Traced some old sticky note doodles last night!! Here is a bunn (or two, plus Warriors). Legend's outfit is just his green undertunic and belt because I didn't like trying to give him his red tunic. Couldn't bear to take away his ear cuff tho, he needs it.
Characters are from @ageless-soul-au, please don't tag as other AUs!!

he got scars on heem littol feets 🥺 (also i am very intrigued about the brand Ravi had,,care to share sum info bout that?)
i fucking looooove drawing the blade trap scars, they r so painful. all over legends calves in hylian form, and theyre just as noticeable when he's bunny, but now without tall boots and socks to hide them.
about ravio!!!! an excerpt from counterpart:
There were scars around his wrists that he hadn't noticed before, thin, silvery, but jagged and running the entire way around. 
Ravio noticed him running his thumb over them and smiled weakly. ".....I'll trade you story for story, i-if you're interested...."
Link nodded. This was fine. He could do this. “Tell me…?”
"I was arrested when I was eleven. Pickpocketing, for someone who paid me with food. When I wasn't cutesy-baby looking anymore, people started to suspect me when their wallets would go missing..... I spent two years in jail. Got my thieves' brand and everything." 
Link felt like he would regret asking, knowing Lorule, but… “Thieves' brand…?”
Ravio murmured an affirmation, and pulled Link's hand around to the back of his neck. He felt raised skin, scar tissue in the shape of the Lorulean character for T, backwards from the Hylian equivalent, just beneath Ravio's hairline. 
".......The scarf.... It wasn't initially a fashion statement."
Link’s heart hurt. “Shit, Rav… I’m so sorry… That must have been hell…” And, just because he wanted to, and his hand was right there, he let his fingers slide up into his hair below the ridge of his skull. It was coarser and thicker than Link’s, but soft. He liked it.
so ravi grew up in lorule poverty well before hilda's rule, and was caught stealing and was imprisoned and branded.

for the purposes of asau, lorulean is just backwards hylian, so the letter T is basically the same. if your brain works a certain way, lorulean might not be so hard to read as a hylian that uses the albw/botw lettering system. but he got branded with a T for thief, whereas if, idk say wind were to get caught and charged of piracy and the region had a similar policy, he'd be branded with a P for pirate. brands for crimes can be on the hands, face, shoulders, etc, and this was found out just through some surface googling.
so yeah! rav has done some crimes. legend has probably kissed that brand a lot tbh and wars could too tbh,,,,,
