y'all can finish stuff??

@candycain2356

'ello!!! This blog is the perfect culmination of my being: cute, poorly organised, and so very confused. Genderfluid/ Queer. I have like 183 interests so this is one hell of a wreck, sorry. If you need anything tagged, don't be afraid to ask! The cat in the header is called Mog!! :D They/Them

So basically Prince Sidon became my new comfort character recently and i couldn't rly grasp why I love him so much until right now.

From the very beginning something about the way his character is portrayed felt very fresh and interesting, and today i realized it's about genuineness.

This guy is so unapologetically supportive and genuine. He never does this thing where someone says something and then catches themselves like "oh that was cheesy". And i really don't see enough of that, especially in adult characters. In kids, sometimes. But almost never in adults.

I feel like at some point having very sarcastic and/or cynical characters, with "realistic" view on life was seriously a novel concept. But i guess the market has saturated. So in times where most of the media presented to us is dark and "realistic" (aka very depressing and cruel), having someone unironically say stuff like this:

(especially when the character themselves is presented as very masculine overall)

is really amazing and refreshing. And it's no surprise to me that he's so well loved. He deserves it.

Link is actually flattered, he just doesn’t know how to accept compliments. *do not repost* *click for better quality*

bonus under cut

I love how in every cutscene in BOTW Link is just loaded with weaponry. Everyone's like "You can't possibly be the hero, twink" and meanwhile he has a bow, a spear, like 13 different swords, a pot lid, 5 shields from his Zora Boyfriend and is probably hiding a glock between his ass cheeks

Avatar!Sidon headcanon 👀 angst

May I present: Sidon can feel what the Avatar!Sidon companion feels. Avatar!Sidon also being a personification of Sidon’s soul and true feelings. The avatar cannot speak therefore simply shows what Sidon wishes to do through small gestures (and as protector in general). Meanwhile, King Sidon in the Domain feels a strange tingle in his hand as the avatar traces a hand over Link's cheek...

Can't get over the thought of Link accidentally revealing his true feelings to Sidon because he hasn't gotten a hang of his new alien hand, compounded by the heightened emotions of learning Sidon is engaged.

PLEASE let me know if this is anything...

ok i Know i KNOW link is just so tiny compared to sidon that he always has to bend down like that to shake hands but LIKE. COME ON. this specific pose and more-gentle-than-usual handholding + pleading for link to accept his vow of loyalty + the fact that the power to summon him at any time comes in the form of a RING............

what part of this isn't a proposal. just because hes marrying yona doesnt mean he cant marry link too

Look I know you Sidlink shippers are heartbroken by the news in TOTK but can you all kindly consider this:

Yona is the most supportive woman in the world. She literally met her big, buff fiancé's twink boyfriend and not only happily welcomed him with open arms but actively used every opportunity to put him and Sidon in the same room together. She even painstakingly fixed the Zora Armor for Link, how important it is for him and Sidon. She is very willing to share.

Dumb idea with TOTK and sidlink/Sidlinkona where Poly relationships are super common with the Zora and Link doesn’t realise that Sidon already proposed to him and they’ve technically been engaged since around BOTW, and Yona is Sidon’s fiancée but Link is Sidon’s intended.

Everyone in the Zora domain think Link already knows this, they don’t realise he doesn’t have all his memoires back still. Zelda knows but she thought Link must know after all how can he get engaged and not know… plus she’d seen him and Sidon interact.

Yona is super excited meeting Link and ok may have fallen a bit for him just from all the letters Sidon sent her and everything he’s said since she arrived, she realty wanted to send letters to him before but wasn’t sure if that was proper protocol or not.

Link has zero fucking idea what’s going on, it’s only at the wedding that he actually realises what’s happening.

Everyone saying that Sidlink is dead just because Sidon is engaged are forgetting several crucial things:

1. Zora have arranged marriages, esp the royal family. We've known this since OOT

2. ALL members of the Zora royal family are in love with Link regardless of marital status (see, Ruto)

3. Sidon only talks to his fiancee ABOUT LINK like can you imagine

4. Sidon has two hands???? We've known he's a bisexual icon already but now it's canon??? He can be in love with BOTH his fiancee AND Link!

5. The added spice of either Sidon being queer and not realizing it until after he's married or being in love with Link and having to chose his princely duties over his heart is SO GOOD DONT SLEEP ON THE SPICE

Sidon, greeting his literal fiancé: Oh, hey Lady Yona! How are you?

Sidon, greeting his little gremlin of a “best friend”, Link: Oh, Link! My bestest most cherished friend of all time! How amazing and exciting it is to see you, how are you doing? Amazing and perfectly I hope! Oh, did I mention how excited I am to see you :D :D :D?! Because I am very much so!
