Summary
(New/Updated!)
It’s been a year since they left Wild.
It’s been six years and four months since Wild had last seen his brothers. Wild had counted the days, tallying them on the tree next to his house, until his life is flipped upside down when his adventure started. Time seemed to slow down and speed up, days turning into nights as he worked to find Flora, but never did the back of his mind leave the topic of his brothers… and now that he has them back, he makes no means to ever let them get hurt again.
(Or: Wild gets double cursed and doesn’t tell anyone. Nobody is happy about this)

Summary
When Time’s elite pack raids a Yiga hideout, they're ready for combat, magic, even Majora’s twisted mind games—but not for the traumatized omega left behind. Malnourished, defensive, and heartbreakingly unable to offer any name other than his dynamic—"Omega"—he earns the nickname "Wild" for his wary, feral demeanor.
Wild remembers little beyond captivity. His past is fragmented and uncertain, but slowly he's beginning to trust the pack’s steady promises of safety. Just as he starts to accept it might be real, the pack discovers exactly who they've rescued: Link, Twilight's childhood friend who he hasn't been able to find for nearly ten years.
Now Wild is caught in the crossfire of political tensions, a monarchy teetering on the brink, and an ancient magical threat quietly rising beneath Hyrule. Wild never asked to be anyone’s symbol, weapon, or pawn—but both enemies and allies are determined to use him. Finding safety was difficult enough; believing he deserves it might be even harder.

Summary
On his lap sat Wild, who with watery eyes, stared pleadingly up towards Time.
"What is it, little one?" He bounced his leg a little, smiling when Wild laughed behind his hands.
"Bored." He mumbled petulantly, his eyebrows creasing slightly.
"Are you now?" Time huffed in endearment. It wasn't very often that Wild asked for something.
Twilight's ears perked up.
"I… I know something we can do." Twilight said, his face a deep crimson. Both looked over at the boy in surprise. "Um… If you want to, I-I mean." He began kneading his fingers on his lap.
Wild looked up again at Time, this time expectantly. "Okay." The boy's voice was barely over a whisper, hidden behind the sleeve he began to chew.

Wild learns what it's like to be part of a family.

Summary
“I’m in a time loop,” Link calmly and quietly starts. Not calmly Twilight realizes, Link’s mind recoils at the mere mention of it. However, some part of him is so innately exhausted that it’s numb at the concept. “Upon either my own death or Gannon's I return in time. Over time the curse has strengthened, making the time loops more and more unhinged. The circumstances of my awakening are different every time, but are rarely fortunate. No one’s been able to so much as notice the curse, but I think it’s safe to say it’s evolved to carry a very potent curse of misfortune. There’s more to the curse, but it’s powerful and inconsistent enough it’s hard to pin down with a simple name.”
“A time loop? Like the Hero of Time?” Twilight asks, stunned. It explains Link’s vague words earlier and the aged sense to his mind. It must be far more than just taxing on the mind. No wonder he was so distraught earlier. He’s been -
Twilight projects as much serenity and support he can before he asks, “How long have you been in it?”
Link looks to the side, pained but also achingly shamed. “Long time.”

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
When the Calamity struck, the world seemed to have ended. 100 years later… well, the world still looks like shit, but it’s getting somewhat better.
Aryll has managed to bargain with the Deku Tree to remain a protector of the Hero, binding her body and soul to remain tethered and ageless until the Calamity is vanquished. If she knew he’d take his sweet time waking from his power nap, she would have thought about this a few seconds longer. Suffice it to say that when he eventually did wake up, she was relieved, shocked, and had a hundred year old bone to pick.
AKA: What if Aryll survived the Calamity, struck a deal with the Deku Tree, and lived to help Wild/botw Link with his journey? Also, a crazy looking wolf wants to be friends with them.

“It's strange isn't it?” Mipha said. “ He is finally able to be so open yet he still does not speak.”
Revali scoffed though you could hear the slight undertone of concern in his voice. “ He probably thinks he's too good to actually speak to us”
“It is strange you would think that without all those mental barriers that our little Voe has up he would be more inclined to speak.”
Mipha looked worried.” when he was younger he used to be such a chatter box when ever he would visit”Series

Summary
Warriors didn't like that. He didn't like how Time knew everything, how Time was always there to help him. For once, Warriors wanted to suffer on his own, by his own hands. Time didn't need to know. Warriors didn't want Time to know.
Because if Time knew, then not only would he want to help Warriors, but also stop him. If Time knew, then Warriors was going to have his blade taken away, have his bleeding, gaping wounds get lovingly wrapped and covered to heal. And even worse, Time was going to hold him through it all. He was going to caress Warriors' frail hands, bring them up, and kiss them. He would have tears in his eyes, Time's voice would fail him as he would promise Warriors over and over again, just how loved he is. That he doesn't ever need to fall to this, and that Warriors is safe here. Warriors could already see that happening. He doesn't want that. He doesn't want his pity.
OR
Warriors comes to a realization.
