Unrequited Love
(EarthBound)

Note: This is a sort of crack-fic I wrote for a friend. I thought it was sort of amusing, though. Heh!
"Guys! Help!" came a nearly panicked voice from behind the three travellers. They immediately turned around to face their companion, weapons at the ready.
"What the heck? Is that a-" Ness began, but was cut off by a frustrated growl from Jeff.
"Mr. Saturn! Get. Off. My. Leg." he growled, shaking his leg vigorously in an attempt to shake the strange being off. But it held fast, a unnervingly happy expression slapped across its face and a slight tinge in its cheeks.
"SaTuRN like GlAssEs BoY! ComE HoMeWitH! BoING!" came the Saturn's reply, which failed to explain a thing and merely left the group more confused than they were before.
"I think it may find you attractive, but why a Saturn would think such a thing is beyond me," Poo said calmly, watching as Paula bent down to try and pry the Saturn off Jeff's leg, but it proved to be more difficult than it sounded.
"What do you mean by that?" Jeff asked, adjusting his glasses and glaring at the Prince.
"He means you have a face only a mother could love!" Ness said, bursting into laughter mid-sentence and was soon doubled over in laughter. Poo chuckled quietly to himself, while Jeff turned redder by the second and willed all his strength to keep himself from pouncing upon Ness while he writhed on the ground in laughter. Paula stood aside and turned her gaze from Jeff to Ness and back again, clearly upset in having to yet again play neither side of the argument.
"SaTUrN fOllOW GlAssEs BoY!" the Saturn said, snuggling against the hem of Jeff's trousers, "CoMEWiTH, BoING!"
"Why is it always me?" Jeff asked to no one in particular, remembering the incident with a very persistent monkey a while back.
Shrugging, the foursome started off again in the direction of Onett. A very flustered Jeff following a little ways behind with a very strange limp in his step as the Saturn clung to his leg.
"The least you could do is let go of my leg."
