#request a wip

[skyward-floored]

for the altered requests if you wanna take it up, kitten wind !!

I had to reread what I had since it’s been a bit, so it took me a while to actually write, but I did! Here is your wip :)

“Sailor are you okay?” Warriors asked as he stepped forward, studying him with a worried look.

Wind meowed in reply, and without really thinking, gave Warriors’ outstretched hand a lick. The captain blinked in surprise, and Wind had just enough time to feel embarrassed before he smiled, giving Wind a small scratch behind the ears.

Ooh... that felt nice.

He leaned into the touch with a little purr, then shook himself as he abruptly realized what he was doing. For Jabun’s sake, he wasn’t actually a cat!

“You’re really okay, kiddo?” Warriors asked seriously, and Wind nodded, still enjoying the feel of his fingers gently running over his fur. He was feeling a lot better now that he was back with the others, even if he was embarrassed to be... well, a cat.

Even a miniblin would give me trouble like this, he thought glumly. No less something like a kargaroc. I’m toast if we go into battle again...

OMG!!!! Yay! “Warriors is Hyrule’s [redacted] fic!”

it’s hard to not also ask for more “Brethren in a Cradle”, but I must know more! I love progress snippets.

Hehe, the premise of this one isn’t too hard to figure out, but it’s fun being mysterious lol. Warriors and Hyrule are such a favorite duo of mine, I love them sm <3

Hyrule stood in a bit of a daze, and only snapped out of it when Warriors dropped to a knee, breathing heavily. The traveler stumbled to his side, lowering himself as well and looking over him for any severe injury.

“I-I’m all right,” Warriors panted, voice shaky as he wiped a hand across his forehead. “Just takes... takes a lot out of me.”

Hyrule nodded, his own exhaustion making itself known again as he slumped against the captain.

“That was amazing,” he said breathlessly, sounding awed. Warriors shot him a tired grin, his breath starting to slow as the adrenaline faded.

“Liked that did you? Little... trick I figured out during the war. Nothing like a magical fire dragon to cut down on numbers.”

Hyrule shook his head in amazement.

“That’s fantastic. Do you know how it works? Like, is it all the rod, or are you powering it?” he asked, curiosity overpowering his exhaustion.

“I’m powering it,” Warriors said after thinking it over a moment. “The rod is like an enhancer for magic, I channel what I’ve got through it and it comes out stronger. Helps focus it as well, not all of us can just use our hands,” he said with a grin at Hyrule. “But the rod’d be useless if I had zero magical ability.“

Also because I have no self control, the whumptober continuation.

You can ignore this second ask if multiple requests are not allowed

You’re good!

Ah the elusive whumptober continuation. It’s a continue from one of the 2021 ones, and yes I’ve been working on it that long. I keep forgetting it exists. It’s like 20k at least. help.

“Legend?” Green asks quietly.

The veteran continues to stare, something shaken only growing in his gaze, an emotion that none of them have ever seen so blatant on his face.

And then his eyes well with tears.

Green, Blue, and Vio all exchange panicked looks, and Legend lets out a small, uncharacteristic sob, his shoulders shaking with the force of it.

“Are you okay vet?” Vio asks, wondering if he’s in pain. He clutches at his wrist, and brushes a hand over his forehead. “What’s wrong?”

Legend lets out another sob, sounding much too young when he finally manages to speak.

“I-I, there was just... so m-much blood, his h-heart wasn’t, I—“

Green slides past Blue without a word, then leans down and hugs Legend, letting the older boy hiccup into his arms. Legend clutches him in a very un-Legend-like manner, clinging to him like it’s the only thing remotely holding him together, and Green silently rubs his shoulder.

castletown wedding please!

Someone else asked for Castletown too, so I’ll work on it some more later as well! This chapter is giving me trouble, but I’ll work it into something worth reading eventually XD

Random people kept wanting to talk to Wind though, thank him for saving them, ask him how old he was and all sorts of prying questions he didn’t really want to answer. The attention was getting a little old, and Wind was seriously considering finding Time and using his scary looks as a barrier when Legend soon came to his rescue.

The veteran made what Wind thought was a lame excuse, but it worked, and Legend nearly dragged him away from the crowd, the two escaping to a secluded area behind some bushes.

They spent a while merely sitting in the grass as they nibbled cake and more of Wild’s tarts, watching the party from the safety of the bush, and laughing as Wild and Hyrule silently joined them, for some reason sporting several smears of frosting on their clothes.

“Don’t ask,” Hyrule said with a shake of his head, frosting making him look like he was getting grey hairs. Wild flicked some frosting off his shirt and onto his hand, then licked it off with a thoughtful look.

“Not quite as good as mine,” Wild said with a hum, licking his lips. “...makes a pretty good projectile though.”

And he threw a glob of frosting at Wind’s face.

“Hey!”

Multi chap incredibles AU Sky fic please

You got it 👍

I just can’t get the middle of this fic to behave, it’s like it just refuses to make sense. The beginning is all neat-n-tidy but the middle is a big pile of random snippets and ideas and plot I’m trying to smoosh into a cohesive thing. Yech.

All that to say, it still needs work :/ But I did manage to write some!

“I’m going to go out and look again,” Warriors said in a stiff voice.

Nobody tried to argue with him, though Artemis gave him a look, one rather knowing. Time nodded at her, then followed Warriors as he walked out of the room, putting a hand on his shoulder and meeting his younger brother’s eyes.

“We’ll both go,” he said firmly. “We’ll cover more ground, and I don’t like the idea of anyone going out by themselves right now.”

“You came here alone, didn’t you?” Warriors said with a humorless smirk.

Time frowned. “I mean it, Link. We don’t know what happened to Sky, and if... if he was a target of some kind, you likely are as well,” he said more quietly. “It’s safer this way.”

Warriors paused as he fastened his coat, and didn’t look at Time when he replied.

“If it’s true I’m a target as well, then that might be our only link to Sky.”

You expect me to choose a wip??? How could you??!

Just kidding lol (though it was an extremely hard choice). I’m gonna go with the last few chapters of Castletown cause my brainrot from that fic has returned with a vengeance

(But if you have any extra time and energy and feel like doing it I wouldn’t say no to more downfall time too 👀)

Yes I’m forcing you to choose 😔 Though I actually don’t mind if you ask for more than one XD And I worked on both a little bit!

For Castletown though, this might end up being a deleted scene or something, I’m not sure if it’ll end up fitting. But we’ll see!

“All of this has only solidified to me that the Shadow needs to be stopped, no matter what,” Warriors said gravely, though he relaxed slightly as Artemis put her hand over his. “I’ll stay for as long as I can. But if we find another portal...”

“I know. We both knew this would happen after we were wed, Link,” Artemis said with a sigh. “But darkness such as this Shadow must be stopped. I’d gladly come with you, but I can’t very well leave the kingdom.”

“Well... I haven’t left yet,” Warriors said with a smirk, and Artemis smiled in spite of herself, and returned the kiss he pressed to her lips.

“Indeed. We’ll make the most of it.”

And for more downfall Time, I don’t have much plot or anything yet, but I still wrote a little 👍

A head pokes in the room, and Link perks up, smiling as Wind skips inside. He likes the sailor. Wind doesn’t treat him like glass, and doesn’t give him nearly as many worried looks as the older heroes do.

Which he guesses are mostly warranted, but it’s still annoying.

“Hiya Link,” Wind says, flopping on the end of his bed with a grin. “I got more nickname suggestions!”

“Oh no, please tell me they’re better then the last batch,” Warriors groans, and Wind gives him an offended look.

“They weren’t that bad, Link just didn’t prefer them and it’s his nickname,” Wind sniffed.

“True, but “Other Guy” was just dumb,” Twilight snorts, and Link snickers, wincing a little as his middle aches. “Not to mention “Two-eyed-Time”, or—”

“Okay okay,” Wind says over the chatter that’s sprung up, and claps his hands together. “Me and Four thought of some good ones, so listen up.”

“Fine, but if any are alliterative, I’m leaving,” Legend huffs.

Link scoots in, and Wind begins to read from his list, the nicknames... slightly less eccentric than last time.

Hehe brethren in cradle :)

my beloved fic <3

Next chapter is coming along fairly well, but I actually worked on a later one a bit hehe. Sorry for the sort of gloomy wip, but... well this fic is gloomy sometimes lol.

“You saw all that smoke and didn’t think to investigate?” Wind asked in disbelief, and the man shrugged, hefting his catch over his arm.

“What they do in town is their business. There’s always some festival or other goin’ on, I figured it must be a bonfire or some sort,” he said in an unconcerned voice.

“Yeah, a bonfire of the whole town,” Legend spat, and the man paused, looking at him with narrowed eyes.

“What are you on about, lad?”

“The whole town was razed,” Warriors answered, voice holding back the emotion Wild knew was there. “Destroyed by monsters, and the townspeople killed. We found one survivor. That’s what the little bonfire you saw was.”

The man stared at them like he was waiting for one of them to tell him it was a joke, but as the silence stretched on, the lines on his face creased even deeper, and he ran a hand through his beard.

“One... Din’s claws,“ he swore softly, his grip tightening on his lantern. “Nobody else?”

“We would have found them,” Sky replied quietly. “I suppose it’s possible, but...”

“Not very likely,” Warriors finished in a grim voice.
