Shadow of a Deity (A LU/FoT crossover)

Chapter 1: A Portal Awry

Link had a mask that was a deity. In one universe, that deity became a father. In another, he didn't. What happens when those two realities collide?

The portal was askew as the nine heroes named Link tumbled out of it. 

The journey had not been a good one. Something had gone wrong.  Instead of walking calmly between one time and the next, they had fallen into this new one.  All the other trips had been a seamless journey, instantaneous from one place to another.  This had taken too long, with a pressure that squeezed and pulled at them, like their destination was somewhere they didn't belong. Instead of an open door, the portal was a crack in a wall they had to force their way through.  When they finally found fresh air, they stumbled, fell and nearly lost the contents of their stomachs as they sprawled under the great, spreading branches of many trees in a deep, dark woods. 

"Where are we? When are we?" Legend climbed shakily to his feet, sharp eyes taking in every detail.  There were so many dark forests in Hyrule over many years that they could be anywhen at all.  He spun at the sound and feel of collapsing magic and watched as the portal fizzled away into nothing.  "Well, there's that. We're trapped here."

(Read the rest on AO3!)

Continuity for this fic is as follows: Father of Time: After the second Termina visit, before the Hebra trip, probably before the Navi reveal Linked Universe: After the whole Dawn storyline, most likely before the temple.

Drabble prompt: in the mines

The entrance to the mine loomed over them like a cold, black tomb. Nothing seemed to stir within.

"I vote no," Wind announced promptly, crossing his arms as he squinted into the darkness.

Wild picked up a small stone and rolled it between his palms before throwing it into the mine. It vanished amidst the shadows with an echo that carried for far too long. Wild's ears twitched uncertainly. "Could be fun?"

"A glowing review," Legend drawled. He turned to Hyrule with obvious doubt. "You're sure there isn't another way? I've heard of this place--even in my time, Moria was dangerous."

"There's only the mountain pass. I don't think we have a choice."

"Hyrule's right," Time answered, though he sounded troubled. "The wizzrobes have made the pass too dangerous. We'd freeze before we ever reached the other side. The only way is through." Despite his words, he angled himself between the younger heroes and the mine.

Twilight began tying a bandana around the lower half of his face. "Smells like death. A lot of it. And 'blins."

"Anything else?" Four asked resignedly.

"... trolls, too."

Legend and Sky harmonized as they groaned.

While the others regretted every choice that led to this moment, Warriors approached Time and quietly asked, "What about our little tagalong?"

"I'm not sure," Time answered just as quietly. "I can't fathom why the Skull Kid would be following us, or how, but he hasn't caused trouble yet."

"This is going to be a disaster, mark my words."

"Marked, Captain," Time answered wryly. Louder, he said, "Alright, let's move out. Keep your wits about you, limit chatter, and absolutely no wandering."

Wild smiled innocently, but Hyrule didn't appear to notice Time's pointed look. Instead, he cast a wary glance across the small lake they'd passed earlier. The water rippled. "I think... we have a problem," Hyrule warned.

Warriors didn't hesitate to draw his sword. "And so it begins."

Oh DO tell me more about the Eveni LU little drabbly thing

You know what, I’ll just show you the part I actually wrote out, since the beginning bit is actually pretty well done.

There’s more to it then this obviously, but this is the part that one night I just wrote out because I was in the mood. this is what I do when I’m bored XD

(For those unaware, Eveni is Link (Twilight in this case) and Midna’s son.)

————————————————————

Link sprints through the portal with a hand held tightly to his son.

That black lizalfos had nearly killed him, killed them both, and the portal was the last place to go. He’s bleeding from a slice to his arm and his head is spinning from dark magic, but Eveni is unhurt, and that’s all that matters.

He breathes in shakily as he holds his son to his chest, looking up at their new surroundings.

They’re in a forest, but it’s much different from the one they were in before jumping through the portal. It’s smaller, younger, and deciduous trees instead of pines, late afternoon sunlight shining through their leaves.

It’s also fall. Which is odd, because it had been late spring where he’d just been.

“Huh,” he says absently, making sure the sling securing Eveni to his chest is tight, “well that’s a might strange.”

His son babbles in seeming agreement.

Link no more hears the presence behind him then senses it, leaping out of the way as a blade suddenly swings through the portal. Eveni shrieks and he bolts, noting that he’s not on any sort of trail or anything as he sprints.

Leaves crunch under his feet and roots stick up from the ground to try and trip him, but he can’t afford to slow down. He can still hear the lizalfos chasing him, and while it’d be so much faster to be a wolf, it’s also a lot harder to hold a baby when you don’t have arms.

Something swipes at his face and as Link jerks to avoid it he stumbles, and claws gouge into the back of his knee.

He sprawls to the ground with a cry, turning and clutching Eveni so he doesn’t hurt him inadvertently, and winces as he lies in the dirt for a second. Link hears footsteps and begins to scramble for his shield when his world lurches, something throwing him backwards and pinning him to a large tree.

And snatching Eveni out of his arms.

Link shouts as the black lizalfos steps forward, holding up his baby as it looks at him with an almost amused expression.

Eveni begins to cry.

“Let him go,” Link nearly roars, but whatever is holding him does not budge even from his in no way measly strength. It’s magic or something— there’s nothing visibly holding him back. “I’m who you’re after let him go he’s done nothing—!”

The lizalfos grins and peels back the blanket, licking its chops.

Link feels an all-encompassing fear crash over him and he shouts with pure panic and rage as he pulls with all his might to break free, struggling madly and feeling utterly helpless as the lizalfos looks hungrily at his son.

An arrow slams into the lizard’s knee.

It screeches, and the magic holding Link fades enough for him to break himself free and leap at the monster, kicking and clawing at its face. It hisses angrily but Link manages to grab his son out of its grasp, holding him close as he scrambles backwards.

He takes a second to thank the spirits Eveni is okay, then grabs for his sword as he tries to soothe the wailing baby and also keep an eye on the lizalfos.

But the last of these ends up being unnecessary.

The lizalfos is already gone, no sign of it but a trail of black blood leading off into the woods. In it’s place are three hylians, one holding a bow, who are looking at him with wide, concerned eyes. Several more are charging into the woods, and Link assumes they’re chasing the escaped monster.

“Sir is your baby okay?” asks one, a short kid with a green bandana in his fringe. He takes a hesitant step forward. “Are you okay?”

Link shuffles back, unsure of what to think of these men. They must have shot the monster, but he’s in a completely unfamiliar location and situation here.

And his head is still spinning from having watched Eveni nearly die.

“Wh... do you...” he asks, clutching his son and ignoring how there’s blood running down both his arm and leg now. “Where am I?”

A large man, wearing armor that’s eerily familiar, holds out a placating hand, sheathing his sword with the other.

“A place called Akkala, or so I’m told,” he says gently, obviously trying to calm Link down, “We’re hunting the lizalfos... or perhaps he’s hunting us. I’m sure you’ve noticed it’s not a regular one of its kind.”

Link bares his teeth in a snarl without meaning to as he thinks of how the monster grabbed Eveni, and the men inch back a bit. He pushes down the growl in his throat and sighs, suddenly exhausted.

“It... chased us through some portal,” he says, blinking tiredly. “Was going for me. Specifically.”

The teenager with the bow glowers. “How many more of us is it going to drag into this? Can’t it just leave us alone already?”

Eveni lets out another wail and Link turns his attention fully to him, holding him closer and gently soothing him.

“Hey, hey it’s okay buddy it’s okay, Daddy’s got you, he’s gone,” he whispers, and his son’s wailing slowly fades to more quiet whimpers. The man in the armor steps closer then, and offers him a cautious hand. Link takes it, stumbling with his bad leg, and the man doesn’t let go once he’s upright, giving him a concerned look-over.

Link meets his eye (the other is closed, a scar marring the lid) and for some reason... he feels that he can completely trust the man in front of him.

“Thank you for assisting me,” Link says gratefully, giving the man’s arm a squeeze. “You helped protect my son, and I can’t thank you enough for that.”

The man nods, and gives him a small smile. “Our pleasure. I’m glad he’s okay. Both of you.”

Eveni rubs his face up to Link’s chest with a whimper, and he shushes him again, running a hand over his head.

You’re okay, you’re okay.

“Hey, is your name Link?” the teenager with the bow abruptly asks. Link snaps his head up and stares at him, his already confused brain not quite up to figuring that one out.

“Wh— yes..? How’d you... do I know you?” he asks in confusion, and the kid with the bandana lets out a small laugh.

“We’ll explain, but uh, why don’t you sit and drink a potion first. You’re looking sort of... pale.”

Link doesn’t hesitate long before agreeing. These people, though they’re obviously all well-equipped fighters, don’t mean him any harm, and helped with protecting Eveni (which makes them more than okay in his book). They seem to be adventurers similar to himself, if he’d have to take a guess, or possibly monster hunters of some sort. Not to mention...

...there’s an odd sense of familiarity about them as well.

But Link is too tired to dwell on it much, so he merely follows the group, brushing a spot of blood off Eveni where it dripped from his arm.

The mystery can wait for now.

[batrogers]

Ohhhh no.

Cia's gonna be in for a nasty surprise when she finds out Chief can anticipate her but how long will it take indeed.... Yikes (TM). You're so mean!

Febuwhump Day 4: Obedience

Warnings: Cia being a Creep with a capital C (aimed at Chief, not Wind), blood, implied MCD

Chief is from @thatbrokenpromise by @batrogers

****

There was a child. An honest-to-goddess child, traveling with the other group of heroes as one of their own. The Hero of the Wind was capable, as Outset had proven time and again, but this one was too young. Younger than Chief himself had been at the start of his first quest, and without any of the experience an extra ten years would bring.

There was more blood than Chief ever wanted to see, pouring from a gash in the child’s chest.

He didn’t see what had injured Wind- arrow or blade, it didn’t matter yet, not until Chief reached him. He had done this too many times, dealt with injuries that would give him lasting nightmares, so that wasn’t even the problem. An invisible wall materialized between them, between one blink and the next, and it was now that Chief started to truly panic. He was so close, the kid needed his help- He spun on his heel, desperate to find a new path through this sinister maze.

Wind was screaming, in agony and terrified because he had lost sight of the medic.

“I’m coming!” Chief called, running and weaving through walls of hedges and brick. “You’re gonna be okay, I-”

He turned yet another corner, coming face-to-face with Cia.

That wide, calculating grin was horrifyingly familiar, yet the witch didn’t return any recognition of him. This Cia knew Warriors, not Prince- but knowing her, it wouldn’t make much of a difference.

“Not so fast, darling,” Cia purred, her confidence an act that played all too well in her favor. “The Hero of Wind won’t be receiving any help today. This is where his story ends. I’ve seen it, and I can’t let you change that.”

Chief tried to argue, but Cia had already wrapped a paralyzing spell around his body. He made a strangled sound, glaring at her with equal parts fury and desperation.

Wind’s voice was getting weaker with every second that passed.

Cia stepped closer, burying her hand in Chief’s hair and giggling cruelly when he whined. “Here’s what I know will happen: the Hero of Wind is going to die here, alone and unaided. And you, my dear, are going to obey me.”

I finally started writing again! And so I offer a snippet of the thing I'm writing.

And, of course, it ends up being One Piece. I currently have a ton of ideas, with only two of them starting to become actual fics. So, I figured that I would share one of them for now. It'll be a crossover fic with Linked Universe where Sanji gets shoved right into LU via Devil Fruit. I don't have all of the ideas in place yet, but I hope y'all enjoy it. I'll share the other one later on, which will continue my trend of writing fics with copious amounts of pain and suffering ^u^

[maidragoste]

watching the percy jackson series made me reread that fic, i published it before the pandemic on wattpad and never finished writing. The best thing about that fic were the comments because there were people who shipped the OC with Percy, others with Annabeth and some with Luke but what I will never get over is that they ship her with HADES

[gemglyph]

I'm supposed to be going to bed now so I'm dropping this in your askbox for you to reply to whenever you have the time.

I saw that you finished reading Room of Swords and oh my goodness, it has been forever since I thought about that comic. (Okay so maybe 2-3 years, but that's basically forever.)

That story was insane. I got so much emotional whiplash from reading that thing.

I AM STILL EXPERIENCING THE EMOTIONAL WHIPLASH!!!

Sorry for the yelling I am just still reeling from that experience. Room of Swords is one hell of an experience. I finished all of it and I’m just

I’m screaming!! Crying!!! I have so many theories!!! I’m stopping myself from doing an immediate reread. I need to recover

Also!! I hope you sleep well! Good night friend :D

How to Forge a Chain in Nine Easy Links

Yui Shaw was not a hero chosen by the goddesses, but somehow she and Ken ended up here anyway- through a portal, talking with other heroes of ages long since gone by.

[batrogers]

Summary:

Link hadn’t seen a Gerudo woman in years, but they were unmistakable once you knew them. His stride faltered a little as every nerve in his skin went on the defensive. The woman was slender, not tall at all, and pale: probably of mixed heritage, especially with dyed hair: the red had grown out enough to show blond at the root. But mixed children were (had been) common enough, and her clothes and weapons and jewellery were dead on. The rest of the Chain didn’t even blink.

Rating T, for moderate non-graphic violence and attempted murder. LU Time's POV, presumes there was recent war with the Gerudo in the twenty years he will not speak of to the Chain, and he's not exactly resolved that trauma...

AU Crossover between Linked Universe and my own Linkverse, That Broken Promise in which Time does not realize he's run into another version of himself who also lived through war in a very different context than his...

( in shortest summery a strange portal splits the chain and brings them to a New land known as Alagaësia.)

Legend ends up getting separated from the chain in a portal and ends up in a strange place. At first he thought maybe some sort of Hyrule but it becomes clear that is not the case. Well all he can do is try and survive the cell he now found himself in after a mistaken identity. In short these humans think he’s something called an “elf”. Wth.

Wonder where the rest of the chain is? :)

Starts off with a main legend Pov but i will switch Povs every so often.

(Current events: Legend is separated from the chain in a botched portal and ends up somewhere he doesn’t recognize. He decides to enter the city he can see just a short ways off.)

The Hero of Hyrule and Strife's Delivery Service

Globs of bloody saliva flew from the monster’s mouth as it screeched one final time. Lurching forward, it snapped its teeth in defiance once, twice, then toppled over. Its many tentacles twitched in a pattern not unlike a thready heartbeat before the monster stilled altogether. 

Hyrule gulped in desperate breaths and hesitantly lowered his blade. Despite the frigid temperature, sweat made his tunic cling to his back. Goosebumps broke out across his skin; already, his fingers felt stiff with cold, and every breath burned like fire in the back of his throat. “Who—” He wetted his lips and tried again. “Who’re you?”

On the other side of the monster, a man in a strange, black outfit swung his sword up and over his shoulder until it rested flat against his back. The blade was longer than Hyrule was tall, but the motion appeared effortless. “Could ask the same of you,” the man said quietly.

Instinct made Hyrule suspicious of the situation, though he fought to remind himself that sometimes people were simply good. His time with the others had taught him that. “My name is Hyrule. I got separated from my friends.”

“Hm,” the man answered noncommittally, crossing his arms. “Weird place for a friendly weekend getaway.”

“I’m not actually sure where I am.”

If anything, the man looked even less impressed than before. “Twenty miles south of Gaea’s Cliff.” He frowned briefly at the monster, then glanced back at Hyrule. His eyes seemed to glow in the fading light. “Treasure hunter?” 

“Ah, sure,” Hyrule answered awkwardly. It sounded better than “destined hero on a quest across timelines.” “Pardon, you never said who you are…?”

“Just a delivery boy.”

“A… delivery boy,” Hyrule repeated. He eyed the fallen monster again. “And that?”

“Malboro.” 

Hyrule shook his head. He was beginning to shiver in earnest. “Never heard of—Whoa!” Suddenly, the monster dissolved into blue-green shimmering light. Within seconds, nothing remained of the fight except trampled snow. Hyrule couldn’t help but think of Wild’s sheikah tech. “Did it teleport?”

The man raised both brows. “It returned to the lifestream.”

 “Right…” He rubbed his arms, teeth clacking faintly. He hoped the others had landed somewhere a little warmer. “Well, thank you for your help. That, ah, malboro took me by surprise.” 

“It was a lucky hit.”

Hyrule eyed that ridiculous sword again. “Sure.”

The man sighed. “Maybe you should call your friends.”

“Oh, um, sure.” Hyrule shrugged, then cupped his hands around his mouth. “Legend! Time! Anybody! Hello?” His voice echoed faintly before it succumbed to the sounds of nature. Nobody called back.

“I meant…” The man huffed. “Do you not have a phone?”

“A phone?” Hyrule asked, ears twitching uncertainly.

The man blinked at him. For a moment, his eyes looked more green than blue. “Never mind. You’re clearly not…” He waved vaguely toward Hyrule. 

“Not what?” 

“Nothing. Come on, let’s mosey. Whatever you are, you’ll freeze to death without shelter. Probably.” That said, the man turned on his heels and began striding across the icy tundra.

“But…” Hyrule hurried to catch up. His toes felt numb. “What about my friends?”

“I’ll find them.” Somehow, the man sounded both confident and unenthused. Hyrule thought he and Legend might get along. 

“Okay, thanks. I can help, though!” It would only be right, and besides, Hyrule still didn’t entirely trust this guy. And it was obvious the feeling was mutual. “Are you not cold?” 

“No.”

“No to help, or no to the cold?”

“Yes.”

Hyrule fought a sigh of his own. He followed the delivery boy and prayed this wasn’t a new Link. 

[aparticularbandit]

me, going back over epic superhero crossover and rereading the singular fic i have posted from it and thinking about the thin line trilogy and oh.

....

girl gang > cast of horrors

....

but that version of rose needs to meet junko because i think junko could learn a lot from someone who did to lint what rose did to her.

....

maybe not. junko does just fine scooping out eyes with a curry spoon she's been using to eat. i don't think she needs to learn stuff from rose, actually.

....

also i don't want junko deciding to replace someone's eye with a mystery bomb.

(she absolutely would, though.)
