Summary
“Mask,” he breathes, “Sprite, it’s me. You have to calm down. We have to be quiet.”
He shouldn’t waste the words, shouldn’t risk it, but he can’t stop himself from whispering, “I’m sorry. I’m so sorry. It’s okay.”
Link shoves a free end of his scarf into Mask’s fist like an apology. The deep royal blue is a signifier of a hero, of safety. Right now looking at it makes Link feel sick.
Or: Captain Link rescues a sick and exhausted Mask from capture ft Link’s scarf as a baby sling

Summary
“I am not leaving him in there alone,” he continues, starting to loosen the clasp over his shoulder keeping his scarf in place. “He needs us-”
Just then, there’s an audible disturbance in the water. Warriors whips his head around in time to catch a splotch of dazzling pink amidst a cloud of bubbles in the otherwise dark lake, and then a lizalfos genuinely comes flying out of the water. He stares dumbly as it crashes into the deck between him and Twilight, screeching and squirming in pain and fury, with brutal looking claw marks around its face and throat. What the fuck?
When a portal drops the Chain in the middle of a huge lizalfos camp, sprawling halfway across an unknown lake, everyone expects the worst when Legend ends up getting dragged under. They quickly find out just how well he can hold is own in the water, though, and add a new fact to their ever-growing list of Legend's magical abilities.
Or, the Links learn about the mermaid suit, and they're more interested in marveling at the unique transformation than judging Legend for it, much to his surprise. Legend tosses a lizalfos, Warriors makes a fool of himself, and everyone has a good time.

Summary
“Please don’t bite my head off," the Shadow drawled, rolling his eyes. "Let’s just try again. Okay. So here’s the deal. You have something I want. Clearly, I have something you want. Let’s just truce.”
“What do you have that I could possibly want?” Warriors spat.
The Shadow smirked. “Hands, my friend. I can get you out of there. You’re not looking too good, though. You considering losing the legs, or what?”
Warriors just snarled.
“Look, I’ll get you free. Minimal damage, and you can just walk away. That’s that. But I want you to tell me what you know about Link.”

Deep in a labyrinth underneath Twilight's Hyrule, Warriors gets separated due to a cave-in. Injured, trapped, and alone, he's got one last ally that he'd sooner rip his own face off than accept help from.

Summary
If he breathed too deeply, he'd choke on the harsh perfumes and fragrant shampoos that permeated his flimsy cotton comforts. Beyond that, he'd discerned the harsh odors of brandished iron and demoralized bodies – a far cry from the familiar forests that should've been his next destination upon leaving Clock Town once and for all.
Link felt so cheated.
Or: The Hero of Time enters the War of Eras and has to come to terms with another adventure while proving his capabilities all over again. For Captain Link, it's hard not to see him for the child he is, and they both silently decide that they must help one another.

Summary
“It’s a shame, really,” Wild huffed, crossing his arms and propping his leg on the coffee table in Malon’s living room. “I’ve slept longer than half the people in my era have been alive! Nobody cared at the Noble Canteen...I just wanted to try a Noble Pursuit!”
Warriors had never once, in his entire, crazy life, expected to be talking with his incarnated self who apparently had been asleep for 100 years, woke up with no memories, saved all of Hyrule anyways and found the most inconvenient part of it all was not being able to drink at a Gerudo bar.
____
Wild is 117 and doesn't understand that this is Not Normal. Warriors gets more headaches (and gray hairs), and the chain ends up in Gerudo Town. This does not de-escalate the situation at all.

Summary
“What is going on?” Sky croaked desperately, feeling suddenly small and insignificant and wanting to sink into the floor. Why are you looking at me like that?
More silent glances passed between his brothers, laden with unspoken words, and then Time spoke up, his gaze stony. “I think you should be the one telling us that, boy.”
Warriors took a step closer, brows pinching together as he held the Master Sword against his chest.
“Beginning with your name."
