kin memories rentry!
botw zelda
● not sure where chronologically but me and link had a picnic and he gave me a flower
● again not sure where it is chronologically where but i vaguely remember throwing something at revali. he was a really good friend tbh, especially when we could both complain about link before i learned to like him
● after memory #13- i got out of the water and dried off and link was being super sweet and braided my hair. he also helped me up onto my horse and gave me a hug before we separated and went to our seperate quarters
● went to gerudo town to visit urbosa after she became a champion, don't remember too much about it but we had tea and an assortment of fruits native to the area
● on the way to the spring of wisdom me and link stopped at the base of the mountain to camp and he gave me his coat cause no way i would make it up mount lanayru in this
though i think we forgot it coming back down the mountain
● spring of wisdom! i don't remember a whole lot, just that it was really really cold
● inside calamity ganon's cocoon... be warned this will be very descriptive so!! first of all, it was really dark, but like when you cover your eyes with your hands and there's still a bit of light that was dark red. also it was full of a vicious liquid like syrup, except instead of syrup it was more a mixture of blood and vinegar, but it also had breathable air somehow? and i remember it just smelled horrible- like rotting meat and sulfur and the way metal chain necklaces taste. now for the more sensory hell part, the best way i can compare it is to the womb. like how i imagine the inside of the uterus feels. except it's several layers thicker, and is squishy but also solid at the same time, and is constantly moving and pulsing and every time the calamity moved i could feel it move too. and because of the fluid i can't move almost at all, and all of my muscles are cramped and sore. also there was an ever-present faint churning sound and a heartbeat with it that kinda made me feel like i was going insane and i hate the way heartbeats sound/feel
● the entire sealing away ganon scene just from 1st person instead of 3rd, not a whole lot of words to describe it but it was really draining like i could feel the power leaving my body but also satisfying
● vaguely the part where she's talking about vah ruta stopping its functionality
● making the monument that we see in totk- "for the souls we lost in the calamity...." as much as me and father weren't on good terms, i miss him
skull kid
● stealing a bottle of chateau romani. i think it was tatl and before i count drink it she accidentally knocked it out of my hand and it shattered
● the first time majora piloted my body. for a while they were just in my brain and i still moved and talked for myself, but then they decided it was their turn and they spent a good amount of time staring at my hands and flexing them. they even laughed a bit at it for some reason. i wish i knew why...
● having a telepathic conversation with majora. i don't remember what it was about but it wad long and they talked (thought?) a lot about it. it kinda hurt my brain
● generally just the weird-ass feeling of majora being in my body and controlling it for me. they were kinda rude which i didn't like but they made it up to me by letting me have almost or full control sometimes
● majora spent a good amount of time in my head prodding at my memories, at least in the beginning, and eventually after asking why they did that, they just showed me one of theirs. it was dark and mostly empty and carried such a strong scent of flowers, though underneath it there was a strong, but weaker, stench of rotting meat
● i remember they told me this: "the dead care not of your sins, nor your heinous crimes. rather, they hold you with the intent of the next. and behold, for i am the next, and the lies of the gods shall be null, no longer, and forsaken." i don't know what they meant by it
oot zelda
● a summer from the year before link and ganondorf and the whole shebang. it's kind of a blur but i remember stealing cookies and visiting kakariko village, as well as impa starting to teach me basic self-defense
● sitting in the grass in the courtyard before ganondorf took over picking flowers and impa kinda just standing off to the side watching
● vaguely the taste of lon lon milk- like normal milk but also slightly like raspberries
● a training session with impa. i think i was like ten or eleven. i was really sore afterwards and didn't really learn that much but it was fun. and helpful.
● late summer. sunset three years after ganondorf's takeover. i'm sheik at this point so i guess this could be an exception where i do kin sheik but like this still feels in a zelda kin way but anyways. playing the goddess harp and sitting at the base of a tree. impa still didn't trust me enough to be on my own, so she was over watching from about ten feet away and some other sheikah boy. i don't remember his name but he had a warm smile. there was also a soft breeze with air that lingered on from the heights of the season.
● nothing too clear or specific bit during my time as sheik i spent a lot of time exploring the forests of hyrule and learned how to make a few medicinal pastes
fi
● it's hardly clear at all, but being created. it started off as just a small flicker of consciousness, then my first thought, the feeling of a body, and then being pulled out of the sword. nothing beyond that point though
● one of mine and scrapper's little telepathic conversations. except he (i remember that ld-301s scrapper preffered "he" pronouns, even if, as a robot, has no sex or sense of gender) was the one to start it. i believe he was trying to flirt with me. i don't remember all of the details, but he did call me "sweet," "charming," and his "mistress fi" title. looking back it's kinda funny to me. i miss him a lot
● during the era of twilight- i wasn't in my most clear-thoughted state since the start of my eternal sleep, but battle made me more alert. link was weilding me, and we were fighting some bokoblins. he spun around and slashed at them and stuck me in the gut of one
eow zelda
● the general isolation of being royalty. my only real friend was impa and the son of one of the guards who would sometimes come with him. also my father just generally restricting me from the world because "i had a duty to hyrule as their princess and future queen"
● i vaguely remember as a young teenager during my rebellious phase i chopped off all of my hair and ran away because i had gotten into an argument. i went to the eternal forest because i felt oddly pulled there, but before i could head inside of it one of the guards caught up with me and took me home. i had also taken a fair amount of my father's valuables
● getting my cat a few months after the one above this, kinda a peace offering from my father and when our relationship turned around and we became more friendly with each other
● a whole lot of self-isolation. the guard's son started training and so i didn't get to see him anymore. i did become a lot more bookish and intelligent though.
● when i first met tri!! they were such a good friend and they were always a little warm to the touch
● a detour where we set a picnic and had smoothies with dohma. she also gave me a pretty bracelet and she also took me to her room after and we just talked for hours
saria
● whenever link first was dropped off by his mother at the entrance to kokiri village. since i've always been one of the most important people other than mido i was the one to first hold him and he was a very cute baby
● hanging out with mido and link and all of the others kokiri in general. we climbed trees a lot and would tell made-up stories to each other
