#fours wips

“Y’know,”Vio started with a gentle sigh, leaning into Shadow. “People don’t usually burn villages down together as a date.” “...what would you consider a date, then?”Shadow blinked, utterly clueless as he worked the knots out of Vio’s shoulders. “Gods, being around those heroes made you really tense...”He muttered, waiting for Vio to answer. “Mh,,,stargazing would make a nice date. I could even tell you ‘bout different constellations if you’d like.” “Stargazing, hm?”Shadow whistled. “Good to know.”

Well…isn’t that familiar? Shadow didn’t try to kill me because I loved somebody else, you fucking moron. He tried to kill me because I betrayed him and broke his trust. ..do you love someone else? Please say you aren’t in love with Shadow. …I am still very much in love with him, thank you You don’t understand—he isn’t a bad person! He was on the wrong path, is all…Shadow was misguided. He tried to kill us! You tried to kill us! No, Vio tried to kill you Blue has a point…Vio didn’t hurt me or Blue physically. I apologised for trying to kill you, but I will toss you into lava the next time I get a chance if you don’t shut your fucking mouth— You want a rematch? Please don’t fight This time? I’d actually kill you instead of pretending. Bold words coming from an ex-villain. Who said I’m an ex-villain? I could be working against you all right now and you wouldn’t even know it. But you’re not, right? Of course not, Dark Link is nowhere near hot enough to make me betray you all, but it was a possibility— “Uhh…Four?” Four’s eyes turned to the chain, only to find them all staring. “Yes? Did you ask me something?” “No but…you just had…a whole conversation with yourself? A concerning one.”Warriors frowned, and Four wanted the ground to swallow him whole. We used to be better at not doing that. 90% sure we only spoke aloud because Vio and Green want to kill each other, which is stressful for Four. And you, Red. I guess so..

Four seemed stressed once he realised they were in his era. “You okay Four?”Legend raised a brow, arms crossed with an amused smirk on his face. “Uh—yeah, sure, can you guys hang out in Castle Town for a little while?” Four didn’t actually give them a choice, darting off almost as soon as he ended his sentence. Where the hell is he? Four kept walking, a frown on his face as he finally found who he was looking for. “Shadow!” The shade jumped a bit, and spun around to face Four. In his arms is the bundle Four was freaking out over. Four shot Shadow a look, taking the bundle up into his arms. “I told you not to bring him anywhere near Castle Town, Shadow.” Shadow let out a sigh, leaning against Four and stroking the baby hylians cheek gently. “I know. I’m sorry.” “Where’s—” “The princess wanted to have her for today. Your dad’s supervising.” Four let out a sigh of relief, nodding. “Okay. Okay, good.”

Four always claimed to have no scars on his body. Well, he said he didn’t have any big ones. He’d mentioned the burn scars from working, but claimed that those were all he had. Four’s a liar, and he knew they’d find that out eventually. But not now. Not like this. Four thought he was alone. Four thought the chain were too distracted to look at him—and he was wrong. He had removed his sleep shirt, and was almost instantly met with a shocked yell from Wind. …and they saw it. They saw Four’s scar—scars? “Four what…what happened to you?!”Hyrule gasped, rushing over to get a look. …Four can’t tell them the truth. The truth is, when the colours fight too much, Four is forced to split. And it hurts. A lot. To the point it left scars on his torso, quartering his body entirely. It looks strange, too. While 3 of the scars look like regular scars…the fourth and final one is different. That one is black. That one is black, because that one is Vio’s scar. Vio’s cursed, after all.

“Do you ever wonder why I don’t wear pants?”Legend asked, taking a drink from his cup. They’re at the ranch, and Legend had made cider—which they didn’t know he could do before—so now they are all drinking. Even Wind, Hyrule and Four were allowed to drink. “We always do.”Warriors rolled his eyes. Legend cracked a smile, eyes shining. “It’s ‘cause I lost my dick to a zipper.”His smile turned into a grin when Four, Twilight and Sky began to laugh. And, of course, they feel they have the right to join in. So they did, and Legend knew they would. “Really? Damn, I only lost my dick because my boyfriend got a bit too excited during a blowjob.”Four started, covering his mouth so he didn’t laugh too loud. “Ah, dammit, I left mine at home.”Sky shrugged lazily, grinning. “For me…well, everyone has to make sacrifices in a war-like situation.”Twilight hummed, but quickly broke into laughter upon seeing the confusion on the others’ faces.

The chain had discussed it for months, trying to figure Four out from a distance. But whenever they thought they were understanding him, something changed. They thought he was the most responsible Link—until he accidentally caused an explosion. They thought he was the most irresponsible Link—until he saved their asses with a very good fight-plan. They thought he was the calmest Link—until he blew up on a stranger for calling him a kid. They thought he was the angriest Link—until he comforted Wind during a patch of homesickness. Nobody knows who Four really is.

Four hummed, gently fastening the clip on the binds before she paused, poking at the side of Legend’s neck. “What’s that?” “One, don’t poke my neck you weirdo—”Legend’s comment earned a giggle from the smithy. “Two…do you mean my tattoo?” “Yeah! The purple bunny...” “Oh..that.”Legend cracked a little smile. “It’s a matching tattoo I have with Ravio. He…has a pink bunny instead of a purple one.” “Ravio? That weird merchant?” Legend let out a laugh, nodding. “That weird merchant.” “Why do you have a matching tattoo with him?”Four crossed faer legs, eyes shifting from red to purple in an instant. Legend glanced up at the sky, smiling. “We’ve been married for a year.” Four let out a gasp and gently shoved Legend. “Shut up—no way!” Legend nodded and held out his hand. “Notice how I only have one silver ring?” “You’ve been wearing your wedding ring this whole time!”Four’s eyes lit up. “You bitch!” “Easy, Vi, no need to call me that because you finally weren’t observant enough.” Four huffed. “You’re an asshole. You’re worse than Shade.” “Shade?”Legend blinked, grinning when Four flushed. “Who’s Shade?”

“Do you..?” “Hear them?”When Four got a nod, he nodded in return. “Yeah. All the time.” “And people…don’t call you crazy?” Four couldn’t help it and let out a loud laugh. “Oh, they think I’m insane. But I don’t let it get to me anymore.” “Oh..” “When people told me I was…broken…for talking to the colours out loud, I told them I was just bent. Because I know I’m not quite right, but I’m not broken. And neither are you.”
