Summary
Vah Naboris is all that stands between Link and his final showdown with the Calamity, and at long last, he’s found a way into Gerudo Town. It just involves posing as his own great-something-granddaughter, the plucky little heroine intent on finishing what her ancestor, the fallen Hylian Champion, had started.
And lucky for him, King Ganondorf believes it.
Now he just has to survive his last Divine Beast, and he’s set. … Well. He supposes also has to survive the charming, attractive Gerudo king’s (very welcome) attentions without blowing his own cover, but surely he can manage that, too, right?
(So, yeah. He’s fucked.)
As much as he’d like to, he hasn’t forgotten that he can’t let Ganon get too close. But then again, Ganon would have to get much closer than just a kiss to figure him out, right…?

Summary
The return of the Calamity has been foretold. And while the peoples of Hyrule are united in their preparations to oppose it, there are some who believe the current king of the Gerudo would best be kept under watchful eyes, if for no other reason than his name.
Fearing for his people’s wellbeing if he doesn’t comply, and all too familiar with the legends of his ancient predecessors, Ganon willingly places himself in Hylian protective custody until the threat of the Calamity has passed. He’s resigned to a lonely, unpleasant stay at Hyrule Castle, until he meets the Hylian royal guard assigned to protect him.
Sir Link surpasses his every expectation from day one, fiercely loyal and courageous to a fault, uncaring of the suspicions that surround Ganon—not to mention incredibly charming. But as they grow closer, Ganon can’t help but wonder if their fates will tear them apart again before this is all over.
“You should see royal guard training.”
Link gives him a cheeky grin that takes his already pretty face and makes it downright stunning, bruises and all. Ganon finds himself smiling back, even while he wonders what on earth the Hylians put their finest knights through.

Of course Link couldn't be expected to react well to strangers–– not even strangers wearing his face.

Summary
“I’m afraid I won’t be the most thrilling company,” Zelda says curtly. “In fact, I’d like to be disturbed as little as possible if it’s all the same to—”
Link suddenly begins making a series of quick motions with his hands—fingers flitting at his lips, wrists crossed and then swept outwards. His expression is shy and downcast. Zelda stares at the display.
“Oh, did I not mention?” Daruk exclaims. "The little guy doesn’t talk!”
Or: Link and Zelda, except it's the best storyline in Love Actually.
