    Summary

    Rain starts to slowly fall on the skylight in Link’s house. It was the first rainfall after a long heatwave, much to the relief of both him and Ravio.
    The apples in his orchard would soon ripen, with the summer coming to a close.
    So why was this anxiety pulling at his stomach?

    ─────────

    A Legend-Centric fic where he is the last to join the Chain!

    Summary

    Four has already figured it out. He’s been looking around, and Legend can see that he’s noted the walls, and the carvings, and the fact that this whole place is overrun with monsters.

    “This isn’t exactly a palace, is it, Legend?” Four says, testing out the words. “It’s a tomb. My tomb.”

    ---------

    A fresh, bright hibiscus rests daintily behind one ear as she sways in place, humming a tune Legend knows in the depths of his soul. Her name chokes in Legend's throat. He can’t move; can barely think—

    “Marin?”

    Legend whips around— It wasn’t him who said that.

    It was Warriors.

    ---------

    In which a visit to the Palace of the Four Sword sets a series of conflicts and reveals in motion.

    Summary

    This started as a quick one shot I wrote to celebrate the new game. It has now turned into a collection of one shots.

    1 What if the Links met the Link from Echoes of Wisdom? What if they entered the rifts? (Spoilers)
    2 What if the Zeldas picked up Echoes of Wisdom Zelda and went to meet the Links at the Lumpy Pumpkin? (End-Game Spoilers)
    3 What if the Chain (with EoW Link and post-ToTK Wild) met EoW Zelda in one of her dungeons, and a certain mini-boss quickly caused chaos and confusion? (End-Game Spoilers)
    4 How do you ask a mute Link about himself while you're hopping from era to era, in between, and even... before Sky? Join the Links for a questionably-honest game of Never Have I Ever as they get to know their newest brother. (Spoilers)
    5 What if the dungeon that the Links explored was the same as the first dungeon of Echoes of Wisdom, and they met the new Link before the events of his game? (Early-game spoilers, spoilers for Central Room parts 2 and 3)
    6 What if Might and his family knew before his heroism ever started? (Early-game spoilers, preview for Might's role in my D&D fic. Mother's Day special.)

    Summary

    Legend’s doing drugs, Wild’s breaking out, Wind is being a menace to society, Twilight’s a runaway, Wars is trying to NOT get fired because for some reason he keeps having to abuse his job to keep his ‘brothers’ out of jail, Hyrule is trying to- actually nobody is really sure what he’s up to, Four is going to crash out because “Why is everybody’s car breaking down???”, Sky is on the verge of a mental breakdown, and Time? Well, let’s say Time is pretty busy dealing with all of the above.

    This is a Link’s Meet Linked Universe modern AU where Time ends up as a Father of eight. Little does he know the amount of trauma that comes with raising spirited boys, each coming with their own personal baggage, struggles, and personalities.

    Summary

    The whole reincarnation-thing is a cycle. That's kind of the definition of reincarnation. Still, some of the Links wish that the cycle wouldn't repeat itself quite this quickly. What do you MEAN Ganon can come back this many times in one lifetime? Surely he got the memo of one (1) Ganon for every one (1) hero? Surely it can't be right that ALL world-ending events have to happen during these nine guys' lives? Where's the justice in that? Yes, we're looking at you, Hylia

    The Chain has just finished their adventure during LU, when they're called back into action. Apparently, the gods aren't done with them yet. Only this time, Legend wound up getting kidnapped along with most of the Zeldas, while Fable has accidentally joined the Chain

    Summary

    So here’s the dealio.

    Once upon a time a group of time travelling weirdos gave 10 year olds Link and Zelda a shadow crystal thingy so that Shadow’s future Heroic Sacrifice™ might be a little less… sacrificial.

    And it was great! For like, more than a decade they all got to grow up together all alive and happy! But things fall apart as they do, and Link died, and some time loop scheme Shadow honestly wasn’t paying that much attention to (he tried, okay?) has been enacted.

    Now Shadow’s joined the time travelling weirdos, and one of them is a Link who’s years younger than his who never managed to save his Shadow.

    Things are messy. Things are stressy.

    But they have a time loop to close to save Shadow and maybe to save Link, and whatever.

    He’ll wing it.

    What could go wrong?

    Summary

    The Shadow uses a strange spell to switch the bodies of the Links with those of their respective Zeldas, assuming they must be easier to defeat. It is very wrong.

    Summary

    Summary

    No Prince could hold the Power of the Goddess. So what was a kingdom to do when Death looms, and a Prince is born instead?
    ......
    The Chain aren't sure what to make of this new Hyrule. For one thing, the sky is red. And there are a lot of ruins.
    ......
    Being pulled away from home without a chance to even get to know it sucks. So does having intense flashbacks to a life not yours, and being a pawn in a cosmic game of dick measuring? Wild could do without.
    -------

    Fic later leads to more adult themes, heavy physical and mental angst and anxiety. But eventually a happy ending. Reader discretion is highly advised.

    Summary

    Dogs were once wolves. Transformed over time by heavy Hylian hands, domestication blunted their fangs and soothed their wild nature. They became docile, and unwilling to speak out. Wild wasn't a dog, but that didn't mean the metaphor affected him any less. After a lifetime of servitude and silence, it was only natural that his sharp edges had been smoothed, his spirit dimmed.

    Eight other heroes won't change his life so quick, but they can certainly nudge him in the right direction.

    Or, another chain meets Wild fic, but Wild is much less 'wild'.

    Summary

    Inspired by ClayBrownie7566's story Feathered

    The Royal Family of Hyrule have wings, a trait carried through the blood of their line all the way down from Hylia herself. No one else is known to have this unique feature, so when Link, the Hero of Legend, grows wings when he's only six and still just a normal little boy from Kakariko, his Uncle knows they have to hide it.
    Legend grows up hiding his wings and fearing the day he's discovered for them, fortunately, or maybe unfortunately, he can only put that day off for so long and eventually he is discovered.
