- Fluff
- One Shot
- Four (Linked Universe) Has a Bad Time
- Four (Linked Universe) Angst
- Four (Linked Universe) Splits into the Colors
- Legend (Linked Universe) Swears
- Minor Injuries
- Green & Wind & Time are slightly less prominent
- Green is unwittingly causing shenanigans
- all the other colors are Suffering
- until the end where Red is very abruptly having a VERY good time
- Vio never has a good time in this fic
- Blue is also going through it but more humorously
- a few miscellaneous swears here and there
- Minor Violence but not Graphic

- Wind (Linked Universe) Swears
- Blue (Linked Universe) Swears
- BAMF Wind (Linked Universe)
- Wind (Linked Universe) Splits into the Forecasts
- secret reveal
- Crack Treated Seriously
- Wind’s situation + Vio Thoughts gives Green a personal revelation and a small breakdown
- implied past Vio/Shadow
- most of Wind is having a bad time except for one irrepressible guy
- also there’s blood but it’s all monster blood
- a lot of monster blood actually
- my usual air of tragicomedy is well underway
- boss monster bash
- Wind (Linked Universe) Angst
- Four (Linked Universe) is a Good Brother
- POV Blue (Linked Universe)
- Wind (Linked Universe)-centric
- the angst is pretty mild i think
- it’s the old ‘does this shield mean that Wind and Four are related trope’ BUT
- we leave it ambiguous (leaning ‘probably not’) as to if Four & Wind are actually related
- it’s more about the talk and the bond they have regardless
- also like in Lavender & Air the other three colors mostly just show up at the end to have opinions
- Grandpa Smith said that it’s Blue’s turn with the narrative
- also implied Vidow and Dot/Red
- also aroace Blue
- Angst
- Sky (Linked Universe) is a Good Brother
- people really sleep on Sky’s (aggressive) relationship with shields
- Red & Blue are mostly here in implication
- Vio shows up for a chat at the end
- not as rip-roaring hilarious as some of our other writing
- this one’s about identity grief & the frustration of not remembering things that ‘you’ should
- POV Legend (Linked Universe)
- Legend (Linked Universe) Being a Little Shit
- Warriors (Linked Universe) Being a Little Shit
- (for a few minutes)
- (Four isn’t the only one that splits)
- just here to shove these boys into a four-section apple slicer and then under a microscope
- puppy doggie
- the author is plural
- mild angst and humor mingle
- Twilight (Linked Universe) is a Good Brother
- Four (Linked Universe) Whump
- Red (Linked Universe) Needs a Hug
- portals mess up Four trope
- some swearing per usual
- the rest of the chain is also here
- rated T for Twilight’s Great Fairies Don’t Wear Shirts (nonsexual & played for humor)
- per usual the other colors are here in implication
- Fluff and Angst
- Angst with a Happy Ending
- Emotional Whump
- Mental Health Issues
- Origin Story
- Four Splits into the Colors (Linked Universe)
- Extended Character Study
- Sword Spirit Four (Linked Universe)
- Minor Character Death
- It Gets Worse Before It Gets Better
- CHs will have content notes when relevant
- slowburn storytelling
- proceed with care
- Four (Linked Universe) Needs a Hug
- author is plural
- this is cut content from the middle of the story
- so it does have a melancholy ending
- it's not canon to the au but we like the vibes
- Comedy
- Animal Transformation
- Shadow crystal
- Legend is Soft for Hyrule (Linked Universe)
- all the other Links show up but not for long (Wind gets one line)
- sky does spend most of the story as a bug but he has some agency!
- yay buttersky!
- groozelink happens at the end
- implied raviolink
- Fi spends the whole story in a magical storage dimension lol
- legend just wanted a nap man
- Protective Legend (Linked Universe)
- Legend (Linked Universe) Angst
- BAMF Four (Linked Universe)
- BAMF Legend (Linked Universe)
- Temporary Character Death
- Major Character Resurrection

- yeah that’s right fucking Agahnim shows up
- bet you never see him in fic!
- one by one by one by one
- palace of the four sword here we goooooo
- (the fix-it half of the fic is NOT finished yet)
- (so hold off if that would make you sad)
- POV Warriors (Linked Universe)
- POV Wild (Linked Universe)
- usual brand of bittersweet fluff
- blue & red are hanging out
- Linked Universe
- everyone knows about Wolfie here
- this one is just a puff of silly fluff
- no sad this time!
Summary

A timeline of fics from an AU where Four is a system, and the Four Sword works ever-so-slightly differently from the usual expected canon. Many thanks to our friends who've supported us while writing these works, and to Jilli for beta-ing while she was able!
