Hey so you know how in the Izuru-Fuyuhiko conversation, Izuru assumes Fuyuhiko intends to use Izuru for his talents? And Fuyuhiko refutes that like right away. Based on the recent art you made, do you have any thoughts on Izuru making himself useful (as a meat shield apparently) anyway? Izuru usefulness complex vs. Fuyuhiko 'people arent tools' complex or something like that? Sorry if this is a strange ask to get out of the blue haha I am interested in the narrative.
Ok so this is a FANTASTIC question and it took all my restraint not to send back an entire essay lmao💛💛💛
(correction^ I wrote 544 words of this so, maybe a LITTLE bit of an essay)
So, here are my thoughts on Izuru and Fuyuhiko's potential relationship in DRS:US:
I feel like the reason that Izuru may in fact stay with Fuyuhiko in this scenario (I mean, he outright says that if he were told to be free without orders he would probably just disappear overseas and cut contact,) is Fuyuhuko’s resolve not to use Izuru for his talents. I think that, in one way or another, this wont sit right with Izuru, who can easily reason out the fact that he’s a passive force until acted upon, and if acted upon (or used) for the good of humanity, that would have an overall better net benefit to the world than valuing his independence and letting his talents go to waste. As little as Izuru seems to care about anything, the thought process behind letting him do whatever he wants and not like, idk, make him cure cancer, is an absolutely atrocious error in judgement and has to be the fault of some under-developed moral code of Fuyuhuko’s. I think this intrigue is part of why Izuru would want to stay with Fuyuhuko: to see how long it will take for Fuyu, given ample opportunity, to abandon his personal code and start using Izuru (weather for humanity’s benefit or his own).
Note: I also think this is why Izuru would “make himself useful” (like the meat shield incident). By showing how much he could benefit Fuyuhiko when his talents are used, he’s subtly testing his resolve to keep refraining from doing so.
On the FLIP side we have Fuyuhiko, who’s honestly got a point. He’s definitely not thinking of it in the same big moral strokes that Izuru is, but he is thinking of the basic gist of it: What should you value more, a person’s freedom or the good they can do? In his (learned) opinion, the value a person’s life has and the potential they have for good aren’t exclusive, but that person needs to do the good on their own for it to have meaning. His relationship with Peko comes to mind hard here as someone who has been given a role and carried it out perfectly, denying their own free will in the process. Fuyu doesn’t go through the same lesson in the same way as DR2, but it’s clear that he’s coming to similar conclusions about valuing Peko’s free will in their DRUS interactions. I feel like, similarly, Fuyu would just want Izuru to start giving a damn about being used by people and stop treating himself like a means to an end.
So, does this turn into a genuine friendship? Something more?... Maybe??? I see a lot of interpretations of Izuru’s character were he’s an unfeeling machine, which I personally really dislike. I mean, the man has enough emotion to be bored by being unable to be surprised by anything anymore. He does Cry, even if he doesn’t know why. In my eyes, Izuru is mentally incredibly developed, but emotionally underdeveloped because of his emphasis on learning and usefulness since his ‘creation’. So, these two’s relationship is both ambiguous and up for interpretation, but I do think it has room for Izuru to come to understand Fuyuhuko’s thinking and maybe even start caring for him eventually. Honestly it’s all up to your personal interpretation of Izuru’s character!
But yea, those are just my thoughts! Let me know Your own interpretation!! I love these characters and always wanna hear other people's thoughts on them!!! 💛

“While it’s true that I am Hylia reborn, I’m still my father’s daughter and your friend… I’m still your Zelda.”
Indie Zelda from Legend of Zelda: Skyward Sword roleplaying blog
OC friendly! Crossover friendly! Duplicate friendly! Highly selective due to low activity but not mutuals only!
Amber, so old I owe Jesus a dollar (28), low activity but mainly active on Tuesdays and Wednesdays so long as capitalism and my health say it's ok.
To keep a long story short:
Skyward Sword is meant to be the prequel of all prequels for a franchise that’s been around since the 80s. Since then fans tried to piece together their own timeline until this game came out, which explains the origins of the master sword, how the royal family has unique light magic, the first hero, and the curse that binds three people together for eternity.
Don’t be fooled! This Zelda is no princess, but instead, a knight in training turned into a mortal goddess. She was just your normal, everyday girl next door. Until she awakens her true self where she finds out her divine origins as being a goddess named Hylia. It’s something she takes well even if it leaves her head spinning, she’s one who rolls with the punches so she’s a tough cookie! I always headcanon her to not become a princess post-game either but more of a guardian to the Triforce.
While I try to stick to canon, I do diverge a little when it comes to my own headcanons to flesh her out as best as I can.
An important thing to note is that I don’t think every Zelda is a reincarnation of Hylia. This post explains it in depth, and this is highly important for both Sky and my ALTTP Zelda as well since it applies to them both.
Pretty much a spunky girl who’s outspoken and can be stubborn but means well at the end of the day. Also Cute!
Me touching pool water: @hyruin is main sky Link and while I’m open to interacting with other sky Links, know that my Zel will only treat every sky Link as a friend since I play her as looking at him in platonic love.
