Gore nodded to the Mudokon patting him on the back, but did not wholly believe him. Whatever, he was too tired to pursue anything, but he accepted the response of the panicking Mudokon. Well, he could see where he was coming from. He followed Gappiqu, ambling slowly. He listened to Gappiqu's sliggish. He wasn't concentrating very hard, but he picked up his meaning. His eyes widened, and he took a step back. He unwittingly shouted in normal language.
Goresplatter: "You mean, like, a crush!!?!?"
He came back to his senses and tried feebley to correct himself.
Goresplatter: "Yeah, guys oughta be careful around bone saws... unlucky fella'..."
He spoke again, but quietly in Sliggish.
Goresplatter: "You gotta be kidding, a Slig having a crush on a Mudokon... it's... wierd... like, think of the, like, what would the... think... erm..."
Words failed Goresplatter. He couldn't think of something to say. He tried to dismiss the basic idea from his mind by answering the question.
Goresplatter: "I guess, if you really think so... but mate, ask her out in private, it's embarassing if she says yes, but think what others will think if she says no, man..."
