I know this concept but have no word for it

I'm not familiar with this concept

You either die a hero…

or you live long enough to see yourself become Nathalie.

Expanding on this a bit! Holders of Sky's Hero's Spirit: First (the original incarnation, predates Skyloft), Sky, Four (hero of Men, Minish, and the Four Sword), Time, Legend, Hyrule, Twilight, Warriors (maybe, I'm undecided whose spirit Wars inherited), the Ancient Hero (hero of the previous Calamity), and Champion (pre-BoTW Link). Holders of Hero's Spirit 2.0: Wind (the original, as Sky's spirit no longer existed in his timeline), Spirit (Spirit Tracks Link, Wind's immediate successor), and Wild. This is one reason Wild has so much fun with the Sheikah Slate and, later, the Zonai devices; it's a passion for engineering he inherited from Spirit (aka the only Link with a stable 9-to-5). Warriors could theoretically also be in Wind's spiritual lineage, depending on whether the timeline merged before or during his adventure.

I also believe that, in the case where Wild and Champion are different souls, Champion absolutely sticks around like the rest of the champion's spirits. He's the one supplying the time magic for Flurry Rush and aerial archery. Unlike the rest of the champions, instead of separating his ability into a spirit orb thing to gift it to Wild, Champ just naps in Wild's soul as his whole entire self. With Wild as his anchor, he's not planning to move on until Wild does. (This is how Wild is able to get Champ's memories too.)

LU Idea

I have a new LU headcanon. It combines two others I've seen: first, that Wild is not the same person/soul as Link from before the Shrine of Resurrection, and second, that Wind forged his own Hero's Spirit, rather than being a reincarnation of Sky. What if pre-Shrine Link (Champion) had Sky's spirit, but his soul had already passed on when his body was placed in the Shrine. The Link who emerged 100 years later (Wild) is therefore Wind's reincarnation, not Sky's.

DuPree is always fun*

*presuming your sense of fun is centered around fire and screaming. Here she is in the Seige of Mechanicsburg:

I really want a fic of Gil following DuPree around trying to figure out what the big stuff is. Scientifically. Possibly with a clip board. That Dupree, naturally, sets on fire.

Also my original response when reading this was to think ‘well Gil! She hasn’t set you on fire. That’s nice. Maybe you’re Big Stuff’.

And then I kept reading

LS Master Post

A Link-meets-Link AU where the Hero’s Spirit gets separated from their body via a magic dagger, and they find out they can time-travel to their past reincarnations.

General AU warnings: assume if it's been in any loz game, it'll be similar here, but, more specifically: Stabbing, injury, ghosts, possession, mental health illness discussion/depictions (generally nonspecific), chronic illness/pain, peril, blood, blood sacrifice mentions, death mentions, previous deaths (ie botwink)
