"Would you be implying that my head is overly swollen and needs to be beaten back to earth?" he inquired in reply. "I suppose losing to my younger brother - or sister - would do that."

Willow replied by blowing Peter a kiss. Edmund wouldn't be getting one of those.

Nonetheless, Edmund did the polite thing and courteously saluted her as well.
