I Feel Like The Most Interesting Aspect Of Rhoam (to Me At Least) That Not Enough People Talk About Is

i feel like the most interesting aspect of rhoam (to me at least) that not enough people talk about is the dissonance of post botw link and zelda's memories of him? like, zelda remembers a king who maybe loved her, but even so was a terrible father, who put duty before sentimentality, who constantly pressured her, restricted her, and was just an all-around asshat and a prick. link remembers a fun, mischievous old man, who was the first person he met after his hundred year nap, who was the person who taught him how to navigate the world, to use an axe, to hunt, to cook.

i just feel like link would have trouble linking the old man to the king, and zelda the king to the old man. i feel like link doesn't like cooking the spicy meat and seafood fry around zelda. i feel like zelda feels ever-so-slightly bitter whenever link uses the paraglider, or wears the warm doublet. i feel like zelda sometimes wonders what her life would've been like, if only her father was the old man, instead of the king.

I think molduga should be able to dig through the surface and as a result I think that when exploring the Gerudo Depths in TOTK there should've been a random chance to get a molduga falling from the ceiling onto your head. This probably would've made the game worse but more importantly it would've been really funny.

artist in denial of being depressed: omg this 2 month long art block has been crazy... sorry i haven't updated any of my fics in a long while! it's just been super difficult to daydream! so weird that i've lost a little bit of passion for my current comfort character and ocs... this couldn't possibly have any implications or alternative explanations

about a month ago I started replaying all Zelda games in chronological order and ever since then I've been toying with the idea of drawing all/most of the incarnations in some cohesive manner.

I've now finally settled on these Mucha-inspired diptychs, starting of course with the game that started it all!
