I’m honestly not even sure why the anon thinks he’s 17. in the game there is a memory of Zelda where she says ‘tomorrow I’ll be 17′ but there is no talk of Link’s age.
and in the current timeline a 100 years passed so they’re all like 120 now or something? who even the fuck cares anymore?
if it helps, I am not picturing him as particularly underage? I haven’t given a thought to his age in general; adult Link for me has always been in his very early twenties. it’s your head, you can think of him being whatever you like – I don’t know why you’d need me explicitly stating he’s 18+
that’s for me just… common sense…
(especially and please don’t forget, he’s a fictional goddamn character of a fictional goddamn race???????????)
