Across Time is a collaborative Zelink timeline project which aims to highlight each and every Zelink incarnation’s game by game relationship with the help of artist and writer contributors.This event will function similarly to a ‘fandom week’ event, except it will last for approximately three weeks—focusing on one incarnation per day. Each game will have 2 contributors responsible for composing a work of their assigned incarnation; likewise, collaborations between artists and writers may emerge.Contributor works will be compiled and posted accordingly on Across Time’s social media accounts (Ao3, Instagram, Twitter & Tumblr) during this event period. To add, an accessible digital zine will be published at the end of the event as a compiled archive of this project’s works—for both contributors and fans alike to keep as a souvenir.To note, this project is entirely SFW and is currently invite-only; this project is not for-profit and is purely a passion-based initiative.

MaqiiHead Art, Design & Social Media Mod"Hi, I love Zelink and Dark Link a normal amount... especially Dark Link..."

ZeldaElmoWriting Mod"Hi, I'm ZeldaElmo! I'm known for playful Zelink stories, but I have a knack for gut-punching last lines, too. You'll find stories for nearly all LoZ games on my Ao3!"

JimmyAssistant Art & Design Mod"Skyward Sword Zelink holds a special place in my heart. I am very honored and grateful to have made such amazing and talented friends in the Zelda fandom!"

TessAssistant Writing Mod"Avid Zelinker in all games. Fanfic writer and cosplayer. A silly little jester who's bad at video games but plays them anyway!"

MouseLayout Mod"Hello Mouse here! Big Zelda fan for like 100 years now (since the 90s). Honored to be adopted by the Zelink community, and excited to make fun art alongside talented creators!"
