Welp, uh, technically it's still Age of Calamity's birthday where I'm at so here's a little fic of AoC Arranged Marriage AU!

---

(Basically the premise of this AU was that when Link was revealed to be the chosen hero Rhoam had basically married him and Zelda together; they would be in their early 20's in this AU of course)

---

Zelda rubbed her aching forehead, trying to still the racing thoughts in her mind as she glossed over the different designs of wedding gowns. Quite a few of them were too flamboyant for a wedding; decorated with so many jewels and layers that she could see herself dying in one of them. The others didn't even look like wedding dresses; too blue or red or gold with only fragments of white to even signify they were for marriage.

She set the different designs down, sighing defeatedly. Not one of the dozens of designs spoke out to her. It was like they were not even for her.

Well, of course not, she thought with a scoff. This isn't my own wedding. It is for the kingdom's sake.

It had been such a struggle to get the Master Sword from Korok Forest. So much resources and time were spent trying to free the forest from the monster's clutches. If Link hadn't already been with them, and if he wasn't already the chosen hero... the people of Hyrule would've thought of it a waste of Hyrule's militia. Already so many lives had been lost from the previous battles...

A knock on her study door drew her from her thoughts. She quickly gathered the drawings, a curse slipping from her mouth as some fell to the floor, before beckoning the knocker to come in.

To her surprise, it was her fiancé coming to visit. She found herself staring at him as he came in, fully donned in the dark blue and red of the royal guard's uniform; a temporary garb until she could finish the champions' apparel, but one that was long overdue. Even without the hilt of the Master Sword peering over his shoulder, Link had long deserved the royal guard's uniform (at least in Zelda's opinion).

Link looked at her curiously, before looking down at one of the dropped drawings at his feet. He bent down to pick it up, but before Zelda could protest he was already snickering at the design.

"They are aware it's supposed to be a wedding dress, right?"

A smile crept up on Zelda's lips, and before she was aware she was already chuckling. "Oh, and that's not even the worse of them," she giggled, motioning him over to the larger stack. Together, they nitpicked at every little design detail, laughing at the questionable design choices.

"Oh, but this one isn't too bad," Link said, picking up a drawing of a flamboyant wedding dress that was an odd mutated mix between a ballgown and a military uniform.

"It isn't," Zelda admitted, "but it just doesn't... fit me, if that makes sense."

Link squinted at the drawing, then looked at Zelda and back at it again. "Yeah, you're right," he relented, placing the drawing back in the pile.

"There's quite a few of them like that," Zelda said, flipping through another pile before bringing out a dress. "Like, I love the skirt on this one" -- she brought out another drawing -- "and I love the sleeves, but not really the neckline." She sighed, leaning into her chair. "It would make this ordeal a lot easier if I could just design my own."

"Why can't you?" Link raised an eyebrow. "You're already designing our champions' outfits. Why not make your own?"

"You really think I should?" Zelda asked. "But... Father wouldn't allow it."

"And why should he stop you? It is your wedding."

Zelda gave him a look to challenge that statement.

"Okay, maybe not really. But I've seen the designs you made for our garbs; they're amazing, Zelda."

Zelda felt her cheeks grow hot, though her heart felt soured by the notion. She only had to make the champions' garbs out of tradition, not because she really wanted to.

But... it wouldn't hurt to try.

Zelda reached over and grabbed her notebook, quickly flipping through all of the horrible sketches of flora she tried to doodle, before finding a blank page. She was about to grab a utensil, but her hand knocked the cup over. Goodness; she was a mess today.

Link caught most of the utensils before they escaped her desk, and the ones he did he picked back up and placed them in the cup.

"Thank you," Zelda said, before grabbing the one she wanted and turning to her page.

She had begun sketching out the base lines for the dress before she realized she had an audience watching over her shoulder.

"Hey," she said, looking up at him with a mischievous smile. "If we're going to treat this like an ordinary marriage, shouldn't this be a surprise to you?"

Link chuckled. "And what part of this marriage is ordinary?" he teased.

"Oh, you--!"

Zelda sat up from her chair and began playfully pushing Link out of the door. "It's bad luck to see the wedding dress before the wedding!"

"Isn't it 'to see the bride before the wedding'?" he joked along.

"Same thing!"

The two laughed as she finally pushed him out of the door. "I shall see you at dinner, then!" he said, twirling his hand around and stooped into a bow. Zelda agreed, still giggling, before closing the door. She sighed contentedly; it always felt good to laugh.

She returned to her notebook, continuing sketching out the rough lines. Using elements from the other sketches as references, she designed a dress she became proud of. It was flowy, and nature-like; the skirt of the dress reminded her of the petals of a silent princess, the sleeves were long and elegant, and the neckline was lower and allowed more comfort to breathe. She couldn't help but also design her hair into a long braid, making a note of it by the side to also put specks of flowers (preferably silent princess replicas) into her hair as well.

When she was finished, she took a moment to admire the dress. She could see herself walking down the aisle now, holding a bouquet of flowers, looking up to meet the man that she would be married to...

Zelda frowned; no doubt that Link wouldn't want to be married to her like this. She would always imagined that she would have time before marriage, to know the person long enough to love. Though she and Link had gotten along quite nicely, from the time that he had been appointed her personal guard they had only known each other not even long enough to be friends. All of this, no doubt, was forced on Link as much if not more than was forced on Zelda. As the princess, she at least had no choice on the matter of her duties. Link had a choice... until he got married to her at least.

It felt unfair to Link. Already his life was thrown away the moment he picked up that sword. He should be married to someone he loves, not a princess he was only sworn to by duty.

Like Mipha, Zelda thought, remembering how the two looked at each other when they had visited the Domain. Oh, goodness, Zelda realized in shock, holding a hand to her mouth. Had her father really stopped a relationship between Link and Mipha with this marriage?

She shook her head. No, her mind reasoned. If he was really distraught over losing Mipha, then he would probably not even talk to her, let alone laugh with her.

But... that didn't mean that she could approach Link on the subject one of these days.

Zelda picked up the drawing, taking a deep breath. All that was left now was for her father to approve her design.

Could you doodle your version of the Sheikah court poet? Or if that's too much work, maybe Impa being annoyed by something Link being a hopeless sap for Zelda.

those aoc sidequests where you gather things for zelda.... (impa is holding off all the monsters)

Also!! I like to headcanon that the Sheikah poet was not only Kass's teacher, but he was also Impa's husband in BotW (and Paya's grandfather). Here he is :) Thanks for the requests!!
