The Legend of Zelda/Fanfic Recs

Remember to raise the fic over your head before you add it here. We recommend printing it out, first, though: holding a monitor over your head is both stupid and dangerous. Unless you have a laptop. But still be careful.

These are recommendations made by Tropers for The Legend of Zelda Fan Fics, all of which have been signed. After a few samples, you will be able to judge whether you might be interested in the 'fic, based on who recommended it. No-name recommendations will be Zapped (wiki). Nobody would back up the rec. Discussion of the recommendation is welcome on the discussion page. As such discussion is important, do remember to add the discussion page to the watchlist, if need be.

Authors, and Websites
TiggerPup91
 * Recommended by Alanna Mo
 * This girl writes for different fandoms, but her Legend of Zelda fanfics are based off of the The Legend of Zelda Four Swords Adventures manga.

Dictionary Ink
 * Recommended by Bookwormtiff
 * Dictionary Ink writes for many fandoms, and has a very nice collection of Zelda drabbles. Her style is peculiar as it contrasts and moves between choppy abruptness and eloquence, but somehow it flows and makes for an engaging read every time. Her Zelda pieces are good character studies, and her fics are het. Mostly. (There is one crack-fic of Zelda/Ruto...)

Seldavia
 * Recommended by Cattychan
 * This girl is spectacular when it comes to plot holes. Many of her fics (most notably The Fierce War and Cry for Hyrule) do a great job of "humanizing" Ganondorf.

The Tacochickenwings
 * Recommended by Cattychan
 * Tacochickenwings has a brilliant (obscure, but still brilliant) sense of humor. She has written some extremely hilarious R-rated parodies of The Minish Cap, The Wind Waker, and the The Legend of Zelda Four Swords manga. The Legend of Zelda: The Wind Waker has two sequels: Hidden Fire and The Sister (which is now a Dead Fic). Four Swords Plus also has a sequel: The Prince of Ny Potho. Also, as a warning: there is LOTS of yaoi, yuri, and hentai. Rule 34 probably contributed much to the The Tacochickenwings' inspiration.

General Fics
''Stories focused on the family and the friendly relationships of the cast. Plot-focused stories or light day-in-the-life stories. Pretty much anything that isn't focused on romance.''

The Hyrulian Valhalla Saga by Queenie Z
 * Recommended by Cattychan
 * Summary: Meanwhile, in the Hyrulian version of Valhalla, where the Heroes go when they die… A series of cracky shorts featuring all of the Links and their wacky adventures in the afterlife.
 * Synopsis: As mentioned in the summary, this is about all the Links spending eternity in the afterlife. Follows the new official timeline, with Skyward Sword coming first. In Chapter 4, “I Dreamt I Was A Moron”, the CD-i games and/or the animated series is mocked. Chapter 9, “Let’s Conductive Ourselves Like Abults” (deliberately misspelt) makes fun of the infamous My Inner Life. Chapter 11, “I Kissed My Past Self (And I’m Not Sure If I Liked It)” is ‘’slightly’’ disturbing. Chapter 23, “With Apologies To Akira Himekawa” refers to the artist circle that created most of the manga adaptations of the games (I’m not really sure why the author felt the need to apologize, though...). Each hero apparently manifests as they were in their prime, rather than as they were in their later years. Since every hero is named "Link", each one has been given a nickname. Here's what I've managed to figure out (listed in no particular order):
 * Ocarina of Time / Majora’s Mask Link (the Hero of Time): Time
 * Twilight Princess Link: Twilight
 * The Minish Cap Link: Mini
 * Skyward Sword Link: Sky
 * Four Swords Links (the Heroes of the Four Sword): Green, Blue, Red, and Vio (based on the Four Swords+ manga)
 * Oracle of Seasons / Oracle of Ages Link: Duo (because he saved both Holodrum and Labrynna)
 * A Link to the Past / Link’s Awakening Link: Light
 * The Wind Waker / Phantom Hourglass Link (the Hero of Winds): Wind
 * Spirit Tracks Link: Engie (because he was an engineer)
 * The Legend of Zelda Link: Brown (because he’s the only brunette)

Legend of Zelda: A New Day by Snake Staff.
 * Recommended by Forged in Darkness
 * Synopsis: Zelda attempts to keep power in a rapidly modernizing world after an attack on her father, while Link is sent out to bring her the Triforce. Interesting and fairly original ideas so far.

Hit List by zestycrouton.
 * Recommended by Mugen Kagemaru
 * Synopsis: A classic Zelda story set in a modern-day high school. On the site we have this. "It all started as a typical day at Ordon High, until a sudden school shooting turns the life of Link Hero upside down. Now, surrounded by enemies, can Link save his friends and escape the school alive?"

A curse, not a blessing by [http://www.fanfiction.net/u/2621246/Insane_Certifiably Insane. Certifiably]
 * Recommended by Cattychan
 * Summary: "The Triforce, the golden power, the blessing of the goddesses. Is it truly a blessing, or a curse?"
 * Synopisis: A different approach to the "the Chosen One" theme of the Zelda series. Not set in any particular game, just about the legacies of the Triforce-bearers. The inner thoughts of the Bearers of Wisdom, Courage, and Power.
 * Notes: Very, very sad. Uses the perspectives of Zelda, Link, and Ganondorf, in that order. Each one's POV uses a different format. Zelda's is NORMAL, Link's is ITALICIZED, and Ganondorf's is in BOLD.

To Forge the Master by Emerald Dragon
 * Recommended by Sheik

Hylian Lullabies by Kayari of Midnight
 * Recommended by Cattychan
 * Summary: "COMPLETE: A collection of over 100 lyrics set to many of the Background music tunes from the different Zelda games. Some are cute, some are silly, some are just plain weird. Enjoy!"
 * Synopsis: Like the summary says, this is a collection of Kayari of Midnight's fan-made lyrics to many of the songs from The Legend of Zelda franchise. "Hylian Lullabies" does not include any songs from Phantom Hourglass, Spirit Tracks, or Skyward Sword, because it was completed before those games were released.

Liberty Rock by Sergeant Conley
 * Recommended by Sanity's Papercut
 * Synopsis: As the summary puts it: "Post TP. This is the tale of the warriors who defended Liberty Rock in the name of peace in a land torn by Civil War, of the days long siege where their enemies grew in number, yet their resolve remained strong, and of the fall of the Hero of Twilight."

The story follows the framework of the The Wind Waker, but deviates in various points, mostly though the two adult Link's heavy influence on the Kid-Link by tring to pull him into different directions: While Ocarina of Time Link, who entered a Heroic BSOD upon realizing that there was a timeline where his attempt to secure Hyrule just flat out FAILED, tries to train the boy into becoming the one who can bring Hyrule back, Twilight Princess Link wants the boy to decide for himself, instead of being sucked into some ancient prophecy.

On Being Young by Guardian1
