Everybody Drawing Dapper As Just Minecraft-coded Ciel Phantomhive Are My Personal Heroes

Sky Backstory (bc actually what’s going on there)

I know most of the Link’s kind of have ambiguous families or are just straight up orphans but Sky’s origins are particularly mysterious to me. Like we intentionally know that Time is an orphan, his mother died getting him into the lost woods. Four has a father and grandfather, Wind has a grandmother and sister, Twilight has an adoptive family (I think?), Legend had/has an uncle, and Wild had a family. Wars doesn’t mystify me as much bc he’s working as a soldier, it can be assumed he grew up somewhere else, and Hyrule doesn’t have anyone in his game so he just very much has wandering orphan vibes (There’s weird non canon stuff from the 80s but I don’t count it).

Sky, however, is surrounded by people in their families. Like everyone else in the academy has a family member yet they don’t ever mention Sky’s. Like not even if they had died when he was young or anything, like Sun’s mom.

So, I created my own backstory to fill in the gaps as I play Skyward Sword.

I think the people of Skyloft found Sky as a really young child one day just sitting in front of the Goddess statue with a baby loftwing nestled into his side. This is confusing bc nobody has ever seen this child before and there’s no way he could have flown to the island at that age and on a loftwing of that size. So they send search parties looking for his parents but find nothing. The academy takes him in and the island kind of raises him.

I think Sun would bully him as really young kids, she’s very jealous of his close bond with his loftwing. Her father is kind of horrified that she’s bullying the orphaned mute kid so he forces her to be friends with him. She starts feeling really bad for how she treated him and pulls a 180 becoming his biggest defender and best friend. (I don’t think the bullying would be super serious just mean kid stuff)

She tries to teach him sign but he doesn’t seem to be picking it up so they just enjoy quiet company for a while. Randomly, like 4 years after his arrival he just starts talking. Probably something mundane to Sun like: “The sky is really pretty today…” and she’d be like: “Yeah it’s so pink-“ *neck crack* “whatdidyoujustsay”

And turns out he did pick up the sign she was teaching him he just… didn’t want to use it. Then people start asking him questions about how he got to the island but he genuinely can’t remember. He doesn’t even think he remembers his parents. He thinks he can recall a soft voice and strong arms but it might just be something he made up to soothe himself…

And yeah, I think it just remains a mystery.

I hope so bad that there’s more bbh centric fanfics in the future 😭

I know he doesn’t have a nonzero amount but UGH, I just need more, I’m greedy I know

like last stream he did??? That’s content gold right there. Please, like there could be so good whump fics out of that, hurt/comfort type stuff

Honestly, there’s so much good bbh content that I feel like that goes unnoticed on unused

I stg that I would write fics but I am never happy with my work 😭 words do not flow for me

if I made an ao3 thing of just fic ideas and headcanons would people like that??

Everything I maladaptive daydream is so self indulgent and project-y, idk if people even want to see that T~T

I always feel bad for want to see my favs in a whump or hurt/comfort but I think it’s just me wanting the part where they’re taken care of? I personally don’t enjoy fluff without any pain, no pain no gain y-know??

It’s deffo just older sibling projection, like he takes such good care of everyone, I just wanna see people take care of him 🥺 all I need is one good sickfic to tide me over for winter 💔

I would ask for fic recommendations but I think I’ve completely exhausted the bbh tag on ao3, tbh at this point I might go back to wattpad 😭 any recs there??

when I make these posts I feel like I’m stranded in the desert, pls I need to know if other people share my thoughts. Even if you don’t pls comment 🥺 I see likes come in and it makes me happy but I’m always like: “what exactly are they thinking tho???”

Dw I know that’s a lot to ask for I am needy

but like, I’ve gotten to the point where I will read fics where bbh is a good side character to get my fix 🥹

he’s just my favorite Minecraft guy and my brain is probably a little funny if you’re picking up what I’m putting down

just meowing out to the void

pls tho, touch base if you’re feeling thoughts

I’ve finally finished the outline for my hunger games cellbit bbh fic and it’s several pages long and almost 4k words 😭 this thing is gonna be a monster

pls I need some encouragement I’m shamelessly asking for some hype

I feel like I need a beta reader just for my outline

it’s basically 9 different parts and I know I should release it as one thing instead of chapter by chapter bc I’ve been informed people have trust issues, me too

pls help

the Minecraft movie trailer really shows how much they’re ignoring the actual roots of the game and community 😭

there’s over a DECADE of incredible Minecraft animation they could’ve used for reference and they churn out this??? 😭 it feels so soulless

slamacow, the digbuildlive project by bootstrap buckaroo, YouTuber music videos like those of captainsparkles 😭 even smps and drama series could’ve been used to inspire!!

I’m just so disappointed, they’re killing art

had a dream there was a tom wambsgans simulator and this was the only gameplay i remember

trying to write bbh cellbit survival games fic but having trouble figuring it out

if anybody has any headcanons or actual canon they want to see plz let me know, I’m trying to scrape together a plot and all I have is a vibe

the vibe is that they and all these other people are stuck in a desolate tb2t kind of place and nobody can escape so everyone is just fighting for resources and it would be cold asf

2 Adventures AU

I think it would be kind of interesting if the chain went on two adventures. What I mean by that is the first one would occur while most of the chain have only been through one or a few of their games. This could also be seen as a childhood friends au? The chain is pulled together when most of them are pretty young.

Time has just finished Majora’s Mask and is in full young teen angst, trauma, mode. He’s extremely mischievous and poorly adjusted. He’s only around 12 or 13 years old.

Wind has just been through the events of Wind Waker. He’s only 12 and is pretty shaken up but still pretty similar I’d say. Maybe even more hyper and desperate to prove himself.

Hyrule has just been through the events of Zelda 1. He’s quiet and jumpy. Dawn has gently been spending the past two years trying to help him adjust to a more social life but it’s been slow going. He’s extremely anxious to be around so many people. I’d say he’s around 14.

Four has only been through the events of Minish Cap so he’s not even Four yet. His age is canonically the most confusing to me but I really like the headcanons that he’s a young adult who has a baby face. In this he’d be a kid though, so maybe around 11?

Legend I can’t decide whether he’d have only been through A Link to the Past and the oracle games or if he’s been through Links Awakening by this point. I think it would be more interesting if he had just been through Link’s Awakening and is severely jaded. He’s 16. (If he had only been thru the oracle games he’d be 14 and a lot more light hearted)

Wild would have gone through the events of Botw being 17. He’d honestly just be pretty baseline with no crazy changes.

Twilight would have also just gone through Twilight Princess being 18. I think he’d be really hung up on Midna. 

Sky has also just completed Skyward Sword, I think he’d also be 18? Pretty similar to canon. 

Warriors was plucked halfway through his game and thrust into this adventure. He’s very stressed, worried he left his people behind when they needed him most. He becomes the group leader being the eldest at 20. 

They come together, pretty much a platoon of child soldiers, defeat the evil, say teary goodbyes, and return home. 

Years later they’re all shocked to be pulled into a second journey across time and get to reunite with their brothers. 

This time Time is his canon Lu age of being somewhere around his early to mid thirties being much more cool and collected than the actual child nightmare he was initially. He falls easily into a leadership role. He seems to have mended many of his mental wounds despite him being prone to grumpiness. This adventure after so many years of peace is pretty triggering though. 

Wind has gone through phantom hour glass and is freshly 15. He’s a little more mature now but very much so the same kid except now he’s like: “I see dead people”

Hyrule is a lot better socialized this time. He’s almost easy going and has a mischievous streak that the chain welcomes. It’s a fine change from the scared scrawny kid he was years ago. He still is exceedingly sweet and has a plethora of new talents to share. He also has crippling paranoid and a blood phobia. He’s around 18. 

Four, despite being the youngest the first mission, is now a young man being in his early twenties. He doesn’t talk much about his last adventure but he’s noticeably scatterbrained. Despite that, he can think outside the box like nobody else. It’s like he can think with the power of four people! He also goes by the name four now. 

Legend who has completed two more quests now is incredibly frustrated to have been yanked out of retirement/his wedding planning. Legend was able to manage a lot of healing over his last two journeys. He got engaged to the one and only Ravio who he was supposed to be working on wedding invitations with. He’s lighter now but still a grouch at times. He’s in his earlier twenties.

Wild has completed his mission from TotK and somehow his iPad can do EVEN MORE now. If lobbing bombs wasn’t enough last time, now he can crawl through walls. He is noticeably shaken in a way he wasn’t last time and has almost an unwilling clarity of the world around him. He’s 21 now. 

I so sorry but I don’t think Twilight would be much different. If anyone has thoughts pls lmk. He’s been able to move on from Midna and has thrown himself into shepherd work. I think he’d be courting Ilia and would be living a good country life while getting to brag about having tea with the princess. He’s fairly okay with being on another mission.

Okay this is totally just a headcanon but I picture Sky as that guy you knew in highschool who gets married really young and starts a family right after school. Sky is stressed after getting sent on another because he’s in the middle of building a kingdom and his wife, Sun, is pregnant. 

Poor Warriors. As mentioned the first journey happened for him when he was halfway through his war. Unlike many of the others, when he returned to his f ‘n c z timeline it was like no time had passed at all. For the second half of his war he met many new people and old friends. Mask (time) joined him, an older, almost grown version of Wind as his best friend and second in command, Ravio, Midna. When the war ends he’s saddened to say goodbye to dear friends once again. Warriors is whisked away to his second journey with the chain the moment his war ends. For him, it’s only been a year or less in some circumstances that he’s seen the chain. For most of them to had aged so much is jarring to him. The last time he saw them all it was him and a mostly non verbal group of children. Now it’s a group of almost all adults bar Wind, who was Warriors’ age last time he saw him. Most shocking of all is to see his baby brother all grown up and older than him. 

I haven’t put much further thought into the AU but I thought the dynamic of splitting the chain up by the amount of adventures they completed would be interesting. Most of the chain also had started their journeys as children so I thought it would be a fun dynamic for them to have all met younger. Poor Warriors though, leading 6 mentally ill teenagers and children was a huge task. And now they’re all either older than him or roughly the same age. I imagine they hit the pubs hard 😭

another lu AU

the chain but they’re a van life family YouTube channel

I FORGOT ABOUT LUNK 😭

and omg Cyanide and Happiness what nostalgia

this post has been reminding me that Link’s Awakening had the biggest impact on millennials and that everything I ever think they’ve already thunk and I should remember that.

I feel like this version of Legend is biblically accurate to your rabbit headcanon Legend, at least in the way his uncle is scared of him 😭 @weepingtalecowboy

idk if this has been said before but a headcanon of mine (from my ✨personal✨ collection) is that before Hyrule met Legend he thought that he’d have a sort of Heman (He-Man???) build

Like this ^ before meeting him bc the legends were always saying stuff like “The hero of Legend could lift BOULDERS with his bare hands!!! He could run faster than an arrow 😤”

and poor Rulie always felt like such a fraud bc he was using power cuff and rings to aide himself

when he finally meets Legend and finds out he’s a slight malnourished twink that’s also been using magic items to aide himself he’s so happy and relieved.

there’s also something so special about being able to see yourself in your hero and finding out they’re not some perfect alpha chad but a genuine person who wasn’t ready to fight but had to blah blah blah

you guys know the trope in anime or other media where they have to dress a guy up as a girl to go undercover or something and he’s just so embarrassed/annoyed? I think in the chain it would be the opposite

Maybe the chain has to get in somewhere, maybe a Gerudo run city and ofc men aren’t allowed (this is with the assumption everyone in the chain identifies as male). Somebody, maybe Wars, is like: “alright guys… I think the only way we can get in is by cross dressing…. Is everyone comfortable with that-“ only to turn around and everyone is basically already in dresses.

Like obviously there’s Wild with his Gerudo outfit. Legend and Hyrule have canonically worn dresses. Time didn’t have a strong grasp of gender, especially gender norms, until he was like 10. Wind has a little sister, he probably plays dress up with her. I feel like most of the chain is gender nonconforming asf. Four was literally forced to talk personally with each aspect of not just his personality but his soul, he’s got himself figured out. Twilight is similar, he was literally a wolf, the clothing he wears is definitely not what defines him. Sky just gives me the vibe that he doesn’t think it’s that deep. And Wars is a dedicated guy.

and so, turns out none of them actually really care.

legend is just: “I’ve literally been wearing a dress this whole time.” Everyone kinda thought it was a fancy tunic 😔
