Absolutely love how Link's most recent text post was "does anyone know where to buy vases"

[piking]

I love how this AU shows Zelda's nerdy side. It was clear throughout the story of botw that she's really smart, and at the front of ancient tech research. It's awesome to see that reflected here.

People don’t realize how long it takes to make a 2 minute good animation clip. And especially for 1 person, it could takes several months. Clap it up for sharlene for showing us outstanding work 👏

[AlphaSeagull]

Link literally canonically has super-human reaction speed and reflexes, so he must've been REALLLY distracted to get hit by that ball

[supershinystar]

I like how the first thing Sidon does when Link gets hit by the ball is make a selfie and post it.

The fact that Revali replied "HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA" to the "the hero has fallen" post is both insanely great and perfectly in character.

[gentrydean]

He protected Zelda from harm, but could not prevent himself from getting whacked in the face...

Very fitting of Link.

[TRquiet]

1:48 I can’t believe Link’s bio is just “hyah.” That is pristine.

[lavenderotaku]

Link’s friends giving him ALL the shit about having a crush is both adorable and the most in-character thing ever. I love it.

[oculusveritas]

The fact that Revali commented "HAHAHAHAHAHA" on the picture of Link on the ground is such an incredible attention to detail!!

[GreenGork]

"THE HERO HAS FALLEN" was the funniest yet cutest thing i've seen for quite a bit

[QuinBoBin]

These are always so adorable thank you for making them!
I love the Korok keychain on Zelda’s phone

[theonewhosellspeace]

Love how Revali commented "HAHAHAHAHAHA" on the post of Link after getting hit by Sidon and Teba's soccer ball

[Daimyo]

Seriously, Breath of the Wild and Tears of the Kingdom actually makes care a lot for Link and Zelda. These two are my favorite of all their incarnations.

zelda's profile:"Courage needs not to be remembered, for it is never forgotten."*epic, heroic noises*
link's profile:hyah

[Dastankbeets]

Love how Zelda actually talks and Link just makes ‘hrrg hnn hyah’ noises

[pseudonymous]

i love how link's bio is just hyah, also his profile picture holding a pizza reminded me of the time when link just straight up ate a rock without hesitation in age of calamity

[Gianfl]

We need a kickstarter to turn this in a 12 seasons anime, love it

Zelda:“ Courage needed not to be remembered for it is never forgotten ”
Link:” *hyah* ”

[cave_spooder]

Zelda's bio: "Courage need not be remembered, for it is never forgotten."
