Alright, a new Idea for the new day.
Seeing as how y/n (or player) is from the modern day she has a different set of standards for what is and is not appropriate contact, clothing, or speech than the Chain and some of it... Varies oddly. Like... In weird ways that will often throw the Chain. For instance. Clothing styles. She has a completely different set of what's uncomfortable to expose and what's not than the Chain would expect which becomes clear probably the first time she comes across a set of shorts she can wear on one hot day while they're all in some beach area (either Wild or Wind's time). The collective Chain nearly all has a heart attack when she comes striding out from where ever in shorts that are far shorter than anything they'd ever wear (but even still not as short as shorts we have access to) and the equivalence of a sports bra and runs for the water. Any attempts to convince her to cover her up are lost once she points out that for her time she's dressed modestly and there's literally no one else around to offend. (Although in their minds it's more like who else will get to see their wonderful beautiful Goddess's skin than who she might offend) Unless of course she's somehow offending them in which case she'll cover back up. Cue several sputtering red faced heroes trying to tell her she doesn't have to while also trying to not look too eager for her to just enjoy her new found shorts and the water.
If anyone happens to stumble upon this beach they will meet a swift end somewhere where she'll never find out. Bugs should really mind their place and keep their eyes to themselves.
This later translates to Gerudo Town when the first thing Wild does is go in and buy her her very own desert outfit and if he happened to also pick up some matching jewelry and got the outfit in her favorite colors? Well, maybe she'll want to wear it more. Especially whenever they're somewhere hot. Of course you can bet every single one of them ended up with a set of desert voe clothes which they proudly wear the entire time they're in the desert. Maybe you'll look at them more too if they're also wearing less.
What they didn't expect is that you would happily wear the desert clothes in literally any area you considered mildly 'summer hot'. This has led to them watching you like a set of hawks in places like Twilight's castle town during an admittedly pretty warm summer day and making sure to keep wandering hands from insects strangers away from you. Wars literally stepping between you and wandering gazes without you knowing it and Sky wrapping his sailcloth around you and over you to 'help prevent sunburn' keep their gazes off of you you're not a piece of meat to devour they don't deserve youinsectsthewholelotofthemlookAWAYFROMHERSHE'SNOTYOURSSHE'STHEIRSTHEIRS THEIRS
The Gerudo outfit is both blessing and curse for them. Eventually though their wonderful goddess hears some of the the words the filth town might be saying of her and feels self-conscious about how the outfit may not be appropriate in certain areas outside the desert and winds up retreating to change into something more covering. On one hand she's covered now but on the other? They're pissed that the filthyinsectsunwantedbastardsbugsgossipers people made her so self-conscious as to feel uncomfortable enough to change outfits. And let's not even get started on what some of the gossip may have been. How does one woman wind up with a small personal army of such attractive fighters anyways? And with the way she dresses? It leaves plenty to the imagination. So even if the men weren't catcalling everyone would gladly gossip of the things she must have done to have such a devoted group following her like lost puppies. On second thought. Perhaps it had better not be Castle Town in any of their worlds because THEY WOULD BURN THE WHOLE PLACE TO THE GROUND with words and gossip like that. At the very least some tongues would be lost.
And now let's go on with speech. At one point someone mentioned on anon on another blog that something they will often say is something along the lines of "Well, fuck me then." if something went wrong for them. And like... I also do that? So of course all I can imagine is the first time y/n (or player) college girl that she is, doing exactly that and the immediate various reactions the Chain might have. Not only is she more straight with her words getting right to the point and with an almost brutal honesty that will absolutely throw them this girl is capable of effectively sending their souls onto the astral plane by accidentally dropping a plate and just muttering "Oh, fuck me."
She's probably nearly killed at least one of them with a similar comment that sent the poor Link in question choking half to death.
Or imagine one of the boys helping her with something and she just exclaims happily that she could kiss them for the help. Enjoy the image of a blushing Wars who points out that she already gives them cheek kisses but he wouldn't complain and a smug y/n absently joking that that's not the kind of kiss she meant before giving him just a cheek kiss and bouncing off unaware that the poor captain can't breath shecould'vekissedhimandheblewit.
And now to the contact section of this. I'm just going to go with a scenario here.
Assuming they have more medieval or renaissance dance styles I'm going to also assume that most of their dancing doesn't involve a lot of hip holding or close contact unless of course they're particularly close to the person in question. And with our girl being from the modern times and not knowing this (plus just how close some of modern dancing gets) I see her letting someone get way too familiar for that person's safety on accident.
Largely because to be fair to her she's basing all of her interactions off how the Chain treats her and the Chain is very familiar with her. They snuggle her at night and pull her into hugs to sniff her hair sometimes and feel her in their arms. So of course the first time they come across a festival and she wants to dance they all take their turns holding her close and bouncing her around themselves for each turn until some pest manages to sneak his way in for a round and immediately pulls.her.by.the.hips.and.intimately.close. (he'stouchIngherhe'stooclosetooclosetoocloseHOWDAREHE) the only reason no one lost it right then and there is because Time was the next to dance and was quick to break the pair up. ...And also because they don't want to scare her away or ruin her enjoyment of the festival.
Their beautiful Darling however was none the wiser that her almost dance partner insectpestfilth had effectively insulted her by pulling her so close likesomecheapwhore. So while she's enjoying her dance with Time the boys are fuming and plotting the demise of the filth that dared to touch their goddess at all in such a way.
He never makes it home. Legend and Sky see to that.
And don't even get me started on the fact she so freely and easily gives away kisses on the cheeks and foreheads. All of the hugs she loves to give. I'm not sure if that kind of contact is considered appropriate in any of the Hyrules unless you know the person closely. Y/n kissing Wild on the cheek with Wind snuggled up to her side and Sky napping with his head in her lap.
I mean on one hand I really like the idea Hyrule (the country) tends to be more carefree about some things than our own world but at the same time... I also like the idea that our modern girl is going to throw everyone into fits over some of the most basic bullshit she does. And who knows? Maybe they are more free with certain things than we are but more strict on others?
