Fantiality by LoweFantasy
41 parts Complete
You'd think that when Kara and her friend, Amanda, are sucked into 'The Legend of Zelda,' Link and Dark Link would fall in love after many melodramatic scenes (there's only one bed, oHnOoOOO!), they'd have a great adventure, and all would be just peachy. But that isn't life. No one wants to hear their trauma is a video game, that though they're a princess they're doomed to one-sided love for good storytelling, or that their identity doesn't go beyond being a sub-boss for a water temple. But Kara and Amanda want to change that, which sets Miyomoto, the creator of 'The Legend of Zelda', out for their blood. And should he fail to kill them, there's always the flood to wipe things clean. Link/OC/Dark Link, OC/Ganondorf
Shame (TP Link x F.Reader) by Mickey8888
10 parts Complete Mature
Link knows you deserve better, but convincing you is like talking to a brick wall. You can't be swayed out of a toxic relationship due to deep insecurity, debt, and black mail. It isn't until you go too far in a hopeless situation that Link feels that he should've taken action sooner. Disclaimer/Warning: story includes adult themes of Suicide, rape, murder, abuse, and political themes. I do not own any of the Zelda characters, just my original plot line and original characters. I apologize ahead of time for lack of proof reading.
The Wonders of Fall; A Modern Zelink AU Story by Link-knight-177
20 parts Complete
Zelink AU Modern Fanfiction Link lives a miserable life. Every day it seems that the same exact events repeat themselves, like he's living in a loop. As an attempt to break his loop, Link's little sister Aryll and her friend Tetra make a goal to set him up with Tetra's older sister Zelda. With Thanksgiving weekend just around the corner, the two merge and each discover how special the other is. But what happens when other girls are involved? Neither one knows how things will turn out, but that makes the ride even more enjoyable. ~Clean and appropriate for all ages~ *yipee!* Cover art does not belong to me, I don't know who it belongs to. If it's yours and you want it taken down, let me know and I'll do that. No swearing in comments, or anything inappropriate please.

He's the hero, he should be alive. I miss him so much. (Y/n) has remained alive for 100 years. One hundred painstaking years. Each year that ticks by, she has no idea why she lives.

Her dead fiancé had come back to life with no memories at all. A Breath of You (Link x Reader) Breath of the Wild! #1 for the tag Breath of the Wild #1 FOR LINK X READER BABY LETS GO!

Soul Dancing (TP! Link x Reader) by BadTendenciess
17 parts Ongoing
REWRITTEN ⚠️WARNING⚠️ Possible Content: Abuse Smut Blood & Injury Sexual Assault Traumatic Events Please do not read for the sole purpose of smut. If that's all you're interested in, let me refer you to my book of lemons revolving around Link. Check my profile for it! (Currently drafted) For the sake of sanctity, you and most characters including Link will be 18+ present time. ▲ ▲ ▲ I always felt such a bond with him, one that ran deep like the temple of Lake Hylia, or so I've heard. Among the rest he was the only human I'd ever felt close to. But there was a problem. That bond only ran so deep as it hit steel within Link's soul, that of which never once had truly allowed passage of my being. I've always felt that perhaps our fondness of one another was barely mutual, but it became apparent to me the moment I felt his soul falter and stop dancing with mine. I thought I was his best friend. What was the reason? ▲ ▲ ▲ The soul is the only thing the hero carries along his reincarnations, bound to Hyrule's aid by the goddess Hylia. ▲ ▲ ▲ ⚠️ A slow burn romance. You're in for a weird ride. Also, story may not be for you if you personally do not like large Y/N character development. (Story is in the making, expect possible changes of story) Disclaimer: I do not own you or any of the characters accounted for. You belong to yourself of course, and the rest of TP's characters to Nintendo. Very few OC's will be present for plot development.
✔Happy Hurts 《Modern》 by Squishy2002
21 parts Complete Mature
《COMPLETE》 Link is a seven year old boy, who has lived in an foster care his whole life. He never talked to anyone that often, unless they spoke to him. You would see him as that one quiet, shy kid that reads in a corner. And, he was. He would get bullied because of it by the older kids at school. The only friends he had were Daruk, Urbosa, and Mipha. Then one day when he came back to the foster care after school a little surprise awaited him there that would change his life forever. ☡WARNING☡ If you get triggered by abuse, bullying, sexual abuse or anything related to this topic please read warnings before a chapter just in case to skip a chapter or skim over it. And I'll also write the warning before I start that section with one of those topics. So please be aware of those warnings for your sakes please! ♜extra information♖ ♛characters from: breath of the wild, twilight princess, orcarina of time, skyward sword ♕modern au ♛breath of the wild: Link and Zelda 《Edited as of 1/31/19 - 7/22/19》
✓Someday by Isla_Graves
22 parts Complete
After witnessing Link and Zelda's on and off relationship, Y/N had had enough. Link was always sad, Zelda was sad and confused. Everyone was just, done. Everyone needed a vacation, however, after the Calamity had struck, there was a lot of build and fixing up to do. Y/N is Zelda's younger sister, it was all good and well, until Link and Zelda started dating. One relationships ends, and a new one starts. *** A Linkxreader fic. Yay! Please know that I do not own any of the Legend of Zelda characters. This story takes place after the Calamity happened in Breath of Wild. This is also a year after. And in this story Zelda's father is still alive. Also, I added one of my own kingdoms. Added some of my OC's so I guess not everything is canon. Started: 8|20|21 Ended: 1|14|22

Maybe this time he'll be the one to swear his true love to you forevermore. Or, once again, you'll spend another lifetime crying for a love you'll never be able to set free.
