My silly little Zelda headcannons
teehee here's another one while I procrastinate something that's due tomorrow ✌️😭
Sorry if not every Zelda is listed, I just did the most major ones
Skyward Sword
✧She LOVES to do fiber crafts, but her absolute favourite is embroidery and she's very good at it
✧She met link when she was young so I hc that she embroidered all the little details on Link's clothes for him as a gift for his birthday each year.
✧And also that after the events of SS, she and link started dating and when they grew old and had children, she became the 'elder'/leader of skyloft.
Ocarina of Time
✧After sending Link back to the past to relive his childhood, she told the tale about the hero of time to her people, made statues and stained glass windows of him in his honour but she never ever told anyone else any more details than the surface level information. Except for her children and descendants when she felt that they were at an age where they wouldn't treat her words as if they were just some story she made up.
For this one, I imagined her telling one of her children about the hero of time and how she helped him and her child just went "nu-uh you're making that up" and then she just decided not to tell her children more about the literal hero of legend she helped to her children when they're like 7 for a bedtime story
✧"Sheik" was an alter ego she made to hide from Ganondorf, yes.
✧BUT
✧It was also a nickname that Impa called her during her training and called her in private
Twilight Princess
✧Most beautiful eyeliner in Hyrule 100%
✧When she got possessed by Ganondorf, you know when people say that they had an out of body experience and they observe their own body doing things from an outside perspective? That.
Wind Waker
✧She has more 'refined' and 'regal' clothing passed down by her mother, but chooses to just wear her normal pirate outfit because she doesn't want her fancy clothing to get damaged by the normal to-dos of being a pirate captain
✧Ganondorf explained her role in this world as the holder of the triforce of wisdom and tbh she did NOT like it one bit
✧Why can't she just sail the ocean in peace??
✧But I guess being a princess is nice? It's no different from being a pirate captain in her eyes
✧The cannon she fires Link out of, she has 100% fired ALL of her crew out of it at one point
Breath of the Wild
No totk for this one sorry lol
✧She secretly resents her dad. All he seems to do is pressure her all the time and scold her for wanting to know more about the sheikah tech
✧She sees Mipha as her best friend and they have sleepovers when either of them don't have anything to do (which tbh is literally once in a blue moon)
✧Has literally tried EVERYTHING to get her powers to work
✧doesn't listen to advice about unlocking her powers after being told she had to drink the water of the spring of power once as a prank and she actually did it thinking that it would unlock her powers, but it didn't and she just drank dirty spring water 🤮🤮
