Swan Wars is nice and good but what about ugly duckling Wars.
^ random Wars thought of the day.
Ok ridiculous thoughts aside, I actually wrote two(2) whole lines in the Links Assemble folder today, and I'm so proud of myself because the folder had been collecting dust for quite a while now. So naturally I wanna bother you with it:
It's ridiculous really, the number of Links here. The last time there's more than two he's still with-
Link swallows the lump in his chest, and say they can call him Wars.
Cap is missing his gremlin brothers, who he surely would never see again. Surely.
Lastly, I hope you have a good day, and bye.
YEAAAAH THATS AWESOME, dude i love this au so much i know i say that every time you come tell me about it but by all means: keep yapping i love it
So, I finished that CA wake up scene @crazylittlejester
Idk it's literally just the scene written out with a few swapped names, despite it being absolutely epic in my head... But oh well I did it, that's the important thing. I'll consider putting it on ao3 if I could get a second part of Cap Wars wandering the streets and being sad af.
Anyway here, behold Captain America Warriors, or as I calls him, Captain Warris:
The sound of softly clacking heels is heard outside, stopping right by the door. Sure enough the door opened a second later, and a lady stepped in. The nurse? Link can't be entirely sure.
******
Slowly, Link wakes to the sound of a radio droning on. He listened to it for a minute, before blinking his eyes open in confusion. The ward he's in is plain; simple cot, light walls. Nothing stands out as odd to him. Yet he can't shake the feeling of unease as he sits up.
"Good morning Captain Warris. Or should I say good afternoon?" she smiles as she glimpses at her wrist watch. "It's good to see you finally awake."
Link didn't answer right away, instead letting his senses roam to take in more details of the room. Finally his eyes land on the nurse figure. Noting the way her hair falls messily loose and her clothes don't fit quite right. Noting her total lack of surprise to see him awake as she enters, barely a minute after he wakes.
"Where am I?" He asked slowly.
"You're in a recovery room in New Castleton." The same bland smile, accompanying a perfectly normal answer. One that gave away no information at all.
Silence hung thick in the air as Link's unease grew. Slowly he's picking up more details that doesn't match up. The utter silence from outside the door, from the whole building, despite the noise from the street coming through loud and clear; the sharp scent of antiseptic and nothing else, despite the open window and busy street outside. The recording of a baseball game playing from the radio.
"Where am I, really?" Link asked again as he starts to stand, dread creeping up among the heavy unease sitting in his gut.
"I'm afraid I don't understand," the lady smiled back. Link is getting the feeling that she's not a nurse at all.
"The game. It's from May 1941, I know 'cause I was there." He gestures sharply at the radio, still droning on. "Now I'm gonna ask you again, where am I?"
"Captain Warris-" Ah, there it is, the act slipping. Her smile dipped for a moment into an accessing look, and a small device appears in her hands.
The dread in Link's gut is turning into full blast alarms now. "Who are you?" he demands as he closed the distance. Did he fall into Yiga custody? But why this show?
Before he gets another step further, armed soldiers busts through the door. By pure reflex, Link dodged their batons and managed to flung them at the wall. Through the wall.
Instead of crashing into the next ward, they fall into a drak empty space beyond the thin plaster boards. A filming studio? Ignoring the shouts of the doubious agents, Link took off towards the doors he spotted in the dim distance.
Bursting out into a confusing grand hall of marble and glass, Link start running.
******
Nothing makes sense. Outside the building is not New Castleton, is not even the world that he knows. Giant moving screens covered the sides of towering buildings, stretching down the road as far as eyes can see.
In a daze, Link stopped in the middle of the street. The black cars that rushed to surround him drowned out by the nonsensical world buzzing all around.
Where had he managed to land himself?
More agents in suits and black uniforms flood out from the cars and start to clear the gathering crowded. Distantly, Link realized he's causing quite a scene. He couldn't bring himself to care one bit.
In the midst of it all, he noted dully an one eyed man from one of the cars approaching him. "Hey soldier," the man starts. When Link gives him no response, the man sighs, "Look I'm sorry about that little show back there, but we thought it best to break it to you slowly."
"Break what?" Link asked halfheartedly, still looking around in a daze. There's another kind of dread creeping up on him now, he likes it even less.
"You've been asleep, Cap. For almost seventy years." The one eyed man said slowly. Link blinks, turns to the screens around him without an answer. "Are you gonna be okay?" The man asked again.
Eventually Link finds his words. Eventually he answers, "Yeah." Eventually, as the colorful world blurs past him, he breathes, "Yeah I just. I had a promise."
Hi Jes, I'm here to bother you again with Captain America Warriors again! This time it's with some Wars and Wild stuff.
Since Wars is CA and that means crappy health and probably a long list of allergies before *insert magic girl transformation of choice*, I'm thinking about making Wild and Wars knew each other before Wars got the enhancement. Not exactly as brothers, more like form the same orphanage or neighbors or something.
Anyways what I wanna say is way down the line, when Wild is done with the Hydra/Yiga control and finally joins the chain, he's gonna start cooking again. And for some reason he always gives something separate to Wars. The others chalk it up to Wild playing favorite or something along those lines. But Wars is secretly sobbing into his pillow because as much as Wild claims he doesn't know him, he's the only one ever that still remembers what Wars' like before the war.
I'm getting way ahead of myself considering I'm still stuck on the third chapter of Links Assemble, but I can't stop thinking about spiderman Rulie. Minus the spider part.
Idk he just really really have the 'I still have homework to take care of after patrol why did I do this to myself' kind of vibe. Less of the 'super' superhero kind and just your friendly neighborhood hero, you know. Just a little guy flying around the city taking care of the citizens in general while making a mess out of personal life.
HE DOES. HYRULE IS SO “FRIENDLY NEIGHBORHOOD LITTLE GUY” THATS SO PERFECT FOR HIM
Since Avengers first is leading by a hair on the poll about Marvel au, have a little of this light bulb moment I have yesterday when brainstorming character ideas:
Ravio: Would that be all, Mister Hero
Legend: That would be all, Mister Ravio.
...
Ye they running a big business here, one that may or may not involve a whole ugly ass tower... Imagine the size of Ravio's logo smh
STARK TOWER BUT THE LOGO IS RAVIOS BUNNY MASK OR SOMETHIN
Director Feris/Time: No I don't see a need to tell Wars who we are. He wouldn't recognize us anyway.
Wind: that sounds like a terrible idea, but you're the boss so whatever
Anyways I can't believe how much I'm gonna need to aged Wind up. Not as balding middle aged as agent Coulson is, but still. I mean generally the gang would be older physically in links assemble, but I don't know why, it's just so weird to imagine Wind being older.
I THOUGHT I ANSWERED THIS BUT I ACCIDENTALLY SAVED IT TO MY DRAFTS IM SO SORRY
in my links meet au he’s 19 and i have gotten so used to him being nearly 20 that when I go to write stuff for LU and he’s 13/14 I get confused 😭 I have to struggle to remember how 13/14 yos act because there is definitely a difference between my Tune for LTTC and LU Wind that is MAINLY due to their age gap 😭
