Fear of being rejection and self doubt are a horrible conbination

Summary:
The chain end up in a dungeon and it seems that everyone is split into groups of three. While Twilight, Hyrule and Four are traveling the dungeon they in counter a Dark Link that looks like the Captain, but the Dark is younger and more timid and fear full of them.
This leads to confusion, adoption, and worming into the hearts of Twilight.
But still.....
Something is wrong with this dungeon.
And someone is missing.And a grayish looking hand with black gloves swats Twi away as Twilight continues to poke his nose onto the wall. Four lowers himself more into Twilight's fur and Hyrule does too, but he ends up inhaling some dirt off of Twilight fur, causing him to choke.
And Twi being a smart wolf, finds something and goes to tug the thing with his mouth from the shadows from the wall. A dark looking copy of Warriors stares at them with red eyes, gray skin, white hair, the funky cone hat they all wore once, and a black tunic and scarf.
-
“But it doesn't make sense.” Green says aloud. “The captain is so collected and has very high self esteem. It doesn't really make sense that his Shadow would be a scared trembling mess.”
The d-no Shadow Link looked somewhat offended at Green's comment. But when Hyrule had flown a little too close to it, it scooted to the left away from him. An overly timid Captain, never thought he saw that day.
-
(Meanwhile Time’s group:
“You're such an adorable bunny, Legend!”
“Fuck off!”
“Is mister bunny upset?”
“Shut the fuck up Wild!”
“Time! Legend is being a grumpy pants!”
"Woof.”)
-
Twilight looks up to see the Dark alarmed and mouthing words with no voice coming out. Before settling on shaking its head in no. It looked sad at itself, for not being able to speak. Twilight nuzzles his head on the Dark's hand, and the Dark has a tiny unsure smile in thanks.
Well hot damn. Another lost child wormed their way into his heart.( “Wild!” Sky and Wind shouted as they ran up to Wild who was currently with two animals right now.
"Sky get me the sword!”Legend demands.
"You're pink!”Wind says in shock. "And you're a bunny!”
"Sheesh, for a tiny creature you're loud.” Wild grumbled, as he clutched his ears.
Sky hands Legend the sword to touch, and Time puts a paw on the blade. Both heroes turn back into Hylian. Legend flips Wild off.
“Have you guys seen the Captain?” Sky asked sheepishly.
“No, we haven't.” Time answered. "I assumed that he was with you or the Pup.”
"But he's not,”Wind answered. “I could have sworn I saw him with us, but he wasn't there.”
“Then,"Legend asks, "Where is he?".)

A Dark Link.

“We're going to need you two to explain how you two exactly know Silent.” Twilight says.Wind sighs, “War of Era's.”
“War of Era's?”Sky echoed, “But wouldn't that mean you were-”
“Yes. We were with the captain during his adventure.” Time answered.
“The captain never mentioned it.” Legend says.
“I don't think he could have.” Wind mutters.
“Why?” Hyrule demanded. “Does it have to do with this Lana person?”
-
Will Link want to kill him again?The hero’s sword drops to the ground before Link collapses on the ground on his knees.
He ignores how the hero is holding his hand, the hand the tri-force haunts.
“Link?” He whispered
“How long has it been.." Link’s voice shakes.
“What?”
“How long has it been since the war started?” Link asks him.
“The war ended years ago.” He answered mournfully, watching as the young hero crumbled right in front of him.
___
“Yeah, pretty much,” Wind answers, “ like technically, we spent like a year or two maybe, then got mind wipes so, I’m actually sixteen. Time was eleven when he was dragged through, so still a mystery for the old man.”
Two years he completely forgot, memories that were stripped from him, and his timeline didn’t age a day since he vanished. He’s pretty sure he grew up a bit, because he remembers how many people pointed it out to him.
He regrets beaming with pride that he wasn’t as short anymore.
“What?” Wild questions, and Four has this look of disgust.
“I refuse to be the youngest.”
Wind laughs, “Too bad baby hero.”

Summary
What the title says. About 11 years ago (from my perspective; relativity is weird) I was launched into space onboard the Hail Mary to figure out a solution to the Astrophage problem. Now I live on an alien planet I call Erid, in the 40-Eridani system. Yes, I’m actually Ryland Grace. Ask me anything.
Also, can someone please tell me if Eva Stratt is alive? And ideally send me a video of you punching her in the face? Guess that’s a long shot, but it can’t hurt to ask.
---
Grace and Rocky figure out how to connect to Earth's internet from Erid. They may not have thought this through.

u/petri_fied OP
Short, really oversimplified answer: lots of data bundles sent across a series of nodes using quantum teleportation. Long (really long) answer can be found here on my substack. Side note, if anyone knows of any scientific journals that would be interested in publishing the work of a guy stuck in space with questionable credentials, hit me up.

u/sarahvera
is it crazy if i say him linking to a substack kinda convinced me this is real. who still uses substack in 2045?
↑-5↓
u/petri_fied OP
Way to make a guy feel old. Jeez, is it really 2045? I was kinda hoping my math was wrong.

petri_fied 2:08 PMWhat do you want?
EStratt 2:08 PM
Your connection is surprisingly fast.
petri_fied 2:08 PM
Tell me what you want or I’m blocking you
EStratt 2:09 PM
I’d like you to delete the comments regarding the circumstances surrounding your launch on the Hail Mary and make a statement retracting the allegations.
petri_fied 2:11 PM
And why would I EVER do that
EStratt 2:11 PM
Because if you don’t, the UN will hand over the reins of the Hail Mary taskforce to someone who has never met you.
petri_fied 2:12 PM
GOOD!

petri_fied 5:12 PMNot joking. Preferably Carl.
Alternatively the Rock. Or John Cena.
Rocky would like me to clarify that you get extra points if the guy punching you is wearing a mask that looks like his carapace
EStratt 5:13 PM
Dr. Grace, you must know that I am deeply sorry for what I did.
petri_fied 5:14 PM
I don’t know that at all actually
EStratt 5:15 PM
I don’t regret it, but I am sorry. I’ve been sorry since before I even did it. If there had been any other option I would have taken it.
petri_fied 5:16 PM
Any better option, you mean
-
u/petri_fiedOh my God. Please ignore the previous messages. My friend took my laptop. I’m sure you’re a very nice person who doesn’t live in a cave. I’ll make him his own account so this doesn’t happen again.

[ROCKY]: Creatures on Erid not evolve to have eyes. Would not make sense! Instead evolve echolocation, similar to Earth animals bats and dolphins. If you are dolphin tell me in comments![GRACE]: No, they—Rock, dolphins can’t use computers.
[ROCKY]: Grace say dolphins are intelligent.
[GRACE]: Intelligent enough to learn how to, like… have empathy and build social structures. But they can’t speak human language. They can’t use computers.
[ROCKY]: Ohh. Eridian do not call that intelligent, we call “unknown word or phrase.” Separate concept. Eridian sky creatures are “unknown word or phrase,” but Eridian people are intelligent. Sad sad sad, no dolphin in comments.
-
[ROCKY]: Much fun explaining Eridian biology! Thank thank thank. Send video to all friends and give Rocky compliments in video comments.[GRACE]: What he said. Until next time, Earth.
Rocky runs his claws over his opposite textured forearm.
[Repetitive percussive noises]
[GRACE]: That’s how we say goodbye here on Erid.
Grace rubs one hand over his opposite forearm. Then he waves, reaches forward, and turns off the camera.

While the Strawhats make their way to Water 7, Sanji stumbles upon one of his siblings far too early and in a way he had never expected to. What is a cook to do when he finds himself faced with the possibility that he could actually gain a positive brotherly relationship?

Ch10
“He has blue hair, wears glasses, and is about your height and build— give or take an inch.” Niji’s gone missing? And he’s sent you to search for him? What a crazy situation.
-
Reiju’s eyes widened in a near imperceivable fraction as they grew colder. “You told him.” “Yes, I did.” Sanji snapped out his hand. Holding it up to signal Halt in that sickeningly familiar short-hand they’d learned before they could even read. Reiju followed it and didn’t make any sudden movements to the relief of her brother. “I’ve told my dad plenty. I get nightmares… it happens.” She relaxed fractionally as she registered his words. Eyes retreating from their frosty hold. Melting back into her typical lukewarm gaze. Then growing warmer in a fashion Sanji hadn’t seen since their mother died. A certain shift in her posture that could be registered as pride. “You found yourself a new father, Sanji? I like the sound of that.” She nodded, eyes shifting slightly to look past the men and off into a distance they couldn’t reach. Before she returned back to them. “I know… mother would be happy to hear you found someone that could cherish you in a way that we couldn’t.” “Rei…” Sanji’s eyes welled up.
-
“If our father were to ever find interest in Sanji’s whereabouts, I’ll tell him exactly that: the prince is long dead and has been for years. Whether it be literal or in memory.” She sighed. “However, Sanji, your existence is about as taboo a subject as our mother’s. I doubt there is any need for you to worry.” Her little brother took in a choppy gasp as he fought against the need to cry. Failure. Crybaby. Weak. He shook his head. “Is it stupid of me to feel— I don’t know— pissed off at that? That I'm not— not even a passing thought in anyone’s mind? My own family just hates me for even being born?!” “I don’t think many of us have the capability to—“, Reiju was seared by a heated glare from her brother, so she diverted and tried a different method to sooth him, “… I don’t hate you. I also think of you plenty. When I know I have some free time, I wonder about how you are, where you are, and if you are as happy as mother wished you to be. That I wish you to be. Seeing as you are the only one of us with the affordability for it, I think it would be rather selfish of you to not be.” “Selfish?!” Sanji choked out, the beginnings of an incredulous grin ghosting the corners of his mouth. “It’d be selfish of me to not be happy?” “Well, of course. Seeing as you need to be happy enough for the both of us.” Reiju’s own lips twitched upwards. Small crinkles at the corners of her eyes.

From the current season of fruits and vegetables, to their personal ratings on local restaurants, and even on which of the local shipwrights they would absolutely go down on— Which is— Wow— NOT a child-safe discussion, ladies. Deuce hoped that the poor kid was as oblivious to the insinuations as the journalist’s face grew beet red.

Notes:
Lmao... Sanji - 1
Deuce/Niji - 0 I wonder what Sanji's gonna do now? 🤭

Summary:
Nami and Robin: *Sees Masked Deuce* "...uh, Sanji... whatcha got there?" Sanji: *Flipping food in a pan in one hand, drink in the other* A smoothie. Everyone else: "What the heck is going on here?!"

There was a tug within his chest. The exact same pressure that always seemed to fill him when Luffy grew solemn. Something within him whispered, tell-him-obey-tell-him-who-is-he-?-“…I'm not sure, Captain. I have a guess, though.” My sadistic older brother. Come back to haunt me from a chapter of my life I had tried to leave far behind. ”Tell me who you think he is.” Tell-me-Tell-me-Tell-me.-”I…” don't want you to think less of me, Sanji couldn’t quite bring himself to say out loud. I just got you. I've come so far and become so much stronger thanks to you.
-
Sanji’s brother —it was Nanji, right? Noji? Ninja? Probably not Ninja— gave him a crooked smile
-
“Zoro~! Look, look— Niji-Deuce is awake!”Well, his chance to escape had passed, hadn't it? He now has both Strawhat pirates with actual Wanted posters in the room with him.
“Hm? Two-two, huh? Well, okay then, Double-Two. You don't look like you're doing very well right now. Getting tired of my Captain?” There was certainly no little level of snide amusement in the swordsman’s voice as the man drew closer. “I don't blame you. Wouldn't expect a little blueberry like you to be capable of keeping up with Luffy.”
-
“You look like moss is growing out of your head.” Deuce blinked his wide eyes. Tilting his head as he leaned over to look closer. “It’s really uncanny…”“What?!”” Zoro yelled in rage. His teeth bared with a hand gripping the hilt of Wado. “You're kidding me! You've been conspiring with your brother against me, haven't you?”

Summary
~~ He was caught in a nightmare from a scene that happened only a few years ago. His eyes settled on the young Bianca di Angelo, clutching onto her brother tightly as they lay on the snow, unknowing of what was destined to happen.
His heart broke.
"No." He groaned, pushing him up weakly. His arms gave out on him, and he collapsed back on the frozen ground. He reached a shaky arm out toward he beast he recognized as the Manticore, core warmed with hatred and vengeance of the monster who brought Nico and his sister so violently into their world. He didn't deserve to live. "No." ~~

Ch14
"Where's Will? Where'd he go?"
Apollo could tell Nico was starting to panic, so he gathered his remaining strength to lift himself up. "Nico," He heard a gasp, "Look around you. Look where we are."
Nico raised his head slightly, paling when he realized where, or perhaps when, they were.
"What?" He gasps, suddenly more alert then he was before. "How did we- I thought- The trogs! And- and Nero's gonna destroy New York, and–!"
"Nico! Calm down. It's going to be fi–"
"Silence, mortals." Apollo's sister's voice cut in. "Who are you, and why are you bold to use my brother's name as your own?"
Apollo flinched, turning back to see his younger sister watching him with narrowed eyed, contemplating divine judgement.
Recovering from the brief moment of godly power he had, but also stronger than when he first arrived here, here being presumably in the past, he stood up, raising his hands to show he's harmless.
-
"Oddly frightened for a demigod from the future." She scoffed, rolling her eyes in way that did not seem entirely good-natured."I'm not a demigod." Apollo sighed. "I'm a mortal."
The group froze.
"A clear sighted mortal?" Percy Jackson, soon to be hero of the gods, broke in, reminding Apollo that he had forgotten that Percy was there.
"Percy!" He had exclaimed, rushing forward to embrace him. Apollo hadn't seen him in so long that instincts had taken over and he couldn't help but give him a bug hu—.
"Hold on there." Percy spoke, holding his sword tip to Apollo's throat. The sword wavered, as if he remembered something, and then he dropped his arm, sighing. "Oh yeah, Celestial Bronze can't hurt regular mortals."
"Well, I wouldn't call myself a particularly "regular" mortal." Apollo chuckled awkwardly, eyeing the sword Percy still held at his side.
"Oh, yeah. The, uh, laser beam you shot out of your hand." Percy snorted, waving his sword around haphazardly in a way that made Apollo want to back up a few steps.
"It was godly abilities! I can promise you that." He huffed. "Besides, I wasn't trying to lie earlier, my name really is Apollo."
"So you truly think that you're the god Apollo? Is that how you got yourself mixed up in all of this?" Annabeth asked, not trying to hide her sneer.
"Well, first of all—"
"Lester." A hunter of his sister tightly gripped his shoulder. Glancing back, he froze. That face haunted him . . . But he couldn't remember to whom it belonged. The familiar girl's face twisted when she saw the way Apollo was staring at her. "Men." She sounded disgusted.
-
"Oh, no." She shook her head. "No thanks.""I bet Lester over here could tell you just how great you would be!"
"You would do horrible. You'd struggle to keep the chariot in the same place in the sky, causing climate catastrophes all over New York. You'd end up crashing into the lake at Camp."
Thalia looked terrified at this. "What?"
"Don't worry, I can drive." Lester stood up, holding out a hand for the keys.
"Don't be stupid. You're mortal. You can't handle driving this."
"I may be mortal, but I can still handle it. I didn't drive this thing for millennia just to forget how to do it." Apollo dropped the keys into Lester's hand, leaning in close to observe him as he started the bus and started driving.
Nico had chosen a seat closer to the front, and close enough that he could hear the few words passed between them.
"You're driving well. Unsurprising, considering that you're me."
"You don't have to talk to me, you know."
"What?"
"I don't want to listen to you talk about how great you are. Been there, done that. I don't want to live through it again."
"What happened to you?"
Lester scoffed. "Wouldn't you like to know."
Nico tuned out the two of them, instead turning to Annabeth who sat in the seat across from him. "Hey."
"Hello?" She seemed confused that Nico chose to talk to her.
"It's pretty weird to me that you're here, because the first time I lived this through, you got kidnapped by the Manticore."
"I was what?"
-
"Slap yourself." Instantly, Lester raised a hand to his face and slapped himself. Meg snickered."I will get you back for that."
