    Summary

    "A single thread in a tapestry, though its colour brightly shines, can never see its purpose in the pattern of the grand design..."

    For millennia, the Hero of Legend and Princess of Destiny have been bound together by fate. It's simple math, then, that putting them together as soon as possible will increase the odds of victory. Zelda doesn't care: it doesn't matter if this "Hero" will help her unlock her powers, she doesn't want him in her life! Especially not forever!

    The Zelink Arranged Marriage AU we all need.

    Summary

    In nearly every way (except the most notable), the Princess of Hyrule was the Goddess incarnate. For that reason alone, it was a little ingenious for the King to offer up his daughter’s hand to whoever was able to pull the sword.

    Link hadn’t meant to pull the sword. He planned to watch as his comrades pulled with all their might, perhaps even tease a few about how it was all for the better that the sword didn’t budge, because surely no Princess could ever love their ugly mugs, and then get into a good old-fashioned wrestling match with their bruised egos after one too many jokes. But it hadn’t mattered what he had in mind; Link’s plans be damned. The Goddess had already plucked him out of obscurity and set him along Her own path.

    Summary

    Link was 17 when he "stole" the Master Sword. Now, he has been labeled a fugitive and left with nothing. Seeking some more information on his supposed partner against the Calamity (and maybe a little revenge against the king that declared him a fugitive), Link launches a series of heists on Hyrule Castle. These quickly spiral as his curiosity about Princess Zelda becomes something more, dragging both of them into an unpredictable series of adventures.

    There will be angst, there will be Rhoam Shade, there will be koroks helping with heists, and by Hylia there will be Zelink.

    Summary

    Zelda has convinced everyone that she is under no circumstances attending the three nights of the masquerade ball. This means she has complete anonymity when she arrives. Complete anonymity, except for her annoying personal guard, who spots her immediately. He just better not disrupt her flirting.

    Summary

    “I haven’t…” she starts, watches his blue eyes narrowed in concern and it’s distracting, everything’s distracting. “I haven’t had a body in a hundred years,” Zelda manages, and shrugs one shoulder, as if to say what can you do? “I was Hylia, mostly, and a little bit me, but I wasn’t a person. I was the sun and the wind and the water and the dirt and I was in a prison and I was the prison. I feel like I’m blindfolded, now, without that sense of the world, but also everything is so bright and loud and close and I hardly know how I’m managing to speak to you when my skin is feeling wind for the first time in a century. It’s…” she trails off, her words failing her, which is infuriating because she’s a scholar, she’s good at words. “It’s a lot,” she finishes awkwardly, for lack of anything better to say.

    Or: Learning to be a person again, after the end.

    Summary

    It turns out that the death of the Calamity doesn't prevent more things from falling apart.

    A year after the fall of Calamity Ganon, eighteen year old Link goes back in time to before the end of the world, before the fall of Hyrule, before he ever even drew his sword, and starts to fix things before they can go wrong. It takes a while before he realizes he might be able to regain pieces of himself, too.

    Summary

    The ringing note of a concert A is played by the oboe, echoing on its own in the space. It’s picked up by the wind section, followed rapidly by the brass, and the familiar feeling of an orchestra calibrating takes over Caleb. The tonal adjustments as each person brings their instrument into alignment sinks into him and something inside Caleb shifts in recognition as Essek leads the strings into their own tuning.

    It’s like something is waking up, like something unfurling and firing across long-unused paths of memory. His hands shake slightly, as he raises his bow and joins them, fingers fumbling against the pegs and fine tuners that give him control over his instrument.

    ----

    Essek Thelyss is a leading violinist, his spot as Shadowhand of the Rosohna Philharmonic Orchestra has been uncontested for over a decade. Caleb Widogast is a recent arrival to the city, convinced by his friends to audition for one of the vacant violinist positions.

    After starting off on the wrong foot, Caleb and Essek get to slowly know each other, discover what brings them joy, create while defying expectations, and find out that what they can produce together may just be better than anything they can do separately.

    Summary

    Most people who were unlucky enough to meet Jonathan Sims assumed he had no friends. This was true, up to a point two months after Jon became a researcher at the Magnus Institute: afterwards Jon had no friends, except for Sasha James.

    In which Timothy Stoker is attributable to a fake dating scheme, Gerry Keay is attributable to witchcraft, Martin Blackwood is attributable to an ill-advised crush, and Daisy Tonner is attributable to soulmates.

    And in which Sasha James is attributable to arson.

    Summary

    I wanted to write a fic about what happened just after #92 Nothing besides remains. Jon is pretty messed up by the end of this episode, his hand was recently burned, he gets tortured by Mike Crew, he get’s dragged out into the woods by Daisy were he witnesses Mike being killed and is nearly killed himself. He has a cut on his throat and was made to dig a grave for Mike, which can’t have been great for his burned hand. Then he has a really intense confrontation with Elias who confirms he is becoming an avatar. So he must be in pretty rough shape all round. Georgie later says he looks like the end of Die Hard. I just want him to have some care and love. And I made him get sick too because of who I am as a person...

    “It’s a preexisting condition,” Jon explains, sipping more bitter tea. “I sort of got—hm. You know Spiderman?”

    Tim raises an eyebrow.

    “Heard of him, yeah.”

    Jon nods, studying his tea.

    “It’s sort of like that,” he says. “A spider killed and ate me when I was a child, and now I can’t stay dead.”

    Summary

    It was easier to treat Jon like a monster when he wasn’t shivering against his back, brokenly humming—wait, was that…

    “Are you trying to do ‘Hey, Jude’?” Tim demanded.

    Jon stopped, stiffening. “Mm hrmh mm mmh hm,” he said defensively.

    “You really can’t hold a tune, can you, boss?”

    *

    It was just an ordinary walk to a restaurant. Tim had insisted that if they were going to talk, there would be no tape recorders or weird Archives ghosts listening in. A bit of fresh air wouldn’t kill him, Tim had said. What could go wrong?

    By the time Jon spots the white delivery van, it’s much too late.

    The Stranger kidnaps Jon. Tim comes along for the ride.
