I Don’t Think You’re Mean At All!! This Is Why I Do It 💕🐈

is there any canon to there being only a 5 hour time slot to do missions?

I think the most realistic sensible one would be that’s the only time frame they have on the island to do missions and actions that influence their percentages but that’s kinda boring for a fanfic/fantasy perspective

it also gets kind of convoluted with that even though their percentages won’t change, they could still grind out stuff to prep for missions

My thoughts are that:

(in fanon) there is no five hour time limit and they are just constantly on edge, anarchy server style

out of those 5 hours they’re just put into comas. They drop where they stand

They're overcome with such intense exhaustion and weakness that they can’t even really do work

magic, they can’t interact with anything relating to quests

pls pls pls share your guy’s thoughts

I genuinely don’t know how I am not seeing more of this woman on my feed

never have I wanted somebody more carnally

like I am howling at the moon, clawing at my walls, biting at my chains

the things I would do to be one of this woman’s wives

I didn’t understand x reader fics until she graced the screen

My blood feels hot that I want her so bad

OMG DIVING RIGHT IN!!! I’m so honored you got inspired by my headcanon 💕💕💕

“Um…what’s a pumpkin?” Hyrule asked

It was safe to say that all hell broke loose.

“You don’t know what a pumpkin is? ” Sky and Twilight demanded at the exact same time, both completely horrified and in despair at this revelation. 

“The orange vegetable that grows like—” Wind said, using his hands to gesture a round, lopsided object.

“Everyone else knows what a pumpkin is, Wind, you don’t need to clarify,” Four said, shockingly unfazed compared to the other companions.

“You’ve never eaten a pumpkin…” Twilight muttered, holding his head in his hands as he mourned.

Legend gawked at him, midway through sharpening his sword as he exclaimed, “At all??”

No, not you too! Legend was the veteran—and more specifically, the hero before him! That implied that Legend’s era had pumpkins, but not Hyrule’s—it was another testament to how dead and wasted his land was…

Legend must be ashamed of how I cared for his land…

Hyrule buried his face into his knees, wondering if his face was burning alive. This was humiliating! He didn’t think it was that big of a deal, yet everyone was looking at him as if he’d been the one to say “Who’s Ganon?”

Why is this such a big deal?? 

----

Hyrule realizes that he doesn't know a lot of things that the other members of the chain do. Pumpkins, apples, animals...but then Hyrule also realizes that maybe he can use this to his advantage to cause some chaos.

I can’t explain it but vidow is so Yuri coded to me

Maybe it’s bc Shadow reminds me of Homura

Time and Warriors were bothering me so I’m assigning them new songs 😭 (the last ones still fit but I didn’t try as hard for them)

Warriors - When Memories Snow

And if I break Could I go on break? Be back in my room Writin' speeches in my head Listenin' to the thousand hands That clap for me in the dark

Time - Heaven

Hear the storm dances outside Something set free is running through the night And the dark awaits us all around the corner But here in our place, we have for the day Can we stay a while and listen for heaven?

Chain as Mitski Songs

Mitski Chain

I have a really bad habit that I’m trying to break 😭 Mitski is one of my all time favorite artists but… I made a really bad habit over time of listening to her music when I have felt my absolute worst 😮‍💨 Even thought I love her music so much I struggle to listen to it when I’m in a good mood because it tends to launch me back to the REALLY bad times I let myself listen to her. Like, in sake of my mental health I’ve had to lowkey ban her for myself 

Soooo… I’m trying to slowly ease myself back into her music by trying to associate her with other things than my own struggles 😤

So here’s the chain as Mitski songs! And a lyric from the song that particularly stood out to me for the guy

(Honestly, I think any Mitski song can kind of be applied to any of the chain but this is just my mood for tonite)

LU Maze Runner AU

HEEHEE OKAY. Lowkey feeling a little bit old with this one but 👀👀👀 

Maze Runner AU.

Maybe it’s just me but I feel like the Lu boys fit perfectly into this scenario. Like it’s just music to me. 

It’s been a long time since I’ve read the books (lowkey gave up on the movies 😔), so I apologize if things are fuzzy or don’t match the book canon that well. Okay here we go: 

Hyrule would be first in the maze. (I’m going by game release order). Hyrule starts exploring the maze after he gets to know the glade, but a severe accident makes him avoid it. He would be alone all by himself for almost 4 months before he’s joined by Legend. He knows the glade better than anybody. Later he becomes the group’s “med-jack” (basically just medic). He’s 17.

Legend is next. He becomes the first runner in the maze because he made SEVERAL escape attempts before Hyrule begged him to calm down before he got himself killed. He’s really good at drawing maps and becomes the map maker. He’s 18.

Time was a bit of a shock because unlike the other boys he’s an adult (23), tall, and swole. He came 2 months after Legend. The boys are really skittish around him at first, but he’s really good at building. He’s able to reach the high places they can’t so the come around. 

Wind is also a surprise but because he’s young (14). He comes a month after Time. He brings a lot of energy to the group and they grow closer because of it (or at least Legend and Hyrule get a little less codependent and spend more time with other people). He’s very frustrated because he wants to help with running the maze but the others, mostly Time won’t let him. This is around the time that Time (ugh) takes his place as first in command.

Four is the first person to actually take to the maze well. The others are shocked, waiting for his crash out but it doesn’t come. He confides one night that his head doesn’t feel right, like it’s holding too much. The longer he stays the more prone to severe mood shifts. He’s 16 and takes care of building things like tools and handling small mechanisms. He came 2 weeks after Wind, having the shortest amount of time between arrivals.

Twilight is another person who doesn’t take this maze business well. He stalks off immediately into the maze. After going in and out of the maze for days, not listening to the protests of others, he comes back with awful claw marks raked across his face. He’s more inclined for teamwork after that. Wind pulls out his fun side. Twilight has a green thumb and starts domesticating the plants of the glade. He’s 19 and came 1.5 months after Four. 

Sky is a nice addition. He comes 2 months after Twilight He’s the most gentle person to come up so far and is very inclined to teamwork but… Sky is drawn to the maze like a moth to a flame. Somehow he drags a very aggressive bird species from it into the glade and starts farming them. Sky is 18.

Warriors doesn’t take his arrival well, but at this point there’s already 6 people to yell at you to not run into the maze first chance possible so he doesn’t. Warriors is incredibly logical and a great planner. He doesn’t take much time to become a second in command. The whole time he’s in the maze he has a sick feeling that he recognizes it. He’s 21 and had come a month after Sky.

When Wild comes it’s a shock because he comes 5 months after Wars. Wild is the worst case of memory loss they’ve seen. Most people remember weird things like their age or even a name to go by, but Wild has nothing. He learns quick, however, and becomes the groups most fearless runner. He’s 17. Greenie.

I have more, but this would be a little too long if I wrote all the lore I have building >_<. I have a rough plot in mind and lore for them in the maze if anyone wants to hear about it 

Please lmk what you think and any theories you might have!

Skyward Sword thoughts but mostly shipping and some LU

Okay I’m having big thoughts after finishing Skyward sword and they’re mostly about the shipping (I know I’m disappointing myself rn 😭)… and it’s NAMELY… Groozelink. But we’ll get there. First. Analysis. (This is also gonna swing back around to LU, not yet but we’ll get there! In case anyone is confused over the Sun and Sky naming convention)

Skyward Sword is the first Zelda game I’ve played to actually make me kind of ship Zelink. I’m not a hater, cross my heart, but like, most times I just really really don’t ship Zelink. Either canon isn’t enough for me or just.. idk, it doesn’t appeal to me. Most Zelink ships just don’t do it for me.

But Skyward Sword… from the beginning they were basically an established relationship which somehow didn’t annoy me. I thought they were kind of cute, like first love teens. Sun sticks up for Sky. Nice. Cute. No flaws or annoyances.

But then… DRAMA happens and it feeds my soul. I was pretty content in the first acts embarking on this quest for Sky’s kinda girlfriend. She endeared herself to me enough for my heart to be in it. And then you actually see her a few times and she’s got her own quest going on and it’s like cool… how do I fit into this? There’s something bigger than the two of them going on now. (I also just really like how they showed that she had a lot going on. It’s nice to see her have autonomy)

BUT THEN… 👀👀👀 Sun awakens her identity as Hylia and full on admits that she was using Sky’s affection for her to embark him on this quest which raises a lot of questions. Like:

Is Sun’s affections real or were they fabricated by the Goddess? How much of this was Sun and how much of this was Hylia?

I don’t doubt that Sun does have affection for Sky but if it were me, I would be HAUNTED. If I were Sky I’d be replaying that conversation through my head again and again. Especially in the post credit scene where she starts talking about how she wants to stay and protect the triforce… like… is that YOU or HYLIA??? And then she asks Sky what he’s going to do and it’s like… does he even have a choice? This whole game was kind of leading to the fact that this is what he was made for. It’s his fate. Of COURSE he’s going to stay with her. But what I want to know is does he ever think about that??? Does he ever wonder if Sun loves him back?

And if I were Sun I would feel guilty, and holy shit she’s literally cursed, in my opinion, of all the memories and knowledge of the Goddess she once worshiped. And if she does like Sky I bet she would wonder if those are her true feelings or if they’re just convenient to keep everything in line. Or maybe she’s scared of hurting him again. One part of her dragged him purposefully into an extremely dangerous quest and now she’s pulling him into even more serious responsibilities… (if I were to character analyze ss!Link I really feel like he’s the type to be really content with letting others take the reins for stuff like this. His quest was really out of necessity. In my eyes)

From here on it’s my own kind of really dramatic fanfic-esque take on everything so if you’re not down me way over thinking and reading into things this might not be for you

Because Groose… 😭 I’ve been aware of Groose as concept and the Groozelink ship for a while now but I always thought of it as a crack ship until I played the game and… there’s a LOT more there than I ever expected there to be. why TF was he there for like most of the key moments??? Why did they become a trio??? Why were they exchanging GLANCES in those cutscenes????

But anyways, I think they’d get married really soon after getting to the surface. Kind of a shotgun wedding. They’re basically going to be the first monarchs of Hyrule (or at least I think that’s implied?) they’re at least going to probably be in positions of leadership building the kingdom of Hyrule. Getting married makes sense. They love each other. Right?… RIGHT?!?!? That has to be real!! Out of everything at least they still have each other????

I think Sun starts getting eaten up by guilt. She doesn’t know if Sky is happy. He’s a pillar of strength next to her but he’s changed… of course he is after what he went through but she knows that he’s upset. He’s having nightmares, he’s stressed. She thinks that maybe he’s feeling trapped… And maybe she’s what’s trapping him into this stressful lifestyle. That maybe there’s some mistrust.

I also think maybe she starts feeling discontent with being the goddess reincarnate. She’s still mortal, she doesn’t want to be perfect. It’s getting to her… so….

She turns her eyes on Groose. Groose who’s gotten so reliable. So kind. So… so FINE.

So maybe one night she leans in for the kiss and of course Groose is kind of horrified. He’s also confused because he loved her for so long but… she’s married!! To his best friend. But. He also knows that she’s been traumatized and traumatized people do weird things. So he turns her down, with surprising grace, and begs her to consider her husband. He decides he won’t tell Sky, because at the moment that feels like it would do more harm than good. He is worried about Sun’s mental health though… but before he can do anything about that…

Sky tries to pull the exact same thing 😭😭😭

so now poor Groose is trying to figure out what to do bc how do you tell a couple they’ve both tried to cheat on each other and how do you gently tell two traumatized people that maybe they need to pump the breaks on building an entire new country, relinquished care of the triforce for a little bit, and focus on actually healing from what happened to them???

But then Sky gets eaten by a portal and gets thrust into another quest but with 8 other Link’s just like him.

Sky eventually tells the chain that he’s married to the goddess incarnate. He’s kind of horrified in himself for making a pass at Groose, kind, reliable Groose…, so he goes full wife guy iykyk. So for months he’s like: *fists clenched* IlovemywifeIlovemywifeIlovemywife-

To where it’s like… part of his personality.

And then they finally do get to Sky’s era and… at first they’re just as lovey dovey as you’d expect from how Sky’s been talking… but then… maybe over dinner… (don’t ask me how this happens just let me write my shitty soap opera) Sky figures out that Sun made a pass at Groose. Maybe he finds a letter Groose was trying to draft or maybe Sun’s been trying to get the guy to stay over while Sky’s been gone…

And holy SHIT do they have the fight of the MILLENNIA. But it’s not just Sky going: “omg I can’t believe you tried to cheat on me” it’s “HE’S MINNNEEEEE!!!!” From both of them

And then there’s screaming, plate throwing, cussing. And then it’s just not about the attempted cheating but every single little thing they can nitpick. All of their dirty laundry out.

And the chain, who were trying to enjoy their nice dinner of pumpkin soup, are sitting in shocked silence the whole time just like: 😦😟🥲

Maybe a few of them are secretly relieve bc they’ve had some relationship issues BUT NOT LIKE THIS while others are scared this might be some sort of genetic Link curse.

The fight escalates when Sun pulls the harp off the wall. Sky treats her like she just picked up a loaded gun. Things look like they’re gonna get worse when they notice Groose standing in the doorway.

He’s so sad… he’s down trodden. He doesn’t want his best friends to fight like this… he’s going back to Skyloft for a while.

Sky and Sun promise each other to actually talk when Sky gets back home and when he does… they do. Because. They do love each other. They just hate feeling like pawns incapable of their own actions and fates…

And… they both really do like Groose. So they talk to him… apologize. And the rest… 😘 who knows lol.

They grow not only to love each other more authentically but respect each other in new ways too. They learn to live apart from each other but with each other as well… and. They do really love each other.

The end I’m tried I’m going to bed 😮‍💨 I hope somebody else had a similar thought process to me bc this game was genuinely kind of a mindfuck to me (but I loved it). But there’s SO much to unpack with Link in Zelda in Skyward Sword. Like, it had me going bonkers. If you liked this pls… pls talk to me. I NEED to talk about this with someone. This is a cry for help. Pls somebody talk to me about skyward sword it was insane

Edit: and omg what was going on with Zelda and Impa too??? Lowkey Good Luck Babe coded

Fit flinches as he feels the familiar sting of a blade piercing skin.

He turns in a flash, shield up and axe immediately in hand - his distraction's already cost him and he'll not let another second pass like that.

He's met with a tired, but determined pair of eyes. Familiar eyes.

Pac.

Fit blocks the next blow with his shield.

Well, that disperses with the uncertainty, he supposes. They both know what's at stake. And Pac's not looking to waste any opportunity - no matter what they might be to each other.

(Friends. Very good friends. That's all.)

Fit sighs with fake contentment as something in him settles in that familiar, cold place. There's nothing off the table anymore - and noone, either.

Just like the wasteland.

"Well, if that's how you want it, Pac," he says, utterly calm, as he switches to offensive.
