    Summary

     

    Time was there for them. He always was. Long ago, he had stepped in willingly as their parental figure, and ever since then, he had promised his boys that they were always allowed to be comforted, valued, and happy. And no matter how much of a struggle it was to convince them to love, Time won't ever give up. Not on himself, not on his boys.

    Summary

    “Hey, there you are,” Time’s voice sounds calmly from behind him. Wild doesn’t glance back to look at him nor move at all but as Time walks over to the spot next to him, he doesn’t protest the older hero’s presence and instead simply lets out a quiet breath, Time taking that as the permission it is to settle down next to him on the hill.

    Time gives him a moment more of silence, the two of them just spending time in the presence of nature, before he asks “Was it a memory?” Wild shakes his head ever so slightly, but luckily Time sees it and lets out a quiet hum of acknowledgment. “Do you want to talk about it?”

    Summary

    The complete collection of all of the times Legend has had to pretend to be a mother/wife to a brother in order to save their asses. Or just when his little brothers pretend to be his kids, because they're the sort of gremlins who do that sort of thing >:)

    Summary

    Warriors woke up and immediately realized he was sick. He needed to stay away from everyone, he couldn't risk getting anyone else ill, but Time refuses to let him suffer alone. He's more than used to putting up with the captain's habit of self isolation, and he's not willing to risk Warriors getting worse because he refuses to let himself be cared for.

    or

    Time essentially bullies Warriors into letting him take care of him

    Summary

    It is, in Time's experience, impossible to be a hero and come away without some new traumas and fears. If he could know everything his pack fears, he would do his best to protect them. However, not only does he not know, but he's also often very much helpless.

    Summary

    Wild never enjoyed large gatherings, but it only got worse after his quest.

    The Hyrule that he remembered clearly didn’t have very many people. At least, not in comparison to the versions of Hyrule he had seen in his time with the chain. The largest town, Hateno, occasionally felt a bit crowded but even then Wild never felt the way that he felt right now.

     

    orr......Wild is forced to attend an event that ends very poorly que Time dad.

    Summary

    The newest member of the ragtag group of heroes throughout the ages literally falls from the sky in front of them.

    It doesn't take long for them to realize that he's not a fighter like the rest of them, at least not anymore. And that's ignoring the fact that he's a shy nervous wreck who clearly isn't used to being around nine other heroes with questionable social skills.

    (AU where Wild is the last to join the Chain and he's not a swordsman like everyone else, but is instead a sorcerer because his chronic pain meant he couldn't fight with an actual sword anymore. He's got a lot of healing to go through with that, and the Chain will help him because he's one of them, even if a sorcerer Link wasn't what they were expecting.)

    Summary

    Link almost gets pulled through a portal but for one reason or another it closes before he goes through it.

    AKA: Dark Link impersonates Legend except it’s all from Legend’s POV so he is very confused when a group of blond weirdos try to kill him

    Summary

    Link shivered beneath a blanket, arms huddled in close to this chest. He was half sure he was dreaming. His head ached, heavy like an overstuffed turkey. The green glow did not help. Hylian faces looked alien in this light, escaping the grasp of familiarity. He watched them for a moment longer, hoping the old man would be there among them. Then, self-pitying in his failure to find him, he let his head loll back against the pillow with a groan.

    The pillow that shifted beneath him, to his mild alarm. A rumble of laughter met his ears, vibrating against his skin.

    “Had a good nap?” came the old man’s voice, soft and amused.

    Oh. There he was.

    -

    Or, a storm rages outside a cave where nine brothers huddle for shelter.

    Summary

    Legend was not the kindest Link, he was sharp and he was not afraid to snap at anyone for any reason. This causes some problems between him and Twilight.

    Legend honestly is just bad at talking to people, so when his inability to be nice when trying to tell someone to take some personal regard for their safety (at least from his perspective) is called out, he decides to fall back on some old, fairly unhealthy coping mechanisms: specifically, silence.

    Summary

    Things change. Adjusting is hard. Surrounded by them all, Wild isn't sure what it means to be part of The Chain. He's less sure what it means to be Link.
