Linked Universe Au - Blog Posts

NINTENDO! I need a series of this!!!!

I'm so obsessed with the Linked Universe, but can you imagine if a movie or series would come out!!!

What Artstyle would you think should it be in though?

Something like Arcane?

Or maybe a collage of Artstyles like in Spiderverse?

...That would emphasise the differences between the Links...

Or Puss in Boots? I really liked the Animation of the Sequel!!!

Or maybe something 2D?

What is your opinion? Tell me about your ideas!

@linkeduniverse would love to know your opinion on this!

Linked Universe Anime Opening

Revivaln't

Wow, villains can sure talk. It's been- uhhh

Seven minutes.

Thanks Vio. Seven minutes that Dinky Bitch here has been monologuing. Much too long. Please get to the point good sir-

He is nowhere near good.

Tolerable s-

Still no.

Sir.

…

Fucker.

pfft- 

"And well.. I have the means to bring your dear shadow back from the dead." 

Four zoned back in at that line with a slow, slow blink. 

Four sighed. 

He took out his journal and pen. 

Opened to the second page, as the first was full, and made a single tally mark. 

Closed his book with a snap, and put it away. 

All without breaking eye contact. 

"283." 

If Dark Link could, he'd be sweating buckets. He twitched at every sound and actually flinched when four talked. 

"That's how many times I've been offered such a ridiculous thing." 

Off to the side, seemingly from the ground, muffled laughter could be heard. A being emerged from Four's shadow. 

"Dude!" Shadow said, then almost broke into cackles, "I'm right here! Been here for a while now!"

♤♡♧◇

this has been sitting in my docs collecting dust for a while now. It feels incomplete and i wanna do more with it, but... the brain juices ain't flowin. If anyone wants to continue it, go right ahead.

Four Thoughts

obligatory his eyes change color hc

Four talks to himself in minish, so no one can snoop. (except for, well, the minish, but he doesn't care cause they're nice)

the way the colors originally split: Red is positive emotions, Blue is negative emotions, Vio is logical hard facts intelligence, Green is nuanced people intelligence.

but that's not their entire personalities. blue is also determination :)

Yo what if their sword could kinda shapeshift for each of the colors? 

Red: Shinobu’s sword from demon slayer

Blue: Antarcticite’s sword from lotl

Vio: pure nail from hollow knight

Green: Alhaithem’s sword from genshin impact

and ofc, they also all use the base version of the sword and their other preferred weapons.

oh! oh! what if two colors piloting means dual blades?? like Lady Maria from bloodborne! or Zuko from atla!

hold on! I'm putting my two brainrots, genshin and lu, in a blender! bthpbthpbthpbthpbthpbthpbthpbthpbthpbthpbthpbthpbthp 👁👁

k now imagine this as some sort of book given to the chain:

Ancient Teyvat History

Long ago the kingdom known as Hyrule broke into the seven nations we know today. The three goddesses who rule over Celestia– Din, Nayru, and Farore– created the Archons. Semi-immortal beings granted a seat on the elemental thrones, and a Gnosis to rule their nations with.

Anemo, Geo Electro, Dendro, Hydro, Pyro, and Cryo. Mondstadt, Liyue, Inazuma, Sumeru, Fontaine, Natlan, and Snezhnaya.

Now, the Triforce is still present in our current world, but it has faded. Perhaps been hidden, if you will. Gannon is no longer a threat. The sacred name of Zelda is not passed down, as the royal family is no longer about. The Hero needs not arise. We unfortunately do not have much information on The Heros, no names, no mention of family or home have been mentioned in the records. But it is undeniable the link they have to the Triforce of courage, their adventures forever remembered. 

♤♡♧◇ This is part two of FaeHyrule-1. Please read that before this. Or don't. ♤♡♧◇

“Ew. Sticky.” The voice of Fay drifted like an omen after being suddenly dropped like a hot potato into another Hyrule.

“Huh?” came the ever so elegant response.

It was weird a non-link was portaled with them. This never happened before.

A moment of confused and awkward silence passed before clarification came. "The surrounding magic: it’s sticky."

This was the answer to the question verbalized, but not the one they all had. Ordon stretched on around them, the eerie lull of night settling in on the heroes.

Twilight began to move and the others followed. All except Fay, who vanished without a sound before they could do a head count.

~

After setting up camp, Fay emerged. He looked slightly uncomfortable as he brushed off seemingly nothing from his tunic and pants and slowly sat to a croutch.

“I suppose it makes sense that you feel so sticky now.” Fay commented, staring right at Twilight.

“Umm… What?”

“What do you mean he feels sticky?” Legend inquired, “If anything I’d say he feels dusty from all the dirt and that pelt, but not sticky.”

“It's the magic. In the air, the ground, the plants, even in Twilight himself. It feels sticky and seems to leave a bit of residue on whatever it touches. It almost feels like eating too much කැරමල් … err, caramel…?”

Wild looked up from his boiling pot at whatever language seemed to resonate and ring in Legend’s head. Four tilted his head with a gleam in his eyes, and Time might’ve reacted based on a small twitch of his hand, but none of the others seemed to react.

“So, “ Fay spoke once more, “Can I have your names? And a possible explanation for this… kerfuffle?”

The chain all looked at each other, then zeroed in on Sky. To his credit, said hero did nothing but blink.

“Oh! Yes, of course! I’m Sky, that's Time, Twilight, Wild, Warriors, Legend, Four and Wind” Sky introduced, pointing to each as he said their names.

Fay expected the tethers of given names, that small twist of magic emulating small candlelights of lifeforce, indicating he now held a thread connected to that person’s existence. What he didn’t expect was how bright and strong the flames would be, not that he'd do anything with them.

“Although, I suppose it wouldn't hurt to tell you those are just nicknames.”

Fay hummed in interest, wondering what made nicknames so powerful, and turned to fully face Sky. The other brought his fancy sword from beside him and onto his lap.

“We’re actually all named Link, “ Sky continued, “Reincarnations of the hero’s spirit from across time. We all fought to save our lands, some of us more than once, but this is the first time we’re doing it as a group. Our current theory as to why we were all gathered is because Hylia needs us all to fight off some big, horrible evil. Though the only evidence we’ve got of that evil are the black-blooded monsters.” Sky seemed saddened by their lack of progress, but tried to hide it with a pleasant topic change.

“Enough about us, care to share anything interesting about yourself?”

Fay hummed, “Well I suppose it's only fair if we trade. I was also originally called Link. I do prefer Fay though. It’s been my name since I met Pond mother. Link never really quite fit.”

“Umm, ” Sky stammers, not sure what, if anything, to say to that. “Okay,” he settles for, the word coming out a bit hollow-sounding.

“So why Fay?” Wind, ever the conversationalist, steamrolls on through the others’ momentary social glitch.

“It’s easier to slip under the radar with. I don’t remember much being Link but sacred sunlight above do you know how worked up people got when they would hear my name? It’s like no one could decide whether I was a plague personified sent by their demons or a god of life that came to rid the world of all inconveniences.”

“Rude” sniffs Wind in a comical and overdramatic charade. Though with a blink, Wind’s face fell into shock.

“Wait! Link!? You’re a Link! Holy fuck no wonder!”

A small, pitiful “language…” came from Twilight. His voice was snuffed out by Wind’s jubilated rambling, though a snort and a couple huffs let him know he was, in fact, heard.

“So I’m guessing we don’t need the whole Fi ceremony?” Warriors joked.

“Good thing too, ” Sky said back in a more exasperated tone than Warriors would expect, “‘Cuz his hero title is Hero of Hyrule and I think that’s just a disaster waiting to happen.”

♤♡♧◇ Plot? What plot? I was supposed to have one of those? And be consistent? Huh? Anywho, my focus is on Hyrule being a fae, not a cohesive world. Juggling all nine of ‘em is hard, blink and you'll miss it time and four. Note: Fae language is google translated Sinhala, it's not accurate or exact in what I want to say. Sorry, it's just pretty. ♤♡♧◇ Kudos to my sister who beta read and helped me get words outa my brain. <3

♤♡♧◇

Rule: I wish I had your upbringing… unfortunately, I'm civilized.

Wild: I- what??

♤♡♧◇

the thing this somewhat goes with but you don't have to read: FaeHyrule-1

♤♡♧◇

"Heads up!" a voice yelled, causing all eight of them to look up towards the cloaked figure in a tree. An arrow embedded itself between a bokoblin's eyes, effectively killing it. The mysterious hylian then jumped down, landing on another bokoblin, crushing it, and immediately moved to engulf a moblin in flames. In less than a minute, the remaining monsters were all dead. 

This was the first hylian they'd seen since arriving in this desolate Hyrule.

"Y’all good? No injuries?" Closer up they could see a freckled nose and a small grin, but the shadow of the cloak’s hood covered the strangers eyes. 

"Other than a few bruises and scrapes, nope." Time answered for the group.

"Neat. Have some chunks- just in case." the stranger said, tossing a bag over to him. "Crush them in your hand and sprinkle it over injuries. Or just eat 'em. Whichever is easier." Having said that, he turned and left to pluck his arrow from the bokoblin.

"Hey wait, what's your name? Where's the nearest town? We haven't seen anyone for ages!" Wind rushed to get it all out before the stranger could leave. He turned around, putting the arrow back in his quiver. 

"The name's Fay. And I think the nearest town is about two days to the south."

~

Link, who goes by Fay nowadays, would very much like to go home, re-bandage his leg, and go to sleep. Alas, sleep is unavailable, as he needs to stop the deaths of some odd travelers who somehow have no clue where they are. Isn't it common sense to only go on these types of roads if you’re well prepared and know what you're doing? Apparently not. 

He finally shook them off after giving directions to the nearest town and heading in the opposite direction. Or so he thought…

Three days later, he came across another monster camp. That wasn’t unusual. The monsters were a bit tougher and had black blood. That was unusual. Fay defeated them all the same with a sword, fire, and some lightning. 

Which was when the odd group showed up. Again. 

"Hello again! I thought you went a different direction than us." the white-caped one spoke up. 

"You weren't following us, were you?" the blue-scarved one asked with narrowed eyes. 

Fay flicked the black blood off his sword before sheathing it. It seemed to catch the attention of quite a few. "I was, but now I'm here. I’m a traveler.”

The one with a wolf’s pelt blinked, processing that, then glanced at the one with one eye. “We went to the village, but they wouldn't let us in. Something about eyes?”

Fay shrugged, “It happens. People are often spread thin on resources and wary of newcomers. The eyes of Ganon are everywhere after all.”

Before any of them could reply he tilted his head, starting to feel a strange tug on his magic. A dark purple and black portal opened beneath their feet, slurping them all up.

♤♡♧◇

Chunks/ කෑලි (kǣli): crystalized fairy dust. It has a similar Mohs to chalk. The fairies don't have to leave their fountains spending days in a bottle, and hylians don't have to spare precious resources. "Why can't you just eat the chunks? Isn't that the obviously easier option?" you may ask. Well, if you eat the chunk, the effect will be equally spread about. The chunk doesn't know what the fuck you want it to do. if you crush and sprinkle it over an injury, the effects will be stronger and targeted to that one area.

The brain rot wouldn't leave, so I wrote somethin. Credit to my sister who beta read. <3 I write once in a green moon. Today was a green moon.

Twi but he's having an exstinential crisis

Yes

Part 1/?

Inspired by this post by @triforceofchaos , Sorry it took so long for me to get to.

Could we get more from the Link!Ed AU?

Of course! Enjoy some doodles

Here's a Legend study for the Wulfos AU. The designs aren't completely set and stone, but they are getting there.

Made to go with Twilight's design

Furry Hyrule for @✨On the Found Family Juice✨ on discord

Roy Mustang Enjoy the new uniform design! I’m in charge of doing all the concept designs for Ahrva’s FullMetalHero Linked Universe AU The first chapter can be found here- The fic (Also, future Podfic…)

Edward joins the chain! I’m in charge of doing all the concept designs for Ahrva’s FullMetalHero Linked Universe AU The first chapter can be found here- The fic (Also, future Podfic...)

I published the first chapter!

Four gets the Zelda treatment

(Also known as I steal the plot of TOTK and run with it)

It's Always Darkest Before the Dawn - Chapter 1 - TheSkywalkerLegacy - The Legend of Zelda & Related Fandoms [Archive of Our Own]

Four dissolves

reblog with a spoiler for your wip with zero context. no context allowed.

Hear me out: Sky and Four as Gods

Sky is the god of Fate, skies and love

Four is the god of Magic, forests and luck.

This is entirely a self indulgent au that makes very little sense so enjoy

Designs!

I picked these two to be gods because I love them and thats the only reason

Lore and the blueprints of a story under the cut <3

Sky becomes a god after Skyward Sword, but doesn’t directly feel the effects until Zelda passes of old age. He properly takes up the title as god, form changing over time to become more godlike. He now resides in the heavenly realm, a place where he can watch over the world and make sure Fate goes as according to plan.

Sky’s design

He’s represented by eyes, and it is said that he can view through anything that has an eye on it. His cloak can become wings, and if you look long enough the eyes on his outfit may blink. He often uses lightning as a weapon.

Sky looks after Hyrule as it develops, until he Sees the events of Four Swords and recognises the power of a potential god.

Unlike Sky, Four becomes a god after his passing. He appears in the heavenly realm? And is shocked to be meeting THE god of Fate himself. Four is like a faun but with the lower half of a minish because they represent his domain the best. He can split into the colours who still need to design but they all look similar.

They look after Hyrule together until the events of OOT, when the timeline splits. This causes some issues, and Four and Sky have to try to deal with the time travel without disrupting the fabric of the universe, so they seperate the timeline into three sections, the smallest amount they can. This drains the both of them and they fade into myths.

Over time they will regain power, occasionally assisting the new heroes without them noticing. Four will place good items for them to find, while Sky will make sure their story ends well. The downfall timeline is the hardest to affect, because it was never meant to happen.

Then the war of eras happens.

The dramatic re-merging of the timelines causes the two to become major players in the story again, possibly even appearing in Warriors battles? (Im coming up with this on the spot okay, don’t judge).

Once that is finished, they don’t fade into legend again. Their stories are passed down and they become almost worshipped.

Time takes its course and we get to pre-BOTW. Calamity Ganon was not supposed to rise that early. He broke the laws of fate itself, which causes Sky to have a panic because wtf??? That’s not supposed to happen???

Four does his best to aid the hero while Sky is out of commission, and helps Zelda unlock her powers. He uses his magic to help heal the hero while he’s asleep in the shrine. BOTW happens, Four and Sky calls upon Fate to make sure Ganon does not rise again once Link has defeated him. That’s the end of the timeline. Sky and Four, thinking they’re done, finally let themselves rest. Hylia (because she still exists despite doing nothing to help the two), decides that she should ignore Fate and bring all the heroes together, including the two that are currently gods. When she pulls them all together, Sky and Four are very confused to wake up as mortal hylians again, and don’t even recognise eachother at first. They travel with the Chain, knowing a lot more than they let on. Eventually it gets revealed that they’re gods.

Don’t really know where I’ll go with this but feel free to use this because I know I’ll likely never touch it again

I saw a comic that had four splitting into the colours as ‘magical girl transformation’ and I ran with it.

Anyways here’s a crack au with the colours as magical girls because I’m bored

More under the cut <3

Blue (They/he/she)

Symbol: Triangle

Represents: Anger

Weapon: Hammer

Does not enjoy this (the hammer is fun though)

Green! (He/they)

Symbol: Circle

Represents: Peace

Weapon: Sword

The one that looks most similar to normal Four. He actually doesn’t mind the costume change, just finds it isn’t the most practical.

Red <3 (Any)

Symbol: Heart

Represents: Love!

Weapon: Bow!

Their favourite part of the outfit is their buns, but all the little bows are also adorable >:3

Vio (They/she)

Symbol: Star

Represents: Wisdom

Weapon: Magic

They do not like the ponytails. Tried to chop them off but they came back the next time Four split. Absolutely devours in those heels though.

AU extra notes that I don’t know where else to put:

It’s a result of Four getting cursed or something

He does not want the others knowing.

Probably gets revealed because the gang is fighting something and the group gets overpowered so Four is like ‘oh damn guess it’s time to get magical’

Yuh that’s it let me know if you want more :3

Edit: I JUST NOTICED I MISSED COLOURING THE LINEART ON VIOS HAIR 😭😭😭

From an Lu weekly prompt, I bring to you… MAIL SHENANIGANS!!

I guess this could also be called.. “From one place to another, a postman’s job is never complete” as the actual title of it.

My Fic Masterlist

"Here, can you please deliver this message to Link?" The young princess (or not princess- this is before that time) asked.

"Of course, you can count on me."

"Here, a letter to my grandson, Link." The old smith handed him a carefully wrapped letter.

The postman tucked it carefully into his bag.

"Oh- and before you go. Take this. You might be safer."

He handed him a knife of sharpened metal, clearly well made.

The postman blinked at the large box the women who lived on the ranch gave him.

"Give this to Link please, oh! and before I forget- Here. Take this for all of your hard work."

The postman smiled at the gift.

"Hey- you! I am in need of your assistance!" A voice called out to the postman.

The postman turned his head, being greeted with a hylian dressed in a purple bunny suit.

"First of all- I have a letter to Mr Sir Hero, or also goes by Link. Secondly, will you care for some of my wares?"

Needless to say, the postman did not buy a single thing- He was far too broke already.

"Here, could you give this to Link, my friend?" A raspy voice asked.

The postman nodded, taking the letter given to him. The old man smiled gently at him.

"Thank you." he whispered.

"Hey, I was told you can bring letters to Link while he's on his adventure with his extended family! Could you bring ours?"

Children crowded around him, holding aloft letters to him.

"Yeah- I can."

The postman blinked at his predicament.

A huge stack of letters sat beside him, and a bowl of soup sat in front of him.

"Eat more dear, you must be famished from your adventure!" the old lady poured him some water.

The girl only added more letters to the pile.

"Please, take this letter to General Link, or just Link. He is currently on an adventure. I've been told you can deliver this to him?"

The postman nodded, taking the letter from the queen.

The queen smiled, her armor clanking as she strolled away.

"Let me guess- a letter to Link?"

"You know it! Wait- how did you know that?"

The postman smiled at the beetle backpack merchant.

"I have a keen sort of eye, one could say."

"Here, I have letters for Link, Link, Link, Mr Hero Sir or Link, Link, Link, Link, General Link and Link."

"Mr hero sir?" muttered the one with the blue scarf.

"Don't ask about it, 'General Link'."

"Jeez- touchy much?"

"Here- payment for all of your hard work."

A mailman's job is never over. I will continue to bring letters no matter what.

He shivered at the cold breeze that swept through the mountains.

Finding the house, he walked up and knocked.

There was some rustling, but soon a middle-aged man appeared, peering at the postman carefully.

"And to whom shall I grant the pleasure to?"

"I have a letter for someone who lives here. Who goes by the name of... Link?"

"That would be me."

EXTRA BONUS

"Hello! I have some boxes and letters to the Goddess Hylia?"

"Yes- that is me."

"So, all of these boxes and letters are from the nine Links."

"Ah- which letter or box did the one who wears no pants give you?"

"This box right here."

"Okay then- not going to open that. Thank you for all you have done."

"It was my pleasure. After all, that's what we angels do, we live to bring joy and happiness. We live to serve."

He was enveloped with a warm hug.

"You truly work too much."

Kinda modern au?

Legend: What have you done?

Four nervous: I moved all the furniture slightly to the right.

Legend: go sit on the timeout chair!

Four: falls off

Legend: leans back, and he too falls onto the floor.

Warriors: laughing, then also falls on the floor

Hyrule who just walked in: ...

*Kinda modern au*

Legend: Shutup, your mother buys you megablocks instead of legos.

Warriors: You take that back.-

Bonus:

Malon facepalming: You absolute idiots.

*Modern au*

Time: Hello Mcdonalds. I would like to purchase 130 chicken nuggets. Prepare yourselves.

*Future au*

Legend, working at McDonald's: Sorry sir, we don't serve a McFuck here, so either you throw that one slice of pickle out or we're gonna have a McProblem.

*Kind of Modern lu au*

Legend holding up a water bottle: You see this water bottle? The amount of water in there is how much I care.

Wind: There’s no water in there though…

Legend: I know.

The ghost of the Ranch

Main Navigation Center

My Fic Masterlist

A ghost roamed the ranch. Every time Wild would pass it, he could hear the whispering in the breeze, the shifting of the leaves. The talking of the ghost.

The rumor said that the ghost had been there for thousands of years, desperately searching for something, someone. The ghost never attacked him. All it did was watch, listen and spoke to nobody and everybody. The ghost calls for their lost family, eager to finally be reunited again.

Wild never truly understood the spirit, its words were too quiet and its crying sorrow broke his heart. It says that that ghost waits until the day she can be free.

Until the day she reunites with the one called Wild.

Wild knew, sometimes he thought he could hear the ghost cry his name. His name echoing from her lips and spilling onto the ground like a cascade of water. Until it dries and nothing is left.

She calls im sorrow, the folks say, she is cursed and will never leave. Wild walked towards the ranch, and as he slowly approached, he could hear his name spoken.

The ghost turned towards him, her eyes sulkened and her clothes torn and gracefully flowing behind her.

Her hair, once red and blooming, now dry and grey. A plain ring sat on her index finger and her calloused hands now flickering in the light. Shapes, far duller than the ghost, wandered the place. None could be clearly seen, but they turned towards Wild with expressions familar and yet, new. Sometimes, there are other shapes. All glowing blue. Swords gleam in their scabbards and hats on their heads. Some say that they see a triforce piece glowing on their hands

"Wild" The ghost whispered. "Wild you have finally come." She was home.

I just saw the chain work in a restaurant au post and thought what if The Chain is the name of a chain of restaurants making it a chain restaurant and each Link actually works at the branch that’s named as their games and they know of each other but only because it’s become common knowledge that there’s multiple Links in The Chain

Hmmmm. Now I never thought of it like that.

If a Link is in the 'Chain of Restraunts' in the chain of restraunts, what would that make the Link?

Now the bigger question would be what would the respective restraunts be serving?

Another possibility is that they are working in a mall called ‘The chain’ or smth, and that the different links work at separate food stalls in like the food area. Probably with their Zeldas.

*Modern au*

Hyrule: When will Ted himself... Finally show up to the talk?

Wind: The final boss.

Four: You guys do realize that TEDtalks stand for technology, entertainment, and design talks right?

Wild: I will not let Ted hide behind these lies any longer!

*modern au, the chain work in a restaurant*

Rude customer: what can I get here that has no sugar, no carbs and fat free?

Legend: Water.

A Chain of Monsters

Main Navigation Center

My Fic MasterList

Hello! this Linked universe au is by @nebulapaws and its amazing and awesome so I wanted to write about it, but I have no plot ideas so just have a bunch of the links from this au chillin.

If you don't know what this au is, all the links are monsters from myths/legends. nebulapaws knows much more about each monster, but heres the context:

Green is a Harpy, Blue is a selkie, Red is a satyr/fire Fae, Violet is a changeling/were (werewolf?), Shadow is a demon (of the shapeshifting vein), all together Four is a chimera (bird, deer, seal, wolf and Fae.), Twilight is a werewolf, Wars is a kelpie, Wind is a sylph, Sky is a biblically accurate angel, Time is a fallen angel (in this context, I'm assuming when angels fall they lose all the eyes and.... biblical stuff and just a pair of wings is visible. In Time's case, his wings are clipped.), Hyrule is a cervitaur, Legend a pookah, and Wild is a dyriad (or coulde be a naga. In this one tho, I plan on making Wild a dryad, but maybe in the future there could be some with naga Wild.) I have no clue where this could be going, but who knows! So yeah, thats all the info in this fic you really need to know!

Green groaned as his tail scrapped across the dirt. His normally green feathers soaked in mud. Thats going to take so long to get out... he tucked his wings close and ducked under a particuallry low hanging arch as he stumbled through the forest.

"This is not the best portal jump we've had..." Red mumbled, shaking next to him in the crisp air.

"Yeah, worse enough its a full moon. Vio and Twilight are in their were forms. And Vio doesn't have us to help contain him. I also expect him to not want to form Four..." Green trailed off.

"So basically the only way we can catch and stop the rest of the chain from finding out about us is if we catch and somehow contain Vio? But for how long? We can't form Four without Vio and the rest of the group will want to come search for us!"

Green sighed. "I don't know Red. I don't know.."

Time's back ached. He reached his hand to his back, before stopping himself. Lowering his hand again, he sighed as he watched Wild wildly (aha, a pun) wave his hands around and Wind watch in awe.

"Hey, you okay there?" Sky asked, his wings twitching on his back as he blinked at Time. He stiffened, not hearing Sky at all as he came over.

Time nodded. "Yes. I am fine."

Sky frowned. "I can tell your hurting. Can I see the injury. If I bring Hyrule will it help?"

Time shook his head. "I'm afraid that this injury is years old. Nothing we can do now."

"Oh, but still. Maybe we can do something so you're not in pain?" He asked, his wings fluttered behind him as he gently patted his friend's shoulder.

"You can try." Time said, Sky nodded and hopped off, coming back with Hyrule. His hooves nerviously pawing the ground as his pointed deer ears flickered. He tilted his head.

"Where is the injury?" He asked, his fingers fidgeting with his horns on his head.

Time turned around, and gestured towads the back

"Can you remove your armor and shirt real quick?" Hyrule asked and Time nodded, slowly taking off his armor and discarding it in front of him.

Hyrule gasped as Time partly lifted his shirt off. Displaying scars that ran across his entire body. His cold hands gently touched the scars.

"Where did you get this from...?"

"A secret I would rather not tell."

Sky gasped, quietly under his breath. He stared at the scars in shock.

"Seriously Blue? You live in a fish tank??" Shadow laughed, cackled even, as Blue glared at him in return.

"Listen, I like the tank. Its a nice tank." Blue crossed his arms and huffed.

Vio watched them quietly, his horns shifting away as he closed his book to stop his siblings from arguing.

"Hey Legend!" Wild called out, picking up the pookah and grinning. "You wanna commit some crimes?"

"No thank you! I've committed enough in my time." He crossed his hands.

"I want to!" Wind exclaimed, his form flickering slightly in the breeze,

"Of course you do!" Wild laughed at the sylph's antics.

"You all have fun. Now listen, I'm not responsible for whatever you do." Four said without looking up from Time's shield. "Most of all, I swear if you break another sword Wild, we're going to have words." His wings shifted behind him as his antenna things flicked.

Wild nodded.

"Can you let me down now?!"

Warriors ears flicked as he stood in the swamp. He frowned and stared at his hooves as they sunk into the dirt.

"You're looking a little down there." footsteps squished through the swamp behind him.

Warriors turned to see Twilight. He nodded. "Yeah, it just.. instincts. You know?"

Twilight nodded. "Yeah, happens every full moon here."

They stood in silence as crickets started to chirp.
