    Summary

    “Etched in the surface as evidence, I left there on purpose."

    Elaine M. Day enters the Division of Security Operations training program with no illusions about what it is meant to be.
    The DSO is not the FBI, not the military, not a branch that exists on any public chart. It is a reticent machine that takes people, no– soldiers– already broken in useful ways and teaches them how to disappear: into bureaucracy, into sanctioned violence, into the space where orders become easier than morality.

    Elaine excels, too well. She is rigorous, unyielding, painfully disciplined, and wholly uninterested in the fragile bonds her fellow trainees cling to for survival. She calls it professionalism. The DSO calls it raw potential.

    Leon Kennedy, pulled fresh from a disastrous first day as a rookie cop, is another recruit. He is capable, stubborn, and infuriatingly human in ways Elaine refuses to indulge. Their interactions are sharp-edged and transactional, defined by rivalry and restraint rather than trust. Whatever tension coils between them is not attraction, but friction. Two people shaped by the same system in incompatible ways, forced together by an institution that thrives on pressure.

    Can you find me?

    Summary

    Legend loved music, goddesses, half his adventures revolved around music and he loved it. Was he surprised that Time turned to him, the veteran who also knew music, and confided in him his musical back-up plan? A little, but he understood taking precautions.

    He was more surprised when that precaution paid off, but its a good thing Nayru owed him one.

    Summary

    They were in a bad, bad spot for an earthquake. A landslip could easily conceal the entrance to the dungeon. Hell, he wasn’t even sure if this cavernous area could withstand an earthquake.
    A few more seconds went by. Legend and Wild remained frozen, listening.
    The rumbling continued, like a growl, like a grindstone at work.
    “We should go.” Wild whispered. His voice echoed and drowned at the same time. The room felt like the inside of a drum.
    Legend felt a chill. Not for the first time, he wondered if this dungeon would be his tomb.

    Summary

    I do Whumptober 2023, except I might not be following the rules exactly? So I don’t intend for it to be an official submission. Idk tbh. I just read the prompts and wrote a fic based on one or two per day, sometimes three if it worked, but not really.

    Oh and they’re all about Legend from Linked Universe, because he needs more content and so it’s all Legend-centric.
