Group of Weirdos is a comedy fan-fiction by Mr. Light Chicken Bulbs, about the LegendOfZelda series. It is a retelling in which Link is an idiot, but the main attraction and source of the name is that each of the defeated bosses joins his entourage over the adventure, each with their own personalities and... flaws. There are currently two stories in the series, the completed [[http://www.fanfiction.net/s/3045006/1/Group_of_Weirdos_Ocarina_of_Time Ocarina of Time]] and the work-in-progress [[http://www.fanfiction.net/s/5629614/1/Group_of_Weirdos_Majoras_Mask Majora's Mask]].
