Summary
In a stolen moment of calm amid his escape attempts, Zagreus seeks relief of a more personal nature in the seclusion of Patroclus' glade. Unfortunately, he's caught in his private indulgence by Patroclus himself. Far from being upset, Patroclus invites the prince to stay a little while.
Things are just starting to get interesting when Achilles stumbles onto the scene. After a moment of wide-eyed surprise, Achilles' shock quickly turns into interest. Tangled up with these two eager mentors, Zagreus discovers that losing himself in the rhythm of shared pleasure is the perfect way to forget his troubles, even if only for a little while. Turns out, there's nothing quite like the attentions of two devoted comrades to help a guy blow off some steam.Bookmarked by Ready_Player_Two

Summary
One day on the surface Zagreus receives his first ever prayer from a mortal, requesting his aid in the form of a boon.
The problem is, Zagreus has no idea how to answer it, and even worse, he can only hear the prayer while he is on the surface where his body is actively dying by the second.
Unable to think of anything better to do, he throws his body at the problem over and over, until one day he becomes desperate enough to defy death in the Overworld. This starts to cause problems for Thanatos’ work-life balance.
When Zagreus and Thanatos' divine natures come into conflictSeries

Summary
In the chaotic years after Steve Rogers arrives back in 2023 as an old man, he helps rebuild the world, falls in love with his best friend, adopts a stray cat, and saves the entire timeline. Not necessarily in that order.
—
“Now you’re slow enough for me to catch you the next time you try to do something stupid.” Bucky leans close and jostles their arms together. “That’s the best part.”
Steve presses a wrinkled hand to his chest. “I’ve matured, James Barnes. I would never do something stupid.”
Bucky rolls his eyes and drops an arm over Steve’s stooped shoulders. “Yeah, you’re still a punk, old man.”

Bookmarker's Notes
There’s something about this fic, this canon continuance. I never thought I’d be interested in any exploration of a canon that hurt like hell, one that I watched in theatres and realized, “oh my god, they were so scared of even the possibility of Steve and Bucky looking like lovers that they threw the whole friendship out with the bath water. What happened to ‘Til the end of the line’???” Why interact with a story that feels like betrayal whenever I think of it?
Well, this one helps you through it. And you get a new perspective on who these characters are and what they needed, and that maybe they really weren’t ready yet. Maybe those boys couldn’t be what the other needed until one learned how to cool the raging forest fire of his heart (and the other learned how to love himself enough to both protect himself from the flames and to…be the fireweed that grows right after forest fires on the west coast? idk, this metaphor got away from me).
Either way, this is important to save, future me. It made you cry. And that’s ok.Now go eat dinner, ok? You had a good lunch, but you need to eat more than once!

Steve and Bucky always find their way back to each other. (Goats might be involved. And spicy fish stew. And memories of their previous lives as a couple of boys from Brooklyn.)
Written for Captain America Reverse Big Bang 2019 (with art by gyrhs). Sort of a sequel to Redemption Interlude but stands on its own.

I miss these boys. I wish things had gone differently. I wish Chadwick Boseman was still here. I wish the MCU wasn’t afraid of men loving each other, platonically or otherwise. Little birdie, I miss you, but I read this, and it feels like I can feel you flutter around my face. Thank you, both for being there for me, and trusting me enough to let me go

Summary
She is a proud warrior of the desert and the chieftain’s daughter to boot. Dohna often feels the weight of the world upon her shoulders, but now that world is being stolen away by mysterious rifts. Eager to help her people, she has vowed to travel the dangerous roads and the sandblasted wastelands, seeking a means of rescuing those who have been lost.
Dohna will not travel this path alone, however, for an intriguing princess has offered to join her in this quest. She may have only met Zelda a few days ago, but the young captain finds herself drawn to this beautiful Hylian woman in ways she cannot explain. Perhaps Zelda does hold the key to sealing the rifts, or perhaps she holds the key to something far more precious—the heart of a Gerudo warrior.

Summary
Being sent to the Rito in the dead of winter is a punishment. Link is ostensibly relieving the longtime Hylian military attaché, so this could be construed a promotion—but for the timing.
Another birthday has come and gone, and still he has not presented. And even though everyone expects him to be appointed the Princess’s knight, one thing is for sure—the King will never select anyone but an alpha. And he certainly won’t trust his only child with someone who hasn’t even presented yet. Maybe it would be different if Link had the sword that seals the darkness, but he doesn’t.

Summary
A hundred years have passed since the Calamity and not only has the dark beast Ganon finally been sealed, but the four Champions of old were rebuilt by the very Divine Beasts they piloted, given the chance to start a new life here in the peaceful future world.
Decommissioned from their duties, the Beasts now lie dormant in their domains, and Hyrule's Champions have begun to adjust to life anew. Even Revali has found a place for himself, dispite a few bumps in the road along the way.
But suddenly storms rise and plagues fall, Link drops from the sky with a missing arm, the Princess is behaving strangely, and Hyrule Castle starts to float in the sky...
The war is over. Isn't it?

Summary
They have broken fate into something better: the Calamity is sealed, the Champions live, Hyrule will rebuild. Yet the death of the king and much of the Hylian court unsettles the balance of power, and while Zelda recovers from the Calamity, the army moves to seize control.
Worse, the Calamity is not the only piece of history lodged in the bedrock of Hyrule. Deep under the ground, other histories await. Some start to seep up.
Link is not yet rid of fate – but nor is he alone in facing it.

“And the other two Champions, and therefore your companions for this Pilgrimage, will be Master Revali for the Rito and Prince Sidon for the Zora!”
Zelda’s face was blinding. Her eyes were bright, lips stretched into the biggest grin, arms spread wide as if she was announcing the main act on stage, and Link could have sworn there was a faint ta-da playing in the background. She clearly thought this was the best thing he’d ever heard in his entire life.
It was the worst. Thing he’d ever heard in his entire life, that was.
Link is sent on a year-long journey across Hyrule with his two best friends. ‘Friends’ he may have kissed on one occasion or another.

Summary
A hundred years after the fall of Hyrule to Calamity Ganon, and the hero Link has finally sealed the darkness and freed the Divine Beasts of their curse - and with it, their pilots are finally free. But not just as spirits.
Awake once again, the four Champions of old have a second chance at life and must re-adjust to this future world with their decendants.
Well - all except for one Champion, who doesn't have a decentant. Or even anyone left alive that knew him.Teba is happy to take in his revived ancient idol as one of his own, but sharing a living space with a hundred year old Champion with an ego the size of his divine beast and who might have some issues he's not willing to share can be a lot sometimes and they don't always see eye to eye.
Revali thinks he should return to leading the new generation of Rito warriors. Teba thinks this actual child should never have been leading warriors or fighting a war in the first place.
Tulin is just excited to have the infamous Rito Champion in his house.

Summary
The fight is over... or is it? Link struggles to settle back into his post after the Calamity. How does he find his own happiness shackled to a responsibility that he no longer wants? Zelda watches the changes in her knight... and offers a solution.
He despised this damn stuffy tunic. He heaves what will probably be his last sigh for the day. Having to fall back into his old post after being able to freely express himself in the wild is going to be a test of his skills. He didn’t have much practice with decorum. Especially the protocols he is sure Zelda will be expecting. He had ensured that the leaders and chiefs of the nation understood him, remaining quiet yet cordial. Mostly defaulting to writing or Zora hand speak. At this point very few citizens of Hyrule knew of his voice, seldom used most days.
Story begins just after BOTW and carries onto after TOTK.

Rose was a little afraid of Frodo. She loved him, of course, because her Sam did and because he was kind and good and because she had cared for him when he was at his weakest. But she was afraid of him; because he was so far away from what she understood, and because he held her love’s heart. Because sometimes his eyes seemed to look at things that were not there.
Because one day he would leave and take part of Sam with him.Series

Summary
Sidon approached Link, and all Link could focus on was the new collar the man was sporting. It was significantly larger than the one he was accustomed to and more ornate. It was a symbol of his engagement. His blue eyes drifted up away from Sidon's neck to his face. The shock melted from it and Sidon's arms abruptly shot up into the air.
"It's good to see you, my friend!"
No matter how long they'd been together, Sidon had continued to refer to him as "my friend". He had admittedly begun using "friend" and "love" interchangeably, but the term had never previously left Link feeling anything other than cherished.
When Link didn't say anything in response, Sidon's expression shifted again, concern washing across his face. "Link, is something wrong? Are you alright? What happened?"
'Yona told me you would be here.'
