Darkie: Do you know how many bones the hylian body has? It's 206. They start with 369 when they're babies but they fuse. Wouldn't you want to go back? Have as many bones as a baby? What if I could help you?

Shadow: Hi, yeah, what the actual, literal, GENUINE fuck does this mean?

[tentimesthecourage]

To the chain: oh, I was going to say how y'all seemed to be chained together in this adventure

Rinku: -snorts-

Wild: -shoulders are shaking with laughter-

Time: -smirks-

Twilight: -that startles a laugh out of him-

Legend: -groans-

Hyrule: -giggling softly-

Sky: -smiles-

Warriors: -sighs faintly, mouth twitching-

Wind: -cackles-

Rhythm: -quiet groan, trying not to smile-

Four: -shakes his head with a small smile-

Colors: -varied reactions, but Blue's groan matches Legend's-

Shadow: Oh my goddesses...

Darkie: -rolls his eyes with a faint smirk-

[tentimesthecourage]

What was your worst day?

Only question, I have to transfer this "3%" of my sight.

Everyone: ...

Time: No comment.

Twilight: The first day of my adventure...

Sky: Mmph... -looks away-

Four: -folds his arms and frowns- The first time I went into town after my second journey.

Legend: None of your business. -The day he lost her-

Hyrule: I... don't want to think about it.

Warriors: The day the war began...

Wind: ...the day my sister was taken. -Worst day and worst birthday-

Wild:

Rinku:

Both: -look at each other- The day of the Calamity.

Rhythm: -lowers his head- The day I lost everyone again...

Darkie: -wraps an arm around him- The day I lost my little brother.

Shadow: -looks away, scowling- No comment.

Warriors: Darkie, are you a top or a bottom?

Darkie: I’m a problem.

Well, that was a massive explosion. No doubt that alerted the rest of the Chain but the current group could not bring themselves to care.

Exhaustion was obvious, pain was also obvious. Not a single one of them had managed to stay on their feet.

The smoke was clearing, that was good.

Four managed to sit up first, rubbing his aching head. His gaze fell to the center of the circle, stilling as he noticed to figures sitting up as well.

“Ugh... That was... unpleasant.” The familiar voice sent a jolt of hope through his heart.

“Shadow...?” The speaker quieted, but it didn’t take long for a familiar face to become visible as the area cleared fully. A half grin crossed Shadow’s face as he cocked his head.

“Hey, looks like things went well!”

“Shadow!” Ignoring the aches in his body, Four jumped to his feet and rushed over to cling to the other tightly. Shadow wobbled with a yelp before laughing as he clung back just tight.

“Goddesses... I missed you so much...”

“I missed you too...”

They both perked as they heard another voice shouting.

Rhythm couldn’t believe it. He was here, he was really here! Tears were streaming down his face as he took a few shaky steps towards the other, almost hesitant. But then their eyes met and Darkie smiled, holding his arms out to him.

And he broke.

“DARKIE!” He ran to him and threw his arms around him, burying his face against his chest. The older held him tight, running his fingers through his hair and hushing him softly.

“It’s okay, I’m here... I’m here... I’m not going anywhere, I promise...” 

He lifted gaze to look at the others steadily regaining themselves, over to the other duo who still hadn’t let go of each other, and then back down to Rhythm who hadn’t lifted his head. He tightened his hold on him and sighed heavily.

Talking could wait, right now, he just wanted to hold his little brother for as long as he could.

Can I give all of them a hug and some cookies???

Rhythm: I don't do well with hugs from strangers... sorry. -sheepish smile- And I'd feel bad if I took the cookies without the hug.

Darkie: Not... really into hugs from strangers, sorry.

Wild: I'll take both! Thank you!

Rinku: Of course you would. -rolls his eyes playfully-

Wild: -sticks his tongue out at his twin-

Four: Can you two behave?

Both: No.

Four: -sigh-

Shadow: Did you expect anything different?

Four: When it comes to those two? Not really.

Rinku: Would you two stop talking about us and answer the question?

Both: Oh, right.

Four: -sheepish smile- I don't mind a hug.

Shadow: Me either!

Legend: Don't touch me.

Hyrule: I don't mind a hug?

Sky: Neither do I.

Warriors: Ah... no thank you, to both.

Time: Agreed.

Twilight: I don't mind both either.

Wind: Both!!

All: Thank you

[tentimesthecourage]

oh my god i’m new here but who is darkie?

That's okay, welcome to the insanity!

Darkie is this guy!

He is the Dark Link from Cadence of Hyrule, both a mini boss and a DLC playable character

He is Rhythm's (CoH Link) adopted older brother and technically the oldest in the entire group (including Time)

He's pretty quiet, but he loves his little brother to pieces and gets along great (usually) with Shadow

Rhythm named him Darkie because he didn't have a name when they met outside of battle

[tentimesthecourage]

To Rinku and Four: Shadow won't admit it, but he really loves you <3

Shadow: -freezes, paling under his hood-

-with the couple-

Rinku: I-

Four: -blinks-

-With Shadow and Darkie-

Darkie: ...oh boy.

Shadow has fled!

Darkie: Well that happened.

-With the couple-

Four: We kinda... already knew.

Rinku: His reactions make it fairly obvious.

Four: We did tell him we didn't mind...

Rinku: Maybe we should have been more blunt.
