Wild loved cooking with Malon. The woman knew how to cook like no one else, and although they didn't get to spend much time together, she had taught him many new tricks to cooking. The last time they had visited, she even gave him a notebook filled with copies of her family recipes. 

This time, she had insisted that they all have not just a big dinner, but a real feast. She often liked to grace them all with big dinners to really welcome her boys home, but even Wild was caught off guard with how much she wanted to make this time. The two of them had been making preparations ever since they finished lunch. They had gone to the market to buy fresh fruits, veggies and meat, baked a mountain of sweets and spent hours stringing together all kinds of dishes. Malon even went so far to make sure the boys started their chores by milking the cows, churning butter and checking for eggs one extra time so they could use the freshest of ingredients. 

Wild wore the oven mitts as he grabbed the handles on the the pot containing pulled pork. He looked back on all that they had made, finding that there was no counter space whatsoever in the kitchen. "This is all a lot, even for us." He said probably for the tenth time. Even he of all people thought it was a little overkill, even if he was more than happy to have that much more time to spend with her.

"Well you boys do eat like a bunch'a hogs." Malon only laughed, waving her hand before she picked up a bowl of salad. Together, they went to the dining room, which had already been set. 

Before they knew it, they had brought out all the food and had everyone sat down. Everyone, but Malon who chose to lean over Time's chair instead of taking the empty spot beside him and Twilight. 

"Isn't this a little bit much, dear?" Her husband mused with a grin that showed that he didn't actually mind. 

"That's what I told her, but she wouldn't listen!" Wild explained, a few Heroes chuckling at the irony that even Wild, cooking extraordinaire who meticulously made dishes with everyone's tastes in  mind, thought this level of cooking was overkill. 

"It is a special occasion, though." Malon pouted, pushing out her cheeks as she rested her chin on top of Time's head.

"What, getting to see us?" Wind asked, causing the couple to chuckle. 

"Well, of course." Time grinned, lifting up his head to try and see his beloved. "It isn't everyday I get to see the love of my life, but everyday I do, I feel as though everything is right in the world. It restores all the hope in my weary soul."

Malon only laughed more, covering her mouth as she stood up. She smiled fondly as she bopped him on the nose. "Why, that's mighty sweet of you, but no. Link, you're gonna be a daddy." 

Immediately, she was meet with seven excited squeals. Wind nearly began to climb up on the table, but Legend held onto his shirt to prevent him from doing so. He was trying to not seem excited, but even his eyes were beaming. 

"Wait-- you mean you're--?" Time asked, his eye widening. Malon giggled and nodded, placing a kiss on his lips as she held onto his shoulders. When she let go, he went face-first into his soup. Seems as though the information was a bit too much for him to take in and so he passed out. Everyone erupted in laughter, even Malon and Twilight, who worked together to take his face out of the bowl and onto the table instead.
