Anyways, if you like monster taming games and wacky storytelling play Time Stranger.

-I think he really enjoys fruit, particularly mangoes and hydromelons as these provide high sugar content and hydration. They are basically the perfect food for a tough training session, fuel while training that is. He probably will have a bowl of cut up hydromelon and mango to snack on while training. Apples are also up there since his amiibo drops apples in BotW. (Also my own personal headcanon is that he would really enjoy dates since they are a very sweet fruit). -Given that the Gerudo in EoW have spicy peppers and tagine pots in their homes, I like to headcanon that Ganondorf enjoys spicy meat stews (his amiibos drop specifically cuts of red meat). He'll probably have that with a bread of some sort.

Interesting. Even the door's design has symbols that resemble the Sheikah lettering we see in the wilds era, though that would be applying a retroactive explanation to the design. So, my pragmatic side wants to say that the entire design of the door was created to evoke a monstrous, demonic vibe since Ganondorf is the "Emperor of the Dark Realm" (Wind Waker was very funny to call him an emperor because it truly feels like they use terms like lord, king, and emperor interchangeably). Given that the Sheikah's domain is that of the shadows, it seems like it would make sense for Ganondorf to also reign over that domain if he is an emperor, so perhaps that is what those symbols are meant to evoke. It would be a nice easter egg in that sense, if a player recalls that the Sheikah were masters of the shadows. Now if I want to get more into headcanon territory, Ganondorf seems to enjoy making a mockery of his enemies. After all, his entire character is based around this idea that he covets what is not "rightfully" his, and will do whatever it takes to take it into his possession. So, this could be an instance of that. The Sheikah are not present in Wind Waker, and in Ocarina of Time Impa was already claiming to be the last of the Sheikah, so presumably by the time Wind Waker comes around they have been completely wiped out. So Ganondorf, now Emperor of the Dark Realm, claims their symbol as his own as the master of all darkness, including the shadows. Take that Royal Family, the symbol of the people you sent out to do your dirty work is now his because their domain is now under his complete control.

Of course feel free to tell me your reasoning~

Stay tuned~

She looked, in that instant, like the portrait of a young woman who had never once in her life done anything wrong, who had perhaps never even entertained the concept of wrongdoing, and who was mildly, gently, beautifully confused about why anyone might think otherwise.

18. If you have noticed themes emerging in your writing, what are they? What broad themes and topics do you enjoy exploring? I'm less of a person that wants to write an adventure or an epic and more about exploring themes that revolve around personal discovery, if I can call it that? I like to get into a character's head an explore what they are thinking and what they are feeling, and why they choose to act the way they do, and why they feel justified in doing so. This is probably why I also enjoy doing things like analysis lmao, like let me dissect why you're like this in this scenario lmao. I suppose if we want to talk about themes, I love themes that revolve around loss, grief, and unresolved anger, not just being in that feeling per say, but how characters evolve from those feelings.

2. Has writing a fic ever changed your opinion of a character? Probably Zant, and this is a mix of writing fanfic and also thinking about his character and writing meta on him. I always appreciated Zant as a character, and because I was aware that Nintendo wanted Ganondorf in TP in hopes his appearance would be better for the game's marketing, I had fallen in the camp of "It's cool that Ganondorf is there but Zant is the true villain of TP". However, after writing for him in my OG Hyrule Warriors era and then revisiting his character with a more critical view, I have really come to appreciate how his character works well with Ganondorf, that Ganondorf isn't just thrown in there. So maybe not that my opinion changed on him, but I appreciate his role a lot more. 6. When do you title your fics? Before you write them? As you write them? While posting to AO3 and that “Work Title” field is staring at you? Titles are the absolute last thing I do. The only time I come up with a title is if I am posting something to AO3, otherwise all my document names are like "Untitled Document 1" "The thing" "Whatever" like at the very least if I would put something that would TELL ME what the document is about...but I digress. Absolute last thing I do. If I write a story about a horse I will call it "Horse" if I can get away with it. Anyways I am super lazy with titles. 10. What’s a phrase you catch yourself using in multiple fics, not necessarily on purpose? Not a phrase necessarily, but one habit I have when I write is that I will have a paragraph that is describing something, what a character is feeling or what a character is doing, and then right after that paragraph I will have one sentence that either puts emphasis on what happened in the previous paragraph, or acts as a pivot, and then continue with another paragraph. I love load bearing sentences lmao.

I wouldn't mind giving them my ao3 handle, but the problem with that is that most people I know outside of fandom are not into LoZ or any of the fandoms I write for. However! I do actually write original stories and essays, and I have them uploaded in various different places. I am trying to consolidate all that work on itch.io, but if someone outside of fandom was interested in my writing I would probably just give them the direct links to stories I think they'd enjoy. Perhaps some of those might be fanfic haha.
