When you're finally tall enough to ride the roller coaster and dad has to help you off because you're dizzy:

The face of a man who has been waiting for this very moment:

That's a happy lad right there, love to see it. Say what you will about Legend, but come on, they're all hoarders who always keep around every niche item that serves one purpose in case it ever comes in handy.

So Time is allowed to be the downer, yet the second any of the boys are it's like nope be positive! Sunshine and rainbows kids, adventures are fun!

Time please, the boy's eyes just got scorched medium rare let him be the grumpy one for a bit:

But it's Wind so it lasts for less than 5 seconds, because Four untreasures a map and Wind is very suddenly a very happy sailor scout again. The way he immediately takes over navigation is so endearing; you could never ever get lost with this boy on the team.

Awesome chapter. Love this trio!

Wars, Wild, Twilight and Sky were fighting for their lives in their own basement gauntlets of death. Hyrule and Legend got a reward room. Meanwhile our trio:

This is so fun! I love Zelda puzzles and this was a delight to read! I think I've got it Four.

So from this panel:

Test out which lever does what, and it was my understanding that the left (lever 1) turns the left and middle pillars clockwise. The right lever (lever 2) turns the middle and right pillars anticlockwise. And you want them all aligned so that the owl eyes face the incoming light.

The order of levers to pull (gently) is:

1 - 2 - 1 - 1 - 2 - 2

I think. Idk, I tried it out early this morning...

The Chain need to work on their communication skills. They each have their own ways of tackling problems, but if they don't say aloud what they're doing they're just going to bump into each other and cause collateral damage.

Time immediately drawing his sword when the door shut is just perfect. Not only does he instantly switch to attack mode when the situation changes but he knew Four would pull out the lamp and assess the situation probably quicker than he could since Time's adventure skills are a little rusty.

That said, even Wind is impressed with his reflexes. Old man or not, Time's still got it.

These chapters were fire.

Off screen Wild is definitely gonna turn the question on him. Gremlin younger sibling type payback.

This one silly lil' guy checking out Warriors, even when his hair's a static mess he's still turning heads.

[legendofzoodles]

Innkeeper: Hello travellers! Welcome to our establishment, and you are?

Wild: Hungry.

Warriors: Hot.

Legend: Dying.

Sky: Sleepy.

Twilight: Completely human.

Hyrule: Hylian...?

Wind: A badass.

Time: Not here.

Four: The only normal person in this group, nice to meet you. Room for nine please.

[legendofzoodles]

Time: Why is Warriors crying?

Wind: The guy actually said no foods, not even onions, could make him cry.

Time: And so you...put onion slices over his eyes while he was napping?

Wind: Nah. If I wanted to prove him wrong with onions I'd have just asked Wild to let him meal prep.

Time: So what did you do?

Wind: [grinning] I threw a watermelon at him when he woke up.

Time: [dad glare of imminent punishment]

Wind: Wild got a picture of the exact impact. Wanna see?!

Time: ...

Time: Show me the slate.

Warriors: [sobbing in the background] Dear Hylia IT GOT IN MY EYES!!!

[legendofzoodles]

Same pose as the shrine statues. Wonder what what it's for?

Warriors: [shows old wise Time an artifact illustration] Do you know what this is?

Time: [grave tone] Wars, you deserve the truth. And the truth is...

Time: I have no idea what that thing is I’ve never seen it before in my life.

Warriors: [walks off] I'll ask Four.

Time: [sips mug]

Time: [suddenly explains what it is in excruciating detail]

Twilight: [sitting across from him] Why didn’t you tell him?!

Time: He needs to learn how to figure things out on his own. I won’t always be there for him. 

Twilight: He’s 27.

Time: And it’s time he learned the way of the world.  

[legendofzoodles]

If the Chain were kidnapped

Time sternly dads the punks into not being bad people. Has the experience and wisdom to pull an Uncle Iroh and get them to sort their lives out. Except Time doesn't actually have to say anything, just the mere presence of a strong father figure is enough to get the kidnappers to change their ways. That look in his eyes. He's not mad, he's just disappointed.

Warriors plays along. Weaves a sob story told so well it does lower their guard. In a couple hours he's safely secured their entire crime history, family backgrounds, and blackmail material for the authorities of this era to lock them away for life. Goal achieved, he suddenly completely switches up character, calmly thanking them for their time before breaking out his restraints and single handedly messing them all up.

Twilight: the silent type. Stares them down until they start sweating. His vibe radiates: “I supplexed gorons when I was a teenager. I'm not trapped in here with you, you're trapped here with me.” Before the kidnappers can start arguing about who has to stay in the room with him, Twilight just gets up, his restraints falling like wet paper, and walks out the door while they cower in the corner fearing for their lives.

Sky kills them with kindness. Starts with small shallow compliments which as they respond positively to and end up telling him more about themselves, letting his affirmations hit deeper and deeper until they're convinced to change their ways. To mark this new chapter in their lives he leads them to the nearest goddess statue to repent to his girlfriend.

Legend comes out of the gate tearing his captors a new one. But somehow, the insults cut a little too close to home. Next thing you know, they’re defending themselves, then explaining, then venting. Legend keeps calling them pathetic, but in a way that weirdly encourages them to keep going. So oddly, it becomes a group trauma dump session.

Hyrule: [positioned outside the room] Shouldn't we go in there and get him? It sounds like a fight's about to break out.

Sky: [equipping a clipboard and quill] No no, let him cook. He's making great progress.

With Wild the chain's rescue mission becomes trying to get him back on the team. Cuz you see, Wild's with the kidnappers now. Wasn’t even tied up to begin with. Just vibing in the corner eating all their food. His lack of any sense of danger or fear made them think he was a new recruit. He went along with it, and started assigning them nicknames and chore duties. Grandmaster reverse stockholm syndrome—they start following his lead.

Four plays mind games. Starts casual: “What’s your name?” “What motivates you?” “What’s your greatest regret?” By the first hour he’s ignited a civil war with members either fighting tooth and nail against their fellow men or suffering spirals of deep existential dread. There's a reason Four doesn't share much of what goes on in his head because this is the end result, and no one is having fun anymore. Except Four and his shadow.

Hyrule plays actual games. At first Hyrule just got bored and so interrupted their evil plan spiel offering to bet on how long it would take him to escape. However, that led to other bets being made, dumb challenges like how many rupees one can stack before they collapse, winner keeps their pile of the pool. He gets so into these games he completely forgets he was supposed to be escaping. And his captors forget he has backup coming.

Twilight: [knocking down the door] Hyrule! Don't worry it's okay! We're here to...wait, are you gambling right now?

Hyrule: [rolling dice] Wait five more minutes. It's my turn and I'm definitely gonna win!

Warriors: We didn't come here to stop one crime just to walk in on you committing one!

Hyrule: One? [pulls out a near empty wallet]

Twilight: [turning to Warriors] He's bankrupted us.

Warriors: [face palming] I told Time not to let Hyrule carry the group travel funds.

Wind is pretty good at playing the 'innocent grandma’s boi' shtick. Will get them to fawn over him, give him life advice, offer snacks, meanwhile he’s already stolen all their keys and is just waiting for nightfall. That said, if the chain don't arrive quick enough Wind's captors might indulge the boy and give him his first tattoo or piercing.

Thanks for reading! Some of these are more unserious than others.

How each member of the chain laughs

[legendofzoodles]

Warriors: Old man we've held an intervention and we all agree that you need to cut back on the milk.

Time: [nodding solemnly] That is fair, I've never much been a man to drink. Don't know how it happened really.

Time: I start today.

[cue an explosion a couple hundred metres away, throwing up debris, monsters, the chain's disaster duo and one unfortunate white cloaked casualty hero]

Warriors: Hylia help us, isn't that the monster camp we were going to dispatch after lunch?

Time: [uncorking a bottle of milk] I start tomorrow.

Why does their teamwork look so mischievous?

[legendofzoodles]

I love this image so much it has so much personality. You just know Time gave the two a talk about keeping within eyesight at all times, Four is chill with that but Wind wants to let loose.

Wind is practically bouncing off the walls let him do something!

Wind: [sees bee on Legend's arm]

Wind: Ooooooh Hylia.

Wind: [rolls up Wild's wanted poster]

Wind: Ledge...don't move..

Legend: Wha...?

Wind: [using poster as a megaphone] THERE'S A FUCKING BEE ON LEGEND!

Twilight: [somewhere in the distance] LANGUAGE!

Sky: [running with the bug net] Thanks Sailor!

[legendofzoodles]

Four: Try explaining your fight with Ganon or whatever evil was wrecking your kingdom, but without context.

Wind: Old-ass wizard kicks around some minors while the only other adult is a shapeshifting boat-man who prioritised claiming some triangles. Beat that. 

Four: I’m sorry, what?

Wind: That’s how Grandma saw it. But I get it, he did take a few pot shots at me and especially Tetra.

Time: [remembering when Ganondorf, chasing after Zelda on horseback, stopped his pursuit solely to blast a 9 year old in the face and monologue]

Time: Sounds like him.
