Hi. This site is a work in progress. It's going to be ugly for a while, sorry.

We're going to drop some fic here. It'll be great. Just wait a hot minute. Eventually we'll get reader view worked out; warnings and ratings for fics will be at the top of their starting chapter.


This section will be moved to the "about" page when all this aesthetic nonsense is sorted out. In summary, we're a system, the names we use under this pseudonym are Mint (he/him), Fennel (he/him), and Wisteria (she/it). We write in a semi-professional capacity in other places. In fanfic spaces, we gravitate towards sapphic fiction, intense platonic bonds, transmasc characters, fairy nonsense, and plurality.

For obvious reasons, our fandom interests include Pocket Mirror, Slay the Princess, Yu-Gi-Oh (especially Season Zero), and Linked Universe (...mostly Four.)

Non-AI transformative works of our stuff is all welcome. Please don’t repost our stories or art to other sites without credit. Thanks!

Four’s Sword AU

A timeline of fics from a Linked Universe(lnk) AU where Four is a system, and the Four Sword works ever-so-slightly differently from the usual expected canon. Many thanks to my friend Jilli, who helps read this stuff over for us.

  • Fourfold [Ao3] — (Massive backstory tragedy fic in the works.)
  • Forged of Cerulean & Sea [Ao3] — It’s Blue’s turn to handle the Chain’s equipment maintenance. But when their sailor shows up with a couple of shields and some questions that take a wrong turn, he has to figure out how to perform some kinship maintenance too. (Light Wind Angst & Comfort.)
  • Spun of Lavender & Air [Ao3] — During a brief Minish reconnaissance in Rulie’s Hyrule, Vio finds himself kidnapped by curious fairies and taken to meet the Great Fairy of the local pond. To his surprise, another Link from their chain is there to visit her too… (Fluff, vague fairytale vibes.)
  • Would You Still Love Me If I Was A Sword [Ao3] — The Chain discuss whether or not they would like to be sword spirits.
  • Sung of Crimson & Sunset [Ao3] — A nasty portal shift leaves Red the only color awake after giving the rest of the Chain a nasty scare. It’s up to him to reassure Twilight, who’s still worried about losing Four. (Angst & Comfort. Might revise later for more Twi interiority.)
  • Honed of Viridian & Divinity [Ao3] — When Green can’t recall a recently-taught move in a sparring session, Sky tries to have a talk with Four about his memory troubles. (Veiled Green Angst.)
  • Fairweather Friend [Ao3] — The gale boomerang keeps mysteriously winding up in Wind's bag overnight. Wind, Twilight, and an accused Legend investigate. (Comedy.)
  • Scattered to the Four Winds [Ao3] — A normal foraging trip turns violent when Wind and Four are ambushed by a band of Lizalfos. After accidentally switching weapons, the pair have a new problem on their hands. Four problems, actually. (Color reveal fic, but only for Wind. Comedic and angsty both.)
  • I'm Your Little Butterfly [Ao3] — Sky touches Twilight's shadow crystal. How can Twi, Rulie, and Legend get him back to normal without the Master Sword? (Comedy.)
  • Splitting My Temples [Ao3] — When the Chain begins delving a dungeon tailored a little too closely to Four’s skillset, the Colors are forced to split up to solve a hidden room — only to get separated when the puzzle rewards them by shuffling up the entire dungeon and dividing the chain into four groups. Now with no choice but to work individually among the other Links, can the Colors keep their secret? More importantly; did they ever have to keep it in the first place?. (Color reveal fic. Comedic and angsty both, but mostly funny.)
  • A Little Experiment (Or Four) [Ao3] — Now that Four’s more colorful secret is out, Vio wants to conduct an… informal experiment to better understand the nature of the Four Sword. Legend, Wind, Twilight, and Warriors all help, and maybe learn a little bit about themselves in the process. (Humor & trauma mingle.)

    • Let's practice coloring dialogue.

    Oh no! That eyegore hit you harder than it looked, Green.

    It’s just a bruise. We can sleep it off.

    Why do we even have to pay for an inn!? Might as well just use that gnat hat we picked up and stay with some Minish.

    But what if it were to fall off in our sleep?

    Then we might squish them! That would be so sad…

    Why don’t we try to relax, guys? Take a breath and let Link do what he needs to!

    Fiiiiiine.
