How the LU Boys React to Being Sick

I’ve been sick for the past few days, so have some headcanons:

Time: Most likely to hide illness, not out of a fear of showing weakness, but because he refuses to neglect his responsibility as a leader and protector. However, if someone (Twilight) calls him out on his illness jeopardizing his ability to fulfill his responsibility, he will usually submit to being taken care of properly.

Warriors: You’d think he’d be the most likely to exhibit symptoms of a man-cold, and you’d be right…sort of. When he was in the army, and especially because he was in a position of authority, he had to learn how tough out illness. However, if he’s somewhere where he feels he’s safe, he will definitely be dramatic about it.

Twilight: Objectively the best patient. Recognizes when he’s sick, let’s himself be taken care of, takes his medicine. Is likely to be more pensive and melancholy than usual, however.

Sky: He sleeps. This man is dead to the world until he is well again.

Legend: CLINGY. C-L-I-N-G-Y. I said what I said. Additionally, due to his terror of vulnerability, absolutely hates being sick and is also pretty likely to hide it as long as he can. Ten times grumpier than usual, but interestingly tends to lose his sardonic edge and just gets really quiet.

Wild: Tends to act pretty similarly to Time, but not because he’s hiding that he’s sick—he will genuinely not notice that he’s sick. You will never meet anyone less aware of himself in this department. He will just go about his normal routine until his inevitable collapse from exhaustion makes him finally question if something’s wrong.

Hyrule: Also an extremely good patient—he really appreciates being taken care of, as he never had anyone to take care of him when he lived all alone in an apocalyptic Hyrule. He also realizes how difficult it could be when SOME PEOPLE (*ahem*) hide their illnesses or injuries, so he’s not very likely to give much trouble in that department, unless he’s having a particularly low self-esteem day and tries to take care of it himself to avoid being a burden.

Four: Tends to get sick the most severely when he catches something for whatever reason—when he gets sick, he’s down for the count. Just has a terrible immune system. He also tends to get kind of loopy when he’s sick.

Wind: Takes illness like a champ—but perhaps a little too much like one. It’s often difficult to get him to sit still, even when he is sick, and he often tries to return to his normal routine way sooner than he should.
