A Study in Perspicacity by silentsafflina

Summary
'I do not need to know how many shades of blue can be found in the irises of the Hero's eyes or that in a certain light they can match the Master Sword's hilt (a dubious assertion). Nor do I need to be made aware of how many individual sweat droplets he excretes while partaking in his early morning training exercises, which he apparently practises while half-nude. I have also yet to find myself interested in how long it takes for him to notice his hair tie is missing or that his hair is longer than it appears and smells of tea tree shampoo.'
Or, Zelda discovers that clouded eyes will never see the truth.

Summary
Link shouldn't allow this. Shouldn't indulge himself when he knows that Sidon is far, far from his reach. He shouldn't allow this because the avatar might only be doing this because Link wants it to, and how will he ever explain something like that to Sidon? He shouldn't be doing this because Sidon might find out somehow, because the king might already know, because this might taint their precious friendship.
He shouldn't because a taste of intimacy like this is only going to make Link want the real thing even more.
Or
Sidon's avatar starts behaving strangely, teasing Link with affectionate touches and gestures that the real Sidon would never allow; a torment so sweet, Link simultaneously wants it to end and never stop. At the same time, Sidon is plagued with strange dreams of his dearest friend. Dreams where he can't hold back desires he didn't even know he had.

Summary
!! This entire work is based entirely off of fanart I found depicting Aether and Lumine as younger siblings to Link (Artist remains unknown, work was not credited) !!
"Beyond Hyrule, and beyond the stars, lies hundreds and thousands of different worlds each unique and never the same.”
“The stars we see every night are just as special as the countless of different worlds there could be. My mother and father, just as I will tell you now, always believed that some of the stars we see each night are their own person, watching over us and all the worlds that they hang over.”

Summary
Link awakens from his slumber confused, disoriented, and annoyed with the pounding pain in his temples.
Then he hears a voice. A voice that instantly brings his muscles to relax, his mind to quiet.
"You are the light, our light, that must shine upon Hyrule once again. Please be careful, Link. Now, go."
....go?

Story starts at the end of botw, rolls through the 5 year gap, and into totk all the way to the end so def spoiler warning if you haven't completed either games and also a huge attempt to make ToTK make SENSE

Summary
“I thought you…” Zelda's voice is quiet, barely above a whisper. “I thought you despised me.”
Link’s eyes widen with shock. Zelda can practically see the way his mind races with thoughts – thoughts so intangible and unknown to her, hidden behind his ever-present silence.
Then Link kneels. He bows his head, as if his eyes are unworthy of gazing upon her.
“I could never despise you, Your Highness.” His voice is full of more emotion than Zelda has ever heard from him – such an intense, honest reverence. “I… I live to serve you.”
-------
No prophecy or destiny is more important to Link than his responsibilities as Princess Zelda's personal knight. He would follow her anywhere - a fact proven by his strangely familiar dreams. At first, Zelda dislikes the knight that her father insists must accompany her everywhere. But over time, they grow incredibly close.As time goes by, Zelda contemplates her role as Princess, while Link tries to figure out the meaning of his dreams - which have started to feel more like memories.
Or: A closer look at Link, Zelda, and their relationship throughout the events of BotW, (eventually TotK too,) and during parts of their lives not shown by the games.

Summary
The idea was to write down something that you wanted to let go of in the new year. Offer it to the flames; freeing yourself from it. Link had his paper in his pocket, waiting for the rush of people to die down before approaching the fire.
Link isn’t sure he is ready to let go.. 🥂

It Could've Been You by halfsharkhalfhammah

Summary
Link knew it was arrogant of himself to think that his closest friend had any feelings aside from platonic toward him - but who could blame him? Sidon had been nothing but kind, caring and gentle to him; the Zora Prince treated the Hylian as though he were a precious gem on his royal accessories. They had far too many moments together that made Link’s heart skip too many beats. But maybe the Hylian had mistook his actions as something more than friendly. So, why was it that after The Upheaval, the young Hylian had discovered that his dearest friend was engaged to another?

It's a Lonely Road to Happiness by Pockykierra

Summary
Link is avoiding the Domain.
That is Yona’s theory, at least - because she can’t necessarily prove he is avoiding the Domain. After all, he is the Hero of Hyrule. The Champion of Champions. And those titles certainly don’t come with much free time, especially after the Upheaval and the disappearance of Princess Zelda. So, the most logical conclusion is assuming the small Hylian just doesn’t have time for galavanting.
Only speculation, the whispers of others, and the ponderings of Sidon himself have led her to believe he might be evading visiting.

Summary
No one has even paused to think about to ask Link if he's coping well--if the battles and duties he's upheld affect him in anyway, or if he would like a break, a vacation, or even an embrace of care.
Does Link ever collapse to the weight of everything he has done, and has yet to? What would it take, if not Ganon himself?
A Zoran marriage, that's what.

Summary
Link tried very hard to "keep breathing" during a training session with Revali but the Rito is making it increasingly difficult. Link's feelings really shouldn't be the focus right now and it doesn't help that Revali isn't the easiest to read. However, when Link gets the opportunity to actually 𝘳𝘦𝘢𝘥 Revali he figures him out a little more.
