Oh no, Sidon's Hot!

I Want to Believe is a Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild fan comic by pittssmitts. It takes place three years after the events of the game during a diplomatic visit by a now Queen Zelda to Zora’s Domain. Link, still appointed knight to Zelda, accompanies her and reunites with Sidon, who has been harboring feelings for Link for years. During their reunion, Link comes to terms not only with his reluctance toward the destiny thrust upon him, but he also realizes that he is finally able to accept his own feelings for Sidon as he is now truly free to peruse his own happiness.

I think Matteo and I really hit it off during this interview. After discovering our mutual love for Eragon, we talk about the inspiration behind his comics and writing, everyone’s favorite Zora boyfriend, how Tumblr is our emotional support hell site, and a lot more.
