Ask Link, The ultimate advice column!

[Link]

Er, well, no... I don't get drunk very often. You're right.

My favorite time defeating Ganondorf was in the Wind Waker. Because that's the one time he was gone for good. I can't imagine he would somehow un-petrify himself or anything. So, for once, it was all worth it!

As for boss battles, I can't say that they're "fun" or "entertaining", but the most exciting and spectacular ones I ever partook in were against Koume and Kotake (Twinrova) in Ocarina of Time, Majora in Majora's Mask (while in Fierce Deity mode, of course) and Stallord from Arbiter's Grounds in Twilight Princess.

Though not in any particular order. A lot of them were adrenalin-pumping and real challenges. I don't think I can actually decide if I liked any of them, though.

[LZ Angel]

Ooh, I liked the Twinrova battle too - my favourite boss

I'll just say this now: practically all my questions will have to do with OoT (just in case you couldn't already tell ) as its the only game I've played/finished

Did you ever accidentally go into the Death Mountain Crater without your Goron Tunic? And did you ever lose any of your tunics? (damm those stupid grub-like things....one ate me once and then spat me into the dark abyss so I couldn't just kill it and get my Zora tunic back )

[CrazygurlMadness]

Additionally, Link, is there ever a time where you lost ALL your tunics?

There are a few people who want to know.

[Link]

I did go into the Death Mountain crater without a Goron tunic. Once. I didn't stay long enough to die, but let's just say I knew to come prepared every other time afterwards.

I did lose the Zora tunic once to a Like-Like, but I killed it and got it back. I HATE Like-Likes. They're one of the few creatures I go to great lengths to avoid. Not that they scare me, but they're just so...

Well, you know.

And no, I never got to the point of losing all my tunics. I always managed to keep my clothes firmly attached to my body.

Though I lost a lot of rupees to scavengers and all. Damn thieves.

[LZ Angel]

I hate Like-Like's too. I especially hate it when I accidentally use the hookshot on them, and then get sucked into them. Now that sucks

Let's see.....a new question....

Oh yeah! What did you think of those Great Fairies in OoT? Am I the only one who found them a tad....creepy? (they were dead useful and all, but still kinda creepy )

And did you ever forget any of the Ocarina songs temporarily, or are you just so perfect you remembered them all after being taught?

[Cuccopower]

Hey Link,

what do you think 'bout Zelink fanfics/fanart? 8D

[Link]

The Great Fairies were alright, I guess. It's true they overdid their make-up on a daily basis and had little regard for modesty (and a little boy's innocence), but can a grown man honestly look at a half-nude, floating woman and say he'd rather she be clothed?

That was a rhetorical question.

The scariest thing about the Great Fairies was their scream-slash-laughter. Whichever comes first.

I have a pretty good memory, but I'd lie to say I got all the songs, every time, without missing a note. It's easy when it's a sequence that Sheik --for instance-- showed me a few seconds ago, but I often had to pause and remember tunes if it had been a while since I last used them. Forget them entirely, though? No.

As for fanart and fanfiction, I don't know much about them. I don't surf the net much; my access to your technology is limited and not always functional. I know about fanfiction, but I don't have an opinion on it aside from "let the fans do as they please". It doesn't affect me, so I don't care much.

I mean, if someone wrote fanfiction about you, would you read every single one and take everything personally? I'd hope not; you'd go insane, I think.

So I let it slide.

[LZ Angel]

Yeah, their laughter/screams were very scary And that weird crying-type thing they did was kinda creepy too......

About the Sages, before you had to meet/save each one (and before people dropped not-so-subtle hints ) did you guess/know who each of them were? Did you think that you already knew most of them, or did you think they would just be random new people for you to meet as an adult?

I'm just curious....and running out of questions to ask, so the questions I am asking are getting stupid now.......

[Cuccopower]

Link,

what do you think Zelda thinks about YOU?

[Link]

I knew about a few of the sages. I could guess for Saria and Darunia, as they were, in a way, the most "powerful" of their race. I had trouble to fathom Ruto as being one of the sages, considering her childish, slightly spoiled nature. She didn't strike me as sage material at first.

As far as Impa and Nabooru go, however, I didn't know. Impa was, to me, only Zelda's caretaker and until I made the connection between her Shadow Folk and the sage of Shadow, I didn't suspect her true self.

As for Nabooru, I didn't know her until I went out to actively seek the last Sage.

I couldn't guess about Zelda, though. All Rauru told me was that there were six Sages, not seven.

And you shouldn't worry about not having questions on OoT. I'm here to give out advice, not answer questions on my personal life. I don't mind, but really, I'm here for you all.

As for Zelda, I think she likes me. Heh.

[gr33n_sl33ves]

Assuming that you have seen the CD-i Zelda games, as well as the cartoon from the early 90's, what is your honest opinion upon how you were portrayed in the aforementioned things?

[Princess Zelda]

No comment.

Link, do you have a favorite manga? Any? I'm getting bored with all this paperwork...and why are there slugs on my seat? Who put them there?

LINK!

[Link]

Alright, alright. Not EVERYTHING that Nintendo gives license to is automatically good. I'll hand you that. But you'll notice that the CD-i games and the cartoon are noted nowhere in their anthology.

It's obvious everyone is doing their best to forget those things ever happened.

As per the slugs, Zelda, I didn't put them there. Why is it that every time something weird happens, it has to be my fault? Are you sure you didn't make them appear with one of your creepy magic tricks?

And manga? You're the bookish person; I don't have a favourite considering I don't delve into libraries all that much. Have you ever seen me read a book? No, probably not. I prefer to express my strengths in a manly and destructive way, like destroying those annoying Deku Babas in your garden.

Actually, allow me to storm off in a rage which will allow us upon my return to engage in amazing make-up s-- ... yeah.

I'm off to hack at things. Be ready for when I come back.

[LZ Angel]

Link, that last post was...interesting. Nevertheless, we all still love you

Anyway....should we be moving on to actual advice questions, or should we keep pestering Link about everything?

(I think CM is going to be in trouble for all this pestering of Link we have done. However, I am sure she will find a way to turn his wrath to her advantage

Sorry CM - but I think its true )

[CrazygurlMadness]

Oh, I won't get in trouble or anything. It's not like this thread is getting spammed or whatever. As long as we keep it spam free, we're fine. I'm just keeping an eye on things; so long as you don't turn this into inane conversations, Link can't claim we're harassing him for nothing.

It's true Link wasn't dragged here through threats and menaces to answer questions on his private life, but he opened up quite nicely, didn't he, even though it wasn't in the job description?

We love you, Link. You're multi-purpose.
