What if Shmi Skywalker never died? What if Anakin Skywalker never turned to the Dark Side? What events do we have the power to change, and what's set in stone? How would the galaxy heal from the Clone Wars? How would the fallen Jedi Order and the corrupt Republic reform? This story is an AU scenario written by an artist who wanted to explain her alternate ending art with a story that grew to take on a mind of its own. TW: this story is PG-13. There are graphic descriptions of violence, death, murder, terrorism, and mild swearing. Read at your own discretion. You can find my art @cat_does_the_arts on Instagram :)

A relationship between an internationally praised athlete and a straight A student who hates any kind of attention is bound to go wrong. But these two college students don't care about the odds. While Link works hard on recovering from a traumatic injury, Zelda is trying her best to juggle the school's expectations, her Father's upper class life style, and the anxiety of a million eyes prying on her relationship.

Link is the star athlete of Hyrule University and Zelda an exceptional scholar. They should be focusing on school and sports, but they keep getting distracted by each other. This fanfic includes characters from the Zelda franchise, but mainly from botw and aoc.
