Summary
What do you even put as a salutation in a letter to a princess? Is “Dear Princess Zelda” too generic? Do you need to say “your highness” or “your majesty” or something? Is there some special formal greeting just for royals?
… Did it matter at all when you weren’t even sure how to get a letter to the girl who you’d just saved? Maybe saved? Hopefully saved?
Trapped in a rift after (hopefully) saving the princess, Link tries to communicate back to the normal world.

Too Old to Keep by LadyHoneydee
Fandoms: The Legend of Zelda & Related Fandoms, The Legend of Zelda: The Ocarina of Time
22 Oct 2022
Tags
Summary
The stories run through her mind like a shadowed brook as she trips her way over a tree root. The woods hold wolves, the woods hold deku scrubs. The woods hold spiders as large as a cat, or bigger. The woods hold skull kids. The woods hold stalfos from those that had wandered too far afield—although she’s fairly sure that one is nothing more than a tale to scare children away.
If nothing else, the woods hold her imagination, and refuse to let go.

Or, Zelda gets lost in the woods, and finds more than she expected hidden under the midnight canopy.Bookmarked by louwhose

I Adopted the King of Darkness by GM Picaro (cream4sugar)
Fandom The Legend of Zelda & Related Fandoms
17 Apr 2023
Summary
Link storms the fortress of the Yiga Clan where he expects to find Ganondorf the King of Darkness waiting for him. Except...he's arrived about 30 years too early for Ganondorf to do battle with anyone. And he takes that personally, and decides that's his responsibility now.
(Each work in the series is planned as a standalone that builds on the first work, so although I'll never mark the series "finished," each individual piece will provide a satisfying conclusion unless marked "unfinished.")

A princess on the run, a missing hero, and the sword they share.

It’s not like the fate of the world rests on her shoulders. She’s just got to mend a couple rifts and find Link. How hard can that be?

this peppermint winter, this marshmallow world by LadyHoneydee for pastelsandpining
Fandoms: The Legend of Zelda & Related Fandoms

Summary
At the end of the second swallow, she finally opened her eyes—and caught Link in the midst of a sip of his own. Watching her.
Why did the warmth in his eyes look so…different? Had he ever looked at her that way before, in all their years of friendship?
Maybe it was just the glow of the streetlamp they stood beneath, transforming the snow into glittering fairy dust and the ambiance into spun gold. If they left this place, if they took their walk as planned, perhaps the clear blue moon would return them to the same light they’d always been cast in.
Why did the thought of that make her chest so tight?
--
Zelda and Link have been joined at the hip since elementary school, so when her best friend starts acting weird, Zelda notices straightaway. He's avoiding eye contact, blushing at her jokes, jumping away when she gets too close. She's determined to figure out just what is going on.
A hot beverage, a cold winter's night, a long walk. What revelations will come to light as the snow falls? -
