Fluff Track

1. To Wonderland by Japo_Chan23

“This world could be a better place.”

“You did the best you could, Cook.” Twilight placed his hand on Wild’s hand, an attempt at comforting the man as they gazed at the field of the great plateau. A soft breeze brushed against all of their cheeks, eyes focused on the rubble that was spread amongst the land, landmarks that some of them once knew.

(For LU Creative Writing Train. Prompt: Hope)

2. Bedrest by attic_gremlin

Healing is tough. But, with eight brothers to keep him company, Hyrule thinks he can handle a few weeks in this cast.

Prompt: Recovery

3. The Roles We Play (The Roles We Find) by EstaJay

Or In Which injuries are hidden and Hyrule becomes a cranky healer (For the LU Creative Writing Train. Prompt: Recovery)

4. The Humor of Potion Shopping by TallyAce

It’s only after agreeing to help Twilight with errantry and subjecting himself to stumbling around an obnoxiously busy Castle Town that Hyrule realizes he is definitely NOT comfortable in crowds. He needs an escape, he needs something he can focus on to drown out the noises of the streets.

The healer turns to one of the few things he knows well, potions.

(Prompt: Healer A fic written for the LU Creative Writing Train.)

5. Solo Shopping in a Different Time Period- It’s Harder Than You Think by meme_lissa

When Sky and Legend are tasked with shopping duty for the day, things don’t go exactly as planned. Especially since Legend thought splitting up was a good idea. Sky didn’t think differences in written languages would complicate things quite this much.

(For the LU creative writing train. Prompt: Errand)

Angst Track

1. Dread by AutumnAlchemist

Hope It can be a beacon of light in the darkness, the only thing keeping one sane or it can be burst like a bubble and fizzle out into nothingness.

(Prompt: Hope)

2.  The Cold Wind…It is Blowing… by SilverSage

A storm is brewing, and Wind could tell it was going to be a bad one. But, just how bad could it be?

(LU Creative Train: Angst Track Fic number 2) (Prompt: Dread)

3. Nature has Two Sides by Okami_no_fude

Twilight liked rainy weather from a young age. But not anymore. (For the Angst Route of the LU creative train)

(Prompt: Storm)

4.  Ripples In the Waters of Time by MajesticGaZell

When regaining memories after suffering an episode of amnesia, it isn’t uncommon to forget the events that occurred while under the effects of said memory-loss. In fact, the years one experienced after a case of retrograde amnesia can be completely wiped clean as memories return, no matter how acclimated that person may be to their new life. Eight heroes bear witness to these facts first-hand. They watch him turn into the boy who bore the weight of the world on his shoulders. They watch as he reverts to the child they never knew. They watch as he remembers. And they watch as he forgets.

(Prompt: Submerged)

5.  Dear Legend by Seeking7

Dear Legend, I’m sorry. I’m sorry for what I did. It was disrespectful. It was wrong. It was so so wrong. I didn’t know it was yours. I didn’t know what I was doing. And neither do you, I just realized. So I’ll just say the truth. A long time ago, I spat on your grave. XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX Hyrule writes Legend a letter, confessing a sin from his youth. He isn’t sure how to say it.

(Prompt: Stars)

6.  Burns by sky_squido

Eight boys arrive in Arbiters Grounds.

(Prompt: Stars)

7.  Encavmaphobia by Brook182

This is my piece for the LU creative train (#7) in the angst track. I thought the theme was ‘burned/buring’ 🙈 Enjoy!

8. To Be Like You by Dragon_of_Dreams

Sky should have been faster. He could have saved them. And he knows failure hurts. And sometimes he wonders how the captain handles such loss.

(Prompt: Vulnerability)

9. Bad Dreams Plague My Mind in The Forest by Ekho (FreelancerMissouri)

This is my entry to the 2020 LU Creative Train, Angst Track! Angst Fic 9

(Prompt: Failure)

10. Dream Walker by Blueskullcandy

As for why he’s walking… He isn’t sure. Legend isn’t even sure why he’s here. Hell, Legend isn’t even sure where here is. … And isn’t that a disconcerting thought? (LU Creative Train Angst Track piece 10)

(Prompt: Nightmares)

Extreme Track

1. I leapt by Linked_Aurica

(Prompt: Hope)

2. Memories by SilverDragonMS

“Do you ever wish that you could just be with them?” Four leaned back alongside him, contemplating his words as he stared up at the stars. “Sometimes I wish that I could take their place.” “It’s not a great thing to think about, but,” Legend sighed, slinging his other arm around the smaller hero, “I feel the same. I’d give anything to trade my life for hers.”

(Prompt: Memories)

3. A Small Secret by Tofutti

Legend hated his pink hair. He hated the reminder of how vulnerable he was, how vulnerable he could be. He didn’t know how to tell Warriors to stop teasing him, or how to tell Twilight to stop egging him on. All Legend knew was that Warriors could never find out how he got it, or he’d never hear the end of it.

Linked Universe Creative Train (Extreme Track) Prompt: Sacrifice

4. sunshine and moonlight fill my mind by Skiewrites

Wild? What about the wild? They were stuck inside the coffin, how was that in the wild? Link wished he was in the wild, the open wild where the sky could look down at her with her warm smile and the moon could glare at him while he cursed him every night to continue to live on despite its efforts to kill him.
