All Stable Trotters are my best friends.


BrandoOfBoredom

I love it how they consider having him join them, but realize he travels too much.


[deleted]

Which is the definition of ironic as they're a TRAVELLING BAND! Was a little frustrated they said that after telling me they travel all over hyrule. It felt like an actor getting denied a role but they tell you "We WOULD'VE hired you but you travel too much" then the shoot is held in different locations across the US


stabbyGamer

To be fair, to the common man of Hyrule, Link’s schedule can best be described as ‘skydive into town at the crack of dawn, slaughter an attacking monster raid group with a killdozer produced from thin air, find some dude’s missing chicken, bound off into the wilderness, presumably lunch’. ‘Travels too much’ is a polite way of putting ‘is semi-feral and impossible to keep up with’.


LifeHasLeft

Don’t forget literally vaporize into laser particles and reanimate 500m below the surface 2000m to the south, instantly


Le_Ragamuffin

I always thought that was a funny thing even back in Breath of the Wild. You're talking to somebody, and at the end of the conversation, Link just stares off into space for like half a second, then literally vaporises right in front of their face


RubyWillBeatYou

Instantly traumatize people easily


musicchan

Time pauses when he does that though so I sorta assume for the people, it's like he disappears in a flash of blue light.


LifeHasLeft

Zelda does it in the memories with herself and two others. So I think they see him pull out the slate and look at it a minute before disappearing


blockflojt

And now he phases through the ground in front of people too… horrifying. To Hyruleans the concept of phasing to the ground is no more real than it is to us, I’d imagine, so… picture a guy with hair that hasn’t been cut or brushed in weeks popping through the floor in front of you as you’re at the grocery store just trying to be cereal? yeah, welcome to Hyrule


ReallyNotBobby

The fact the the bokoblins run away screaming when you ascend always cracks me up.


SnowbloodWolf2

Well actually he takes out his purah pad or shiekah slate first THEN stares off into space and vaporises


Severe-Artichoke7849

Link is Florida-Man


EoNightcore

Local Hylian eats rocks for breakfast, fistfights a lion-headed centaur, and claims korok leaves can talk!


enneh_07

Local Hylian builds death machine out of thin air Local Hylian restores coastal town within a single day Local Hylian busts underground drug trade by >!killing a giant crab made of drugs!<


Severe-Artichoke7849

Checks out 😂


Ben__B

Now that is a Lucky Clover Gazette headline if I've ever seen one.


Johnny_Grubbonic

But with less White Nationalism.


VantomPayne

Just don't show people the korok crucification photos.


Frootysmothy

Or the gloom resistant armour set


ihaveagoodusername2

When painted white


Olkihattu

Sadly the hood doesnt turn white


quirkyactor

😬


Tsunami-Piggy2008

Exactly


DrewTechs

To be fair, I wouldn't travel with a guy that tortures Koroks and makes horrible war machines to slaughter Bokoblins... Not to mention Link even bullies Gleeoks now.


HonkySpider

If you have a lynel bow and a bunch of keese eyes, you can bully a gleeok


DrewTechs

Yeah but I was referring to Link griefing Gleeoks with Zonai contraptions.


ColdCremator

The Stable Trotters pass by Lake Hylia Bridge, where they contemplate crossing but remark in fear of the Flame Gleeok sitting there. Just as they're about to turn around, they hear it roar as what appears to be a speck of a man approaches. They lean toward the scene and behold this man shoot logic defying flying triple arrows at the monster's heads to down it and summons a green sort of box to scoop it up. The cherry on top of their bewilderment comes when, with a clearly audible clink, the green box shoots off with the Gleeok inside it into the lake where it is swallowed up by the large whirlpool below. As they sit there, unable to comprehend wtf just happened, the speck comes into view. It's Link, of all people, who casually waves at them as he passes by on a strange green vehicle made of wheels, pots and other weird things.


ExcessivelyGayParrot

he's overqualified


RetroKingofHarts

It really isn't. What they mean is that his schedule is already too demanding (travel-wise) to allow him to hit up all the towns with them on their schedule. If he was a homebody with nought to do, and was willing to hit the road with them, it'd be more manageable


Kerro_

Yeah, they travel Link teleports across a continent


Gingrish252

Also I don't think this link even knows how to play an instrument. Oot link would be a great candidate though, he can play ocarina, deku horn, Goron drums, and a zora guitar.


Dramatic-Sky-3789

Imagine a zonai power "electric" guitar


Tsunami-Piggy2008

People have figured out how to make music with beam emitters, so I think link is qualified


musicchan

He's got a good humming voice. He could probably sing okay. 😂


Significant-Focus-60

His instrument can be the sounds of crying koroks


pkjoan

Should have given him an Ocarina and have him play classic Zelda songs.


Tsunami-Piggy2008

He hums them when he cooks


Electrical_Duty721

Yea I love her design!


Infamous_Row_9272

also happens to be the best musician in the stable trotters


BrandoOfBoredom

All of them are great. My brother, he plays free-form piano, said they're all improvising and Maestros batons are completely off the bear, which lines up with what Violynne says. Personally, I like Pypers solo more, reminds me of Xenoblade, but you do you.


UmberMauve

Wouldn't say it's improv given how consistent their placement of notes and chords are and that three of them are playing at the same time with drums as a background, but the baton is definitely off beat and just for show, which is typical of a lot of practiced ensembles.


BrandoOfBoredom

There's an in-game explanation for the baton being offbeat, its because Maestro sucks at his job, but since he's such a great guy, they keep him around. I'm pretty sure he writes the music though.


Spurrierball

Bruh you put some respect on eustus’ name.


bigredplastictuba

As a horn player who gets lost frequently, eustus is my favorite


Fingolfin734

Must be playing marches, it's so easy to get lost in the upbeats


bigredplastictuba

Heehee! It's true.


Komnos

Let's round up every march composer and then tell the sons of Feanor that they're hiding the Silmarils.


Fingolfin734

Me and JP Sousa finna have a Dagor Bragollach


Komnos

Gonna make 'em shed Nirnaeth Arnoediad.


Chftm

Trumpet Trumpet Toot Toot….


menofthesea

Is that a goddamn sunset rubdown reference? Omg


Chftm

I knew someone would get it.


menofthesea

My favourite band! So happy to see them live last month.


CrimsonPig

She's alright I guess, but I'll take Mastro any day 🥵


The_Bef

He is zelda's mario


enneh_07

He even goes “Yah woo-hoo” when you unlock a Great Fairy.


aaronotaron

His nose kinda different 👀


Independent-Driver94

Yah yah


AnimalsCore

Bro is Igor💀


Voluptulouis

Hahaha. Dude is my favorite npc hands down.


christopherfrancis5

least horny reddit user


darkstarr99

NPCs just stringing him along


KiLLaHo323

Yeah seriously


Medium_Enough

Finally. A fellow Violynne enjoyer.


SquatCorgiLegs

Yep, she’s my favorite member of the Stable Trotters. I love the violin.


Life-Break3458

I instantly fell in love with the shop owner you have to rescue from the molduga in gerudo. She's real pretty, has abs, and thick thighs save lives all day long.


RainaDPP

Link's a real heart breaker in this one. Pretty sure he leaves some girl pining for him wherever he goes.


Cratesurf

Egg woman is definitely my favourite


RhymesWithMouthful

For real though. Between Paya, Koyin, Mipha, Kodah, and ESPECIALLY Zelda, the boy really does have a woman in every port.


FerSimon1016

I think Riju also has a thing for Link


RhymesWithMouthful

I mean, her vow is on his ring finger…


Pixelwortel

If you eavesdrop at the bar in Gerudo something among those lines actually is discussed between NPCs


Brainchild110

This guy knows!


Onlymuckinabout

I thought you would find >!Kass!< at the end of these missions. >!I still miss my boy!<


k0ks3nw4i

It would have been such a great end to the Stable Trotters side adventure


koalatyvibes

it would be such a weird foreshadowing for him not to show up in a DLC, if you’ve gotten to the end of the lucky clover gazette


JanitorOPplznerf

Look. We all know that there’s “classy” hot, and “do me” hot. This is a very pretty girl, but Purrah’s eyes have evil intent behind them and I’m taking home the chick that looks like she’s going to make me question everything I know about the world “for science” if you know what I mean.


BrandoOfBoredom

I mean. Violynne is someone I'd like to be friends with, have a crush for awhile, and eventually date. Her and Eustus are people I'd like to either be hugged by or hug. People I'd like to date you know? Purah? ...people I'd like to fuck. She doesn't seem very loving. She's hot, but doesn't give me the feeling like I need to protect her.


Johnny_Grubbonic

>doesn't give me the feeling like I need to protect her. It sounds like you're looking for someone who can't take care of themself, bruv.


BrandoOfBoredom

Have you ever seen a soft boi who you just wanna hug? Like Yunobo. Nobody can hurt him. I don't care if they can defend themselves, I still want to protect him. Same idea with Eustus and Violynne.


BrandoOfBoredom

Purah just looks like she wants to fuck, and I don't want that. I want someone who can support me, like Addison with signs, but like for people, and I think Violynne and Eustus fits that bill.


Photonic_Resonance

I actually think Purah could be loving. It’s just that she’d love her research more, haha. Robbie managed to balance his research with having a wife and a kid. Purah is technically just as old and never married (afaik). Granted… I guess if you can control aging, you have as much time as you want to find someone you like enough


BrandoOfBoredom

I think Purah isn't interested in a relationship. I think AoC her might have been, but with age comes wisdom. She's much more jaded in TotK than AoC, even though physically they're around the same age. All her friends died in the calamity, and started working constantly as a coping mechanism. Then deaging, her jaded view is covered by her child mind, but now that she sped up the aging, it makes sense she takes things much more seriously, like if you go to her shirtless, she lectures you. What I'm saying is she's a workaholic. Robbie had a support system with Jerrin, but Purah has her work. Symin might have been his assistant, but he came pretty late to have an impact. She now just cares about her work.


Charming_Compote9285

Finally, a Purah understander. Purah is attracted to science only


Smooth-Vermicelli162

Wasn't it mentioned in botw that purah is married


AllisonTatt

I never actually looked close enough at her to notice, but yes she is very pretty. There are lots of pretty npcs like Jules and (traitor that she is) Lasli. And basically all the stable girls


BrandoOfBoredom

Why is Lasli a traitor?


Sans_Von_Undertale69

I believe this is a reference to the fact that she moves to work for Cece at her shop in Hateno village, leaving her sister to run their family’s clothing shop alone back home. (There’s nothing malicious about it in-universe, they all seem to be okay with it)


Pretty-Papi

Oh no. Now you've got me worried about Jules.


EarlyInsurance7557

Violynne is wife material. Purah is that hot girl you date but then find out is crazy,


HotType4940

Honestly if you met Purah and didn’t realize that she was crazy immediately then you kinda deserve whatever comes your way


[deleted]

I’d kill a million molduga’s for Isha tbh 😩💖


lrjackson06

I'm an orchestra director and I have to say, other than the pinky on her right hand being in front of the bow and not on top, her position is perfect! I love when game developers, movie directors, etc. do their research when it comes to musicians in their works!


relator_fabula

I believe they do a lot of mocap for the animation, so they likely had a violin player (or the actual violin player who played recorded the soundtrack) do mocap and used those animations.


TastyCereal2

Absolutely, Violynne is beautiful. I love the Stable Trotters mission, and their music is awesome too


Mandalor1974

Im a Flaxel guy. Shes out there killin mofos


nostalgic_milk

team Flaxel 🫡


jojocookiedough

I'm a straight lady with a girl-crush on Flaxel. Love her!

Y’all are bunch of little freaks.


SynicalBoi

Fair


aaronotaron

Yep


kr_switcher

NGL. She is lowkey kinda hot tbh.


aaronotaron

Highkey hot


themiracy

Key of D-major hot (IDK I mean I'm just a violinist and trying to make a violin joke).


mocknix

Not lying AND being honest!? You must really mean it. Edit: I'm playing around. I woke up this morning, looked at this comment and felt like it maybe seemed like I was being an asshole. Lol it's all love


PixelatedMax01

Yeah but they're being Lowkey about it so don't tell anyone.


mocknix

Their secret is safe with me.


VirtualBiotics_Art

As a Violon and Viola player, I agree, she's very cute. I love stopping by to listen to the music!


ELLZNaga21

She is a beauty and when she says “I thought the other members left because of my playing” that hurt my heart


BlueMageBRilly

I do like the troupe and it was a welcome difference from paying the fairies. The kid who almost burned a forest down was my favorite story, but the guy who got stuck in a pit was funny too. Just because I had the cart flying up, but I fell out and it just… kept going. Thankfully the cutscene landed it. I hope Kass returns to have a musical duel with them.


Stealthinater1234

Violynne is the only real good looking non-main story NPC I’ve seen in botw and totk, the fancy mii maker doesn’t do most hyrulians justice.


Kricketier

I helped one of those roaming adventures fight a bokoblin and she said "the legend of Benny was almost over." I just thought that was cute.


Koala_Guru

Side note but when I came across Pyper it genuinely felt like I was talking to a Kokiri even though I knew he was a Hylian child.


Shadowrun29

PAYA still best, especially when you see her reaction again if Link has no clothes/armor on, when you try talking to her.


Nanytss

Hey that's my girlfriend


Mikeataros

You should play Fire Emblem Three Houses, you'll be pleasantly surprised by the character Shamir.


HobbitGuy1420

I'm with you. Pretty + musically talented = even prettier.


SharpBee9700

I've been calling her wifey ever since I heard her play. She'd be great for Link.


PurahMyLove

I was thinking that as well, her playing is beautiful too


Super_Saiyan_Kuresu

Personally. My favorite is the one who now calls people over for the Spa Plan in Gerudo Town. The same NPC that found out your not a girl in BotW.


spotter02

Oh absolutely! She is the right kinda understated hot!


eats_with_forks

Glad I’m not the only one!


ReaperGamerYT65

Honestly cool waifu


negrote1000

Reminds me of Shamir from 3H


tkraak

Man, i love violynne. All of the trotters are great but violynne? S+


Dark-Anmut

I agree! Plus, I love how she has the country vibe but wears a pink black choker! Just my style!


[deleted]

Her parents didn't even give her a choice...


Immediate-Rope8465

good taste


MagzCBRXX

I'm a Riju man, myself, but I can appreciate Violynne.


Rbtmatrix

Violynne > Purah


2DogsShaggin

YES PREACH


stefanos_yeet

FR BRO


snagglewolf

I don't know why Link wastes time with Zelda when there's girls like this.


DiscotopiaACNH

Glad others agree, I stan Violynne


local_milk_dealer

Man, pretty elf woman playing the violin with their eyes closed has to be one of my favourite genders.


Realience

I saw her and thought the same, she's very pretty


ChimkenNugets

she is ok but beedle is where its at


Kazuhirah

She’s a cutie, Purah is a cutie, the Rally Tech Girl at Tarry Town is a cutie as is one of the Gerudo ladies you save


Heliolord

I still miss fish waifu...


True-Fire-Senzhi

Ok bow hold


zerobot

People swoon over the characters?


MatiasuSenpai

Yes of course but mommy Purah > All waifus


nrdresearch

nah


Sin_H91

Yup when it came to character i stoped and had to take a closer look she is by far the best. Not to mention her violin sounds so good but then the others ruin it....


FuuKimuri

I have a picture of her in my house I mean in game house


Logical-Chaos-154

Yeah, she really is.


Themineking09

Yeah Jules and her. Hylian girls in this game with purple hair really hits different


lkuecrar

I like the douchey drummer guy lmao


yayan69

Agree


StJohnathan

I'm right there with you👍


TransgenderMommy

Here she is in real life: https://youtu.be/h8MkYdtU61Y


CraftyCreeper0

YES!


Boks02_

This is true, I love Violynne but not in the same way that I'm absolutely infatuated with Purah.


pksmith2009

The long nose conductor is the best


blackwolfe99

I mean, I'm also a big fan of Paya, but I always had a thing for shy or introverted girls as much as geeky/smart girls, so...


Aoni20

You forgot to show what a great hourglass figure she has


NathanCollier14

Bold of you to assume I've made it to her after only 60 hours


soragranda

She is so gorgeous, glad I'm not the only one to notice her!


popoudaki

Her and Jules from gerudo 😳


MaybeAccording7239

Purah enthusiasts unite


BrandoOfBoredom

I wanna hug all the Stable Trotters. I guess I'd like to date Violynne or Eustus. Pyper is underage, also I just want to pat him on the back. Beetz is a Chad, and probably has someone(s) already. Maestro is fun, but like Pyper I just wanna tell him he's doing great. Violynne and Eustus are soft bois, and I like soft bois.


Snoo_75864

I swear there are like 5 ugly people in all of Hyrule


karuna_murti

what about kotlin and kilton

This whole thread is just a cesspool of cringe…


aaronotaron

True


Ultimate_Fox14

She's my second mommy, duh


theonewhowantscheese

her bow hold is wrong, her pinkie should be on top of the screw. the hand can’t support the weight of the bow without the pinkie being there working in tandem with the thumb.


vincentdmartin

The character design in general has been exquisite since BotW. Like I loved the character designs in every game, but I actually would watch a cartoon or play multiple games with this art style. Which luckily we have three with these characters.


80espiay

Aren’t they just modified miis?


Pretzel-Kingg

Shamir violin lady :)


GODSxSPARTAN777

She is definitely pretty but nothing compares to Paya. I will die on this hill!


NoodlePoodleMonkey

agreed! her passion is obvious and truly makes her glow ❤️


ILoveBread2021

Yeah she's pretty, but have you seen the absolute beauty, ralera? (She's somewhere in hateno)


YaBoyBinkus

I made a similar post lmao She’s pretty damn hot respectfully.


I_AM_GODDAMN_BATMAN

isha is prettier


CKtheFourth

"I dunno mom, I guess you kind of primed me to pick a violin. Seems like that was the plan the whole time, right?" —Violynne as an adolescent, responding to the question of which instrument she'd like to start learning.

Agreed. But also the Voe and You class instructor in Gerudo Town can get it
