Blog intro! That I'm finally getting around to after several years lol.
Hi there! I’m Peggy, Sky Floor, Floor, Skyward, or Peg if you like.
Basically any variation of my username is fine.
I'm a Christian gal, muddling my way through life 👍
This is my Legend of Zelda/Linkeduniverse blog, the home of all my Zelda stuff I reblog and create. I’m a writer and random theory person mostly, but I also draw and reblog a lot of stuff, talk about the loz games, and bust out various insane AUs every so often. I also never shut up. sorry.
Writing tag is #writing from the floor
Talk tag is #rambles from the floor
And my ao3, Skyward_Arpeggio
I also make an effort to tag everything for easy organization and proper warnings, but I can't catch everything. I do my best though. Also no political discussions or NSFW, please. I try to keep this a lighthearted space, so please respect that.
I'm always willing to talk Zelda/Lu, and have an unhealthy amount of lore memorized, so don't be afraid to shoot me an ask if you wanna chat :D
Some of my projects and AUs I'm working on:
Linked Universe Incredibles AU, a semi-modern superhero au, where I basically dumped the lu boys into the Incredibles movie(s). If you're looking for family stuff, superpowers, and way too much angst, this is the au for you. You can find the masterpost of everything here, or look for it under the tag: #incredibles au, and all the writing I've done for it under: #incredibles au fic. (also on ao3!)
Sundelion AU is a totk au where Link and Zelda are married pre-totk, and there are two dragons around the sky islands when Link wakes up. What's going on? Link doesn't know. Link to the fic.
Brethren in a Cradle, my longest-running and most intense plot-wise project (with the very slow updates 😭). The chain gain an unusual addition to their ranks, and somehow Wild is a dad now. Wait, all of them are. Oops. Link to the fic on tumblr, but it's also on ao3.
Hyrule Dragon Warriors, which is a hyrule warriors au in which Link's dad is Volga, and his mom is Impa. Yeah. Family drama. You can find the masterpost of fics here, or look under: #hdw au. (also on ao3!)
I have four original Zelda stories I'm working on, one that I just call Lost AU, one Swamp Link, one Hero of Sages, or Berry Link, and the latest, the Mom Zelda AU.
Lost is about a Link who's corrupted very early in the story, and Zelda sets out to save him and the kingdom. You can find the masterpost of fics here, or under the tag #Lost.
Hero of Sages is about a Link who has six older sisters... who happen to be six of the seven maidens needed to bring back Ganon. There's also some messy political issues going on with the queen, Zelda, and Zelda's older brother. You can find it under #hero of sages.
Swamp Link is about a Link who was raised by Zora in a swamp. Think Florida man, but LOZ. Most of his Hyrule is wetland, lots of Zora around, and there's also a cult. Very exciting. His fic masterlist is here, and you can also look for him under #Swamp Link.
Mom Zelda is about a Link who is the son of Zelda, who's somewhat on the run after Ganondorf takes over the kingdom. There's not a lot to this one yet, but you can find it under #mom zelda au. (masterlist here)
You can also find my own all the links from the games go on an adventure together au at the tag: #Courage of Ages. There isn't a whole lot posted on here about them, but I always love talking about my boys :)
I have much more than this though, AUs/projects and other stuff I’ve written, but I'm going to put it under the cut (...still under editing so it's messy and unfinished!)
The past five years I've participated in the whumptober challenge! I did half of 2021's for lu, and in 2022 and 2023 I did all 31 days for lu! You can find the list for 2021 here, the ones for 2022 here, the 2023 ones here, the ones for 2024 here and the ones for 2025 here (or find them all on my ao3 (see above), as well as some ao3-only bonus scenes!).
Kitty Wind, which is exactly what it sounds like. Wind touches Twilight's crystal, and finds himself as... a cat. A tiny, fluffy, adorable little cat. Needless to say, he isn't thrilled. You can find it under #kitty wind or read the fic on ao3!
LU Star Wars AU is also exactly what it sounds like, it's just a star wars au with the lu boys (and other zelda characters yaaaay). Not a lot yet, but three chapters are out so far (on tumblr and ao3).
A Royal Castletown Wedding is basically just me borrowing the my little pony wedding episode and turning into a goofy lu fic. Nearly finished!
Accidental Domestication, silly stories about the chain and wolves and them being Disney princesses, basically.
Scales and Gills, a collection of Mermaid Legend fics.
The Twilight Turns (true form au), which is a fic in which Midna returns to her true form much sooner than in canon. She and Link's relationship changes a good bit because of this. On ao3.
Pup is only two fics for now, but I have more planned for this idea! Dark Link goes back in time, and after the chain when they're too small to defend themselves. Unfortunately for Dink, he doesn't bet on them having protectors in the form of their predecessors.
Many Courses of Love which is a series of loz fics exploring the different Links and how they're loved (mainly zelink, but a few other ships, as well as familial love too :)
Up in Arms, a hyrule warriors fic in which Link loses an arm in the fight against the Dark Links.
Botw Dark Link AU, an AU I don't talk about much, but post-botw the Yiga decide to make a Dark Link in order to defeat Link himself once and for all. They, of course, screw it up.
Downfall IAU is just the incredibles AU only angstier. Much, much angstier. Here's the big ol' masterlist.
I may be forgetting some things, but these are all my main projects I believe!

But also last night I must’ve bumped a scab or something because I woke up with blood all over the side of my mouth and pillow shdbdhdgdhdgs

I can’t decide so I’ll ask you all, what fic-au/thingie should I work on? Got the next sundelion chapter pretty much done, and i was working a bit on that other IAU febuwhump thing, but I think I need a break from those. So what should it be?

This is one of the febuwhump ideas I had that I half wrote out because I had trouble deciding which idea to go with, and has been sitting around ever since. More suffering for Incredibles au Warriors oop. It’s a little messy, but it’s an extra fic and I didn’t feel like spending ages on it, heh. There’s also a second extra fic that’s a similar idea that I’ll post at some point, but it needs way more help to make it legible for reading lol.
This is set a few months before Time and Malon get married.
Warnings: a few injuries, referenced medical torture (sort of?), hypothermia (ish), a smidge of violence
————————————————————
If one more armored guard got in his way, Time was going to forget the doors and start ramming his way through walls.
He snarled as he threw the latest grouping of strange icy soldiers back, slamming them against the floor and making them shatter into chunks of pale blue. Most of the human guards had fled, but a few remained, and Time did try and go somewhat easier on them, but he was angry enough that he wasn’t too gentle.
Anyone who kidnapped his brother deserved it.
“There,” Malon breathed beside him, and they bolted for the security room, Time wrenching the doorknob off to bypass the lock entirely.
The chair inside was empty, a spilled cup of coffee spreading slowly across the floor. Whatever guard had been in here was long gone, and Malon hurried forward towards the grainy feeds as Time guarded the doorway.
More icy guards ran towards him, and Time dodged the spears they threw, then raced forward, kicking their feet out and grabbing one and slamming it into another. He kept the enemies out of the room while Malon worked, and he’d soon cleared the hallway again.
“Oh no,” Malon suddenly breathed, and Time sprinted over to her, sucking in a breath as he looked through the security monitor she was pointing to.
Warriors lay in a wide circular room, curled into a ball with his scarf thrown over his head. The picture was grainy enough that it was difficult to make out much more, but Time could see the ice coating the floor and walls, the frost feathered on his brother’s clothing.
And he wasn’t moving. At all.
“Where is he?” Time asked sharply, and Malon frowned.
“I’m looking, computers aren’t my strong suit,” she said as she pressed a few buttons. “I think he... there! He’s in the basement!”
The two of them abandoned the computers and took off, both swiftly taking out any resistance. They’d already taken out the villain who’d kidnapped Warriors in the first place, but his strange icy guards were still all over the old cold storage building. Progress was frustratingly slow, and Time felt his anger rise with every piece of ice he shattered.
Warriors has sent out a distress signal that morning, and it was nearly dark now. Normally he would have been with Sky, but Sky had been invited along on a trip with Sun and her father, and Warriors had insisted he could handle a few solo missions.
And he had handled several of them. Excellently. Which Time would gladly admit he was proud of, but whatever had happened this morning must have been too much for him to handle.
Hence the distress signal. Then absolute radio silence.
Time kicked in another door as Malon shot off some of her blunted arrows, the weight shattering whatever ice they hit. The icy soldiers pulled back warily, but Time and Malon were already moving again, descending the rickety stairs that led to their goal.
The basement was much cooler than upstairs, and Malon gave a small shiver. Time probably did too, but he was too busy checking every door there was down here to notice.
Malon went to the other side of the hall, and they both worked their way around, Time’s heart in his throat. If they were too late...
Ice guards poured down the stairs, and Time snarled and rushed them, buying Malon time to keep checking doors. He smashed one with a single punch, his blood singing as he fought, and he whirled through the crowd like a windstorm hitting a pile of leaves.
“Fierce— Fierce I found him!” Malon suddenly shouted as she looked through a window placed in one of the doors, and Time’s heart jumped.
“Go, I’ll finish here!” he called back, and Malon broke open the door while Time finished destroying the ice soldiers.
One lunged for him, and Time spun around and kicked it into the wall, making it shatter. Ice scattered across the floor as he threw another soldier into two others, and the remaining group swarmed him.
Unfortunately for them, they failed.
Time punched and kicked and threw the soldiers away from himself, and only moments later, the hall was empty.
Time then ran for the room where Malon had gone, feeling the temperature go down again as he passed through the door. Malon knelt in the middle of the room, and Time’s heart gave a jolt when he saw Warriors lying in her arms.
He half rested in her lap, Malon having tugged one of his gloves off to feel his pulse, and Time slid to his knees beside them with his heart in his throat.
“Malanya is he—”
“I got a pulse,” she assured, quickly squeezing his hand. “It’s... really slow though Fierce, and he’s so cold, I don’t know...”
She trailed off, and Time moved to pull Warriors’ scarf from his face. He had to practically peel it away from his head it was so cold, solid and immovable, but Time managed somehow. Frost curled over Warriors’ skin, ice thick on his clothes, and Time looked at him in alarm as he cracked his eyes open.
His eyes were the wrong shade of blue.
“T-Time?” Warriors whispered, and he nodded, quickly taking his brother from Malon.
“It’s me. Are you okay?” he asked, hissing as he touched Warriors’ cheek. It was so cold it hurt even through his gloves. “What happened?”
Warriors blinked a few times, eyes glazed. “D-dunno. Kept getting colder. Tests, or... s-something. I’m cold.”
A harsh shiver wracked through him, and Time held him closer, trying to impart some body heat. Malon leaned in as well, though she kept her bow out and ready, and Time exhaled.
“We need to warm you up,” he murmured, and Warriors‘ eyes slipped closed again.
“Slowly,” Malon added, looking closer at Warriors in alarm. “It looks like his skin might’ve actually frozen, we’ll need to be careful.”
Time swallowed. A normal person would probably already be dead from that.
“We will,” Time said tightly, and adjusted his grip on Warriors so he could stand up with him. “We’ll be careful. Not too fast. And if it seems like it’s hurting him, we’ll... figure out something else.”
Warriors softly groaned, and ice suddenly spurted out of his hands, partially freezing Time’s leg. Time startled, quickly pulling his leg out, then stood up before Warriors could shoot more. Ice started spreading from him onto Time’s shoulder anyway, and Malon took the lead as they hurried out.
Another shiver wracked through Warriors, and Time shook more ice off his arm. Usually Warriors had much better control than this.
“Cryonis, can you tell us anything else about what happened?” Time asked as they rushed back through the hallways he and Malon had run through previously. “...Wars?”
“Mm?” Warriors slurred, gaze distant as it landed on Time.
“Do you know what they did to you?” Time repeated, and Warriors set his head against Time’s chest.
“D-dunno. Cold,” he whispered. “N-n-needles. Can’t r-rem-member.”
“That’s okay. Try to remember more if you can,” Time said, ducking down behind a wall as Malon shot at some ice soldiers who’d appeared out of nowhere. “Just hold on a bit longer, Wars. We’re nearly out.”
Warriors made a pained noise, and Malon finished taking out the soldiers, her face tense. They kept running, and Time was certain Warriors grew colder in his arms, more ice feathering from his fingers to freeze Time’s suit. Another harsh shiver wracked through him at one point, and Malon nearly got her face frozen from the blast of ice that accompanied it.
But they kept on going. Up flights of stairs, down multiple halls, past melting ice and soldiers that still stubbornly fought on...
And finally they burst outside into the cool evening air.
It was still warmer than inside the building though, and Warriors relaxed slightly as they headed down to where Time had left his car. The police were already here, red and blue lights flashing off walls and puddles from the recent rain, and Malon took point again, talking quickly to a few officers that came forward. She shooed him forward, and Time knew she had it handled, quickly heading for his car.
“Open back door left side please, EPONA,” he ordered, and the car automatically opened for him. “And start running the heat. Low level.”
Time pressed a button that folded the seats in the back down, and he slid himself and Warriors into the car, setting his brother down on the flat area that was now there.
Warriors looked a little less pale, but his skin was still far too cold and hard, and whenever his eyes opened they reflected the light strangely. Time closed the door behind them, and began checking his extremities and other vitals, worried about frostbite. Could Warriors get frostbite?
What even was wrong with him, exactly? It seemed like he was too cold, but Warriors was always cold anyway. How could he fix this? What should he do?
“Time?” Warriors said softly, and Time looked over at his face. His brother seemed a little more awake now, and his expression was ashamed. “S-Sorry I... f-failed t-to...”
He shivered, and Time set a hand on his head.
“Hey. We all get in situations that are over our heads sometimes,” he said, teasing some melting ice from his hair. “You’ll be all right. Focus on warming up. We can discuss the mission when you’re better.”
Warriors nodded, and closed his eyes again as a few knocks came from the door. Time opened it, letting Malon in, and she squeezed herself in beside him as she closed the door behind her.
“How is he?” she asked as Time pulled out a blanket, and she helped him wrap it around Warriors.
“Cold. I think... I think he’ll be okay,” Time said quietly, feeling Warriors’ cheek again. It still felt hard. “I don’t know what they did to him though. Or what to do to really help him. Until he can tell us more, we’ll need to watch him.”
“We will. I’m just glad that aside from the temperature thing he doesn’t seem too badly hurt,” Malon sighed, and rubbed her forehead. “The police are mopping up. They might be able to tell us more once they go over the place.”
“Maybe.”
Time exhaled, suddenly exhausted from the stress of the day, and Malon squeezed his hand.
“He already seems less pale,” she said softly, and ran her hand over Warriors’ forehead. “And... less icy. In a good way, I mean. More like his normal iciness.”
“I agree. I just wish we knew what exactly happened to him,” Time replied, worry churning in his stomach. “If he... if anything...”
He couldn’t finish the thought, and his fiancée put her arm around him.
“We’ll figure it out,” she reassured, and didn’t say anything more.
Time gave her a small nod, and turned the heat up a little more, watching as Warriors curled into a ball, beginning to shiver more regularly. Time moved so he was sitting beside him, adding additional warmth, and Malon sat by him as well, both of them watching carefully as he warmed up.
“Th-thanks,” Warriors shivered out after several minutes, eyes bleary. “For c-c-coming for m-me.”
“I’d never leave you someplace like that,” Time said quietly, and Warriors exhaled, and seemed to relax more.
“I kn-know. Thanks an-n-nyway.”
Time patted his shoulder, unable to articulate the relief and worry and several other emotions in his chest, and leaned against Malon as they kept an eye on his little brother.
