    Summary

    "The cold, white gaze of Mary's walls greets me first. All the lifetimes of things that I witnessed, went through, was complicit in have never stopped weighing on me, and now, sick and bed-bound, I have no other choice than to let myself think about it. No excuses of saving Earth, no desperate rescue mission for Rocky before only a corpse was left of his brilliance, no more trying to fend off the looming risk of malnourishment. There's nothing else but to sit with it. And I don't know what I'm meant to do with it all. I really don't know."

    -

    Ryland Grace is a slowly dying man, carrying the unbelievable trauma and guilt of having to be forced onto a suicide mission for the sake of humanity. He cannot hold onto this alone, not forever. But what on earth would Rocky, the one who he loves above all, think of him if he learns the truth? That he is not the selfless man who gave up his life to save his home that they both thought he was?

    Summary

    Link is avoiding the Domain.

    That is Yona’s theory, at least - because she can’t necessarily prove he is avoiding the Domain. After all, he is the Hero of Hyrule. The Champion of Champions. And those titles certainly don’t come with much free time, especially after the Upheaval and the disappearance of Princess Zelda. So, the most logical conclusion is assuming the small Hylian just doesn’t have time for galavanting.

    Only speculation, the whispers of others, and the ponderings of Sidon himself have led her to believe he might be evading visiting.

    Summary

    Leo is retreating further and further into this new character that doesn’t care about himself or anybody else, and it’s happening right before Donnie’s eyes. He’s already slinking away, out of the warmth and light of the kitchen, away from his family.

    Donnie realizes abruptly that there is a non-zero chance he might lose his twin brother. That one day he might wake up and not know Leo anymore.

    Summary

    They seem to chew on the question for a moment, though Elliott couldn’t fathom why.

    Eventually, they speak. “My name - is…”

    (--a gurgle of a geyser starting underfoot, a low rumble of earth and rock, a flock of birds taking off, their wings hammering the air--)

    Elliott blinks. “‘Bloodhound’? Did I get that right?”

    ___

    (All Elliott wants to do is some sad drinking. Then, he meets a human(?) in the woods.)

    Summary

    “What was that?”

     

    “Fyrirgefðu mér. I am sorry.”

     

    “Oh. Don’t worry about it,” Elliott replies. “I’ve had worse. Much worse. In fact, this is the most boring la- lacer... injury I’ve ever had! Super easy to deal with, and-”

     

    “Elliott, please,” Bloodhound says firmly. “You are allowed to feel the pain you bear.”
    ---

    Mirage doesn't really think any Legend really, definitely cares about him for him. Not for his skills or his assets for a team- him specifically. But Bloodhound... Bloodhound is different.

    And that confuses the hell out of him.
