Team Bonding Linkshipping Stories

There's been some recent kerfuffle among enjoyers of the little Team Bonding unofficial series, and said kerfuffle has manifested as... a shitton of explicit monsterfucker and Link/Link fics. I hope you have some extra time this weekend for some light reading.

Under the cut for length...

Presented in chronological order, including the three stories in the series I've written...

This story drops some new lore about the Shadow Beasts that it's important to know for later.

Pairings: TP!Link/Shadow Beasts, special guest star Midna.

A battle with the Twilight Beasts takes an unexpected turn for the Hero of Twilight. It's all manner of wrong, and yet... he can't help but find himself enjoying it.

Immediate sequel to To Be Taken by Twilight, two chapters.

Pairings: TP!Link/Midna/Zelda, leans heavily into MidZel.

In the aftermath of the Twilight Invasion, Link, Zelda, and Midna find time to just breathe.

Spoilers: They do WAY more than just breathe in this story.

The original sin in this series, all because someone in a server once talked about the Shadow Beasts being sexy.

Pairings: A little bit of everyone/Shadow Beasts.

During their journey, the heroes were subject not just to the antagonism of the shadow but to the unique perils that plagued each of their eras. When the swirling portal opened above them and heavy stone spires fell to the earth, Twilight felt every hair on his body stand on end.  There was really no delicate way for Twilight to warn his brothers-in-arms of the danger they were all in.

Pairings: Mainly Time/Twilight with Twi/Wild and Warriors/Legend mentioned as well.

There is another legend that is passed down alongside the story of the golden goddesses, although not many remember the tale. It's the story of two devoted lovers, one of whom was the bearer of the Spirit of Courage, who were separated from one another by the cruelty of fate. When no god nor great spirit would aid the hero in being reunited with his lost love, he was forced to turn to more nefarious methods, cleaving his soul in two. Maybe this is why some of the heroes have crossed paths with one another and connected along their adventures in spite of being separated from each other by entire eras. And maybe in this era, fate has given Twilight a second chance.

Pairing: Time/Twilight.

The group lands in Ordon Village, and there just aren't enough places in Twilight's home for eight heroes to sleep. Some of them may end up needing to share close quarters.

Pairing: Time/Twilight/Wild.

“What’s the matter with you, Rancher?” Warriors’ voice was curiously devoid of genuine emotion, but when he turned his attention back to Twilight, his eyes were bright with– something. "Feeling a bit territorial?” Or: following the events of A Dangerous Game, Twilight finally checks on Wild after their romp with the Shadow Beasts. Well, he tries to. It turns out that Time got there first... or Wild sought out comfort in someone else when he usually reached for him. Twilight doesn't know which option feels worse.

Pairing: Time/Wild.

“What if I feel safer next to you.” Wild countered. “What if I feel safer when I’m touching you?” Turning his head to meet Wild’s eyes, Time slowly slid his hand across Wild’s warm thigh, his lips only inches from Wild’s own. “Is this enough?” he said softly. Wild considered for a moment, his hands reaching for and curling over Time’s own thigh in return. It took both of Wild’s hands to cover the same amount of area as Time was touching on him. “We could be closer,” he whispered in reply, and before Time could respond he was kissing him. OR, Wild and Time together before everyone else.

Pairing: Legend/Warriors.

"For while it could take so much for Legend to finally lay down the hypervigilance trained into him after years and years and years of adventures and mortal peril, being trusted to safeguard his rest filled Warriors’ heart pride." Spinning off from A Dangerous Game and the snaps from the same little breaks (in our soul), Legend and Warriors explore their own aftermath following the encounter with the Shadow Beasts.

Pairing: Four/Shadow Beasts.

This is probably a bad idea, a piece of Four thinks as he makes his way down the trail. He has things to do. Or, well, better things to do. It's just... it's not his fault that not-people are so hard to come by. or, Four makes interesting decisions in the wake of Team Bonding

Pairing: Sky/Hyrule/Shadow Beasts.

He shouldn't have enjoyed it, but Sky couldn't help but find his feet carrying him back to the clearing when they'd oh so recently encountered those monsters from the Twilight.

Commission for @gaylactic-fire and @birdmomblogs

Thought about ch 32 of Confidential when drawing this!! This was also an excuse to design Legend's blue tunic fr. I always imagined the undertunic shiny and very textured, but I didn't have a clear design for the blue overtunic until now, I just knew it should be pretty. I think it's got a deep V in the front, maybe with gold embroidery and/or chains bridging the gap of the V to go with the chain around his waist and the sleeve clasps.

Don't tag as LU, thank u :) also u should read Confidential if ur 18+ and like slow burn :)

[shinobi-addiction]

Exactly one person complained about Linkshipping in the LU fandom and now Linkshipping fics are popping up like daisies on Ao3 the past week.

Keep up the good work, authors!

[orgaslink]

may i humbly request warriors/twilight with 22 for the 'what to say after kisses' prompt. pls and thank u<3

Sorry it has taken me so long to get to this ask! I might come back to this one again at a later date when things have calmed down irl for me, but for now I hope this is good enough to enjoy. Prompt is "fucking come back here right now". cw: alcohol mention - The boys are tipsy but well aware of their actions, the booze has just loosened them up to act on their feelings/urges.

Colourful lights pulsed with the beat of the music, the bass vibrating the floor and pulsing in time with the racing hearts of all those in the club. The scent of cologne and perfume mixing with sweet cocktails and sweat.

They don’t know how it happened, nor do they really care beyond the fact that it felt good and neither wanted it to end. But they were in public, their friends were right there even if the darkness of the venue contrasted with the bright kaleidoscope of lights dancing around the room faster than the gyrating dancers around them.

Twilight pulled away, his lips shining from the saliva swap he and Warriors had somehow engaged in. Warriors watched, rapt, as Twilight’s lower lip was tugged between his teeth, his eyes hooded and gaze coy. They had drifted to the edge of the dancefloor as if in a dream, a trance that was nothing but them and the building tension between them which Twilight took advantage of as he took a step away from Warriors and cocked his brow in invitation.

Want clouded Warriors mind as if the DJ had activated a smoke machine, fogging his judgement and filling his lungs with nothing but the burning need to follow Twilight. Taking a few steps forwards, Twilight only took a few steps back and the chase began.

“Fucking… come back here, right now.” The gravely nature of Warriors voice was likely from the shots they’d taken but it sounded like a growl and had heat radiating from the tips of Twilight’s ears to his toes. The words were a request disguised as a command, but honestly, Twilight wouldn’t mind if Wars took control a little. But right now, it would be fun to play with the captain just a little.

“Make me.” The playful glint in Twilight’s eye had Warriors reaching for him, wanting nothing more than to have the rancher pressed close to him again in an even fiercer liplock than their first.

“You’ll have to do better than that, captain,” Twilight purrs, walking backwards away from the writhing, dancing crowd. “Come get me if you want me.”

And just like that, Twilight was out of sight, swallowed by a new crowd of club goers entering the dancefloor.

Game on! Warriors alcohol fuelled brain challenged as he began his pursuit.

There was no question that he wanted Twilight in that moment. Their friends forgotten in the frenzied atmosphere, Warriors caught up with Twilight just as he’d reached a darkened corner. Twilight turned, hand reaching out for Warriors and then the two connected again, Twilight’s pull matching Warriors’ push as Twilight’s back connected to the wall, Warriors weight against him and his tongue lapping into Twilight’s panting mouth.

The music was reaching a crescendo, rhythm pumping like the blood in their veins as the song took hold and Warriors found himself rolling his hips into Twilight’s where he was pinned to the wall. The beat drop covered the noise that Twilight would have made and Warriors swallowed the moan that threatened to break through their kiss. The heat between them simmered to a near boil, their kiss growing more frenzied by the moment.

Hands wandered, hiking up shirts in the search of clammy flesh as the hunger grew between them. Any thoughts of regret were a problem for tomorrow, right now they had the cover of darkness, the thump of club music and the distraction of each other. Where this night would lead was theirs to decide.

Begging on the floor for thoughts (or doodle ….? 🥺👉🏾👈🏾) on wild and sky getting caught mid sexy time and having to act casual (hands are still shoved down pants and they are both disheveled but they have to keep their voices level to evade suspicion)

Was gonna minific this one but I work so slow, so I figured I'd give you thoughts ❤️

If we're talking LM context (assume we are??) I like to imagine Sky goes off to have a stress wank (he's a stress wank guy to me) in the middle of the night and Wild gets up and follows him a few minutes afterwards. He doesn't really like being left alone with the other Links, even if they're asleep.

He somewhat accidentally, somewhat on purpose, interrupts a flustered Sky - who's very embarrassed and a little annoyed - trying to shove his dick back in his pants and scolding Wild for sneaking up on him. Wild is equally embarrassed and flustered, but he's also blunt enough to outright ask "Can I help you?"... and I mean like... nothing says you can get some outside help relieving tension, right? Sky's heart is thumping out of his chest as he nods, yes.

They're both such flushed messes, but after some fumbling with pants and "Are you sure?"s they end up giving each other a very hushed handjob. They're just about finding a rhythm, allowing little whines and noises to leave their mouths, when they hear someone approaching. Shitshitshit mode engaged. It's Hyrule, and by the time they poke their head around that wall of the maze Sky and Wild have just about covered themselves up.

"Are you guys ok? I um.. noticed you were missing.."

Sky's the one taking over talking, like "Yep! Er... we just wanted to spend some time together... we're fine!" (Fucking smooth Sky) just desperately hoping Hyrule doesn't notice their legs both crossed, trying hard to conceal strained boners, and that the darkness conceals their red faces. Hyrule is... not entirely convinced, but he's too shy to want to.. ahem.. interrupt something, so he nods and heads back to the others.

By the time Wild has a hand over Sky's mouth, concealing his moans as he cums on to Wild's palm, they both decide they aught to sneak farther away next time.

Wildlight - Morning Coffee

So it turns out I cannot stop thinking about the Wildlight Ranch AU. Here’s a lil sketch

Hi, hello,

So, in between getting toyed around with by companies while I’m looking for a job, looming student loans, rent, and having no money, I am now also having to raise money since I got into a car accident. That being said, if anyone is interested, I’m opening limited commissions. As I finish the commission slots, I’ll update when they’re available again. It will be a first come first serve basis, locked in by a deposit, with remaining balance due at the end of the commission.

You can find examples of my writing here, (or by tapping/clicking the tag 'j writin' in the tags of this post) and my more nsft fics here.

I mainly write for Legend of Zelda, since that’s what I’m more familiar with, but I am also familiar with and comfortable writing with Castlevania (the netflix series), and Fullmetal Alchemist. I can write nsfw/smut, as long as the characters are of adult age, not related, and in a consensual setting.

*Must be at least 18 years old to commission*

I cannot write: reader-inserts, OCs

Here’s the tiers you can do:

*Prices updated Sept. 26, 2023*

1,000 words= $10.00 USD

2,000 words= $20.00 USD

3,000 words= $30.00 USD

Open positions/slots at a time: 5

You can DM me here on tumblr (jackalsarchive) or discord (jackalshepherd) to claim a position and discuss the commission. As a base line I'd want to know:

-Word count

-Content of the writing

-After payment/deposit is sent, how do you want it delivered- through email, or shared here, etc.?

For now, payments will be through my Venmo, Ko-fi, or PayPal. I will need a half payment deposit before I start, and to lock you in as on the list.

I will keep in contact as well to touch base on commission progress, as it may vary depending on word length, and contents. I won’t leave someone hanging, and I wouldn’t want to take too long anyways.

Thank you for reading, and I hope you have a good day.

[st0rmyskies]

I’m new to the LU fandom, I really love the series but I’m kinda confused about the whole link/link shippings. It’s not something I have a real issue with as long as the links in question aren’t related by blood or anything, but I’m really confused how the ships came to be????

Wildlight especially because yes, there’s definitely chemistry and a deep bond between them, but I’ve never thought about their relationship going beyond that and into sexual????

I always kinda felt like they’d be queer-platonic, like, they’re so close their relationship can’t be defined as purely platonic but it’s not sexual. There’s a lot of love and affection but it doesn’t fall neatly into romantic either?

They’re just. Two people who really care about each other and want to enjoy their time together while it lasts to the fullest and just. Experience life with the other by their side.

Mostly I just feel really confused and like I’m lacking a lot of information. I’m sorry if this doesn’t make sense or seems rude, I just don’t understand in general, and thought maybe you could provide some insight???

So I, for example, don't like mango. Some people love mango but and think apples are boring, and I would clutch my pearls about that and go on a 40 minute tirade about how apples are the shit. The same can be said for shipping. When it comes to ships, both with regard to types of ships and pairings, a lot of it comes down to personal preference. It's as simple as that.

That's the main idea here, anon. There's not any information you're missing. The rest is under the cut for specifics about Wildlight and other Linkships.

No matter how you ship Wild and Twilight, with even the various flavors of queerplatonic or simple friendship being considered "shipping" of sorts for the purposes of this conversation, as you said: it's obvious that the two of them have chemistry. They have history together. They look to one another when Time says cryptic shit like two siblings wondering if that lore drop from dad was true or not. Twilight scolds Wild for getting himself injured in defense of Wind and Wild doesn't hesitate to give it back to him a bit. In the most recent arc, while everyone on the team is affected by Twilight's injury in one way or another, Wild is the one who loses his mind a bit over the whole thing. Their bond runs deep.

Like you, there is a huge group of fans who look at that relationship and enjoy that flavor of queerplatonic rep. They choose to ship Wild and Twilight in that way, and that's cool. But some of us look at the same relationship and prefer to explore the spicier side of things under the same context, and that's cool too. There was recently a text post I reblogged that went something long the lines of fic writers "using preestablished relationships to give sex [in their works] emotional context." Without having to write thousands of words of backstory to get two people together, sometimes we as fic writers lean on the source material to establish the soft stuff so we can get right into the more hardcore fare. It's a fun little thought experiment to consider how two characters like Twi and Wild who have such obvious caring for one another in canon might engage with one another behind the scenes.

The same can be said for characters who don't seem to have a whole ton of on-screen chemistry, as it were. Sky is very obviously in love with his Zelda, and that's part of the reason why he was the focus of the poly!Sky series. Because yes, SS Zelink is adorable, but what if Sky wasn't limited to that relationship alone? How would his relationships look like with Twilight, with Warriors, with Time? For me, it's a fun exploration and skill-development exercise to write believable romantic and/or sexual relationships that you wouldn't expect in-universe, especially since they firmly aren't established in the source material.

I, for one, also enjoy exploring both healthy and unhealthy sexual relationships through fiction. By far, my favorite kind of couple to write has to be the train wreck: those who bring out the worst in one another and have incendiary chemistry in the bedroom. HSH WarrTime falls into this category, and Twilight/Dark does too in a different sense. It's that journey from "Omg this would NEVER work" to "Dark has one person and one person only he will behave for" that never fails to hook me.

In the end, it boils down to the same reason why most restaurants have such a diverse menu. Some people prefer one flavor of cooked-up relationships, others may prefer another. Some of us change tastes depending on the day. And maybe in relationships that you personally don't see romance or a sexual connection, to someone else it looks plain as day.

And that's all totally okay.
