Summary
"Psh! No way, Pretty Boy! You'll smear your perfume in me." Wind giggled as he ducked Warriors's weak attempt to hug him.
Brothers were fun. Wind wasn’t even sorry that these guys were growing on him. Like mold. He wondered what his family would think of them.
"It'll be an improvement!" Warriors insisted.

A few of the higher ups in SHIELD began to suspect that there were some striking differences between Captain America from the history books, and Steve Rogers. There was no definitive proof, but they suspected.

Summary
Warriors learned most of his hero skills in battle. How to lead, how to comfort, how to defend, and how to distract. How to be a good leader and a better comrade. He learned as fast as he could for his country, and for his Queen, and for the child heroes that were summoned to help him when he was not enough on his own.
Those skills failed Wild, but he will still learn. He refuses to fail this new hero, Linkle. He will be open and willing to listen when asked for help even when help cannot be asked through pride or uncertainty.
Faced with grim news from home, Warriors was starting to recognize how out of practice he was when it came to asking for help for himself.

Summary
Ganondorf wasn’t wrong; the gods were the ones to flood Hyrule, not him. Link could recognize, as powerful and terrifying as the man was, that none of the girls he kidnapped had actually been hurt. Even he and Tetra, who actively got in his way, were barely given more than a bruise in the man’s rage while they fought.
So, in that single last chance Link had to finish their fight for good, the decision was simple.
He spared him.

Summary
She’s an ancestor, Blue declared.
Vio could tell, She’s definitely a descendant!
I’m pretty sure she’s another timeline version, Red hummed.
Maybe she’s not even a Hero of Courage, Green wondered. Perhaps she’s of Wisdom.Four was determined to do better with Linkle than he did with Wild. He was certain they all were, doing their best to be politely curious and cautiously aware of what habits she was showing them. They were going to be a team this time; if some painful self realizations were necessary, so be it.

Summary
The journey from strangers to teammates to friends to family is hard when opening yourself up means risking the pain of unintentional mistakes. Heartfelt apologies may go a long way to mend those hurts, but being mended doesn’t always mean repaired.
A single loose end could undo everything all over again.

Summary
So Rocky makes a list.
Reasons why friend Grace’s eyes leaked this Eridian cycle:
1. One of the students gave him a carving of Earth. It was lopsided and the continents were wrong, but Grace held it to his chest and his eyes started leaking. It looked like the round-soft-thing he gave me when we first said goodbye.

Summary
“Sleep. I watch,” he warbles from his post at the door. The first thing he’s said to me in hours. We haven’t talked about anything yet, aside from his pushing to prove I wasn’t hiding more contraband. I scowl at him.
“Don’t want to.” I feel like one of my kids with the level of petulance that seeps into my voice. I miss my kids. I miss having a place. I have a place here, I need to accept it’s just… Different. Still, I’m not gonna listen to Rocky right now.
Rocky grumbles at me. “Scientists say Grace hasn’t slept in 32.6 hours.” Jeez, has it really been that long? I don’t think I’ve had an all-nighter that bad since college. “Cognitive impairment begins after only 24. Bad decisions, dangerous thoughts like you mention. Why you are sick.”
“You left me.” I didn’t mean to say that. Too late.
or Grace is having a hard time adjusting to life on Erid, and it only gets worse when Rocky disappears. They work it out.

Summary
Ryland Grace knows his time is coming.
Worst of all, Ryland thinks Rocky knows it, too.
But... there might be another way for him to keep living.
("So," Ryland says, hands clasped on the table. “An artificial body, huh?”
“Yes.” Rocky sounds concerned. “We went over this, Grace.”)

Summary
"...emitting a radio frequency, I tuned into it expecting little more than feedback, maybe due to a magnetic inbalance-”
“And??”
Wordlessly, they flick a switch, and the noise is played loud enough for the entire room to hear it.
“Please,” a voice sobs, “Please, it hurts- I'm scared, I just- please, I just want to live. Why doesn't anyone else want that? Why can't I- I want to-” it breaks off into more sobbing and the room practically vibrates with tension.
“That-! That is the language spoken by Engineer Rocky's Grace! That is HUMAN language!”
“Yes.”
“There is a human down there?? That shouldn't be-”
“But there is. What now?”
