Acrobatic reproduction

This was one of the most peculiar things I've ever seen. Two Giant Gardenslugs (Limax maximus), intertwined, dangling five feet up from the side of a tree, with a blue, pulsing, jellyfish-like thing dangling below them from the sides of their heads. Apparently, this is how slugs, who are hermaphroditic, reproduce. Life must be pretty dull for your average slug, but an aerial acrobatic tryst would certainly liven things up.
