Reading This And Then Reading The Comments And Reblogs Feels Like People Are Deliberately Missing The

Shouta couldn’t help himself, he blinked. And in that one, crucial moment, a demon tore its way into the world.

The being appeared from a tornado of brilliant blue fire, so bright it hurt Shouta’s eyes, roaring a deep, inhuman roar. Claws ripped through the flames, glinting in the firelight as bladed heels dug into the concrete. It had no face, just a mass of fire in the vague shape of eyes and a mouth on a smooth mask under a top hat. Inky black wings flared out from behind the creature, covering the moon and stars in complete darkness.

“YOU DARE HARM MY TRICKSTER?” The entity roared, towering over Shouta like a predator would its prey. Pure dark energy flowed from the thing’s claws, sucking the warmth from the air in an instant. Shouta felt an unnatural fear pierce his being, the kind that made him want to cower and hide and never come out. “BEGONE WITH YOU!”

First official art for A Transfer of Power, A Will of Rebellion! Scene taken from chapter 7, The First Infiltration

I didn't originally want to share stuff from this fic here on Tumblr, after all, this was more a Legend of Zelda/LU account. But then I started posting my Persona 3 Reload reactions and decided yeah, this is a 'whatever tf I want' account, Beyond The Mirror can be my Legend of Zelda account. So, here's what I've been working on lately! Art and writing for this one fanfiction. I'll figure out how to put images into ao3... Eventually. Maybe when I actually get some work done on the next chapter

Have the speedpaint!

I finally got around to making some stickers for my laptop! I don't have a sticker maker or anything I just did the whole sandwich between two layers of tape thing but I think it still looks good and I love it.

Here's what they look like printed out and stuck on my laptop... Ish. I'm not a photographer, so they look a bit more washed out than they do in real life. Only a bit, because printers b like that.

Obligatory y'all are more than free to print these out for your own stickers if you want, just don't like.. sell them or claim you drew them.

Ok I look at a lot of Link AUs, and a lot of people like to make all the different links have very different looks. So for me, because he's my favorite link in my favorite game, here's sky.

I love him so much I would kill for him you are not allowed to dislike Skyward sword in my presence when there is this amazing lil guy in it

So I'm playing through persona 3 reload for the first time y'know? Chilling, having a good time, and then Kirijo just up and pulls THIS LINE OUT

SHE SMIRKED, SHE FUCKING SMIRKED GIVEN THE THOUGHT OF BLOWING HER WAY INTO THE SCHOOL

SHE'S AN ICE USER WHAT THE FUCK

Anyway given this new information Mitsuru Kirijo is my new favorite character.

I'm a literal cat on his way to steal yo girl

Guess who's gonna go down the rabbit hole of coloring their copy of the Four Swords manga

Ikutsuki just brought us a literal child what the fuck. He's moving into our dorm what the FUCK THIS IS AN ELEMENTARY SCHOOL CHILD

Like I knew this was going to happen because I've been spoiled for like.. half the game maybe? But I DIDN'T EXPECT HIM TO JUST,, BRING A LITERAL CHILD TO SCHOOL AND SAY "oh yeah he exists now, this is all of y'all's problem I'm not going to be taking care of him"

Ikutsuki is supposed to be the adult man we're a bunch of high school child soldiers I've suspended my disbelief so far but Ken Amada is where I'm drawing the line

Ok but what if when you tried to summon Thanatos during the fight against the Nyx Avatar instead of appearing normally Thanatos would rip its way out of the Nyx Avatar Orpheus-style. And then even that didn't kill the Avatar, not even a piece of itself tearing its way back to Makoto could kill that thing. I think that would be a really powerful scene actually.

I'm starting to think it was never real in the first place, just a figment of my imagination lost to the recesses of my mind. On the upside, there are a lot of really freaking cool black mask Joker designs out there. Like, damn persona 5 artists did not have to go that hard but they did anyway and it's glorious.

I swear I am scouring the globe looking for that one freaking black mask redesign where they have him iridescent black pants and called atlus cowards but I can't find it anywhere it's so upsetting

Got these lads some better references! Not complete ones, but they're still pretty good.

Here are the 8 Links I'm planning on including! I have general characterization concepts for all the others, but they were being kinda annoying designs. I might include em as I continue to figure out this AU, but for now here's what I got!

Our very first hero! I don't really consider the SS prequel manga canon here so Sky's the very first holder of the Hero's spirit. He's a very kind soul, protective of those he cares for and holding the endless determination and courage of any hero.

After the end of Skyward Sword, Sky's taken up a bit of an 'ambassador to the surface' type role, educating those who've come down with while Zelda spends as much time as she can with her family on Skyloft. Though the scars from his fight with Demise still twinge, Sky's happy to move forward with his life on the surface.

Minish is our youngest member, but that doesn't mean you can underestimate him. Minish is quiet, playful, and endlessly curious. He's the best spy this chain has, able to shrink down to the size of a mouse and be completely invisible to everyone but fellow children.

After saving Zelda from being encased in stone and having her light force drained, Minish simply seeks to spend his time enjoying his childhood with his best friend and learning to forge a sword as good as the four sword.

Mask is our resident angst, his life has been far too hard. Mask is mysterious, closed off, and talented. With the body of a teenager and the mind of a young adult, this lad has plenty of tricks up his sleeve.

Resuming his travels after Termina, Mask finds himself looking for somewhere to belong. He's travelled to Labrynna, Holodrum, Koradai, and yet the only place he really felt any sense of family remains in that strange war with Tune and Captain. Perhaps, someday, he'll find his way back to them.

Tune's our resident navigator! He can read and create maps and starcharts like no other, plus he knows his way around a boat. Despite the more pirat-y aesthetic, Tune's really a sweetheart. Sure, he enjoys finding abandoned treasure and sailing, but he's hardly a ruthless bounty hunter or thief. He just loves meeting people, and wants to help anywhere he can. A trait practically required for the hero life.

After his adventures, Tune's living a life of travel on the Great Sea. He has his own boat, but broadly he sails with Tetra, the two finding buried treasures from Hyrule. He's always had that itch to go somewhere, to do something, and maybe he's about to get exactly what he wants.

Wolf's a bit of a mysterious edgy man himself, but this time it's all appearances. Our resident furry is just a big huggable rancher with a protective streak when it comes to his family. He's amazing with animals, and with the help of a certain amazing nose, he can track basically anything.

I'm diverging from canon a lot here. Midna's never shattered the mirror of twilight in this universe, she's just not around in the light world because it would hurt to be anything more than a shadow there. Instead, after their adventure Wolf and her hang out frequently. Wolf's pretty content with his lot in life, he's got his family, his home, and his best friend. Really, what more could he ask for?

Unabashed favorite character alert, Four's a bit of an asshole. Like, they're very heroic and frankly, often right, but they've still got an arrogance problem. They're fiercely loyal and incredibly smart, and will take the role as supposed leader because frankly, no one else wants the title.

After returning the Four Sword with Vaati and Ganon completely obliterated, Four's gone back to their life as a knight. There's still a fierce purple ache in their chest for a certain Shadow, but the teal confidence easily shoves that to the side in favor of being the perfect warrior. Now, Four's rising through the ranks of Hyrule's guard, ready for whatever challenge comes next.

Wild fits their name very well. They're quick to explore every mountain and valley, loot every chest, and find every korok. Incredibly different from the Link from before the Calamity, they share memories but not so much experiences. Wild is the best archer in the group, even without their champion ability.

I can't quite decide whether I want Wild to be pre or post TOTK, but it doesn't make too terribly much of a difference. After his adventure he continues to explore Hyrule and the lands beyond it. He's verrryyy close with his Zelda, and the two like to do a bit of mad science with Purah every so often. He's happy with his new lease in life, but if the chance comes to explore something new? Well, Wild's definitely going to take it.

Cap's here! And he's a bit of a mess. Traumatized from his fights with Cia and Dark Link, Captain has trouble being confident in himself at all anymore. He's always been naturally confident, but ever since that first battle with Dark, Captain's been suppressing that part of himself. He's a very skilled leader and tactician, with the most experience working with a large group.

After the war Captain.. didn't really know what to do with himself. His friends had left, and there was no longer anything to fight against. He decided to dedicate himself to being a guard, but he still felt a little empty. He's never really moved on from the events of the war, but maybe soon he'll return to some old friends.
