Sky:

It wasn’t shocking that Sky was the sleepiest of the chain. Honestly it was a miracle he was standing right now. There wasn’t an issue with that. We were taking a break. You also knew he was doing his best.

“Hey… Sky…” You gently take his shoulder. “Maybe you should-“ it was instant. His face was on your shoulder. Wrapping your arms around him, you lead him to a spot to lay. “Careful.” You maneuver him so he could be comfortable but his arms were wrapped around your waist.

This couldn’t be comfortable.

But your hand still found his hair brushing through the caramel locks. His hair was surprisingly soft for all the shenanigans a Link goes through. Making small adjustments here and there. From making his sailcloth to function as a blanket. To moving his head to your lap. Which didn’t really make him let you go.

Now to wait….

You sigh and close your own eyes as you know this was going to last for a while.

Legend:

“Go to sleep.”

“No.”

“You need to sleep.”

“I’m not sleeping.”

“Link.” You were at your limit with this man. He was going on 24 hours without any sleep for him. Before you could get mad at him you close your eyes and took deep breaths. You weren’t going to raise your voice as there are other people sleeping in the inn. “Come here.”

The Veteran looked at you confused and honestly suspicious. He didn’t know what you were planning. It was as if you were a mimic trying to trap him. Which… you were… but beside the point.

This man is stubborn.

Opening your arms. You waited for him to stop looking at you like you’re going to kill him. Legend keeps staring at you unsure. But slowly he crumbles even if it never showed on his face but his shoulders released the tension there and his hands dropped to his side. Slowly the Veteran came into your arms and lay his head on your chest. “I hate you.” He mumbles hiding his face so it wasn’t visible to you.

“No you don’t.”

Hyrule:

The one normal one. You realized quickly that Hyrule just needs to be around someone he trusted to sleep. It was quick that you were one of the safe places. There isn’t a real reason. When you asked he would just shrug and say “why not?” As you don’t really do the fighting in the group being more of a caretaker. Even though Hyrule was the medic, you were the one doing the emotional care. You work as a team. You are his right hand for lack of better words.

So when its time to set up camp for the night Hyrule finds you and always places his bedroll next to you. It’s safer this way. He is a light sleeper so if something were to happen he would be able to protect you. When he is particularly sleepy from healing to much he doesn’t even give you a chance to set up your bed roll and just collapse on you. No warning. No issue. “Hyrule please I need to-“

“No.” Hyrule wraps both his arms and legs around you. You’re the one thats trapped now. “I’m tired.”

You couldn’t help but sigh as this was the routine. Seeing how you were now stuck underneath the travel Legend comes to the rescue. He takes the abandoned blankets and set up for you. “Do you need help moving with him?” He asks.

“Maybe.”
