Gratitude Part 2: Twilight

Summary: Eight times Sky receives a gratitude crystal from the chain plus one time he gives some away. Twilight's turn :D

I said I was going to wait to post these on AO3 BUT I changed my mind XD. So here's the AO3 link.

Part 1. Art for part 1!! Art for part 2!!

“Hyah!” Twilight yelled as Epona galloped past. 

A whoosh of air made Sky’s sailcloth flutter and the stomps of the goats barreling into the barn echoed in his ears. He scooted closer to Colin.

“So…” Colin trailed off uncertainly. 

Sky glanced over at him with a raised eyebrow. He consciously tried to relax his muscles and make his body language as unintimidating as he could. 

“So?” Sky asked lightly. 

“You’re a hero too? Like Link?” Colin asked. 

“I am,” Sky said. He fought to keep the reluctance out of his voice. Colin didn’t need to be subjected to Sky’s true feelings about his place in the world. 

“From far away, though,” Sky said. 

“I’ve been to Kakariko! That’s pretty far,” Colin said. 

Sky smiled. “A lot farther than that.”

“Woah,” Colin said. 

One of the goats stomped past and Sky gulped. He pulled his sailcloth tighter around his shoulders for comfort and leaned even closer towards Colin.

“Are you scared?” Colin asked. 

“A little,” Sky answered with a chuckle. 

“What? How are you afraid of the goats?” Colin asked. 

“We don’t have big animals like goats or horses where I’m from, besides our Loftwings. I get nervous around them.”

“Oh. Huh,” Colin mumbled. “You must be from really far.”

Sky laughed and nodded. “Really far,” he agreed. 

Colin looked like he wanted to ask more questions, and Sky wasn’t sure how much Twilight wanted him to know, so he quickly changed the subject.

“From what your brother has said, it sounds like you’re a hero, too,” Sky said. 

Colin blushed and straightened his back. “I- not like Link. I’m not the hero, or anything. But I did save my friend, once.”

“Oh yeah?” Sky asked. 

“Mhm,” Colin mumbled. “I pushed her out of the way of a giant bullbos. It grabbed me instead of her.”

“That sounds pretty heroic to me,” Sky said. “And pretty scary.”

“I wasn’t scared,” Colin said. “Heroes don’t get scared. Link isn’t afraid of anything.”

Sky wasn’t willing to tarnish Colin’s image of Twilight, even if Sky knew his fears. More than once, Twilight had woken up panicked from nightmares and Sky was the one to comfort him. Twilight always worried over the others, so he tried to take care of them in whatever ways he could. And, most of all, Sky knew Twilight worried about his little brother. 

“I get scared,” Sky said. “Sometimes. But being brave is about doing hard things even when you’re scared.”  

“I wasn’t scared,” Colin said. His ears flattened against his head and the tips turned pink. His gaze was locked on the last goat running towards the barn. 

“I believe you,” Sky said. “Thank you for telling me.”

The slam of the barn door startled Sky. Twilight fastened the lock then turned Epona to gallop over to where Sky and Colin were sitting. They both rose to their feet and Sky clapped for him.

“All in,” Twilight said. 

“Yes!” Colin cheered. 

“I’ve never seen anything like that,” Sky said. The tips of Twilight’s ears turned pink as he jumped off his horse with a wide grin.

“It ain’t hard, once you learn how to do it,” Twilight said, his accent thick. 

Twilight’s accent was stronger in the last few days of being in Ordon than Sky had heard throughout their entire journey. Sky wondered if he realized, or if it was subconscious. Sky also worried he was toning it down on purpose around them. He would have to make sure to ask Twilight about that, later. 

“Tomorrow, we should take Sky to feed the goats,” Colin said. 

Sky blinked in surprise. “What?”

Twilight grinned and slung an arm around Colin’s shoulder. Colin pretended to look annoyed, but Sky didn’t miss the way he leaned into Twilight’s side. 

“I’m not so sure about that,” Twilight said. “Our Skyloftian isn’t too fond of ‘em.”

“That’s why we have to show him how to feed them! They always let me pet them when they get their food,” Colin said. 

Twilight glanced uncertainly towards Sky, clearly torn between not wanting to push Sky and appeasing his brother. Sky swallowed his fear and pulled back his shoulders. 

“I’d love to join,” Sky said. “Besides, you won’t let anything happen to me. Right, Colin?”

“Of course not!” Twilight said. “You’ve got the two heroes of Hyrule right here! You’ll be perfectly safe.”

Colin beamed up at his brother as Twilight squeezed his shoulder. Sky held back an awww with monumental effort. 

“We best be heading back now,” Twilight said. 

“Oh! Oh! Can I take Epona?” Colin asked. 

“Sure you can, so long as you’re careful,” Twilight said. 

“Yes!” Colin said. He was able to pull himself into Epona’s saddle, though Twilight’s hands hovered just in case he fell. 

“Hyah!” Colin yelled as he flicked Epona’s reins. She galloped towards the gate and jumped over at the last second, then thundered down the path. Sky and Twilight followed at a much more leisurely pace. 

“Thanks for comin’,” Twilight said. “I like to give Fado the night off, when I can.”

Sky glanced over and saw the beginnings of a gratitude crystal forming over Twilight’s head. Sky felt a warmth spread through him. He knew how much spending time together meant to Twilight.

“Thanks for asking me to. I’ve never seen goats before,” Sky said. “And talking to your brother was nice.”

“Thanks for doing that, too,” Twilight said. The beginnings of the crystal pulsed, doubling in size. “He doesn’t meet strangers often.”

“He’s a cool kid,” Sky said. 

“You really want to feed the goats tomorrow?” Twilight asked. 

Sky shrugged. “Sure. Colin seemed excited about it. And I know how much you love your goats, farm boy.”

Twilight laughed and the gratitude crystal burst to life above Twilight’s head. Sky laughed along with him as the crystal floated down to his chest and filled him with his favorite feeling of warmth. Sky bounced on his toes and skipped a few paces, then bounced back next to Twilight. 

Sky reached out and grabbed Twilight's hand, loosely enough that he could pull away if he wanted to. Twilight was never one to deny physical touch, in Sky’s experience. Twilight squeezed his hand and gave Sky a wide smile as Sky swung their arms. 

“The goats may look big and scary, but they’d never hurt a fly,” Twilight said. “Just don’t try to take their food.”

“Noted,” Sky said with a happy laugh.

#thank you all for all the ideas on the last part!! #I am planning on using a few of them #and even if I dont use them I love seeing them #so feel free to add more ideas here! #twilight's love languages are acts of service and quality time #ace writes #linked universe #lu sky #lu twilight #lu colin #he's so cute guys #gratitude #i accidentally wrote sky as autistic #so im leaning into it now #autistic sky #I just can't imagine him NOT happy stimming when he receives a gratitude crystal

Awakening your spirit daily is like greeting the sunrise with open arms, embracing the new day’s potential. It’s a sacred act of self-love and empowerment, a declaration that you are the mistress of your own destiny. Here’s how you can do it:

Morning Affirmations: Start your day with positive affirmations. Look in the mirror and declare your intentions with conviction. Say it loud, say it proud: “I am powerful, I am magical, I am love!”

Meditation & Breathwork: Center yourself with a meditation session. Inhale confidence, exhale doubt. Let your breath guide you to inner peace and clarity.

Gratitude Journaling: Take a moment to jot down what you’re grateful for. Gratitude is the gateway to abundance, and acknowledging your blessings amplifies your spiritual frequency.

Rituals & Spellwork: Whether it’s lighting a candle, drawing a tarot card, or crafting a spell, daily rituals connect you to the divine. They’re your spiritual workout, keeping your witchy muscles strong and your craft finely tuned.

Nature Connection: Ground yourself by walking barefoot on the grass or hugging a tree. Mother Earth’s energy is rejuvenating and reminds you that you’re part of something greater.

Crystal Companions: Carry a crystal that resonates with your intention for the day. Let it be a tangible reminder of your inner strength and magic.

The importance of daily rituals lies in their power to transform routine into something mystical. They’re the threads that weave the tapestry of your spiritual practice, each day adding a new stroke to the masterpiece that is your life. By committing to your craft every day, you’re not just going through the motions; you’re cultivating a magical life, one spell at a time. So, boss up, goddess! Your daily devotion to your spirit is the ultimate act of self-care and empowerment. Shine on! ✨

The Presence of the Unknowable

Crystal Woman: The Sisters of the Dreamtime

Lynn V. Andrews

"'You told me once about diving into a lagoon and seeing a moray eel coming slowly out of its hole in a cliff of coral. It was looking right at you. He was very territorial and would have bitten you, probably fatally, had you not backed away. If he had killed you, would that have been right or wrong?'

'Not great for me,' I said.

'It is what it is. If you're dead, you're dead. You were in his place and he didn't like that. Many other fish of the deep just swim with you. They don't care, yea. That eel is like a sorcerer. He doesn't like your presence near his domain. He lives in a different world. He gives you a warning, maybe and maybe not, and then he goes for you. That is the beginning, my daughter, of war, the instinct for possession. That eel may have been male or female. Would it have made a difference?'

'I'm not sure,' I said.

'If she were female she might kill you out of fear, fear that you would injure her young. In ancient times women were known as the most fierce fighters because of this platform of fear. If he were male he would kill you because he has marked his domain. There is something in a male that is in the very root of his being; he will go to war for what he claims as his property. This extends to the domain of ideas as well. He will destroy even himself for an idea. A woman will survive to be able to protect a belief structure that usually houses her family whether it be a family of ideas or children. So her basis for war usually is born of fear deep in the primal part of herself. War, like an idea or a belief system, is man's greatest addiction and his greatest vulnerability. A warring human likes to live on the sheer edge of life and death. Such a state can almost be sacred because it involves living intensely in the now. There's only one problem.'

'What's that?'

'That kind of now, the source of it, is illusion, yea. The illusion produced by addiction. That's how you can say that all experience is the same. That kind of experience is all the same. Because it all is born from addiction and it has one collective purpose, which is to keep you psychically asleep.'

'How is that different from the sacred now?'

"Only the shaman, the sorcerer, or the magician knows that kind of sacred now. Asa shaman you dwell in the almost fatal crack between light and darkness where the beings of mystery swim in unknown rivers of energy. As a shamaness you're like a cosmic architect building dams made of prayer sticks and lightning rods and you alter the shape and course of those rivers of energy. That is the power of creation. That too is a world of light and death and great danger. There are definite laws and formulas. But if you live through the initiations you have become the ultimate alchemist. Your own soul has burned through the agonizing fires of transformation and you become the goddess on earth. You can heal the mind and the heart of your suffering brothers and sisters because you have also suffered. You can change sand into gold. You know the ancient formula handed down through the ages, from one shaman to another, yea. Understand why you have been born. Not to hurt, but to heal and to teach. In a sense you have lived your whole life to be here with us in the Outback of Australia to heal Booru.' Ginevee had picked up one of the West crystals and was rubbing it between her palms . I weighed her words in my mind for a long time, until she handed me the crystal."
