Crackplot...!

Well. We all know that Percy has peach trees with more peaches than he knows what to do with, and he's been harvesting them and trying to give them to everyone, leaving baskets of peaches just about everywhere

Heli loves peaches.

"Percy! Hey, Percy, you've got to see this, I'm all -!"

[fingersofleaf]

Percy kind of flails, kind of grins helplessly. He's all in jeans and a t-shirt, but--well. "Heli! Oh, wow. Me too."

[keepyourlamps]

"Wow."

Heli giggles. "We don't look like each other!"

[fingersofleaf]

"I know!" Percy laughs, only it comes out lighter and trillier than he meant. "And my hair's all long."

[keepyourlamps]

Heli laughs - deeper than usual. "Oh," she says, and holds her hand out.

"I think I'm bigger than you normally are," she says, "Isn't that funny? I suppose Mama was right when she said I take more after Father than you!"

[fingersofleaf]

"I'm the one got the red hair like Ma, so that's probably mostly right," he says, touching her face curiously. "You're taller. You look all differentish."

[keepyourlamps]

She grins, and touches his hand. "I think it is. Your hands are all like hers, now."

"You do too - you're not all that much shorter, though. Just a little."

[fingersofleaf]

"You're right." He looks down and beams a little.

"It just feels shorter 'cause you're taller, I figure."

[keepyourlamps]

"I figure."

And here, have a glomp.

Percy glomps right back, snuggling her.
