#LU Flora

[mirensiart]

redrawing the champions’ photo was hell, I never want to draw a rito ever again 🫠

(anyway, lyrics from this)

[linderosse]

Every Zelda has a favorite Link (excluding their own). Flora’s is Four :)

Where Are You? (LU x TOTK AU Comic)

“Hours later, when the ground began to shake and rubble fell from the sky as they rushed outside to watch Hyrule Castle rising off the ground, malice flooding out of every crack in the land, and one of their members declared missing in the aftermath, Twilight found himself desperately wishing he had pushed a little harder.” — CubanCracker62. “Dark Clouds on the Horizon.” Archiveofourown.org, 11 June 2023, archiveofourown.org/works/47814853. Accessed 20 Jan. 2024.

The making of this comic and story was very heavily inspired by CubanCracker62 on AO3 and their Tumblr @wizard-finix , I highly recommend that you check out their story on AO3, send them your support and kudos, and boost their “The Chain in TOTK” and “Linked Universe fics” series!

This comic in itself was a one-by-one project that I worked on when I could find the time for it. So if you notice how my style changes on each page, it was from weeks to a month or so of improvements in my skills (which I’m highly proud of!).

Tetra messing with the new girl. A parody of the scene from the spongebob viking episode.

A little comic I made if the Zelda from echoes of wisdom turns out to be a completely new Zelda. I know there is a high possibility that she would just be Fable but, can you imagine if she's a whole new Zelda? We're getting a new pair joining LU the party ya'll!

Also Since EoW!Zelda is new, she doesn't know that they all have nicknames for each other yet so, Tetra tries to mess with a little bit, Dot is in on the action while the rest just watches lol, but eventually, EoW!Zelda will be told about the nicknames and gets her own as well (idk what she's going to be called, i'll just roll with what ya'll decide).

I've been binge reading the LU comics lately and i'm OBSSESSED and as well the Wisdomverse comics by @linderosse I love the idea of all the different versions of Links and Zelda in a huge crossover AU 💖 and I can't wait for echoes of wisdom to be release!

Happy Fan Joy July, Oma!!!

Oma, thank you so so much for making Fan Joy July and sharing it with us! Our fandom, our artists, writers, readers, etc have loved seeing or taking part in this crazy challenge.

This is our gift to thank you- from artists all around who were affected by, or got gifts from, or took part in Fan Joy July. We all love you so much- so we made letters/art for this (Zelda themed!). Many said that they had already wanted to make/write you something, and this gave an opportunity.

One of the things I've loved about this month is how community/interaction centered you made it. The challenge was for yourself to make art each day (you absolute maniac /affectionate)- but then others joined. This July we saw or made art or fics with recommendations. Every day you made art for a writer with a scene from one of their fics, and inspired others to do the same, and writers even wrote every day for an artist based off an art piece they made! This led to a month of gift giving- everyone interacting and getting love for creating.

You truly led to a month of Joy for a lot of loz/lu fans- making the name "Fan Joy July" quite accurate

Thank you, Oma

Thank you for the gifts you gave all of us and the way you inspire others

Additional ramblings and art credits below the cut :P

I'm so grateful to all my artists who stepped up so we could do this when I asked- almost 36 hours and 19 artists. The art is like patchwork, with all these different styles, both traditional and digital put together. But that's exactly what happened- we all got drawn together, just like the other month-long challenges. It's so cool how art always connects people.

The artists who participated are @zolanort @la-sera @nancyheart11 @galenfeadraws @shade-pup-cub @arecaceae175 @isasan347 @ghosthoard @smilesrobotlover @unexpectedstormy @skyloftian-nutcase @knight-of-aether @uniquevoidflowers @jinxedruby @windwakingwhale @skyward-floored @xaeorian @blarefordaglare and me Thank you to all of you- You are all so cool and I'm glad! If I accidentally missed tagging or listing someone please let me know I'm so scared of if that happened djskdjdkd

There are letters based off of the colours/theme of each of the Lu boys- it's mainly Zelda and linkeduniverse themed... but we couldn't not have frogs for Oma! I did a frog, his name is Froggy and I'm very proud.

Here's a picture with a list of who did what-

Normally I would apologise for my handwriting, but you guys would just tell me it looks good anyways and honestly it does look good. :D Sorry for the ink splotches tho, and I hope you can read it.

We did this for you, Oma, because... well you are awesome /gen. You gave us the opportunity for a great month and we wanted to say thank you for all the joy you brought us so... thank you :)

Art :D

As for everyone who said they wanted to talk to Oma or other Fan Joy July artists who they loved sharing this month with... feel free to tag and share in the reblogs. Share the joy I guess- there's enough to go around :D

Happy Fan Joy July, Oma :))

Bear

Wild: *over dinner in Wild’s hyrule* I hate it when people ask me: “are you a dog or cat person?” I will pet a bear if I know the lil fucker-

Time: language

Wild: won’t bite me.

Twilight and Flora: I know

*the two look at each other*

Warriors: so keep you away from all wildlife. Check. No wonder your best pal is a wolf. *smirks eyeing twilight*

Twilight: *glares*

Flora: *snickers* he was basically raised by one!

Time and warriors: we know. *not amused*

[psykheofthestars]

My favourite hc about prophetic dreams in the royale bloodline is that they came from Sky

Artemis: *wakes up in a cold sweat with a very terrified expression*

Aurora: prophetic dream?

Artemis: prophetic dream.

Dot: Those dreams are both a blessing and a curse!

Lullaby: I'm genuinely so glad that Time also gets them, I know I'm not insane!

Flora: I only recently started getting them and I can confirm that they're *TERRIFYING* do you know how many times I've seen scenes of L-Wild being put into danger and having to deal with the fact that I can't even intervene!?

Tetra: I HATE when that happens! It happend so many times while me and Sunshine were seperated during the War of Ages!

Fable: Sunshine.. your denial of your feelings is a river in the desert..

Artemis: Goddesses.. I still remember how you would barely sleep until you two were reunited

*more Zeldas other then Sun telling stories about prophetic dreams*

Sun: wait wait.. They're really that bad? I guess I can manifest a quick vision of my Link but they aren't as terrifying as how you're describing it!

*silence*

Fable: You.. You don't get the dreams!?!?!?!!!?!

Dawn: Even I get them and I barely have any magic!

Dusk: I.. I'm at a loss for words-

*meanwhile*

Sky: *wakes up after having a very vivid prophetic dream*

Four: prophetic dream?

Sky: very vivid prophetic dream.

[weepingtalecowboy]

I am surprised and kind of not surprised at all by how undeniably bad Hyrule's politics are

Like there is a demon knocking at your doorstep every decade or so

And instead of creating a system of actually destroying the demon again and again

You just throw your daughters at the problem and wait till a little blond boy comes and saves you

Like why is the whole kingdom so underprepared for calamity ganon

They had 10.000 years to prepare for it and instead chose to procrastinate till they had less then a year left and only then did they try to find a way to fix the situation

Like telling Zelda to get on and start zelding would have been useful when they had several thousands of years to prepare

But only like 17 years without a link to be found

Is just stupid they should have recovered the divine beasts the second that Zelda came to be or even earlier like several hundred years before the reawakening of the calamity

But that also makes total sense for a kingdom that won’t stop sacrificing daughters and relies entirely upon a single man (most Times a boy even)

And that is so fucking hilarious and pathetic

Like if I was an outside observer

I too wouldn’t want to involve myself into such a mess

[tearsofmydeadhorse]

how I think different members of the chain would sneeze because I’ve fully lost my mind

wild:

before the calamity, he was one of those people who suppress their sneezes, mainly so that he could stay silent. anyone who saw him sneeze would hear a small sound and see him violently jerk with the force of the sneeze, and that was just it.

post-calamity, though, he fully embraces his loud sneezing. rumor has it his sneeze is louder than the roar of a lynel, and flora once joked that he could defeat ganon by the sheer force of it. the chain hates it. every single one of them is put on edge by loud noises, so every time wild sneezes all eight of them have a flash of panic as they all reach for their weapons before they realize, ah. everything is fine. wild just got some dust in his nose.

they all hate it, but they don’t try and tell him to be quiet. he’s an unstoppable force that will not be silenced again

wind:

he screams “ACHOO” with every sneeze. he’s competing with wild to see who can do it the loudest, but so far wild’s still winning. wind’s isn’t a scary as wild’s is, because while wild’s is sudden and ear-shattering, everybody within a ten mile radius knows when wind’s about to sneeze because of the fact he goes “ah-ah-ah—ACHOOO” every time it happens. he does it on purpose because he thinks it’s funny, and is currently running in first place on the Most Obnoxious Sneeze list. he takes pride in his position.

time:

time is third on the Most Obnoxious Sneeze list, after wild and wind. he’s got one of those loud dad sneezes, and every time it happens he groans as if he’s shattered all his bones and says something along the lines of, “that was a doozy.” if he sneezes multiple times in one day he’ll start counting them, and every time he goes, “unbelievable. fourth sneeze of the day!” there are multiple groans from the chain. everyone thinks that’s just How He Is, but in reality he’s just being a little shit and takes great amusement in the fact they all think he’s some old man.

when they get to time’s hyrule, malon plays along, acting as if it’s just time’s old age catching up to him. in private, however, the both of them are in hysterics at how seriously the entire chain believes it all. they’re both little shits. will the chain ever know?

four:

he’s one of those people who sneezes about fifty times in one breath. the number of tiny, quick sneezes depends, but they’re always in intervals of four. sometimes it’s four sneezes at once. sometimes it’s eight. sometimes it’s sixteen. the chain’s impressed and a little concerned, and at one point legend makes a comment about how it sounds like he’s multiple people sneezing at once. four just laughs it off (perhaps a little too hard?).

legend:

bunny sneeze. that’s all. he’s got the tiniest, and quite honestly the cutest sneeze out of all of the chain. for the longest time he tried to hide it, because he knew exactly how they’d all react, but alas, one day it was a little too dusty in one of hyrule’s caves, and it had to happen eventually.

obviously the entire chain had to comment about it (read: make fun), and it only stopped when legend’s face became as pink as his hair. wind made some comment about how he was grateful legend wasn’t an annoying sneezer like the trio currently battling for the title of Most Obnoxious Sneeze, which resulted in a large argument about who was truly worthy for the title, which changed the topic quickly.

and if there are still a couple of muffled laughs every time legend sneezes, he guesses it is kind of funny. but only kind of.

sky:

he legitimately just sounds like he’s coughing. wheezing, even. nobody knows whether or not to say “bless you,” because they don’t know if he’s sneezed or if he’s just got something in his throat. sky thinks it’s funny and will say “no ‘bless you’?” after he coughs sometimes, just to be a little shit and confuse them. they all hate it, because how are they supposed to be polite if sky calls every sneeze a cough and every cough a sneeze?! sky thrives off of their distress. he is the original link, after all—where do you think the others got it from?

hyrule:

they have never heard him sneeze once in his life. he’s so incredibly quiet with it that everyone thoroughly believes he just can’t sneeze. maybe it’s a fairy thing, who knows, they don’t want to be rude! in reality he just needs to be quiet to survive in his hyrule, so his sneezes are a lot less earth-shaking then some of his brothers’ sneezes (hint, hint). still, he doesn’t correct their assumptions. they can handle a little mystery solving, can’t they? plus, he’s a little curious to see how long it will take for them to find out the truth. and seeing them tiptoe around it is a little amusing, too. maybe he’ll even start giving them false clues—would they believe him if he said that fairies didn’t breathe through their noses? that fairies don’t sneeze because they use their wings to breathe?

yes. every link is a little shit, in case you couldn’t tell. hyrule is no exception.

twilight:

sneezes like a dog. sometimes it just sounds like he’s hacking. his head shakes like a dog’s when he sneezes, too, and he is 100% made fun of for it. “did the ghost of that wolf pelt possess you, rancher?” “been spending too much time around wolfie?” post-wolfie reveal it makes a lot more sense to the chain, but pre-wolfie reveal it’s the funniest thing ever. he’ll sneeze when something’s too strong-smelling or at random moments when sneezing really doesn’t make any sense, and he’s been given the title of “awkward sneezer” because it always happens at the worst time. it’s happened mid-battle before—but really, who can blame him? wild’s bokoblins were putting WAY too much seasoning on their food!

warriors:

his sneeze is normal. too normal. so remarkably normal that the rest of the chain are determined to find out how he does it. what does he mean, that’s just how his sneeze has always been? it isn’t too loud? too quiet? too canine or feline or any other type of -ine? is he really sure he’s a link, if his sneeze doesn’t sound like something even ganon would fear? he has a sneeze, it’s just so…basic.

warriors just shrugs and says that maybe he’s the only normal one among them. out of all nine, maybe he’s the only sane one. the chain knows this isn’t true.

what they don’t know, however, is that warriors is a master of deception, and that he goes to sleep at night with a smile on his face at the knowledge that the chain will never, ever know his secret…

his sneeze is louder than wild’s.

[tenderleavesbob]

Flora kept staring at him.

Warriors tried not to flinch under the weight of her gaze. He stared at the book in his hands but he couldn't focus on the words. Even after all the centuries, the blood of the Goddess Hylia remained strong, and it was hard not to cringe when one of Hylia's children stared so intently at you.

Flora was a Zelda. Flora was safe, but no matter how many times Warriors told himself that, he couldn't stop his skin from crawling. Flora wasn't like her. Flora was nothing like her.

They had a job to do, but with Flora staring so intently at him, the book's words seemed to dance nonsensically in front of Warriors's eyes. With Wild's era being the farthest along the timeline, to the best of their knowledge, and with the castle's library being safe, it seemed like a good place to explore and find out information about their mysterious enemy.

So why was Flora staring at Warriors? Had he done something? Grabbed the wrong book? What had he done?

"Captain Link, sir," Flora called politely. Always so politely. So different from his Zelda. "I was meaning to ask you... Your scarf. If you don't mind me asking, I notice you're the only one with a color like that. Was it yours or...?"

So awkward, too. Very different from his Zelda. She liked to stick to the point and occasionally threw in her sword's point for extra emphasis.

Warriors closed his book. He wasn't going to make any progress with it. "It was given to me as part of the uniform. My Zelda knew that the hero would awaken soon and wanted to give her own special touch to the uniform."

The scarf had proven to be a lifeline during the war. Something soft and warm to cling to when the nights went on and on, cold and dark and endless. Something to wrap around his boys, something he could use to staunch the bleeding, something he could use to wipe away silent tears. It was the greatest gift that Zelda had ever given him.

Flora hummed and tapped her lower lip. Wild paused halfway up the bookshelf he was climbing, only to continue when Flora smiled and waved at him.

"It's just..." Flora blushed and lowered her eyes back to her book. "I heard all of you talking the last time you were here. When you were wondering about everyone's place in the timeline... I couldn't help but notice that your scarf matches the Champion's tunic. Do you think, perhaps... Perhaps your era is the one before ours?"

Warriors and Wild paused. Warriors studied Wild, now almost to the top of the bookshelf, and his blue tunic. Warriors fingered his scarf.

"I don't know," Warriors said quietly. He thought of the destruction in this era, how the seeds were planted thousands of years ago.

Then he thought about his fears regarding his legacy. The whispers in his own time of his beauty and how it worth sparking a war over.

No one in this time seemed to know of that. They thought of the blue of his scarf and thought hope and clad their champions in it.

Warriors tightened his grip on his scarf. "But I would like that."

[minty-mumbles]

Stupid AU idea:

Wild leaves his era before he can tell Flora about the portals/other heroes. Dink, sensing an opportunity, tries to attack Flora while she's unaware her hero is gone.

Flora sees a person who looks like Wild but with grey skin, black hair, and red eyes, and since she already knows about the dark armor, she just assumes that Wild's finally entered his emo phase.

Dink is expecting her to cower in fear of his appearance, a twisted version of the hero of this era. Instead Flora just goes "Oh hey Link, I like the new look! 🥰 Now come taste this soup I just made!"

And Dink is so caught off guard that? He just does?? And by the end of the night he is so, so confused, but also full of delicious soup and high off of the first friendly contact he's ever had.

He keeps coming back, and Flora ends up rehabilitating him. (She may or may not have caught on to the fact that Dink is not Wild about halfway though her first time meeting him, but decided to keep quiet and see where it went)

[stormysprite]

The Chain as Weird Things I’ve Done

(I learned that writing something silly kickstarts my writing at work, enjoy my warmup from today!)

Time: accidentally become leader of multiple friend groups

Warriors: learned calculus out of spite

Twilight: holds family record for largest scar. Changes the story every time you ask.

Sky: spent ages learning to whistle in order to speak Bird

Legend: collected … everything (I’m much better about this now than when I was little, but I do mean EVERYTHING)

Wild: eaten dirt, sand, eggshells, bugs, stuff off the floor, etc. Draws the line at Jell-O.

Hyrule: bitten twice by the same opossum (not on the same day)

Four: mummified a frozen chicken, held a traditional ancient Egyptian funeral for it (rip King Cluck)

Wind: Barnacle. Phobia.

Bonus:

Ravio: started a candy store (using VERY old Halloween candy) with absurdly high markup prices. Became highly successful through the Marketing Strategy of Being Small and Cute

Flora: spilled paramecium all over a display with important documents

[skyloftian-nutcase]

Fluffy huh? How about Legend and Flora, since we mentioned how those two would be really neat together recently

Of all the interactions Wild had periodically predicted, he hadn’t seen this one.

Flora, of course, was extremely curious and eager to meet everyone. And while he knew she might have more interest in some of the heroes more so than others, he hadn’t expected her and Legend to spend literal hours talking about mixing magic with technology.

Yet here Wild stood in the kitchen of his Hateno home, watching Flora and Legend pore over books that were so numerous and scattered they covered the entire table, exchanging theories and stories, their smiles growing ever bigger with each new discovery. He wasn’t sure he’d ever seen Legend so excited over anything.

Wild smiled at it, returning his attention to the stew he’d been working on. It was such a beautiful thing to see his Zelda so happy again. He always loved her smile.

[the-little-robyn]

This comic is based on @linderosse 's Weilders of Wisdom comic where EoW and AoL Zelda are the same person. I am obssessed with that concept and the angst potential it has.

I decide to put my own personal twist on it, where Silent's (EoW Link) ghost lingers in the chamber where Aurora/Echo slept, unable to move on to the after life. Phantom (ST Zelda) is able to see spirits and ghosts after the events of her game and reasures Silent that what happend centuries ago was not his fault. Poor boy feels like he failed to protect his princess 😢

[witheringeffect]

A rough concept piece for a short story I'm working on called "Til Death Do Us Part."

I implemented elements of the Aspect armour because I feel it was a wasted opportunity on Nintendo's part to be a literal Zonai :'(

Chain meets Flora and Wild post TOTK.

Married Zelink. Trans Link. Secret stone holder Link.

Both are very nonchalant about things that happen. Honestly, what haven't they seen at this point??? Oh, what's this? Hylia wants us to join a bunch of Links that have been together for a year and haven't made progress?? Let's go make some progress!

Summary:

Summoned to the Forgotten Temple, Link finds himself accepting a new journey. With Zelda, of course. No way were either of them going to accept being separated again.

Shenanigans.
