My multichapter works:

Dead Inside: On hiatus. I intend to complete Devious and Clandestine before I return to this.

Devious: In progress. Prequel to Villainous. Takes place around two years after Twilight Princess, and will feature Link and Zelda as they fall in love. Prognosis ~30-31 chapters.

Villainous: Complete. A short fluffy Zelink story that takes place roughly around 4 years after the events of Twilight Princess.

Infamous: Pending. Sequel to 'Villainous'. It will take place 5-7 years after 'Villainous'. I have a basic story idea for it and so far I predict it to be around 30 chapters.

Clandestine: In progress. To be worked on after I finish 'Devious'. Takes place years after the events of Ocarina of Time and Majora's Mask, and again it will be a Zelink. It will be somewhat Shakespearean inspired and will include fictional plays and poetry. It promises to be maddening, with both protagonists feuding throughout practically the entire story. Only read if you can handle the frustration. Prognosis: 30-40 chapters.

Read and enjoy!

"'Do not act as if you know who I am,' I commanded. Link looked into my eyes for the first time in over a year. 'But I do.'" Zelda schemes to finally understand why this one soldier refuses to acknowledge her, not realizing she might be better off not knowing. Set several years after Link was sent back as a child in OoT.

Courage by darksidecoug reviews
"And Link," Sheik called. "Right now you may be pathetic. But give me time; I'll convince everyone of who you really are. Even you." It's funny how an ocarina, a sword, and a little courage can change the world given the proper circumstances. Inspired by OoT.

The silver dagger and its sheath by I'mNoOneSpecial reviews
This story is a rewritten folktale; rewritten using LOZ characters. It is the story of a poor farmer's daughter (Zelda), who must use her wits to convince her young prince-turned-king (Link) that her old father (Daphnes Nohansen) is innocent of the theft of a jeweled silver dagger.

The Shard of Twilight by AreiaCannaid reviews
Zelda had often wished for the chance to prove she was more than just the damsel in distress, more than a failure who could not even protect her own kingdom. By a cruel twist of fate the opportunity thrusts itself upon her, but it is nothing like how she imagined. Now the fate of two kingdoms and the lives of her friends are in her hands.

The Empress by AreiaCannaid reviews
Just because the warlord was defeated doesn't mean the adventure is over… Another enemy has her sights set on Hyrule, and will stop at nothing until it's her own. Zelda is forced to make a horrible choice that leaves the one person who might be able to help her in no position to be saving anyone. Zelda is in danger, the kingdom is in danger, and her hero is on the run.

Anamnesis by Katie Ann reviews
The memories began to circle in her head, but whose memories they were and whether they were real she could not ascertain. She decided that like all good stories, she would start at the beginning. Post TP. LxZ.

Sweet Mistake by Ezakiel reviews
OOT-Oneshot When Link thinks that he will never see Zelda again anyway, he get's daring. Rated T for mild language and my own paranoia. Possible LinkXZelda, but that's for you to decide. R&R

Devious reviews
It was not enough being the hero. He was the queen's champion, a knight of the highest order; nothing was out of his reach but for his greatest desire. No, in order to win the heart of the queen he had to be devious. Post Twilight Princess, Zelink. Villainous prequel.

Dead Inside reviews
Seven lifetimes it's been since we've started remembering. Each time we'd vanquished the evil, and each time afterwards we had each other. We'd marry, we'd have children, we'd age, we'd be together. And then the cycle would start anew. But never did I consider what would happen if one of us were to die early. And what if they weren't reborn? Zelink AU. Rated M for violence.

She almost pitied him then, before she recalled he was the reason she was out here past decent hours, fetching him like a wayward husband she had to drag home. Post Twilight Princess. Zelink oneshot.

Gentle reviews
Without a doubt Link was most ardently a gentleman. It was time, she mused, Hyrule deserved a gentle king. OoT oneshot.

Clandestine reviews
She had waited for him, and in the end he came too late. Forced to marry another to carry on the royal bloodline, Link no longer had a place in her life. That is, before she was met with his unrelenting persistence! Post OoT, Zelink.
