The elements that Marigold gave me just screamed comedy! It was she who gave me Naked Pervinca and all of those walnuts to begin with. I figured Pippin would be torn between his own embarrassment and his need to protect his sister in this one. Glad it gave you a laugh.

Oh my! I can't stop giggling about this one! Only sisters (and I speak from experience, I happen to have two of my own!) could argue for so long and risk anything and everything for that argument! I did love the way you portrayed the sisters and their different personalities. I also loved that Pippin was still willing to defend Pervinca's honor, even against Merry. I just can't quit laughing! I think Pippin declaring he had gone blind was the most funny! :) Thank you for such fun!

Oh my gosh. LOL--will Pippin ever recover from such a sight? Three angry sisters (possibly hormonal at the time!) fighting to the death, or at least, clothing over a few sacks of walnuts. Only lasses would do that, lol. I do enjoy the interaction between the cousins!

Thank you! I think it will take Pippin a while to get over this particular experience with Pervinca but at some point I am sure he'll get over it. LOL
I do think Merry enjoyed it though. Thanks for reading!

Oh, golly GW, you've done it again! This was absolutely priceless! But I think what I loved the most was Pippin yelling at his sister and sounding just like his father! *THAT* was worth every bit of it!

I also loved the way Pimpernel reacted--probably *both* her sisters were mad at *her*!

You know, I'd love to see some sort of follow-up to this where Pearl *does* get bested at something by her younger sisters...

And you know, *your* Pippin should thank his lucky stars that it wasn't Lobelia he saw naked!

So glad you enjoyed it. I was very pleased with the elements that Marigold gave me. Being given Naked Pervinca just sort of set the tone for this one. I do think that Pippin had it in him to take charge once he returned from the Quest but I think that he wasn't aware of it in the beginning and his sisters certainly wouldn't have been expecting it! LOL

Pimpernel was caught in the middle but I do think she managed to survive it all. As to Pearl getting bested, that little bunny just might turn up in my garden in the future!

I think Pip is very lucky to have missed a naked Lobelia. I read somewhere that Lobelia was not at all a pretty sight. (wink)

"Nothing in its right mind would attack Vince

I love that. And this...

"In a month or so everything should straighten itself out and everyone concerned should return to normal, or at least what passes as normal for them."

*snorts and guffaws*

After growing up with her, I do think that Pippin actually believed that nothing in its right mind would have the nerve to attack his sister. LOL

Glad you enjoyed this!
