Summary
"Tell me you don’t want it, Arthur. Just once. Just for one night, why can’t we have what was taken from us? Haven’t we given enough? Wasted enough time?” Mary releases her hold on Arthur’s arm, only to cradle his face in both of her hands. She traces her thumb over his cheek, delighting in the flush that blooms across his skin. Arthur swallows thickly, lips parted, pupils blown in an expression Mary knows from her years as a wife. Arthur has to close his eyes again before he can speak, voice pained.
“Nothin’s changed, Mary. I ain’t changed, nor have you. The problems are still there and they ain’t goin’ away, you know that. What good would it do? What’s the point of it all? Of lettin’ ourselves have that, only to lose it?”
“It’s already lost, Arthur. I just want one night with you; I can’t watch you leave again, not without a piece of you to take with me. Please, Arthur, just one night. Forget the rest of it, all of it."

Summary
“I thought you…” Zelda's voice is quiet, barely above a whisper. “I thought you despised me.”
Link’s eyes widen with shock. Zelda can practically see the way his mind races with thoughts – thoughts so intangible and unknown to her, hidden behind his ever-present silence.
Then Link kneels. He bows his head, as if his eyes are unworthy of gazing upon her.
“I could never despise you, Your Highness.” His voice is full of more emotion than Zelda has ever heard from him – such an intense, honest reverence. “I… I live to serve you.”
-------
No prophecy or destiny is more important to Link than his responsibilities as Princess Zelda's personal knight. He would follow her anywhere - a fact proven by his strangely familiar dreams. At first, Zelda dislikes the knight that her father insists must accompany her everywhere. But over time, they grow incredibly close.As time goes by, Zelda contemplates her role as Princess, while Link tries to figure out the meaning of his dreams - which have started to feel more like memories.
Or: A closer look at Link, Zelda, and their relationship throughout the events of BotW, (eventually TotK too,) and during parts of their lives not shown by the games.

Summary
Link was 17 when he "stole" the Master Sword. Now, he has been labeled a fugitive and left with nothing. Seeking some more information on his supposed partner against the Calamity (and maybe a little revenge against the king that declared him a fugitive), Link launches a series of heists on Hyrule Castle. These quickly spiral as his curiosity about Princess Zelda becomes something more, dragging both of them into an unpredictable series of adventures.
There will be angst, there will be Rhoam Shade, there will be koroks helping with heists, and by Hylia there will be Zelink.

Summary
She is actually doing quite well for a time displaced young woman who has just finished a century-long battle with demon, and whose admittedly-few friends are all long dead, and who hasn't used her vocal chords or seen the sun in a hundred years.
(Intimidating word count, but it’s 4 manageable arcs.)
