I recently actually take a closer look at the Champions' diary and i just can't stop thinking about how they all write about deep stuff about their life (Mipha's feeling for Link, Urbosa and the Queen/Zelda, Revali's training) and then there's Daruk :
No but seriously please he's so underrated
He's just Uncle Daruk eating rocks and having some trouble with his divine beast and then eating more rocks
Song - Gun For Hire - Woodkid
guys am i cooking ??? (i noticed the audio kinda glitched for some reason so don't mind that)
It's been SOOOOO long since i had the urge to animate to this song because GUHHHH IT FITS SO WELL GRGGGGhpaefhpaefhpaef
So ye first part hopefully i'll be able to finish !!
Children Daruk, Urbosa and Malva (Zelda's mother)
Those 3 were 100% childhood friends and you can't make me think otherwise.
Headcanon rant : I think they met during some kind of ceremony. While their parents talked together, they were playing on the side ! Urbosa and Daruk knew each others before however, as Daruk's parent were travelers so they ended up in Gerudo Town ! I think it'd be a nice thing (funny thing ?) that Daruk would just be like Yunobo personality wise, and Urbosa is just trying to motivate/protect/help him all the time. Kinda brother and sister. Malva then came, while she started as a shy/silent person, she slowy became more confortable within the group ! (i like to think Urbosa was yapper and Malva listener and then growing up Malva became yapper and Urbosa listener)
Anywaysssss i really would love to make some comics with those babies so we'll see if my adhd let me do that
Champions Headcanon
Sometimes Urbosa host a champion meeting in Gerudo town to annoy Revali because he's the only one to not be able to get in (Link was already dressing up as a vai by that time)
Because yes Daruk can, as proven in botw : "Male Goron doesn't have any trouble getting into Gerudo town" and Aoc: during a vai only quest inside Gerudo town you can still play as Daruk
It often ends up with Revali trying to get in by force by flying above, which ends up with him getting kicked out by Gerudo guards and/or throw in jail
he know he could dress as a vai to get in like Link but he absolutely refuse to do so
