    Summary

    There’s a myriad of voices rising and falling in the house behind him, a quiet murmur from stargazers in the field beyond. Wild’s laugh rises with the wind. It’s a bright, wheezing, joyful sound and something in Legend aches distantly. 

    At some point, Time comes out to stand next to him. He’s dressed casually in a home-spun tunic, face relaxed and a smile playing on his mouth as he watches Hyrule roll into Wild in the field, as their giggles fade with the crickets. 

    “What an adventure we’ve had,” Time says lightly— proud, even. His hand comes up to muss Legend’s hair gently. His palm is warm.

    the old man, the veteran, and the end of an adventure

    Summary

    Legend had one job the second time he was dragged on a quest that involved time travel and ancestors, and the second time a quest involved meeting other heroes: Don't get attached.

    Thankfully, the other heroes seemed to believe the mask he wore, and most of them didn't bother with him as a result except to argue, especially Twilight and Warriors. Now, if only someone could tell the kid behind the mask to stop reaching out to the brothers he lost after Hytopia, that would be great.

    And if they could stop the pouring, frigid rain so Legend wouldn't get even sicker, that would also be great.

    Summary

    This day was not going as you had planned.
    It probably was not going as planned for these travellers you had started to follow around either, because there was no way you would stay somewhere full to the brim with monsters alone and unprotected - dream or no dream. And well, some company is better than none.
    Even when they only communicate in "Hya"s.

    Or:
    A modern day person unexpectedly finds themselves thrown into Hyrule, where they run into the Links.

    Summary

    Time and Wind are the first heroes to meet each other, and, to their quiet surprise, they get along extremely well. It's when they run into a third hero that things start to get tense; The Hero of the Wild is airy, detached, and maybe even a little too eager, and even though Wind and Time feel bad about their suspicions, they can't help treating him differently.

    However, Time and Wind quickly realize that Wild's heart is just as golden as everyone claims it is.

    AKA Gang-Meets-Wild but the gang is only Wind and Time

    Summary

    Wild claimed that he had told the other heroes everything there was to know about him. Time wasn't one to pry in other's personal lives-they all had their own trauma, after all-but Time suspected Wild wasn't being completely honest.

    And it was difficult to turn a blind eye when it turns out Wild had assassins after him his entire journey.

    Summary


    The only thing worse than having to listen to the Hero of Time is having to babysit him. And the only thing worse than having to babysit the Hero of Time is having him listen to you.

    In other words, Wind is not having a good time.

    Summary

    Sky has a separate moment with each member of the team;. Bad decisions, fight scenes and deep conversations ensue. In which:

    1. Warrior's Hyrule sucks, Sky makes an interesting decision and Warriors is justifiably frustrated.
    2. There is a thunderstorm, a Guardian and a Lynel, and things go… slightly better than expected, actually.
    3. A vacation begins, and Outset Island's shores are a nice place to get less nice things off your mind.
    4. Being prophetic is far less helpful than it sounds, and Wind is having an unfortunate time.
    5. It's Sky's respiratory system against the world, and Twilight's big brother instincts don't falter against anyone younger than him.
    6. Sky takes his rightful place as most huggable Link, takes notes and finds out new things regarding Four.
    7. There's calm before a storm, and Sky and Hyrule do some rebelling.
    8. The storm arrives, shit goes down, and Time and Sky have a long awaited conversation.
    9. Sky, in the past and present. Everything comes to a long, sixteen-part, twenty-three-thousand word conclusion.

    Summary

    Link looks at the bundle of dirty linen on Ravio’s lap and realises it is not a bundle of dirty lined, but the emaciated body of a kid. The poor thing is so skinny he almost disappears into his own clothes. Link cringes as seeing the gaunt face poking out the ragged travel coat.
    “Great, now dark magic portals are throwing dead corpses in our yard.” He comments sombrely.
    “Uuuuh, Mister Hero? I don’t think it’s a dead corpse…”
    -----
    A portal sends an injured Traveller of Hyrule at Legend and Ravio's house.

    Summary

    "I know it's a bit different," Warriors says. The clanging continues. "But he's still the Legend you know. And you're just about a child yourself. Just go, have a good time - maybe don't bring up any gruesome topics. I know you've been itching to go outside."

    He has. That much is true.

    "Okay," he says, steadying his nerves. This was Legend - not the fabled Hero of Legend, not his predecessor, not someone he looked up to and desperately wanted to impress - it was just Legend, and they were going to pick flowers together. That was easy enough. "I'll see you, then."

    "Don't go too far," Warriors warns.

    Summary

    Calamity Ganon was stronger than anyone had anticipated. Link and Zelda gave their lives to seal him away in the ruins of Hyrule Castle. But an unexpected complication with Mipha's Grace has given Link a corporeal ghost form. Now stuck amongst the living, with one foot in the realm of the dead, he must struggle to figure out what Hylia needs him to do. Luckily, the Champions of Old are there to help him as he strives to restore the kingdom.

    The Second Book of this series will be Linked Universe. This story can be considered a Breath of the Wild fic.

    Summary

    So, maybe Link is irresponsible. Maybe he’s reckless.

    But this is so not his fault!

    Wild tries to navigate the world in a smaller and weaker version of his body. If that isn’t bad enough, several people claiming to be the heroes of the past show up, and won’t believe that he’s actually over one hundred!

    Or,

    Wild is turned into an eight year old before meeting the team, and no one actually believes that he’s a one hundred and seventeen year old. Shenanigans occur.

    Summary

    The Links have been thrown together against their will, and the more time they spend together, the more they learn about one another. Secrets can never remain hidden, after all.

    AKA the series where I say 'what if' then do just that.
