I really should be working on my fic but I've got to get this out of my brain so here we are:

LU Monsters (post October thoughts lol) Au Timeline!

The Links | The Zeldas | Lu Monsters tag

(💙Please comment and like directly from the og post in case Tumblr does weird things again! Tumblr reblogs are ok but never repost, thanks! <3)

The main kingdom of Hyrule is ruled by the good Queen Zelda Artemis and Prince Link (Warriors). Lullaby is their trusted royal guard, one of an elite group of warriors bound by a cloth that prevents most forms of death. Time is a friend (or maybe relative?) to Warriors and one of the army's best knights. Time is married to Malon and the have a few children at this time.

A war breaks out, and Warriors, Artemis, Lullaby, Time, and a young heroic Legend all fight against it. The evil is vanquished and Wars, Artemis, Legend and Malon survive (Lullaby nearly dies but is kept alive by her immortal binding cloth magic). Time, unfortunately, is cursed and killed. At some point after this Malon is turned into a scarecrow, maybe because she knows something about Time's curse and got cursed herself for digging too much into the dark magic that felled her husband.

Warriors and Artemis live out the rest of their lives restoring Hyrule. Legend (a vampire) and Lullaby, literally bound to her duty, are functionality immortal and in it for the long haul. They probably check in with each other now and again. They also keep an eye on Time and Malon's decendents, and Malon's scarecrow is lovingly and reverently passed down the family line. She is mostly still and silent in this form, but if her decendents play her a song, she may still have enough magic to dance...

Many generations later, the kingdom is now ruled by Dusk, Artemis's decendent. Flora is Dusk's cousin, part royalty and part scorceress, and is trying to hone her powers (unsuccessfully) to help the kingdom. Wild is Flora's personal knight at this time and is particularly close with her.

Suddenly, evil breaks out, and a demon king and his monsters ransack Hyrule and Hyrule castle. This takeover is swift, killing Dusk and Wild in the process after they'd both fought fiercely. Flora, as the technical heir to the throne now, is forced into hiding and grief as in just a day, the demon king completely takes over. Using his black magic, he even reconstructs Dusk as a puppet of his own will as further insult. Lullaby acts as Flora's guardian and takes her to a secure location.

Legend returns, much wiser and experienced in fighting darkness. A new fighter also appears: Twilight, a decendent of Time and Malon who recently has been dealing with a bit of lichanthropy. Being a werewolf is a good advantage against the hoards of evil monsters though.

The war is long and drawn out, and while most of the neighboring kingdoms of Woodland, Slimes, Sea, and Sky are spared from major destruction, they are still threatened, and as the war continues the rulers and heroes of these tribes come forth to battle the enemy together (aka they are the Links and Zeldas!) Even the ghosts of past rulers are witnessed lending support (Wars and Artemis).

Flora, meanwhile, has had enough of hiding from Ganon. She has made a breakthrough in her magic, an unexplained surge of confidence when Lullaby is forced to leave her alone to draw monsters away. Flora knows that it is next to impossible to kill Lullaby, but she still refuses to let another person die. Calling upon a deep and ancient magic, she lets loose a desperate plea that the evil monsters die and heroes prevail. 

This nonspecific, desperate spell works exactly as intended in the most unexpected of ways. Flora awakens a light spell that takes out nearly half the army, and her plea for heroes seeps deep into the earth, reanimating her beloved knight and reawakening Time and Malon all at once. Dusk, too, feels her consciousness returning, even though she is still a puppet, and uses her new agency to fight against the evil from the inside.

Not long after that, the heroes and leaders break through the castle defenses, and together, they utterly destroy the king of evil. Peace gradually returns to the land, reunions are held, and the kingdom is given a chance to finally mend.

....

Boom! Finito! I apologize for how this absolutely devestates the canon Zelda timeline I just wanted a way for all the undead monsters to make sense--I see a lore puzzle and I am compelled to connect the pieces >_<

Now back to writing the other LU story! (we hope >u<)

Hey guys do you remember that one Fresh document I made a while ago? No? Well you can forget about it, cause I made another one that’s wayyyyy better:

Fresh Lore

FRESH LORE Reminder: I am not Fresh’s creator, I am just a really big fan of the character. If I find out I’ve gotten some info wrong, I’ll

I actually put some links to back up my info, added even MORE fun facts about Fresh, and fixed some mistakes. Have fun reading broskis!

Hi Vee <3 I would love to chat about sea captain!mattheo. Where did the idea for this series come from? Are you familiar with places where reader lives, and familiar with sea captain lore or do you do lots of research? I'm just so in love with this series and want to know absolutely everything about it <3

~Megan

i’m crying over this question because i would love to nerd out on this with you!!!!! also, it feels like a little peek into my soul because there’s a lot of meee entwined in the reader and the story ☺️

this series was inspired completely by the pics (below) plus my utter fascination with the show deadliest catch which is about the INSANE shit that happens on commercial crabbing boats in alaska — it’s one of the most dangerous jobs in the world (the death rate during the main season averages out to nearly one fisherman per week) while the injury rate for crews is nearly 100% due to the severe weather and dangerous conditions 🫢 so naturally it felt tense and angsty and dramatic. real events from an episode of the show inspired the final chapter 🙃

i’ve actually done like hours of research for this fic ngl 🫣 a lot of that will come into play at the very end so stay tuned!! (i’ve also made plenty of stuff up too) but in general i’ve always lived by the ocean and in beach towns and that’s a big part of who i am so i do feel i can tap into that for my writing here.

fun fact: i took one of the header photos from chapter 6 in my home town (the last one on the right) so this fic is quite literally me-core.

the second i saw the peach schnapps i knew this would be an iconic one

(This is for my LAES au, but it's so completely different from TSBS at this point that I might as well call it my own story. A lot of thought is put into this au, and I'm trying to share more of the overall worldbuilding, this au is not just Pollux kissing Rez).

(If you have questions, give me asks please! Not me begging, I'd just love to tell you more about the story!)

~~~

Urshu:

• He/him

• Part of the Great Empire (or was)

• Favorite food is pasta (extra detail, but Pollux gave him pasta at some point and he was absolutely addicted, had six plates. His amount to being full is three)

~~~

Little information segments:

• His body appears to be untouched, but that is because the physical damage is repaired, not the mental

• Hard shell (only breakable with his species weapons)

• His shell was broken (he didn't look like himself), it healed itself with time with Pollux's help

• Despite the trauma that remained from the empire, he refused to remove the jewelry (did it come from his wife?)

~~~

Little lore segment below!

Warning:

Mentions of imprisonment, horrible conditions, assault, and starvation

"Urshu is a sweet guy, a goodie two shoes. His behavior is unlike the other guards entirely, sweet, compassionate. It was like getting slapped in the face. When he asked how my day was, really caught me off guard, I thought it to be a trick!"

"His entire body is torn apart, his joints are collecting dirt, dust, and even feces. He struggled to walk because the grime had locked his legs in place, horrifying. His exoskeleton is pale, tearing itself apart, eating itself. The prison environments were inhumane, it looked like it had hardly been cleaned. Feces on the floor, mold, a little decayed hay pile. It was cold in there, no windows, not even one. A large puddle from a leak that had spread across his cell had forced him to sit in a uncomfortable and fetal position."

"Seeing a guard in the prisons is unusual, so I stopped my plans to question him. Quickly did I realize just how broken and distraught he seemed. He seemed convinced that the horrid environments and even admitted assaults were deserved because he said five negative words about the Emperor."

"He was desperate, desperate enough to get out of the cell, I promised him food and sunlight to coax him. It's saddening, he seems stuck in past, back in a time where a certain purple kind of his species existed.

"300,000 years was it not?"

"Yes... he is lost and stuck in the past, was told that he would be there for two years. I guess the lack of a window just... made it impossible for him keep track of time, he admitted to believing that time passed slowly when your bored and uncomfortable. He cracked a couple of jokes too-"

"Pollux, is the tracker removed from his arm?"

"This was a very rash decision, it unlike you to pity-"

"He's different from the others, a victim. He seemed so kind, yet also so scared to leave the cell believing that he would be punished further."

"Please, give him some soup while I try and explain the recent historical events to him, he missed out on so much, so so so much"

"..."

"Okay Pollux, but he's your responsibility."

"I know what I'm getting myself into."
