Significant Sluggles

A sequel to the 3-sentence fic "Snissing and Sluddles" - both fics co-authored by @newtsnaturethings - who still has the absolute best ideas and the scoop on slugs. 😄 (If you want to read this fic, I recommend reading "Snissing and Sluddles" first so you know what in Hyrule's going on here!).

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

When Zelda manages to tear her gaze from Link’s mating-slug-laden shovel to look at his face, her expression shifts from an excited grin and glittering eyes borne of all-things-nature-enthusiasm to raised-eyebrows and mouth-oh of empathetic shock (very nearly reflecting Link’s expression, though his surprised-mouth makes more of an ‘ah’ than an ‘oh’).

“Don’t panic!” Zelda shouts.

“SHHHHHHHHH!” Link hisses.  “You’ll disturb them!”  If he was a slug about to mate with his slugnificant other, he would be so mad if someone disturbed them.  It’d be so rude!

At least he isn’t freaking out.  Much.
