Give That Boy a Nap by rune_cat

Summary
Link breaks out of the crystal prison swinging - he’s ready to take on Null! But is he really ready? Zelda certainly doesn’t think so. She insists that he have a smoothie, some wound care, and a nap before he collapses. A week alone and unarmed in the rifts has taken its toll, after all.
EoW spoilers are pretty minor, but read at your own risk!

Summary
After fighting off a perplexing Yiga attack on the way to Kakariko Village, Link falls extremely ill. Suspecting he’s been poisoned, Zelda rushes to get him help, but as she and her Sheikah friends begin to tend to him, something strange starts to happen: every time Link wakes, it almost seems as if he’s a different person. Is it just delirium brought on by pain and fever? Or is it… something else?
This story does have a planned ending, but number of chapters is TBD! No specific update schedule rn but I’m still actively working on this as of 8/20/24 :)

Summary
Today is your first day of work at Hyrule Fields Assisted Living Home, and its director, Hyrule himself, is leading you through orientation. As you tour the place and meet the residents (who are, oddly, mostly named Link), you get the idea that this is far, far from your average assisted living facility. It's only day one, and you're already seeing weirder things than you could have ever imagined!
Or, the hilarious "Linked Universe old folks home AU" that originated from a cursed late-night discussion on the Linked Universe Discord Server. What have I done.

Summary
Wind is a bit self-conscious about his status as the youngest member of the group. But as time goes on, he learns just how much his new brothers love him and would do anything for him, and he wholeheartedly reciprocates as he settles into his role.
Or, 3 times a member of the Chain were there for Wind and 1 time he stepped up for one of them.

Summary
Hyrule has a secret. A secret from everyone he knows, from his brothers in the Chain. There is a curse on his blood, a curse that calls to monsters and wants to resurrect the King of Evil. A curse that can render Hyrule completely useless.
He keeps it a secret. He doesn't tell anyone. He has a medicine and can keep his curse at bay.
It won't become an issue. He can fight it back. He just needs to keep going, and everything will be alright.
Won't it?

Summary
Every single muscle in Link’s body screamed with effort, weeks of starvation leaving him weaker than he’d like to admit. Still, he didn’t have a choice– so he kept running.
—
“It’s him,” Sky murmured, Fi glowing on his back. “The new Link.”
Time, Twilight, Sky, and Legend travel through a portal only to find themselves in a cave tasting of magic. With their slowly growing group, this can only mean one thing– a new Link.
[prequel to A House of Cards About to Fall. can be read as a standalone fic]

Summary
"Say goodbye, little hero," said the blademaster mockingly.
Legend's eyelids fluttered as he choked on another gout of blood.
That was the last thing Wild saw before a puff of white smoke, a flurry of scraps of red paper, and a sickening wrenching feeling as the Yiga teleported him away.---
When a Yiga clan ambush leaves Legend seriously wounded and Wild missing, the Chain sets out on a desperate quest to rescue their lost member before it's too late.

Summary
Wild heard his name being called, hurried commands being thrown around in the background, but the fog was too tempting and it was too hard to pull away. He felt his mind slipping, his grip on the ice doing the same. Icy water climbed up his torso, along his neck, past his chin.
A cacophony of panicked shouts and one terrified, “Cub!!” later, and he felt the water and fog swallow him whole.
