While Zelda's ambitions send her higher, Link has been searching for a way down. His smile is perfect, his lyrics are better. The magazines love him and so do the charts and every time someone finds his albums in the stores, his pockets grow heavier. His name is adored everywhere and what could ever be better than that?

"You know, you should stop by my place on Tuesday," Zelda comments in a tone so jarringly sweet he's reeled right back in. He shakes his head, certain he's misheard her. "What? I-" "Our cleaning lady comes by on Tuesdays," she smiles. "Maybe she can vacuum all those cobwebs out of your ears-since your head is so pathetically void of any intelligent thought." Link slams the pencil down flat. "If you hate tutoring me so much, why don't you just quit already?" It's Link most daunting adventure yet-High school! Having just moved to the big city, Link is struggling in more ways than one: Relentless bullying, no friends besides his sassy little sister, and to top it all off, he's failing! But when tutoring pits him against the most popular girl in school, he realizes he might not be the only one in need of rescuing.

Zelda, the governor's daughter, is an aspiring author who can only write in coffee shops. Forced by her father to move away from Central, and her beloved coffee shop, she must find a replacement. She finds this in "Hyrule Coffee," owned by a kind young man her own age. When he proposes a deal to her, how will it change both of their lives? Story is the fluffiest I've ever written, but it also has much deeper subjects. It changes drastically near the end.

in the kingdom of Hyrule, duty comes before desire. Princess Zelda carries the weight of a kingdom destined to face ruin, bound by expectations, prophecy, and the silent pressure of a future she cannot escape. Link, a newly appointed Royal Guard, has always believed his purpose is simple-protect the kingdom, no matter the cost. But everything changes the moment their paths begin to cross. What starts as duty slowly becomes something neither of them can name. A shared understanding. A fragile connection. A silence that speaks louder than words. Yet with the Calamity looming closer, and the kingdom watching their every move, they are forced into a choice neither of them are ready for: to follow what they feel, or to bury it beneath duty and destiny. Because in Hyrule... even love must wait for permission.

prequel of between duty and her smile :)

A coming-of-age one-shot set in Hyrule, following a young recruit who grows from an inexperienced swordsman into a Royal Guard under the kingdom's strict training and expectations. After years of discipline, sacrifice, and relentless growth, he finally earns his place among Hyrule's elite knights. But his promotion ceremony becomes more than just a formal rite of passage. In the presence of Princess Zelda, the atmosphere of the castle shifts-turning a moment of duty into something quietly personal and emotionally charged. A fleeting glance, a soft smile, and a growing awareness blur the line between admiration and something deeper. As celebration follows ceremony, the protagonist is left questioning what is real, what is imagined, and what it means to serve a kingdom... when the Princess herself seems to see him.

Season 3 of the YOU series

With one last summer before college, Zelda is forced from her books and other introverted habits to be a camp counselor at Lake Hylia. Her plush mattress is traded for a cabin cot and the mosquitos are out to eat her alive but it's what her parents wanted to teach her some social skills before the dorms. It's just one summer after all. Link is on his way to the army after joining the staff for the last time at the summer camp he was practically raised in. He's determined to make the most of it, and that means teaching the new girl all the ins and outs he's been learning since the seventies. And maybe it means getting her to kiss him too.
