Is this, is this, is this what people do?
Is this what he wants? Is this what I’m allowed to take?
He’s rocking into me, and I need this to happen again someday in the light. I don’t know what Baz’s face looks like, like this, when he’s coming undone. And I can’t keep my eyes open anyway, when I’m coming against him.
Is this, is this, is this …
Is this magic?
Is this enough?

Wars and Wild as knights in Lu
They have issues.
I have a lot of thoughts on Wild and Wars and their relationship (Order of this post is talking about saluting, Wild and Wars' different perspectives, memory issues, and fire) Rant time.
No saluting!!
So Wild took a formal- almost/awkwardly saluting pose when Wars confronted him in 'Entrance pt.2'
It's similar to the first time Wild addressed Wars as 'captain'. His left hand is up from where a salute should be, and his overall posture is awkward, with his shoulders and right hand raised, but it's clear he's trying to do a salute in the presence of a fellow knight.
In the second example his hand is behind his head, but his posture is very straight and his right arm stiff- he's again attempting a formal saluting position. Which is still awkward
It is less clear but his changes in posture clued me in. He goes from like a deer in the headlights to visibly sweating to straight backed and looking up at Wars- looking at the changes in his body language
Side note but I literally love how Jojo draws the champions tunic so much-
We can't see the action of Wild's body language in a comic, just the positions he went to. But he visibly leaned away from Wars before switching to a straight backed saluting-like posture. He's clearly freaked out, hence Twilight's face: >:(
I think that Wild taking somewhat military poses around Wars is important to their relationship issues because it comes from his struggle with memory and identity
.
So like. All of them have different perspectives
Wars
I adore Wars. He is baby and I love him. I think it is also important to acknowledge that he would not speak to any of the others this way.
And the scarf man cmon it's so pretty they are so cute-
Why is Wars talking to Wild like this? He's called him out and reprimanded him multiple times in front of the others. Wild has taken it well but tbh if it was Legend I think he would be on fire.
To some extent I think he is in captain mode. I think that he has trouble seeing Wild as not a knight. Wars gives Wild respect as a knight who sacrificed for his kingdom, but now it seems he's taking it away as a knight who's not doing well enough since he 'disregarded the plan'
At least I think that's the outside (or Wild's) view of it. But Wars internally really cares about Wild and he saw him run up to a giant and lose it. Different ways of showing concern perhaps?
Who wouldn't want to keep Wild from getting more scars?
I just. Don't doubt for a second Wars really cares about Wild- even if the way he's acting still isn't cool. He has no right to treat him like a soldier any more than the rest of the chain, and right now I think Wild is acting as the more mature person.
Wild
I adore Wild. He is baby and I love him. I think it is also important to acknowledge that although he is clearly making efforts after Twilight's injury, Wild has ignored Wars for the majority of Lu, by not speaking to him much, and not thanking or acknowledging Wars when he directly helped him. (Small example being walking with Hyrule not Wars when injured and not directly responding to Wars)
Wars cares about and respects Wild, but it seems Wild wants nothing to do with him, and he's been cold towards Wars for the majority of Lu. To Wild, Wars reminds him of his perceived failure. Which is valid feelings, but still not fair. And I think that ask is talking about these two.
The thing I love about this is each of them are right and wrong in some ways, leading to the tension between them. So fully blaming either of them is not logical
The rest of the chain is just vibing. Except twilight who's mad and wants them to just grow up, but. Heros of courage not wisdom @uniquevoidflowers ;)
And that ask- '''Are any of the Links ever jealous of another Link for adventures that were less difficult/life threatening?'' ''When you hear Wild say he 'hates' someone you'll have your answer.''' somewhat leads to my next point-
Wild's identity and memory issues exacerbate all of this
In Entrance, Twilight is being stressed and defensive, that's ok. What concerns me most is that Twilight has talked with Wild through stuff like this in his rough moments
Wild has tried to be formal several times- he is not very good at it
Four's face I can't didnwidkekfjej
Wild isn't and can't be 'him'- the same 'perfect' (<actually has crippling anxiety) knight he was before, and Twilight knows this. And I agree with him a bit, I think, that Wars is making things worse in Wild's mind by being that perfect soldier, and seemingly holding Wild to a standard he isn't
Wild's attempts at saluting is symbolic of that- Wars makes him feel like a failure trying to be the person he should be. But Wild shouldn't be anyone but himself.
Anyways. Fire.
Wars and Wild have issues, and I want them to work through all their relationship drama so they can reach their PEAK dynamic, which is obviously this
I mean like. We need these two to be friends
Anyways. Wild is in this constant state of identity crisis, and being around Wars has not been beneficial- neither of them is or has been showing the other the respect they deserve. Not as knights, but as people and brothers. They need a get along shirt.
All this Art is by Jojo @linkeduniverse au!

Percy could kill with a snap of his fingers but won't because he doesn't understand or practice his own powers enough to realize he can do that.
Jason could kill with a snap of his fingers but won't because when he was young he preferred to feel the kill beneath his own hands, clenched tight between his teeth and as he grew he was told to only use his powers when absolutely necessary, otherwise hide them away and fight with only sword and shield.
Hazel could kill with a snap of her fingers but won't because she doesn't know how.
Thalia could kill with a snap of her fingers but won't because she is as unfamiliar with her powers as Percy, not because she doesn't understand them, but because she values the hunt and the chase and so sets them aside in favour of teamwork with her fellow hunters.
Nico could kill with a snap of his fingers and he will, when he needs to. He's kind, and patient, willing to fight until the bitter end in hopes that they'll cave, they'll desire life and give themselves up. But not everyone, not every creature, deserves to live and standing between him and his goals, ugly at the core of their soul, sometimes he'll decide they've lived long enough and snap his fingers, shattering their body into bits and pieces so violently their soul flings out and severs itself in the process.

Danny was just minding his business retrieving something for clockwork in some gothic city in another dimension. He could admit opening the Infi-map and showing off the wierd purple doors inside it as he tried to make heads or tails of Clockworks newest riddle looked kinda sus from an outside perspective.
That didn't mean he expected getting jumped by colorful masked vigilantes.
Or for them to fight with eachother over turf.
Nor did he expect the map to get shot by one of them and the map to freak out and teleport all of them to a new unknown location. The biggest surprise was him and "Red Robin" he couldn't resist adding "Yum" after he introduced himself, much to the two vigilantes confusion recognizing one of Kakashis ninja dogs just staring at them tiredly before asking them why they were so close to the leaf village.
Then he asked what Phantom was. Crap. Crap. Crap. Danny decided it was a great idea to saybhe was a Yokai. For some reason.
He and Red Robin were freaking out for similar reasons and both wanted to gtfo of this dimension as quick as possible while Red Hood was just curious. Danny heard the oh so familiar sound of ninjas jumping through trees in the distance and grabbed both of the older guys before booking it with them, flying as far and fast as he could while maintaining intangibility.
If Danny disappears from thier camp and comes back a few hours later with a small blond boy and a teary eyed red haired boy then who could blame him?
Red Robin could. He didn't want to die.

Hcs on the most underrated duo
-When Tara and Sam get into a fight, Tara goes to Kirby's place and complains until Kirby has to take her back to their apartment and force sam and tara to talk like the two adults they are.
-Kirby made Tara promise to send her location whenever she goes somewhere without sam (or without sam knowing.)
-and Tara, on the other hand, made Kirby promise not to tell Sam where she is.
-Kirby and Tara often go shopping together, and whenever they go, they buy Sam a gift.
-Kirby, as the older sister she is, is very protective of Tara
-but what Kirby and Tara have in common is that they both are incredibly protective of Sam. They interrogate Danny every time he takes her on a date.
-They once had a horror movie night and they ended up fighting the all time because Kirby's taste in movies is way more like Mindy's taste than Tara's taste.
-indeed, Kirby calls tara "movie snob" and Tara goes on a rant about how liking elevated horror movies DOES NOT make you a movie snob but it only proves that she has a better taste than Kirby.
-Tara started spending so much time with Kirby that, at one point, Kirby had to force her to go out with people her age instead of hanging with a 30 years old FBI agent
-Tara and Kirby are able to talk about Jill and Amber only with each other

Danny is Ra's.
Fun stupid idea time!
Danny, wanting to unwind a little, wants to reincarnate (Ghost King world. Sorry, I love it way too much). He brings it up to the Observants, who by now were beaten into re-education and submission (and therapy for some. Danny has been King for a LONG while now). They tell that reincarnation as it is is very difficult for beings of such power. Doubly so for Halfas.
But!
There is a way, don't worry, Your Highness!
They wouldn't tell what it was. Clockwork wouldn't crack. Other Ancients wanted to see what would happen.
Danny agrees to that mysterious method.
Turns out that that method was taking over the body of someone else. Observants took the opportunity to finally get rid of one offending man, who has lived way past his expiration date and was a huge thorn in their side due to the amount of work they had to do about his stupid Pits.
----
Danny wakes up in a Raw, unfiltered pool of ectoplasm and is confused as hell.
He gets out. Looks around and sits down and groans quietly as the memories get assimilated into his brain.
---
Danny becomes Ra's. He has an assassin cult and a daughter who is doing questionable things just made a child without the other party's knowledge.
His grandson is adorable.
Danny has so many things to do now...
