Helion is always delighted when he manages to make someone laugh, it makes him feel as though he is doing something right. Makes him feel like the sun is warm on his golden skin even as it is setting and slipping beneath the horizon. And this feeling is no less true for anyone else than it is for his twin. His own smile is bright and unreserved when she clarifies what he had just asked her. “Yeah hatched! I met a girl who hatched but I think she meant more like a fish.”
Moira had been rather aquatic, after all. Though when he thinks of fish hatching, he is still thinking of bird-eggs - just floating in the water like little boats.
Which sounds incredibly fun now that he thinks about it and he wishes he could find an egg big enough to carry him down the river. If they found two eggs big enough, he and Cressida could even race them.
But before he can let that rather fantastic idea run away with his attention he focuses on the matter at hand - wanting to know if his sister had paid any more attention to these matters than he had. “So mom and dad don’t have shiny silver and gold egg pieces hidden away somewhere? We probably would’ve been like birds instead of fish.” He unfurls his golden wings just enough to nudge her, highlighting his rather obvious point as his grin grows a little further.
