In case anyone needed to know

[smilesrobotlover]

C4 lbl groose

This one turned out strange cuz the coloring was different but hey, he’s chiseled. WhAt can I say?

Ask thing

[linkbetweenlinksau]

Some unhinged doodles so I can have fun drawing again

[linkbetweenlinksau]

Part 1|| part 2|| part 3|| part 4|| part 5|| part 6|| part 7|| part 8|| part 9 (you are here)|| part 10 (coming eventually)

Finally got done with this! New setting and new characters and that almost took me out! I also am suffering so that’s not helping. It might be a while until the next update but take this!

[linkbetweenlinksau]

Ok this one came to me in a dream

Here is yet another meme lol

(Gosh I could barely fit everyone in tags. There’s too many of them)

[smilesrobotlover]

I have a question what if all of the characters from all 3 your of aus (apologies if you don’t like them being referred to as aus) meat would Warriors be shocked at seeing double would wild and linkel get along like a house fire and gasoline is this just a normal Tuesday for impa we nead to know this stuff

Are you saying a crossover of lbl, TCOD, and THOF ? Cuz I have shamelessly thought of it fbkddbsksbsk (also I’m fine with them being called aus! They’re not canon, just stories I made up!)

For starters, Cursed, Twi, and Wild are all horse girls and would pamper Epona to no end. (This is Warrior’s Epona too, so he’ll have to stop them from spoiling her too much lol)

And another thing is that Moon is a descendant from Sky, so that’ll be fun, tho i don’t think they’ll get a long well since Moon is such a grump. But it’ll be cool to see that!

Now for the other characters… I haven’t thought about that. I’m sure it’d be funny to see Gerudo Groose for Sky, especially since he’s so different from his own Groose. Tho Lbl Groose would adopt THOF Groose in five seconds, no hesitation.

When you say Linkle and Impa do you mean them from TCOD? Impa would be annoyed and I’m sure the boys would be scared of her, they know better than to piss off an Impa, especially if she’s young. Linkle tho? Yeah she and Wild would get along swell. They’re two peas in a pod. They’ll annoy everyone to no end. It’ll be great

I think it’ll be weird to see several different links tho, especially Impa, but it would be very fun!

[smilesrobotlover]

Some random doodles

The many genes that ran in the family, and the tall genes was not one of them 😔

I thought it would be funny to show how flexible Ammon is and how completely unflexible Rusl is (he’s just like me fr)

And then Rusl discovers that talon is related to Twi so he gets happy. tho they’re technically not family, it won’t stop him

[linkbetweenlinksau]

What are each of the links relationships to their respective Zelda’s? Friends? Lovers? Strangers? Enemies? Family?

I hope you’re ready for an essay cuz that’s what you’re gonna get!

Sky: his Zelda is his lover! Idk how I’m gonna do their relationship… cuz the Sky arc that I’ve been working on is outdated and doesn’t match the new story of lbl so that’s super complicated lol. But he worries over her constantly and gets nervous when they’re apart. Separation anxiety am I right?? Groose is his best friend and they mean the world to me guys. They’re both himbos but groose is at least a smart himbo so he keeps Sky safe from doing super stupid things. He’s also really good friends with everyone in skyloft! Tho he had some rough patches with some of them after the events of skord for reasons, he’s doing fine now! And Sky is kinda awkward around strangers. He’s friendly and curious around them but compared to skyloft he’s never met them before so he says and does weird stuff, but he’s also chill so it doesn’t matter all that much. And Sky doesn’t have a family. Gaepora is an honorary father figure but overall his family is dead. So rip. His enemies are dead now but they were the only people he hated.

Minish: he and his Zelda are very very close! Best friends! Minish cares a lot about her and her well-being. Minish is good friends with all the Minish and with his Malon! Now… I’m kinda stuck on the lovers thing… cuz idk if it’s right to have Minish with someone? He’s the same size as an 8 year old and I’ve been trying to at least make his face look more 17ish, but I might make him a little bit more muscular since he’s a blacksmith and is very strong, but idk if I’d even be comfortable having him be a couple with someone else. Idk. I’ll see how you guys feel about it tho. Minish struggles with strangers, they think he’s kinda strange cuz he’s built like an 8 year old but is actually 17. He’s nice enough to them and he tries to be friendly but overall he keeps to himself. The major enemy that has affected him terribly was Vaati. He was 8 when he faced Vaati and he almost died (Hylia was the reason why he lived), and then he faced Vaati again during Four Swords (he was the first four swords guy, the one that takes place after MC). So Vaati is a bad subject for him.and then the only family that’s alive is his grandfather and while he is strict and scary, Minish loves his grandpa and they’re very close.

Time: his relationship with Zelda is complicated, cuz the Zelda in the adult timeline was someone he was super close with and was also in love with, however the Zelda in the child timeline is not the same person he loved. They barely know each other, and while the Zelda is nice, Time doesn’t know how to talk to her, plus when he told her about Ganondorf, he was more focused on finding Navi, so he didn’t stick around for that long. But he does care a lot about her, after all her influence helped him in Majoras Mask. Time doesn’t really have any friends, he never had the motivation to rekindle the friendships he had after what had happened. The only reason why he’s with Talon and Malon is cuz Talon was nice enough to take care of him when he was sick and alone. Aaaand cuz of that he fell in love with Malon and was able to accept that the timeline he is in is one he’s gonna be in for the rest of his life. He loves Malon a lot and he tells her everything, Talon doesn’t believe everything he says (but he will with my dumb crack au lol). Time is pretty intimidating around strangers but really he’s just as intimidated as they are. With enemies… the major one he’s looking out for is the FD, everyone else is either dead or suffering the consequences of their actions.

Legend: his relationship with Zelda is also pretty complicated. They are very close and have a lot in common, however, Tulip really loves Legend, but he doesn’t know how he feels since he hasn’t moved on from Marin. He’s confused around Tulip to say the least. I haven’t played enough of Legend’s games to think of anything for friends lol. Every enemy he has is dead, but he’s still upset about Ganondorf and Aghahim (idk how to spell his name bruh) since they killed his uncle. And last but not least, he has no family left, his uncle was murdered right in front of him

Hyrule: I’m taking a lot of creative liberties with him lol. He and Peony are super close and Peony has a HUGE crush on him. Hyrule respects Rose, and she is a lot older than him but she’s still a good friend to him. Hyrule is good friends with that secret Moblin, and he overall is a lovable himbo so a lot of people like him. The biggest enemies are the monsters trying to sacrifice him to Ganondorf, but luckily Ganon is dead so he doesn’t worry about him (or does he???) and he does have a living family! He just doesn’t know them or remember them! And he hasn’t met them in this au so he doesn’t know that exist! This is just a personal headcanon of mine so you can ask about his fam like… later or on my main blog.

Twilight: he and Zelda have a rooough relationship. They’re both so different from each other and Nebula comes off as cold and blunt which drives Twi crazy. They only really got along when they needed to and because Midna was a mutual friend, but overall they don’t like each other all that much. I’d say twilight has some good friendships, except he’s been isolating himself from everyone, but the resistance still talk to him and he’s still best buds with Fado, and Illia is still his best friend. For lovers, he still loves Midna and hasn’t really thought about anyone else. He kinda felt pressured to get with Illia so he doesn’t end up with her since she deserves someone who loves her the same way she loves him. Twi is pretty kind to strangers, all I can say. All his enemies are dead and the biggest enemy he’s facing rn is heartbreak. And family. Ah. I love his family more than life itself. His biological family is not alive but he was adopted by Rusl and Uli and they are such doting parents who try to help him feel better about what happened and stuff. And Colin adores him still and Rela (his new baby sister) is a baby and doesn’t know what’s going on but yeah. I love his family and Twi loves his family too. He’s just struggling with life rn so he hasn’t been with them a whole lot.

Four: ok, all the colors care a lot for Lily, Green has a crush on her however the others just see her as a really good friend. They grew up together since Four’s mom died when he was 3 months old, and the king was kind enough to let him be raised with Lily while his father was working, so they’re super close. Red has a BIG crush on Erune (from the manga), Blue is too focused on his teenage angst rn and Vio just does not care about love atm so it’s really only Green and Red with crushes lol. I suppose after lbl they’ll have their own friends except for Blue (who again is going through teenage angst rn) but ye. Green is polite and kind to strangers, Red is happy and joyful around strangers, Vio is rude but respectful enough towards strangers, and Blue is just pissed off all the time so strangers are scared of him. Their main enemy is gone now so they’re just kinda dealing with the affects of the four sword rn. And lastly family, their father. My absolute beloved. Their father is a very strict and serious man but he’s very worrisome and doting over his children (and Lily too. He kinda looked after her when he father died). They look up to him and want his approval, mostly Blue is struggling with the relationship tho (I just have a lotta thoughts on Blue ok??)

Windy: he wants to get maaaaaarrieeeeeddddd to tetra cuz he loves her so much and is such a loveable ray of sun shine around her while she looks pissed off all the time and I ADORE them. Telink is TOP tier. Windy is good friends with everyone since he’s just so sweet and mature but also very goofy and fun and strangers adore him cuz he’s polite around them. The biggest enemies rn are just dumb pirates and stuff, but Ganondorf really affected him negatively, so that’s a guy he hates. And family! I’m kinda basing his relationship with Aryll on my relationship with my older brother. Aryll looks up to him and Windy just looks out for her. His relationship with grandma is good and he adores her very much. Now for my favorite character friggin LINEBECK. He BASICALLY adopted Windy and Aryll, and Windy loves him very much cuz he’s a father figure who was able to stay, since his other father figures kept dying, but Linebeck is here to stay so he loves being around him. He’s also pretty anxious about his well-being cuz you know, father figures are always dying. Actually Windy is very happy on the surface but he’s EXTREMELY anxious about everyone’s wellbeing and feels responsible for them constantly. So oof

Spirit: he and phantom have such middle school crushes on each other and they’re very close and are best friends and they mean the world to me cuz they are so frigging cute and chaotic and yeah. I don’t think Spirit has too many friends except for Phantom, Niko and Alfonzo but they’re more like mentor figures than anything and Phantom is his Zelda but yeah. He’s kind and respectable around strangers except with his mutism it’s hard for him and others to communicate with him, and some rude people don’t have the patience for him to write everything down. He doesn’t have any major enemies and he doesn’t have any family so there’s that.

Age: he and Rune are good friends, tho they had an awkward moment since Rune had a one sided love for him, but now they’re close friends. Age is close with the champions and they’re all just vibing together, plus we can’t forget his friendship with Impa! They’re bffs! His lover is Mipha and they are engaaaaged and he loves her very much and it’s cute. Age is very proper and polite so strangers respect him enough. And then enemies are just random monsters or rogue yiga clan members and he’s mostly annoyed by them at this point. And he might have a living family, but Nintendo won’t explore him or his life so we’ll see when totk comes out with his family. If they still refuse to explore his life then I’ll just go with some headcanons. I do know that he def has a grandfather and a little sister, but it’s unknown if his father is alive, but I like to think he is.

Wild: Wild cares a lot for Poppy, it’s mostly just an instinct in him to care about and protect her even tho he doesn’t remember her all that well. Wild is kinda doing his own thing and vibing and he’s good friends with a lot people, like Beedle, Teba, Riju, Sidon, and Yunobo, so he’s not entirely friendless minus the champions that… you know… died. He doesn’t have any lovers, he would love Poppy but he can tell that there’s something there that’s keeping it from happening, that being him not being the same person he was 100 years ago, that guy being the person Poppy did Love, so he doesn’t dwell on it too much. He just vibes. Wild is fun with strangers cuz he’s sarcastic, punny, and weird and people like that fhdkdbjdbdkdb. Wild’s major enemies are yiga who are still trying to kill him and stuff, and tho they’re annoying they are still a threat to him. I’m not gonna go too much into it since totk needs to come out but yeah. And the family situation? Yeah they’re def dead by now. Kass is kind enough to invite him over for dinner from time to time tho so he greatly appreciates that.

Warriors: he and Queen Zelda are always pining after each other but they don’t actually do anything about it so they’re just super awkward and flirty and it drives everyone crazy like just KISS already. But Queen is really the only person he can comfortably open up to, and same thing with her. Around each other, they aren’t tied to any status or anything, they’re just people, friends hanging out, so they care deeply for each other. Warriors has a lot of good friends but he’s not super close with them, but he wants to be, he just doesn’t know how to. He actually used to have a stutter but with Proxi there to speak for him and with other help he’s able to talk normally, but he’s still very anxious around people. My warriors isn’t very smooth or confident he just looks pissed all the time but is socially anxious lol. He’s just like Time fr. He is good friends with Impa and Lana tho and he misses the people from different eras. His biggest enemies are dead however one major enemy that is still alive is Cia, who is really the only person he despises, but Cia doesn’t at all remember the details of what she did, so his hatred towards her is confusing for him cuz is it ok for him to hate her so much? She doesn’t remember anything and she’s good now so should he just move on? But yeaaah it’s a rough situation. And the only living family member is Linkle! His twin sister who he did not remember existing. They’re close enough, he gets annoyed with her sometimes but he still cares about her

Some important side characters in lbl! Groose, Aryll, and Malon!

[smilesrobotlover]

Link Between Links: Sky

Here’s the Sky arc I’ve been teasing about! Finally finished it! It’s really frickin long (idk how long) so bear with me.

The wind blew gently across the different islands. Loft wings and their partners flew with the wind, enjoying the breeze, traveling, or watching over those who may fall. On one of these floating islands, a man with a rocking pompadour stood, staring off into the distance. He had a serious look on his face as he glared across the sky.

“The sky,” he started, “is our home. It is a beautiful place that we fly across. But it is also deadly. Tornadoes and monsters sit, waiting for their flying victims to come and fall into their traps. Even the most skilled flyers are vulnerable.” He turned around to stare at his audience. “Are you ready to face the dangers the sky will throw at you? Or will you fall victim to the dangers that awaits, being another number to fall, down and down to the surface below?”

The children he was speaking to were staring at him as he waited for their responses. Gully sneezed without covering his mouth and Kukiel raised her hand.

“Yes Kukiel?”

“Mr. Groose? Why are we up so early?”

Groose let out a sigh and loosened up. He and Link were assigned the role of teaching the young kids how to fly their loftwings. Today was a big day for them, meaning that after weeks of teaching them maneuvers and what to do if your loftwing is sick, they were finally going out to fly in the sky. They needed to go out soon or else they would have to deal with the loftwing traffic.

“Well, we are just trying to fly when it’s nice out, and not busy. But that’s not what’s important. What’s important is flying! Now I know what y’all are thinking. ‘Flying is scary!’”

Gully scratched his head and pouted, “but flying is scary…”

“Well, how about I get you kids excited about flying! It may seem scary at first but it’s the best feeling in the world! Trust me! When you see the crimson loftwing, you’ll know.”

The two kids gasped at the mention of the famous crimson loftwing. They’ve seen the bird several times, but since they’ve never practiced flying until now they never got to see it. They finally were going to see the rare beauty up close. Groose laughed at their reactions and began to play up his performance.

“Then prepare yourselves youngins! Prepare to be amazed! At the fancy flying, the unbreakable bond, the beauty in the sky!” Groose turned around and rose his hands in dramatics. “LINK AND CRIMSON!”

The kids looked at the sky in anticipation, until nothing happened. They all sat there in silence and Groose began sweating. He laughed nervously and raised his hands again.

“I said, LINK AND CRIMSON!”

Once again, nothing happened, and Groose grew impatient. He knew what was happening. He turned to the two kids.

“Aha… excuse me for a moment.”

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

He was surrounded by nothing but light. It was blinding, it hurt his eyes, it burned his skin. He wanted it to stop. He curled up and made himself smaller. He just wanted it to stop. But the light kept getting brighter. It began creeping closer to him right up til it was unbearable. Finally he heard a voice. Light, feminine, familiar.

“You are mine.”

Who was speaking? He knew her…

“You are my precious boy.”

He tried opening up his eyes, but regretted it when he was met with blinding light.

“My hero.”

He opened his eyes again and saw a silhouette of a woman. Her hands crossed over her heart, her face emotionless, her face familiar.

He gasped.

“Zelda?”

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Link startled awake from the sound of banging on his door. He rubbed his head. What was that? Another nightmare? He looked out his window and stared at the spot where the statue of Hylia once stayed. He was almost glad it wasn’t there anymore.

Her watchful eye.

Link laid his head back onto the bed, staring at the ceiling. He was so tired of nightmares. He remembered when sleep was his escape and his comfort. Now it was his torture. He snuggled back under his covers and closed his eyes. He just needed to relax…

Suddenly his door burst open with Groose barging in, his face as red as his hair.

“LINK WHAT IN HYLIA’S NAME ARE YOU DOING?” He yelled. Link sat up in a rush confused. Then he remembered.

“Oh no our CLASS!”

“YEAH ‘OUR CLASS’! GET OFF YOUR SLEEPY BUTT AND HURRY!”

Groose ripped the covers off of Link, both screaming and frantic to get back to the class.

When Groose returned to his students, they were playing in the grass and with the bugs. They saw Groose and sat up, ready to learn. Groose stopped in front of them and went back to his played up dramatics.

“Ahem, as I was saying. Prepare to be amazed at the amazing flying of the beauty in the sky! LINK AND CRIMSON!”

This time, Link and his loftwing flew up into the sky, performing tricks in the air, the kids watching with amazement. Groose smiled at the performance and the reactions. Finally.

After minutes of Link showing off his skills, the two friends got the kids ready for their flying. Groose went out with Gully, who got over his fear quickly and enjoyed himself. Kukiel was nervous, but with Link beside her, she got courage and began her flying training. They flew in the sky for about an hour, teaching the two how to dive down, how to avoid objects in the sky, and all the important things. Finally, the two friends let the kids fly on their own, with them watching them carefully if something were to happen.

“Be sure to avoid the tornadoes ok kids? And stay near Skyloft!” Groose called out to them before they flew around the sky.

Link closed his eyes as the wind blew through his hair. He’s always enjoyed this. The feeling of being in the sky brought him peace when nothing else would. But he still felt a weight in his stomach.

“Hey, you ok?”

Link looked at his best friend Groose, who was watching him.

“Oh, I’m fine… It’s all good.”

“Are you thinking about Zelda?”

Link stared at him and looked down. No point in hiding it.

“Look I think about her too, I’m also worried about what she does on the surface, especially since she asked us to leave the surface for a bit…” Groose sat up on his loftwing and fixed his pompadour before continuing, “You don’t have to keep to yourself about it…”

Link smiled at his friend, “Thank you Groose. I have been a little worried… She’s down there all by herself… I can’t protect her, don’t know what she’s doing, don’t know how she’s doing.” He leaned down on his loftwing and closed his eyes. Ever since he defeated Demise he’s been protective of her. Her magic has grown stronger, but he was still afraid of evil coming after her. And now she was alone on the surface. It was eating him up inside.

Groose flew in closer attempting to pat Link’s head as a gesture of affection, but accidentally smacked it.

“Oops, sorry.”

Link laughed and smiled at him. Since they were sent to skyloft, Groose has been there for Link through his struggles. He was so grateful that they became close friends.

“What do you say that we go to the Lumpy Pumpkin after work? To clear your head?”

Link thought about it and smiled at him again, but before he could respond, they heard screaming. They turned their heads to see Kukiel screaming at Gully as he got sucked into a tornado. He fell off his loftwing and began to pummel to the clouds. Without hesitation, Link and his loftwing flew to his aid. Gully was too far from skyloft to be caught by knights flying around, so it was up to Link to save him. He pushed his loftwing to dive faster, his heart beating faster as Gully got closer to the clouds. If he reached them, Link didn’t think that he could catch him.

Groose stayed near Kukiel and watched helplessly as Link got closer to Gully. He almost couldn’t watch. But at the last second, Link grabbed Gully and flew up to an island. Groose sighed in relief and followed them, keeping a close eye on Kukiel.

Link was holding Gully close as he was shaking. The poor kid was terrified out of his mind.

“I told you not to fly too far!” Yelled Kukiel as she and Groose caught up to them, followed by Gully’s loftwing.

“I know, I’m sorry…” he said with his head down

Link patted his shoulder, “we have rules for a reason, and that is to protect you. We’re just glad that you’re safe, but please, listen to us next time ok?”

Gully, surprised by his gentleness, nodded. Link lead him to his loftwing.

“Let’s head back ok? The best thing to do in this situation is to learn from this experience and try again, but we’ll do that tomorrow.”

Gully nodded and determination filled his eyes. He was never one to back down. He gently got on his loftwing, and with a few pats, he was off. Link followed closely with Kukiel and Groose behind him. When they got to Skyloft, Karane and Fledge met them as they landed.

“Looks like y’all had fun out there!”

The kids said nothing while Groose laughed, “it was fun alright!”

Fledge turned to Link, “that dive was amazing! Your loftwing never ceases to amaze me!”

Link patted his loftwing proudly. He was lucky to have such a special bird. Fledge took the kid’s loftwings and went to care for them in the stables as the others escorted the kids home.

“Ok guys, the wedding is happening soon, and I was gonna ask if y’all would deal with the more, heavy decorations?”

Link and Groose nodded. Karane and Pippit finally decided to get married, all of skyloft have been excitedly planning for it. It’s especially gotten Link excited, since he’s been wanting to also take that next step in life with Zelda.

“Thanks so much guys! I knew you would agree!” They reached the kid’s homes and bid their farewells.

“I’ll see you little rascals tomorrow ok?” Groose waved goodbye and Kukiel gave him and Link a hug.

“See you tomorrow Mr. Groose and Mr. Link!” She said before running to her home. Gully waved and ran home as if the traumatic event before never happened. Link laughed at his lightheartedness, he missed being a kid.

“Well I also need to go,” Karane started, heading to where Fledge was, “I’ll talk to y’all later, oh and do let Zelda know that I really want her there!”

Zelda…

Groose gave her a nod as she walked away. He looked down at Link who was staring off into the distance. He scoffed and patted his head, gesturing to the Lumpy Pumpkin. “Shall we? I’ll pay.”

Link looked up, smiled and nodded, following his friend to their favorite spot.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Link sipped on his pumpkin soup slowly, still bothered from his dream last night. Something was wrong, he could feel it. But he felt completely helpless. He could go down to the surface, but searching for Zelda would be hard, especially since he couldn’t dowse like he could before. That thought made him more depressed than he was already was. He missed Fi so much it hurt. But he knew that she should stay resting. It was her duty, but it didn’t stop it from hurting. Sometimes he would go and stare at the master sword resting in the pedestal within the Sealed Temple, regardless of how much Zelda told him not to. He would speak to the sword about things that happened, but with the silence that came was only a grim reminder of what he had lost.

He felt a tap on his hand and looked up to see Groose.

“Hey c’mon, this is supposed to be relaxing!”

Link rubbed the back of his head. “Sorry… I’ve just… I had a dream last night and it’s been bothering me.”

“You want to talk about it?”

Link stared at his soup. This dream was too similar to the dreams he had about the imprisoned, he was terrified that it was a sign of something bad happening. Something bad happening to Zelda. He sighed. His thoughts always led to her.

“I… I don’t… I’m sure it’s nothing…” he lied, he did not want another loved one dragged into a mess he’ll have to fix. Groose was there for the imprisoned, but he never saw the full extent of what Link’s experienced. And he’d like to keep it that way. Groose should stay safe.

They finished their soup and decided to walk around the restaurant for a little bit. It was “for the nerves” according to Groose. They saw Kina and Guld working in the pumpkin patch with Keet watching.

“Hey, what’re you doing? I’m sure watching them work ain’t entertaining.” Groose said to him.

Keet grumbled at the sight. “You see them? He always makes her laugh! She enjoys his company! It’s annoying!”

“… are you talking about the old mole creature?”

Keet started ranting with Groose listening unwillingly. Link listened in for a little bit until he felt something. He walked away quietly, staring at the sky. The clouds got dark and it got cold. The wind began picking up, and a feeling of dread began spreading through Link. He noticed something within the clouds, a piercing, purple light shining as if it were a beacon. It made a hole in the cloud barrier and it felt as if Link was being drawn in.

“… I’m just afraid he’ll take Kina away from me! I love her!”

“You have problems Keet.” Groose looked over at his friend but noticed he was gone, walking towards the strange purple light. “Wait a minute. Hey Link wait!”

He began jogging towards Link, knowing the light was nothing good, but Groose didn’t reach him in time before he jumped off the edge and called his loftwing.

“Link?!”

Link began flying to the strange purple light. His gut instinct was to go to it. It was an opening to the surface, it had to be! That means that this was a sign of Zelda calling to him. He grew anxious the closer he got to the purple light, not knowing what danger she could be in, but then that anxiety turned sour, and he realized that he made a mistake. The closer he got to the portal, the more he couldn’t resist it. It got so strong that he was being pulled off his loftwing. This wasn’t Zelda, this was something evil.

“LINK!”

Link looked up and saw Groose coming for him. Link hung onto his loftwing for dear life and reached out for him.

“I’m being sucked in!” He yelled and Groose desperately started reaching. Their hands almost touched, but Link was not strong enough.

He lost his grip on his loftwing and fell off, falling into the purple light. The last thing Link remembered was Groose yelling his name and an unfamiliar world on the other side of the barrier.

Omg the update!! It’s so good! I think you really drew sky’s expression well, he looks so disturbed! Also Groose.

WAAAH THANK YOU!!!! I enjoyed drawing Sky (sometimes) and I’m glad i nailed his expressions! And yeah, Groose is clearly the highlight <333

Well I’m gonna ramble about my lbl chain! With new references and designs!!! Starting with Sky:

He is 21 years old, teaching the young kids how to fly and take care of their loftwings with Groose in Skyloft. He also goes down to the surface with Zelda to help her build the surface. Tho recently, she sent him and Groose to Skyloft for some unknown reason. He’s been waiting around to hear from her, but so far she’s said nothing. It’s been eating Sky up inside.

Twilight is 19, almost 20. After his adventure, he was left so empty and heartbroken that he changed significantly. Being unable to talk to anyone about the Twili, not being close to Zelda who does understand him the most, and being left behind by his best friend and the girl he loved left him feeling hollow. He lost motivation to do anything and isolated himself inside for a year since then. He only came out at night, mostly as a wolf, which wasn’t terrible, but he was still feeling terrible (sunshine is good for you babes). Rusl was able to get him to visit, and Twi wanted to turn his life around… but something strange happened to him….

Windy is 17, and has been adventuring with Tetra for a while, trying to find things to rebuild Hyrule, but also to do pirate shenanigans! He gets stir crazy really easily too so this helps him out. One day, they got a letter from Aryll (who joins them sometimes) saying that his grandma was not fairing well. The pirates headed straight for Outset island, not stopping for anything. Windy, who was getting ansty, went to clean the ship. When they arrived at Outset however, they found him missing from the boat, with Linebeck panicking over him.

Now for Wild, who is 118. He’s just been chilling at Hateno, he and Zelda helping to rebuild certain parts of Hyrule and restoring the order that was lost. It’s been rather peaceful for him, which is nice for him, tho occasionally he stares off into the distance, regaining memories, being reminded of what he lost.

Age is 19. A knight who patrols around Zora’s Domain, Hyrule thriving due to evil being defeated. Everyone has finally been able to relax, and Age and Mipha were able to get engaged, so he’s been getting ready for that along with doing his job. He takes his job seriously, and the pressure of being the hero hasn’t left him, but life is good for him.

The most embarrassing thing that happened to your lbl characters, go!

Uh… well, Time thinks “dilf” means “dang I love fish” so…

Sky once laughed so hard soup came out of his nose all over Zelda and Groose…

Wild went to twi’s world and got completely wrecked by a goat.

Twi went to Wild’s world and got completely wrecked by a korok.

Warriors got called a “sad little barnacle” by tetra once

Wind got stuck in a tree and Aryll had to help him down.

Minish was kicked out of a milk bar for being a “kid with an adnormally deep voice”

Age had to go to the hospital for eating too many rocks.

Four was on top of a hill and slipped and fell to the bottom.

Hyrule mixed up sugar with salt (didn’t make the meal any worse than it originally was tho)

Legend drank vinegar and never noticed

First is physically incapable of being embarrassed.
