    Summary

    Shadow whimpered, suddenly unable to move.

    "S-Stop it, you idiot, you're scaring me.."

    His Hand found Four's squeezing it tightly, "You're really, really scaring me.."

    Four shook his head gently, the smile on his face softening.

    “Twi is coming…” he whispered hoarsely, “I-.. I-I know it”

    His other hand loosened slightly around Wild’s when he lost the strength to maintain it. The scarred teen frowned in his sleep, eyes still closed, hand twitching in a vain attempt to tighten the hold again.

    “’s…’s okay… Twi’s coming” Four slurred again, his head dangerously tipping forward. Shadow caught it in his hands, smoothing the hair out of his face with his thumbs frantically.

    “Nonono, Link, Link- please..”

    ---

    When the group lands rather roughly in a new Hyrule unfamiliar to each of them things swiftly begin to go south. But amidst hordes of monsters, a mysterious eerie little town put under a strange curse and the cold loneliness of the night each other might be all they need to survive.

    And possibly a few potions as well.

    Summary

    Sky has only just figured out that Ganon is the manifestation of Demise's curse when he starts noticing... something working its way up the chain. Nobody is okay, Sky least of all, but he’s determined to figure out what’s going on or die trying.

    He has no idea what he’s getting himself into.

    This is a story of pain, fear, loss, and somehow, despite it all, courage.

    Summary

    A hum of an old engine in distress fills the air as a dark lowrider pulls up in front of the rows of storage units. The beater pull to a jerking stop in front of his garage unit. The brakes lurch unhappily and Four cringes at the sound of the wheels. The whole car vibrates unhealthily before coming to a stop as the engine cuts out.

    The window rolls down with a squeak and Shadow pops his head out, arm leaning out of the opening. He's got dark sunglasses and the hood of his jacket pulled up to protect him from the midday sun.

    "So?" Shadow asks, smirk pulling at his lips, "What do you think?"

    Summary

    When Shadow woke up, face pressed against rough stone brick, he immediately knew there were three things distinctly wrong with the situation.

    First of all, last he recalled, he was supposed to be dead.

    or, Shadow is brought back into the world of light, and it's time to play villain again. Great.

    Summary

    This is inspired by St0rmy's HSH/Townhouse AU but my own twist and spins on it. I've added my own OC and also added Wild and Champion as two different people and identical twins. Like with all my works, if you don't like anything about this then don't read.

    Summary

    First and foremost there is the texture difference. Four has never considered how his hands feel thanks to his work. Twelve hours a day of manual labor has made his hands thick and calloused, with a firm grip and short nails. Completely different than the softer, more delicate ones that hold him now.

    ----

    OR, Four and Shadow have a little one-on-one time. It's not nearly as sexy as it sounds.

    Summary

    Cold nights always brought misfortune to Wind and Four. The Chain was about to figure out what that means. Some stories would rather not be told but some need to be said.

    Summary

    Whumptober 2022! Linked Universe boys will be hurt. A lot. Warnings will be given at the start of each chapter.

    Latest chapter: "Why did you save me?" (Twilight and Shadow)
    The magical burn on Twilight’s side ached profusely, especially as he awkwardly dropped into a seated position with his back against a tree trunk. It would take some serious magic to clean those up, but at least he wasn’t bleeding. The wizzrobe’s corpse was quickly dissolving into magical dregs nearby, and he paid it no mind.

    Summary

    Vio goes on a walk with a man after a child approaches the group, they come back alone. Then Shadow disappears for a few moments, after which they head to the guard station.

    Updated: 8/10/24

    Vio kills a pedophile off screen. That's the story. You can skip this, and you just need to know that Vio kills pedophiles, and this wouldn't be the only time this occurs in this series. The end notes do describe each heroes opinions on the use of the death sentence but that isn't critical information to know.

    Summary

    He is lost, swirling in a sea of failure.

    He is cursed, an ill omen, a harbinger of ruin to come.

    He is the byproduct of mistake after mistake, the accidental and unprecedented destruction of legends told for centuries.

    He is not light and not dark and all churning, uneven gray and faded black, the faint flickers of the moments after twilight consumes the sky, encapsulated into a soul.

    He is forsaken by every side in the accursed cycle, accepted by none and unwilling savior to all.

    He is all that is left, and he was not in the first place.

    He is Shadow, and he can only pray that his mistakes will not be the end of Hyrule.

    - - -

    A two shot, and then whatever I string together after in coherency. There's a story in there somewhere, I'm sure!

    - - -

    The major character death is in the first chapter, and it is exactly who you think it is.

    Summary

    PLEASE READ TAGS FOR TRIGGER WARNINGS. Discussion of dark topics and themes throughout the work.

    Wylde used to be a normal teen. A junior in highschool, an athlete looking forward to attending prom with his girlfriend. After the shooting, he’s not only lost his memory, but struggling with PTSD, anxiety, and depression. Will his service dog Wolfie, his therapist Time, and his new group of friends be enough to get him through this?

    Twilight had been looking for Midna for months. He was nearly certain she had been kidnapped. He had to find her, the only problem was, he had been thrown a little off course on this quest to save his girlfriend, and well, it looked to him like he now had someone else to save too.
