Summary
While already dealing with a faulty Sheikah Slate that’s been using him as a powerhouse since the Sheikah Towers sunk back into the earth, Link has been waking up in a trance-like state in the middle of the night.
A tugging sensation pulls him to the West of Hyrule, prompting him to discover what greater purpose lies beyond his completed heroics. Here, a voice tells him to ‘join them’… but who?
And when he does find them, how is he supposed to easily move with their already established dynamic as the odd man out? How is he supposed to endure such a new change in life?
And here he just wanted to retire peacefully in Hateno Village with Zelda.OR
Wild joins the Chain, then struggles to fit into the dynamic

Summary
After being spat out in the middle of an unknown era, the chain find themselves being directed to Hanteno village where the shopkeepers talk of a boy in blue.

Can the Links of other eras soothe their new brother's sorrows, or will Wild be drowned in guilt and exhaustion to even follow them forwards? -

Summary
Ganon has had millennia to learn to strike when the hero is weakest. When he is unsure. When he is frightened and alone.
This time, Ganon struck 3 days after Link found the Master Sword—at just 12 years old.
The Guardians were corrupted by Malice, the Divine Beasts and their brave Champions fell. So the Age of Burning Fields began while a dead hero lay entombed in the Shrine of Resurrection for a hundred years. Meanwhile, across time, previous Heroes are gathering. Something or someone had called them out of retirement.AKA: the events of Breath of the Wild but the Chain is there and Wild is 12
no part of this work may be used to train AI. None of these characters belong to me.

Summary
"Being resistant to the world did not mean it was extraordinary." - Wild being poetic and angsty. The year? Somewhere, someplace after he killed Ganon Dragon. A few days after the heroes of old showed up at his door, literally.

Summary
When he goes to take a step forward, his leg stalls. It takes him a moment to register the feeling of weight, of something warm and limbed. Recoiling doesn’t dislodge it and Link glances down, cringing, fully expecting some sort of overly large spider or something of the like clinging to him.
It’s a baby.
“What the fuck,” Link says, then immediately claps a hand over his mouth. “I mean. What. Uh.”
mom said its my turn with wild meets chain (he's a feral baby)

Summary
"Huh, a new Link then?"
Your generic chain meets Wild fic (because I can't get enough of them)
Characters are probably all gonna be at least a little bit ooc, but I'll try my best to keep their personalities as cannon as I can

Summary
The Chain goes to find Wild and recruit him in their quest.
Unfortunately Wild had just gone through Tears of the Kingdom, where Zelda has been impersonated one too many times. He's not convinced.
Cue the shenanigans to try and get Wild to even listen to them!
A Linked Universe fic.

Summary
This is just the "Chain Meets Wild" ideas that pop into my head, a bunch of oneshots. I just love the trope and writing more will help me get better at... writing.
I for real just needed to get this out of my daydreams and into not my head. Also, this is completely unedited and just for funsies :P

Summary
“Half a breath later, Link had three arrows nocked on the string and pulled back to his cheek, rough knuckles brushing against his scars. He aimed at the swirling portal beneath him… where a chain of heroes had tumbled to the ground.”
—▲–▲–▲—
A Chain meets Wild fic, except he's a bit more… wild.
This is my excuse to write about Wild being a bad ass with flurry rush powers, Hyrule acting like fae, Wind actually using the Wind Waker during fights, Time being the cryptid he is, and all my other little head canons. Oh, and Spirit is here too because he deserves more love.

Summary
"When the hero woke from his long slumber, he had not aged. His body remained one of a child, and his mind was a blank canvas to be painted with the hues of experience.
He had been a mere 11 years old when the calamity had razed Hyrule to the ground. A great force he could never beat."Or, The chain helps Child Wild grieve and move forward.

Summary
The last thing Link remembered: he went to bed an ordinary 6-year-old in his family home in Castle Town.
He woke up a 6-year-old in a world 112 years older than him, where the Calamity had already hit and then recently been defeated... by himself? He didn't know what happened, or how, or why. Luckily, he had eight heroes with weird nicknames on his side, there to help him figure out and fix whatever was going on, one age at a time—and gradually heal his childhood wounds in the process.
Or: my take on the kid!Wild and Wild-meets-the-Chain tropes, with a bit of a twist in that he is mentally a child as well—memories included.

Wild Meets the Chain (after kicking their asses) by wtfmanhahaha

Summary
Time curses every divine being he knows, as Twilight dashes into battle with the newest Hero, and the Hero reciprocates, nothing but a blue blur as the kid slows time, effortlessly landing hits that no regular hylian could dream of. Hell, this guy is landing hits that no mortal could think of, as he backflips once more, rushing towards the rancher, but never getting the chance to beat Twilight up. Sky and Warriors drag the new kid away, and Twilight is held in place by Time, as his firm hand clamps down on Twi’s shoulder. He's breathing heavily, a small stream of blood flowing from his nose.

everyone gets wrecked by wild

Summary
"His foot splashed in the puddles of clear water, little droplets falling on light green leaves. Link was in the middle of a forest, with a little bounce in his steps and a smile to his lips.
It was such a warm and radiant thing to look at, all people in Hyrule would told you that Link looked charming with a smile."Or, Wild, after two adventures, didn't want to go on a third one.

Summary
“Time? I’m sorry, oh Gods, we gotta get you outta the snow. Some uh’ the others are tarpin’ up a little alcove we found. Can you move?”
Time considers it for a moment. He wants to say yes, absolutely, everything is fine. He wants to pretend like the numbness creeping through his extremities isn’t worrying at all. The pain flaring up and down his arm and crossing his rib cage like small little jolts of lightning building up in his bones? Nothing to be concerned about.
It would all be delicious little lies, of course, and as tempting as they would taste, he can’t help but feel they’d turn to ash the moment he tried to prove any of it. And then Twilight would give him that look of his. All wide eyes and fear, laced within an unamused glare.
The chain finds themselves in a new Hyrule, only to be caught off guard when their new Link has a few extra extremities.

Summary
"This is hell, we've landed in hell," Legend deadpanned.
Or: Twilight recognizes this Hyrule as soon as they land in the Depths. And... they really can't afford to wait until they stumble across his pup before they figure out what's what, actually.
Still, he was really hoping Hylia had the good grace to leave Wild out of this. Apparently not.

Summary
The Ancient Sheikha were far from stupid. So, when they were digging into the Zonai and found a glowing stone with the capacity to power three divine beasts alone, they naturally sent it to their biggest project. While attempting to figure out how to draw power from it, they accidentally melted it down. Prompting some new ideas, some far for experimental than others. However, they ultimately decided to backtrack and restored the stone to its original form. When the Shrine of Resurrection was completed, the Sheikha added an emergency protocol. Should it ever be the case where the shrine was failing to bring back either Hylia’s hero or her descendant, the shrine would melt down its power source and inject it into them. After all, that amount of power should bring anyone back if it doesn’t kill them, but those chosen by Hylia or related to her should be more than able to handle it without repercussions.
Oh how wrong they were.

Summary
“That kid is going to have us all wrapped around his finger, isn’t he?” Twilight asked, a somewhat exasperated expression on his face despite the warmth in his gaze.
Time smiled softly, glancing over to the newcomer and the traveler, who were still excitedly chirping to each other over the flowers. “Yes, I believe you’re right.”
or, in which wild meets the gang, and immediately learns what being loved feels like
