(Minutes later, Peabody estate)
Leaving Estelle to park the car, Helena let herself in, her mind busy with plans for the afternoon. She was looking forward to spending some time alone with her sister. It had been so long since they had had time to themselves. Mostly because of her, she knew, as she’d been so preoccupied with Bette (during Bette Hours) and with thoughts of Bette (during Off-Bette Hours). She indulged herself in another little happy sigh as she made her way to the plush living room. Maybe I could fix us some drinks and we could sit in… she stopped short. They had a visitor
“Well, hello there” drawled the figure seated comfortably in the armchair “May I know which daughter I have the pleasure of speaking to right now?”
Helena sighed wearily and leaned against the doorjamb. “Well mother, if the daughter you see in front of you is not running towards you shrieking ‘mummy’, I think it’s fair to say that its Helena”
On cue, there came a loud exclamation “Mummy!” as Estelle entered the room and hurried to her mother for a hug.
“As I was saying…” smirked Helena.
Peggy rolled her eyes at Helena as she embraced her other daughter. “How are you, my dear?” The Ultimate Personality Swapper, her late husband used to call her. The girls’ father had always teased her about the way her presence seemed to make Estelle warmer and Helena colder. Very much the opposite of what they were really like, among other people.
“Very well, thank you, Mummy. You look well” replied Estelle affectionately. She stepped back from her mother and looked at Helena with a sigh. Helena had not budged from the spot she stood in, making no move to greet their mother. She saw that her mother, too, had noticed it and the usual gleam in her eyes was now tinged with sadness. Estelle nudged her mother lightly. They both knew who had to make the first move.
Peggy thought to herself sadly, what wrongs I’ve done by you, Helena. Will you ever forgive me for neglecting you so? and stood to go and greet Helena. No sooner had she taken two steps, she saw Helena move towards her.

OMG I can’t believe I’m first. Glad to see you found the strength to write an dpost this lovely wtory again dear vvitchy. I liked it very much as always and enjoyed the convo between Mrs P and her daughters. i really hope she and helena will get passed their differences and have a healthy mother daughter relationship.As to answer your question I would say Estelle would bring Tina but I guess it will be too obvious so i’m going for Alice?? Don’t leave us hanging too long sweetie thx
i think estelle will try to bring tina…. really great update! thanks! pls. post soon!
can’t get nothing past peggy at all can you, love that woman not only is she hilarious but she gave birth to two hot daughters in this fic. who will estelle bring to dinner?? hmmm?? well i think it depends if your feeling soppy, if you are then it’ll be tina, one big happy family round a dinner table but if your feeling comical it’ll be alice but then again i could be completely of you do something really really unexpected and have her bring jenny or dare i say moira/max i dont think anyone would see that one coming (or want to but anywayyy)love this story pps
Bring Shane! She’s cool. Or Kit. Kidding, but I always think that meeting ex girlfriends with your current date would be TOO weird. Yet nothing is TOO weird for ya? Haaaa. Great job V, you’re the best! The best! The best! “too easy…” shakes head. Do continue! -waves the pom-pom around-
i sure as hell hope it isn’t tina…dang-it!!! alice would be so much funnier…wonderful update, as usual..
I was gonna say the same thing Belena said. I love Peggy…
I love this story! Funny, sweet, dramatic… :D I think perhaps Estelle would want to bring Tina but I don’t know whether Tina would want to go with her. Hmm..
Ok, I’ve just read all of these! I can’t believe I left them for so long to catch up!!! I have to say I like Peggy in this one. Your portrayal of her on the show is fantastic! And I also really like the contrast between Estelle and Helena! Some brilliant writing again babe ;)
Oops…two times lightning, first time must be lightness sorry.
Another great chapter vvitch, loved the interaction between the sisters and also between the three of them. Great way of portraying those awkward feelings between Peggy and Helena, I recognize those feeling very well. You’re a great writer, you combine seriousness with lightning to lightning the mood, I admire that. Well the question I guess Alice is the best date choice for Estelle. Keep doing the good work, I loved it.
Great writing Master V. You can certainly feel the difference between Helena and Estelle. She why do H and E have such a different opinion of their Mum? Please elaborate…Oh I think it will be Tina..Should be interesting to see B&T interact with Belena and Testelle interactions….Does Tina know about the twins yet? Will have to reread
*dancing and smiling* So Peggy knew, huh? How you are able to give “the face of Helena” two distinct voices, add in Peggy…have us feel the changes in their personalities (in her presence) and make it believable is beyond me. Even the familial struggles and desire for repair ring true in what is starting to have the feel of a dramedy (spelling) This is really beautifully written. Who shall E bring? I agree Al would be fun in this mix and yeah Tina is expected but I think, it would be more challenging and complex.
Great chapter once again, vvitch! Poignant how Peggy tried to get through to Helena without her knowing she knew of the switch, and I just love how these three banter! I figure Estelle will want to bring Tina, but yeah–will she come? And I also don’t remember if Tina knows yet about the twins! Let us know soon!
ohh, my vicky, I love your fic soo much, it’s such a nice surprise when I see a new chapter! I love this “triangle” between Peggy and her two daughters, it’s so funny and so much add to the characters, to both of them. For so much I love Helena and her love for Bette, I cannot but miss the fierce Estelle and I so much can’t wait to read about the dinner with Peggy and Estelle and Bette at the same table! To answer your question, of course Estelle should bring Tina!!! That would be fantastic to read… please, pretty please, Tina is the one very reason (other than Helena) Estelle decided to stay. She can’t but bring her!
This is great! I loved the interations between Peggy and her daughters. Now..I think Estelle should bring…Alice! HAHAHAHAHHAHAHAHA Can’t wait for the next chappy!
This is so funny, Helena will bring Bette and Estelle will bring Tina, and this will give Peggy a big shock lol. Ok post soon please, thanks!
