#botw links meeting au

[science-lings]

okay I’ve been inspired, time to list all my versions of botw/totk/aoc link lets go

Wild (He/They): Nonbinary, LU Wild adjacent, generally who I write whenever I write for LU, kind of his own thing bc I feel as though I tend to stray when it comes to lu characterization to fit my own wants. Has the most trouble with memories and their past, has the least control over his emotions. Things like sorrow and anger hit really hard for them and they have more trouble regulating it. Still silly and GNC though, just not as confident about their gender presentation yet.  

Sage (They/She): Genderfluid, HSFR botw/totk Link, really leaning into the whole death/rebirth/reincarnation thing with this one, accidentally picks up a spooky vibe because they have a skeleton horse and a big comfort cloak and is extremely good at making potions. This whole vibe what I’m leaning into for Another Second Chance, even though in that one the botw Link is still called Wild lol. 

Guardian (He/Him): Too anxious to think about gender rn but is a aroace queen. HSFR AoC Link, half sheikah and it is important to his story. His life is kinda dictated by his dedication to the throne by being descended from a long line of royal knights and sheikah who have vowed to serve the blood of the goddess. Also he’s betrothed to his Zelda and on his way to becoming King/Prince Consort.  

Aryll (She/Her): Cis woman (but with complicated gender feelings as she was discouraged from being feminine for a long time and has trouble feeling valued while enjoying typically feminine things, you know the vibe) My Fem!Wild/ Link AU, is the most likely to commit regicide. Had an easier time recovering memories during botw bc of her large amount of shared moments with Zelda. 

Linkle (She/Her): Trans woman Link au, has a bit of an egg cracking moment when she was getting into gerudo town, don’t have much for this one, it might be where I put all my Link being close to the Gerudo hcs. Like, after sealing the calamity, she and Zelda go to live in Gerudo Town instead of Hateno and they’re real close buddies with Riju and Linkle goes to the nearby great fairy to get her gender magically transed. idk i love the gerudo and think they deserve better. (also her name could be changed i kinda made this one on a whim...) 

Spirit Sage (They/Them): Fem leaning enby, totk role swap au where Link gets sent back with the spirit stone instead of Zelda, they lost their arm but the stone lets them summon a ghost version that they have to learn how to control (a feature also seen with HSFR Sage), trained under Mineru and tries to assasinate Ganondorf a few times. 

Time Sage (They/He): Masc leaning enby, pre-calamity was a trans man but then their gender got pickled for a century and their ideas on gender changed a little. They lose their arm but don’t get a replacement. The secret stone they had with them amplifies their time manipulation abilities (bullet time/ sitting by the fire, that kind of thing) They have to learn to fight just as will with their left side and not wield any sort of shield. The story is closer to the canon version than the Sage of Spirit version of the au. 

Gladiator (He/Him): trans man, ssbu Link, pulled from his quest pretty soon after botw. Older brother/babysitter to Young Link (MM) and Toon Link (WW), Eyes have been opened to the multiverse and he’s kinda just vibing with being kind of immortal and meeting the strangest people. ssb lore is wacky so he’s at least allies with all of the other characters, including ganondorf at in the end. Has the least amount of fashion sense and cooking ability but at least he has little brothers and is buds with Kirby.

¡Hola!

Este post será una especie de guía de los 12 Links que conforman la historia. No especificaré sus edades exactas, sino un aproximado.

Puedes leer la trama aquí

Aventuras: Skyward Sword

Edad: 20-21 [Joven adulto]

Ahora vive tranquilamente con Zelda en la superficie, donde ha encontrado la felicidad en una vida pacífica.

Aunque ya no tiene en su poder la Espada Maestra, suele visitar el lugar de descanso de Fi, aunque nunca reciba una respuesta.

Aventuras: The Minish Cap

Edad: 11-12 [Niño]

Después de sellar a Vaati, ya no empuña la Four Sword.

No dejes que su juventud o pequeña estatura te engañen; subestimarlo sería un error.

De corazón bondadoso, honesto y dulce, nunca duda en ayudar a quien lo necesite.

Es el más joven (y el más bajo) del grupo.

Aventuras: Ocarina of Time & Majora's Mask

Edad: 20-21 [Joven adulto]

Tras salvar Hyrule y Termina, ahora vive como un viajero y ayuda en el Rancho Lon Lon.

A pesar de todo lo que ha enfrentado, nunca ha dejado de buscar a Navi.

Está considerando unirse a la Guardia Real.

Aún no lo entiende del todo, pero tiene un pequeño enamoramiento por Malon, su amiga de la infancia.

Aventuras: Wind Waker & Phantom Hourglass

Edad: 13-14 [Adolescente]

Pasa gran parte de su tiempo explorando nuevos lugares con Tetra y siempre regresa con regalos para su hermanita.

Es el más expresivo y hablador de todos.

Le gusta unirse a los demás cuando tocan música.

Aventuras: Spirit Tracks

Edad: 13-14 [Adolescente]

Es físicamente muy parecido al Héroe de los Vientos.

Tan pronto como New Hyrule estuvo a salvo, finalmente pudo dedicarse a su pasión: los trenes.

Suele ser muy olvidadizo y algo distraído. Su constante cansancio por el trabajo no ayuda, pero a pesar de eso, realmente lo disfruta.

Aventuras: Twilight Princess

Alias: Bestia de Ojos Azules, Héroe del Crepúsculo Edad: 19-21 [Joven adulto]

Extraña profundamente a Midna, más que a nada ni nadie.

Tras sus aventuras, regresó a Ordon, donde se dedica a cuidar animales y velar por sus amigos.

Lleva consigo una espada todo el tiempo, por si acaso.

Aventuras: Four Swords/Adventures (Combinados)

Edad: 13-15 [Adolescente]

Es quien más recientemente terminó su aventura; estaba en camino de devolver la Four Sword a su pedestal, pero terminó junto a los demás antes de poder hacerlo.

Hijo de un caballero, era un soldado en entrenamiento antes de embarcarse en su misión para derrotar a Vaati.

La Four Sword ha tenido algunos efectos secundarios misteriosos en él...

Aventuras: A Link to the Past, Oracle of Seasons & Ages, Link’s Awakening

Edad: 17-19 [Adolescente]

Suele llevar una flor, no porque le gusten particularmente, sino porque le recuerdan a Marin.

Tras su viaje a la isla Koholint, finalmente tomó un descanso de buscar aventuras; necesitaba tiempo para procesar todo lo que había vivido.

Pasa sus días cuidando su colección de artefactos.

Aventuras: A Link Between Worlds & Tri Force Heroes

Edad: [Adolescente]

Comparte con Wild el gusto por la ropa y tiene una docena de atuendos ridículos para cada ocasión.

Conserva con cariño el brazalete que le regaló Ravio; al final, aprendió a apreciar al avaro conejo cobarde.

Es animado y tiene un sentido del humor peculiar. De todos, es quien mejor se ha adaptado al trabajo en equipo.

Aventuras: Zelda I & Zelda II

Edad: 16-18 [Adolescente]

Tiene dificultades para bajar la guardia y relajarse, producto de vivir en un Hyrule hostil y enfrentar amenazas constantes.

Prefiere usar magia y hechizos, pero no duda en demostrar que es un espadachín formidable.

Aunque no lo diga en voz alta, para él convertirse en un hada es probablemente lo más divertido que hay.

Aventuras: Hyrule Warriors

Edad: 20-21 [Joven adulto]

De todo el grupo, probablemente sea quien mejor comprende la situación que están enfrentando; para él, es extrañamente familiar.

En el pasado, permitió que el exceso de confianza y ego casi le costaran la vida, y está decidido a que no vuelva a suceder.

Puede parecer arrogante al principio, pero no es más que una broma; en los momentos serios, es sensato y se preocupa profundamente por todos.

Actualmente, dedica su vida a su carrera militar.

Aventuras: Breath of the Wild & Tears of the Kingdom

Alias: Campeón Hylian, Campeón de Hyrule, Héroe Edad: 20-23 [Joven adulto]

A los cuatro años ya era un espadachín prodigio, capaz de vencer a caballeros entrenados.

Amaba silenciosamente a Mipha, viendo en ella un alma amable que lo amaba por quien era, no por su destino como héroe. Lamentablemente, nunca tuvieron la oportunidad de confesarse sus sentimientos.

Tras despertar, se volvió mucho más hablador y expresivo. Aunque aún carga con la culpa de sus amigos caídos y su reino destruido, ya no siente el aplastante peso de las expectativas del mundo sobre él.

Did Twilight mentor Wild or is this the first time they meet?

So they met during Wild's adventure, but as I said in a previous post, Wild only knows him as a wolf, so he doesn't recognize him immediately when he meets him as a Hylian

He considered him more of a traveling companion and a 4-legged friend than a Mentor, I can certainly tell you that Twilight helped him a lot, but they separated at some point (as Twilight had urgent problems to solve)

Wild will see him again for the first time during the story and therefore there will be a reunion ☺️

DAY 22-NPC

[derehono-tloz]

Does anyone have AU where Chain meets Wild as a ghost?

I just had an idea that like other Champions, Wild’s soul was also trapped but instead of being trapped in Beasts, he was confided to the Master Sword (where he spent time protecting Sword Spirit from Ganon’s malice).

And just imagine Chain coming to Wild’s Hyrule and realising that Hero of this world is dead, so they have to defeat Ganon themselves. So they are set to free Divine Beasts and at the end, find a Master Sword. And when they finally found Master Sword, they once again had to face Ganon’s malice that had been freed from the sword and got a physical incarnation to fight Heroes of the Past.

But when they finally defeat it, they would be faced with Wild’s ghost. This ghost also has a Champion gift, Flurry Rush. And after that, he kinda joins them ?

Anyway, it would be really cool to read something like that!

My Links-meet AU at a glance! I wanted to finally sit down and draw them all, though the designs certainly are not final.

Feel free to (aka: please do) send asks and questions about them to give me things to draw about :D I have so many thoughts about them.

[linksconverge]

GAME: Age of Calamity DIRECTORY: Height ref, #character tag

One of Hyrule's extraordinary Champions, though they certainly don't feel like it given how everything's turned out. With what they perceive as a failure of grand proportions — and with whom Terrako has enlisted for help — they have little time, capacity, or believed right to concern themself over anything more than: how do they fix this? Not exactly hostile but hardly welcoming, the majority of the party finds interacting with them something like trying to grind down stone barehanded.

WEAPON: Royal Broadsword and Hylian Shield. Prodigious with the blade since childhood, their swordsmanship proves to be amongst the best of the party — even as they're hampered by the painstaking process of adapting to their prosthetic arm. Their drive would be admirable, if it wasn't so self-denying.

GEAR: Champion must-haves. Perhaps the most fitting way to describe the nature of their inventory would be "excessively functional". Outside of particular standouts like their paraglider, hair-tie, or seasonings kit, nearly everything is carried for its necessity rather than for any sentimental value. Notably, there is an absence of the equipment that used to define the Knight Who Seals the Darkness.

SKILL: Sheikah arm. A transhumeral prosthesis engineered by Purah and Robbie with the help of several medical professionals, for part of the right arm Knight no longer has. Powered by Ancient Cores and a miniature Guidance Stone, it's network-interfaced with the Sheikah Slate, allowing them to make use of Sheikah Runes even in the device's (and Terrako's) absence. It's not a perfect solution (check-ups still need to be regularly conducted and Knight has residual and phantom limb pain on top of everything else to handle), but it's enough.

SKILL: Royal guard. There's more than just extensive combat training that comes with being a knight, of course. For one so involved with the Royal Family, receiving a formal education in equestrianism, the arts, sports, etiquette, survivability, and so on was par for the course. How well they took to each subject is a different matter altogether.

LANGUAGES & COMMUNICATION: Hearing, though with auditory processing issues. Understands Hylian (Modern Alphabet), conversational Zoran, Sheikah, Rito, and Goron, and very limited Gerudo. Non-speaking, they use the present era's Hylian Sign Language to communicate.

Literate, so they'll try to write if given the means to when needed. They're otherwise pretty decent at pantomiming.

FAMILY: They have an official byname, technically, but aren't keen on being associated with their father and have opted for the toponymic alternative offered by way of their mother. Not that they're on the greatest terms with her, either. Out of their family members, they're closest with their younger sister — which isn't saying much when they feel like they're distant friends at best and barely acquaintances at worst (it's complicated).

PERSONAL TIMELINE: Went through the events of Age of Calamity when they were seventeen-years-old. It's been over a year since.

NICKNAME ORIGIN: Taken from their occupation, as proposed by Patches. Cori signs this as is ("knight"). Linh and Patches fingerspell (alphabetically, "K-n-i-g-h-t").

Day 24 - Deity

To pray to a goddess long gone and long forgotten and yet still be heard and even loved… it makes one wonder.

列車は月へ行ったりもしない

(translation: Trains don't go to the moon)

Happy Halloween!! (early, i really wanted to post this) (will reblog on halloween)

/With the moon being really sus, i think there's a good goddamn reason trains dont go to the moon lol. this sketch is taken from the 1:17 frame of tricot's Melon Soda MV. It's a very math rock song so having Snails and Oft here is so fucking perfect---- Track is there because "train", that said 1:17 is a bit early for that lyric to come up lol-

detailed id under the cut

<image d: From left to right, Snails, Track and Oft are standing and facing the camera. Snails and Oft are holding a photo, with Snails holding a photo of Majora's Mask creepy moon, while Oft is tearing his own photo of a red blood moon. Instead of using two hands like in the MV, Oft is using his armpit and left hand to tear it apart. Track looks like he's singing, with his mouth matching the MV. Behind them there are nondescript shelves, but on the top shelf there are Lon Lon milk jars placed. /End id>
