Summary
In a world of gods and guardians, it would be expected that some would fall for mortals, and inevitable in such cases that demigods would result.
Killer and Cross are two such beings, half god and half mortal. With abilities mortals shouldn't have, but also not quite as durable as full deities, they reside somewhere in the middle, and unfortunately certain people would take advantage of that. Without parents around who would protect them, they must fend for themselves as they run to escape the prison they were trapped in, and this was how they ended up inside a tentacled skeleton's mansion without knowing what they were getting into. While the brothers now must figure out who they can trust, Nightmare and his friends have to discover these two teenagers' past before what or whoever they are running from finds and drags them back into their personal hell.
Hopefully these two can warm up to the guardians and gods despite what they've been told...

Summary
Lark came to the aquarium as a pup. He didn't know who or what he was before his life here in captivity. In his blissful ignorance he grew among the humans that cared for him, the crowds that came to see him. Being a lesser siren, his songs soothed rather than tempted, his instincts not strong enough to produce more than ease and healing upon those who heard him.
It's what had made him so popular.
His tank was open to the air, shallow near the glass where humans of all ages would stand waiting to hear him. Waiting to get splashed on the outside portion of his enclosure. On the inside, it was sealed and sound proof, his songs reserved for those who paid the most to get outside. He didn't mind it. The extra profits meant extra food for him, and good quality water. Or that was his limited understanding of how things worked in his very small world.
Small but comfortable. Till everything changed.

Summary
To bridge the divide between Hyrule and the Gerudo, Zelda launches the Letters of Unity Initiative – a correspondence program meant to foster understanding. She never expects to become captivated by an anonymous and infuriatingly clever "voice from the desert" who challenges her in ways no one else dares.
Ganondorf joins the initiative to spite Hyrule and mock the fool who dares write to him. But instead of a dull-witted scribe, his mysterious correspondent is sharp-tongued and insightful, drawing him into an irresistible battle of wits.
While Zelda and Ganondorf become bitter rivals, clashing in an escalating war of aggravation, neither suspects that the adversary they cannot stand is the same person whose letters they secretly cherish. But as their words draw them closer, hiding the truth becomes harder, especially when Ganondorf realizes he’s falling for two women at once: the fiery princess who refuses to yield and the stranger who knows his heart better than anyone.
When an ancient enemy stirs in the shadows, threatening the fragile peace they’ve fought to protect, the bond they’ve forged in secret may be the only thing strong enough to save their world – if they don’t tear each other apart, first.
