"He would not fucking know that word." the evolution of "He would not fucking say that."
there were more!! rrargh how does "middle of his stomach" turn into "mhis ch"???
"shetstil'dlended" is decipherable enough as "she'd still ended" but where did "about" go? and that extra "." with a missing "s"?
an extra "no" and an "I" out of no where? and "mot" is just gone from "no other motion"
google docs? what the fuck is this? what did my writing do to you? you mangled it.

honestly much prefer this changed timeline than the official one. makes a lot of sense and he explains through it pretty well.
I think that my fatal flaw as an artist is that idk what the hell a “doodle” is. I’ll be doing a full render with handpicked colors and texture effects and still call it a quick doodle. Where do I draw the line
Thought it would've been funny to make hehe @limited-hero

you understand him
Hmm, what if when the Skyloftians left the sky they vaguely still looked like Zonai. Like they had much longer ears, little markings that resembled a closed third eye, and slightly sharper teeth. But after a few generations they turn into Hylians while those that stayed up in the clouds turned into the Zonai we know.
Four Swords Sanctuary writing discord server incoming! :D I put more effort than perhaps I should have into this. This is niche, so please read!
This server aims to curate a space and a community who will have fun discussing the Four Swords manga, as well as writing stories as a practice and an art.
Who will enjoy this server: anyone 16+ who enjoys FS manga meta, those who write or consume FS manga fan stories (of whatever format or genre that may be), or those who are familiar with the manga and would like to better their writing and storycraft through community.
Who will not enjoy this server: anyone 15 or younger (we love you, but this is not the place for you!), those who want a place to talk about general Zelda stuff or Linkverses, those unfamiliar and uninterested in becoming familiar with the FS manga, those that dislike shipping, or those not looking to connect with other creators or consumers.
If you still are interested, and would like to visit (or stay forever!), please click read more below!
If you have more questions, please click read more below!
Here is the Link (aha) to the server! I encourage you to spread this around, especially with people outside of Tumblr. It shouldn't ever expire.

Do the blins count? DO THE BLINS COUNT?? Are they sentient enough creatures to know sign language?!?!
aaaaaAAAAAAAA
anyway i'm kissing everyone who has memory issues regardless of what they stem from. i don't think anyone gets just how frustrating it is to Not Know things or have pieces of your life missing from your memory unless they experience and the way we're treated for our lack of memory is real shitty! ngl! so. kissing you all even though i'm a dyke.
HELLO KINGDOM HEARTS PEOPLE
by popular demand i took pictures of mostly every KH character for hair/facial/expression references for you to use! if you found my previous references helpful, consider sharing this so more people can find it & use these!
please let me know if there is any issues with the link or anything sora lost my braincell: ARCHIVE LINK
yes sora & riku get their own special little folder & full expression sheets
love it when half awake thoughts are actually pretty cool ideas
so in a lot of legend of zelda fanworks and aus i've found, the creator has link speaking in sign language which is pretty cool in my opinion
But that's got me thinking; what about the other denizens of Hyrule? Not all languages on earth use a universal sign language, so i imagine with such exaggerated diversity (completely different species) in Hyrule, they wouldn't either. Therefore I have come up with some vague-ish ideas of what the other peoples of Hyrule might use as a method of nonverbal communication. I'm using Breath of the Wild/Tears of the Kingdom as the base for this.
also note I'm not versed in sign language at all, so there will be mistakes.
I'll start simple, Gerudo.
The Gerudo people are most similar to Hylians in appearance, both are basically humans though they are treated as a different 'species' as far as I can tell. But it still makes sense to me that their sign would be most similar to Hylian sign, just some words might get a bit lost in translation.
Next up, Gorons.
Due to their bulkier appearance and larger hands, their sign might include their arms more prominently. Certain motions and swings might be dangerous for the other species, but other Gorons would be able to take an accidental hit. They do still use their hands and fingers, but less so than the more human-like species, and the motions would be more like a game of charades.
My favorite, Rito.
Due to their fingers also being feathers, Rito use their feet by tapping their claws, clenching toes, or stomping. For more complicated words they lower their wings so their feather-fingers are in view of the person already looking down and combine motions alongside their feet. Rito sign isn't very common however due to the difficulty of standing, signing, and focusing on what they're even trying to say without stumbling. It's even more difficult to understand while in the air. Only those with impeccable balance even bother unless necessary.
And finally, Zora.
If you look at the Zora's design, their gills are along/near the latissimus dorsi, an easy place to see both on land and in water. Due to this and how water can get extremely dark the further you dive, I imagine it would be pretty cool if the Zora could activate some sort of bioluminescence in their gills to flash in sequences similar to morse code. This would make it easy to see even underwater, and the ability to essentially shut the light off would keep them safe from underwater threats. This idea also comes from how I think it would be difficult to verbally communicate underwater and while swimming at fast speeds.
Like I said, I've limited this to botw/totk for simplicity's sake, but I know there's all sorts of different species in the other games, so it might be cool to explore their nonverbality one day.

When Vanitas was left alone in the Keyblade Graveyard with nothing more than his emotions:
i might be a little obsessed oops
Was having a conversation about the different types of villains in Legend of Zelda, and my friend mentioned how Zelda herself could actually be a pretty decent villain in her own right. She holds the Triforce of Wisdom, so she-in theory-could outsmart Ganondorf and it's a shame this aspect hasn't been used before. So we came up with a few of basic idea for this au(some of these i came up with on my own):
Due to her part of the Triforce, Zelda would have the capacity to be very manipulative and could somehow convince the entire kingdom she's a good person while doing some pretty bad stuff.
They're in a war against the Gerudo because Ganondorf sees her evil and wants to liberate Hyrule from her reign, but Zelda spins this to her people as the Gerudo invading them for the throne.
Link would have some sort of history with her, and therefore completely trusts her, which lets her manipulate him into doing basically warcrimes while giving him 'explanations' that placate him when he starts voicing his confusion and concerns.
She keeps him on a metaphorical leash inside the castle and even when sending him out to fight or other things i dunno and on one of these missions against the enemy, he's about to kill an innocent Gerudo before a wounded warrior jumps in front of his sword, killing her. For some reason this is what snaps him out of Zelda's control and is just stupefied by the carnage around him, letting the 'enemy' knock him out and take him prisoner.
When he wakes up he interrogated by the man himself Ganondorf, holding a necklace in his hand that he took from Link, talking about its evil magics before actually asking questions.
The necklace was something Zelda had given Link when they became friends, but she had seen how good he was at fighting so put a spell on it to keep him under her control. Not direct mind control, but more like... fervent nudging him to be obedient to his friend that he trusts.
Eventually they team up and fight Zelda but yeah got nothing for in between that lol
I would love to make some sort of comic of this but i'll have to flesh it out much more, and this isn't even taking into account all my other projects 😰
