LoZ Whumptober/Nanowrimo (as I failed to complete it in October), prompts 1 - 15:
Sands of Time Ganlink 1/3 - "Calling to You (My Safety Net)"
“But now this room is spinning while I’m trying just to fill in all the gaps.”
Safety Net | Swooning
In which the call of Link's new home proves stronger than common sense or years of experience. Mistakes are made.
Revalink One-Shot - "Almost a Memory"
“I’ll call out your name, but you won’t call back.”
Delirium | “They don’t care about you.”
Link wasn't sure what the Hero from a hundred years ago would have done, but he was confident that he could have dodged that arrow.
Malon/Link Gen/Pre-Relationship One-Shot - "In the Cold Light of the Moon"
“Like crying out in empty rooms; with no-one there except the moon.”
“Make it stop.”
After Termina, nothing fits quite like it should and Time marches on even as Link wishes it wouldn't.
BotW Gen 1/2 - "Riding the Lightning"
“I see the danger, It’s written there in your eyes.”
Cattle Prod | Shock | “You in there?”
The Yiga were either very lucky or were competent for a change. It didn't matter. Either way, Link was about to have a bad day.
Hyrule Warriors Gen 1/2 - "So Far to Fall"
“You better pray I don’t get up this time around.”
Debris | Pinned Down | “It’s broken.”
When the small child with the Spirit of the Hero entered the battlefield, Link had no plans on getting attached to the feral brat. He swore to protect him, to keep him safe, but that was supposed to be the end of it.
Now trapped and wounded with the young hero crying in front of him, Link realized far too late that he had failed.
Revalink One-Shot - "See You Later"
“Do or die, you’ll never make me; Because the world will never take my heart.”
“It should have been me.”
Tomorrow, Link would finally face the Calamity. He feared that tomorrow would spell the end of many things, not just that nightmare.
An unexpected source provided reassurance. If Link had learned nothing else since awakening in the Shrine of Resurrection, it should have been that death wasn't the end.
Legend of Zelda: Hyrule Warriors Gen - "That Old Familiar Sting"
“I paced around for hours on empty; I jumped at the slightest of sounds.”
Alleyway | “Can you hear me?”
In an alleyway in Castle Town, with Sprite and a handful of burning corpses as his witnesses, Link faces his failures once again.
Sands of Time Prequel - "Airless"
“I’ve got soul, but I’m not a soldier.”
“It’s all for nothing.”
Immediate SoT Prequel: Before Link awoke in the desert, it was just him, Epona, and a terrible decision to make in a cold cave.
Hyrule Warriors Gen 1/2 - "Can't Rain All the Time"
“Learning everything ain’t what it seems, that’s the thing about these days.”
“You’re a liar.”
Hyrule Warriors Gen 2/2 - "Can't Rain All the Time"
“Can’t you see that you’re lost without me?”
“You said you’d never leave.”
The war was over. It was time for everyone to return to their original time.
Whether they wanted to or not.
Hyrule Warriors NC Cia/Link 2/2 - "A Song of Love and War"
“All the lights going dark and my hope’s destroyed.”
Captivity | “No one will find you.”
Link thought he knew what to expect of Cia: what she wanted of him and what would happen if he was captured.
He was so very wrong.
(Second chapter = Whumptober Prompt)
Cia and Link meet again: this time, on the battlefield.
BotW Gen One-Shot - "Deep Silent Complete"
“I haven’t slept in days but who’s counting?”
Insomnia | “I’m up, I’m up.”
Link was no longer sure what were nightmares and what were memories, but at least he wasn't alone... even if he couldn't figure out what exactly his lupine friend was.
Sands of Time Ganlink 2/3 - "Calling to You (My Safety Net)"
“It comes and goes like the strength in your bones.”
Cold Compress | Infection
In which the call of Link's new home proves stronger than common sense or years of experience. Mistakes are made.
Hyrule Warriors Gen 1/2 - "Just Hold On"
“Feed me poison, fill me ‘till I drown.”
Water Inhalation | “Just hold on.”
If Link survived this, his old commander was going to yell at him if he saw him again. This was beyond stupid.
It didn’t matter. It hadn’t since that moblin backhanded Sprite and knocked him into the raging waters of the river.
Sands of Time Ganlink 3/3 - "Calling to You (My Safety Net)"
“I don’t need you to help me I can handle things myself.”
Suppressed Suffering | “I’m fine.”
In which the call of Link's new home proves stronger than common sense or years of experience. Mistakes are made.
