first pass at the smashbros Links. I don't think they'd appear in my au but it'd be funny lol. Adult Link!
i drew this a while ago so i don't think this would actually be their oufit, i just wanted to see something modern on 'em. though i do want them to radiate hot enbie energy.
I'm going to call them Tank. Specifically because they're a heavy and relatively slow fighter in Melee.
And I imagine SmashBros land is kind of like Barbie Life in the dreamhouse where all the fighters kinda just live in a town. Or the Lego Movies? Since it's a mashup of different franchises.

I can't express just how much I love that last panel on the third page. But I'm going to try.
Skyward!Link's face, bemused but patient, like he's a very good caretaker dealing with a stubborn charge.
BotW!Link's expression, the opposite. He's 100% serious and a bit sulky.
The sheer quality of the dialogue. Every line is perfect and purposeful either for comedy or plot.
Wild doesn't trust Time even if he saved him. It just buys him a truce (let's leave). He does trust Skyward!Link, and intends to keep traveling with him. Everything is "let's", not "I'm going to".
The prospect of getting out isn't enough to counter the mistrust for Time. He hasn't been in there long enough to see help as a necessity, he doesn't care that Time could find them an exit, he thinks he can find one himself anyway.
Food, though. Yes, yes, ok, THAT's a good reason to go with Time. Especially since his last meal prospects turned out to be a hero too.
The whole process is there and it's great but it's also funny because it ends with Wild being swayed by food, but it's not just a stupid joke it makes total sense too and the whole scene is awesome for both characters.
Absolute perfection.
Hope y'all enjoyed this chapter! .:ChuChu:. pt.15

Crossover, mini Link meet
You know what everyone who doesn't remember Hero and who's not reading All That Hurts Us need?
A crossover of the two!
See, the thing is, Hero!Link is super easy to cross over with any other Link because he can send his spirit to visit his past selves. So I couldn't resist getting him to bother ATHU!Link for a bit.
And besides, getting several Links to interact is pretty popular nowadays, right?
***
Hyrule Field, not far from the Great Plateau, two nights after Heroes’ Day
Link knew he should sleep – there was nothing else productive he could do at the moment. He had no idea what to do next other than seeking guidance or help from the Goddesses, which was already pretty desperate, and he couldn’t do that until morning.
So he was lying down on his side, eyes closed, as comfortable as he could be with his travel blanket and pillow, and he was wide awake.
He was therefore on his feet, ready to draw in a flash when he heard someone clearing their throat.
He stared. The only thing around was what appeared to be the ghost of a… not quite Hylian person. Their skin was pale like most Hylians, but their ears were barely pointy at all. Whoever it was, they’d had a rough life: they were so skinny and slight that every one of their bones in the unclothed parts of their body seemed ready to poke out of their skin. Link guessed they’d died of hunger.
The apparition was staring right back.
“Who…” it said. And then looked around. “Okay, er, this is going to sound like a weird question but... is there anyone around who… er… wait. Is that…?”
The strange ghost’s eyes had just fixed on the handle of the Master Sword. Link’s eyes narrowed slightly. He was very confused and the last thing he needed right now was for his life to get more complicated.
“The Master Sword,” he confirmed. “Who or what are you looking for?”
The apparition’s eyes widened. “It IS you!” he exclaimed. “Ok, that makes more sense. Sorry I didn’t recognize you, you look different. First time I see a past me with dark skin. Wait. Your ears! You’re not even Hylian!”
Link quirked an eyebrow. Most of that was utter gibberish. He took a wild guess based more on the ghost’s reaction to the sword than to anything he had said. “You’re looking for the Hero? And you didn’t know I was Sea Folk?”
The apparition scratched its head and looked down. “We don’t know that much about most of the past ones,” he said.
Link tilted his head. “Past ones?”
The apparition swallowed and then did a little waive. “Hi. Sorry if I woke you up. I’m your future self. I can send my spirit into the past. I had NO idea some of my past selves were not Hylian! You say you’re from the sea?”
Link lowered his hand away from the handle of his sword. The apparition was making it very difficult to feel threatened.
“My grand-parents came across the sea to Hyrule. They weren’t living on the Sea or anything, it’s just that… well, that’s how you get here from there. I was born here, my parents were born here, but the lot of us are called Sea Folk. I’m not sure I believe you’re my future self, for the record. Just the same, what do you want?”
“I was aiming for someone who was trying to get help from the Goddesses,” the apparition said. “I… need their help. But I don’t know how to ask for it. Zelda says to pray, but we tried that, and it’s not working. We’re probably doing it wrong.”
“The Princess’s prayers are going unanswered even though it’s your last resort?” Link said. The idea was a bit horrifying, mostly because it confirmed the same thing could very well happen to him tomorrow morning. “Where did you try? It might be desecrated. Do you have any way to tell?”
The apparition’s eyebrows were threatening to disappear in his hairline.
“It matters where you do it?” he said. “What’s desecerated? Is it bad?”
Link sagged a bit. “You have absolutely no idea what you’re doing, do you?” he asked.
The apparition blushed and shook his head. “Zelda doesn’t either. She knows about praying, and when we did it to the Sages it worked, but…”
Link sat down and gestured for the apparition to do the same.
“Ok. Goddesses are only sort of omniscient. They are, but for the most part they’re not paying attention. The Three LEFT Hyrule, you know that much, right? They mostly don’t get involved. And Hylia… she hasn’t left but...” he trailed off. Hylia was not always aware of suffering in the present because she was stretched between the past and the future.
“That’s what I told Zelda!” Link said. “We have to figure out how to get them to hear us first if we want them to do what we're asking!”
Link felt heat going to his head and did his best not to scowl too hard. He got up but schooled his voice as well as he could to sound merely pissed instead of furious as he stared down his supposed future self. The apparition startled anyway.
“Okay, listen,” Link said. “I, and every other hero, have the Goddesses’ blessings. Farore grants us the courage to put up with all this and to keep fighting, and to face anything. Din gives us so, so much power. And Nayru gives us the wisdom and love we need to put that courage and power to a purpose and to feel something else than doomed. And Hylia… is harder to explain.” Hylia was literally in love with their soul and mourning their separation, but her blessings were less predictable and much harder to pinpoint. “The point is, they deserve your respect. Don’t entertain the thought of them sitting in wait for the opportunity to do as mortals bid. That’s beyond insulting. Prayers are not spells that compel them to do what you want.”
The apparition had the good sense to look chastised and not to argue.
“I’m sorry,” he said. “How do I reach them? How do I ask for help nicely?”
Link took a deep breath. “All right. You say you’re from the future? How much of the Great Plateau is still standing? How are the temples?”
The apparition blinked. “I don’t know what the Great Plateau is,” he said apologetically.
Link sighed. “No worship, no great plateau… I guess it follows. Are the three Sacred Springs still around?”
The apparition shook its head. “I have no idea what those are. I’m making the future look bad, aren’t I?”
Link shrugged. “IF you’re from the future,” he said. “I honestly have enough to worry about in my current lifetime without fretting about a future one ahead of schedule. Anyway, if there’s no actual proper place of worship, I think your best bet is places they would like. Shrine or not, they’re more likely to notice you there.”
He held up a finger. “Farore likes plant and animal life, particularly forests. Her shrine was in Faron Woods but it’s been defiled… not sure she’ll go back there in particular.” He held up a second finger. “Nayru likes water and ice. That can be anywhere almost, but the more the better? Her shrine is on top of a frozen mountain right now.” He held up a third finger. “Din likes fire of course. Look on or around Death Mountain.”
He paused and crossed his arms. “Hylia… ok, I don’t want to get into details if you don’t already know them, but if you really are the Hero reborn, Hylia might listen to you if you need her. Even more so than to her Royal Highness Princess Zelda.”
The apparition looked thoughtful. “It’s mostly Zelda that’s been trying,” he said. “You think I might be able to reach Hylia? Would… would she be able to help with…” he trailed off.
“If you’re from the future, does it really strategically matter what you reveal to me?”
The apparition bit his lips.
“We’re trying to get the triforce back from Ganon,” he finally said.
Link’s legs suddenly gave out and he found himself falling back on his blanket.
“Ganon… has the TRIFORCE??” he asked. “All of it? How?? There’s no WAY he managed balance! It should separate as soon as he makes a wish again, and only grant part of it! He can’t have all of it!”
The apparition did not meet his eyes. “Zelda said it should separate too, but it hasn’t yet. She thinks he’s not actually joining them, just keeping them until he figures it out. They’re still giving him power though.”
“Would it kill you to respect the Princess too…” Link groaned before shaking his head. He knew he was focusing on something that didn’t matter to distract himself from the thought of Ganon having gotten his hands on the triforce again, but seeing as this particular issue was literally Future Him’s problem, he felt he could allow himself some leeway for his own peace of mind.
“Oh, er. Zelda in my time is not a princess. We don’t have Kings and stuff anymore.”
Link’s eyes widened. “She has no title at all, she’s just a regular citizen? Doesn't that make it harder to keep track of Hylia’s bloodline?”
The apparition tilted his head briefly but shrugged. “I don’t know what you mean, sorry. I better go and try praying to Hylia. Thank you!”
He vanished instantly, leaving Link to stare at empty air.

* “go-to” doesn’t mean “only”! there’s a bunch of situational signoffs I haven’t put here, this is more about what you use by default
#sanders pollshit#mine is ‘au revior’#technically translates to ‘until we meet again’ but is also so intrinsically linked to melodramatic french romance films that all my emails#read just a bit like I’m trying to seduce somebody#which to be clear is my goal#my job is being silly so I can afford to get a little silly with it

"Long lost memories are hidden behind his dreams. Memories that part of him wants to bring to the waking world, but sometimes squeeze him too tightly. And while I can't help him remember them, the least I can do is loosen their grip."
Twilight knows Wild's dreams are sometimes troubled. Animals pick up on these things. So on nights when he's awake and he hears the boy whimper, the partial weight of a furry body and a head to pet soothes Wild's scattered soul.
I was inspired by a certain movie scene to draw this a year ago. Twilight is in my opinion the heart of the group. Should another of his kin be suffering, he does anything he can to help. Emotional support wolf included.
Forgive me if the words read a bit odd. Writing isn't my strongest talent and I'm tired.
Don't tag as LU, please.

The first hero of the four sword and their Zelda! There's next to nothing on this guy so it's basically an oc lol. I wanted the color palette for the Four to be CMY instead of RBG because CMY can actually make all the colors! And I want each variation of the Four to have their own color palette so they're not just doppelgangers... i want them to be recognizable as their own thing!
Zelda's not mentioned in this one (Vaati was kidnapping girls from villages) but my version is that he snuck out to help Link (well, actually to try and find out what's up on his own, but after meeting Link he teams up with her despite her stubbornness) and they defeated Vaati together. Zelda's trans btw, and Link is She/He.
Since Link goes back to the forest at the end his name should probably be forest-related? Or something related to toughing it out in the woods. I'm going to call her Moor. As for Zelda....well would his trans name still be Zelda? I can't call him Shiek-- that's a specific name that he wouldn't have. (Though Impa's probably around here somewhere lol). I think Errant suits him as his nickname!
