Two years after its initial posting, I finally got around to an editing overhaul of my TOTK fic Mask Off! It's just under 50k words and tells a canon-adjacent story about the Lucky Clover Gazette, the Yiga Clan, and Link's emotional turmoil after discovering Zelda's fate. TOTK side characters Traysi and Mimos feature heavily, alongside two Yiga OCs. There's a healthy balance of comedy, emotions, and lesbian tension between Traysi and an aforementioned Yiga OC. I also wrote a prequel featuring these characters detailing the original Thunder Helm heist in Gerudo Town.
If you wished for more story depth in TOTK, this fic might be for you. It was written with a deep love and appreciation for the Wilds-era games and their worldbuilding, characters, and thematic subtext. Also with a deep love and appreciation for evil workplaces, journalistic integrity, and banana bread. And Mimos.
