SO MANY FEELS IM LEGIT ABOUT TO CRY

He’s trained to obey orders and have no opinions. The fact that he’s so Loyal not to talk behind his master’s back takes a lot of mental strength. Also being alone in solitude as long as he did before Link came around would make any human’s sanity wither. I admire him for that!

ah behold my most ridiculous of headcanons. Most of these come from my own little ‘post SS/bonded sword’ verse. Also summons the 'ghirahim has his own magnificent abode trope for convenient use.

Because Ghirahim’s moods are so unpredictable and he tends to hide most of his emotions behind his ego, Link has learned to figure them out by Ghirahim’s eating habits, since Ghirahim doesn’t actually need to eat. His choice in cuisine tends to change depending on what’s going on in his head. For example, when Ghirahim is feeling particularly good after a great shag about something, he demands the most ridiculous delicacies available. His favourite is Mogma meat which Link is repulsed by. When Ghirahim is in a particularly bad mood, he becomes impatient and can’t be bothered with all the fineries, so he resorts to readily available food that takes no time to prepare. Like the demon equivalent of two minute noodles. When he’s brooding, he hardly eats at all. Suffice to say he barely ate anything the entire time he was chasing down Zelda, because he was so pissed off.

When the sword was initially bound to Link, Ghirahim managed to make him think that Link could only control the sword, and that his needs or wants had no sway over the demon himself. It wasn’t until they had a fight and Link ordered Ghirahim to get out of his sight (causing Ghirahim to forcibly retreat into the sword) that Link realised he’d fallen for it. He’s never quite gotten over that.

Some of Ghirahim’s nature changes depending on the nature of his master at the time. With Demise as his master, Ghirahim was much more bloodthirsty and not above killing anything and everything that got in his way (besides Link, obviously). With Link, he’s mellowed somewhat. While he’s still capable of flying into a blinding fury at the drop of a hat, Link’s easygoing attitude means he tends to resort to trickery and clever traps to get what he wants, rather than mass homicide. 

Before the bonding, Link was concerned that he wouldn’t be able to wield the blade at all because of the sheer size of the stupid thing. When they actually performed the ritual, they realised the blade had reshaped itself to be more fitting to it’s new master. While the hilt and pommel retained the same shape as it had as Demise’s weapon, the blade itself became thinner and sleeker, resembling the master sword (much to Ghirahim’s disgust). The whole thing also diminished in size so Link could easily utilise it with one hand. 

Link is trying to learn Ghirahim’s native language. It provides the demon with hours of fun because Link is so bad at it. 

Zelda is aware of what the blade Link now carries actually is, but she never says anything. The other Skyloft residents have no idea because they never saw it save for Groose, who was too concerned with Zelda’s wellbeing when Demise first appeared. Groose never took the time to observe Ghirahim’s original blade closely enough.

The only time Link actively orders Ghirahim around is when they’re getting it on. They both get little thrills of pleasure out of it.

but still

And I don’t mean the little one in Hyrule Historia.

I want an adaption like the other ones. ((Ocarina of Time, Four Swords, ect.))

Can you imagine Ghirahim in manga form?

like cause you know at first link was like 

“holy fucking shit what the fuck he’s so creepy”

but then he was like this

“fuck you asshole im gonna fuck you up you don’t intimidate me anymore”

and then ghirahim at first

“lolol he’ll never be able to beat me. he’s just a human”

but then he’s like 

“fuck shit i underestimated this brat. why can’t i win?”
