"Long lost memories are hidden behind his dreams. Memories that part of him wants to bring to the waking world, but sometimes squeeze him too tightly. And while I can't help him remember them, the least I can do is loosen their grip."
Twilight knows Wild's dreams are sometimes troubled. Animals pick up on these things. So on nights when he's awake and he hears the boy whimper, the partial weight of a furry body and a head to pet soothes Wild's scattered soul.
I was inspired by a certain movie scene to draw this a year ago. Twilight is in my opinion the heart of the group. Should another of his kin be suffering, he does anything he can to help. Emotional support wolf included.
Forgive me if the words read a bit odd. Writing isn't my strongest talent and I'm tired.

Was inspired by @smilesrobotlover to draw my Links with their horses. These were supposed to be doodles, but alas, I always make things harder on myself. 😂
Tumblr media
Reading from left to right, we have Warrior, Twilight, Time, and Wild. All of them have to be horse girls in some way.
If I was to choose a favorite, I'd go with Twilight. The pulled back lips are great 🤣
Used Spirit: Stallion of the Cimarron as reference (especially for the bottom two).

the first working comic ref of many (faints) featuring wild! the newest counselor for camp hyrule. what a loser /aff
text transcription + notes below for those who cannot read my wonky handwriting:
HOH in both ears
due to most of the counselors sharing first names, the campers have given them (the chain) all nicknames.
archery station
cook (for some reason, they find joy in cooking for 45 people every morning for 2 months).
survivalist classes (usually a dual lesson done with hyrule)
has a working theory with four about time's funding for the camp (yes, this is the theory about tax fraud joked about in the test page).
newest counselor (although this is their second year at camp)
helps twilight out with the trail rides sometimes
tablet is only used when without hearing aids and/or with someone who does not use sign.
embroidered shorts are optional, especially in comic pages
all of the embroidery was done by him, although they aren't very fond of the uniform because the fabric is scratchy (undershirts are a must). can be commonly seen out of uniform, even during the camp classes. always wears his id though.
despite being the newest counselor, he made quick friends with the others even though they weren't ever an actual camper. he applied 2 years ago for the position when it was offered (time thought another link was Hilarious).
as said before, he and four have a theory about time and his funding for the camp, this consists of many internet searches and late-night ramblings in the counselor's cabin. they're frequently told off by an exasperated twilight, but a majority of the chain enjoy hearing any new findings about the owner of the camp.
fluent in ASL (or HSL [hylian/hyrulian sign language], which is the equivalent for such in-universe because i am learning and can actually put it to use). a majority of the counselors are at speaking-level in such, barring wind who is very early on in learning.
the ids are made of paper and stuck in a laminated sheet and then stuck on a lanyard. it isn't pictured in his reference sheet, but wild has a teal colored lanyard (very similar to the teal/blue on their bag + shorts).

may i ask why ppl hate caleo so much? I'm reading ToA rn so idk if it's based on stuff that happens there, but in HoO I didn't really catch anything that would make it this "don't touch with a ten foot pole" ship, yk?
/gen
Hi !! Thanks for sending this in. I feel like I and others have kinda gone through some things in the anti-caleo tag, but I'm gonna go through some of the reasons with as much textual evidence and objectivity as possible. (minus my inevitable unorganized rambles, they're contextually relevant, stop looking at me--)
That being said, this is completely a matter of opinion, as all shipping is. I don't mean to say that you are "allowed" to ship or that you're "stupid" for shipping xyz, I couldn't care less what you ship--let's all just be nice to each other.
That being said, let's start with the two most common reasons why most people dislike caleo:
1.) the age gap
2.) their "bickering to lovers" dynamic is not written well/they seem to dislike each other/etc
The easier one to start with would be the age gap. Now (warnings for rent-lowering gunshots around my blog), I meant what I said when I said I don't care about ships. Most of my beloved mutuals ship the nastiest shit imaginable, and I am very anti-censorship (but that's several other posts). I generally have preferences for healthy ships when it comes to a Fluffy Endgame (dark fics with toxic ships are different to me).
That being said, I don't typically enjoy ships with a large age gap, and most other people find them unappealing as well. I could be persuaded with some (nipollo and rachel/apollo, i'm looking at you), but caleo just kinda grosses me out in this regard, probably due to other aspects of their relationship.
(Some people say she's "mentally fifteen", but I don't really buy that--if she were like a faerie or something, maybe, but I see her more as Edward in Twilight--looks young but has wisdom beyond her years. There's no definitive answer on this so it's not something I would like to debate (none of this is lol) but I thought I would mention it anyways.)
Although your question is about ToA, I'm only going to cover HoH through the first ToA book, because I'm still reading through the ToA books (though I know the big spoilers). I know caleo takes on a bigger role in the second book so i might come back and do a part two to uh...complain about their dynamic more? lol
so, without further ado--
The House of Hades
So, this is the first impression we get of Calypso from Leo's perspective--the highlights to keep this from being 1 million years long (it still will be lol)--
"She looked maybe fifteen, about Leo's age, and, sure, she was pretty; but with that angry expression on herface she reminded Leo of every popular girl in every school he'd ever attended—the ones who made fun of him, gossiped a lot, thought they were so superior, and basically did everything they could tomake his life miserable.Leo disliked her instantly.
---
The girl clenched her fists. Leo was pretty sure she was going to march down the crater and punch him in the face.
---
"Show yourself!" the girl yelled at the sky, completely ignoring Leo. "It's not bad enough I am exiled? It's not bad enough you take away the few good heroes I'm allowed to meet? You think it's funny to send me this—this charbroiled runt of a boy to ruin my tranquility? This is NOT FUNNY! Take him back!""
--pg 213 of The House of Hades pdf.
Now, keeping in mind that I read this for the first time at 13 and he was my book boyfriend (Or Whatever), I was not a fan of this, but even now that I've grown out of that, this still rings unfavorable to me.
He compares her to his bullies, the ones who made fun of him and created insecurities within him. And, making no effort to clear her name from this association, what is one of the first things she does? Screams at the gods for sending someone so conventionally unattractive. One of Leo's biggest insecurities in the books is not being as conventionally attractive or built as the other guys in the seven. One of his other insecurities is not having a girlfriend when everyone else is coupled up. So the solution is not to have him learn self-love and/or the love of friends, but to instead give him a girlfriend--the build-up time of which is short and intense. Not only that, but his love interest insults one of his biggest insecurities.
We're off to a great start.
Of course, I can't really blame Calypso for being pissed about the wreckage and about being sent another hero instead of being freed from the island. I would be pretty pissed, too, but she still treats him pretty badly, seemingly because he's not the "right" hero.
(For this next bit I am going through their time together in House of Hades and just noting anything that rings as a red flag to me--which is not a stretch as it's pretty much every other line lol. The brackets [] add context for dialogue, the parentheses () is my commentary, though most of these speak for themselves imo)
""Oh-gee-gee-ah." The girl pronounced it slowly, as if Leo were five years old.
---
She looked like she was about to answer but stopped herself. "It doesn't matter. You'll be gone soon. You're obviously a mistake."
That was harsh, Leo thought.He'd spent enough time thinking he was a mistake—as a demigod, on this quest, in life in general. He didn't need a random crazy goddess reinforcing the idea
---
"What am I supposed to do, then? Sit in the sand dunes until I die?" [Leo asked]
"That would be fine...." The girl threw down her trowel and cursed at the sky. "Except I suppose he can't die here, can he? Zeus! This is not funny!"
---
She looked the same age as him, but he wondered how old she really was. (age gap thing, delicious!)
---
"Would you be sweet," [Calypso said], "if they laughed at you by sending another hero, but a hero who looked like—like you?"
---
"Three thousand." Leo's mouth felt tingly, like he'd just eaten Pop Rocks. "Uh, you look good for three thousand."
---
"And now...the worst insult of all. The gods mock me by sending you." [Calypso said]
Anger bubbled in Leo's stomach.Yeah, typical. If Jason were here, Calypso would fall all over him. She'd beg him to stay, but he'd be all noble about returning to his duties, and he'd leave Calypso brokenhearted. That magic raft would totally arrive for him. (heartbreaking to hear about leo's insecurities but also...he is so gay for jason jdskjfs--)
But Leo? He was the annoying guest she couldn't get rid of. She'd never fall for him, because she was totally out of his league.
---
Despite the gifts, Calypso obviously didn't want to see him. One time he poked his head inside the cave and she freaked out, yelling and throwing pots at his head. (how to treat an abuse survivor 101)
Yeah, she was definitely on Team Leo. (this honestly just reminds me of the Echo scene and, honestly, I'd ship him with Echo Big Time over calypso)
He ended up pitching a more permanent camp near the footpath, where the beach met the hills.That way he was close enough to pick up his meals, but Calypso didn't have to see him and go into a pot-throwing rage.
---
"They are completely fireproof," Calypso promised. "They'll stay clean and expand to fit you,should you ever become less scrawny." (the prev part about her repairing the clothes was actually sweet in a platonic way...could have gone without the body-shaming !)
---
Then he remembered that this annoying fifteen-year-old girl was actually the immortal daughter of a Titan."
--pages 214-227 of The House of Hades pdf
Now, at this point I'll say that their relationship actually becomes quite sweet once they get past the frankly horrible section of time where they want each other to die. They're both lonely, they come to some understanding...I suppose this is a matter of opinion, but the romance aspect does feel forced. Time is different in Ogygia so it's hard to say how long Leo was there, if I were to estimate I'd say 3 weeks, but given that it's like 19 pages (and the text is larger on the pdf copy lol), it does feel rushed. Man do I wish they went for the platonic angle, but Richard could never.
The Blood of Olympus
Everyone's favorite book! lmao.
Now that our lovebirds are in Lovebird Territory (i guess), the amount of toxicity dwindles, but let's bite:
"'Sit tight, Sunshine,' he told Calypso's picture. 'I'll get back to you, just like I promised.'
Leo could imagine her response: 'I am not waiting for you, Leo Valdez. I am not in love with you.And I certainly don't believe your foolish promises!' The thought made him smile. (I guess this is supposed to be sarcastic, but way to reintroduce the concept of her really not liking him?)"
--pg 64 of The Blood of Olympus pdf
So, most of this book has mentions of Calypso from Leo's pov, and I gotta say (forgetting entirely that this doc is supposed to at least try to be subjective)...they neutered my boy. I often don't reread past MoA because of the caleo content, though what glimpses I've seen shows that his pov has experienced a massive shift. I think having so little page time and such an intense relationship buildup causes some readers to dislike how fundamentally she alters Leo's pov.
Additionally, I've seen some posts about Leo's suicide ideation. That is not something I want to go in depth about on this post, but I did want to draw attention to this excerpt I caught:
"Now the Argo II was approaching the end of its voyage. Leo's whole life – his childhood with Tía Callida; his mother's death in that warehouse fire; his years as a foster kid; his months at Camp Half-Blood with Jason and Piper – all of it would culminate tomorrow morning in one final battle.
He opened the access panel. Festus's voice creaked over the intercom.
'Yeah, buddy,' Leo agreed. 'It's time.'
More creaking.
'I know,' Leo said. 'Together till the end?'
Festus squeaked affirmatively.
Leo checked the ancient bronze astrolabe, which was now fitted with the crystal from Ogygia. Leo could only hope it would work.
'I will get back to you, Calypso,' he muttered. 'I promised on the River Styx.'
He flipped a switch and brought the navigation device online. He set the timer for twenty-four hours.
Finally he opened the engine's ventilator line and pushed inside the vial of the physician's cure. It disappeared into the veins of the ship with a decisive thunk.
'Too late to turn back now,' Leo said.
He curled on the floor and closed his eyes, determined to enjoy the familiar hum of the engine for one last night."
--pg 224 of The Blood of Olympus pdf
I'm not going to draw any definitive conclusions on the subtext of this or his plan with the physician's cure, but I will say Leo definitely needs therapy and the support of his friends over his want of a girlfriend. (And I'd say this regardless of ships--even if it were my beloved valdangelo. If Leo's mental health isn't addressed, it just makes it seem like a lazy fix-all)
I'm not going to pretend to be the best writer or understand character arcs better than our good friend Richard, but I think one of the reasons why Leo's character arc failed in this final installment is that Leo got what he wanted instead of what he needed. The best character arcs will display what a character wants, but by the end of the journey, a character will realize what they really need.
For example, in Gravity Falls (great show btw), towards the end of the series, Mabel wants to stay in a magical bubble created as a trick by Bill Cipher so she can stay in Gravity Falls forever. In the end, however, she realizes that what she really needs is to go back home to California with her brother, where they can get through high school with the support of each other.
If Leo had undergone an arc in which he really wants a girlfriend, but later realizes he needs to love himself first, that would have been really great and nice for kids to see that they don't need a significant other to make them whole.
Additionally--surprisingly--there were no glaring red flags for the rest of this book. They have a general vibe of "she doesn't really like him and he's a silly little guy" that I feel like is just rick pulling a "can I copy your homework?" with percabeth but it came out Wrong, but that's a matter of opinion.
ToA: The Hidden Oracle
""Here you go." Leo handed her a glass of lemonade. His expression seemed darker and more anxious, as if...Ah, of course. Leo had rescued Calypso from her prison island. In doing so, Calypso had lost her powers. Leo felt responsible."
--pg 239 of The Hidden Oracle pdf
This seems like something they'd have to work through, which is possible, but also a very intense thing to put on a relationship between an already traumatized 16 year old (and his over 3000 year old girlfriend, etc.) I suppose if this was written through in a thoughtful way I'd understand, but it's kind of one of those things that makes me look at them and go...realistically, at best I see them lasting 6 months to a year.
(tbh a lot of the ships outside of percabeth don't seem to have that...well, percabeth longevity--i mean just look at how jiper broke up. not that Richard would break caleo up atp, of course...unless...)
Final Thoughts (unless I return after finishing ToA but no promises)
And so, we conclude. I think I learned some stuff by revisiting canon instead of just remaining amongst online fandom & my memory of canon. Honestly, I can see why people would like this ship--I still hate it the most out of any pjo ship, but I gotta admit it had its sweet moments. Just as I pointed out red flags and had opinions stated as subjective, other people could point out what they consider green flags and why they think the ship is great.
To conclude (my English teachers quaking in their boots rn), myself and other caleo haters dislike the ship due to the age difference, the rushed nature, and the enemies to lovers dynamic being written in a way that ultimately gives the energy that our love birds do not like each other. I hope this dive into the foundation of their relationship clarifies some of these things for you, and thanks for the ask!

Time and Twilight never really told anyone about their familial connection, but it doesn’t take a genius to see the similarities.
Still messing with Twi’s new design. I think I’ll keep the forehead mark and tattoos on his arm.

Do you have any ideas for the sign names Shatterproof Sky gives the chain and himself?
Yeah I have some ideas! Nothing concrete because I'm pretty sure Hylian sign language would be different from American (and I'm not Deaf/HoH so I'm not going give them specific signs) but! Sky would avoid combat- or disability-related names, I think, because he doesn't want to be defined by those traits of his and he does to others what he wants for himself.
And all of these, of course, preclude the fact that inside jokes or something would make their way into names or nicknames! I don't know how common that is but I think it could be a thing with this group.
Wars has two: the one he uses at home, given by the girl he first learned sign from, and the one he uses around the Chain. The first incorporates a sign for writing or list-making, because that was one of his main traits. Sky offered to give him a second, and he took up the offer. The second has to do with a scarf. :)
Wind's would be about wind, maybe with a bit of music in there, like a sign for leaves or a conductor.
Wild's name references his herbalist tendencies, with something about plants or knives. I like the knives actually, chopping and intimidating. XD
Four's would have to do with weapons, probably something about repairing them, since I feel like that would be his main role and first impression in the group.
For Time, I think maybe Sky might use Wars's name for him, at least at first (described in salad of heroes, where the name is a mask reference.) But then they might come up with a new one with armor or something, just because the mask one is a bit old and not necessarily relevant anymore.
Twilight's is about his forehead tattoos, and I don't think they'd find much reason to change it. Wars might try to change it to wolf ears or something, in jest, but that doesn't stick.
Legend's, of course, references all his jewelry and tools. And that never goes away. XD
I think Hyrule's might change several times. He's very unassuming, and wouldn't see his sign name anyway, so for a while it's probably just half-spelled out. Once he and Wars figure out a bit more of their tactile sign, though, Sky would come up with something that can be done in that way or not, perhaps referencing freckles or magic in a subtle way.

Oki doki, another rant! So if you haven't heard, illumination (the people who made minions, Mario movie, etc..) have partnered up with Nintendo to make a Zelda movie.(I’m pretty sure? That’s what my friend said) Now my opinion on this- based off the way illuminations handled Mario, (it was a good movie i enjoyed it!) they kinda made up their own story, which no biggie- Mario didn’t really have a storyline/plot like Zelda, you just needed to get through levels, save whoever or whatever, and that’s the game. (Apologies if there is more too it, I’m not in the fandom nor played many Mario games) but Zelda has this semi-complex story, and if they were to officially make one, like give teasers or say out loud to the public, “hey! We’re making a Zelda movie!” I’d love to see like, ocarina of time, windwaker, twilight Princess, skyward sword, or even breath of the wild! Because they all had such amazing story’s and plots in them. (I realized i literally cannot pick between any games that I’d like to see a movie made of cause their all so good) but, wind waker would fit their style, and also one of my personal favorite games! Just the only thing I’m praying to god they do is not make link talk, only time he really talks was in the show, but that was in 1986. It’s his thing, he doesn’t talk and shows that actions are louder than words, and that’s what i love about him! And if they could even go the extra 100,000 miles- animate him using ASL. I know they’d never do it, or even think about it, but the pure amount of happiness I’d get (and many others!) just seeing some representation from big movie producers actually doing that would blow my mind. (Some day we will get some representation..!) I’m not deaf or HOH, i use ASL when i cannot speak. (Non-speaking episodes) but honestly- after watching the Mario movie, i said to my dad, “they need to make a Zelda movie now!” And welp, now they probably will. But i swear to GOD if Chris pratt voice acts link, all hell will break lose from me. (Nothing wrong with him, he’s an awesome actor!) i literally will just lose my shit.
TLDR;
i Hope (if) illuminations makes a Zelda movie, it’s decent. And that it’s of any Zelda game and doesn’t change key elements of the game/storyline or any characters key characteristics.
