33 Apocalypse Ave, Sunday afternoon

[existencemisspent]

Eliot was very glad to still be his normal adult self this weekend, considering that his child self had not yet been properly Eliot.

Margo, on the other hand, had clearly been Margo through and through since birth.

"You're not doing it right," she said imperiously. "You have to hold your pinkie out like this!" She demonstrated with the little tea set that Eliot had turned their normal sized tea set into for the weekend.

"Ah, you're right, darling," Eliot said with supreme dignity. "My apologies." He held his pinkie out, receiving an approving nod. "And would your majesty like another tea cake?"

Tiny Margo was adorable, and had Eliot wrapped tightly around her little finger. And neither of them would let the other forget it when she was back to her full-sized self again.

[Margo modded with permission! Mostly for Her Majesty, but can be open as well. Standard slow play disclaimers apply.]

"Well, what does your daddy say, then?"

“That I’m ‘sertive ’cause I say what I want and some people are gonna be weird about it but I shouldn’t care,” Margo said primly. “Only girls care about what other people think.”

[existencemisspent]

“Ah. And being a girl is . . . bad?”

[not_a_goddamn_princess]

“They only care about ponies. And hair.”

“Hmmm. There must not be very many girls in the world, then.”

[not_a_goddamn_princess]

“No, there’s lots,” Margo said, and shoved another chunk of sandwich in her mouth.

"And yet, I don't think I've met a single one." Eliot sipped his tea. "How strange."

[not_a_goddamn_princess]

Margo chewed loudly. “Maybe you don’t get out much.”

[existencemisspent]

"I suppose I must not. I thought I had, but if you're the authority on girls. . . ."

[not_a_goddamn_princess]

“I am,” Margo said, nodding. “I want another strawberry.”

"Do you?" Eliot asked blithely. "That must be very frustrating for you."

Look, he could be wrapped around her little finger and also tease her a little at the same time.

Margo tilted her head and looked at him expectantly.

Eliot blinked innocently back and her and nibbled on a cucumber sandwich.
