General Fics
- My Sword Is
by Scop.- Recommended by TrueBlue170
- Status: Complete
- Summary: An accidental innuendo turns out to be what Link needs to break out of a shaken mood left from his first fight with the Imprisoned. Also features Gondo and Scrapper. Oneshot, juvenile humor.
- Synopsis: Set during The Legend of Zelda: Skyward Sword — if you've played the game, this fic will make you not look at dowsing in the same way ever again. Hilarious, and makes you see Link as not just the Goddess's Hero, but a regular teenager, laughing at the typical crude humour that teenagers have.
- The Crimson Loftwing by saphira and shruikan
- Recommended by beeruckzII
- Status: Dormant (last updated June 2017)
- Synopsis: A series of fluffy one-shots centered around Link and his Loftwing.

- What We Did Before... by AndelynKinsey
- Recommended by Clato Lawa
- Status: Complete
- Pairing: Link/Zelda
- Synopsis: Link and Zelda live in Skyloft, a strange little island in the sky. They've known each other since they were five years old and have always looked out for one another. This is the story of what their life was like, and what they did before fate intervened and their world changed forever.
- Note: Now has a sequel, The Skies that Changed, set during the events of Skyward Sword, possibly with more on the way.
- In This Life or Any Other by Zestycrouton
- Recommended by Clato Lawa
- Status: Complete
- Pairing: Link/Zelda
- Synopsis: "What I do know is that I have you now, I love you now, and that no matter what comes next, in this life or any other... even if I don't know you... I will always, always be your Zelda." Part of the Timeline mini-series.
- Ancient Roots by RandomButLoved Also available on FFN.
- Recommended by Glaceon Mage
- Status: Complete
- Pairing: Link/Zelda
- Synopsis: On the conclusion of the Wing Ceremony, the outset of the Goddess's Mission begins. And yet the darkness is not out for the Goddess's Soul, but for the Hero's. Zelda must face the world below in search of her friend, only to discover that the Surface is not a land of dreams. War is brewing on the land that she created, and she must not allow the final candle of hope be snuffed out.
- Note: This is a really good Roleswap AU. While the overall plot follows the game, the story deviates just enough to stay interesting. Of particular note is while Link does spend quite some time being a damsel in distress, he's given quite a lot of agency despite this, actually being shown holding his own and resisting capture.
