Day 8 - Boat/Ship/Vessel By ZeldaNoVorsu -- Report

Today's Linktober prompt was Boat/Ship/Vessel. I wasn't sure what to do for this at first. Of course, the obvious options would be something set during Wind Waker or Phantom Hourglass, or perhaps a little more obscurely, the Lanayru Sand Sea section from Skyward Sword. At one point, I had entertained a Zelink idea involving the fishing boat in Twilight Princess. I didn't want Zelda from the original Legend of Zelda to be left out, however, and so I came up with this short, cute idea of her and Link riding the raft from that came, only for them to accidentally get tossed into the water, and him into her tummy. I was sort of thinking to end the story after she surfaced and saw just the top of her belly poking out of the water. Then, yesterday,  CrystalKiller88 was trying to influence what  SmaxTheDestroyer will do for today's prompt, starting by jokingly saying "Zelda, but what if boat?" That got me thinking, and I decided to expand the story to include Zelda using her big belly as a "boat" of sorts to paddle back to shore where she pushes Link out.

I, uh, may have also had a slightly less wholesome idea where she accidentally digests Link, leading to an alternate "bad ending" where she pushes him out, but not in the same form that he went into her as. You can find that here.

Well that's definitely not what I would have expected from that prompt. Though that alt is a little closer to what I expected

How is the alt closer when it is the same setting, just a different outcome?

I mean, I definitely expected Tetra's return, and her return usually means a bunch of fudge teasing for WW Link.

Ah, she will show up eventually, just likely not when you expect her.
