Summary
Now 14 and a half and training for knighthood, Link has grown weary of all the stale, uninspired sparring lessons his instructors mandate from day to day. Despite all his effort, his peers treat him like a child, and even his own father seems to doubt he's ready for a real fight. No matter how hard he tries to win their approval, everyone still thinks he's weak.
But when a terrible upheaval shakes the very foundations of his world, Link is given a clear choice: will he allow such an upheaval to compromise him, or will he find the courage to prove his worth and rise above it? For the sake of all Hyrule, what kind of hero will he become?
True fealty, though... as he'll soon come to realize... always comes at a price.

Legend of Zelda Short Stories by Novantinuum
Fandom Hyrule Warriors: Age of Calamity (Video Game), Hyrule Warriors: Age of Imprisonment, The Legend of Zelda & Related Fandoms, The Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild/Tears of the Kingdom
21 Feb 2026
Summary
A collection of stand-alone Wild era Legend of Zelda stories I’ve written. Some may be short scenes or short multi chapters, others are one-shot collections… some may include shipping, but most are gen fic. There is one spicy fic in here- the rest are T or G.
The fics I've chosen to include in this series are those that can fit within established canon— or at least my own interpretation of it— with the exception that I have Link keep Rauru’s arm after the events of TotK. This is just a personal preference… I think it opens the door for some interesting character work I can do for Link post TotK.
A few fics will be listed as belonging to both this series and my AU series “The Ballad of Aryll”— these fics take place pre Calamity and pre AU divergence, and beyond the heavy involvement of my family for Link, can be considered “compliant.”

The Ballad of Aryll by Novantinuum

05 May 2026
Summary
A collection of stories set in my AU-verse where Link wakes up on the Great Plateau beside his little sister.
This series will eventually feature family backstory set pre-Calamity, and also a few ficlets that take place during TotK. Some of the stories pre-calamity could be read as canon compliant, since they take place before the AU divergence.

Brandishing the Star: A Crystal Gem's Guide to the Universe (SU shorts) by Novantinuum
Fandom Steven Universe (Cartoon)
27 Aug 2025
Summary
A collection of stand-alone short fics and one-shots that tackle moments during episodes, between episodes, and beyond. Mostly canon compliant, (at least in my mind), besides a few older stories that have since been jossed by Steven Universe Future. Very character and relationship focused! :D
Do pay careful attention to the tags, as I often tackle delicate mental illness related topics.
I will update the order to keep it chronological with any new stories I add to this series.

The Matriarch Protocol by Astraliies (Novantinuum), NugatorySheep
Fandom Steven Universe (Cartoon)
27 May 2025
Summary
The five core tenets of the Matriarch Protocol are as follows:
1. In line with current era standards, production of new generations of Gems may ONLY take place through official Homeworld incubation centers, and as outlined in the following document. The operation of unsanctioned Kindergartens or incubation centers is strictly prohibited.2. Gem type distribution shall be based on an evolving schedule of supply and demand. Some types may have incubation selection temporarily suspended if essence requirements are a limiting factor, or if said type has hit certain population thresholds.
3. Regardless of type, all new Gems shall be incubated with use of His Radiance, Pink Diamond’s essence as one of the base ingredients. He is to be the core progenitor of all Gemkind.
4. The bearers of these incubations will be known as “matriarchs,” and are to be selected as per His Radiance’s preferences.
5. All matriarchs must verbally consent and be deemed sound of mind prior to their participation in the program.

Summary
In the wake of an ill-fated discovery, Steven vies to pick up all the pieces. The Gems are in turmoil: Pearl can’t speak the truth, Garnet chose to separate, and Amethyst's confidence has hit rock bottom. Somehow, his mom is Pink Diamond. But what exactly does that mean for him? Why did his mom really choose to fake-shatter herself and obscure her identity?
With the very foundation of his home life shifting around him, can Steven ever hope to find answers on his own? Or will his growing obsession with seeking this truth ultimately crack his world all over again?
Canon divergent as of season 3 episode 20, Bismuth.

How's About It, Link? by WritingonImpulse

Summary
"You know, you should stop by my place on Tuesday," Zelda comments in a tone so jarringly sweet he's reeled right back in.
He shakes his head, certain he's misheard her. "What? I-"
"Our cleaning lady comes by on Tuesdays," she smiles. "Maybe she can vacuum all those cobwebs out of your ears-since your head is so pathetically void of any intelligent thought."
Link slams the pencil down flat. "If you hate tutoring me so much, why don't you just quit already?"It's Link most daunting adventure yet: High school! Having just moved to the big city, Link is struggling in more ways than one: Relentless bullying, no friends besides his sassy little sister, and to top it all off, he's failing! But when tutoring pits him against the most popular girl in school, he realizes he might not be the only one in need of rescuing.
[This story is a BotW-focused AU with a couple tweaks and some familiar faces'n'places from other games joining along the way!]

Link, that isn't normal by TheQueenOfBubbles

14 Jun 2025
Tags
Summary
Got bored one night, started writing down ideas and thought it be funny to try and find a way to explain why Link/Links can do so much crazy shit that we write off as "Oh, that's just game logic" but to the denizens of Hyrule, they live both in fear and respect of what this creature even is.
For context, Link knows and has both his champion abilities and Rauru abilities at the same time. It will get WILDLY overexaggerated, you'll see what I mean.Bookmarked by Novantinuum
