Author's note: If you read the chapter title then yeah. This one is gonna be a roller later as I need to bring closure to something that started this season and something that has been planned since season 1. Not to mention this is pretty much my make up Valentine's day episode. Remember if we have no dares or truths by the next episode we will be doing my plan B for episode 16 of this season. First review is from Generic Smash Bros Fan.

"1: those in the hades team are: Akechi, Akuma and Bass. There are not many people, now that I think about it. I guess you'll have something in mind.
2: I think you forgot coco on your list of residents
3: a question: is there a non-video game character that tried to enter the mansion but was automatically denied? (out of cameras. obviously)
4: another question: the first non-playable characters you put in the story (tails, Bandana Dee, Decidueye, Shovel knight, etc.) were they also interviewed to be residents?"

1: Actually that's all I'm putting in for Hades' team. He wants to be serious and he needed some powerful people willing to bring the island to its knees. I have separate plans for all of them when the movie comes around.
2: Coco is in the mansion, if I forgot to put her on my profile I'll do that right away.
3: No because if that's the case Kapp'n just passed over there worlds. Only reason Escargoon showed up in seasons 1 and 2 was because I decided to combine the Kirby canon and anime. Cassidy and Butch was for my own enjoyment. But I don't think I'm gonna make anymore exceptions.
4: No they were not interviewed Master Hand just handpicked then as they all had a chance to become a fighter.
Next review is from Charmander17

"Thanks for using my pun earlier it means a lot.
By the way why do the smashers have beef with the psallstars? Oh and when will the younger smashers be ungrounded feel a little bad my idea made that happen oh well master hand could talk to toon link if necessary."

No problem. And as far as the beef goes let's just say they felt like Sony was trying to copy them. And the younger smashers were actually ungrounded offscreen last month. Next review is from ultimateCCC.

"Lucario's Aura will pick it up soon.
Have I already told you about Villager and Isabelle?"

Yes, and when Lucario does it will probably be too late. And yes you've asked me about those two before and my answer is still the same. Which is no I will not be shipping them in this story. Next review is from Derick Lindsey.

"Poor Kasumi being brainwashed by Hades but at least she initially said no to his offer even if she felt hurt by the Phantom Thieves lying to her about their memories. I laughed at how Master Hand reacted to finding out Sans became a resident at the mansion knowing how much he didn't want him in as well as including my joke about Morgana being forced on Mario if he doesn't relax and go to sleep. Should have expected that the Male Byleth failed to save his dad in one universe where as the Female one succeeded as a counter to Male Robin being successful in fighting off Grima but the Female failed and do they have a specific house they lead over or no? Now that everyone knows about what Hades and co are up to they can prepare for the upcoming battle and hopefully stop whatever Hades is planning."

Byleth is the professor of the Black Eagles while Blythe is the professor of the Golden Deer. And thank you for the dares or truths you gave. It's quite a lot but I may have to cut that one for Bowser Jr. out since he probably won't know what the Simpsons is. Also, I don't even watch that show. And that last one is a bit technical but I could make it work. It's a lot to work with but it may still not be enough. I may come up with some dares and truths myself if I feel like it.

Now before we get started there's something I need to bring into attention. I am currently stuck in my home in Florida as I don't really have anywhere to go due to the whole thing. I should have more time to write now as long as I don't have too many personal problems or playing Animal Crossing: New Horizons.

And something else I've brought up about doing was the community. I will be going forth and putting it up on . If any of you want to write a story that takes place in the same universe as this one that is fine with me. Just be sure to let me know so I can put it in the community. That is all


Season 5 episode 14: Problems with Love
(March 21st, 2020)(10:00 PM)

"You can't just come based on what fuel you do have," said a certain champion into his phone. Which he got when he first came to the mansion. Strangely enough he was wearing dress pants, as well as button down shirt and vest. "Alright fine, we'll see you in a bit." Link then turned off his phone.

"What did Fox say," Zelda asked. And once again strangely enough she was in a simple dress.

"He can pick us up but he has to fuel up his Landmaster first. It's gonna be about fifteen minutes," Link replies. And Zelda sighed in disappointment. "I should've checked the bus times earlier."

"Guess you should've," Zelda said.

Link (Champion of Hyrule): *a circle shows up in the top right corner of the camera recording for the head segment* Okay, I know what you're thinking. Oh my gosh when did this happen, why is the episode starting here? Honestly, I don't know why either. What happened is a long story, and in order for you all to understand it we're gonna have to backtrack. Can you take the footage back to what happened at I believe 5:00 PM. *camera footage rewinds to said time* Stop! Okay that's good. Get it going. *circle disappears*


5:00 PM

Link was currently in the game room playing on the Nintendo 64 solo. Young Link returned to the mansion yesterday and recommended Ocarina of Time to the champion. As the game helped shape future Zelda games. Link was going to fight the next boss of the game when a piece of paper was handed out in front of him. "Hey, Link I have a favor I need to ask of you." Link looked up to see Tifa to be the one handing him the note.

"And what would this favor be," Link said as he hit the save button on his game before turning off the 64. "This won't be like last time where I had to pry a dagger off of Pichu right?"

"No this isn't like that, still don't know how she even got that thing," Tifa said, slightly worried for the tiny mouse pokemon. "I just need you to hand this note over to Zelda." She pointed to said princess of Hyrule at one of the couches within the room.

"And.. you can't do that yourself," Link asked, suspicious of where this would go. There was a slight blush on his cheeks.

"Just do it please, it's embarrassing for me to ask her," Tifa said shoving the paper into Link. "Just give it to her and don't tell her it was from me. Or do you want to flip again."(1) With that the girl left the game room in a hurry.

Rolling his eyes at the antics the champion decided to suck it up. The champion walked over to Zelda and the princess of Hyrule took notice of him. "Oh, hey Link. Do you need anything," Zelda asked.

Link felt any confidence he had gone away immediately and sheepishly said, "This is for you." Zelda took the piece of paper and saw the princess's cheeks go a bit red. Guess it was an embarrassing question.

"Well you got out with me? -Link," Zelda said. Link suddenly froze, the paper said what. Did he just get tricked by Tifa?! "Um I'm free at seven o'clock. We can go then," Zelda said nervously.

At a loss of words the champion quickly nodded saying, "Yep, that is perfect. I-I-I'll see you then." With that Link quickly left the game room with one goal in mind before seven. Questioning Tifa into the ground.

Link: Though my mind has yet to completely process this at the time. Tifa has tricked me into setting Zelda and myself up on a date. I knew I was in for a rollercoaster.


Since his interview Eliwood had become a permanent resident of the mansion. While Roy has gotten used to his father being at the mansion he was still worried about one thing. How he would react to his relationship with Lilina. The two had been dating before the Ultimate tournament starting in July and Eliwood was not yet aware of it.

The young lion knew he would have to tell his father at some point. The only problem he felt was that if he were to be married to Lilina the only way it could happen if the two kingdoms in his world united. And Roy knew his father wouldn't be too keen on that idea. He would have to plan the speech carefully and planned on having it done by next week.

What he didn't account for was the number of people who already knew and were pushing him to tell Eliwood. One being Phoenix, who found out on Thanksgiving, and the other being his former roommate, Chrom. The two have both told Roy that he should tell his father but so far no progress has been made headway. Though Chrom had inadvertently tried to help at one point, which caused Eliwood to have a conversation with Roy about relationships and marriage, Roy still didn't tell him.

The young prince decided enough was enough and was walking over to the living room right now to confront Roy on the issue. And sure enough the young lion was there lying down on one of the couches within the room, asleep. "And he didn't do this in his own room because," Chrom questioned to himself as he walked over to Roy. Chrom then flicked Roy in the nose.

While it wasn't much, it had caused Roy to be startled awake. "Ah- What?!" Roy looked around to eventually have his eyes land on Chrom. Pinching his nose the young lion asked, "Why did you wake me up Chrom, I was sleeping for a reason."

"Because I decided enough was enough," Chrom sternly said the the young lion. Who was confused at what Chrom was saying due to the lack of context. "You're telling your father about you and Lilina today Roy."

Roy's eyes went wide with fear. "Chrom no please. I want to try and tell my father about this on my own terms. Not someone else's!" Roy got off the couch and attempted to stop the prince of Ylisse.

"Then you may want to tell him tonight or someone else will," Chrom said. "You can't keep running from your father Roy, it will only hurt you in the long-run."

"I know but I just feel like I can't."

"Because you're afraid of facing your father on such a matter?!"

"Because I'm afraid he won't allow the relationship!" There was a stunned silence from Chrom, the young prince was silently cursing himself if he caused this from past experiences. "You didn't allow Robin and Lucina to marry at first. I'm worried that my father would do the same thing." The young lion sat down on the couch with a flop, seeming defeated. "I'm scared of what he would say."

"And reason why you'd be scared of such a thing," Chrom asked as he sat down on the same couch, next to Roy.

"Well, in order for me and Lilina to get married we would have to unite our kingdom and thiers into one," Roy sadly said. "It's a lot of land to rule over and we're not as advanced as here or Earth. It may not work."

Eliwood (Lord of Pharae): Combining kingdoms? Well… it's possible but it would be a hard transition for both sides considering the possibility of contrasting laws. Whole process of easing into things would take about maybe five years at least.

Chrom didn't look at Roy for a good minute. It's a good reason, sure, Ylisse probably was as big as Roy's kingdom if not smaller. "Well, I can tell you first hand that ruling over a big land as that would be difficult. But you could assign different lords over some areas of land to help you out. Everything has an eventual solution."

Roy sighed before saying, "Yeah I guess you're right. I can't put it off anymore I'll tell him. We just have to figure out where he is." With that the young lion left the living room.

"God on you Roy," Chrom said before following Roy out.

The camera then panned over to Sonic who was sitting on another couch. And had heard everything. "I'm gonna find another place to eat my chili dog." The hedgehog sped out of the room.


While Link may not know how to navigate himself across the mansion as well as he thought, he knew how to navigate himself to more frequented areas. This brought the champion to the lounge, where it actually was not so populated. As soon as finding Tifa sitting on the couch he walked right over shouting, "Tifa! What did you just do?!"

Tifa, knowing she had been caught, stood up and faced Link smirking before saying, "Got you a date. You're welcome by the way."

"I thought Lucina was the one that was compared to a cupid," Link said.

Lucina (Princess from a doomed future): Oh did Link say that? I am very flattered but I don't I would really see myself as a cupid. Now if you excuse me I have to try and get Orange and Blue back together. *leaves*

"True, and she was planning on doing this for you two. But she was already occupied with helping out Orange and Blue. So she asked and passed the job off to me," Tifa said. She then sat down on a stool next to the bar area, which had mostly soda since Master Hand banned alcohol in the mansion. "And I've been on a date before, meaning I know exactly what to do."

"So let me get this straight," Link said, pinching his nose in frustration. "By taking over Lucina's job you're going to. Set up a date, have us spend the night with each other, try to get one of us, mainly me, to confess feelings to the other, and hope it doesn't destroy the friendship we had in the end? And you're going to do that all by yourself?"

"No faith huh, you know I could flip you again if I wanted to," Tifa said with slight offense. Sonic was now walking into the room. "And I'm not going to be helping you alone. Cloud!"

"Why are you bringing me into this," Cloud muttered, as he was sinking into the couch. The ex-SOLDIER had been there the whole time and Link never noticed.

"Because your Link's friend."

"So exactly what will you two be doing," Link asked the two.

"Well while Cloud will be giving you advice via comlink I snatched from Snake. I'll be manipulating the scenes to hopefully make things work," Tifa explained. Both Link and Cloud has a feeling this was already taking a turn for the worse. And once again Sonic was hearing all of it.

Sonic (Fastest animal alive): Valentine's Day was last month everyone. I know we didn't have the annual dance this time, but can we please not talk about love endeavors a month late. Doesn't help I'm already having my own problems(2).

"So when did you and Zelda say you were going to meet up," Tifa asked. After Link told her and Cloud the time she dragged the champion out of the room. Cloud followed behind with Sonic still staying on the couch.


Speaking of Lucina helping Orange and Blue. The princess, while advised to not move around much due to being seven months into the pregnancy. She couldn't really wear any of her clothes from home anymore so Master Hand was quick to supply her closet with casual clothes that would fit(3).

With Lucina was Orange as they were looking around for Blue. "Do you really think we're ready to reconnect like this Lucina," Orange asked as the two continued to walk down the hall.

"Orange it has been four months since he came back. I'm sure you two are ready, I can tell you both still love each other," Lucina said.

"Well, yeah, but you're not exactly in the best condition to do this right now with the whole pregnancy thing. In fact you should probably be in your room."

"I will be once we have you two taken care of," Lucina insisted as the two turned into the practice room. Lucina was suddenly confused as she said, "Wait, I was aiming for the arcade room. Where did I make the wrong turn?"

"We're actually not on the same floor as the arcade room, remember this is the first floor," Orange said.

"And you didn't tell me because.."

"I was trying to prove a point that you're not one to be walking around right now."

Lucina had facepalmed before saying, "Come on, let's find the elevator." With that the two left the room. And passed by Kasumi on their way back to the elevator. The phantom thief had taken out a notepad and wrote both Lucina's and Orange's names under leverage. She then continued on her way.


Wanting to get back into the swing of the mansion life Master Hand decided to set up a box in the dining room. What the box was for was anyone's guess. All it said was 'put truths or dares in here'. There was a stack of flashcards next to the box. Many were confused as to why the man of the mansion decided to do this, but some still put flashcards in there(4).

"What's the point of it though," Shadow had rhetorically asked as Sonic wrote something on a flashcard before putting it in. The blue hedgehog really is everywhere at once in this episode "It's just a mindless game meant to destroy relationships not put them back together."

"People said the same thing about Super Mario Party and yet we had a blast last week," Sonic said. The two then heard the two window partitions into the kitchen open up and food was beginning to be placed on one of them. "Guess it's leftover buffet night."

Wario (Greedy Microgamer): Oh this night is the best. This is the first time it's been caught on camera but buffet night, is self explanatory. It's just leftovers from all of the other dinners from Sunday to Friday during the week. Anything not eaten today will get thrown out. A lot of us enjoy it so few complain. Master Hand gives us the option to eat out on any night anyway if we chose.

Tifa Lockhart (Cloud's childhood friend): Yes, I chose the date for today since I knew it was the buffet night. A good number of residents go out to eat anyway, mainly the fast-food restaurants.

"Come get it while it's hot," Cilan called out from the kitchen to whoever was already in the dining room. An intercom announcement would be made soon. "Though to be fair, we could just heat it up again if anyone wants seconds."

"Maybe wait until a majority of residents have gotten the food," Dunban said. He then noticed the box that was out on the small table and was perplexed. "Now why does Master Hand want to do a truth or dare game?"

"I'm surprised you even heard of that game, given the circumstances behind your world," Kawasaki said in shock.

"We played it a bit as kids."

"Master Hand is trying to get himself used to mansion life again. I guess this is his way of doing it," Palutena said as she saw the box. She also had a very bad feeling about it. That bad feeling would only get worse when Kawasaki walked over to the box and wrote something. He then slipped it inside before returning to the kitchen. "So did you write a truth or dare?"

"A truth," Kawasaki said as he sat down on the small table in the kitchen. "I won't be telling as that would ruin the whole point of a locked box." That did not ease Palutena's worries one bit.

"Oh, I actually just remembered something," Cilan said. "I'm happy to announce that I will be moving into the invite residential building next week." The pokemon connoisseur grabbed some sodas out of the fridge and put them on the counter. "Master Hand decided to move me in there since I've made it clear I won't be leaving anytime soon."

"Well, congratulations to you," Dunban said as Kawasaki nodded. Palutena's worries only worsened. She couldn't help but feel like Master Hand was going to tell her she couldn't cook in the kitchen anymore at any minute.


Tifa had gotten Link all dressed up and ready to go and now had him waiting the foyer for Zelda. She had herself, and Cloud hidden and out of sight. The latter still not seeing the point in being a part of this. "Do we really have to follow them around."

"Of course we do. I'm not too fond of doing it either but Lucina asked me to do it. She's pretty set on this," Tifa said in defense. The princess from the doomed future wanted Tifa and Cloud to pull a Chrom.

"If what happened when Chrom did this is of any indication I think we want to walk away now while we're ahead,' Cloud retorted. Tifa then shushed the ex-SOLDIER as Zelda was walking down the stairs in the same dress she was in at the start of the episode. "I wonder if she got that dress herself."

Link was practically floored and was standing there frozen. "So are you ready to go?"

Link was still frozen and speechless until Cloud said, "Link stand there before you look like more of an idiot than you are right now." He got elbowed by Tifa for that."

"You look really nice," Link practically shouted for all of the mansion to hear. Zelda faced flushed at that.

Tifa Lockhart: Or they so obviously in love with each other it was practical torture hlalfway through everything.

"Thanks, you look good too," Zelda said to Link. The two then walked out of the mansion, with Tifa following after them. After getting Cloud, who tried to escape upstairs.

Link: I'll be honest I actually thought this little idea Tifa had could actually be pretty good. It would only be a matter of time of course.


The search for Eliwood would lead Roy and Chrom to the dining room. Where most of the residents have now shown up to for dinner. The Roy's father was anywhere it would be here or soon to be here. Scanning the room Roy did not spot his father, but he did however see Lilina. "I should probably tell Lilina about what we're planning on doing now so she knows for later," Roy said to Chrom. Who nodded in agreement.

"Of course, you go do that. I'll ask around about Eliwood," Chrom said. The two then split up and Chrom went over to a table consisting of Phoenix Wright, Trucy, and Maya Fey. The latter of the three is still a temporary resident. "Hey Phoenix! Quick question, have you seen lord Eliwood anywhere," Chrom asked as he got close to the table.

"I've heard that name before. That's Roy's father if I'm not mistaken," Phoenix asked, and Chrom nodded in confirmation. "Can't say I've seen him around here, but he might be in the game room, or the invite residential building. That's my guess."

"Thanks for letting me know."

Chrom was about to turn and find Roy again when Maya had asked, "Why are you looking for him?"

"Maya, if it's private then it's probably best if we don't question it," Phoenix warned. Chrom then turned around and looked at the two. "Don't worry, no need to answer if you don't want to."

"No, it's fine. I've finally convinced Roy to tell his father about him and Lilina, that's why we're looking for him," Chrom said.

Phoenix's eyes lit up in recognition of that conversation on Thanksgiving. "Ah yes, I remember Roy talking about that in November. I told him it was probably best to tell his father, but he never did. Good to know he's changed his mind."

"What are you talking about daddy," Trucy asked curiously.

"Nothing you need to concern yourself Trucy, you'll understand when you're older."

"Is this something related to Pearl telling me about 'special someone'," Trucy had innocently asked. To which Phoenix went red in the face.

Phoenix Wright (Former Ace Attorney): This is why I don't prefer Trucy and Pearl to hang out too much. It is solely because of that reason.
Maya Fey (Spirit Medium in training): Oh come on Nick. It's not that bad.
Phoenix Wright: Pearl literally knocked me out when she saw me with Ron's wife. Who was thanking me for proving her husband not guilty. For a small eight-year-old she packs quite a punch(5).

Roy had eventually found Lilina sitting by herself at another table, where she was just finishing up her dinner now. The young lion was quick to intercept her on her way to the trash can saying, "Lilina, there's something we need to talk about."

"Oh ok," Lilina said nervous as she put her dirty plate on the window partition to the kitchen. To which Kawasaki happily took so it could be cleaned. "What is this about."

"Well.. I've finally decided to tell my father about us. I just wanted to let you know first so you could be prepared," Roy said, also nervous.

Roy was expecting Lilina to be shocked and worried about how that would go. What he didn't expect was her asking, "Wait, your father doesn't know?" Roy's eyes widened in shock, Lilina thought Eliwood knew. "You never told your own father about us?!"

"I know, it seemed like a good decision. I mean in order for us to get married, if that does happen, is if they combined our two kingdoms. That's a lot of land to cover," Roy explained to the best of his ability.

"That doesn't mean you shouldn't tell him, it's better if he knows sooner rather than later." Lilina sighed, she didn't know why Roy thought that to ever be a good idea. "At least you've decided to tell him now so do that please."

"Don't worry I'll make this right. Hopefully he doesn't freak out," Roy said to Lilina before turning away and meeting up with Chrom again.


Kasumi's intel gathering, under Hades' control of course, led her to the game room. She had a clipboard and paper in hand and was ready to write anything and everything down. She eventually walked over to a couch that had Luigi, Isabelle, Ridley, Young Link who returned in between episodes, King Dedede, and Paper Mario.

Kasumi walked over to the group saying, "Hey guys, how's your evening so far?"

"I'm doing pretty well. Explain why you're talking to me before I fry you," Ridley said menacingly. Kasumi was frightened to say the least. "Last I checked you're not the most friendly person around."

"I'm just doing a quick survey of my own interest. I'm asking around what scares people the most. Do you mind if I write down your answers," Kasumi said.

"I don't see a problem in that, fire away," King Dedede said as he leaned back on the armchair he was sitting on.

"Okay, so what scares you the most," Kasumi asked as she turned to Isabelle.

"That would be sharks for me, with all those teeth they can practically snap anyone in two," Isabelle said. Seemed understandable with that reasoning. Paper Mario then made a motion with two of his fingers, indicating he was afraid of scissors. And for good reason.

"Samus," Ridley simply said as Kasumi turned to him. "That's it, that's what scares me." Kasumi, while confused, wrote it down regardless.

She then turned to Luigi who said, "Ghosts in-a general. I don't-a have fond memories, except for-a Polterpup."

Kasumi accepted the answer given Luigi's game background. Next up was Young Link. "So Young Link, what scares you the most," Kasumi asked as the hero of time was silent for a bit.

"The unstoppable marching of time that is slowly guiding all of us towards an inevitable death," Young Link. Everyone around the couch, and within listening distance were in a stunned silence. No one was expecting that answer. Meanwhile Young Link was remembering a certain moon.

King Dedede, without hesitation, pointed at Young Link saying, "That one. That one scares me."

Kasumi was quick to regain her focus and composure after that saying, "I… see. You may want to look into someone to talk to you about that. If you excuse me I have other places to be." With that Kasumi left the game room in a hurry.

Kasumi (The perfect student): Well, I wasn't expecting that kind of response. Still puts us one step closer to the goal. Just need to keep this up… oh, you don't have to worry about what it's for.


Link and Zelda were now at the restaurant Tifa had told the former to go to and were seated. Cloud and Tifa were off on a table to the side. Far from the two, but close enough for Cloud to keep an eye on them. The ex-SOLDIER noticed the two were very nervous. And it probably didn't help that the waiter had noticed this earlier and asked what he could get for the lovely couple. It was a simple mistake, but it was the end goal.

Eventually Cloud tapped on the earpiece while Zelda was distracted reading the menu asking, "What conversations have you used so far?"

Link quickly began to pretend to look at his own menu while putting a finger on his own earpiece whispering, "Normal stuff. Hobbies, favorite foods. Keeping it small."

"That's pretty good so far," Cloud said. "Has she said anything that made you think she likes you two." The ex-SOLDIER didn't really want to ask such a question but knew that Tifa would want a report.

"She seemed to begin to talk about the Link from her world when she remembered he liked to fish," Link explained. "When she realized what she was talking about I'm pretty sure I saw a blush and she hid herself behind the menu."

"Okay, that probably doesn't mean too much other than that talking about the Link from her world is a touchy subject. And to be fair we never did see him visit or anything while we've seen the Zelda from your world in the mansion twice so far."

"True." Link quickly turned his head to where Cloud was sitting and noticed someone wasn't there. "By the way, where's Tifa. Weren't you two together?"

"She said she had to go to the bathroom and asked me to keep an eye," Cloud said. He then felt like he had a sudden realization. "Wait a minute, she left for the bathroom seven minutes ago."

"Did she eat anything she wasn't supposed to eat earlier today," Link said a little too loud. Zelda looked up from her menu for a bit. Link was able to cover and continue staring at his own menu. Zelda then went back to looking at hers. "Like is she lactose intolerant as people tell me its called."

"No nothing like that." Cloud then looked over to where the bathrooms were and noticed that the door to the kitchen was across from them. "You don't think she disguised herself as a waiter do you?"

"What would she have to accomplish by doing that," Link whispered trying to reason.

"Probably making sure nothing gets in the way of you two and your dinner. I'm blaming Lucina for this," Cloud said as he turned off the earpiece for now.

Lucina: Did I tell Tifa to disguise herself as a waiter. I meant that as a last resort option, only if she really needed to do that. Don't tell me she did it… dang it, Tifa. I even told her specifics of what to do.

Sure enough Tifa, who was in a waiter outfit and had her hair up in a bun and was sporting a fake mustache. Mario would be ashamed of anyone to use such a thing so let's hope he doesn't find out about that. Tifa made her way around to the two with their drinks. Cloud watched on with worry as Tifa carefully put the glasses down on the table and walked away. The ex-SOLDIER sent her a 'this is gonna end badly' look and hoped she got the message.

Tifa looked back, practically saying 'what's the worst that could happen' before walking back into the kitchen. A small crash was heard and Cloud facepalmed. He is definitely blaming Lucina for this.


Speaking of Lucina, once again, the princess and Orange were now in the arcade room in hopes of finding Blue. Or at least that's what Lucina was hoping. Orange just wanted to not have this whole thing rushed. "Okay, he has to be around here somewhere."

Orange just wanted to walk and sneak away right then and there, but followed anyway as she knew Lucina would just find her again. The two eventually came across Robin who, after seeing Lucina asked, "Lucina what are you doing here?"

The princess and the orange haired inkling both stopped and faced the tactician. "Oh hey Robin, we were just looking for Blue," Lucina answered.

Robin spared a quick glance to Orange who slowly shook her head that it wasn't her that wanted to do that. "Really, because it would seem you're looking for Blue all while dragging Orange along. Lucina, I know you want to help but you can't rush these things."

"Robin, the fallout after the trial is what caused them to break up in the first place," Lucina said, trying to reason with her husband. "I don't think it would be hard for them to get back together again."

"Not hearing it, I know for a fact that pregnancy can caused mood swings and this is one of them," Robin stated.

That did not go over well with Lucina as she shouted "You think this is a mood swing?!" With that Robin began to actually drag Lucina out of the arcade room. It was quite a sight to behold. "Orange, look for Blue. I'm sure he wants to talk to you," Lucina said as Robin brought her out of the room.

Orange: Sorry Lucina. But I think I will take my own pace on the whole rekindling. After all, we're already friends again. Maybe wait a couple weeks.

Oranges sighed before walking over to one of the arcade machines. Raven then decided to walk over saying, "I know Lucina can do a lot of things but I was not expecting that."

Orange was startled at first as she turned around but calmed down. "You're the female Robin, sorry Raven right," Orange asked and the chief tactician nodded. "Yeah, she helped me once before back when I first had a crush on Blue. She was pretty excited, and maybe she wanted to see us back together again before she gave birth."

"That could very well be the truth," Raven said. "I need to go now, hope you have a fine night." With that Raven left.


Link: So the dinner went pretty well. Tifa did trip one time but thankfully it was nowhere near our table. After that we kinda continued the rest of the night. And it was going pretty well. Until a car came by and splashed a puddle, only soaking Zelda. I tried to do my best to help her dry off but the dress was already damp and ruined from the whole thing. By the time we decided it was best to head back to the mansion the buses were done running for today. And we both know Kapp'n doesn't run his bus around this time. Which brings to the start of this episode.

"You can't just come based on what fuel you do have," Link said into his phone as he called Fox. Which he got when he first came to the mansion. "Alright fine, we'll see you in a bit." Link then turned off his phone.

"What did Fox say," Zelda asked.

"He can pick us up but he has to fuel up his Landmaster first. It's gonna be about fifteen minutes," Link replies. And Zelda sighed in disappointment. "I should've checked the bus times earlier."

"Guess you should've," Zelda said.

Off in a bush on the other side of the road was Cloud and Tifa, both also deciding that this took a turn for the worst. They tried to focus on getting the two back as soon as possible, but they also didn't pay attention to bus times. "This really could've gone better," Cloud said.

"Looking back on it, I probably shouldn't have done what Lucina asked me to do. Considering how far she is into the pregnancy it only makes things harder," Tifa said. Cloud then sighed as he opened up the mansion groupchat.

ex-SOLDIER, Cloud, has entered the chat.

Cloud: Tifa and I need a ride back to the mansion the buses are finished running for today.

Fox: I'm already going out to pick up Link and Zelda. Do you want me to pick you guys up too?

Cloud: No, it's a long story but we can't let them see us. Can anyone else do it

Man of the Mansion has entered the chat.

Master Hand: Why are you and Tifa following those two around the city?

Cloud: Ask Lucina or Tifa. I got dragged into the whole thing.

Robin: I got it out of Lucina and I wholeheartedly apologize for her. Lucina wanted to try and kill two birds with one stone tonight. So while she tried to find Blue and bring Orange to him she asked Tifa to try and set up Link and Zelda.

Master Hand: ...She does realize that Link and Zelda being together may cause some issues back on their separate Hyrules.

Evilest of them all, Ganondorf has entered the chat.

Ganondorf: Aren't we all just ourselves reincarnated.

Crazy Hand: The way I'm told is that your specific world is SPLIT across all the different games. We get one NEW Hyrule world whenever a new game comes out with a NEW timeline. It's more chaotic than the Fire Emblem worlds.

Marth: I won't deny that, especially after Awakening.

Falco: I can take my own landmaster to pick you two up after Fox gets Link and Zelda.

"Okay Falco will come to get us after Fox gets them," Cloud said as he put the phone away. The ex-SOLDIER then looked over and noticed that Link and Zelda were sitting on a bench by the bus stop sign now. "Guess we may as well watch this to the end."

Link and Zelda were both silent. Having not spoken to each other for a few minutes. Eventually Zelda said, "I'm sorry things turned out like this. I probably should've worn something different."

"Wha- Zelda, what happened back there was a freak accident. Except for missing the last bus, I believe that's mostly my fault," Link said. The two were silent once again. "I don't know if this is a good time to ask, but what is the Link on your world like?"

Zelda looked away from Link for a few seconds before answering, "I wouldn't know. Last I heard of him was a letter he sent me about two months back."

Cloud, Tifa, and Link were suddenly interested in this topic, the latter asking, "He's not within Hyrule?"

"After everything was said and done. And after we dealt with our problems between Lorule and Yuga. He left Hyrule without a word, sent me a letter a week later saying he decided to travel the world and help those in need. Saying that he would one day return to Hyrule."

Link seemed to think about this, and began to believe that there may be a timeline of events here. "How long ago was that specific letter?"

Zelda didn't answer right away but eventually muttered, "Six years. And the letters have been getting less frequent."(6) Zelda looked down and Link could tell she was trying to hold back tears. "I'm beginning to believe he may never come back, and when I first met you. Well that kind of resurfaced some old memories. They were good ones don't worry, I just never realised how long it's been until then."

"I mean, I don't think you'll be able to understand the wait the Zelda in my world had to go through. A full century," Link said recalling the whole ordeal he went through in 2017. "Honestly, I don't know how she was able to hold ganon back for that long. Oh, I'm sorry if that hurt you in some way."

"No, it's fine. I'm glad we can talk to each other like this, and for the record. I know it was Lucina that set this whole thing up," Zelda said. Which caused Tifa and Cloud to freeze in place.

"I mean technically that was Tifa doing what Lucina asked, but you're not wrong. And how long," Link asked.

"Ever since I saw Tifa's handwriting," Zelda said. Meaning she had known from the start. "I said yes though, because I felt like this would be good for me." She then looked at her damp dress. "Things didn't turn out as well as I hoped."

Link smilied, "Well, if it's any consolation. I think the dinner went well." Zelda giggled and nodded in agreement. Link then decided it was now or never. "Zelda, I feel like there's something I need to tell you know before Fox gets here."

"Believe me if that letter is indicating anything, then I like you too." Link had blushed at that. Tifa meanwhile, held her fist up to Cloud for a fistbump, which the ex-SOLDIER reluctantly did. "I just don't know if it's best if we are together, for the sake of our worlds. Not to mention the Zelda on yours."

"Knew it," Cloud whispered from the bush.

"Well, there may be a solution to that actually. Just so happens I've actually gotten quite used to the mansion life here that I now feel like it would be hard for me to readjust if I eventually go home. So I think I'm going to stay here for the time being after the off-season begins," Link explained.

"But what about-"

Zelda was cut off by Link saying, "If the Zelda from my world does eventually show up then I'll cross that bridge. For now though I think it could work."

Zelda smiled saying, "I'm glad to hear that." She then leaned in and gave Link a quick kiss. The champion was frozen speechless. "Yeah, I should've expected that."

Link quickly snapped out of it saying, "Sorry, just wasn't expecting that. But let me return the favor." Link then kissed Zelda. Tifa was happily sighing knowing that the plan worked. Zelda and Link were then interrupted as a light coming from Fox's Landmaster shined on them.

The two quickly looked over to see the Landmaster pointing directly at them. Fox then opened the hatch and showed himself shouting, "Hate to interrupt this beautiful moment, but Master Hand wants me to get you two back to the mansion ASAP so he can talk to you two. Especially if you plan on carrying out this relationship." Nodding at Fox the two quickly climbed into the landmaster.(7)

As Fox's Landmaster took off Tifa and Cloud left the bush they were hiding in and walked onto the sidewalk. "Thank goodness that's over," Cloud said as Falco's Landmaster could be heard.

"Come on, Cloud at least be happy for them," Tifa said as the two walked over to the landmaster.


Roy and Chrom had finally found Eliwood in the lounge of the mansion, which once again surprisingly has anyone in it. "Okay Roy, now or never," Chrom said as he went to go sit on a stool.

Meta Knight, who was sitting on another stool and was reading a book at the time quickly asked, "What's going on."

"Let's just say I finally got Roy to work on confessing something to his father," Chrom said to Meta Knight. Confused, the masked warrior went back to his book.

Meta Knight (masked warrior): I was later told by Chrom that Roy was confessing that he pursued a romantic relationship with Lilina. We're more than a month after Valentine's day but love still seems to be in the air.

Taking a deep breath Roy walked over to his father. "Hello father. There's something important I need to talk to you about," Roy said as he sat down on the couch, on the other end of Eliwood.

"Ah Roy, my boy. Your sitting on the other end so this must be serious," Eliwood said as he turned to face Roy. His face then turned grim as he said, "Who do I have to beat up."

"No! No, it's nothing like that," Roy shouted to try and stop his father from potentially getting himself kicked out of the mansion. "This is about the thing we talked about a couple months back. About the future of the kingdom and finding that someone."

Eliwood's face lit up in recognition as he remembered the conversation fondly. "Ah, so someone has caught my son's eye. I knew it already when I talked to you awhile back, but I have to ask are they someone from our world. Because if they aren't there may be a problem."

"No, this person is very much from our world. Actually knew her for a long time, you know her too as well," Roy said.

"Then there shouldn't be a problem," Eliwood said. "Come on, no need to be shy. I promise I'll listen with an open ear."

"You see… the one I fell in love with… is Lilina," Roy said. Upon hearing the name Eliwood was shocked silent. He knew the two were close but not that close. "I didn't tell you at first since I was afraid you'd be mad. But I built up the confidence to tell you."

Eliwood looked away from Roy and held his head in a deep thought. After a minute he sighed and said, "Son, I'm not gonna lie. I'm happy for you two really, but if this relationship is going to eventually go forward into marriage then we will have a problem down the line."

"I know, but Chrom talked it over with me. He said we could set up lord across multiple areas of the land to help balance things out. It may take a few years but things should stabilize," Roy explained.

"Ah so I see you got a second opinion already. True that could work, but it could cause a revolt eventually," Eliwood said. He then gave a smile as he saw Roy look down. "Don't look so solemn. I'm saying that while it could be difficult, I will allow you to continue."

"Father I-" Roy began to say but was at a loss for words. The one person he was afraid of breaking the news to allow it. Roy went ahead and hugged his father saying, "Thank you so much."

Chrom: Proud of Roy, took awhile but he finally did it. And when he and Lilina one day get married I better be a groomsman for my service in this.

Roy: Me asking Lilina to marry me is definitely a few years out. But yes, I will make Chrom a groomsman.


Master Hand was now in his office, and facing him was Link and Zelda. "I'm sure both of you know why you're in here," Master Hand said. The man of the mansion was pulling an intimidating tone and atmosphere as he looked across the various books on the shelf behind his desk.

It was working on Link who said, "We um, were out past curfew?"

"We have no curfew in the smash mansion unless you're eighteen or younger. Try again." Master Hand turned around and faced the two, making them aware of how serious this was.

"We're here because we wish to pursue a romantic relationship. However, due to the two of us being from different worlds you fear a problem could be made," Zelda said. Who was not intimidated by Master Hand and had a plan.

"That is precisely why. Has it dawned on you that the Link here still has another game coming up in the future? While your timeline may be done for now his isn't. Not to mention this could cause timeline problems across your multiple incarnations. We don't want time vortexes to appear everywhere," Master Hand explained.

"Isn't there already residents from multiple points of time here," Zelda said.

Master Hand faltered a bit but responded, "The Smash world is a gray area. If there are multiple versions of someone here then it is fine. However, say you bring this Link into your Hyrule and cause a chance meeting with the Link of your world. While nothing could change within the timeline. A green time vortex could open up here and spit something out from either the past or future. That is what I don't want to happen."

"Then what if we stay in the smash world during the off-season and only go back to our worlds if we have to," Zelda said, laying down the ultimatum.

"Are you suggesting leaving all of your duties as princess behind, just to be with him," Master Hand asked.

"Yes I am, and if the time comes, we can explain ourselves to the Link and Zelda from our worlds. No harm will be done as long as it stays on the Smash World right."

Knowing he caught himself in a trap with his own words, he had to cave. "Fine, you can be together. But ground rules, when one goes back to their home world. The other can't follow EVER. Is that clear?" Both Link and Zelda nodded. "Then you may go." Link scurried out of the office while Zelda slowly left the office.

Link: Wow, Zelda you handled that very well. How did you even do that?
Zelda: When you've been involved in the duties I do for long enough, you learn quite a bit.


(no cameras)

Kasumi was now in her room with the door locked. Once she made it to her desk she took a small disk from her desk and put it on the desk. A hologram of Hades then showed up saying, "Hello Kasumi. Were you able to gather anything of interest today?"

Kasumi smiled saying, "Oh trust me. I did."


Author's Note: This episode was taking so long I think I just got lazy with writing at the end. Again this is the last episode where I will be accepting dares or truths for the truth or dare episode. Despite the number of those we get I have a plan in place in the event we fall short. Also, while the season is being finished I'm preparing ahead of time and am working on making my own cover art that will be put on the story for the duration of the movie's upload and writing. If I finish it in time it will go up when the first part of the movie is posted. Keep in mind I am currently working on improving and practicing as far as art goes so it may not be the best.

(1) Last time Link was flipped over onto the floor by Tifa was during the latter's interview in 2018.
(2) He is talking about Amy Rose. This will be addressed in season 6
(3) Lucina's nine months will be up in late April. If I have to, it will be a special episode that takes place after whatever day I chose for the movie.
(4) This is how I'm roping in the truth or dare episode. Derick Lindsey, the ones you sent in have been written by others residents and were put in.
(5) Yes, this happened in both the game and anime.
(6) How long it's been since A Link Between Worlds released.
(7) Link and Zelda have achieved support rank S.
