A tribute to a friend
Today, the lovely Goosekee, also know as Goose, Kee, Copper, or a number of other things, deactivated. She did that because she felt that Tumblr was not conducive to her mental health, and she needed to focus on other parts of her life.
Her decision to deactivate is sad, but take solace in the fact that she is strong enough to put herself and her needs first. We here in the Hurricane family, LU Tumblr, and tumblr as a whole, thank a great friend, and amazing artist, and an awesome part of this community for her service.
Thank you for all you have done for us, Kee. These are for you:

16 17 18 for writers game โ๏ธ
16 (Where do you find inspiration to write): Real life! I write when I'm stress and that's probably why most of what I write is like...super angsty. But I also get inspiration from random unhinged things I see online sometimes!
17 (Tell us a fun fact about your current wip): I started a new story (not whumptober, imagine, I wonder why I'm behind in those...) today after I nearly got hit by a dump truck and it made me go Hold Up That Was Terrifying I Have An Idea
18 (Show us a piece of dialogue you really like): "It was...surreal. It was like some fantastical dream, and we were the heroes of a story that will literally go down in history. And I found myself thinking over and over, โhow is this my life?โ How did we get to be the people to save the world? And maybe that was a naรฏve and childish point of view, but somehow, I still felt like a kid back then. Back before I realized that a world that needed saving would always be a little bit broken." (Scrapped the story, but idk, I kinda liked this line)

Hi hi!! Ok speaking of โlosing-an-arm ficsโ
You are/were (?) a ninjago fan right?
โฆever read โskywalker syndromeโ by lloydskywalkers? Bc the brainrot from Squiggsโs last post is hitting hard ๐ญ
(Also I hope youโre having a lovely day!!)
I am indeed a ninjago fan! itโs just more of a side interest these days :)
and for starters YES I LOVE THAT FIC itโs soooo good ๐ญ and itโs funny actually you should mention the author...
Lloydskywalkers HEAVILY influenced my writing style and was one of the reasons I started writing fic, even though I never personally interacted with her (aside from one anon ask lol). If youโve read any of her other works my stuff is so heavily influenced by hers, she is one of my absolute favorite fanfic authors out there.

Wait now Iโm intrigued about the work and ship you mentioned ๐
(You totally donโt have to share if you donโt want to! I totally understand. But also I will say that just bc there isnโt much content or popularity about something, doesnโt mean itโs bad or people donโt like it! And that most definitely should not keep you from sharing something you put time/effort into!!)

It is Vio and Shadow from the Four Swords Manga!
And I hope you don't mind me taking a few minutes to explain who they are just so I can use this as a reference post for the future.
So if you're in the LU fandom you probably know that the LU colors are based off of the manga personalities. Green's the leader, Blue's angry, Red's kind, and Vio's smart. (all gross oversimplifications btw but it gets the main point across)
So the manga starts similar to the game, Shadow (working with Vaati and Ganon) captures Zelda, tricks Link into splitting, and takes over Hyrule Castle. But the plot diverges when the colors are split up, each ended up alone in areas designed to give them character development. And Vio just so happens to end up in a dark forest, where Shadow approaches him and asks him to join the forces of darkness and rule by Shadow's side.
Now, here's the thing that needs clarification. In the manga, Vio isn't only Link's smarts. He's also Link's ambition and his cunning, to the point where he's a shade of morally gray. So, Vio accepts Shadow's offer and switches sides.
But not really, since it turns out the whole thing was a ploy to get information out of Shadow. But uh oh Vio actually starts caring about Shadow, and when he inevitably has to betray Shadow, Vio feels rather guilty about it. (Don't know where to put this, but there's also a duel to the "death" with Green and a whole party where Shadow won't stop flirting with Vio, it's amazing)
After Shadow is betrayed and almost killed by Vio, he talks to Ganon, who is Not Happy that Shadow worked with a hero, and forces him to go back into the light. That's when he talks with Zelda, who tells Shadow that he can be a hero too, and it inspires Shadow to work with the heroes to defeat Vaati and Ganon. (Side note, he does that by shapeshifting to look like Vio, and there's a lot to unpack about that)
Shadow sacrifices himself to stop Vaati and save Hyrule by breaking the source of his power. Vio seems to be the most affected by his decision, kneeling beside Shadow after he falls down and cradling the sparks that Shadow turns into.
It is perfectly done enemies to friends to lovers with the perfect balance angst, and fluff and a top tier character dynamic (bad boy x nerd). It is amazing, and I love them so much.
(That is official artwork on the inside cover of the manga. The creators 100% ship it)

Weak (for the ask game!!)
You would not believe how much I use the word โweaklyโ
...
โDo not move captain, Iโll be right back,โ Impa commanded him, and Link gave a weak nod, the nightโs events finally catching up to him. He let Mask press a cloth heโd somehow procured up against his throat, and let out a hiss of pain.
