Gift fic!

So, a very long time ago when I was posting The Nutcracker, I offered up a drabble to the person who figured out what characters I named Zelda's mother (Violet) after (Vio from Four Swords and Violet, one of the Seven Maidens who pop up occasionally). Nobody got both, but the first person who got one right was PitFTW on ff.net. She requested a ( Read more... )

D'awwwwwwww!

For someone who says they aren't good at writing romance...
The unconventional twist to the prompt was brilliant. The (budding) romance was done very well, in my humble opinion. I loved it! I smiled throughout the whole last half and was grinning like an idiot at those last few paragraphs.

My only bone to pick is very minor. As a fencer, I think the choice of Link fighting sabre style suits him well. However, I don't know that Link would be carrying his sabre on his back without it being in a carrying bag of some sort. Of course, I may be wrong, and it was in a bag, but that was just a small bit I noticed.

:) Excellent job though. I love long drabbles.

Aw, I'm glad you enjoyed it and thought the romance was okay. Yay, it made you smile! :) And, oh, hey, another fencer! I did foil, not saber, but I think Link would choose the latter. I imagined him carrying all of his gear in a bag slung over his shoulder, with the grip sticking out of the top (so Zelda could notice and comment on it; he doesn't have the money to afford something nicer and bigger, poor thing), but I suppose that wasn't very clear. Thanks for your kind words and for pointing that out to me! :D

"...and able to tear me limb from limb without breaking a nail. Probably." Brilliant.

Sweet, in character, and to the point. I really loved this <3 the last part was my favorite, and I must admit I was smiling like an idiot for the most part of your story. Thanks for sharing!

Yeah, don't underestimate the princess. :D I'm glad you liked it and that it made you smile! (The end of it is my favorite, too.) Thank you for your comment! ^_^

That was really cute. It had me blushing a little while reading, haaaah! It's nice to see some Modern ZeLink every now and then.

Ooooh, tasty Zelda fic!
Okay, out of daze. There was a joyful smile of my face the whole time, but I had to pause and lol at "Why do the gods do this to me?" His reaction feels So romantically canon!
I had never read RL!modern Zelda fic before. Well, I was really not dissapointed. :)
