Twilight: I don't like this... - Wars: He's entitled to have a little fun, let him enjoy himself. - Twilight gritted his teeth. He, Warriors and Time were sitting in a corner of the bar they were in, across the bar sat Wild, who was smiling brightly as he chatted animatedly at one of the many bar goers that had their eyes on Wild. It was evident that Wild was being carefree and friendly with all the men around him, and it was also clear that all the men clearly had their interests set on Wild. - Wars shrugging: Just relax, we're here in case anything bad happens. If this is the kind of entertainment Wild likes, I need no need to rain on his parade. - Time who, like Twilight, kept his eye entirely focused on the people near Wild: I'll admit, I never knew that Wild was this outgoing. He's naturally loud, but I never expected this. - Wars: People may surprise you. Besides with Wild's looks, its only natural for people to be attracted to him. I'll admit, he is pretty. - Twilight's gaze left Wild's direction only to glare heatedly at Wars. - Legend coming back from the bar with a new drink: You're gonna burn a hole through this entire building if you keep glaring. - Twilight gives Legend a similar glare before turning back to keep an eye on Wild. - Legend looking over at Wild for a brief moment: You think he knows he's being hit on by all those guys? - Wars with a snort: Why wouldn't he? Its not like they're acting subtle. - Legend with a shrug: I mean he told us he woke up with no memories like 2 years ago. Wild's smart when it comes to a lot of things, but lets be honest, socially, he has the mind of a toddler a lot of the times. - The table goes silent as Wars and Legend slowly look over to Twilight, his once narrowed eyes slowly going more and more wide at the revelation. With a sudden jolt, Twilight pushes his seat back, standing immediately. - Wars: Rancher... - Twilight completely ignores Warriors as he walks away from them, making a straight line to Wild. Twilight pushes through the small crowd with little effort of his own before reaching Wild. Not even a moment later, Twilight, while holding onto one of Wild's arm, is leading past their table. - Wild with that same carefree tone: Hey Wars, hey Time, hey Ledge! Twi where we going? - Twilight, not pausing his stride: Back to the inn. You're grounded. - Wild: What! What did I do? - Though Wild protested, he didn't fight at all as Twilight led him to the exit and then outside.

@lennsart I just had to do a sketch for your fic & dtiys while I was at the beach today!

I was thinking of merman Legend all day, I couldn't not do this!

[kikker-oma]

Watched The Fellowship of the Ring with my best friend and I immediately thought of Wild giving Bilbo's birthday speech and just teleporting away from the chain lol

[phcodill]

Wild: Did I ever tell you about my first experience when I woke up from the Shrine? - Legend unable to glare at Wild as they are both strung up, back to back, suspended barely above the ground by their hands in a cell: Wild is this really the time? - Wild: Well I figured we had the time. So did ya wanna hear it? - Legend silent for a moment before sighing: Sure. - Wild: So as I told you guys already, when I woke up I had no memories, but it's more than what you guys might think. I didn't know who I was, where I was, or anything. I woke up and knew absolutely nothing at all. Only had a single voice in my mind calling out to someone named Link. I wasn't even sure if Link was me. Can you guess what the first thing I did? - Legend: Knowing you, set something on fire. - Wild letting out a small laugh: I wish... - Legend noticing that Wild went silent: What did you do? - Wild: I huddled in the corner of the cave for 2 days. - Legend keeping silent - Wild: I didn't know anything, I was lost, confused, terrified. So I backed myself into the corner of the cave, and sat there in a ball... crying... - Legend: Why didn't you try to leave? - Wild: Same reason a new born baby doesn't start walking as soon as it's born. I had nothing, no one showing me what to do. All I knew was that I was alone, with no memories, and a voice in my head calling me a name that I didn't know was mine. - Wild: I drifted in and out what what I now know was stressed induced unconsciousness during those 2 days. By that 2nd day, I was starving and thirsty and I was afraid that I was going to die. So, I slowly crawled my way towards the entrance to the cave. I could barely stand, my lack of energy plus with my muscles not being used in 100 years. - Legend: I'm... sorry. I didn't know that's how it started for you. - Wild: It's okay. I made it through in the end. So anyway, when I leave the cave, I come across this vast and unknown land. Mountains, forests, plains, everything as far as the eye can see. Naturally I panic, leaving a small cave and seeing something so huge that I could barely comprehend it. It was overwhelming. I wanted to go back, to go into the safety of the cave that I knew so much by then. But then something caught my eye. - Legend: What was it? - Wild: A wolf. A very old wolf, full of black but grey hair. And a peculiar mark on his head. - Legend: Wait, you don't mean... - Wild smiling: Yeah, the very same. He's younger right now, but he'll grow old, and one day he'll make his way to me when I wake up. - Legend: Does he know? Have you told him? - Wild: No I haven't. I thought about it, but I wonder if it would be fair to put that weight on his shoulders now when it'll be so far off for him. Maybe I should warn him though. If you guys think I'm bad now, you have no idea what kinda trouble I put me and him through. - Legend letting out a chuckle: I can only imagine. - Wild: He became my best friend. He taught me everything I know, and I know how that sounds basically saying my first mentor was a wolf. I own every part of what makes me me. He also saved my life more times than I can count. - Legend: That wolf wouldn't happen to still be around to save our lives right now, right? The older one I mean. - Wild: No. We parted ways before I faced the calamity. I haven't seen him since. We don't need to worry about him saving our lives though. - Legend: Why not? - Before Wild could answer, the wooden door outside of their cell was rammed completely through. The wood splintering all over the floor as a Yiga member fell on the remnants of the wood. There stood Twilight, having just rammed his way through the yiga and the door - Wild grinning as if he and Legend wasn't being held captive: Oh hey Twi.

Hi @lennsart !

Found your dtiys challenge and just had to try it!

I imagined the caves to be more granite-like but the spiky blue look was fun to render

went a bit nuts when adding the luminous stones

You’re fics are awesome and I’ve reread ‘A cave like a net’ many times

The Hero(es)

.

anyway heres more ravio art (ft. link) since albw has been rotating in my head for the past week which led to me getting inspired to draw again

also i can't get over the relationship between these two,, especially the line that ravio says to link at the end is so beautiful and hits me right in the feels

You aren't going to believe this

I have another stefmb linked universe fic. Wars and Wolfie get into a fight this time. Things don't go well when Time's away.

An Archive of Our Own, a project of the Organization for Transformative Works

(it is not lost on me that in the last 2 months I've written more than a quarter of what I've written for TWDD and Old Gods combined. I recognize this and I'm sorry to anyone waiting for those to continue.)

[unbeknownsttoast]

Cross posting again

This should 100% be the other way around but I refuse to believe that Wars would lose to NOTHING
