A/N: Since my whole state issued a mandatory "stay at home" order to combat COVID-19, this past weekend I started taking one-word prompts as a writing exercise to fill my time and help entertain others stuck at home in quarantine~! This work is an anthology collection of those prompts, each piece a short drabble based varyingly in the Twilight Princess, Skyward Sword, Breath of the Wild, and unspecified Zelda-world universes. This may be added to over the course of my "stay at home" order, but I'll try to mark it as complete once I'm completely done taking prompts and have fully updated this work. Hope you're all staying safe and well. Best wishes to everyone-and don't forget to wash your hands!

She felt faint. Her breath was shallow, forehead warm and sweating, head thrown back limp against the rocks. But it was not the humid heat of the Goron hot springs which brought her to this state; or, perhaps more accurately stated, not the hot springs alone.
Link had boasted, as they lounged against the smooth limestone walls of the infamous pools, about his impressive lung capacity—a skill he had developed during his childhood in the Domain. He could nearly match any Zora underwater the time they could spend above water; or so he claimed. It was an outlandish feat Zelda could scarcely believe and openly scoffed at, Goddess' chosen hero be damned.
Perhaps it had been the dizzying warmth of the spring which had spurred her to be so bold. She challenged him to prove it—a sly glimmer in her eye and a smirk on her lips; and prove it he was. His head had been beneath the water now for over a minute, nestled between her thighs as his hands pulled her legs apart at the knees, and she was quickly beginning to forget what it was she had been skeptical of in the first place.
