A Nice Change, for Once...
While browsing on Elfwood, I noticed a picture that got a Mod's Choice recently. It's Legend of Zelda (Ocarina of Time/Majora's Mask-era), and is a cute picture of Link and the female cast enjoying the summer weather. Here's the link -- if your work has objections to shirtless male elves Hylians, nude Zoras or girls in bikinis, you might not want to click the link. (Also, it has The Spoiler About Zelda from OoT in the description).
Anyway, besides that it's pretty, I linked it for this comment by the artist in the description.
I also wanted to draw a piece where the girls weren't actually chasing or fighting over Link- or the other way around -It was done at the point in my fandom where I just stopped caring *at all* about the ridiculous fan bashing of one series girl because so-and-so thought so-and-so would or should be Link's gal. The fact that it doesn't matter, and that it's personal opinion, sure doesn't stop the bashing from being insane and juvenile to no ends though. >> SO PLEASE, NO TALK OF PAIRINGS << If you can't tell, I'm just tired and old, and can't take it anymore ;)
Because of all that, I made Zelda and Malon friends here- Something I thought we need to see more of in fan art. Yup, they're both holding hands, take it to mean what ever you want it too, but I mean: They're about the same age, they both lost a lot when Hyrule was ravaged by Ganon, Link helped them both get it all back, they're both people who helped Link a lot, they both seem like strong girls that are willing to do what's right -they have a lot in common in my mind- why shouldn't they be friends? Why should they fight!? Over a guy!?! That's a petty personality trait I refuse to apply to either.
