Ruto and Link

[DW]

That's not what I'm saying at all. What I'm saying is that you can't say the Zelda planet couldn't have come out like ours because it's fiction, i.e. you have no idea how it went down.

...Actually, it's pretty well established that the three goddesses created the world. And I'd like to see you tell me you know exactly how they did that.

they created it much the same way God created Earth, I imagine, but how it was made isn't important, it's what it was made into.

I'm not saying it's impossible for it to have urned out the same as Earth, I'm saying it's very very highly improbable, very close to impossible. You think of all the combinations that are possible, and the chances of those two matching aren't looking good, so it seems more logical to go with the greater odds.

[Commodore Axilon]

Except, as I've already stated, it doesn't really exist, so it doesn't matter how likely or not it is!

[DW]

I can't even tell what we're arguing about...

[Commodore Axilon]

I guess if Hyrule can be expected to generally work the same as Earth. *shrugs*

Which is kinda off-topic, isn't it? ;)

[DW]

Well actually it isn't, because how Hyrule is set up would determine whether Ruto and Link could have kids.

[Bboy94]

Maybe the Zora Tunic allows him to use those gills. He may not be able to otherwise. remember, this is a different universe, different laws of physics and everything...

I can't believe your taking this seriously. Thats like saying we couldn't use our lungs unless we wore a special hat.

<_<

* Bboy94 takes off hat

>_>

The don't have gills becuase Link can drown. And Uli (Rusl's wife) in TP is obviously pregnate for the majority of the game, thus they don't lay eggs. Any more insane theorys for me to disprove?

Well what if she is pregnant with an egg? Or better yet, maybe Link and Ruto... uh... and then she is pregnant with eggs instead of live birth and then she gives birth to eggs which then hatch!

I'm not even gonna bother argueing anymore. You aparently were sleeping during biology class.

I never heard of anyone saying you couldn't give birth to an egg. It would be like having a baby still in its sac.

[IronKnuckle]

Pregnancy is a trait of things who give birth to live babies. An egg laying species (such as a bird or fish) cannot become pregnant.

[DW]

I believe Echidnas do though, don't they?

[IronKnuckle]

I believe Echidnas do though, don't they?

And platapuses too. But answer this: Do Hylians have more in common with humans or platapusses?

[DW]

1) its platypi
2) are echidna more like hedgehogs or platypi?

[Fishalicious]

1) its platypi

There is no universally agreed upon plural for platypus. It's usually said as "platypuses," "platypoda," or just "platypus."

And as for the echidna question... the four species of echidna are monotremes, as is the platypus.

I thought we were dicusing Ruto and Link, not grammer.
An echidna is like a hedgehog, yes.
Anyway, except for the ears, Hylians look exactly like humans so it is very likely that the have live birth like humans.

[DW]

Likely, but not definite.

An echidna looks like a hedgehog much more than a platypus, but as stated before, it is in the same family as the platypus and shares more properties of a platypus than of a hedgehog. Yes, Hylians look human, but for all we know they could be Marsupial. they are always wearing clothes, maybe they have pouches?

[Hi no Seijin]

Link certainly had no problem with going into Ricky's pouch.  I know I'd be a bit uneasy unless it was a natural thing for me.

[DW]

I dunno, those things sound pretty cozy to me, I wouldn't hesitate. ;D I would probably be scared to ride on a giant blue flying bear or a dinosaur though :-[
