Sinking Deep: Ch. 1

Summary: When Legend and Wind go missing in a dangerous town, Hyrule takes it upon himself to find them.

This is the secret Legend and Hyrule story for @star-ocean-peahen's fic raffle gift! I know I said this would be a one shot but it kept growing XD. It was making me a little anxious how long it's been since I started this so I decided to break it up and post in short chapters :D. I hope you enjoy!!!

Warnings: trafficking, canon-typical violence, Hyrule is ignored a bit in the beginning (it’s because everyone’s stressed but that doesn’t make it okay (don’t worry they apologize)), kidnapping, violence against children, implied child trafficking, human trafficking, animal trafficking (only the Hyrule bit happens in this chapter- these are the warnings for the whole fic)

Hyrule’s knee bounced anxiously. He twisted his hands together over and over, and his eyes were locked on the door. 

“Maybe if we just-” Hyrule said as he quickly rose to his feet.

Twilight’s hand clamped onto his shoulder and pushed him back down into the chair. It was, to Hyrule’s vague surprise, just as gentle as the last four times it’s happened this hour. 

“Rulie,” Twilight said with a sigh. “They’ll be back soon.”

Hyrule huffed and leaned back in his seat. He let his head hang over the back of the chair and stared at the ceiling. 

“I just want to help,” Hyrule muttered. Twilight sighed again. Hyrule was sure his lungs were getting a good workout with how many times he sighed today.

“I know. Me too,” Twilight said. “But they’d clock us as outsiders as soon as we step out that door.”

Hyrule crossed his arms and lifted his head up, locking his gaze on the door again. “Like Wild isn’t just as weird.”

Twilight laughed, this time. It was breathy and quiet, but Hyrule still felt a small smile tug at his lips. “Wild can get through town without being seen,” Twilight argued. 

Knock knock. 

Hyrule jumped out of his seat. Twilight held out a hand; Hyrule held his breath. 

Knock knock. 

Pause.

Knock.

Hyrule jumped to the door and unlocked it as quickly as he could. He threw the door open and Warriors and Four rushed into the room. Hyrule quickly locked the door behind them then whipped around.

“Did you find them?” Hyrule asked. 

Warriors shook his head as he leaned over the table with the town map. 

“No luck,” Four said. 

Hyrule wrung his hands together anxiously. 

“Sky and Time should be back any second. Maybe they found something,” Twilight said. 

Hyrule turned his anxious gaze to Twilight. Twilight didn’t look sure of his own words; Hyrule felt his anxiety increase.

“Where haven’t we checked?” Four asked. He pulled a chair over to the table with the map and knelt in it with his elbows on the table. 

Warriors sighed and moved pointed one hand at the map. “Here, but that’s close enough to Sky and Time’s search area that they might get it.”

Knock knock. 

Everyone whipped around to face the door, Again, Hyrule held his breath. 

Knock knock. 

Pause.

Knock.

Hyrule leapt to the door and flung it open. Sky and Time rushed in and Hyrule locked it behind them. Time pushed Sky onto the bed and immediately bent to dig through his bag. Sky huffed and slumped as he sat. Through the curtain of Sky’s bangs, Hyrule could see a split cheek and a black eye forming.

“What happened to you?” Warriors asked. 

Sky’s fists clenched, then he sighed and forced them open. “It’s nothing.”

Time produced a red potion from his bag and wordlessly held it out to Sky. Sky shook his head and tried to push it away. Time leveled a harsh glare in his direction, so Sky relented and took a small sip. Time looked displeased.

“We should save it. I’m fine, really,” Sky said as he handed the potion back. 

“You didn’t find them?” Hyrule asked. 

Sky shook his head. Time had his back turned, but Hyrule could read the tension in his shoulders easily. 

Sky opened his mouth to respond, but was cut off by the window flying open. Wild vaulted through the window and landed in a crouch on the floor. He pushed the window shut and it bounced slightly on the latch to remain ajar.

“Anything?” Warriors asked as Wild stood. 

Wild pulled off his hood and shook his head. With a couple taps of his slate, his weird, skin-tight clothes disappeared and were replaced with his normal tunic and trousers. 

“No sign of Wind or Legend. I listened in some bars, too, but no one said anything helpful,” Wild reported. 

Hyrule’s heart felt like it plummeted into his feet. 

“No one else?” Wild asked, looking around the room with wide eyes. 

Warriors shook his head as his gaze fell back to the town map.

“What do we do now?” Wild asked, approaching the map. Sky, Twilight, and Time followed. 

“You said you last saw them here?” Warriors asked, glancing at Sky and pointing to a spot on the map Hyrule couldn’t see. 

“Yeah, heading this way,” Sky said. He leaned over the map, effectively blocking Hyrule’s view. 

Hyrule huffed and leaned back. He glanced around the room then moved to the window, desperate to catch sight of any clues. At the edge of his view, Hyrule saw a river flowing around the town. Hyrule gasped. 

“I have an idea!” Hyrule said. He whipped around, but no one heard him. Hyrule shoved his way into the huddle. 

“Guys, we should look by the river! We’re looking for the Sailor, he would have wanted to see the water,” Hyrule said. 

Warriors frowned at the map, then shook his head. 

“They weren’t heading in that direction,” Warriors said. 

“That was in the morning, though. Legend probably made him wait until they picked up everything they needed,” Hyrule argued. 

Hyrule glanced around the group. Everyone was frowning. Hyrule felt his frustration with the situation increase. 

Warriors shook his head again. “None of the things on their list are on that side of town.”

“It wouldn’t hurt to check,” Hyrule said. 

“I was over there a bit and I didn’t see anything,” Wild said. He shrugged apologetically at Hyrule. 

“That’s the most dangerous sector, from what I heard,” Sky said. 

“Then we should definitely check there!” Hyrule said. 

Time crossed his arms and glanced out the window. “It’s best to stay away from that sector unless we have evidence they were there.”

Everyone turned back to the map, accepting Time’s word as law. 

Hyrule felt like he could rip his hair out. He flopped down onto his chair with a frustrated huff. The others were deep into their conversation already, plotting out their next moves.

Hyrule glanced between the group and the window. No one was paying him any attention; no one would notice if he slipped out. 

Almost immediately, his mind was made up. Legend and Wind needed help, and if no one else was willing to take a risk, Hyrule would have to do it himself. 

As quietly as he could, Hyrule tiptoed over to his bag. His sword was propped against the wall next to it. Hyrule glanced at the group again to confirm no one was watching, then slipped his sword into his bag. He pulled the bag over his shoulders, silently thankful for the sound dampening enchantments, then crept to the window. It was still cracked from Wild’s entrance. 

Hyrule glanced back one last time, then slipped out the window.

[the-entire-cast-needs-therapy]

Hey so I know we all treat Adora’s general suspicion of Shadow Weaver as valid because Shadow Weaver is 1) her abuser and 2) just a generally shady motherfucker but are we just going to ignore that this line: 

“Shadow Weaver has actual shadow spies--we met them.”

Comes well after Shadow Weaver has lost her connection to the Black Garnet and, by extension, has to use another magic battery (e.g., Glimmer) or magic plants in order to do any kind of magic at all at this point? And also the fact that Shadow Weaver is right there in Brightmoon, so she wouldn’t need to use her shadow spies even if she were spying on them? I mean, maybe the assumption was that Shadow Weaver would use those spies to get information back to the Horde without actually leaving Brightmoon, but there have to be easier ways to communicate- those tablets, for one.

There are plenty of valid reasons to be suspicious of Shadow Weaver- her loyalty is 100% only to herself and she absolutely would betray them if she thought it would be advantageous to her. But the shadow spies thing specifically just doesn’t hold up. Of all the things she could have said, why this?

#spop adora #shadow weaver #she ra and the princesses of power #spop season 4 #mer-mysteries #i mean i guess it could be that adora just doesn't know how shadow weaver's magic works #but you'd think she'd at least pick up on the 'shadow weaver is in a weakened state' #considering shadow weaver showed up at brightmoon on death's door to get adora to heal her

[aprillikesthings]

I lead part of EfM thing today (see earlier posts) and it went well ahhhhh thank God

and I've made my lunches for the next week!

and I'm munching on a salad

and all day I was looking forward to this, the moment I can (re)watch MORE SHE-RA

I've barely worked on my longer fic this weekend (other than copy/pasting a bunch of things Nate said after the show ended into the notes section of the doc) and tbh rewatching the ACTUAL SHOW is hella distracting bc with twenty eps left we're going to start getting into more of the really high-stakes stuff

Also, true story: I originally watched, like, the second half of season 4 and all of season 5 in two days of marathoning with Daci. So quite frankly? The last, like, third of the show is just kind of a blur to me now.

SO LET'S GO

s4 ep7 Mer-Mysteries

A mission in Dryl went badly, they've figured out someone's telling the Horde what they're doing, they're not tracking Adora because she wasn't even there--

YES

plz enjoy Sea Hawk's faces

Bow's sudden nervousness reminds me of when I was in line at the TSA in Dulles airport and was weirdly nervous. I had no reason to be nervous. AND YET. I'm usually totally fine at TSA? But the people at Dulles were scary!!!

(I was way less nervous coming back from Iceland, despite knowing I had Kinder Surprise Eggs in my suitcase. Which are actually illegal to bring into the USA. You can buy "Kinder Joy Eggs" in the USA, which do not have the toy, but the ones with the toys are against the law! Anyway I bought them for Daci. I was only nervous for a split second at customs in the USA bc they asked me what I'd brought home from Iceland and I was like...wool yarn. books. sweets (I'd also bought licorice and chocolate). But he just waved me through. WHEW.)

she's still big mad about this lolol

BUT she's right a spy IS the only thing that makes sense (but also the audience knows shit they don't)

Pearl?? A Pearl who knows too much?????

c'mon I had to

lolol they lampshaded the way lightning keeps striking when Mermista says something

to be fair she IS the most recent addition and the one they know the least

oh hey I also write everything in purple (or lavender) ink

lol

oh, shut up

well not this episode, specifically

LOLLLLL

honestly this is a lot like the DnD episode

so on the one hand, I know Flutterina is doing this to make them fight, but on the other hand Glimmer is right; on the other OTHER hand, I also would prefer a warning before being forced to see my abusive parent having free range of the castle I live in

BAHAHAHA I read Nate saying these two were interrupted on a date night, but also plz notice the colors of the flowers, it's literally most of the lesbian pride flag, they were SO unsubtle

The Ken from Plumeria is talking to the pastry chef from Dryl with the super cute outfit, and she looks bashful for a second after this screenshot; I am now shipping this and no one can stop me

speaking of ships (yes I know this isn't meant to be shippy lol)

a youtube video titled "it's raining on your window and you live in Bright Moon Castle ASMR for sleep 4 hours"

(....I'd listen to that)

(On a related note, mynoise dot net has a bunch of rain sounds on the website, and it also has an app--it's seriously the BEST website/app for ambient sounds because they're so adjustable and never repeat, and I just want everyone to know about them. The rain and ocean sounds are great on earbuds to cover up snoring so you can sleep!!! Worked better than my fancy earplugs while I was on the Camino and sleeping in all those hostels)

And back to the cartoon, where there's obviously suspicious shit happening because people seem to be in two places at once and their communications thing got shattered

oh so her name IS just The General

Flutterina (aka Double Trouble) has got to be like "oh my god wtf is up with this dude I cannot handle this bullshit"

Once again Glimmer proves that her and Catra are actually very, very alike

BUSTED

OOHHHHH they set up a trap I forgot, this is amazing

Adora: "we created a diversion :)" Glimmer: "You were a really good actress. For once."

pfft

Anyway Double Trouble is confessing the whole plan

:(

poor Mermista :(

there's a creepy-ass moment of seeing part of Horde Prime's face as he smiles, roll credits

so like i'm a person that does not assume that people like me. in fact, i actively assume that my presence is obtrusive and undesirable and honestly annoying. i'm an insufferable know-it-all, i'm pretentious, i'm elitist, i'm blunt, i don't pick up on social cues, i'm strong in my moral convictions and they do Not align with the law, i do not expect people to like me. so the fact that i'm noticeably generally well-liked at my college right now is insane. like genuinely insane to me. i make a great first impression but i typically do not hold on to that amnesty well. we're two and a half months into the semester and people are still enjoying hearing me talk. that's crazy

#i'm unfailingly polite to service staff members so i get why the janitorial staff and the cafe staff like me but everyone else? #complete and total mystery to me. i talk about my diagnoses too publicly and i'm open about the minority groups that i'm in #and how that changes my perspective as compared to the typical of the in-group. i make people think about their prejudices in a civil #debating manner most of the time. i just do not assume that people enjoy that kind of engagement the way that i might #anyway i'm having a weird time being liked worst vent-ish post of all time #guy with ptsd can't stop waiting for the other shoe to drop. water reportedly wet #mer rambles #low self esteem cw

i should be in bed but i cant stop thinking about an old headcanon of mine about voryn and araynys having a different mother than their other siblings, a mother that isn't a mortal........... (brace urself) she's a fire elemental daedra with a fascination for the mortal world .. she came to nirn disguised as a mer and fell in love with both the world and voryn's father, and although she knew someone like her can't create life, she did anyway. and that's how our very warm blooded voryn appeared :') their mother couldn't stay tethered to nirn for long so she would only visit for short periods of time ...until eventually she couldn't visit at all anymore. the last time she saw voryn, when araynys was too young to even remember her, she told voryn that she will always love them no matter what...i think that deep down inside, she knew that nothing good could come out of the love between her and a mortal, and that fate would twist her beautiful children .... i dont think either voryn or their father ever rly knew the true nature of voryn's mother, they just know that she has "died", despite not having left any remains behind......... they still thought of her often though :')

anyway so this is why voryn can't handle any temperature below 30°C and why they're always too warm to the touch. girlie's mom was a fireball

#here i come with the most random hcs u can imagine #no idk how lore accurate this is and idc ! i make my own rules 💅 #oh mystery mother concepts how i love u #txt #also now both voryn and nerevar match . neither of them has Normal Mer parents #nerevar is made of the stars and skies and voryn is made of 🔥 and magic #obsessed...i am obsessed

My Inane SPOP Musings #329:

So... how are murder mysteries (like Mer-Mysteries) a thing, on a planet that has access to truth spells? E.g.:

Lord Diddlesworth: I was nowhere near Marlenna's bedroom at the time of the murder!

Sorcerer: Zappity-Zap

Lord Diddlesworth: Oh fuck it, I killed her.

[deliciouspirateangel]

just watched the first three eps of the new pll series so ima talk about it. spoilers below, like it’s that serious

i never watched pll and basically hated it out of spite when it was airing

which is fine bc this show has nothing to do with the original and honestly shouldnt even be connected to the pll name

it’s really like we can’t have a single new idea without arbitrarily linking it to something old

feels a lot closer to season one of the scream series

the mysterious texts from A absolutely do not mesh with the serial killer walking around in the leatherface mask 

it feels like there’s so many girls. they could’ve cut one girl. the twins and a main four would be plenty 

i hate parents in these shows so muuuuch “why would you put razor blades in a girl’s shoe” “why would you put a dead rat in a girl’s backpack” you really think your daughter did that?? really???

werewolf girl from zombies is here and she’s my fave but also my least fave. the movie buff whose main character trait is naming titles of movies. it’s so basic lol make an actual reference or say a quote from something or something damn

but speaking of werewolves she rolled up to the dance looking like sweet 1600 clawdeen like it all comes full circle

oh also speaking of monster high i swear the two moms girl had monster high characters on her bedroom wall lmao but i couldnt get a good enough look rip but its either them or just wishful thinking

not to victim blame but WHY was tabby drinking wine at that guy’s house??? she knew he was a creep and she was in a bad situation and yet just guzzles down a glass of wine no problem. also what happened to her afterwards?? she just walks out and it cuts to the next day like. guess she’s fine.

the twist is obviously going to be that kelly died and karen is alive. literally no show in the history of television has had twins where one dies and it’s actually who they say it is. there’s always a switcheroo. that’s fucking twin mysteries 101

i know what you did last summer series also

this is probably bad for the rest of the show but my favorite part is the set decoration lmao. like all the houses looked lived in, as opposed to staged for a viewing for potential buyers. that doesn’t get enough credit in shows but it stood out to me for this oneee 

also every house has pretty wallpaper. love wallpaper so much <3 

anyway in conclusion the show obviously isn’t good but it’s something to watch. murder mysteries are kind of always fun to watch no matter the quality. im thinking it wont be as good as the scream series but hoping it’ll be better than the ikwydls series. if it’s worse than that, that’ll be a feat

#pretty little liars: original sin #original sin #pretty little liars #my thoughts #oh and also a little cru/el sum/mer vibes even tho that one wasnt a murder mystery #or it kind of was #but not really idk #id still lump all those shows together

Meredith Grey will die in the season premier

And this post confirms it for me. Meredith looming over everyone. The old cast members all in black, while the new kids are in intern scrubs.

This feels like a memorial

#Ellen’s been very vocal about wanting to leave #they’re bringing in these new interns #and packaging it as a reboot #the cast has all been very criptic and mysterious in describing the season #but that’s per usual #cat calling it shocking sticks out #because lbr greys hasn’t been shocking for a couple years #and you know what #if they actually do it #if they actually kill Meredith #I’d have so much respect for the writers for pulling it off #pull us in looking like mer is running the program #then boom gone #amazing #grey’s anatomy #just something that’s been running my brain #Meredith Grey
