2 Adventures AU

purgatory??? More like purGAYtory hahah cmon guys up top

I’m too tired to try and write an actual Drabble, but I think Dapper made it onto the boat with the elytra

Imagine with me:

The last we saw from bbh’s pov was Dapper pearling away. I imagine he makes it to a high point and uses the elytra, flying after the boat. He starts losing momentum and remembers his firework, which he uses just in time. It’s just enough to propel him fast enough to catch up. He crash lands onto the deck hard but everyone takes care of him.

Poor Dapper is absolutely distraught, more than anyone has ever seen him. He’s disoriented and hurt from months of running and being kidnapped. He hit the deck hard enough to hurt himself but he’s safe at the cost of his Father, siblings, and the rest of his family.

I imagine he’s inconsolable but everyone is able to take care of him.

LU Maze Runner AU (actually explained this time)

Okay, I got way ahead of myself in my last post 😭 I forgot that maze runner didn’t have the same impact on everybody as it did me. Here’s the actual plot of my AU so that it makes sense to everyone 😭

Hyrule has reached an incredibly advanced age of technology and other sciences. (So think like, hunger games, or any sci-fi movie that takes place like, 200 years in the future.) Most of Hyrule has fallen to a horrible virus called the gloom. This gloom grows through plants and taints water sources.  This virus was engineered by a terrible cult called Demise, a group of people under the control of a man named Ganon who wishes to take control of Hyrule. 

In retaliation, a group sponsored by the royal lineage of Hyrule creates a research facility called HYLIA to study ways to take down Demise and fight against the gloom. They take individuals from across Hyrule who show either great resistance, sometimes even immunity to the gloom, and/or significant resistance against the cult of Demise. Demise has some type of brainwashing technology that causes people to either become submissive under its rule or compliant to the cult, often joining it. 

Of course in this story the people taken are the boys from the chain and also all the Zeldas. They’re all taken young, at least in the quarter HYLIA that they live in. Most of them were surrendered by their parents but others were either found or taken. HYLIA cannot afford to be kind. 

So in essence, everyone is stuck there, but it’s not horrible. They spend a lot of time getting “normal” schooling. They’re subjected to tests but it’s not necessarily like a horror lab AU. They’re not treated like animals or anything but they certainly can’t leave. This of course leads to a lot of resentment from the chain.

Eventually HYLIA starts getting frustrated. They aren’t getting very far with their testing. It just isn’t… natural. One of the key discoveries is that gloom resistance and resistance to Demise mind control is really hard to replicate in practical labs. The labs can’t be unbiased with literally the same exact sample each time. They realize that the only way they can actually get results is through real life experience. But how can they get that when all these people have been living in HYLIA for years? 

The Maze is born. It's huge, spanning hundreds of acres of land. In its very center lies the glade, a safe spot of land in the middle of it all, the maze surrounding it. (I’ll try and draw a rough map at some point.) They build two of them. One for the boys, one for the girls. They fill the mazes with genetically engineered monsters that they infuse with low levels of the gloom in order to see how the “participants” react when they fight them. 

The mazes are full of different puzzles and beasts so that HYLIA can study the participants and how they react. Through these means, they believe they will understand how to defeat Demise and the gloom.

I mentioned before that they send in each chain member going off of their game release dates. This starts with Hyrule and ends with Wild. They time this just around the span of a full year, sending in a member around a month or two at a time. 

Before they send in each member, they completely and FULLY erase their memories so that when they wake up in the glade, all they can remember is their name and age. They do remember how to do things, like math, reading, survival skills, etc. but they don’t know how or when they learned it. Sometimes they might get strong feelings, but that’s all they have. They’re essentially new people once they hit the maze. 

I’ll get more into the chain members and dynamics next time! Or I can write about anything you want 💕💕💕 please lmk thoughts!! They keep me motivated

I really like some the totem of healing headcanon where it stitches your body together while you’re basically still moving and I keep thinking about how that would apply to bbh in the dungeon vod

like he burned through over 20 of them and IGH the angst and hurt/comfort whump potential there

I’ve seen some really good fanart on Twitter of the same idea

but I really have to imagine how using dozens of totems in the same hour would affect a body

he was running around like “I’m alright”, but are you bbh??? 😭 are you really??

I just want to see more talk about the horrors

first 5 faceless emojis are how your summers gonna go

AU where both Etoiles and BBH are both aro but they don’t know or understand that being aro is a thing so they both just think something is wrong with them so to try and feel “normal” they start dating

they both figure out really quick that they admire the other a lot and enjoy each others company but definitely don’t feel any romantic feelings for each other but have accidentally faked romantic feelings and think the other one is in love with them and they feel so bad for misleading them that they just don’t break up and keep going on for years until they’re married with kids

just the type of shenanigans I think they’d get up to

they sleep in separate beds 1950s style

When you read fanfics, specifically on Ao3, let’s say a word count of about 12000, would you prefer it to come out over time, chapter by chapter, or all at once? I want to write a fic but I’m struggling in piecing it all together/finding time, so idk if people like one big one shot to just appear one day or if people enjoy waiting for chapters to come out

did anyone write anything about bad and Etoiles finding comfort in both of their bodies decaying?

these two really are two sides of the same coin

I wanted to add a little epilogue where shortly after meeting each other they immediately get sucked up into portal that thankfully dumps them out onto Lon Lon Ranch. Malon finds them stumbling through her pastures, takes in the dried blood in Legend’s hairline and Hyrule’s drenched appearance. She basically looks at two pathetic drenched cats and takes them in. She has them feeling better in no time with a meal, baths, and a potion. When Time gets back home introductions and explanations go around. Upon hearing that they’re all called Link they’re like: omg it’s such a common name.

They think it’s a coincidence until Malon tells them: “you guys fell out of a portal. Nature is attacking you. You all have the same name. You don’t think you’re connected somehow?”

And then they’re all finally like: oh

I just think they’re all kinda dumb like that 💕 affectionately

AU where the Hyrule and Legend meet first before the rest of the chain.

The portal dumps Hyrule right in the middle of the ocean. Even if he could swim it would be futile as there’s no land for many miles. As he starts to drown he sees a flash of shimmering scales. He loses and regains consciousness over and over again over a course of time that he can’t count. Each time he wakes sees pretty pink scales, pink hair, gills, and violet eyes. Sometimes he even hears the comforting few notes of a song.

When he finally comes to it’s tucked safely under a cluster of palm trees on the shore of an unfamiliar beach in an even more unfamiliar, but familiar, Hyrule. He has to wonder if the goddess really does love him or if he really was rescued by a mermaid.

Legend had never intended to leave the unfortunate Hylian behind. He left him in a safe spot on the shore before looking for a nearby village that could give better medical attention than he could. He never would have expected an avalanche to descend out of nowhere. It’s not even rainy season. Before he can run or activate a shield he’s struck across the head and knows no more.

He gains consciousness a few times and each he sees the shining form of a green fairy, a color of fairy he’s never seen before. Each time he wakes he hears soft chiming and feels the warmth of fairy magic in his blood. When he finally comes to he’s nestled safely in the roots of a great old tree. He wonders if the green fairy was real or if one of his rings just activated.

Legend and Hyrule both travel for a day aching and tired. Each of them are determined to find the unfortunate soul they had to momentarily leave alone. They run into each other on the road and recognize one another immediately. Do they mention their acts of kindness or blatant recognition? NO.

Maybe one day in the future they mention being saved by a mermaid/odd green fairy. Do they piece together each other’s stories? Maybe…

Can someone explain the portrait of the lady from the bbh stream? I haven’t been able to catch up

I am of the opinion that the baddie in the painting is Bad
