never tell your friends you have a date because they’re gonna want to help
[ID] A digital 3-panel drawing of Taako, a heavyset light-skinned elf wearing a white shirt with opal brooch, three rings, and a blazer tossed over his shoulders, seated at a desk leafing through a magazine. Magnus, a heavyset light-skinned human man with a beard, sits on a green couch behind him.
[Panel 1] Taako’s magazine is open to an advertisement reading “SMELLF: Cologne for elves. Magnus says “You know what all guys love? Butterfly kisses.” Taako says “Yeah, thanks, Magnus, but i think i got a pretty good handle on what the menfolk these days are into.” [end Panel 1]
[Panel 2] Taako has torn out the cologne advertisement and is smelling it. Magnus says “Right. it’s butterfly kisses.” Taako says, “mhmm.” Magnus says “and being the little spoon.” [end Panel 2]
[Panel 3] Merle, a dark-skinned dwarf with a white beard and glasses, pokes his head into the frame. He says, “don’t listen to ‘im, Taako. every man’s dream date: old country buffet, asleep by 9.” Taako looks over his shoulder, still holding the advertisement, and says “this is more than i ever wanted to know about you two.” [end panel 3] [end ID]
Once upon a time there was a famous Greek captain. This captain was very successful at what he did, for years he escorted merchant ships all over the world. Never did stormy seas or enemy vessels get the best of him. He was admired by his crew and fellow captains.
However, there was one thing different about this captain. Every morning he went through a strange ritual. He would lock himself in his captain’s quarters and open a small safe. In the safe was an envelope with a piece of paper inside. He would stare at the paper for a minute, and then lock it back up. After, he would go about his daily duties.
For years this went on, and his crew became very curious. Was it a treasure map? Was it a letter from a long lost love? Everyone speculated about the contents of the strange envelope.
One day the captain died at sea. After laying the captain’s body to rest, the first mate led the entire crew into the captains’ quarters. He opened the safe, got the envelope, opened it and turned pale.
Six words were on the paper, three on three lines.

Some rough concepts I did to explore the designs of the Troopa Koopas, and Kamek!
Unlike Kaiji-Koopas (Bowser’s species), Troopa Koopas are much smaller, they don’t have spikes on their shells, and are plantigrade. They’re known to have long life-spans, averaging around 300 years, but they’re known to surpass this. Kamek himself is currently 231 and is still kickin’. It’s suspected he’ll live far longer than what’s normal for a typical Troopa, due to his powerful magic.
There are two species of Troopa Koopas: Shell-less (Beach Troopa) and shelled (Common Troopa). Beach Troopas, as their names imply, typically live closer to the beach or any bodies of water and are excellent swimmers, whereas the shelled ones live farther inland and are more at home in grassy plain areas close to shallow water sources: they aren’t very good swimmers naturally.
The Troopa on the bottom is an example of the most common colors seen in their species.
Kamek, however, is a Beach Troopa, hence his lack of shell. The “Young Kamek” concept there is about around the age he was when his village was raided and pillaged by Bowser’s parents, before he was taken as a slave to serve them. He was taken primarily because he showed courage in the face of their raid: while many in his village fled, he stood his ground and tried to protect his home with his powerful magic. He actually managed to put up a good fight, but in the end he was just one Troopa against several Kaiju-Koopas, and they overcame him.
As a servant to Ursa and Brutus Koopa, he often wore a dulled old cape and shackles he couldn’t take off. These shackles served to prevent him from using his magic to his full potential.
His original duties was to upkeep their home while they were out pillaging and protect it to the best of his ability from intruders. When present, they forced him to teach them magic, something of which they knew very little of at the time: he always gave them knowledge of small spells though, unbeknownst to them.
His duties changed, however, when they had Bowser. They were largely absent and apathetic parents, leaving their child in the care of their slave. Kamek honestly wanted to hate the child, given he was the offspring of his captors, but… he couldn’t bring himself to. He knew it wasn’t fair, placing blame on an innocent child, so he took care of the boy. First it was the bare minimum: feed, change diaper, put to sleep, burp; he tried not to get attached, but attached he indeed got. Soon he treated the child as if it were his own son, playing with him, teaching him how to read, tucking him in or staying if he had nightmares, and just being the parent his biological ones weren’t. This trend continued when Bowsette was born, and especially after news of Ursa and Brutus’ disappearance spread.
Bowser does remember his parents, but his memories aren’t really fond. He remembers them giving toys and trinkets, which was cool he thought, until he realized they only did it to keep him occupied and out of their hair. Kamek was there when they weren’t, and he regards him as his father. Bowsette doesn’t remember their parents at all and has only known Kamek as her father. Unlike Bowser who calls him “Kamek” most of the time, Bowsette referred to him as “papa” in her youth. She still does to this day.
So yeah! Some headcanon to go with the doodles. I’m actually really happy with Kamek’s design in specific. <:

YEEEEHAWWWWWWW
hiya! just a q: in a comic of your au where link is about to kill ganondorf and past links are exclaiming ‘needs to die!,’ who exactly are the links that appear? i recognize twi as first and wind as last (correct me if i’m wrong), then oot in the last panel. Who exactly are the links in order? tysm and I absolutely adore your au! stay fresh!!!
breath of the wild, twilight princess, link to the past, legend of zelda, wind waker, and then oot (adult), oot (kid), hero’s shade! LTTP and LOZ dont really…. have any defining characteristics lmaooooo
the OG loz had character if you consider the zelda 2 version since hes the most magically inclined link and had arguably a more forward thinking link since after he beat ganon he tried to take measures to keep him from being resurrected.
I am Silver Tongue, I am an artist. I have many characters and you can check out my art in the art tag. I occasionally practice witchcraft though I don't do anything too complicated. I am girl 2 and don't know what else to put here.
