LU Soul Eater AU: Legend

Thank you to everyone who Voted! Poor Legend 😭 his story starts with his birth (and some world building)

In this AU, Hyrule is a LARGE empire around the size of North America. In it are several ruling families that serve the Empress. Legend’s father is the second most high ranking royal, the king of western Hyrule. He rules over the largest part of land that doesn’t belong to the Empress.

I don’t think the king in ALTTP has a canon name so in this I’ll call him King West for simplicity.

King West and his wife, Queen West, have Fable. Unfortunately for Queen West, she struggles a lot with postpartum depression and spends some time recovering. This time is incredibly stressful for King West, who finds himself as the soul leader of western Hyrule, so he decides to blow off some steam and has an affair with a maid. 

Obviously this is Legend’s mother. She gives birth to him 10 months after Fable was born, (they’re Irish twins!), and passes away due to complications during it.

At this point a lot of the palace staff are really pissed off that this happened. Being left with the King’s bastard, they decide to bring Legend to the ENTIRE castle’s attention. This news reaches the king just a little after it reaches the Queen.

She’s FURIOUS. He had a stressful year??? She thought she was going to DIE.

Advisors suggest surrendering the boy to an orphanage where he can grow up anonymously, but the gossip of the king’s bastard son has already traveled far enough that the other kingdoms of Hyrule know it. They cannot renounce royal blood. Hylia flows through the child’s veins. 

The Queen demands that the child will not be raised in her castle. She cannot bear to watch the king’s “mistake” wander her halls. The king decides to send the child to be raised by his brother, Legend’s uncle, who is a small lord at the kingdom’s border. 

The king and Queen cannot divorce, but the Queen ends up spending most of her time traveling the empire on diplomatic missions. Fable is mostly raised by her father.

(Years later the Queen regrets her decision in casting Legend out. Legend does not. He’s actually grateful to have been raised away from court.)

Despite the amount of mess surrounding his birth, Legend is raised to be a very happy boy under his uncle’s care. He grows up in a small fort surrounded by apple trees and friends. His uncle never wed nor had children, so he gets all the attention he needs. He rides horses, learns some magic, and how to farm over the years.

Right before his 12th birthday, a witch called Agahnim sends western Hyrule into chaos. Legend’s Uncle is summoned to the castle to provide extra defense. Despite warning Legend to stay home, he sneaks after him. 

His uncle is too late, the castle is already taken over. Legend finds his uncle bleeding out. His uncle tells him that he needs to find his sister and get to safety before he dies in Legend’s arms.

Now he’s all alone. He finds Fable terrified and together they escape. Together they decide that they must take down Agahnim before he claims the rest of their kingdom. 

Fable can turn into a sword (I’m still trying to think of what type but a rapier is really burning into my brain). Wielding his sister, they go through a long and hard journey, eventually killing Agahnim and restoring “peace and balance” to their kingdom.

And Legend feels AWFUL. His father joyfully has him stay back at the kingdom. He’s a hero now. The Queen wouldn’t keep a hero from living in the castle, would she? 

He hates it. He starts taking etiquette classes and begins to learn how to be a proper prince. To make matters worse, Fable doesn’t even stay in Western Hyrule for most of the time. She’s usually in the northwest studying with her meister, Princess Dot.

He’s lonely and scared. When Agahnim attacked, he sent a curse over the land to cause all the knights to hunt him down. Now as he walks the castle halls he has to look at the people who wanted to hurt him only a few months ago. He also can’t stop having nightmares about his uncle. He misses him terribly.

Thankfully, this degree of hurt and loneliness doesn’t last too long. He keeps catching glimpses of a short kid who doesn’t look like he’s from here darting about the castle. One day they run into each other and he finally meets Hyrule.

Hyrule and Legend click instantly. Upon finding out that Hyrule is a weapon, specifically a magic weapon, they both become greatly excited to practice spells together. Legend and Hyrule both are very happy about this because neither of them have been able to practice their magic since moving into the castle. Eventually they get caught and this is a great concern. Hyrule is a lot of things: Sweet, cunning, powerful, Legend’s new best friend, and the son of the witch that corrupted all of southern Hyrule/political prisoner. 

King West tries to tell Legend that he and Hyrule can no longer see each other. That Hyrule is potentially- No is. Very dangerous. Legend throws his first tantrum. Queen West who is back for diplomatic affairs has been eaten away by her guilt of casting the young prince away for years. She gives Legend permission to become Hyrule’s full time meister. 

King West does not want to deal with this so he sends the two away to a boarding school that will properly train them. 

When Legend turns 16, he’s sent by his father on a solo quest to Labrynna and Holodrum which are part of the neighboring empire to Hyrule. There he does good deeds, the oracle games, in order to maintain good relations between them and Hyrule. On the way back he gets into an awful boat wreck, Link’s Awakening, barely making it home. 

Freshly traumatized, all he wants to see is his best friend. Unfortunately, while he was gone, Hyrule was sent back to southern Hyrule where he completed his own quest, Adventure of Link basically. 

Despite completing his quest, Hyrule hasn’t returned, having gone missing, so Legend sets out to look for him. 

Southern Hyrule is a combination of Hyrule’s games and Lorule. I’ll get more into when I retcon and write Hyrule’s part. 

Legend meets Ravio and strengthens ties between Southern Hyrule and Western Hyrule. Southern Hyrule has been oppressed by the rest of the empire for a long time. After it was taken over and cursed by a witch, Rule’s mom, 70ish years ago, it’s basically been under martial law/abandoned by the rest of the empire. It has multiple rulers and it is fraying apart. With Fable, Legend is able to secure future ties between the two kingdoms.

Finally he finds Hyrule, also freshly traumatized by his mission, and takes him home, not to the castle, but to his uncle's old fort which he finds under possession of Ravio. 

A few years of growing pass before they’re asked to join a new mission. 

And that’s Legend! I’m sorry if the world building is choppy, I’m still working on it! Please please please lmk what you all think! Lmk who you’d like to see next and any thoughts or headcanons you have!!

Legend has the bun instincts (that isn’t good)

@livmightlive (sorry but this didn’t fit in the comment lol )

Fanfic prompt: I love the idea of legend and twilight having instincts from their animal forms

The dark form is a literal representation of the person where the twilight curse just happened to make link a wolf because of the triforce and not a spirit as it did with the npcs

But I couldn’t help myself because it made me think just how bad can their instincts get

I think it is mostly just the symbolism of a cannibalistic rabbit

The rabbit is often seen as a symbol of innocence and people find them cute and consider them tiny lil fluffs

But rabbits are genuinely nasty pieces of shit and well known for cannibalism and mutilating each other (eating each other’s kits ,chopping off dicks , or ripping off ears, a rabbit paw has completely different meaning in this one)

And I just want to say… a rabbit is a very dangerous and very scary animal if it was a person with the skills of one)

If we talk instincts it would be more realistic if legend was a crazy violence driven maniac because rabbits instinctively want to hurt each other

As they are very territorial the rabbit will often be aggressive towards the rest of the fluffle (and he is a hylian, so what does it mean for the chain)

(it is an evolutionary trait that presumably evolved because rabbits compete for food often and the aggressive behavior would make the competition more likely to perish)

Rabbit teeth can easily bite off fingers and rip out chunks of meat from your body as they are very sharp in one place like scissors

A stressed rabbit is a danger (and legend is always stressed so there is that) as it increases their chances of survival

Further more canonically legend murdered at least ten of his uncle’s friends (the boss fights are mandatory you need the items)

And probably at least a dozen knights (I once killed over 348 because they keep respawning and I was actively hunting those lil guys)

All of them who were sons and relatives, fathers and loved by someone

While it was a fight for survival he knew they all were just innocent men trying to protect the kingdom being simply cursed not in control of their actions

But as it came to his or their life he choose himself above all others (like the rabbit he is)

Even people he knew since he was little he killed when they posed a threat

If we use blind it gets even scarier because blind is a boss that takes the appearance of the one you love the most

Yet link killed his uncle's appearance while it begged and pleaded that he would stop (that fight in four sword palace is mental)

He killed the owner of the four sword afterwards as well

His wish was to undo the damage that ganon caused …,

But would that wish include the men dead by his hand ?

Or do hundreds of men stayed dead by his hands

I like to think that legend doesn’t regret his own continued existence

Perhaps if he could have the chance to redo his actions he would do so again if necessary

Legend the type of guy who you want to keep fed or risk getting cannibalized (the only and last time that the chain made that mistake)

When he was teasing wars the knight should have been glad that legend wasn’t Pulling out a fucking gun (which he canonically has since the oracle adventures)

Even if it ain’t personal it’s just survival instinct

If you are a bbh fan I hope you like this! It's basically a little over 3k of thinking about egg death and all that entails

That’s so embarrassing I forgot the link

should I just accept that I’m a badboyhalo fan account?

should I change my user to something more bbh themed? I feel like I need to be knighted or baptized or something

every big bbh fan account has like a notable name

I have aspirations

I need to start dominating the #badboyhalo tag

AU where the Hyrule and Legend meet first before the rest of the chain.

The portal dumps Hyrule right in the middle of the ocean. Even if he could swim it would be futile as there’s no land for many miles. As he starts to drown he sees a flash of shimmering scales. He loses and regains consciousness over and over again over a course of time that he can’t count. Each time he wakes sees pretty pink scales, pink hair, gills, and violet eyes. Sometimes he even hears the comforting few notes of a song.

When he finally comes to it’s tucked safely under a cluster of palm trees on the shore of an unfamiliar beach in an even more unfamiliar, but familiar, Hyrule. He has to wonder if the goddess really does love him or if he really was rescued by a mermaid.

Legend had never intended to leave the unfortunate Hylian behind. He left him in a safe spot on the shore before looking for a nearby village that could give better medical attention than he could. He never would have expected an avalanche to descend out of nowhere. It’s not even rainy season. Before he can run or activate a shield he’s struck across the head and knows no more.

He gains consciousness a few times and each he sees the shining form of a green fairy, a color of fairy he’s never seen before. Each time he wakes he hears soft chiming and feels the warmth of fairy magic in his blood. When he finally comes to he’s nestled safely in the roots of a great old tree. He wonders if the green fairy was real or if one of his rings just activated.

Legend and Hyrule both travel for a day aching and tired. Each of them are determined to find the unfortunate soul they had to momentarily leave alone. They run into each other on the road and recognize one another immediately. Do they mention their acts of kindness or blatant recognition? NO.

Maybe one day in the future they mention being saved by a mermaid/odd green fairy. Do they piece together each other’s stories? Maybe…

tbh, I’m not voting based off politics at all

Baghera is, to me, the obvious choice. She’s smart, reasonable, and well intentioned, BUT. Is there drama with her winning? I believe woman but she’s just too good of a choice. I’m too messy for that.

Badboyhalo is my personal bbg, but I’m so worried he might go villain mode and my heart can’t take that 💔 I know he’s not the same as c!bbh but if he brings Skeppy in I think we all know how easily he can be manipulated and made to be the bad guy. Even without Skeppy, what if they hold Dapper at stake? Bbh is too kind hearted 🥀 I can’t watch my fav be made to be a bad guy. I do want him exposed to the horrors tho

and then Gegg… Gegg might take the cake for me not bc of his policies or Gegg swag, but bc.. who would he bring in? What if he revives Tilin or Juanaflipa and his person? Also I just miss Charlie

do you guys like my Badboyhalo - Angel Of Darkness AMV

I’m too tired to try and write an actual Drabble, but I think Dapper made it onto the boat with the elytra

Imagine with me:

The last we saw from bbh’s pov was Dapper pearling away. I imagine he makes it to a high point and uses the elytra, flying after the boat. He starts losing momentum and remembers his firework, which he uses just in time. It’s just enough to propel him fast enough to catch up. He crash lands onto the deck hard but everyone takes care of him.

Poor Dapper is absolutely distraught, more than anyone has ever seen him. He’s disoriented and hurt from months of running and being kidnapped. He hit the deck hard enough to hurt himself but he’s safe at the cost of his Father, siblings, and the rest of his family.

I imagine he’s inconsolable but everyone is able to take care of him.

LOL thank you this is the answer I was looking for! They miscommunicate with an emo/goth girl kinda swag…

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

Maybe it’s bc Shadow reminds me of Homura
