fuck yes thank you eren. this will b specifically for botw link

What arospec identities do they have? 

aro (& ace) probably. in hyrule i can’t imagine there’s a well-used or known word for aro identities (at least among hylians), so the most general one that exists is what link goes by. there’s lots of overlapping aro identities in our world, so something like quoiromantic might be a good descriptor of what i imagine link feels – someone who loves his friends in such a deep and profound sense that it could very well be seen as romantic by others, but to link, it’s just how he is. 

How proud of being arospec are they?

he’s just existing, man. to him, it’s just how he is, and it’s not something worth being proud over. not that he’s ashamed, just that it’s not out of the ordinary to him. he knows he’s a little different than others, but tries not to think too hard about it. 

Do they prioritize their arospec identity over any others?

i think so. i think his arospec identity is his entire attraction-related identity, since he probably feels the same way abt sexual attraction - which is basically a shrug emoji. his gender identity might come above that depending on what exactly it is.

though i think he would prioritize it a bit, since he loves his friends more than anything in the world.

Are they out? If so, how did they come out, and to whom?

to zelda, without a doubt. after their initial talk described in canon (by her diary), they have a lot more like that. they become each other’s most trusted confidant & friend. when it was relevant to their discussion one time, link probably described how he felt to her (and afterwards zelda dragged him to the library and they looked for books that might have a label for such feelings, because there’s a book on just about everything in there). 

he might have also told mipha, too. they are, at least to me, childhood friends, and he loves and trusts her very much. i believe he could have told her at some point. 

as he got closer to the other champions he might have told them, too, if there was reason. to urbosa, he’d probably be looking for advice or guidance. to daruk, it might be a response to inquiries about a ‘special someone’ or ‘feelings for the princess.’ to revali, perhaps a more serious discussion that eventually establishes a friendship between them. 

How do they feel about romance? Romance-favorable? Romance-neutral? Romance-repulsed? Or does it fluctuate?

i think he fluctuates, mostly between neutral and favorable (repulsed happens but not very often). like i said, he has such strong love for his friends and is comfortable around them (including physical contact) that others can easily perceive it as romantic, but link’s heart is Just That Big. i think the idea of “””dating””” them makes him uncomfortable, though, cuz he doesn’t like them in that way. but it’s pretty darn close? he wouldn’t like others putting that label on him. 

Have they ever experienced arophobia? If so, how?

this is something that’s p personal to him, so he wouldn’t face purposeful arophobia directed at him. if he comes out, he might get some arophobic comments by people who don’t understand, thinking it’s a phase or mental illness or that it doesn’t exist and whatever. but for the most part, i don’t think he even outs himself to people he thinks might have that sort of response. 

How do they show their arospec pride?

he cuddles w his friends

Do they actively try to combat amatonormativity in their daily lives or elsewhere? If so, how?

nah, he just kinda deals w it. he’s livin his own life. 

Was it easy for them to label themselves arospec, or was there a long period of questioning? How many labels did they have to try before landing on the one they use now?

i think he went through a lot of confusion as to how he felt and whether it was “right” or “normal.” he might try to find labels at first, but eventually i think he’d go back to just WhateverTheFuck and try not to get hung up on defining his feelings too much.

Would they be interested in a QPR? Why or why not?

yes! i think he’d be in a QPR with zelda and mipha. 

Final thoughts?
