Summary
Prompt: Write a story that begins with a character realizing that he or she has just had unprotected sex.
After thwarting Calamity Ganon and saving Hyrule Zelda finally gets what she has always wanted from Link: his body. Selfish as it may seem she spends time reflecting on how she's changed, how it feels to have gotten something she so badly desired, and who she is.
Told from Zelda's perspective and only 500 words. This is a one-shot I just did because the prompt was odd to me and I've never seen one like it before.

Summary
Link wakes up with no memory but discovers he has been asleep for 100 years. Now he must struggle with remembering his past, a painful past he has no memory of, and confronting his destiny in the present. Not to mention dealing with the crazy characters he meets while exploring the new world he has woken up in and the foes he runs into.
Takes place during Breath of the Wild and expands on the story we know from the video game. (Part 1 of this trilogy. Also, you know I ship Zelink but this is the slowest slow burn I have ever written)) -

Summary
SPOILERS - MAJOR TEARS OF THE KINGDOM SPOILERS - DO NOT ENGAGE - READ AT YOUR OWN RISK - I WANT TO MAKE THIS CLEAR BECAUSE I HATE HAVING STUFF SPOILED AND IT WAS A NIGHTMARE AVOIDING THEM BEFORE FINISHING THE GAME
Vague summary: Link is madly in love. And usually he'd be better at bracing himself for a dunk in a pond (obviously).

Summary
“Thank you Link, Hero of Hyrule.”
Her voice flows over him, filling him the way it had so many times since he first heard it in the Shrine of Resurrection. He forces himself to look at the princess he fought so hard to retrieve.
She lowers her head, clasping her hands against her chest. “May I ask…do you really remember me?”
She meets his eyes again, and something inside of him cracks. With pity. With pain. Because, as he stares at Princess Zelda, descendant of the goddess, the one who has guided him and called to him all this time, he knows he is about to break her heart.
Because he does not remember her at all.
----
After the defeat of Calamity Ganon, Link and Zelda set off to unite Hyrule, despite the fact that Link does not have his memories, and Zelda is still recovering from her imprisonment in the castle. Along the way, they wrestle with their relationships with each other, themselves, and the people they want to protect.
This story serves as a loose connection between Breath of the Wild and Tears of the Kingdom, exploring the relationship between Link and Zelda in the wake of disaster.

Summary
What up bitches, bros, and my fellow nonbinary hoes!!! I created this book based on the popular game Legend of Zelda Tears of the Kingdom!!! Now if you have played the game you will know that Link (the hero) gets rescued and revived by an ancient zonai spirit named Rauru. Rauru proceeds to help Link enter the Temple of Time, so he can find Zelda. And that is the last we see of Rauru, but what if instead of leaving Link alone to fend for himself he appointed someone to accompany him? What if Link partnered up with the last living Zonai in Hyrule? What if that Zonai was tall and handsome? (Just kidding…..or am I?) There are so many questions yet so few answers. So, I made my own! Also my writing skills suck.
