"Okay," Zelda said, smacking her fist into her palm. "This one is going to be it."
Silently, her companion added a scratch mark to some parchment he'd been carrying.
Zelda glanced at him, eyes narrowing. "Are you keeping tabs?"
"Only when you say this one is going to be it or some variation of it," Link replied smoothly.
Zelda huffed, ready to argue, when out of curiosity she asked, "Where are we at?"
"Eight."
"Ha! I expected more! This is good, then."
Link sighed. "What's the story with this one?"
"Hear me out," Zelda started excitedly, spreading her hands like she was opening a large book. "A thousand years ago our land was encased in shadow."
Link stopped his horse, staring at her. "Is this another one of Beedle's stories? The last one nearly got us killed."
"No, no, no!" Zelda grumbled, rolling her eyes. "This one is from my family. History may have turned to hearsay and legend for the common folk of Hyrule, but it's sacred to my family. This one actually happened!"
Link raised an eyebrow, skeptical, but urged his steed to start moving nonetheless.
"So," Zelda continued. "A thousand years ago, shadows came to our land and cursed our people. My ancestor joined up with royalty from a distant land and together, they summoned the Hero of Light, who destroyed the shadows. That very Hero lived in the village we're going to!"
Link had to admit... he was still dubious, but he was a little curious. "An actual Hero? There's relics of one of the acutal Heroes? What royalty from a distant land? The only neighboring land I know of fell to ruin a hundred years ago."
"I don't know where it was, honestly," Zelda answered sincerely. "They were always really vague about it and I don't know why. But apparently the person died, so they honored her sacrifice."
Link hummed, tossing his braid back over his shoulder. After going through multiple villages, towns, and even a city, the fact that they were going somewhere that might have housed an actual Hero at some point in history was almost promising. Perhaps Zelda would find who she was looking for and Link could return to his quiet home and avoid all this mess.
It seemed too good to be true, though. Heroes were relegated to myths. The only reason he knew those myths were real was because of his parents. But still... they were ancient.
Surely no such catastrophe could strike the land now. The princess was just naive, right?
"Ah! We're here!" Zelda announced happily, bringing her horse's steady stroll to an end. Link watched her climb off before following suit.
"Where is here?" he asked as they passed a spring.
"Ordon Village," the princess replied, popping her hands on her hips and smiling with pride.
Link stood there beside her, staring a moment and sniffing tentatively. "It smells like manure."
Zelda scrunched her nose. "It does not! What if that smell is something else entirely?"
"It's definitely manure, Highness."
"Well your town smelled like it too!"
"My town is a trading hub!"
"I can't even smell any--" Zelda stopped in mid-sentence as the wind changed directions, scrunching her nose. "Oh."
Link turned to her, now completely affronted. "What did you smell before that made you think of my town?"
Zelda waived a dismissive hand. "Doesn't matter - we have to find the Hero!"
Link sighed, following the princess into the village. "Your Highness, your story is from a thousand years ago. That Hero is long gone."
"Of course he is," Zelda replied with a roll of her eyes. "But there's word of someone named Link who lives here!"
One royal pronouncement and excited welcome later, the pair found themselves standin gover a crib.
"Well," Link quipped. "I suppose he could cry the enemy to death."
Zelda's sour look was response enough.
"Is there a Rattle that Seals the Darkness?"
"Just shut up."
The princess could only be upset for so long before she started cooing at the baby and laughing as the little bundle giggled in reply. Even Link had to smile fondly at it. The two congratulated the happy couple and gave them their well wishes before dining with the village and setting out once more.
"I think your story was a bit off," Link remarked as they walked their horses to the edge of the village.
"Just because the lead was false doesn't mean that a Hero didn't once live here," the princess said a little stiffly. "My family's history speaks of it."
He didn't argue. His own father spoke often of the royal family's role in helping Hyrule remember its history. He just... well, he had to admit he was a little disappointed. While he wasn't nearly as excited by history as his father, the promise of seeing traces of the Hero had been simultaneously intriguing and unnerving.
Either way, it was back to the road for them.
The masseur paused as the princess continued, glancing over at the spring as something sparkly caught his eye. Was that... was that a fairy? He hadn't seen one of those since he was a child, and that had only been once! Distracted, he hovered back a hair as Zelda plodded ahead, but the princess noticed his stillness.
"What is it?" she asked, coming back to him, before she saw it too. With an excited gasp, she rushed ahead, and Link tripped over himself to follow her.
The fairy flitted away quickly, but the pair stopped nonetheless.
They were back at the spring, but behind the waterfalls that fed into it, they could make out a small engraving. The two slinked around the edge of the spring (Link nearly face planted on the smooth, slick stone) until they managed to get behind the roaring water. Link shivered as they both got soaked in the misty spray, but the princess seemed completely unbothered.
Zelda's hand snaked around his upper arm, eyes fixed on a point, and she whispered, "It's him."
Link was about to question what she meant, wondering how a stone could mean anything, when he squinted at engraved words that were below a half worn symbol of the Triforce.
-ink
-elove- --ther and husba--
H-ro of L--t & Sh-d-w
"There's no grave here," Link noted softly.
"A monument to him, then," Zelda noted, though a little confusedly. "Why wouldn't they bury him here, or somewhere with honor?"
Link stared at the stone, eyes trailing down to see fresh flowers placed there. The villagers know and didn't tell the princess. A soft smile pulled at his lips. "He comes from a pretty humble place. I think... I think he wanted to keep it that way."
The princess hummed, still perplexed but trying to understand. Eventually, though, she knelt, folding her hands in prayer. Link sank to his knees, sitting on his legs rather than kneeling, eyes looking beyond the words half lost to time. He thought of the history behind his name, and behind his people, and he wished for a moment that he could claim to be part of such a heroic lineage. If the Heroes of Hyrule were truly like this...
He sighed, closing his eyes and bowing his head in honor.

FIC!!! DAY!!
Auradon Prep is built on the bones of a castle. One that was intended to house a city in times of need.
The hallways of the outer courtyard are built to accommodate horses, and they’re more than big enough for two groups of students to pass through without running into each other.
One of the lacrosse boys pulls his bag back up his shoulder. His heavy, overstuffed gear bag. Which he just used to hit Evie.
“Get out of the way, evils,” he sneers. “Can’t you tell when your betters are coming through?”
“I can tell that you’re not one of them,” Evie snaps. “You would do well to keep your mouth shut next time, and keep your filthy equipment to yourself.”
The boy stops walking. “Make me.”
From there, it's basically fight-on-sight.

i'm a twisted wretched thing who loves like a dog long euthanized, an ancient tomb ransacked and a coffin nailed shut too long ago —
why do i love like i'm dead and you've forgotten to mourn me?
i smile at the wind and the grass and food and empathize with clouds when it rains too much or too little and dust when it settles, i live in the cracked walls of my sister's cramped art studio, broken dishes set aside in my mother's kitchen, the scratched keychain on my father's belt loop waiting to be thrown away — i crave the act of being seen, relish in being the niche thing appreciated by the curious eyes and softened heart, the one thing you can't let go yet can't understand all the same.
i love desperately, pathetically, unrequited in paracosm.
i want to be touched but i am cold and curled fatally fetal in the centre of my room, four walls but two colored charcoal (i can't seem to move on from the idea of you) the other two apricot and forest green — i want to talk to you with my mouth full of citrus and acidic things but i don't want to hear you speak (if you do i'll know you love me less because you know me more)
i want to be loved (not entirely, not really but yes)

The fact that there is a city in Utah called Layton and it is about five miles away from another town called Kaysville just makes me feel like the state of Utah is content made just for me.

In canon, Dolores knew that Bruno was in the walls. In the Bruno on the Isle AU, did anyone know that he was secretly living within Hell Hall? Cecil? Diego? (Also I will totally reblog all the asks of mine you've answered recently, I just haven't been able to do so yet because I'm at home so I can't properly access Tumblr at the moment. But I'll do it as soon as I can.)
Never worry about you answering late with me, I'm terrible at keeping tabs on when to do it myself, for one reason or another. As you see, I'm answering late too, lol.
For the first year, no one did, Bruno was very careful about not blowing his cover. Cecil asked Ella where Bruno went and she only answered she kicked him out and didn't care what has been of him. But Cecil cared, they were friends at that point and he owed Bruno a lot since he took care of Diego in his first months. Yet, he couldn't find him anywhere and worried he was comatose in a ditch or worse, trapped in the basement of Hell Hall (he didn't want to think badly of his sister but, eh, he knew her too well not to suspect she had a more active hand in her husband's disappearance).
Yet, the first one to know Bruno was alive and well, was Will Baker, Anastasia Tremaine's husband. You know the snippet with Carlos being ill, Bruno went to Will to see if there was a cure because he worried Cecil, with his blind loyalty to Ella, would have told her something. The next to know was, of course, Facilier, whose shadows had informed him. Mr. Ratigan's crew knew too, as they had an alliance, Ratigan Jr was actually friends with Bruno who taught him to act, along with a lot of other rats. Bruno wrote the Ratanovelas for them and offered shelter, they helped him out by keeping an eye on Carlos and providing other stuff.
Cecil eventually figured out that Bruno had never left Hell Hall, it was more of a suspicion at first, so he waited for a day when he knew Cruella wouldn't be home to find clues, and he did, although he didn't manage to speak with him directly, he did told him he was sorry Ella treated him bad and he was willing to help, if Bruno could still trust him.
Years later, Carlos had one of his legs broken in a chase and Bruno didn't know what to do, so he did go to Cecil for help. Never for himself, but he'd do anything for Carlos' sake. Cecil tried to convince Bruno to tell Carlos everything but he refused, as he believed that kind of life fitted him better, and also that Carlos would have suffered from the conflicts that would arise in the whole family if he tried to be back in his life openly.
When Carlos was selected to go to Auradon, Maleficent didn't give the kids time or chance to go back home to pack, it all happened in a matter of hours, she summoned the other three Villains to tell them what was going to happen, then got the Rotten Four to Bargain Castle to tell them too and they were shipped that very day, too quickly to realize. Carlos' garbage bag was put together by Hunter, who overheard and managed to get that much before the limo arrived (Carlos trusted his eldest cousin and grabbed the garbage bag without questioning it. All the De Vil cousins wanted out and knew Carlos needed out more than anyone. Ivy and her kids could wait, Diego was one of the most beloved children of the Isle by his parents, Hunter was old enough to do well, but Carlos? No, Carlos had to get out the first chance he got).
Ahem. I digressed.
So, Carlos is sent out before the news could spread enough to get to Bruno, who thought Carlos would be at school or around with his new friends. When Carlos didn't come back home that night, he worried a bit but assumed he must have stayed in the nice hideout Mal and Jay had built and the Rotten Four sometimes crashed at, but no, Carlos was gone for more than two days and he never was and Bruno worried. Eventually, he ran out to ask Cecil who told him Carlos was in Auradon, safe and sound (Bruno cried a lot when he heard. of happiness but also because he knew he'd miss Carlos so damn much and he regretted he couldn't give him a letter to give his family to let them know who Carlos was and beg them to take care of him...), and it was then that Diego and Hunter found out about him living in the walls of Hell Hall. They told Ivy, who told her husband and parents, who told PH. Eventually, they even told Ivy's kids and Hunter's partner.
No one told Cruella, by common agreement she didn't need to know and it was better if she didn't have a clue (they all liked weird Uncle Bruno). In fact, she'll only find out at her own trial of domestic abuse, way after the Barrier will be open and Bruno is allowed to move back into Encanto.

if our descendant isn't reblogged, are they still considered """"canon""""
i don’t exactly have a canon beyond these posts, at least for the time being. i might work on a loose storyline featuring the main descendants in the future (and that’s a VERY big “might” that i probably wont ever get around to). but for now yes, everyone is canon <3

General Holiday Season Rant because I'm ~emotionally drained~ and just need to vent/scream into the void/flail/idk:
I took everything but my remote days off of work for the last few weeks of the year with the intention of staying inside and doing nothing but writing. So far that's turned into a surprise birthday party for a sibling, then another day-of dinner for same sibling, a movie, a family trip into town for a Santa photo op for my niece/nephew, 3 Target trips, and now a Costco trip. I've accomplished nothing writing wise and never want to leave my house again. :| ADHD brain is in a very "work from the top down" on my drafts right now - like, the only way I can function is to literally start at the top and take it one at a time, so I'm REALLY sorry for everything I'm late on while replying to things as they pop up. I will be less of a mess soon (hopefully). Tomorrow is the first day that I think I'll be safe/no plans/have warned everyone not to even ask me to do anything so maybe I'll make some progress then. ;^;

verses (more to be added at a later date):
SKY HIGH: set during and after the movie. see here for the lore.
SKY U: main timeline. (sky high & sky u have been folded into the marvel continuity on this blog and i will write a post on that later.) khione has graduated from sky high and is now enrolled in sky u. but of course the life of a hero in training is never easy. it wasn't in high school and it won't be in college slash university, either.
THE BOYS / GEN V: khione has been injected with compound v much like her parents before her. she's got access to cryokinesis and hydrokinesis, though. she's currently enrolled in god u and, due to her parents, chose the crimson countess track despite the fact that she's got what it takes and actually wanted to try her hand at getting into the lamplighter track. while people called her freeze girl in high school, these days, her chosen hero name is frostbite.
INVINCIBLE: third gen with hydro/cryo abilities. goes to the same school as mark and samantha. declined an invitation to join the teen team and joined up with the stronghold six, which then turned into the stronghold seven.
MARVEL: main universe. mutant with hydro/cryo abilities. think iceman. (she wants to meet iceman so bad.) her parents wanted to send her to xavier's but ended up relenting when khione made it clear that she wanted to go to sky high and sky u (but that win came with a price).
the gifted: a mutant with hydro/cryo abilities. she's with the mutant underground and has made a sizable donation (it's not like her parents will miss the money.)
DC: metahuman with hydro/cryo abilities. think caitlin snow. except khione's had hers since birth. she has an undisputed love for ice heroes and ice villains.
THE UMBRELLA ACADEMY: has hydro/cryo abilities. her parents - who have similar powers - run in the same affluent circles as allison.
DESCENDANTS: a well known auradon born. daughter of two retired heroes (permafrost and ganga) who have been planning out her entire life. her parents are
TEEN WOLF: third gen ice (and water) elemental who has lived in beacon hills since forever. it doesn't take her that long to figure out that werewolves are a thing. she's not part of any pack but wouldn't balk at helping out if need be. has a soft spot for scott mccall and the mccall pack as a whole.
TWILIGHT: vampire who has a combination of hydrokinesis and cryokinesis as her special ability. comes from a long line of vampires with similar abilities.
FIRST KILL: legacy who comes from a long line of vampires with extra abilities: her dad is a cryokinetic and her mom is a hydrokinetic. khione has inherited both powers, which is great. she's also inherited their enemies, which is not so great.
TVD: third gen ice (and water) elemental who is around jeremy's age and has been posing as an ice witch so far. not really part of the mystic falls gang but wouldn't say no to helping them either.
THE ORIGINALS: third gen ice (and water) elemental who is wandering around new orleans in search of her friends.
LEGACIES: third gen ice (and water) elemental, starts out at mystic falls high but ends up transferring to salvatore's when her powers get exposed. thinks malivore is a dumb name. not part of the super squad or the anti squad but helps both out if need be. she mostly hangs out with the stronghold six (and when she joins the group as their seventh and final member, the name changes from the stronghold six to the stronghold seven).
COBRA KAI: khione is trying her best to stay out of the karate war, lest anyone finds out that she actually has powers. but her parents want her to get lessons from daniel, specifically, because he's so well known. khione would really rather not, though.
ONCE UPON A TIME: khione arrives in storybrooke much like elsa did in season four, turning storybrooke into a winter wonderland. the young elemental is only here for one thing and one thing only: finding her friends.
