The {{MM|-}} webcomic follows the misadventures of [[Link]] and his efforts in avoiding his responsibility of saving [[Termina]]. The first part takes place just moments before the [[Moon (Object)|Moon]] crashes into the land. Link uses the {{Term|OoT3D|Ocarina of Time (Item)|link}} to turn back time, but only so he can keep playing on his [[Nintendo 3DS]]. The second part has [[Tatl]] introducing Link to masks in an attempt to get him to stop, but this backfires when he plays with the masks and forgets all about the Moon.
