Summary
Shadow had (mostly) made peace with his death. While it was a bit…disappointing, not being able to talk to Vio or the others anymore, he could live with it (ha) knowing that they were safe. All of this went out the window when Link followed a complete stranger through a portal that reeked of dark magic. Willingly, might he add!
Honestly, you’d think he’d know better than to do that without at least leaving a note for the princess or literally anyone before disappearing with a mysterious person who approached him in the middle of the woods.

fault lines (tremble underneath my glass house) by LostAndDowned

Summary
Dark Link reasons, "Even if they did know where you were, they'd never find you down here."
The Hero's laugh seems to echo in time with the spell. "Maybe not."
"You'll die down here," Dark Link says as flatly as he can manage, "Your flesh will rot from your bones and you'll be nothing more than a smear along the wall."
"Like you?" the Hero asks, just as careful and meticulously cruel as the failure of a spell Dark Link cannot wield.
[or: Dark Link fucked up by attempting a spell way out of his paygrade. Four fucked up by getting captured by Hylia's most emo Hero. Ganon fucked up by leaving the three of them alone together. ...wait, three?]
[Or: or: in typical four fashion, "what do you MEAN i can't bring the stray creature of darkness home with me???"]

Summary
They are boarding now, as I stand some kind of guard before the door. The last of them climbs up into the vessel, and the counter that is consuming my mind ticks up. Eighty-seven. Eighty-nine.
Then I hear something new. Not only new words, but a new tone, a new feeling in the feed. This message is only to me.
«You got them out,» it says.
And then, «Your work is acknowledged.»
I want to cry. I want to rip something apart with my teeth – I want to scream loud enough to bring the habitat down. I want to cry. But I can't.
So instead I tap it back in the feed. «Negative. Your work is acknowledged.»

Summary
It seems like there should be a very neat line, at least for humans, between dead and not dead, but I’ve seen enough messy half-alive humans to know that there is no such clear distinction. I’ve seen bodies that were still breathing despite missing part of their heads, bodies that weren’t breathing despite their owners being fully conscious. I wouldn’t call either option alive. I wouldn’t call either option dead, either.
For a machine intelligence, the border is even blurrier. It's hard to say which side of it I will stand on when they're through with me.
