Lu Fic - Tumblr Posts

For anyone wondering how the planning for Shadowed, the LU fic @not-freyja and I are working on, is going. 🙂

Who wants some fun facts about our upcoming, multi-chapter LU fic, Shadowed!

It's a murder mystery/psychological horror

It will have an MCD tag (permanent? Temporary? Faked their death? Who knows! 😉)

Main POV will come from Wind and Shadow

This is technically a 'Link meets the Chain' fic (but which Link?)

Vidow is central to the plot

Wind being able to see Ghosts is central to the plot

There will be illustrations

Anything you'd like to add to this @not-freyja ?

Ladies, gentlemen, and those of you who know better...

With @not-freyja teasing that the next chapter of This is an Adjuration will be out shortly, currently 14k words and the long awaited Vio POV, I have been honoured with a bit of a sneak peek.

Here is my review:

I have been hurt in ways I did not even know I could be hurt in. I have serious concerns for the mental state of both Vio and the author, and am fully expecting for this chapter to haunt me for weeks to come. I eagerly await the release of the full chapter. ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐

Ayo does anyone wanna start a support group with me for people who have suffered emotional damages from @not-freyja's 'This is an Adjuration'? I feel like we could all do with it after Vio's chapter.

Applications now open! 🤣

@needfantasticstories @glowingmin @life-in-winter @shigerumiyamotoisagenius @passerinesoncaffiene @deleetrix @sunny-porridge you interested? Let me know if I've forgotten anyone!

Oh this is awesome. I'm just noticing all the attention to detail that went into this, like the injuries, Red's sword...

"... the edge of his blade pointed down, tip resting delicately on his other self’s throat... The entire thing lasted seconds."

read This is an Adjuration right now.

A scene from chapter 26 of This is an Adjuration by @not-freyja !

“Red closes off his floral loop and twists, placing the crown upon Vio's head. Hyrule brings over the next handful of flowers, and Red beams, beginning another weaving braid. Vio turns the page, twenty and a half seconds slower than average, a faint upturn to the corner of his mouth.”

Isn’t this a such a nice happy scene? It’d be a shame if anything happened to Red wouldn’t it? 🥲

So how y'all coping with chapter 59?

I am incredibly normal about This is an Adjuration by @not-freyja (lies)

hold on! I'm putting my two brainrots, genshin and lu, in a blender! bthpbthpbthpbthpbthpbthpbthpbthpbthpbthpbthpbthpbthp 👁👁

k now imagine this as some sort of book given to the chain:

Ancient Teyvat History

Long ago the kingdom known as Hyrule broke into the seven nations we know today. The three goddesses who rule over Celestia– Din, Nayru, and Farore– created the Archons. Semi-immortal beings granted a seat on the elemental thrones, and a Gnosis to rule their nations with.

Anemo, Geo Electro, Dendro, Hydro, Pyro, and Cryo. Mondstadt, Liyue, Inazuma, Sumeru, Fontaine, Natlan, and Snezhnaya.

Now, the Triforce is still present in our current world, but it has faded. Perhaps been hidden, if you will. Gannon is no longer a threat. The sacred name of Zelda is not passed down, as the royal family is no longer about. The Hero needs not arise. We unfortunately do not have much information on The Heros, no names, no mention of family or home have been mentioned in the records. But it is undeniable the link they have to the Triforce of courage, their adventures forever remembered. 

Fanart inspired by the fic Nothing is Forever (what a horror/what a joy) by @imperialkatwala , @polynomialpandemic

Warning: temporary MCD.

This fic made me stare at midnight and read it 2 or 3 times until I fell asleep without realizing it. The next morning, I drew a sketch at work and colored it this evening. I want to draw this scene ASAP. If you like Downfall Duo, you might like this fic. Please read this fic!

Honestly I find it really ironic that the one time I decide to try posting a fic related to the in between point of BOTW's story (because I personally can't see TOTK representing that inflection point, because of the whole founding of Hyrule thing and the lack of Sheikah tech, though I have thoughts about that I'll probably write down later), and another with the infection point of the Adult Timeline, whom I have many thoughts about because the implications delight me and I have way too many thoughts about it and how it relates to the First Hero's time and the rest of the Zelda Timeline and technically could relate to LU but I doubt anyone would want me to go off about it right now, Ao3 is fucking down because of a small minded hacker group that's generally homophobic, transphobic, likely way too conservative for my liking and posing as another minority to get clout and rage all over bit coin of all things.

It makes me want to laugh and cry hysterically.

MY BLORBO!!! Can't wait to see where this is going! I love the style too!

Connections (Linked Universe Fanfic)

Chapter One: Meetings and Stories

The Hero of the Wild had heard and seen many unbelievable things. He heard that he was over a hundred years old. He’d been told that he had been an actual knight once. He found the latter of which somehow less likely. He’d seen a ghost of a king that had once led the land he was apparently trying to save. Hyrule, it was called. He’d even seen four of the most ridiculously large machines in the world, one of which could fly. 

Thus, when he met eight other versions of himself, he was not particularly surprised. Sure, he was startled when they started showing up. He didn’t understand why they were there, or how they were there. But eventually, he got tired of trying to guess the answers to these questions, so he gave up and simply accepted the ordeal.

He didn’t know much about their history. In fact, he didn’t know much about them at all. All he knew was that something bad was coming, and they were going to have to rely on each other a lot more than they probably would have preferred. He was declared the chef, and he accepted the duty with an open heart. Cooking brought him joy that he just couldn’t find anywhere else. Well, he could find it in one other place. The wild. Whenever he was there, he felt at peace, as if the world wasn’t on his shoulders… as if the fate of Hyrule wasn’t all his fault. 

The Hero of the Wild, or “Champion”, which is what he had been dubbed by the others, was startled out of his reverie by a gentle touch. He looked back to see the Hero of the Sky, creatively nicknamed “Sky”, with a concerned expression. Champion flinched. 

“I’m sorry, but I really don’t like to be touched,” he said. Sky looked at him apologetically, and removed his hand. 

“You seemed a bit out of it, and I wanted to make sure you were okay. I noticed that you seemed a bit sad and I was wondering if perhaps you were a bit homesick. I know I am. You don’t have to say if you don’t want to of course–”

“I wish it was as simple as that. You see, this is my home.” He gestured to Hyrule Castle, with its Malice and Guardians. 

“You come from here? What happened?!” exclaimed Sky, mortified that such a thing could ever happen to Hyrule.

Champion sighed heavily. “I wish I could tell you based on fact, on what I know. But all I know about it is snippets of information I got from strangers and a few people who I met. It first appeared ten thousand years ago. The Hero and Princess from that time were able to successfully seal away the monster that caused all this, Calamity Ganon. The monster came back and attacked Hyrule. This was one hundred years ago. The knight with the sword that seals the darkness and the princess were caught unprepared. The princess had yet to unlock her sealing power, her power of light. So, when Calamity Ganon struck, it was absolutely disastrous. The Hero fell, and the entirety of Hyrule was put to ruin. The princess managed to unlock her sealing power, and is still holding Calamity Ganon at bay, waiting for the Hero to save her and Hyrule from their plight.”

Sky stared at him. “So, what happened to the Hero a hundred years ago? Is he dead for good?”

Champion let out a bitter chuckle, then remained silent. Sky decided that it might be better to ask later, so he went to converse with the others. 

Later that night, after dinner had been partaken, the Hero of Winds (AKA Sailor) requested sharing history. 

“We are probably going to be stuck with each other for a while, so we might as well get to know each other a little better,” he reasoned.

He was the only one to tell the entirety of his story, and even he kept some of his weapons and powers secret. 

Four, called Smith, told his tale with the Minish next. He only withheld a limited amount of information, but enough that he could still have his fair share of surprises.

Legend, nicknamed Collector and Veteran, recalled maybe half of his adventures. Some things were better left unsaid, at least in his opinion, and if he were to describe every random item he possessed, he figured they’d all be skeletons before he finished. 

Hyrule, who became Traveller, didn’t really have that much to hide. That didn’t stop him from holding some information hostage. This wasn’t the time to spill his tirade of knowledge upon them. He also didn’t describe the truth of what his Hyrule was like, for fear of frightening the others.

Sky only told the basics. He didn’t want to have to explain how his love for Zelda was what drove him on his journey. He couldn’t describe how it was his fault for their forced existence, all their pain, all their suffering…

Captain, previously the Hero of Warriors, was bribed by Veteran into telling his story. He told the basics. He was forced to meet Ganondorf in full-out war, not being sneaky. 

Rancher, (missing his old title “the Hero of Twilight”), barely told them anything. He gave a basic run through of what he’d been through. He left out the fact that he could simply deny who he was, with one touch of a stone.

Champion looked at the fire and said, “I dunno.” Nobody bought it and thought he was stalling. When he didn’t offer anything they turned their burning curiosity on the Hero of Time, called Old Man lovingly by the others.

He smiled. “Now wouldn’t you just love to know. Let an old man keep his secrets. Maybe I’ll tell you later on.”

Sailor was skeptical. “Maybe?” he asked, cocking his head. Time laughed, but he refused to tell his own story. On that note, they decided to call it a night. 

Sky was having a nightmare. Not just any old bad dream, mind you. It was the nightmare, the one that tormented him without cease, the one that  never left his mind and never would. The one of Demise cursing him and his descendants, laughing and jeering after being stabbed through the chest by the blade of evil’s bane. And as he faded, dissolving into disgusting ash, those last, haunting words echoed…

“An incarnation of my hatred shall ever follow your kind, dooming them to wander a blood-soaked sea of darkness for all time!”

Sky sat up, drenched in cold sweat. He took several deep breaths, trying to soothe the nerves that were almost frayed beyond repair. How could he even possibly consider being with these men? He had forced them into this position. Their fates were all his fault. 

Sky gave up on trying to sleep that night. He knew he was going to see that again, and he didn’t want to start acting weird around the others. He looked around to make sure everyone was still asleep. 

“You don’t have to act strange about it,” gently whispered a voice behind him. Sky whirled to see Champion sitting cross-legged on the ground next to the unlit fire. “We all have nightmares. We’ve all done bad things. And, we’ve all let somebody down. You don’t have to feel singled out.”

Sky regarded him. “So I take it you also had a nightmare?”

Champion gave a little smile. “I like to do things at night. I really don’t sleep that much.” Sky couldn’t imagine doing anything but sleeping at night. 

“What do you like to do at night so much that you prioritize it over sleep?!” Sky whisper-exclaimed. There was a hint of indignation in his voice.

“Some research. There are these strange images on the Sheikah Slate, and each night I go to investigate the environment of one of these pictures. They hold incredible value to me.”

“Hmmmm…” Sky became lost in thought. Research over rest?! He thought incredulously. Has he lost his mind?

In fact, he actually voiced it. “Have you lost your mind?” he asked, just to make sure.

“In a way, I suppose.” With that, Champion walked into the night. Sky was left to ponder the meaning of his words. Eventually, he drifted back to sleep. 

Champion still hadn’t returned by the time Sky woke up. At this point, Old Man called in a meeting and sent Rancher to find him. 

Maybe fifteen minutes after Rancher left the group, a battle horn resounded from behind the heroes. They were being ambushed, and now there were only seven of them.

I love this so much!!! Good writing, too!

Guys I managed writing the first chapter of another lu fanfic! :D

(Its a de-aging trope one and I’m very sorry if the characters personalities aren’t accurate to canon these are just how my dumb little brain perceives them :P )

I'm playing Hyrule Warriors for the first time. Ya'll. I'm so sorry. All those fics with Cia being fuckin bonkers and pursuing Link/Warriors like a crazy ex girlfriend or something? I didn't believe ya'll. I thought "It's a Zelda game. She couldn't be that bad."

I was wrong. I concede.

I was all "I should play the game to be able to write Warriors better. Maybe I can plan a subplot with it for Requiem." Ha ha. Ya'll, I haven't been giving his trauma enough thought. I knew he had big T trauma. I knew. But I didn't *know.* I have so much work to do. Fucking hell. I have to finish the main plot to plan anything. Fuck. I might have to finish this before finishing chapter 11. Fuuuuuuck

A Wild (And Rulie) Goose Chase

We take a break from our regularly scheduled ArtFight Attacks to bring you....

Linked Universe Fanfiction!

I've participated in the Linked Universe Write-A-Thon both in July and Today and this time I was able to write and finish a fanfic!

Legend was slightly freaking out at this point. He had taken his eyes off Wild and Hyrule for two minutes at most while dancing and speaking with Princess Styla. As they finished, he’d looked through the crowds, cataloging where each of his brothers were, and saw one, two, three... five, seven…. Wait, where were eight and nine? He looked again, even more meticulous in his search, and once again he couldn’t see them. or Legend might be a little too quick to worry, and drags Twilight (willingly) along for the ride.

Hope you enjoy, and I'd love to see what you think!!
