Summary
Link didn't think he'd be going on another adventure. Two whole years of peace and quiet assured that. Of course, nothing good lasts forever.
Now he's stuck traveling through time with 8 other wielders of the Hero's Spirit, everyone has dumb nicknames, three of them are knights, one of them has very potent dark magic on him, and he won't admit it but he misses his husband.

The Ancient Hero by killer_cinnamonroll

Summary
They were in a new Hyrule.
It wasn’t a surprise: they had been to plenty of Hyrules before all 9 of them were gathered, and there were all the in-between eras with no hero that they frequented. But something about this land felt different than the other eras they visited. When the Chain asked around the nearest town, it seemed as if there was simultaneously both a hero and no hero.
OR
The Chain is in a new Hyrule, but the hero of the land is unlike any they’ve ever seen.

“It's hurting him, Hyrule—”
“It's also healing him! There's some sort of dark leech in here, it's stealing from him, I can't help but feel like if I can just pry it up…”

Hyrule's healing DOES work on Dire. Unfortunately, there are some side effects and now Dire is not happy.Series

A Genderqueer Icon Helps his fellow Genderqueers Come Out by GCM_Fandoms
Fandoms: The Legend of Zelda & Related Fandoms
09 Jun 2025
Tags
Summary
Wild always noticed.
He noticed Time's subtle interest in more feminine things.
He noticed when Legend would get extra moody, or when Legend would subtly remove his binder before he fell asleep so nobody noticed.
He noticed when Hyrule would longingly look at pretty things, but would admittedly deny it when he was caught. Or how they seemed to enjoy they/them pronouns just as much as he/him.
He noticed how Might would always flinch whenever someone referred to them as 'he', only ever seeming to feel comfortable when someone referred to them as 'they'.
He noticed how Four would sometimes be lost in thought as he looked at his body, as if he was confused why he didn't fully feel comfortable in it.
He noticed because that had been him. He noticed because he understood what it was like to feel afraid of being misgendered or afraid of coming out because he was worried he'd be seen as different. But Wild made it his mission to help his new comrades come out and no longer be misgendered!
OR
Wild helps the genderqueers and crossdressers of the Chain come out with all his transgender and crossdresser icon glory shortly after they begin the quest.
(Might is Link from EoW)

Summary
so when I did my GCSEs, I really liked the creative writing question (cause i got to express the tism freely, yk) and I've just stumbled across all my old stories. as far as I can remember, they all got the highest mark our teacher was willing to give us for practice questions (22+14 = 36/40) and most of them were pretty good too. I'll try and link the dates for each response, as well as a bit of context for whatever was in my head at the time lol

How Link's Adventure Started by imahazard_2society

Summary
Don't you ever wonder why Link is always so emotionless? How he started his adventure? Why his family didn't stop him from going, and who send him? Well now you know, but maybe there are more different reasons then what I have... Oh well.
Anyways, I hope this helps y'all, but this is just my short theory about how he started his adventure and who maybe tried to stop him too. It could also show the relationship he has with his father, weather it's good or bad, and how he misses him.
I hope you enjoy reading it, and have a lovey day!

Summary
When it comes to heroes saving the world and holding courage against all odds, this universe has plenty across the ages. But what happens when a danger is created that goes across time?? Thus creating a darkness that can not be defeated by one.
Well, you make all of the heroes work together of course! Forcefully bringing them all together across the timelines whether they like it or not. Of course there are many ways to do this, so many ways to build a chain with 11 separate heroes across different era’s and timelines.
This is one of them, taking place over the time of a month this chain is slowly built, but not piece by piece. No, this chain was built with multiple pieces being put together at different times until all pieces have been put in place.

Summary
Depth used his weight to his advantage, rolling on top of Shackle to pin him to the dirt. They tangled, but Depth ended up holding Shackle’s wrists tightly behind him, pushing his chest into the ground. The dry dirt rubbed uncomfortably on Shackle’s cheek.
“I told you never to touch it,” Depth hissed. His voice hit Shackle’s face like sand, scraping it raw.

Summary
“What did I just do….” Despite the song being one of healing and kindness. The youngest hero could feel a seal being broken.
In the dark coldness of the ruins where moblins slept, the ground started to shift, and crack. With a burst of toxic light erupting forth, and what was once a hand pulling its body out.Or
Wind wakes up a ancient threat, and is forced fight corrupted version of his family, or else he may lose them forever.

Summary
Dire stopped with his hand on the bark of a tree, glaring hard into space. His nails passed once again through phantom flesh, and the memory of dark blood welling up filled the space around his fingers. The memory was bad enough, but unbidden, the imagined taste of that blood touched his lips, and he thought he knew exactly how it would feel to bite through—

The Links Fight was a viral Internet meme and mock fight at [Redacted] in [Redacted] on the date of [Redacted]. The event was originally conceived by a high school student, Link (Wind), who encouraged participants of a Discord server to meet at a set of coordinates one year hence and fight for the right to use the name “Link”.
Aka, the Josh Fight, but with Links.
Also known as an excuse to put all the quotes we’ve been collecting for years into a single fic. -

Summary
“This is no group of mere hapless travelers like the others. We have the illustrious Hero of Hyrule himself in our midst!”
And with that, the priest swept his sword up with a dramatic flourish, then lowered it, pointing it straight…
…at Warriors.
(or: Due to an unforeseen combination of circumstances, a branch of the Cult of Ganon in Hyrule’s era mistakes the Hero of Warriors for the Hero of Hyrule. Terrible times are had by all. 👉😎👉)

Summary
“Hmm,” Madness hummed, looking over Prince’s head. “Do you need a new pillow?”
As usual, Prince had no idea what Madness was getting at, but he turned to look behind himself anyway. What he saw made him sigh. Standing at the edge of the campsite, entirely and utterly filthy, was Dire. And Shackle, trying to hide behind him.
