User blog:TheIkranRider/Who Would Link Rather Be With?

This has been nagging me for such a long time now; ever since I got into Ocarina of Time. Who do you think Link should rather fall for? Princess Zelda or Zelda II? Again, I named my OC that cause of a) from lousy RPs I used to do when I was a kid and b) to tell her and Zelda apart. But, this...this is just a challenge I can never resolve on my own. Here's the scoop.

Zelda pretty much functions the same ways in the original game: y'know, first meet Link at the courtyard and describe her dream, as well as to protect the Triforce from Ganon. She does also run away with Impa, disguise herself as Sheik, and soon unveils to Link and Zelda II her true identity and gets captured. She doesn't bring Link and Zelda II to the past, though, as you'd see in my fic summarization, The Lost Legend of Namira.

But, with Zelda II, she does a lot more. She first met Link as a kid living in Kokiri Forest soon after he receives his guardian fairy, Navi. She assists both of them on their misadventures to save Hyrule from Ganon, and also teams up with her various Pokémon scattered throughout the land. Basically, she's like a second partner to him, like Navi is, though she still functions as a gifted Trainer. She also conquered two dungeons on her own when Link was out of commission, those being in Kakariko Village. Hell, when Link and Zelda II matured together, she had developed deeper affections for him, a crush since she was a very loyal friend of his and around his age. Young love does become deep affection, after all, according to what Sheik said. So...since they only see Zelda for a few minutes, and because Zelda II stayed with Link through and through, even during his dire moments and in her lucid dream combatting Namira, shouldn't SHE actually be accepted by Link instead?

Granted, he and the princess are both Hylians, and Zelda II's not classified since she's an outsider, as she's from the Pokémon World. Although many fans would rather have Link and Zelda as a couple. That's fine and dandy, but since they've only met for a few moments at a time, shouldn't Zelda II be the one? She'd be rejected if the former should happen. How can I possibly make Link fall for either one, and not reject the other like some love triangle? That's the LAST thing I want to happen!!

So, I'm asking you, how would this internal conflict be resolved, and again, who would Link rather fall for?
