I got inspired to design my own version of Link and Zelda and may have gotten a little bit attached woops.
EXTRA DETAILS BELOW IF UR INTERESTED:
For the timeline, these two are placed after Twilight Princess. TP!Zelda is this Zelda’s great grandmother.
Link works for her parent’s potion shop, she delivers their potions to people and general stores all across Hyrule. I imagine in a game setting you would deliver potions as part of side quests and use the shop’s alchemy station as a cooking mechanic.
The goggles that Link wears are magic goggles gifted to her by Impa. I can see it functioning as a “Lens of Truth” type item that allows her to see through illusions (which becomes very relevant).
Unlike her other counterparts, this Zelda is HATED by her people. They don’t like the way she disregards people’s feelings in favor of finding the most logical way to solve civil conflicts. Awful rumors are often spread about her. She doesn’t notice this.
Zelda was given combat training by Impa mostly bc of Hyrule’s history of being taken over by evil. She wanted to be able to defend herself and her people should something like that happen during her time. She also just respects Impa a lot as a mentor figure.
Link had a major crush on Zelda when they were kids. Now that they’re no longer close she thinks she got over it, but girl is in denial big time. If the subject is brought up, she gets rly pathetic and tsundere abt it.
Zelda sees Link as weak and a bit of a thorn in her side. She hates how stubborn and reckless she is. Part of her wishes Link would give up and tells her to “stop pretending you’re a hero” bc internally, she thinks Link will get herself killed and doesn’t want that.
They basically have that dynamic where they are rly brutal towards each other and have a lot of unprocessed feelings, but also ultimately know everything abt each other and will sacrifice themselves for the other no questions asked.
To elaborate on the plot stuff, basically Zelda gets trapped in a mirror which was actually a gateway to a “mirror world.” Its basically Hyrule but everything looks reversed and it kinda looks like a dark fucked up version of the SS Silent Realms.
When Zelda and Link both look into a reflective surface at the same time, they can see and talk to each other. This happens the first time on complete accident btw.
Perchance these two learn that they have to work together to get Zelda back to Hyrule and in the process confront all their weird hangups abt each other and their awkward situationship. Who knows.

I copper coated a real mushroom (a gilled polypore) to create this unique necklace! What do you think? Should I make more jewelry with real mushrooms? 🍄🖤✨ . . . . #gilledpolypore #elctroformedjewelry #glassart #naturebonestudio #mushroom #forestcore #naturewitch #copperjewelry #artistsoninstagram #glasscrystal #fairycoreaesthetic #darkboho #mushroomjewelry #forestwitch #handcrafted https://www.instagram.com/p/CP04VHGnCz3/?utm_medium=tumblr
I like to think that as a kid, Glass would paint the triforce symbol on her hand to play pretend as the hero. Crystal wasn’t a fan of having to play the role of the princess who had to be saved, but would go along with it for Glass.
When Glass finds out she actually does have the spirit of the hero (and thus the triforce symbol appears on her hand) she proudly shows it off to Crystal, who thinks it’s just her pretending again lmao
Hi bestie! can I get some fun facts on your Zelda OC's?
Perhaps some stuff about Glass's childhood and the kinds of potions they make?
Michael, bless you for enabling me to talk abt my girls you’re a real one 🙏
Glass and Crystal are from this post btw
Since you asked about Glass’ childhood, I’ll start w/ her!
- She was born with a very weak constitution and she’s not magically inclined either. The most she can do w/ magic is use magic items like her goggles. She got into potion-making because she could make strength or stamina potions to make her stronger.
- She makes all kinds of potions really, she loves to experiment with all kinds of ingredients and effects. These experiments range from being fairly useful to unfit for Hylian consumption.
- Her parents don’t mind her using their alchemy station for experimenting, but she does have to pay for her own ingredients. So she started working for her parent’s business as a delivery girl (they don’t trust her with actually making the potions for their customers lmao).
- She has literally never used a sword in her life nor has she ever trained to use one. Impa does give her some pointers before heading off on her journey but she mainly relies on wit and potions of strength and dexterity.
Now for Crystal:
- She met Glass when they were around 5 years old. There was an illness spreading that affected the royal family, resulting in the queen’s death. Luckily, Glass’ parents managed to concoct a cure, which saved Crystal and her father.
- They played together a lot as kids, but over time Crystal became more distant. She hyper-focused on her training with Impa and researching Hyrule’s history (she finds the Twili Invasion and Hyrulean Civil War particularly interesting to read about)
- She’s very magically inclined, inheriting the goddess’ light magic. That being said, she doesn’t rly use her magic ever because she’s already strong. Why waste energy on using light magic when you can just beat them up.
- She is generally emotionally guarded, but around Glass she shows a more mischievous side. She likes to mess around with her and will make a lot of dry jokes at her expense. She is completely oblivious to Glass’ crush on her though.
