Lizegg

Lizegg is the femslash ship between Elizabert Megafig and Eggabell Batternugget from the Bugsnax fandom.

Canon
Eggabell and Lizbert met when Eggabell was working at a hospital and Liz burst through the door, injured, before passing out. While Eggabell treated her, Liz told her all about her adventures. The two of them bonded through Lizbert's stories and, when she was well enough to go back to her expedition, Eggabell insisted she would join her to make sure she didn't get hurt. The two ended up falling in love and Eggabell quit her job to follow Liz forever.

While Lizbert was preparing for her expedition to Snaktooth Island, she told Eggabell that she didn't have to join her and that she would come back and visit when she could, but Eggabell refused to be left behind. It is unknown whether she was more concerned about being apart from her girlfriend or falling behind as Lizbert furthered her career and grew stronger.

While both characters are absent for most of the game, a lot of information about their relationship can be picked up from watching their video diaries and speaking to the other grumps.

From the video diaries, it is suggested that the pair were on semi-good terms before their disappearance. Lizbert would bring Eggabell snax from her adventures, and Eggabell would patch up any wounds her girlfriend had. Eggabell is concerned about Lizbert's physical health, which Triffany Lottablog mentions to the Journalist. In the first video diary, Eggabell is worried about Lizbert's safety and tells her she doesn't have to put herself in danger just to impress her, an accusation Liz doesn't deny.

Eggabell suffers from depressive episodes in which she doubts herself and her ability to help people. While Lizbert can usually bring her out of them, Eggabell is still shown to be insecure. In the second video diary, Eggabell is upset after a stressful day of work and Lizbert reassures her that she helps her every day, for which Eggabell is grateful.

In the third video diary, Eggabell shares some of her troubles with Chandlo Funkbun, who tells her that Lizbert will never stop worrying about her. Eggabell states that she wants to get stronger so that she can look after herself and keep up with her girlfriend. Chandlo promises to help her work out, but assures her she has no reason to change because Liz loves her. In his interview, Chandlo expresses how fond he is of Eggabell yet also shows respect for Lizbert. He also shares Lizbert's concerns over Eggabell's mental health. He tells the Journalist that the couple were strong together and is confident that they're okay.

In the fourth video diary, the couple argue over Eggabell's involvement in Floofty Fizzlebean's experiments. Lizbert worries that Eggabell has changed and fears for her safety. Eggabell argues that she is improving herself and that Lizbert is only jealous that she is no longer the strongest one in their relationship. It is also seen during Floofty's personal sidequest 'Floofty Faces Judgement' that Chandlo also had issues with the experiments they were doing on Eggabell. Beffica mentions in her interview that no one had seen Eggabell or Lizbert since their argument and says she hopes they are on a romantic getaway sorting through their issues. She also tells the Journalist that Lizbert's only weakness is Eggabell, as she will do anything to make her girlfriend happy.

In the fifth and final video diary, Lizbert apologises for judging Eggabell and the latter forgives her, stating she just wants them to be together. Lizbert worries that Eggabell won't be safe joining her on her expedition, but Eggabell assures her that everything will be fine. This is the last video diary before the couple's disappearance.

When the Journalist finally finds Eggabell on Frosted Peak, she informs them that her and Liz got separated during an earthquake and refuses to leave until she's found her girlfriend. With the help of the Journalist and Filbo, Eggabell finds her girlfriend mutilated by snax. Lizbert explains that the snax are parasites that exploit your weaknesses and turn you into them. After saving Eggabell from the earthquake, Lizbert was swarmed by snax that tried to force their way down her throat, but she fought back and took control over them. She informs the Journalist that she is the only thing holding the island together and urges them to gather everyone and leave. Eggabell refuses to leave her girlfriend behind and lets herself get mutilated alongside Liz. The pair share a kiss and vow to save their friends together.

After the end battle, Lizbert and Eggabell appear at the last minute to defend the boat from snax, allowing their friends to leave. During the good ending epilogue, the pair are seen cuddling on a hilltop, watching the sunset.

Trivia

 * In the original ending of the game, Eggabell died during their adventures. It is explained by Lizbert that her lover missed a jump while scaling the mountain and, while Lizbert tried to save her, the snax had taken over Eggabell's body. This caused Eggabell to attack Lizbert and the latter accidentally pushed her off the cliff, Eggabell falling to her death. This ending was changed because the developers felt as though the player would struggle to form the emotional connection needed to truly care about these mostly unseen characters.
 * Due to doubts about the couple's wellbeing, the developers confirmed that both of them survived the final battle and that the snax eventually wore off, allowing them to move on.
