let’s meet our heroes!

(who we’ll call by their well known names for simple sake)

————————————————————————

Wild(Link Azure Rune)[Age: 17]{Civilian nickname: Azul, Cook, Champion or “Champ”, “Cub”/Only Twilight calls him this/}

he’s technically our ‘pink lead’ or ‘mini leader’ of the ‘main’ team. He lived in the suburbs of Hateno with his parents and own younger sister. He befriended Mipha and Daruk when he was little around the age of 4 when his family had visited both Mipha’s and Daruk’s homelands respectively. He later gets to know Flora, Revali, and Urbosa when he was around 12 and sure things were a little rocky with Flora and Revali at the start of things but later they became thick as thieves, and with three more to add to the friend group(they still stay in touch even after he befriends the rest of the “chain”). Fast forward to 17 and he’s now in high school, one that’s he’s just transferring into due to having to move to Central Hyrule City because of his dad’s new job working as a castle guard for the royal family. While he is grateful he technically gets to be in the same class as Flora, Mipha and Revali(they’re helpful too). He pretty much still imitated by pretty much everything else around him. Such as not only the school being way bigger than his former one, not to mention the multiple number of students too. Sheer number is way intimidating than he can ever imagine, luckily he ends up meeting Wind and Tetra by literally bumping into them, they both actually help Wild. He was also pretty much there during the first attack cause it literally happened on the first day of school, just literally after school too(Seriously he was going to meet up with Flora, Mipha and Revali too). So there’s a Lynel wreaking havoc and Wild almost got caught up in one of the attacks if it hadn’t been someone pulling him out of the way, this someone being Warriors, and getting scolded a second later about why Wild was just standing there and it’s dangerous here so he should run. However Wild soon spots a familiar face. Wind and Tetra were both in trouble, and seeing he rather not stand by and do nothing. He rushed straight into the battle with one of the dropped bow with their extra arrows on the ground. Even though Warriors pretty much told him to just freaking run and get out of there. That actually triggered something in Wild as the moment he shot that arrow at the lynel, that arrow was engulfed in a bright glow making it enough to piece and stun the lonely in place, giving Wind and Tetra more than enough time to get out of there(Wind however noticed there was something familiar about the one that saved him and Tetra just now). Wild newly grabbed bow began to transform into something else. A transformation device that lets Wild turn into his hero form, and Wild doesn’t even think twice on whenever or not he should use it or not. The moment he does, Wild has a rush of memories he doesn’t even remember having before(Memories as the Original Wild) and powers he wasn’t even aware he has awakening as well. He uses this new power to actually fight the lynel and actually holding up pretty well(got to quickly rescue Mipha for a quick second), especially having way too much fun snipering lynel with a bunch of arrows, before soon finishing it off with his finisher move. Lynel is defeated and taken down, Wild and Warriors find a spot hidden from the public as Wild got a whole lot of media attention being that “The Hero of Wild has somehow returned to save the day” and “Does this mean the other nine heroes of courage will show up”. Wild is definitely a handful regardless he still has a lot of things to learn to actually adjust to living in Central Hyrule City, especially now having hero duties too(plus being reminded that he needs to keep his identity secret too).

Warriors(Link Leo Griffin)[Age: 24]{Civilian nickname: Captain or “Cap”}

He’s pretty much lived in Central Hyrule City for his whole life(his family too but still) and currently while he’s one of the newer castle guards just recently assigned to watch over one of the royal family members(Legend). He sometimes acts as the ‘main’ group leader, he actually awaken his memories prematurely compared to getting his actual powers upon one day running into Time when he was younger, so he knows the ins and outs of what they are dealing with, he just needs to figure out how to trigger his own powers as well. He awaken his powers when Wild was in trouble while fighting Gohma, and not only that but Time who just happened to be there at the wrong time also got captured too by said monster(Mr Lon Lon cannot exactly transform unless he wants his identity as “Time” to be downright exposed), he didn’t want to be stuck on the side lines as he couldn’t do anything to help Wild or Time(Mask|Sprite). Warriors was going to save those two if it the last thing he’ll do. His powers finally trigger in that moment and he’s finally able to transform to not only get both Wild and Time out of that webbing the two were trapped in before(and Time being able to escape, he however doesn’t transform seeing Warriors have things handle, and not just because he wants to see Warriors in action, nope 😶) but manage to work together with Wild in dealing with Gohma but also got to use his own finisher move on the monster too. Having save Wild and Time, and getting out of there(don’t want to accidentally reveal himself after all). He’s more than happy of having his powers had unlocked, of course regardless he’s just glad the both of them are okay and alright, he even got to hug both of them properly once they were properly hidden from public eye. So, now that he is able to help out more than ever(he didn’t just want to watch from the sidelines and be unable to do anything to help, heck, he even loathed the fact of being unable save the ones he cares for before too). Unfortunately he still has royal guard duties aka he needs to guard a certain someone from the royal family and that someone also seems to really dislike him(or potentially seems to hate his own guts, this luckily gets solved later).

Wind(Link Zephyr Kainalu)[Age: 14]{Civilian nickname: Sailor}

The youngest of the team. Wind lives on one of the close by islands with his grandma and little sister. Though he also stays with his best friend and fellow partner in crime Tetra when staying on the mainland with her, he been staying there a lot more recently cause of the new school he’s attending with her. He awakens to his memories and powers after noticing Wild been acting old, and had also been going straight for this odd little cafe with that guy that follows that “Felicity” guy more. Followed them all the way to a nearby port, gets caught by them both, later gets to see Wild and Warriors literally turn into the two heroes of courage that literally been making a huge buzz at school to fight that huge octo that just appeared(something about that monster felt familiar to Wind but he doesn’t know why), see them doing awesome before the giant tentacle ensnarls the two making it not awesome, spots Linebeck’s boat that has a cannon, uses that cannon to blast the thing to oblivion(Well tries to, also Wind will remember to apologize to Linebeck later if he accidentally wreaks it), oh past memories and powers come back, now he can actually put that octo in its place. Battles the thing with the powers, and than eventually uses his own finisher move on octo monster. So after that fight Wind pretty much collapsed(being caught by Warriors) looking pretty much shocked and yet very much amazed “That was f****king sick and awesome”, well was until he saw Linebeck’s boat uhhh, wreaked(Uh oh, no wonder Wind used his wind waker to quickly get all three of them out of there seconds later). Wind now part of the team! He definitely makes things more exciting by being here, he is more than eager to be with the others again even if not exactly all the chain yet. Random side note he does have an older cousin that is just two years older than him, who Wind noticed been acting slightly off since the start of this whole mess. Wind is not stupid to not notice how his cousin looks at certain things and than gets a headache afterwards(also Wind still curses cause well 🏴‍☠️, doesn’t stop some of the older members giving the sailor a certain look for said cursing).

Legend(Link Felicity Hyrule)[Age: 18]{Civilian nickname: Veteran or “Vet”} and Hyrule(Link Le Fey)[Age: 17]{Civilian nickname: Traveler or “Trav”, or “Fae”}

Both Legend and Hyrule are considered a duo and actually work together as a team pretty well(plus it’s not too uncommon to see the two of them together either). Legend and Hyrule met when they were kids being the ages 7 and 6 respectively. Due to each other’s influence, they were not as quite alone or lonely compared to their time as the First “Legend” and “Hyrule”. Sure Legend is still technically snappy but Hyrule helps reeling in Legend before he goes overboard(plus is the only Legend is willing to be soft around and not be as snappy. There are others, like Ravio Lorule[and Marin] but Hyrule is the first), and Hyrule has the tendency to apologize for things even it isn’t his fault which Legend helps stick up for him(Legend can’t tell you how many times he stuck up for Hyrule since he knows Hyrule can be too nice to say otherwise, especially when Hyrule says it’s fine and leave it be. Legend doesn’t believe that). However the two will always be grateful and thankful for each other’s presence in both of their lives. Plus they’re quite a fearsome pair when they work together. Also Legend has more than once wanted to punch Warriors in the face for the constant following and guarding the older does(Just because Legend’s technically part of the royal family does not mean he needs someone to follow him like a baby duck), Hyrule always stopped him from doing so. They both awakened to their past memories and powers when Legend notices Warriors isn’t as going as following crazy as he normally does, and actually decides to go confront Warriors about it because it isn’t quite like him to be acting this ‘off’ with Hyrule coming along as well just so Legend doesn’t turn it into a shouting match between him and Warriors. Long story short hijinks ensures as not only do Wild and Wind get to see what Warriors does in this life but who he supposed to be technically ‘watching’ over too, they plus Hyrule get to see Legend and Warriors butting heads. A lot(clear deja-vu for our team as the banter was quite familiar too). Later a monster Gleeok(something both Legend and Hyrule clearly feel a good amount of deja-vu around) shows up and Warriors tries to get Legend and Hyrule to leave/run. Legend and Hyrule obviously refuses as what exactly would that mean for the three staying behind. Wild and Wind already rushes in to transform with Warriors warning them a little too late about uhhh, Legend and Hyrule still here. With both now pretty much in shock. Despite that they do manage stay out of the way fighting till, one of the heads from Gleeok tried to crush both Legend and Hyrule, Warriors and Wild get the two out of the way but is instead nearly crushed instead if it weren’t for Wind’s quick thinking by him using the phantom sphere. Either way Legend and Hyrule have to deal with the fact that Warriors and Wild just saved their lives however regardless both of the two now really want to help out, especially when at some point Wild, Warriors, and Wind don’t seem fast enough to keep up with the monster. The duo become more desperate to help upon seeing Gleeok nearly crushing the three heroes, wanting to be fast enough to save and protect them.

Around this moment both Legend and Hyrule’s past memories come flooding back, plus their powers too. They transform into their heroes forms while also suddenly getting a whole lot faster than before as not only does Legend and Hyrule get the three out of the way very quickly, but also managed to make the Gleeok back off with their powers too. So after working Legend and Hyrule into the plan, they all work together to take down the monster and the new duo use their finisher move on the monster together. Taking down the monster, Legend and Hyrule get a now whole chance to process, well everything(I will not deny they did end up hugging each other greatly after this fight). With Legend and Hyrule being part of the team now, it actually makes things easier on Warriors’ guard duty for Legend as with both of them being the heroes of courage, as this technically means Warriors’ is filling his duty of being a guard to Legend and Legend doesn’t need more random guards that aren’t Warriors to follow him(heck even Hyrule if the other was with him) everywhere either. Doesn’t stop Legend and Warriors arguing about it. Also Legend technically lives in a grand lavish mansion now(still has an apple orchard in the back and cause Legend upright refuses to live in the royal castle) cause he’s technically part of Royal Family(Hyrule even technically gets his own room due to constantly visiting Legend too).

Twilight(Link Twil Ordona)[Age: 23]{Civilian Nickname: Rancher or “Ranch hand”}

He’s from the countryside of Ordon. He only recently moved to Central Hyrule City due to a new job opening that allow him to make more money for his adoptive family at home. He actually met up with someone who actually his blood related older cousin(Time) that allowed him to have this job. He awakens his memories and powers after returning from a job errand he ran before and just so happen to already met the rest of ‘main’ team on said return. He actually gotten along with them alright(thought Legend might have been prickly but gives him the benefit of the doubt, especially seeing the others trusting him so much). Anyway, he went looking for them after getting pretty worried about them from a recent attack by a monster with a weird shaped stone face, a shadow beast.(Doesn’t help Twilight feels an uncomfortable familiarity with said monster too). He shouldn’t exactly know where he was going with it getting dark and he can’t see. However he somehow still know where exactly to go, like being guided by instinct(that strange yet beautifully enchanting woman’s advice is ringing through his ears again) so he follows said instinct. He almost seems faster than normal. He finally gets to the others, and sees the five heroes instead however all five were hurt and can barely get up. Clearly struggling to fight this monster, and yet despite that. Something at him screams “HURRY TO THEM, SAVE THEM” and than Twilight’s eyes almost get more wolf like “PROTECT YOUR PACK WOLF!” and without even thinking he runs to get to them as fast he can, and howls getting both the group of five and the large beast’s attention(and in made it stop it’s approach to the heroes). From this his powers and past memories immediately awakened as he ran to them. He also immediately transformed into his hero form and not a second later that, he immediately shifted into his wolf form and managed to knock back the shadow beast away from the heroes. Plus is the only one to easily navigate through the darkness as well, he has “walked” through it before. With this giving the heroes a fighting chance and Twilight shifting back to his hero form to use his own finisher move on the beast. He nearly collapsed once the adrenaline wore off after seeing the beast was completely vanquished. However It was only after this battle and sees that the others were safe.

He realized something, and after soon leaving the group of five heroes behind(greatly startling them by doing this) , he immediately goes to look for the woman he recognized as “Midna” from his past life. However, she was no where to be found. As if she was never there at all. The others later catch up to him, they all get a proper conversation(Wild already bear hugging Twilight at this point) and lead Twilight back to their home base(while making sure normal folk don’t spot them). They didn’t realize the one Twilight was looking for watching off from far off with a small smile of her own. Random detail though, He still calls his family in Ordon when he gets the chance to as even though he isn’t there in person with them. That doesn’t mean he can’t stay in contact with them. Especially telling them how he himself is doing. Twilight can also tell how eager his adoptive younger brother is to not only getting to see him(especially the rare chance of Twilight coming back to Ordon for a visit), but also it slowly seems more and more likely that the little guy would want to visit too.

Time(Link Kokiri Lon Lon)[Age:*Looks physically around 30 ish but uhh age is debatable for this guy as well, he won’t exactly bother to say nor tell said age*]{Civilian Nickname: “Old man” or “Mr Lon Lon” or “Mask”/“Sprite”Only Warriors calls him this/}

He’s not part of the ‘main’ team and instead served as the mentor to our little group. He is considered to be one of the “legendary cures” and is technically the first of to awaken to his past life memories and activate his powers at literally the age of 16(be glad it was not 9 or that would have been a whole different mess) as he unlocked them saving his girlfriend(Later wife) Malon(who also later get her past memories after the night she and Link got married). He’s more been help protect the city from the shadows and has been able to stay under the radar for quite a long time before he went more official when, well , lynel but before he can get there to transform to save Warriors and quickly deal with the situation, boom Wild, and the rest of the ‘main’ team following suit. Time does get his own chance to shine, not telling you how exactly(*COUGH*Mask festival*COUGH*)

Sky(Link Caelus Loftwing)[Age: 21]{Civilian Nickname: Caelus or “Cal”}

He is also not exactly part of the ‘main’ team and also a mentor for them despite his age. He also considered to be one of the “legendary cures”. Like Time there still moments or events either he or Time or both do jump in to help out the ‘main team’ whenever he can. His small time cafe “The Chain” that he runs with Sun(his girlfriend of at least 5 years, were childhood friends long before that), is actually where the base of operations or “Home Base” for the heroes(what better cover for our team of heroes than to be at the cafe working part time as waiters that just so happens to be very popular with customers). That aside he can technically summon his past life Loftwing partner “Crimson”. Luckily for Sky, Crimson really good at hiding from people that shouldn’t exactly know he exists.

Four(Link Serenity Smith)[Age: 16]{Civilian Nickname: Smith or “Smithy”}

Four here, is considered as our “Sixth” ranger. He actually doesn’t join the team for sometime as originally he’s a very unique case. Unlike the others, his past memories and powers as the original ‘Four’ were separated from his current self due to a very unique case, that unlike what happened with the rest of the original chain. Four’s “self” was still around as a Sword Spirit(who managed to look more human compared to other sword spirits) in the Four Sword(More will or might be explained in separate post). So cause of that Four had a normal ish life(Sure he felt things that were strangely familiar, his thoughts felt like they want to go four different ways. Not to mention the recent “Heroes of Courage” that showed up recently and people began to talk about them left and right, so despite that), it’s all good, not like he has anything to do with the weirdness(No the occasional headaches at weird times that are totally not connected with each other don’t count). Well, that was until he actually finds out who the “Heroes of Courage” were by mere accident after watching his younger cousin transform into “Wind” thus figuring out who the rest were(Four is definitely inner freaking out, this whole time his younger cousin and those odd group of guys said cousin been with. Had been the heroes of courage the whole time. Give him a few minutes), he soon begins to help with behind the scenes as he isn’t capable of taking part of the fighting himself as how can he possibly help out on the frontlines again? Didn’t stop from Four also becoming a part of the group as well too(aka friend too). He only began to truly help out with the battles by awakening to his past memories and powers. This relates to the fact his best friend “Mira”(or Shadow) being forced to work for the villains(More details will be explored on a separate post) and Four was protecting Wind at the time. Four’s defiance in refusing to give into fear or despair allowed Shadow to find the courage to take a leap of faith and throw Four the four sword back after having to steal it in the first place, which allowed Four’s past memories and powers to be awaken. Shadow got pulled under the curse that was inflicted on him because of the betrayal he just did, and Four refused to let “Mira” suffer for something that was never his fault. He immediately transforms and easily falls into his new(old) battle instincts very quickly as he manages to not only be on par with Shadow and the monster that was also there but give the others enough time to recover too, during this battle he did manage to chip off a piece of the control on Shadow however he was taken away before Four could actually set Shadow free from whatever control it was. Four is pretty much devastated(tired too) having lost his best friend to the villains. However he has the others there with him for support, and thus the last of the “Nine Heroes of Courages” are finally back together at last. Four was already part of the group by than so it’s more official now(he did get the very awkward experience of how his own memories are supposed to fit together, at least he wasn’t bedridden like a certain past split of his in his previous life). Side note, he apparently can summon a large bird like creature(Another loftwing like Sky) named “Zeffa” so. Now Four has a pet bird he’ll have to pretty much take care of and not let anyone else(that’s not the chain plus Malon and Sun as well as anyone else that already in on that little “secret”) know he has said huge bird, especially his dad(which is already awkward enough as it is. Four doesn’t need to add fuel to that fire by his dad accidentally seeing Zeffa somehow).

A Linked Universe Modern AU

I came up with an AU and I haven’t seen anyone else ran with this exact type of AU(yeah I seen modern aus of LU, just not the exact one I’m doing) I’m doing for the fandom yet so. For this I’ll do it myself, and call this AU

✨Magical Nine Courages✨

I know real original[/sar]. There’s the fact I made it kinda magical girl like too(mix of Precure and Sailor Moon plus some Tokyo Mew Mew, maybe super hero girls and power rangers/super sentai too?). So yeah. Now basic story or gist AHEM

The chain or the team of Links have technically long had their adventures and met each other, plus long ended the reincarnation cycle/curse thanks to their time traveling adventure they had together. However it has long faded into history all the way to modern day in the kingdom of Hyrule(aka everything we have now they have too, like phones, cars, and the most wonderful ✨internet✨[COUGH TUMBLR TOO COUGH] difference is that they technically still have ✨magic✨) and people are still trying to put together their history and better understand them(especially the most famous nine heroes depicted in them). Of course this peace couldn’t last forever, someone wants to bring back Ganon and wreck havoc once again. This of course is bad, very bad, as one certain high school gets attacked by some kind of overpowered monster(which first of all, monsters should be NO WHERE near the city or heck even in it. Second that monster shouldn’t be as OP as heck too). If only there are heroes that can stand up to such a threat, just like the legendary heroes of courage. Well, they are out there. They just need to be called on again ————————————————————————

It’s still an honor for you to like my comic dub so much. So I thank you for this very praise even if it seems a bit redundant. It’s still very much an honor to hear such praise from you

Downfall Duo's nightmare

I just wanted to draw the nightmares of Legend and Hyrule, but instead it turned out like this.

If you're confused about why Legend kissed Four, it's because he thought he was holding Marin's hand. And in his dream he is drowning and wants to kiss Marin before he dies.

I love the idea of Downfall Duo creating chaos in The Chain XD

Sorry if my tenses are wrong, but I hope you understand :D

*Is more than willing to hug you back* Okay first of all. I’m very happy you really really really liked it.

Second of all, I actually always wanted to dub one, so being able to dub this comic has been more than honor so thanks ^^. Plus I’m really proud of being able to do Four’s voice aka his screaming(The colors too), not to say I’m any less proud of the other voices I did here, like Hyrule’s, Legend’s, Wild’s Time’s, and Warriors’s(yes I also technically did the monsters voices that kidnapped Hyrule in that one nightmare too). It’s just Four’s my favorite Link so, well TwT💧. I actually always wanted to be a voice actress but not entirely sure if I could really do it so being able to get my voice out there by voicing this really makes me happy. Being able to bring the comic life was more than enough for, especially like those animes/video games/anything else I saw gave me inspiration how for it to fit together. Watching those also gave me more than enough to help me put the music and sound effects together too. Regardless I really look forward to maybe make more comic dubs someday especially from your lovely and beautiful artwork 🖼️. I really love your artwork and comics a whole lot ^^. Well as long your cool with it that is.

This might be surprising but I dubbed this comic

So after finding out I can technically dub @la-sera work. I made this. Of course I can technically always improve it one day in the future but for now I worked with what I got

I do not own this comic aka this amazing artwork. The only thing I own is my own voice here.

I also did a small ish bonus segment at the end for fun. I really do hope this does the comic and @la-sera justice(while I also techinally gave my own spin on it)

This definitely checks out, I was thinking about how technically Aurora’s brother could be the one responsible for the turning to dark side prophecy therefore order to kill any prince with goddess blood. But this definitely works too, angst boosting potential too as Hyrule would definitely feel very horrible seeing as his blood can revive Ganon. However I like to believe Legend and Hyrule will still maintain their bond regardless as this is where the comfort of the hurt comfort comes into play. So I like it ^^

Linked Universe Headcanons I have

I’ve been in the fandom for awhile now, and I got a couple headcanons formed cause of it(might add more to it if I remember/think of more to add here)

————————————————————————

Four and Wind are related being each other’s ancestor and descendant respectively. Four is very fond of both Wind and Aryll. He’s slightly protective of them too.

Wind and Tetra’s great great granddaughter is Spirit Tracks Zelda while Aryll’s great great grandson is Spirit or Spirit Tracks Link.

Fable and Legend are twins(therefore Legend part of family tree), though they were separated at birth due to a very unfair law regarding about natural born princes that formed in the downfall timeline(Do not worry Legend and Fable obviously got rid of that law when Fable became queen). The Hylia “bastards” became a thing in that timeline.

Ravio and Hilda are twins as well. It’s just Ravio stays as prince of Lorule never actually came up(heck none of the citizens of Lorule realize that Ravio is well “Ravio”, not just because he wore that bunny mask. Mostly due to Ravio as prince behave cold and detached. He cares for Lorule just as much, but well. He is very cunning for a reason)

Four has a dad. It’s just said dad was very busy with his knight duties and wasn’t very home often thus making things very awkward between both father and son, especially when Four was part of the knights of Hyrule for sometime(FSA Manga beginning) but later switch back to being a blacksmith. Four and his dad are getting along slightly better since FSA. It still can be awkward at times

Sky very fond of his great great great whatever how many greats granddaughters aka the other Zeldas(after he actually got through the process of being embarrassed he and Sun basically created the entire royal bloodline). He’s a hugger too, and he also hugs Legend upon finding out the other is his great great great whatever how many great grandson.

Twilight is actually Legend’s and Fable’s uncle in another life. Dusk is also Legend’s and Fable’s mother in another life. Maybe?(I’m on the fence on this one but I really like it :D)

Hyrule’s mom from another life is Tatl. It was pretty interesting when he ran into her in Time’s era. Especially considering Hyrule is technically half fairy 🧚🏼‍♂️(based on my headcanon on him)

Let’s just say in the time where all the timelines merge back into one aka Warriors’s era. Legend, Hyrule, Twilight, and Wind own spirits that dwell will get the most interesting experience of having two other lifetime of memories shoved into their heads(the timeline they were heroes in being the most prominent or more present in their psyche. At least the ones they personally chose to identify themselves as, aka it’s filtered to be the one they remember immediately, they have to actually try to think to remember the other two timelines. Both Twilight and Legend were pretty awkward around it each other cause of it). Time got lucky cause it was only two timelines worth of memories, the one he lived and the fallen(got the most awkward experience of remembering himself dying in the fallen timeline), Four though. Oh boy, all three set of memories from three different timelines cause well. Remember the palace of the four sword and he was sealed in the sword somehow. Yeah all three sets of memories of three different timelines shoved into his head does not sit pretty well in his head for him. Pretty sure he fainted at least four seconds later after that(and does not have the same type of filter as the others contributed to that as his own lifetime was before the split by Time), at least he was with Sky(Sky got lucky |:[).

Warriors, Time/Mask, and Wind both knew each other during the war. They bonded pretty well to the point they actually saw each other’s as brothers(heck Wind actually tackled hug Warriors when seeing him again).

Time may not exactly behave like it but he still has a mischievous gremlin streak. He just hides it way better than he did when he was younger. Hyrule is Legend’s descendant. Therefore technically related to the royal family but very distantly.

Twilight knows the Lon Lon family song, even if he doesn’t exactly remember where it came from since he was very little when he had wandered into the forest of Ordon. Rusl and Uli were his adoptive parents in a way cause of it(bless them, they were very kind and sweet for him. Colin and his younger sister adore Twilight just as much)

all the Links are all canonically very attentive and beautiful. Unfortunately Four and Legend have this feminine look and feel to them that sometimes get them mistaken for being fair maidens more than once. Legend gets it worse off as at least the way Four presents himself helps(when split as the colors, it’s Red and Vio that get mistaken as girls out of the four). Of course that doesn’t mean Four and Legend don’t take advantage of it when seeing/spotting a good opportunity to use the ability of being mistaken for being female(doesn’t help both have scary talent in being able to mimic a female voice very well).

Four has a dogish cat named “Wolfie”. Who unlike normal cats, actually recognized Four and protected him from other cats(Wolfie happened to love the Minish just as much as Four does). Wolfie the only cat Four actually adores, cause in Four’s words “Wolfie is an exception, he isn’t like any regular cat!” just like Legend would feel about Pyoko since Pyoko’s a cucco, and cuccos are something all the chain(except for Sky) would fear and rather keep away from at all times.(also yes Four is well aware the fact his cat named “Wolfie” and there’s a wolf named “Wolfie” too)

Four, Time, and Legend have one of the most beautiful singing voices out of all the chain. All of them have great singing voices however Four, Time, and Legend have the most beautiful in that order(of course Legend doesn’t show that talent of singing off either as slightly open as the others due to well, everything he been through, especially what happened with Marin, she was the last person he had sung his whole heart for, Ravio has actually helped Legend slowly open up with his singing. Time doesn’t sing as much either however Warriors and Wind remember how beautiful and soothing sounding Mask’s own singing was, and Time is slowly getting more willing to sing the more time he spent with the chain. Four actually was the most comfortable and okay singing in front of others regarding out of the three. Also, they technically have Disney Princess quality singing, heck maybe even better.)

Time/Mask used to love singing often back in the Kokiri Forest. Even though he had his status as a no fairy boy back than, not even Mido can deny Link had the most beautiful singing voice out of the Kokiri. Every creature in the forest loved hearing Link’s singing. Time/Mask later stopped because of his journey especially after Navi left and his time in Termina(the only person he was even willing to sing for at the time was Malon, Epona was an already guaranteed). He slowly did get comfortable singing privately for Warriors, Artemis, and Wind. Later it would extend to the rest of the chain especially Twilight and Wild.

Out of all the colors, Green actually got to keep the soft soothing singing voice Four is practically known for. of course they all technically have Four’s beautiful singing voice, it’s just Green has the most beautiful singing when it comes to gentle and soft songs(like Zelda’s Lullaby) The other colors got the other parts of Four’s singing voice aka they sing the other parts of Four’s singing very well(I will answer which parts of it another time). Random side note but Shadow really good at singing too to the point he and Four can do a duet with each other(He and Vio already did one together once, but only that one time)

Wild may not be able to easily recoil the memories as his own. He still feels some remnant of attachment and love for Mipha. Especially since Mipha had always seen Wild, as himself not just “the hero”. Mipha’s spirit stayed with Wild even if she had a chance to pass on. She didn’t.

Warriors is Spirit or Spirit Track Link. He and Artemis(whose Spirit Track Zelda) experienced the timeline merging when they were around they were the ages of 16-17, and they woke up one morning not only seeing that new Hyrule freaking changed! That not only that the country now called Hyrule again, both Warriors and Artemis literally woke up with two other set of memories they clearly know were not there the night before. It was not the most enjoyable experience for either of them(Will not always use this type of headcanon but I do really liked it and might use it in some works of mine)

Legend experience at the palace of the four sword was traumatizing to say the very least. Especially when he later realized he killed Four in that time as he didn’t recognize Four at first(just a sense of dread he can’t explain). He only realized upon seeing Four split for the first time his mind clicked that yeah. He killed an older Four there. Legend couldn’t exactly look Four properly in the eye for awhile

Four became a sword spirit after LU(No I will not elaborate how exactly. Let’s just say “Palace of the Four Sword”). That random and potentially angst idea aside, Four can still see the Minish as he is intertwined with them long enough to still be able to see them possibly all the way till he is very old and grey.

The Chain do reunite once more after their adventure. How? That part is up for debate. Very up to debate.

Also I really like the headcanon that the Hero of Men(one that Four looked up to a lot just as much as he did with the hero of skies) was actually a minish. A forest minish to be exact

————————————————————————

And that’s all I can think of for now. Still might add more later, who knows. 😅

Linked Universe Headcanons I have

I’ve been in the fandom for awhile now, and I got a couple headcanons formed cause of it(might add more to it if I remember/think of more to add here)

————————————————————————

Four and Wind are related being each other’s ancestor and descendant respectively. Four is very fond of both Wind and Aryll. He’s slightly protective of them too.

Wind and Tetra’s great great granddaughter is Spirit Tracks Zelda while Aryll’s great great grandson is Spirit or Spirit Tracks Link.

Ravio and Hilda are twins as well. It’s just Ravio status as prince of Lorule never actually came up(heck none of the citizens of Lorule realize that Ravio is well “Ravio”, not just because he wore that bunny mask. Mostly due to Ravio as prince behave cold and detached. He cares for Lorule just as much, but well. He is very cunning for a reason)

Twilight is actually Legend’s and Fable’s uncle in another life. Dusk is also Legend’s and Fable’s mother in another life. Maybe?(I’m on the fence on this one but I really like it :D)

Let’s just say in the time where all the timelines merge back into one aka Warriors’s era. Legend, Hyrule, Twilight, and Wind own spirits that dwell will get the most interesting experience of having two other lifetime of memories shoved into their heads(the timeline they were heroes in being the most prominent or more present in their psyche. At least the ones they personally chose to identify themselves as, aka it’s filtered to be the one they remember immediately, they have to actually try to think to remember the other two timelines. Both Twilight and Legend were pretty awkward around each other cause of it). Time got lucky cause it was only two timelines worth of memories, the one he lived and the fallen(got the most awkward experience of remembering himself dying in the fallen timeline), Four though. Oh boy, all three set of memories from three different timelines cause well. Remember the palace of the four sword and he was sealed in the sword somehow. Yeah all three sets of memories of three different timelines shoved into his head does not sit pretty well in his head for him. Pretty sure he fainted at least four seconds later after that(and does not have the same type of filter as the others contributed to that as his own lifetime was before the split by Time), at least he was with Sky(Sky got lucky |:[).

all the Links are all canonically very attractive and beautiful. Unfortunately Four and Legend have this feminine look and feel to them that sometimes get them mistaken for being fair maidens more than once. Legend gets it worse off as at least the way Four presents himself helps(when split as the colors, it’s Red and Vio that get mistaken as girls out of the four). Of course that doesn’t mean Four and Legend don’t take advantage of it when seeing/spotting a good opportunity to use the ability of being mistaken for being female(doesn’t help both have scary talent in being able to mimic a female voice very well).

Out of all the colors, Green actually got to keep the soft soothing singing voice Four is practically known for. Of course they(Green, Red, Blue, and Vio) all technically have Four’s beautiful singing voice, it’s just Green has the most beautiful singing when it comes to gentle and soft songs(like Zelda’s Lullaby) The other colors got the other parts of Four’s singing voice aka they sing the other parts of Four’s singing very well(I will answer which parts of it another time). Random side note but Shadow really good at singing too to the point he and Four can do a duet with each other(He and Vio already did one together once, but only that one time back when Vio had pretended to be working for the villains)

Zeffa is very important to Four and not just because I see Zeffa as Four’s loftwing. Zeffa and Four are partners the same way as Sky and Crimson are. Not only that but Zeffa actually loves to listen to Four’s singing voice, especially when Zeffa flying Four around. Also Zeffa is very fond of Green, Red, Blue, and Vio(the four are in a way Four after all)

Remember that Ocarina of Time manga where Time had befriended a certain boss dragon monster but had to kill his that dragon when he got older aka Volvagia. Well technically in the child timeline that dragon, never became evil cause of Ganon right? So technically that means that dragon alive but never was under ganondorf’s influence. That just means the dragon living off peacefully somewhere with a happy dragon family(possibly still visit Time somehow). Hmmm, should we still call that dragon “Volvagia” or should we call the fellow something else. Hmmm “Volga” maybe?(totally not tempted to make this dragon the same one from Hyrule Warriors for some random yet potentially angst inducing reason 😶💧, ha ha ha where would you ever get that idea 😅 he he he). Side note the little dragon has heard Time sing before, both in the adult and child timeline.

Four became a sword spirit after LU(No I will not elaborate how exactly. Let’s just say “Palace of the Four Sword”). That random and potentially angst idea aside, Four can still see the Minish as he is interacted with them long enough to still be able to see them possibly all the way till he is very old and grey.

The Chain do reunite once more after their adventure together. How? That part is up for debate. Very up to debate.

Also I really like the headcanon that the Hero of Men(one that Four looked up to a lot just as much as he did with the hero of skies) was actually a minish. A forest minish to be exact

————————————————————————

And that’s all I can think of for now. Still might add more later, who knows. 😅

thank you for making this list!

I honestly feel like I can’t think you enough. I know it won’t be too exact when it comes to requesting but either way I’m really grateful and glad to have been given this. So thank you so much ^^!

Hi again, @twistedstoryteller!

Okay, LU recs off the top-ish of my head in a sort of organized-ish order:

AUTHORS!

Angst, Action, and Mixed:

Faerule and the No Good Very Bad Road Trip by ImperialKatwala, PolynomialPandemic is a great "Chain Meets Hyrule" fic.

@gintrinsic-writing is phenomenal. A gem. I love all of it, but check the tags to find ones you're comfortable with. AO3 Blood Like Yours is my personal favorite, and the sequel Like Fire in Your Veins by @pocketramblr are both about Hyrule's Blood Curse from Adventures of Link. M for Violence for most of them, but check tags to be sure. If you like it, consider also...

Protector of the Golden Power by Sillus Hyrule centric but he has a different secret.

@somer-writes has a lot of great short one shots, some darker than others. My personal favorite is a sort of character study of the boys at their lowest and how they recover called "Depletion"

For a Sliver of Sunlight by tirsynni: Warrior's dedication to his brothers makes him question his title as Hero.

What are You to a God Slayer by Secretlysheikah BAMF Sky

Brethren in a Cradle by Skyward_Arpeggio BABY!!!! It is adorable, if a bit sad at the start.

Always Darkest Before the Dawn (Linked Universe Whumptober 2023) by Skyward_Arpeggio because in general they don't go above T ratings and write excellent fics.

this year it taught me (lost and ambitious) by qar Also EXCELLENT writer. "Sky has a separate moment with each member of the team"

Whumptober 2023 by Arecaceae Great fics! Plus, "Each story will have warnings in the tags and the story notes as well as a 0-5 whump rating. The ratings will be relative to my writing, so my 5 might not be equivalent to someone else's 5. I don't write MCD, extreme gore, non-con, or extreme emotional angst."

Major's Whumptober 2023 by major_de_speed Major's are also quite clean despite the M rating which is more about the violence.

Linkeduniverse Shorts by Skyward_Arpeggio LU Short fics

A Royal Castletown Wedding by Skyward_Arpeggio This story is so good!!!!!!!!!

Whumptober 2022 by Arecaceae more great fics, rated T.

LU Whump Dump by UnexpectedStormy (ArtemiStorm) need AO3 account to read, but worth it! Linked Universe Whumpy One-Shots, rated T.

There's one I'm missing, and when I find it I'll add it here. It involves a cursed magical artifact that Legend messes with... it's intense.

Fluffier Fics:

Frosty Reception by Skyward_Arpeggio "Four’s glad to finally be home again, and he’s not the only one happy at his return." Cute fic!

S’more Stories by Ginger375 "A collection of drabbles and mini-fics for LUtober! Day 31: Costumes"

Sentiment by Arecaceae

nine heroes, one spirit by Imjustherefortheangst, uncleskyrule (unclemoriarty) tons of great short fics, all with G-T ratings

Finding Family by Tashacee "AU where Wild's scars are a lot worse and he isn't used to interacting with people. The Chain think their new brother is dope af and are determined to make him feel at home."

My Heart's Forsaken Me by sister_dear "Four looses his sword in the heat of battle, and it's picked up by someone else... Time’s aren’t the only secrets coming to light, and the gang discovers they still have a thing or two to learn from each other."

Ambush at the Bridge by JinxedRuby Very action and healing oriented fic, multiple perspectives on one event.

Dark Clouds on the Horizon by CubanCracker62 "he Chain ends up in Wild's era shortly before the events of TotK."

There are worse ways to stay alive by EliotRosewater one shots rated T.

Crack Fics:

Misplaced Heroes by notOK this had me busting out laughing SO MANY TIMES!

Peak Gremlin Energy by defenestration_nation "Fics focusing on various Links being chaotic gremlins"

Not Necessarily LU, but Adjacent or just LoZ:

Blood of the Hero by Skye_the_Lofty_Nutcase: (Wild) Link's parents have to step in to save him when the Shrine of Resurrection gets damaged. His parents are so well written, and Abel makes appearances in LU-related/adjacent fics, The Many Misadventures of Dad Squad and Dad Squad AU by Nancyheart, Silver_Captain82403, Skye_the_Lofty_Nutcase

which is part crack and part angst, mostly lighthearted.

Don't Worry Man, I'm from the Yiga Clan: Link makes a Yiga friend due to being a delightful chaos gremlin.

Feature MCD... but might be worth it:

And Still the Cradle Blooms by Solistrix: GORGEOUS literary masterpiece. The writing is unreal. It's descriptions and emotions are incredible. This is more like finding the meaning in eventual death, so of the three here I suspect you'll like this one best as far as not being too hurt by the character's mentioned end.

This is an Adjuration: I'll be real, this is full of action and excitement but yes, it has MCD and is making me cry, but it's also REEEEAAALLY good!

Blood Drops on Roses by HotCheetohatred Fantastic storytelling! Wild centric, Twi is big brother but from day one of Wild's journey. Unreliable young Wild as narrator is an absolute delight. Unfinished, no MCD yet, but it's in the tags so no promises.

Modern AUs for not-big-on-modern-au fans:

As a fellow not-seeker of modern AUs, I personally have enjoyed the following

@skyward-floored Incredibles AU

Wild’s Wolf by HotCheetoHatred "Modern AU where young Wild is a feral forest child, raised by Wolf Twilight. He is captured, separated from Twilight, and put under observation. Time helps him escape." Unfinished, and I admit personal bias here because HotCheetoHatred is my BETA reader.

ARTISTS!!!

@ovegakart: amazing action, gut-busting humor, and captivating storytelling! Does comics

@la-sera: beautiful, ethereal, and gorgeous illustrations and a great storyteller, loves downfall duo but does every one of the boys justice

@dfanart: HILARIOUS and such heartfelt emotions on them boys.

@kikker-oma great art from fluff to whump to action

@1caru has so many fluffy LU gems!

@linderosse has a Zelda's meet AU, does LU, and much more!

@lele5429 great illustrations and abstract pieces of LU fanart.

@theecholegend hahaha... arson.

@ikaishere has so many cute LU ones.

@thepinklink fabulous LU character sketches

@hiimgin BIAS! I got to work with them and they are FABULOUS!

@pluviatrix has art for their fic And Still the Cradle Blooms

AND MANY, MANY MORE!

Hope this helps you feel welcome!

I’ll be very grateful for that so thank you ^^. I really do hope I get to see more of it by the end.

That and see what kind of other content relating to fandom I can find myself, is out there too!

What are your genre, tone, and topic preferences in fics? Which Link or relationships between Links do you like? Favorite ships for the Links and their partners? Preferences on the angst-to-fluff scale? Epics Tales vs One-Shots? AUs? Character driven vs plot-driven?

I can make better recommendations from there. Or I can just drop a list tomorrow (Ive been meaning to make one anyway).

First of all, oh my god that was fast and wow. I actually never genuinely thought too much on those kind of questions. Though I guess if I can sum it up

it’s kinda free lance, so nothing too specific I honestly have no preference between the epic stories and one shots. That and seeing the character and plot one could both technically quite the forte for me. I do prefer to at least see a happy ish ending for them(No unhappy endings, I avoid those. Plus no explicit ones either please. I very much definitely avoid those). Relationship between the Links, I enjoy them all. I do especially enjoy the brother bonds between them all, I’m quite chill(I’ve been getting to know what’s in the fandom as best I can ever since I jumped into this rabbit hole :]). I love to give them a hug if possible too, AUs seem cool cool, however I like to see them mostly focus on the time era of well the Chain are in aka no modern AUs in the list this time(Hey I don’t hate them, I mean I got one already forming at the back of my head at the moment, it’s just not what I’m looking for right now, though I don’t mind a separate list for that later), maybe Minish Four or Legend and Fable being siblings. Favorite ships plus the angst and fluff scale, on the other hand

Where do I even begin! Oh man, for starters and the easiest I can get out of the way. Ships, ahem. Time x Malon, that is obviously. Sky x Sun and Legend x Marin is there too(of course I can chill with Legend x Ravio but I prefer Legend x Marin). I really like Wild x Mipha a lot. Warriors x Artemis too(doesn’t have to be a requirement), Hyrule x Zelda(been bouncing between Aurora and Dawn cause well, different interpretations of them) as well(also not a requirement). But the ones I definitely want to say is not only Wind x Tetra but also Four x Dot!(I’m still sad there isn’t too much content around that :{) I love these two ships very much, especially with me thinking how wholesome these ships can be(well Four and Dot can, Wind and Tetra might be more, behind well. Pirates 🏴‍☠️ and how they are in general. They are more of an action couple. Wholesome can still squeeze in there just not as much as I can imagine for Four X Dot). I believe the next one is the scale of angst and fluff and I got to say I love everything in that scale. From the fluffiest of fluff with happy hugs and cuddling, to the deepest of deep angst where they are all suffering and crying. I love it, Hurt and Comfort that has both. Is even better cause it can have both the fluffiest of fluff and the angsty of angst. There’s literally so much you can do there. Like

a certain palace of the four sword that can be between Four and Legend for example! Gosh there literally so much I want to see and more. I really hope this isn’t too hard on you

🥺

However I’ll be really grateful regardless

🥹

Prologue

▷ Loading Text Files..

It was raining again, it was always raining those past few days. Not that he would've minded much, the rain was not coming down in the shape of an horrendous storm which will tear his focus away from his notes. No, it came out softly, like a trickle of Pebbles down a peaceful lake, soft circles shaking in the water as the heaviness drowned. It was.. calming one per say, and he suppose he have earned himself a short break, his back aching in approval when he tried to roll his shoulders.

He Choked back a sigh, raising from his seat and moving a strand of short hair from his eye view when he approaced closer to the window. His hands raised from the side of his body and laid flatly on the wet window, which had droplets all across the glass, while on his side of it, it was fresh, yet dry. His hand was flat across the window, and the chillness of it sent a shiver or two across his back, a shiver against the Coldness of the glass, against the touch of the merciless winter against his pale palm.

"The Winter Will Be Your Greatest Ally In Here"

Is it really? His head lowered slowly against the glass, forehead tilted until it is pressed against the Coldness, and he shivered again. The winter. The winter is no longer his ally, for he feels it the same as everyone else do.

"Who are you," he whispered in silence to the figure he have saw in his reflection, to the boy he have asked himself again and again the identity of. Ahh his head hurts thinking about it right of now, he better get back to his notes.

───────────────────

The cameras, he never thought there'd be a day, when he hoped for a break of them, for a moment of silence without the flashing sounds and the bright lights that covered his eyes to as far as he can possibly see. He knew there was no one to blame, as there were truly nothing quite wrong, save his mood perhaps. The Cameraman seemed to have noticed his sudden drop in motivation, because he have stopped the set and requested a few minutes of a break, which truly, he could use right now.

Letting his legs lead him out of the set, he ignored the scripter who thought he perhaps forgot his lines, which never happened in his entire career before, and he have been on a stage as long as he can remember his little hands Holding the paper in front of his mirror, incantating his lines carefully. He made his way out of the building, deciding to settle for a breather of fresh air, who might cool his mind and make him able to focus.

Standing carefully at the door, he felt the breeze dancing in the air, howling in laughter in a language foreign to those of the living, playing with his hair, and repaying that little toying, by spreading a cool gust on his face. He took a deep breath, feeling the chilly air so cleanly rolling down his lungs, then coming back out in his exhale, and he reached for the mirror In his pocket, to check how much of foolishness did the breeze make of his hair. Did he mind it much? Not quite, he wouldn't have come outside if he did. He saw a shadow in the mirror, and the howling sound of the wind.

"Listen To The Breeze, if you are careful enough, you might catch a glimpse of its words"

He Stilled in silence, ears careful and watchful, trying to distinguish any sort of sensibility in those unstable sounds, trying to figure out something he wasn't certain himself why were he gifting so much of his precious time to, but he listened. Intently and carefully, yet all his ears could pick up or detect, was the sound of the wind, like a turbulent. He choked back a sigh, not quite sure what were he looking for, aiming for, what was he expecting?

Did he expect the wind to whisper secrets of success into his ears? He doubt it would be so kind to do this, even if he were to understand it. Eye moved back into his mirror, the shadow no longer there, as if he were alone in the area from moment one. Shaking his head a tad and making a mental note to rest once he returns to school grounds, he went back inside the building, a rare tired sigh at his lips.

───────────────────

It was pretty late. He couldn't remember exactly the hour, but it was late. The Water Hitting against his window bothered his sleep, and he couldn't quite close his eyes with this tapping sounds of this persistent rain. He have found himself in the unfortunate situation of being unable to sleep, when tomorrow is a busy day. How Unfortunate does one can get? Well, perhaps he could compete for a leading place in a competition of self-pitying, but right of now he couldn't bring himself to care much. Not at this hour, not with mind tired as his.

He kicked off the blanket, feeling no reason to stay inside when he feels suddenly wide awake by the sounds, opting for a little walk around the halls of the dorm, just so he can tire himself out a tad little more, enough to go to sleep. He fidgeted around in the dark for a bit, and then as he managed to put both legs in his slippers, he raised from the mattress in silence.

Making his way in the halls, he opted to stop in the kitchen, grab a cup of water for his throat, so sore from Raising it all day long with careless Students who could ruin work of years in seconds, just because they felt like doing so. It bugged him a lot, but he swallowed it down and said nothing in their presence regarding that. A sudden sound rippled through the air, and got him to snap his head to look away at the window, his back slouching at the yellowness that brightened up the black sky, following the Thunder that rambled all around the place, a black figure was momentarily visible in the dark and he shivered at the thought, if he were real.

"The Thunder Is Not Scary, if you look at it straight forward in its face. it cannot harm you in any possible way, even if it wants to."

He watched the yellow die out, melt back into the inky black sky, and after he had made sure the figure is not truly there, he dismissed it as a mere trick his exhausted mind playing a cruel joke on him, and entered the kitchen carefully, not turning on the lights to save electricity. He drank one cup of cold water, then he filled in another one, planning to take it to his room so he will not have to raise from his bed again for the kitchen. He trotted carefully, not to spill the water, eyes fixated on his way back.

So immersed he was in that simple task, that he didn't notice the Brightness of lightning again, and the rumblings of thunder that caught him by absolute surprise, and his body jerked upwards, the cup spilling water everywhere, but his mind was already taken by another thing. Could it be? He said nothing, and ran as fast as his shaking legs carried him, slamming the door behind his back and curling into the blanket. He burried his head deep into safe space the pillow have provided him. There is no way one can not fear the thunder, it's loud, and scary.

───────────────────

It was a late hour, he could tell that from the blanket of starry skies he could glimpse at from the edge of his eye, through the old trees that tried to cover it up. He didn't want to be here.. but he promised, and he need to be a good person for once in his ridiculous life, and keep his word to the one person who never gave up on him. But camping?? It is an outside activity just the extroverted liked to do.

The air was cold, and there was a cold breeze that sent a shiver down his spine. He Stuffed himself better inside his coat, ducking his head in the soft inner layers of fur, blessing in his mind the one who planned the fabric this way. The bonfire was cackling softly, sticks with sausages and marshmallows stuck on the tops, were sticking in a low circle from the grassy sand, merely inches away from the flame. It was cold, and without thinking, his hand reached out a tad to the fire's direction, trying to soak in its warmth in his bones.

"The Fire's Your Family, And family don't betray"

Family? He Ignored the shadow he noticed in the sand, giving it as a twisted reflection of a tree or a branch, something not to fear. Something it will be silly to fear. He reached closer with his palms, closer and closer to the ball of warmth, until suddenly he hissed in pain and retracted his hands back to him.

Fire, his family? Ridiculous. He examined the black spot on his fingers, it seemed sore, maybe it will get calloused later, it hurt. It hurt. And the fire is not his family, because it hurt him. And he do not know if that thought, or the wind in the alley, sent a long shiver down his spine.

───────────────────

Spices, Spices and bowls, as far as the eye can see. That was what he was doing every late night, spices and salts, cooking. He didn't find comfort in cooking, just like he didn't in ironing or doing dishes, or any sort of domestic stuff, but he had to do it regardless of desire. Looking down at the sticky dough that held high to his hands, the dough he needs to now braid into some bread, maybe some sweets for tomorrow.

He sighed a tad, opting for a single moment of break from kneading the dough over and over to soften it up, and to check on the other things he have currently put in the oven. His hand reached up, sugary and sticky, to his forehead, and he wiped some stray sweats from there using the back of the wrist, before he washed his hand carefully and picked up a towel.

Ahh, he can't see a single thing in this darkness, foolish decision it was, to put all the lights out when the others went to bed. He Stifled a groan at the back of his throat and lighted a candle, holding it carefully at the base and opening the oven's door, prodding at the top of the sweet that laid there with careful fingers. It wasn't ready enough, so he shut the door and wiped his hands free of sweat. The Towel tickled his fingers, but he didn't look, his gaze focused on the shadows dancing on the wall, using the fire from the candle as their stagelight for the act.

"Let the light comfort your agony"

He stilled at the view of one of the shadows, something akin to a human shaped one based on the Height, as if staring his way and reaching its hand out to him. He blinked, and it was gone. As if never there. Maybe truly, it was never there. Light? Comfort him? Ahh the ridicule.. he put the flame out with the tip of his fingers, not reacting when the flame momentarily ate at his flesh, or at the darkness that engulfed the room soon after. He doesn't need the light. Not when he grew up in the lap of darkness.

───────────────────

What time was it? He weren't certain. It was a little hard to guess the time at a place where even as the sun rises, it still seem like evening at best. So high were the trees of the forest, so thick and vast, holding the light of the harsh sun within their hold. So hard, he was not certain on trusting his biological clock at times.

The moon shined across the trees, its light gracefully dancing through the heavy branches of the woods, that the sun's forceful rays did not manage to pierce. The soft light fell on his face and he raised his head to stare at the lunar star, squinting his eyes at it, as if trying to dictate what the hour was according to its radiation. It was hard, but he remembered he used to get lessons for that, so he should know it.

Staring at the sky, a yawn suddenly escaped his lips before he could stifle it, long and quick, and hazy. His body was tired. Which was making sense, considering his previous actions of the last three or so hours. His grip on the handle which he held so tightly before, loosened a tad, and right now he hoped that his partner for said activity will hurry in coming back with the wood for the bonfire, because he will fall asleep shortly, and it might be impolite to do so without informing the other of it.

His legs feel so shaky suddenly, maybe, maybe he can settle down, and wait for said person, sitting? It is not like he is going to Immediately sleep as soon as his body lay down, no, he is a strong person, he can wait and handle his sleepiness for a couple more minutes.

The Grass was soft under his hands when he took his gloves off, and he laid his weapon down, next to him, so it will not damage. The grass was soft, yet prickly, and the trunk of the tree was wide, and warm somehow. He raised his head to look at the sky again, and the circle of the moon as if shined in respose to him. Though now that he think of it, he likely doesn't, and he just too tired to realize it.

"Let the moon watch over when you sleep, it only wish to keep you well protected."

He yawned again, this time his yawn coming out big, instinctively closing his eyes. When he did open his eyes back, the wave of tiredness washed over him in absolute full force. Would it truly be this bad to nap for a few minutes? It isn't like this is unnatural behavior for one to grow tired after such tedious activities..

His eyes closed again before he knew it, his shoulders, once rigid and stiff, now eased, smoothed out, relaxed onto the trunk, as if it was a comfortable pillow. His body laid there limply, asleep, and the voices of bird chirping in the background was heard just barely, along with the dark shadow in the forest wood, that seemed to have disappeared, slipping in silence into the dark of night.

───────────────────

The water is clear, it's bubbling and fresh, it's something he used to. It's comforting, to have something you used to, places, activities, friends even. It give a sense of stability, which was something he heard he terribly lacks. Is he really believing that? Well, Not really, he just think he has a different thought process than others, but eh, everyone have their own opinion, and they don't worth his time to think about what their opinion of him might be.

His hands opened widely, moving through the water currents skillfully, like a weaver through the fabrics and strands he is to create life from. Ehe, he liked the water, and he spent every possible moment near it, or better, in it. Sadly it seemed, his close ones did not like that a lot. His Eyes scanned the land underneath him, not quite bothered by the saltiness the depth carried. He loved going out to the sea once a while, and his dorm was not far from one, so it truly was a nice refreshment, Metaphorically and literally. He liked the waves, the smell, the familiarity. But most, he liked the treasures the waters held for him, be it items, or special fish.

People asked him his opinion of the land before, he didn't really have what to say. The land was nice, but the day underneath such heavy rays, was nearly unbearable. And then people would ask why he spend so long near waters. His Lids narrowed, head ducking forward to see better, he can be certain he saw a shadow somewhere in the clear water, behind the stones. Can it be one of his dormmates? Nah.. they said there were too busy to come along before, why change their mind now? Then.. what is it?

He wanted to check, and his hands already settled in a position to give him a boost of movement, but he barely blinked, and it was gone. What was that? Did it want to play hide and seek-? Ohh he can play hide and seek! Raising his head a tad out of the water, he squinted his eyes against the bright light, that seemed to as if agree on blinding him, ruining his good mood in seconds.

"The Sun is mightful, do not get on its bad side."

Bleh, as If he cared. The sun can be mightful all it want, but as long it cannot reach him, he has no reason to care for it, nor for the consequences of the middle finger he have raised from the water, dripping and running down his hand back into the waves. His finger stood sharp in front of the sun, as if trying to piss it off Intentionally, and then he heard it. A far ring, somewhere on the shore. Great.. now he has to go back early too? What a waste of a day! He Sighed Audibly, Beginning to swim out back to the shore, leaving behind the peace of mind he have gotten in his minutes here.

───────────────────

The library was quiet. After all, why shouldn't it be so, so late at night? He can briefly remember mentioning his need for a certain book to dispell the worry that might rise of his sudden disappearance, then he fled the dorm, arriving at the library a tad after midnight, in search of a book, and in finding of a longed for silence.

The paper crumpled from the pressure of his palm, candles flickering and reflecting in his eyes in a sparkly shine, the pupils examining the papers and pages in silence. Utter silence. Eerie. The book was of no true importance to be exact, but he needed the silence. The silence only the night provided him with, the night, with its dark wings, engulfing the land.

He weren't afraid of the darkness of the library, nor were he unnerved by the idea of someone else possibly crossing by. The library was not the place many have ventured to for anything but school materials, even that, in the day. He were used to it. The Loneliness. Used to be submerging himself in books, in knowledge, in anything he can seek. He were used to it.

"The Darkness Will Hide Your Deepest Fears"

The flame twitched momentarily, a shadow casting over the wall behind him, standing tall, yet it was gone as soon as it appeared, and it did not seem to catch his attention enough for him to shift his head from the book. His fears..

Loneliness. He feared the quiet, the alone. He feared the day where he will have no one to turn to for advice, or for company. The day, all up on his might, he will feel as Helpless as a newborn. But, he snapped the book, he is currently not alone, he has those to turn to, he has those who seeks his company. Those who currently worry over his sudden necessity to see a not very importanf book. The darkness might be willing to hide his fears, but he was not willing to succumb to them. Raising his posture with more confidence, he left the creaky floor and the flickering flame behind, returning to the loudness he seeked freedom from.

───────────────────

A flicker of orange to their left caught their attention, and the eye flickered momentarily on the figure splayed out on the grassy land, hands croosed behind his head and legs bended over, soles of the shoes still touching the ground. It genuinely seemed like he was asleep, and the symbol on his cheek raised and Lowered with each raise and heave of his chest. They admit, they might've dragged him along against his will, but can he really say no? Nahh.. he can't.

The Sky. It's black. It's dark. And it's pretty. Lightened up by so many little sparkly pieces of cosmos, like salt spread all over a table. Hmm.. maybe they did spend a little too long with Trey lately in the kitchens, that they think up such metaphors for a thing as simply as a collection of stars, in the language of the kitchen.

The News earlier today spread like wildfire, there is going to a meteor shower somewhere around midnight, and they convinced the ginger to come along, who admittedly, obliged to it a tad too eagerly for their taste, but they guess they can't be picky. Head Raised back to the sky, feeling.. not tired, but more.. unnerved.

The sky was pretty, and the meteors were shining brightly, but for some reason ever since this morning.. they felt on edge. School matters? Not really.. shenanigans of students again? Yes, but not what nerved them. More like.. haziness of mind. They couldn't focus, and they wanted to drag a friend for some fresh air.

"The Stars Know Everything"

Is that so? Do they really know truly everything there is to know? .. why does this thought alone, make them feel at unease? Like.. there is no privacy, there is no away from the stars, even when the sun rises and they are no longer visible. Maybe.. that's why they were always more of a morning person than a night one, wanting to get an away from the Watchful glances of those who sparkle like a jewel.

Eye Moved again to look at the ginger haired, whose posture did not move or flinch even slightly at the caress of the hand against the cheek, which told them the teenager was indeed caught in a fast slumber. If the stars know everything.. maybe they can tell.. why do they feel so.. nostalgic every time they look at the Teenager? Like it remind them of something they are not certain of?

Ahh.. The Sevens Sure does like to test their patience does they not? Hand reached to give a soft Caress to their forehead, feeling the pulses of pain that kept coming each time they have brought up this thought this day.. then, they turned their head up to the sky, hand idly beginning to fondle the hair of the sleeping person next to them, eyes fixated on the stars, as if asking them a question which is yet to receive its proper answer.

It just got worse…………

some spoilers for the event “Stage in playful land” below……

>There’s a camera turning on. It shows Ortho holding it, kinda, he looks he’s trying to remind calm. It also shows where he is currently

Okay. I managed to regroup with of the others. I found Basil too, but about that bad feeling had…………

ITS EVEN WORSE THAN I EVER IMAGINED! At least as donkeys you can try to run away(despite being quadrupedal). But no, Fellow Honest and Gidel were planning to turn EVERYONE they lured here into puppets with some kind of curse made by them!

So what if I only found the others because we were all dragged to the stage to do a song number by the fox and cat beastmen

Yeah, like that totally make up for what they were planning in the first place……

Or the fact that playful land had since departed from Sage island and far away enough that no one can hear anyone screaming in pure terror……

NO! It still doesn’t excuse those two to turn to literally turn everyone here into puppets!………at least we got away. Sorta

We got away. Found out that we are now far enough from Sage Island that I’m pretty sure a lot of us are wondering how we’ll be even rescued in the first place. And as if that wasn’t horrible enough

I find out that Lilia Vanrouge-San, Jade Leech-San, and Grim as well as Yuu-san were affected by a puppet curse that not only made them grew some kind of weird wood mask. But then they could no longer move. Like a puppet’s actual body.

Yeah, not okay at all!………It didn’t help that we had to leave them behind because apparently Fellow Honset and Gidel found us. And we only managed to get away with Yuu-san out of all of them. Which leads to now. I’m pretty sure we’re all hiding at the moment

…………Why didn’t I listen to nii-san, why did I ever think we would be fine…………why didn’t I listen to the part of me that’s Mari……………The part of me that thought this is clearly a bad idea…………I’m a horrible older sister for letting this happen………

>………

>he looks he’s trying so hard not to cry…………he even had to put down the camera too to try and calm down

>…………

>The camera is soon picked up again. But the camera doesn’t turn to who is now holding it

Mari………it’s not your fault………

>he looks up at the camera. Talking to the one recording this

Huh? B-Basil?

>………

>the voice behind the camera goes quiet and makes the camera slightly shake. But the voice powers though

M-Mari, I know things are looking very bad right now. We lost Grim, Lilia, and Jade back there. We’re stuck in this park with no communication from the outside, and if we aren’t careful we can be turned into puppets next. But it’s not your fault

But I……

NO!

Sorry, Look if I said what happened was your fault. Wouldn’t that technically mean it’s the others that wanted to come here in the first place to blame than

>Ortho shakes his head “no” a lot upon hearing that

What, no! Sure they wanted to come here despite it being a bad idea. But they didn’t know that this was all going to happen, they just wanted to have fun at an amusement park, shady sure. But they had good intentions regardless

>“Basil” who was holding the camera was quiet. However from Ortho’s expression. It looked as if the other was smiling

There’s your answer Mari. It was no one’s fault this happened. Sure it would have been better had you guys listen about this place being a bad idea in the first place. But at the end of the day, it was supposed to be fun. That’s why I and the others came with you all in the first place, I may have not said it aloud in front of everyone else. But I did came cause well……I was worried about you too Mari, and I knew Sunny would be worried too had he not told me about, well, “Playful Land” in general.

Basil……I

>he takes a deep breath and calms down Thank you Basil. I think I really needed to hear that. Truly

>the voice lets out a small chuckle

It’s no problem and-, Oh before I forget. You dropped this earlier

>though the camera couldn’t see the hand that was holding the object clear enough(being more out of view and all). Ortho’s own expression looked surprised seeing it, plus the object was also……

My picnic basket! You actually found it!

>he says this as he takes the basket carefully into his hands before carefully adjusting it so he can hold it with his right arm in order to use both hands in case. AHEM certain reasons

How did you find it? I thought I dropped it when………

That was actually thanks to a certain someone’s fast thinking. He caught the basket and actually ran with it while making sure he didn’t drop it while he follow everyone else from behind. It was only in the clear that he gave it to me. I think he must have know that you might grow worry about it

Yeah, I guess. Even so I still want to thank you and this “certain someone” for getting this basket back. I actually thought I lost it forever too

But I also want to thank you yourself as well Basil

Huh? What for?

Cheering me up, I actually truly needed to hear those words from before. I don’t think I would have grounded myself that easily if it weren’t for you

>Basil’s voice grew quiet. He seemed stunned almost, but eventually

Yeah, of course. Your my friend Mari, and I……I’m glad I was able to help you more properly in this lifetime

Basil……

>he looked he wanted to say something else but simply shook his head

Well. I guess we better regroup with the others. I don’t think I should make them worry about me like this. Yeah. That’s true, come on Mar……no, Ortho. Let’s head back together

Right! Let’s

>Ortho says with a smile as he soon gently takes a hold of the camera allowing “Basil” to let go of it

By the way, I should cheer up more too. I wouldn’t want to let Hero start fussing over me too much, hehe, but I wouldn’t mind if he were to try cheering me up more by hugging me especially with his-

M-Mari! P-Please, Y-You know that kind of stuff flusters me. But I guess if your alright joking like this, I guess your cheering up faster than I thought

Yeah. True, and we’ll all get out of this place together. All of us. Plus I know Sunny will definitely want you back soon. I think he misses staring at your gorgeous face too. Hehe, I bet he’ll want to cuddle with you when we get back too

>Ortho soon manages to put the camera back into the basket too with all the other snacks and treats in it. All while somehow avoiding “Basil”’s appearance as “Basil”’s flustered voice spoke up again

M-MARI! C-Come on…S-Sunny and I, well uhhh, I-I know have an attractive face in this lifetime but you don’t have to say it like that! I-It’s embarrassing, really embarrassing too. And that’s coming from me whose also-

>the camera soon turns off here

So about the playful land event………and whenever or not it might change something in my Twst/Omori Reincarnation AU

uhhhh, well. About that………

You know. Actually being here isn’t as worrying I thought it originally was(even after nii-san said it was a bad idea. Plus Fellow Honest-san and Gidel-san being “sus” as living hell). Everyone’s having fun at playful land and Fellow Honset-san and Gidel-san are actually nice people.

They were definitely right that we were all going to have fun here. Myself included. Goodness, going to this place really makes me nostalgic of my time as Mari! I know both Hero and I prefer to let Sunny, Kel, Aubrey, and Basil pick which rides or games we can do that time when we went to the amusement park. But I don’t mind picking out something to enjoy myself this time around. I wonder if Basil himself is getting nostalgic to seeing this place too, wonder if he found a ride he really likes. Oh not only that but the way my gear looks really reminds me of another park from that movie Hero and I watched with the others back then. A place that was called “Pleasure Island” and I remembered the movie itself was quite a sweet and wholesome too despite the disturbing parts. Like how one of the disturbing part of that movie was that Pleasure Island was secretly turning all the young boys that went there into donkeys and-

Were sold off to salt mines…………Wait……Donkeys…………And the fact that Honset fellow-san and Gidel-san reminded of that fox and cat from said movie too………………………… Ace Trappola-san also did had that strange wood like mask on his face too…………Oh no, this place is going to do something similar isn’t it………………OH GREAT SEVEN NO! I need to find the others. Especially Yuu-san, AND BASIL! I HAVE TO GO NOW!

>Ortho[MARI] immediately takes off in a blind panic in trying to find the others immediately. Especially when he is heard immediately yelling for Basil

BASIL!!!
