tucked her hair behind her ear and felt his claw twitch ever so slightly against her skin.
“Y-Yeah,” she gulped. “I’d…like that.”
“Then it’s settled. When you’re ready, you’ll come to my room where we can hold each other.” Her face went bright red, making him blink. “What?”
“If my mother heard that, she’d be screaming,” She chuckled lightly. “She wouldn’t stop teasing us about how I managed to end up in a prince’s bed.”
He barked a laugh at that, making her smile softly as she clung to him. Together, they waited for the trembling to subside.
The ornate silver neck piece made contact with the tiled floor with a satisfying clank. With each clasp undone, Sidon felt his body buzzing at the newfound lightness. The metallic chime of his final piece of garment, his left bracelet, was a beautiful sound that echoed off the vast pillared walls of his chambers. Although it already had been a day since his arrival, his muscles still ached with a dull tightness brought onto him from the journey to Hyrule Castle. A subtle form of tiredness akin to jetlag was quickly draining his energy and he could not wait to submerge himself in the ample pool that laid before him.
Sidon padded to the edge of the water, streaks of ivory moonlight passing over his crimson scales. He kneeled down, wincing as he heard a few of his bones crack, and dipped an experimental hand into the basin. The warmth of the liquid sent a shiver up Sidon’s body and he immediately slid into the water in one fluid movement. The castle maids had prepared his pool with warm water, per your request, to the exact temperature you knew he liked it. Although this was just one of the many guest rooms in the immense castle, he felt your homey presence in every corner of the chamber. It made his heart flutter in adoration.
Sinking lower, he let the water engulf his shoulders. The tension diffused out and a supple moan escaped his parted lips. Lightly treading water, his thoughts circulated through his mind much like the gentle current of the pool. The officials and champions he had rekindled with today, what was he going to eat tomorrow morning, how radiant you had looked in your formal w-
“Prince Sidon, I forgot to ask you on more question before you retired to the room!” Zelda’s melodic voice carried from the hallway. Her small but sturdy frame emerged from behind the towering door, the hem of her gown swaying about her ankles as she danced her way into the entryway. Soon after she appeared, your head peeked its way around the frame.
Perhaps it was the abruptness of the entry, the intimate solitude of the chambers, his discarded garments, or all factors combined, but Sidon suddenly felt hot. Uncomfortably hot; and not from the water.
“A-ah, yes Princess, what did you want to, ah, ask me?” He coughed, awkwardly sinking lower into the pool. He cursed the palace for having such crystal clear water.
Your brow knit into a firm line at his flustered state. Never before had you seen him act like this seemingly for no reason. When his eyes began flicking anxiously from the pile of metal to you, a wave of understanding flooded your consciousness. Sidon felt exposed. And he was embarrassed about it.
It was natural for Hylian habits to rub off on him since the two of you had started courting. When you were in the Domain, the only time you spent away from the Prince was when you were working on Vah Ruta or the one to two hours of his council meetings. With all that contact how could a few things not start to be ingrained in Sidon’s daily routine? It was clear now by the steady reddening of his cheeks that one of those habits pertained to wearing garments. Or more specifically, when one is caught not wearing them.
“Oh, is this a bad time?” She blinked, unclear of what had him acting so strangely. Sidon looked like he was about to expire in the cloud of uncomfortableness that was circling above the pool. As adorable as he looked, shuffling bashfully and avidly studying the carvings on the nearest pillar, you needed to save him. Biting back your laughter you tapped Zelda lightly on the shoulder. Her head whipped around, confusion still inscribed on her face.
“Zelda, it appears that Sidon was not expecting company this late at night.” You stated, giving her a knowing look you prayed she would pick up on. You cocked your head subtly towards the armor and Zelda gasped softly, the tips of her pointed ears running rosy. She then looked to the Prince with panic written all over her features and he returned the expression tenfold. The two of them turned from mimicking rose petals to beats instead, only making the aroma of the room more thick with tension.
“Oh my goodness! My deepest apologies, Sidon. I didn’t realize you were having, ahem, some alone time.” She cleared her throat and dropped her gaze to the floor so fast you wondered if she got whiplash.
“Well, Y/N can just tell me your answer tomorrow morning. Until then.” She stuttered, abruptly turning on her heels and disappearing behind the door. Once the brisk click signaled her departure, every muscle, tendon, and scale in Sidon’s body went lax. He sighed, tipping his head back against the edge of the pool with a gentle clunk. You took a moment to drown in his appearance. He was like a slightly wilted lotus flower with coral petals basking in the rippling droplets of indigo moonlight.
It now physically hurt to restrain your hysterics and you suddenly burst into a fit of giggles, drowning the luminated room in a symphony of laughs not unlike a songbird’s. Sidon poked one eye open and shook his head in mortified distress, still lazily leaning against the tiled rim.
“Stop laughing, Y/N. I bet she thinks I was doing something lewd or weird. In her castle of all places.” He grumbled, raising his hands out of the water to run them over his face.
Once you had reigned in your cacophony you padded over to the pool and sat down next to his deflated form, feet dangling into the water.
“Nah. It’s okay, Si. She’s my oldest and best friend. If she does I’ll tell her the truth.” You nudged him playfully. He lolled his head to the side in your direction.
“That might be even more embarrassing…” Sidon trailed off, his face contorted into a slight grimace. You returned it with a fond smile.
“Stop looking at me like that.” He huffed, a feigned pout forming on his features. The rosiness on his cheeks bloomed once more as he lightly splashed your feet where they embraced the water’s surface.
“You know, you used to never be embarrassed about being seen without your accessories.” You stated innocently, eyeing him to observe his reaction.“They don’t really leave anything to the imagination, anyway.”
“Hylian customs are rubbing off on me, I guess.” He replied in a small voice, snaking an arm around your calf to press himself into your side. He started idly playing with your toes, offering a squeak from you. You lightly kicked out, hoping to shake him off. Instead he only scooted closer yet he resigned from his tickling.
“What did the Princess want to ask me?” Sidon inquired. He seemed to be mostly recovered from the ordeal.
“She wanted to know what you wanted for breakfast tomorrow. You left before she could put in an order for the chef.”
“Damn, that’s an important question.” He muttered, setting his chin on your knee and looking up at you with anticipation, his eyes large and blinking.
“I was planning on telling her smoked salmon.” You informed the prince, giving his caudal fin a loving stroke. Sidon’s eyes lit up, his saffron orbs turning a brilliant gold that put the calming hue of the starlight to shame. He could feel himself start to salivate at the mention of the Hylian delicacy.
“Don’t drool on my leg.” You teased, chuckling as he gulped audibly. You were unable to convey your thoughts on the dish as the deep chiming of the castle’s clocktower replaced whatever voice you would have spoken. The twelve bells signaled it had just turned midnight.
“It’s late, we should both get some rest. We need to wake up early for the festivities tomorrow.” You let out a bittersweet sigh, not wanting to break away from the closeness you shared but knowing you would be the walking dead in the morning if you stayed up any longer. As you rose to your feet, Sidon’s head limply fell into the water, his gaze never leaving your form. Just as you were about to deliver a sweet goodnight, he gingerly grabbed your ankle.
“Please stay, my pearl.” He suggested, a gentle plea that caused your heart to skip a beat.
“Can’t get enough of me, hm?” You sang.
“A very true statement, darling.” Sidon cooed, the warmth radiating from his gaze brushing the tips of your ears and leaving a blushed residue in its wake.
“Alright.” You responded through a yawn.
“We can go back to your chambers, if you’d like.” Sidon suggested, releasing his hold on your ankle and making a move to leave the basin. You shook your head and held a hand out to stop him. He halted his movements immediately and blinked up at you.
“You’re soaked. You’ll get my bed wet. I will go get some blankets and return.” You chuckled as you strode towards the doors. He hummed in agreement, a breathy laugh puffing from his chest. Grasping the knob, you turned to face Sidon once more.
“Better keep an eye on this door, my prince. Wouldn’t want someone to see you so exposed now would we?” You warned, tone velvety and blithe. The last thing you heard before you skittered out of the room was a loud groan and the sound of an unlit candle being halfheartedly thrown at the door.
Hello! I saw you were taking Botw Headcanon requests, so I hope it's alright if I send one in. How about Sidon with a very short and kinda chaotic or excitable s/o? I'm talking around 4 feet, 11 inches tall kinda short, but they're just so excitable and honestly the cutest thing ever. Also, I hope this is okay to ask, but would you consider doing Botw Matchups/Ships? Not many blogs do them, and I am starved for that kinda content, but I completely understand if you don't want to. I hope you have a good day, best wishes hun!!
I have actually consider doing botw ships but I never know were to start.
I might as well update the rules for requesting, I'll probably do it until I feel more comfortable with others ships then Zelink, because that's like the only ship I like lmao
Sorry for taking so long, I almost finish all my homework, it's been a while since I did a fully Sidon x reader
I hope you like it ✨
Sidon having a gremlin S/O
What is Sidon's height????
I'm gonna check...
...........
HOLY SHIT
Thanks reddit post
YOU CAN FUCKING CLIMB HIM LIKE A MOUNTAIN
OH MY GOD
Okay, first of all, for you, he's like Everest's mountain, he is SO BIG
And for him, you're like a tiny puppy
I'll be fucking scared of him, holy shit
He could crush you and won't even notice for how tiny you are
And you know how to prevent it????
PIGGYBACK!!!!
Or just carrying you around in any way
He might tease you a little bit with lifting you and carrying you in bridal style
And you can't do anything about it
Because tiny legs
You don't mind though
He'll treat you with so much care like you're some kind of doll or the most important thing in the universe
Sidon be like: *holds gently*
I imagine you following him all the time and just popping from behind his legs like, peekaboo!
Sidon finds you adorable and more then that
He gets so anxious and worried when you just disappear of his sight.
He looks for you everywhere and finds you just killed all the nearby monster camps with a random trident you found laying around in less then two hours
None the less, all the guards were scared of you
You're a menace to society ← someone said it, I'll take no criticism and you can bet your ass that Sidon scold them
Sidon was really surprised, he saw there was no need to be so overprotective
But please stop doing that
Sometimes you two are just walking around the Zora region and some lizalfos appear
Before he can do something, you exterminated them in a blink
“Sidon! What if we ride that Lynel?”
“Haha.... Please don't”
And- oop too late, your sprinting towards it
Sidon got you and stopped you to do that, he told to all the guards to not let you by any means, go to that Lynel o nearby monster camps
He skipped a beat that day
Please stop doing it, you're gonna make him have a heart attack
You have energy 24/7, so Sidon tried to reduce it with practice
Not a lot of people knew, but that they found out if anyone fight you, even a guard
That guard never existed, it was thrown to another plane of existence
You're such a gremlin, but Sidon loves you more then anything
He just asks you to be careful with what you do
If you're ever hurt.... He'll throw hands, no doubt to ANYTHING that hurt you
It's just, you're so precious to him and he'll not let anyone or anything hurt you
So I saw the angsty Revali x reader turning into links sister being with Sidon for the original Botw timeline. Normally not one for angst cause it ya know makes me sad, but it was a good angst.
So because of that, I wanted to know what hcs you would have for Prince Sidon x Links sister reader? (kinda a continuation,but also it is still kinda just like relationship hcs. Idk how else to explain it). I think it would be really cute cause Sidon is just too damn sweet.
(Revali May be sad, but as you mentioned he still loves her so he’s probably just watching over her and making sure she’s happy. Mipha too probably knowing her brother and one of her best friends are happy. Doesn’t have to include this, but this just seems like how these two would be as they watch over their loved ones. Although, one little mistake from Shark Prince and Miphas spirit would have to hold Revali back from haunting Sidon)
This shouldn't be as funny as it sounds lmao
This is kinda cute and depressing.
I had to investigate about amnesia and how people with it live, because that's exactly how BOTW Link lives, and so (Y/N), with a bit of PTSD, sorry if it's not accurate.
Sorry for taking time on these, I'm starting to think I don't have control over my time management.
I hope you like it ✨
I had no idea how to name this one, I'm so sorry
(Y/N) dealing with amnesia and trauma with Sidon and Revali
I love this GIF....
After you and Sidon starting dating, you felt like something isn't what it should be.
Yes, you're happy with Sidon, Link doesn't mind at all and Sidon is also really happy.
But you felt like there was something missing...
Or someone
You had no idea, every memory you had before waking up was completely gone and even the stuff you get to remember, is easy to see it blurry.
You were even kinda jealous that Link had a way of finding his important memories.
But yours are gone with no clue where to find them, sometimes you have flashback's in random places.
Link and you get really good, he also feels bad for you but you tell him it doesn't matter, you don't really need your memories.
You and Link have a trauma with the guardians, with constant nightmares.
Link doesn't show it a lot but you can get easily scared with even a decayed one.
You sometimes think there's a guardian stalker near or a decayed one is still working, you see them move but there's nothing there.
Sidon is really worried for you two.
He was kinda surprised you weren't afraid of any monsters, not even of the Hinox or Lynels.
You helped each other with the nightmare's, Link doesn't say anything but he sure is scared.
He has to do check all the area where your sleeping in order to be more calmed and you help him.
When you wake up from a nightmare, you can't sleep, the slightest of sounds is going to alarm you.
It's amazing how yo two can do everything even with a very reduced sleeping schedule.
The first time you slept with Sidon was kinda problematic, Sidon didn't knew how you where after a nightmare or even if you sleep well.
You were in his room and falled asleep, it was a long day and you finally got to rest.
When Sidon entered the room he saw you sleeping so he tried to not make too much noise.
But even if he tried to not wake you up, you still wake up in cold sweat.
You grabbed your sword immediately and put yourself in defense position.
Sidon got scared and worried, he asked you if something bad happened or if he made so much noise.
You let go your sword and fall on the bed to start crying.
He immediately hugged you, trying to comfort you.
“Please answer me, I want to know if something happened, did you had an nightmare?”
You told him about your trauma but you where honest, you didn't remember or know how you got it.
All this time you where paranoid of something that you can't remember neither the moment you got that trauma.
You told him about your nightmares, it was imposible for you to sleep completely, you needed have your sword in order to be at least calm.
But the littlest of sounds made you go into fight or fly mode.
Sidon didn't get angry at you, he was really worried.
“I promise to protect you with my life for any kind of danger you fear, even from your nightmares, here in the Zora region is free form guardians and none of them will be able to hurt you anymore, and when you have a nightmare, you can hold to me tight so I can comfort you”
You were so touched that you started crying, he cuddle with you the rest of the night.
Not gonna lie, Revali was ready to haunt Sidon when he made you cry.
Also, he was jelly.
But also worried for you, at least you had someone to comfort you.
But if Sidon mades you cry once again or breaks your heart...
Ganon will be a tiny fairy compared to his gigantic hatred towards Sidon.
Mipha, please stop him.
At this point, Mipha is just holding Revali to come back from the death and beat Sidon's ass.
He doesn't hate him, he's just making sure you are completely happy.
Yes, he knows your relationship ended when he died and it's nothing of his business now.
But that'll never stopped him from loving you to the last day of his existence.
Revali can't do a lot to protect you, but he can try his best.
I think every time you have a nightmare, he's with you, checking on you and trying to make it go away.
He wish you remember him but that's not going to make him come back.
He just wants to talk to you and apologize...
Apologize for not being with you when you need him, apologize for leaving you behind in this cruel world, apologize for not saying goodbye.
But he knows you already have a lot to process and a spirit from the past it's not what you need... And he accepts his fate.
