"I don't get it," Hugo complains, turning away from the bathroom mirror. "What's there to examine here?"

"Our eyes," answers James impatiently. "They're, like, two different shades of blue, even though we both got them from Granddad Arthur! How does that work?"

Hugo eyes his cousin curiously. "Do you have some sort of eye fetish?"

"No!" James snaps. "Just - why are yours light blue? Mine are really dark!"

"Is it really important?" Hugo asks in annoyance. "Why does it make a difference?"

"I want to know!" James insists, glowering at his younger cousin.

Hugo edges away. "You're a little crazy, you know that?"

James smirks at him in a decidedly James-like way. "Thanks."

Hugo blinks his light blue eyes up at his older cousin - and runs for it.
