Well excuuuuuse me, princess!
oh, that’s why he’s mute forever. they tried once, and they’re never going back.
Serious time: it was never a very good theory. There are clearly dialog options where they zoom over Link expressing complex ideas to someone he just met. Unless you want to assume into existence a sign language that everyone in Hyrule knows, Link can talk just like anyone else.
The meta reason is that the player is supposed to supply Link’s dialog, since he’s just the player avatar. Your “link” to the game world.
I always thought it was a small joke that saved a lot of space and time. Why have/show link explain things fully to an npc when the player already knows what’s going to be explained? Just do the … thing and pretend link gave a five sentence summary and now we can move on faster.
Zelda movie is gonna be – something? Dear god the possibilities
Link is goals for literally every conceivable permutation of genders and sexualities.
whats it have to do with gender or sexuality i just want a closet that deep. so many clothes.
About that closet …
i could also fill it with spices
stuck in the pantry
best t4t relationship representation ever
Femboys=/=twinks tho. Also, most older iterations of him are more otter than anything. Also also, dont call children twinks, otters, or femboys. It’s weird.
Not all versions of link have him aged as a kid, so we can use our own adult brains and assume this one isn’t either. Plus, I got called a twink all the time in highschool bro, chill out it’s just a meme lol

I think it’s okay for the joke, not that I speak for everyone, but I think we have bigger things to be mad at.
Why’s it weird to call Link a twink? He is though.

You know, I never thought about how old Link and Zelda are in the games. Never really had a need, of course, but in some games it’s made obvious (literally switching between child link and adult link), I’m not sure if it’s explicitly stated for wind waker but just look at him… But then, in BotW there’s implications of past romance, and this being the last Zelda game I played might have primed me to not think of Link as a kid.
There’s literally a distinct “kid” version of Link to differentiate him from the “regular” adult Link in smash bros
Wind Waker begins with grandma giving you your tunic for your twelfth birthday. :3
BotW has Zelda turn 17, so link is probably around that age as well
Link slept for a hundred years though in BotW.
After the birthday. And so did she.
Would be creepy if he was 40 and just doing all this to groom her when she turns 18.
That’s the Tingle timeline.
I don’t think Link has ever been depicted as having any body hair, so he can’t really be an otter. Also twink has evolved beyond its usage in gay culture. These days it’s more of a general term that implies vague queerness more than explicit cis male homosexuality. We don’t really know if Link is a femboy, trans femme, trans masc, or what, but he’s definitely a twink under the modern sexuality agnostic usage.

No, that’s not what twink means.
Why don’t you list the definition you’re operating under so we can skip the talking past each other argument. I was saying twink in it’s modern usage is more of a vibe than strict “gay cis male early twenties with low body hair and body fat”. I wasn’t saying that sentence is the entire definition of twink, so you’re right that’s not what twink means.
