Summary
However, there was more to it than just that. Far more to it.
He was stumbling; Barely able to stand upright on his own without the help of the doorframe.
His face was also flushed in a deep, flustered, crimson. Time almost thought he had a fever, if it weren't for his oddly energetic mannerism.
Something was seriously not right.
OR
Warriors drinks to cope, and is a very affectionate drunk. Time doesn't receive it so well.

Summary
On his lap sat Wild, who with watery eyes, stared pleadingly up towards Time.
"What is it, little one?" He bounced his leg a little, smiling when Wild laughed behind his hands.
"Bored." He mumbled petulantly, his eyebrows creasing slightly.
"Are you now?" Time huffed in endearment. It wasn't very often that Wild asked for something.
Twilight's ears perked up.
"I… I know something we can do." Twilight said, his face a deep crimson. Both looked over at the boy in surprise. "Um… If you want to, I-I mean." He began kneading his fingers on his lap.
Wild looked up again at Time, this time expectantly. "Okay." The boy's voice was barely over a whisper, hidden behind the sleeve he began to chew.
OR
Wild learns what it's like to be part of a family.

Summary
"So," Renado cleared his throat. "I heard you haven't been feeling very well."
All eyes suddenly fixated on Legend. He felt like he might choke.
Stammering, his attempts at words gave out to a weak little noise that caught in his throat.
Renado hummed, while Time got a bit more comfortable on one of the seats, idly playing with his wristwatch. It seems that they all somehow collectively knew that they'd be here for quite some time.
"Have you been using your heating packs regularly?" Renado slowly approached Legend akin to how one would to a forest animal. At this very moment, Legend felt like one.
OR
Legend's joint pain has been worsening.

Summary
Four shouldn't have ran from Time like that. They should have apologized, Four should have been better, they should have known better. There was so much that Four should have been doing, so much more that Four could have been doing. They didn't like this at all.
Four was too clueless. They felt too hopeless, and little to do near anything. Four needed that guidance, that reassurance, and that sort of assistance.
Even so, Four doesn't want it to be like this. Four wants to be carried, to be held securely in somebody's arms. They want to be cuddled, cooed at, and allowed to cry. Four doesn't want this. Four doesn't want to be alone. Four doesn't want to be in this sort of, sort of- time-out. Four didn't want that at all.
OR
Four comes back from school rather upset. Albeit, they wish things could have gone better.

Summary
It’s because she loved you” Saria said, answering his question. “And you didn’t abandon her, out of your own will. You fought to defend your home from a looming threat. You did what you thought was best for her safety. Because you also did it out of love”.
Link grasps her hand tightly, like he wanted to feel her warm but also to reassure himself that this was real. What she said was real. Because, deep down he knew that Saria would never lie for something like this.
“I didn’t deserved her” he could only said in the end.
“You deserved her. You did everything you could for this land and her and everyone you care about. And she manage to provide you with a peaceful and quiet life. A life that would not be possible without you”.
“Don’t you think that you also deserve some rest after everything you have done?”.
(Or Hero's Spirit get a visitor, sometime after he return to the Lost forest and after learning something he decided to return back to LOn Lon ranch and got a first meeting with his descendant and future hero of Twilight).

Summary
"Do you think someone did this?" Twilight said exactly what Warriors was thinking.
"What the fuck." Warriors deadpanned, staring intensely at Twilight. "What the fuck! Who snitched on us?" He cried. "It better not be Wild, that little-"
"Do either of you know why you're here?" Warriors felt the room slightly shake as the door hit the wall. He also felt Twilight flinch from Time's yelling. Warriors immediately shut up.

The Absent Blue of Your Gaze by amayis_bigtower

Summary
In search of a new danger that threatened to assault Time’s Hyrule, the chain walked into the deep Lost Woods, guided by their leader who opened the path through the darkness. What they didn’t expect, though, is that the danger might sometimes be closer than they think. It might be in the nearest tree, in the flower that stands alone at their feet, in the blade of grass that looks slightly suspicious.
Who knows, it could even maybe —just maybe— be in the shape of their own footsteps. In the wind that lightly hits their faces. In the darkness of their own shadows.
They don’t know if it's standing right next to them. Or watching them in their sleep. Or talking to them using words that feel somehow in the wrong voice.
It’s hard to believe that it could even be staring directly at their eyes with the gaze that used to be blue.

Summary
"What..?" Shadow breathed. "What the fuck are you talking about?!" Shadow screeched, stomping his foot on the ground. His hands were curled in balls so tightly that red crescents formed from the pressure of his unkept nails.
"I'm alive, aren't I?" Four laughed, manic. "I-I'm not laying dead in a ditch somewhere, I must thank you for your time!"
"What? I-"
"No, no- Really, I mean it!" Four grinned like the Cheshire himself. "I don't need you anymore."
Shadow felt as though icicles pierced through his always-cold skin. His blood ran even colder than it already was.
"Its over!" Four announced, clearly blinded by some sort of false reverie and disbelief.
"You're damn right it is." Shadow spat.
OR
Four can't get over the past. Loss always follows.

Summary
Warriors didn't like that. He didn't like how Time knew everything, how Time was always there to help him. For once, Warriors wanted to suffer on his own, by his own hands. Time didn't need to know. Warriors didn't want Time to know.
Because if Time knew, then not only would he want to help Warriors, but also stop him. If Time knew, then Warriors was going to have his blade taken away, have his bleeding, gaping wounds get lovingly wrapped and covered to heal. And even worse, Time was going to hold him through it all. He was going to caress Warriors' frail hands, bring them up, and kiss them. He would have tears in his eyes, Time's voice would fail him as he would promise Warriors over and over again, just how loved he is. That he doesn't ever need to fall to this, and that Warriors is safe here. Warriors could already see that happening. He doesn't want that. He doesn't want his pity.
OR
Warriors comes to a realization.
