#LH Gull

[linked-history]

Alright so I was planning on uploading a timeline for awhile now and originally had just written it but then I started doodling the expressions seen in this picture and decided to use those. To explain the fallen timeline is the "True" timeline for my AU which is why it goes to the end as seen. I also tried to label the connections between different characters which are further explained in their Character Reference Links.

As for the red areas behind some of the Links I wanted to make a visual of which points in the timeline are connected through Hyrule Warriors, I'm debating on adding Shade but I'll worry about that later.

Below the cut I have a page of just the expressions which should hopefully be easier to zoom in on as well as the Expressions Meme that I used for reference.

I'm back with bird shenanigans (I'm so sorry) /lh

Penguin wings look so silly to me, and I mean that in the most positive way possible. Mainly because I'm used to view them as some sort of "hands" or replacement for "arms" in silhouettes of certain characters (maybe not the best example but...like PPP from Kemono Friends, I know the "wings" are sleeves but basically like that, it's that shape) so it's kinda strange but cute to see them as back wings and I really like it <3 /pos

Have you thought of any other Go characters' bird types? Just curious, like always (I'm clearly biased towards Go, what can I say? But any other characters from Endou's generation are also fine). Do you think some teams would have certain bird types, for example, Kaio Gakuen being composed of players with water bird wings or something like that? Or would they be more diverse?

Oh and, since you mentioned we can drop ideas I'll humbly leave mines here: the only thing I could think of was Kirino as a dove (I do love the hummingbird version though), either the typical white dove or a key west quail dove, I couldn't choose; and also, I thought of Taiyou as a bird-of-paradise mainly for the colors

hellooo again!!

penguin wings (or flippers, to be accurate) sure feel more like arms than wings, but I guess that's just going to be a part of their oddity in the AU, haha!

I haven't thought much about other teams yet, but I think it'd be fun if there was a general theme for each of them! not a strict rule, as there could be individuals with other vibes, but as a general rule of thumb. as you said, Kaiou would have a water theme, maybe with gulls and such! (I can't decide on characters but there would be a great cormorant, northern gannet, and albatros) Genei could work as corvids, as they're kinda like tricksters? and I can imagine Dragonlink being all white herons, storks, and such.

the key west quail dove would work really well with Kirino!! and yes I'm gonna take that Taiyou pick for myself, and make him a greater bird of paradise! (yes, that's the species name) I think the plumes aren't really part of wings, but I'm keeping them because Taiyou deserves a bit of extra flare!

Ghost for the character ask !! (or Alejandro if Ghost was asked already 👉​👈​)

waaaa thank you for the ask omg (i say scared you're in my inbox /lh)

Neither has been asked yet so ill do both i guess lol (this got very long so im adding a read more, i ramble when im bored whoops)

favourite thing about them

ooo this is hard actually but i think the way ghost just is exactly who he is. As traumatised and as gruff as that man is he just kind of does what he wants for himself. The mask, the gloves, the behaviour, its all just for him. no one else benefit and idk i think theres something to be said about that.

least favourite thing about them

hmmm i dont know. This is more of a fandom nitpick than about ghost but a lot of people i think picture him with a certain body and my gym rat ass self is just there like??? theres no shot he has abs hello?? (is this a personal bias? maybe but shhh) I also do wish we got more of his backstory in the reboots or really any backstory at all.

favourite line

OOO this is hard, part of me wants to pick a dad joke but the first one that came to mind is when Soap is introducing them to ale and rudy and Ghost just goes. "Tha'll do." dont know why. but it is pfft.

brOTP

everyone. Ghost is actually just friendly but standoffish to me. I think he'd make friends easy once they get over the fact that its him. Yes he's a loner but that doesnt mean he's lonely.

OTP

this is so hard oooof. GhostPrice is just so incredible i love their dynamic so much but also Ghoap although the most obvious one is kind of hard to deny hmmm. I will say tho NikPriceGhost is an OT3 ive been toying around with and lets just say i LOVE the potential there. (not so secretly think Ghost is a poly king and is actually able to navigate it well)

nOTP

Ghost with any woman im sorry that is a gay man (to me at least)

random headcanon

He has a really really big sweet tooth that he doesnt tell anyone about. (been thinking about this for ghostprice week hehehe)

unpopular opinion

hmmm i guess i said a few while answering the others lmao

song i associate with them

cirice - ghost. Not because the band name but the lyrics are just so ghost. And freak on a leash - korn for the same reasons OH and undertow - tool

favorite picture of them

i just love his eyes holy shit, brown eyes ghost > blue eyed ghost

favourite thing about them

hes just so loyal. Something about that unwavering loyalty is so cool to see even when he's wrong about something he's just loyal to a fault. good or bad its an interesting thing

least favourite thing about them

i cant think of anything, we dont get to see enough of him for me to think of something

favourite line

and who the fuck do you think you are, cabrón. My men are inside!

brOTP

him and ghost. i think they understand each other in a way thats unexpected but welcomed by both.

OTP

alerudy, like come on. To me not only are they together, i think they're each others first everything kind of relationship, theyve been together longer than theyve been without the other, i think thats the only reason for how they act like the other being there is a given without it being implied to be romantic and instead a deep friendship.

nOTP

him and valeria. i get it as exes or smth but i just dont see it in their interactions sorry 0_0

random headcanon

I think he's secretly a musician or a music nerd. Any kind of music at all, he'll try to learn any instrument he can get his hands on and its not uncommon for him to be singing in his office as he does paperwork.

unpopular opinion

i dont think i have any?

song i associate with them

this is actually really hard so im gonna pick artists as vibes or like his favourites: Haken, karnivool, queens of the stone age, the gulls and the marías for when he wants smth soft (i also think him and rudy dance to ale singing something from any of these artists)

favourite picture of them

widows peak my beloved

[pocketramblr]

Mei Hatsume is another descendant of Doofenshmirtz (and Ferb) (hence her stuff exploding) while David and Melissa Shield are descendents of Phineas!

That's it, I'm getting out the family tree application again when I get home, and when Barid gets mad, I shall blame you!

Cool! I really love Gull’s design. May I ask what happened to his leg? I don’t think I saw it in the description, though I could have missed it.

Next request was Wind Waker/Phantom Hourglass so here is Link nicknamed Gull. I included his Outset Island clothing (which is inspired by clothing seen on villagers in Lurelin village from BotW) as well as his Hero Garb from Wind Waker. I also decided that a few years pass between Wind Waker and Phantom Hourglass so the two designs on the right are his Phantom Hourglass looks during the adventure as well as his final look. Some design choices I made for this design was the inclusion of the wrap around Link's waist in Wind Waker, the idea is that everyone on the island wears one and the color marks family, the beads on the cord that hold the wrap in place marks the members of the family, the darker beads mark the older members while the lighter beads mark the youngest. The shell necklace that link wears is a piece of jewelry left from his mother that he wears and his grandma mentions to pass on to the one who he wishes to ask for marriage. 

BEFORE THE ADVENTURE

Link grew up on the small island of Outset with his younger sister Aryll and their grandmother following the disappearance of their parents small fishing vessel. On the island Link and his sister help their grandma and the other inhabitants with farming and fishing, Link typically acting as a babysitter for the children on the island. Following the traditions of his island on his 10th birthday he is gifted a green garb made in honor of a hero of legend, one called the Hero of Time who wore a similar garment. Despite how uncomfortable the garment may be in the heat of his home island Link wears it with pride and goes to meet with his sister on the lookout spot of the island, where he receives her telescope on lone for the day. It is during this interaction when Aryll and Link watch as a stranger is dropped into the forest on the top of their island by a giant bird.  

DURING THE ADVENTURE

After Aryll was taken in Tetra's place Link gains the family shield from his grandma and joins Tetra's crew to sale to the Forsaken Fortress to save his sister. After the initial attempt fails Link wakes up on WindFall Island and is joined by a talking boat who claims it's name is the King of Red Lions, after an initial period of panic and freaking out Link understand the this boat is willing and able to help him so the two end of sailing the seas helping inhabitants of a number of islands and running into/avoiding Tetra's crew as they work towards and unknown goal. After Link rescues his sister and she is taken to Tetra's ship the two go to face off against Ganon though are overwhelmed and are later saved by the Rito, following the lead of the King of Red Lions Link and Tetra discover the truth and Tetra, now Zelda, is left in hiding within the secret shelter under the sunken remains of the Castle of what remains of Hyrule.  After defeating Ganon and returning Aryll to Outset, Link joins Tetra's crew and explores the rest of the seas, exchanging letters with his sister and grandma regularly. During this time they hear rumors of a ghost ship that follows an impassable wall of fog. They set out to the uncharted seas where the ship/fog are most common to face the ship and it's crew to make the sea safe again. When the mysterious ghost ship finds them Tetra races ahead to fight of the opposing crew. Link and Tetra are separated after a strike of lighting hits the ship and Link is sent into the sea before waking up on a new island and meets Oshus and later Linebeck. With the cowardly captains help Link travels the seas, defeating bosses and saving islands before returning to the ghost ship and saving Tetra. During this journey Link's red coat is destroyed, and he is frustrated as it is destroyed as it was a gift from Tetra.

AFTER THE ADVENTURE

After saving Tetra from the ghost ship she and Link continue their exploration of the sea and looking for new land to rebuild Hyrule on. During this time Link gifts Tetra the shell necklace he wore as a way to express his intentions of forming a deeper relationship with her and they continue on adventure. As they travel the crew gifts Link a new coat, featuring the blue that he wore on his island home of outset as well as the Lobster symbol of the island. Link also shows more of the green that people of the sea associate with the previous hero as he comes to accept his new title following his second adventure.
