slushily

Through melting snow

In a slushy manner—with the wet, half-melted quality of snow turning to water, or with excessive sentimentality.

The physical sense describes movement through or like slush: We trudged slushily through the parking lot.

The figurative sense suggests cloying emotion: The movie ended slushily with tearful reunions.
