facial hair, man
Link doesn't have it...

Super Smash Brothers Brawl is property of Nintendo and co. Solid Snake is property of Konami.


Link had never an opportunity to grow facial hair for himself (the women around him, all of them, scolded at the slightest hint of stubble though it would never be their faces that the offending hair would scratch), so he was quite fascinated by Snake's.

Was it soft? Was it sharp? Would it yield under his touch? If he kissed the man, would he realize what all the girls he knew complained about?

They cleaned their weapons in the training area of the complex together. That was their one time to bond, free from unnecessary factors like their mutual friend, the Princess of Hyrule. And that's when Link always gave his most surreptitious glances toward Snake's facial hair that often plagued his thoughts...

Because just next to it were lips. And beyond the lips a man

- (who might not feel the same).
