This is probably all England's fault. Or maybe Norway's, who knows what kind of weird prank a disgruntled Northern neighbour can have pulled on her

[She stops at the voice and sight of something, someone, familiar. ...just that, once the initial relief has faded into a more general relief, she notices that something is off about her territory, too. Something is very off, though she cannot really put her finger on it.
She takes a step towards her, and then another, halting only when she is close enough to touch the other if she raises her arm.]
[It finally occurs to her that Sweden looks a bit different than usual. Younger, perhaps.... just a bit.
And even though Finland is still clearly shorter than the Swede, their height difference seems to have decreased by an inch or two at the most. She looks down to her feet to ensure that she isn't wearing shoes.... No, just socks.]
[She reaches out for her wife, only raising one hand to brush it feather lightly over the other woman's cheek, nails gently scraping along the youger female's jawline.
Yes, it is Finland. Finland is there, real, even though everything is strange and different.]
[And different in other ways. Finland has grown since they last saw each other, and not only be getting a bit taller. No, no. She will not stare at Finland's breasts now, that is very inappropriate.]
[Raising her eyes to look up at the other female's face, and then reaches out tentatively to thread her fingers through Finland's hair, trying to calm her down. It's like petting her head, but a bit longer.]
I guess I did, didn't I? Though I'm still smaller than you.
[She smiles lightly.]
It's a little strange. Back then I always thought you were really tall and now you're.... still tall, but it feels kind of cool to be closer to you in height! [There's still a fairly large height difference, but oh well!]
[Was what she said wrong? Should she have phrased it differently? But it is true, very true, one of the first things that she thinks every time she sees her wife, every time she watches her bustle about or play with the dog or...
He face tenses visibly, her shoulders growing a bit harder and her hand drops, but when she finally registers the smile, she starts to relax slightly. Maybe it wasn't so wrong after all.
But then why Finland's vocal reaction? Should she announce it next time? Something like "I'll compliment you now" or "I'll make a remark about your looks now"? But... that would be even stranger, wouldn't it?
...Just standing here while she things, and then she will keep staring because FInland with that smile on her lips is just incredibly cute and she'd like to watch her forever.]
Swe? Did something happen?

This may be a silly question, but what year is it?

[Okay maybe she's looking at them. Only a bit. Who knew they would still grow larger?]
